CHAPTER 116

At 11 o'clock the next night, Han Dong and Yu Ming entered the movie theater as scheduled. Before the movie started Han Dong looked down at the list of upcoming movies and discovered that there are truly many movies released during this time and yet the schedule lineup for《Tear》is still at the top of the rank.

Nowadays the sum of movie marketing techniques is not as good as the "film lineup frequency", especially in the olden days when the high lineup frequency had become one of the movie's powerful publicity methods.

《Tear》's first cycle* schedule lineup has reached 46%, which implies that the box office is guaranteed even if public opinion falls short.

(Note is at the end because it's long)

After the ticket is examined Han Dong and Yu Ming strolled in the VIP section. It may seem that the cloud is light and the wind is gentle but in fact everyone is holding their breath.

(Cloud is light and the wind is gentle = used to describe an attitude that is free from hardship; at ease and calm; uncaring)

The lights were turned off and the film officially began.

The opening title is a considerably artistic scene, ten people were standing between two parallel mirrors, and there are multiple infinite spaces that appeared inside these mirror. Just like a corridor that contains innumerable corridors inside it.

This scene hints at Droste Effect, which was included in the promotional teasers of the film.

Every film that pulls in all kinds of established theorem will instantly become high-end and classy; moreover, it  would  be considered immediately as a high IQ film if there is room for the audience to analyze. Domestic movies are still blank when it comes to this area.

The character Li Shang is playing in the movie is called Tang Jing, a micro-film amateur who is good at shooting horror themes, someoneone who likes making his own horror props.

(Hmmm... sounds familiar?)

Holding his phone on top of the steel rod, Tang Jing who was watching a videon saw a beautiful woman suddenly poked her head over.

"What are you watching?"

Tang Jing lifted the cellphone he was holding and turned it in front of her, "I self-directed and self-acted a horror micro-film, do you want to watch it together?"

The beautiful woman has yet to issue a response when the surrounding people immediately dispersed in fright.

Tang Jing was bewildered. When he looked back at his cellphones screen, he discovered that the scene at this moment was him using a bloody wig to strangle his own neck.

Out of expectation the beauty didn't seem afraid, she even leaned in to have a closer look.

It was in this way that these two people got to know each other.

The beautiful woman saw that Tang Jing's bag was open so she hurriedly reminded him: "There are many types of people mixed in the subway, so you better close your bag."

However, it mysteriously opened up again a moment after he zipped the bag. The camera focused its shot inside the bag filled with Tang Jing's self-made horror props, among which was a bloody wig.

The two people got out at the same station. Before separating, Tang Jing asked: "What's your name?"

The beautiful woman replied: My name is Zhang Xiaoning."

"Can you tell me your number?" Tang Jing boldly requested.

Zhang Xiaoning smiled and nodded. She directly held Tang Jing's cellphone and entered her number before leaving.
