Chapter 609 Premiere
Chang'an, the ancient capital of Six Dynasties.

The streets at night are already bustling with traffic, and many people go out with their families to welcome the upcoming 70th anniversary of the National Day.

Among them, the various cinema chains in Chang'an are undoubtedly one of the largest gathering places for people. A number of seeded players in the National Day period will premiere simultaneously tonight, and all major cinemas have been packed with people since the afternoon.

The three seeded players chose different locations for their premieres. "Inheritance" was assigned to Huaqing Cinema, which is one of the most well-known flagship cinemas in the local area. In terms of cinema conditions alone, it is even the best among the three seeds.

The reason why this cinema was able to receive such treatment was actually due to Zhou Hao's help - the story unit he filmed was about aerospace, and the original site of this cinema was very close to the original site of the Sixth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation.

This place has now been transformed into a space museum, and now combined with movies, it can form a complete movie-watching + tour package.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the audience who had grabbed the premiere tickets began to enter the venue early. Among them were many family members of aerospace practitioners, and they were all qualified to watch the movie for free.

As for the remaining self-paying audiences, all of them have to use their own connections to get the premiere ticket.

And generally, those who come here bring their families with them. Since it is "Inheritance", of course they want to bring their children to watch it together.

However, not all children like this kind of main theme movie. Liu Miaomiao, who just entered the first year of high school this year, is one of them.

"Dad, I don't like watching this kind of stuff, why did you have to drag me here?" Liu Miaomiao said with a depressed look, "There's Zhang Yuning's online birthday party tonight, I've been waiting for a long time!"

Father Liu was stunned for a moment, "Who is Zhang Yuning?"

"A star!" Liu Miaomiao's eyes lit up. "A young and handsome guy who has just risen this year. He can sing, dance, and rap. He is also very good at acting. He is very popular..."

"Another effeminate guy who is neither male nor female?" Liu's father frowned and said unhappily, "Don't chase after stars like this. History has proven countless times that once men in a country start to wear makeup and jewelry, that country is basically finished."

"Tsk, you're just exaggerating." Liu Miaomiao sneered, "I'm just chasing a star, why do you make it sound like I'm harming the country and the people?"

"We can learn a lot from history, but you are not interested." Father Liu shook his head and said, "Let's go, just think of it as watching a movie with Dad, okay?"

Liu Miaomiao pouted, and the boss followed her into the central hall unwillingly.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the main creators lined up to go on stage, and warm applause broke out in the audience.

The emcee began to ask questions one by one to build momentum for the premiere.

When the microphone was handed to Zhou Hao, he did not speak as eloquently as the three great directors did, but only said two brief sentences.

“There has never been a peaceful time, it’s just that someone is carrying the burden for us.”

"Our ancestors have carried us through the storm for seventy years. Now it is our turn to shoulder this heavy burden."

These two simple and clear sentences drew thunderous applause from the audience, and even Liu Miaomiao took the initiative to applaud for the first time.

It’s not that I think what Zhou Hao said was great, it’s simply because he spoke so little.

She hated those long-winded speeches the most. In a second, they reminded him of the school dean.

"Dad has never been against you chasing stars." Father Liu took the opportunity to say, "But you should at least chase after some quality stars. Look at this Zhou Hao, isn't he pretty good? He's talented and has a positive outlook, and he never does those messy things."

Liu Miaomiao curled her lips secretly and said, "Then why don't you let him come out and do more business!"

How can we catch up with him when he hides behind the scenes every day?

After half an hour, the ceremony officially ended, the lights on the scene went out, and the premiere officially began.

Zhou Hao and Su Man sat in the second row of the audience and watched the premiere with everyone else. The first unit of the film was called "Blood and Fire".

As the name suggests, the story takes place at a time when the Chinese nation is facing the crisis of national extinction, and the martyrs fight hard in blood and fire to prolong the life of the country and nation.

The protagonist of the unit is an ordinary soldier who died heroically in order to protect his homeland. His child picked up the gun beside his body and also joined the battle to save the country.

The entire film is nearly 40 minutes long, and is almost entirely filled with exciting battle scenes, interspersed with some father-son interactions...

Mr. Liu watched the film with great interest, and kept expressing his admiration for the progress of China's film industry, saying that various special effects are almost catching up with the world's advanced level.

But Liu Miaomiao felt drowsy and bored while watching. She was really bored.

She really has no interest in this kind of fighting and killing.

They were all dirty and disgusting.

The interaction between father and son is so awkward, it makes people scratch their toes.

Zhou Hao, who was sitting in the second row, couldn't help but sigh secretly.

To be honest, this leading unit is really average, and is basically the same as some mainstream films on Earth - the whole scene is booming, and then all kinds of blood and sacrifice depict the bravery and heroism of the soldiers, almost forcing you to cry.

As a popcorn movie, there is nothing wrong with this shooting method, but as a mainstream film, there is actually a fatal problem - there is only surface but no core.

Why do warriors fight?

Why aren't they afraid of sacrifice?
For what belief do they continue to fight?
No, none of them.

Behind the gorgeous war special effects is an empty core. Expecting this kind of movie to inspire young people's patriotism may sometimes backfire.

But, the director of this film is a big shot in the circle... at least not someone that Zhou Hao can comment on sharply now, so he can only think about it in his mind.

He glanced secretly at Su Man beside him. She was sitting upright, but there was obviously a bit of listlessness in her eyes.

It was obvious that she wasn't too keen on the film.

Then the second unit is called "Rebirth".

The protagonist of the unit was a prostitute before liberation. After liberation, she was reformed and became a barefoot doctor.

From being despised and insulted to being accepted by her neighbors, and finally becoming a "living Bodhisattva" passed down by word of mouth in the neighborhood, this poor woman, like Hua Xia, has been reborn.

This female doctor later opened a free night school to teach people how to read and write and impart medical knowledge. Together with her students, she made an indelible contribution to the education, literacy and medical care of her hometown...

In terms of quality alone, this unit is actually better than the first unit. It is much more solid than the first unit "Blood and Fire" from the outside to the inside.

But there is no way, the director is not as famous as others, so he can only be ranked second.

However, Liu Miaomiao still had no interest in such stories and almost fell asleep while reading them.

But Zhou Hao in the front row had already perked up.

Because his time is coming!
