The diva and I cross each other

Penguin was busy negotiating with the bank, while Luo Ming went to several car and battery factories with Lin Shuwen after her concert.

Due to the problem of technical patents, it is unlikely that domestic gasoline vehicles will catch up, and the leaders do not want to be harvested by patents in this area, so they have already started planning for new energy vehicles.

The leading domestic automobile companies will naturally respond to the policies from above, and new energy vehicles that use electricity and hydrogen as their main energy sources are under development.

Luo Ming visited several car manufacturers, all of which were investing in research on both types of energy. However, these manufacturers generally preferred electric vehicles because hydrogen energy was too unstable compared to electric energy, and few manufacturers were willing to invest large amounts in this area.

After a round, Luo Ming had a general idea in his mind. He said to Lin Shuwen, "Wenwen, do you think our company's first car should be a sedan? Or an SUV?"

"SUV!" Lin Shuwen said after thinking for a while.

"why?"

"The car is too small. It's enough for a small home, but not for a larger home."

“You are considering it from the perspective of space!”

"Well, what about you? What type of car do you want to develop?" Lin Shuwen asked back.

"I also prefer SUVs, but the reason I choose SUVs is that the driving experience is better. The driving position of this type of car is usually higher than that of a sedan, which provides the driver with a better view and a more comfortable driving experience."

“So you’re starting from the user experience?”

Luo Ming nodded.

The next day, it was a new week. Luo Ming and Lin Shuwen were in a state of mutual interpenetration. This week, Lin Shuwen's concert was going to be held in Spring City. Luo Ming did not go with her and let Lin Shuwen, who was performing the male number, take a plane back to Shanghai.

After all, Luo Ming still needs to communicate more with Rong Mu about building the car.

Before I knew it, half a month had passed and it was already July, the summer vacation season again.

Last year's summer blockbuster "The Return of the Great Sage" produced by Zhuoguang Entertainment was a huge success and directly opened up a new future for Chinese animated films.

Many animators who were on the verge of bankruptcy received investment because of "The Return of the Great Sage", so there are as many as three animated films in this summer's season.

The first one is naturally "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" in the easter egg of "The Return of the Great Sage". This movie can be said to be highly anticipated by fans, and the pre-sale box office has exceeded 100 million before it was released.

The second is an animated racing film called "Fuel". This film is said to be based on a professional racing driver as the protagonist.

The last one is "The Great Adventure of the Twelve Zodiac Signs", which is more targeted at young children.

Speaking of animation, there is one thing worth mentioning, that is, the animation "K-ON!" dubbed by Aurora will be broadcast as a new animation on July 7th.

The island country's new anime are released in January, April, July and October every year. Luo Ming is not sure whether this cartoon can replicate the glory of its predecessor "K-ON!", but the overall performance will definitely not be bad.

After all, the money has been spent, the songs are well prepared, and the overall viewing experience is very comfortable. Luo Ming is still looking forward to the results of this animation.

If the results are good, Luo Ming will make additional investments in this area.

If the results are not good enough, Luo Ming will not try to do both China and Japan, but let Sunny Studio independently produce the animated film "Your Name".

On July 7, "Ne Zha" was officially released. Luo Ming did not go to the cinema to watch this movie this time, mainly because Lin Shuwen was not there. He has been busy with the research and development of autonomous driving technology recently and has no time to watch it.

As the company got on track, Rong Mu had more free time. Wen Wan happened to be free too, so the two went to the cinema to watch "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" together.

Before leaving, Rong Mu called Luo Ming by the way, but Luo Ming naturally refused. He didn't want to be a light bulb. Besides, Luo Ming had absolute confidence in "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World".

In the previous life, many people knew that the box office of "Ne Zha" was amazing, reaching 50.36 billion.

After its release in 2019, it ranked second in film history, second only to "Wolf Warrior 2". It was not until 2021 that the box office of "Ne Zha" was surpassed by "Changjin Lake" and "Hello, Li Huanying", ranking fourth in film history. "

However, many people only know the final box office data, but they don’t know how low the average ticket price was to achieve a box office of 50 billion!

As far as Luo Ming knows, the average ticket price for "Ne Zha" is only 35.7 yuan. Looking at the top ten movies in the Chinese film history box office list, its average ticket price is the lowest, which is more than ten yuan lower than the movie in 21.

Luo Ming remembered that in his previous life, starting from 2014, the price of watching a movie was generally more than 30 yuan, and then it kept getting higher and higher.

In just two years, by 2016, a movie ticket in some major cities could easily cost 40 yuan.

Later, the price of a movie ticket remained at around 45 yuan. In small places, it was cheaper, but it was still more than 35 yuan. In 2019, the price of movie tickets rose even more.

The average price of movie tickets nationwide during the 2021 Spring Festival is 55.73 yuan, and this is for the most ordinary showtimes. Not to mention the giant screen and IMAX shows, where prices of more than one hundred or two hundred yuan are common.

