New Age Artists

Chapter 677: Fun
A village in Dafeng, Yancheng, Jiangsu.

The seventh day of the new year.

Early in the morning.

Yang Chaoyue followed her father to the brigade headquarters, which is the village committee.

In winter, the sun rises late, and it is only slightly light at seven o'clock.

The village radio said yesterday that there would be a movie shown this morning, and it was the popular "The Monkey King".

Yang Chaoyue has been looking forward to it since yesterday.

When they arrived at the brigade headquarters, the father and son were shocked.

They're not the only ones looking forward to it.

"This is a 3 billion box office movie, my goodness."

"37 billion."

"My goodness, how much is that? It's really scary."

The entrance of the brigade was crowded with people, making it impossible to get through.

There was a good movie to watch, so all the men and women, young and old, big girls and little girls in the village gave up their sleep and card playing and came.

Yang Chaoyue was very excited at first, but looking at the crowded crowd, she subconsciously took a step back and said to her father: "How about we do it another time? There are too many people."

"The village chief said that the copy will only stay with us for this morning. If we miss this opportunity, we will miss it again. If we want to go to the city, a ticket will cost fifty yuan!" said an informed lady nearby.

It takes them more than an hour to get to the city, and the round-trip tickets cost money, and the cost of watching a movie is even more expensive.

Now you can watch it at your doorstep, and it’s free!
The key is free!
"Please squeeze in, everyone! Sit down as much as possible, don't stand in the front!"

The village chief and the village accountant shouted: "We will try to make sure everyone can see it. If you can't see it, don't worry, there will be another one."

"I want to see it now."

"I want the Monkey King. They all say this one looks good!"

Father Yang protected his daughter and squeezed into the makeshift screening room.

This used to be the place where the brigade held meetings. There used to be tables and chairs inside, but now they are all empty.

The space that used to accommodate dozens of people is now crowded with people.

The doors and windows were all sealed and it was pitch black. If I hadn't known they were showing a movie, I would have thought they were plotting something.

There were two people dressed as projectionists, busying around with old-fashioned equipment that was from who knows how many years ago. There were also electricians and others working together.

The front bench was occupied, so Father Yang found a small stool for his daughter and squeezed in to sit on the stool himself.

"Come to think of it, there have been movies shown in the village before, but they were all old movies, and they were always shown at night. This is the first time that there is a movie shown at noon or late at night."

Listening to her father and the others chatting, Yang Chaoyue went online and said, "It seems to be a benefit given by Shen Santong, which caused a big sensation online."

An uncle asked, "Chaoyue, do you know Shen Santong?"

Yang Chaoyue smiled shyly: "I know him, but he doesn't know her."

Everyone laughs.

"This is too scary."

Yang Chaoyue felt that the room was full, but someone kept coming in.

In other words, there is no hanging rope, otherwise you need a hanging ticket.

Yang Chaoyue feels like she is on a weekend bus. How many people can fit on a bus depends on how many people there are.

This room is a little bigger than a classroom, but not much bigger. It is packed with people sitting, standing, and squatting.

There was not even a space for one's feet to rest.

The adults were chatting while the children were crying.

The village cadres were yelling something, probably because the place was full and people who hadn't entered yet should not push.

The projectionist just focused on his job and started projecting as soon as the village chief closed the door.

The lights dim.

The scene suddenly became quiet; even the children were stunned by the sudden silence.

No fancy foreplay, just get straight to the point.

Yang Chaoyue discovered that the screen image was actually in color, which was beyond her expectations.

The familiar opening credits of the Locomotive movie appeared, with the chief director Shen Santong appearing first.

Yang Chaoyue pursed her lips, and no one knew what she was thinking.

The occasional noise of the children disappeared as the movie began.

Get them all!

An ink painting unfolded on a simple screen, illuminating the faces of the people in the room.

The sky collapsed and chaos was like ink, the vast wilderness stretched across the universe, and the ancient rocks were like dragon spines.

The abyss is endless, the galaxy is cracking, demonic energy is rising, and billions of pitch-black tentacles are surging.

The scenes of the Monkey King's battles over the past five hundred years flashed by quickly, as he stepped over lava and broke through deep ice.

The golden cudgel was covered with cracks and its golden light flickered.

Magnificent magma gushed out from the bottom of the Demon-Suppressing Monument, and red waves surged to the sky.

A figure lowered his head. The golden phoenix-wing crown had long lost its luster, the crown feathers were broken, the golden chain mail armor was tattered like scales, wisps of black air seeped out from the seams of the armor, and the lotus silk cloud-walking shoes were stained with demonic blood.

"Wow!"

Adults and children in the room exclaimed in unison.

Many people have never seen or even imagined such a scene.

Shocked!

"The Monkey King is so scary."

"This is the devil's appearance." "What a beautiful picture."

