KEEP WAITING FOR YOU - Season 36 Episode 46

After all, this software was more for the general public and to provide a real-time update.

The data of big corporations like the Han Corporation would not be updated in real-time, but it was more detailed and well-rounded.

Right now, the showtime scheduling of the other cinemas had already been released.

But the Han Corporation had not yet announced their showtime schedules.

“As expected, they scheduled very few showtimes for ‘Dimensions’,” said Lu Man, “That way, even if the audience wants to buy tickets and watch it, with limited theater halls, the box office sales won’t be that high.”

“Besides, they have given good showtimes to “Lost Detective’ and ‘Sky Mechanical City’. The showtimes of ‘Dimensions’ are either very early or very late, not to mention a good theater hall,” said Lu Man, sneering.

“They didn’t even give ‘Dimensions’ a single IMAX hall, all of them are just normal 3D halls,” said Lu Man coldly, “However, ‘Lost Detective is just a normal 2D movie, and ‘Sky Mechanical City’ is a fake 3D that was converted in the late stages, there’s no need to use IMAX camera to shoot a full frame movie. It’s such a waste to use all the IMAX halls.”

Old Mr. Han was unhappy when he heard this. “These people actually dared to bully Zhuofeng? Do they really think that our Han Family has nobody?”

Old Mr. Han looked at Han Zhuoli and Han Zhuoling with dissatisfaction. “Both of you, when are you buying these companies?”

Han Zhuoling was speechless. “…”

Han Zhuoli was dumbfounded.

Could they just buy those companies whenever?

“Anyway, I don’t care!” said Old Mr. Han, “They dare to bully our family, it’s not like we don’t have our own cinema! Our cinema will fight all three of them! Schedule all the showtimes for Zhuofeng’s movie, as many as possible! If the netizens want to reprimand us about it, let them do it! What’s wrong with putting out our own child’s movie?”

“Yeah,” said Old Mrs. Han, “Never mind if Zhuofeng shot a bad film, we can’t just forcefully schedule the showtimes for him. However, Zhuofeng clearly shot a good film. Let’s schedule all the showtimes for Zhuofeng, for the rest, just give them one showtime per day as a courtesy.”

Han Zhuoling could not hold back his laughter. He said, “We’ve already arranged the showtime schedule. Naturally, Zhuofeng’s film is the first. It’s just that when there’s a solution to avoid the criticism of the netizens, we can’t go and look for criticisms, right?”

“So, we’re also waiting,” said Han Zhuoling.

“Waiting for what?” asked Old Mrs. Han, confused.

“Waiting for the showtime schedules of the other cinemas,” said Lu Man, smiling.

“Now, we can announce our showtime schedule,” said Lu Man.

Han Zhuoli, the Han Corporation’s CEO, posted on Weibo the showtime schedule of the Han Corporation’s cinemas.

The Han Corporation’s cinema app and the Han Corporation’s ticket channel on various big ticketing websites were all activated at the same time.

On Weibo, Han Zhuofeng was very firm. “How is ‘Dimensions’? The audience who watched it gave clear answers. However, other cinemas still reduced the showtimes of ‘Dimensions’ to such an extent. ‘Dimensions’ was well-made and is the first production of our family’s little brother. No matter what, the Han Corporation has to support it.”

There were two pictures below, one was the showtime schedule of ‘Dimensions’ given by other cinemas.

‘Dimensions’ showtime rate could not even beat the showtime rate of those two animated films for children.

And the other picture was the showtime schedule of the Han Corporation’s cinema…

Since the other cinemas reduced ‘Dimensions’ showtime to such an extent, then the Han Corporation increased ‘Dimensions’ showtime themselves.

As such, ‘Dimensions’ showtimes took eighty-three percent of all showtimes.

The rest were given to other movies.

Those two animated films had the same showtime as the original showtime schedule.

As for ‘New Year’s Eve’, its showtime schedule was similar to other cinemas as well. Other than ‘Dimensions,’ it was the second in rank in terms of showtime.

The rest were divided between ‘Lost Detective’ and ‘Sky Mechanical City’.

There was only one percent of showtimes left for those two movies.

Right after this, Han Zhuoling also started sharing posts.

The various actors in the movie also publicized movie articles.

Other than Lu Man and Yan Zhiqing, the other actors were previously worried.

Looking at the internet, they were afraid that ‘Dimensions’ would be suppressed so much that it would fail.

But now, looking at how firm the Han Corporation was when it came to supporting ‘Dimensions,’ everyone felt at ease.

It was easier to do anything with one’s back against a big tree.

The team of ‘New Year’s Eve’ had no objections.

Anyway, they did not lose anything in terms of the showtime schedule.

The netizens also did not think that the Han Corporation did a bad thing.

They even cheered for the Han Corporation.

“666, Han Zhuoli and Han Zhuoling: If you don’t schedule showtimes for my little brother, then we’ll do it ourselves. Don’t even wish to have a name for your movie in the Han Corporation.”

“I went to investigate the investors of ‘Lost Detective’ and ‘Sky Mechanical City,’ other than the Han Corporation, the companies behind various big cinemas participated. It’s no wonder that they scheduled so many showtimes for these two movies and reduced the showtimes of ‘Dimensions’.”

“The reputation of ‘Dimensions’ is so good, but those cinemas still didn’t schedule showtimes for it, this is unreasonable. I won’t blame the Han Corporation for directly reducing the showtimes of ‘Lost Detective’ and ‘Sky Mechanical City’. An eye for an eye.”

The investors took a look and saw that not a single netizen thought that the Han Corporation was committing jobbery. Suddenly, they felt uneasy.

Immediately, someone directly contacted Han Zhuoli.

At the dining table, Han Zhuoli picked up in front of everyone.

To let everyone hear it clearly, he even turned on the speaker.

The one who called was CEO Wang of United Pictures.

Lu Man was very familiar with him.

Back then, he was screwed over by Lu Man.

Back then, he also tried to go against Lu Man, but he begged for peace when he couldn’t beat Lu Man.

Who could have thought that CEO Wang would not learn from his mistakes?

He still chose to fight before asking for peace.

“CEO Han,” called CEO Wang.

“CEO Wang, happy new year.” Right now, Han Zhuoli had the initiative.

So Han Zhuoli’s tone was a lot easier.

“Hehe, CEO Han, it’s the new year, what can’t we discuss nicely? Why must we make things so ugly?” said CEO Wang.

“Oh? What thing?” said Han Zhuoli, playing dumb.

CEO Wang could hear that he was playing dumb, so he said, “Isn’t the Han Corporation’s showtime schedule for ‘Lost Detective’ and ‘Sky Mechanical City’ too little?”

“CEO Wang, you call here representing yourself or representing the production companies?” asked Han Zhuoli without answering.

CEO Wang paused for a while and said, “Obviously, I’m representing the production companies of those two movies. After discussion, it was decided that I would call you as the representative.”

“It’s also to avoid everyone calling you one by one so that your New Year’s Eve can be peaceful,” said CEO Wang, “Although I didn’t invest in ‘Lost Detective,’ since everyone decided to come forward together, if the team of ‘Lost Detective’ sent someone, they will tell you the same thing, so I’ll just represent all of them to save you time.”