In this market environment, the price of 35.7 yuan for a movie ticket for "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" is really a conscience sale.

This time, the price of "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" is lower than other summer movies on the market, only 32 yuan per ticket, which is several yuan lower than other popular movies released in the same period.

This is also a marketing method. There are three movies in the summer season this year. Even if Nezha has the endorsement of "The Return of the Great Sage", it may not be stable, so saving a few dollars can attract more customers. Anyway, Zhuoguang Technology doesn't need such a small amount of money.

When Rong Mu and Wen Wan arrived at the Zhuoguang Cinema, they happened to catch the ticket check for Nezha's latest show.

Rong Mu originally planned to watch the movie in the VIP theater, but Wen Wan thought it was too much to watch the movie in an ordinary theater, so Rong Mu had no choice but to do as Wen Wan suggested.

The two lined up to enter the theater, and just as they sat down, the lights in the theater dimmed, and trailers for other movies were already playing on the screen.

Before the official content of the movie began, Rong Mu first recalled his impression of Nezha.

When talking about Nezha, Rong Mu would think of the Hun Tian Ling, the Fenghuo Lun, etc., and would also think of his three heads and six arms, his master Taiyi Zhenren, and Nezha's chaos in the sea, pulling out the tendons and skinning Ao Bing, and the subsequent flooding of Chentangguan.

The character of Nezha has always been quite full in everyone's minds.

As for the mythological character Nezha, no matter how his image changes, he always has a label of rebellion. He is too unorthodox and always does things out of the ordinary.

Because of the label of rebellion, Nezha usually plays the role of "heavenly traitor" in many works.

Wherever there is a disturbance in Heaven, there will be the active figure of Nezha, highlighting that no matter who is causing trouble in Heaven, Nezha will always help.

Wen Wan's impression of Nezha mainly comes from the movie "Nezha Conquers the Dragon King" which she watched when she was a child.

The image of Nezha in this movie gave Wen Wan a great shock. She was shocked by Nezha's suicide. For a child, this kind of act of cutting off flesh and bones and returning them to his parents was too shocking!
In addition, Wen Songyue had been divorced from Wen Wan's mother for two years at that time. Wen Wan's mother put all her love and hatred for Wen Songyue on Wen Wan. Wen Wan was overwhelmed by the pressure from her mother. When she saw Nezha cutting off his bones to return to his father and cutting off his flesh to return to his mother, Wen Wan felt a little envious.

In sharp contrast to Nezha is Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King. This mythological character is really unlikable.

In most works, this person is depicted holding a pagoda in one hand, looking majestic and dignified, but his behavior is annoying.

"Since the theme is Nezha, the villain must be Longgong. I guess Li Jing will also be a hateful character." Rong Mu murmured to himself.

Wen Wan also agreed with this.

After the trailers of various movies ended, the dragon symbol appeared and Nezha's story officially began.

"After thousands of years of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, a Hun Yuan Pearl was born. It greedily absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon, and its power continued to grow. However, the spiritual energy it absorbed was too mixed, with immortal energy and demonic energy intertwined, and it could not distinguish between good and evil. Master, send me and my junior brother to subdue it."

Wen Wan was a little puzzled when she heard this. She whispered to Rong Mu, "Mu Mu, why does your voice have an accent? And you speak fluent Trump accent."

"This was specially arranged by Er Ming. He said it would better subvert the fixed image of mythological characters in the minds of the audience." Rong Mu explained.

As soon as Rong Mu finished speaking, a fat version of Taiyi Zhenren riding a pig appeared on the screen. He made a stunning appearance speaking in Trump's accent.

As for the junior brother he mentioned, he is one of the classic villains in the Fengshen series - Shen Gongbao.

The next second, Shen Gongbao spoke. His voice was extremely deep and magnetic, and even had its own reverberation: "Hunyuanzhu, you can't fly away today!"

The voice acting of Shen Gongbao can be described as majestic and cold - but unfortunately he is a stutterer.

"Puchi~" The strong contrast made Wen Wan unable to hold back and laughed out loud.

Wen Wan now understood what Rong Mu meant by subverting the character's image.

I have to say that the two characteristics of Trump and stuttering alone have subverted these two mythical figures, and in a short period of time, the characters have become full, three-dimensional and interesting!
"Junior brother, don't scare him!" Taiyi Zhenren said to Shen Gongbao.

However, Taiyi Zhenren was soon knocked away by a punch from the Hunyuan Pearl, and then the confident Shen Gongbao was also knocked away.

Taiyi Zhenren, whose face was swollen, ran out from the cloud again and shouted angrily: "Oh, you bastard, how dare you ruin my handsome face!"

After saying this, he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Hunyuanzhu. After tying them up, he said with a swollen face and a beaming look of smugness: "You can hit me! You can hit me!" (End of this chapter)