As the Monkey King fell into the endless lava, the magma swallowed everything and there was another cry of surprise.

It is not difficult to watch pirated movies, Qvod is very convenient.

But Kuaibo generally doesn’t watch this kind of movies, and watching movies on a screen is a completely different experience.

"The Return of the Great Sage" has only been released for a week, and a clearer pirated copy will take half a month or a month to come out.

What's more, not only do people enjoy the movie, but they also get the pleasure of getting it for free.

Yang Chaoyue also opened her eyes wide, staring at the picture on the screen.

The family in the front row was obviously stunned as well.

The little boy was so stupid that he didn't make any noise or trouble. He just focused on watching the screen.

As the plot developed and the scenes changed, the audience cheered again.

Jiang Liuer, a naughty boy in Chang'an City, idolizes the stigmatized "Great Devil" the Monkey King.

His mischievous appearance brought bursts of laughter.

Public opinion in the city was controlled by the old nobles, who slandered the Great Sage for colluding with the devil to seize power, and the garrison became the target of public criticism.

Jiang Liuer fled to save the girl "Silly Girl" and fell off a cliff on the way.

The scene of stepping on a tree and flying over a cliff stunned everyone, from grandparents to grandchildren, all of whom had their eyes fixed on the screen.

Jiang Liu'er accidentally entered the place where the Monkey King was trapped, and the Monkey King and Jiang Liu'er formed a team.

This started an interesting interaction between the two.

The Monkey King is the white moonlight in the hearts of countless people. It is so funny to see him being humiliated in front of the little devil Jiang Liuer.

No matter how old they were, they all stared at the movie screen as if possessed.

It seems to imprint every frame firmly in my mind.

"Hahaha!"

"Zhu Bajie is so fun!"

Seeing Zhu Ganglie trying to transform into Roaring Sky Dog but turning into a cat instead and being dragged away by Jiang Liuer, bursts of laughter rang out.

At the end.

The familiar melody sounded more than once, and everyone held their breath.

In the sea of ​​​​mind, the Great Sage found himself again. When the Great Sage tore apart the shackles, the lava armor wrapped in flames soared into the sky, and the golden hoop crushed the evil fog in the sky, the room seemed to be on fire.

"Crash!"

The audience couldn't help but applaud.

Lava reshapes armor and rage evolves cloak.

The Great Sage stepped on the void, flames gushed out, lava turned into chain mail, a golden crown with phoenix wings suddenly appeared, and the golden hoop revealed its true gilded appearance.

Thunderous applause!

More intense!
Children watch the Monkey King, while older people see more.

If before this, the focus of the character was on Jiang Liuer, now it has completely shifted to the Monkey King, and Stepping into the Sky gives the movie a whole new meaning.

The audience seemed to have experienced a spiritual baptism, and many older people felt that it was even more exciting than watching "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" back then!

"Look again! Look again!"

I don't know who started shouting, but the whole room wanted to watch it again.

Yang Chaoyue also shouted excitedly.

"Fight? Fight!"

The doll jumped up and imitated the Monkey King in swinging his stick, shouting "The Lone Hero".

Many children kept saying: "I want to watch it again, it's so good, I like the Monkey King, I like Jiang Liuer, this is what the Monkey King looks like in my dreams!"

Then I heard the village chief yelling: "Get out! Get out now! Don't delay the next game!"

The villagers waiting outside urged: "Those inside, get out quickly, don't waste time."

The village chief and the village cadres started out by persuading people, but then ended up scolding them.

Yang Chaoyue couldn't be so shameless as to stay there, so she had to follow her father out reluctantly.

There were also some who were shameless and came up to the village and said, "We are all relatives."

The village chief was annoyed. So many people were watching him. "Don't mention our family. Even if you are my father, you can't do that! Get out! Leave after you're done!"

The women's director asked, "Can't we put more at the airport?"

The village accountant said, "How can there be so many copies? Several villages nearby share one copy. This village fought hard to get it, so we can be the first to see it! The neighboring village is waiting!"

The village said: "If you don't like it today, there is still tomorrow, don't worry."

Yang Chaoyue followed her father out of the brigade headquarters and saw several boys singing "The Lone Brave Man".

Some of them found wooden sticks and danced vigorously.

Everyone was excited.

A good movie is definitely a spiritual feast, not to mention it’s free, which makes people feel even happier.

"very nice."

Yang Chaoyue temporarily forgot her worries, forgot her mother who ran away, and forgot the terrible situation that she might have to drop out of school and work in the first half of the year.

Father Yang also smiled.

No matter how life is, we should still be happy during the New Year.

Starting from the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the red cloak of the Monkey King has been fluttering not only in big cities, but also in first-, second-, third- and fourth-tier cities, as well as in fourth- and fifth-tier cities, small towns and villages.

The excitement caused by "The Return of the Great Sage" has just begun!
