Time passed quickly, and it was October 1st.

In the early morning, although it was not a working day, many people went out on the first day of the short holiday, especially in a big city like Huahai, which is the destination of many tourists. There were hustle and bustle everywhere.

Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei, who had just finished their work, had a day off, but with their popularity, it was unlikely that they would go out to walk the streets casually at this time. Maybe they would be recognized by fans and cause crowds to gather.

Therefore, after thinking again and again, the two decided to watch a movie. It happened that the two works "Memories of My Motherland" and "No Man's Land" in which Ye Zhiqiu participated would be released today, so they would just contribute a little box office to themselves.

In order to keep a low profile, the two chose a cinema not far from their alma mater Huahai Media University. During the National Day, college students went home or traveled. At this time, the cinemas next to the school that mainly did student business had relatively less traffic.

Moreover, in places with many young people, the two would not be so eye-catching.

At nine o'clock, Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei, dressed in casual clothes and slightly disguised, came to the cinema like a college couple.

Standing in the cinema hall, Ye Zhiqiu looked at the big screen for a while, turned to Yu Caiwei beside him and said, "Oh no, I didn't do my homework in advance."

"The nearest show of "No Man's Land" is until 12:25 noon, and it's not available now."

Wearing a white baseball cap, Yu Caiwei, who has an extremely youthful temperament, glanced at the cinema's screening information with her eyes like water, and found that the adjacent schedules were occupied by three blockbusters, "Memories of My Motherland", "Green Snake: Three Lives of Love" and "Special Operations".

Yu Caiwei asked curiously, "Is there so few screenings for No Man's Land?"

Ye Zhiqiu nodded helplessly and said, "8% for the first release is indeed a bit low."

"Originally it was about 10%, but I offended some people at the 'Weishi Movie Night'. Some theaters must have concerns and withdrew some of the screenings for No Man's Land. However, this is originally a low-cost film, so it is normal that the screening rate is not as good as those big movies."

"How about we change to another cinema?"

Yu Caiwei shook her head and pointed to one of the screenings of Memories of the Motherland and said, "No need, let's watch this one at 9:20 first."

"Aren't you also acting in it? It's the same."

Ye Zhiqiu naturally had no objection. He went to the front desk to buy tickets and brought back two cups of lemon tea and a bucket of popcorn.

Because Ye Zhiqiu was wearing a mask and didn't talk much, the front desk waitress didn't recognize his identity, but secretly looked at him several times, until she saw him walking towards another girl and then she looked away with a little regret.

"Let's go." Ye Zhiqiu said.

Yu Caiwei nodded, took the two cups of lemon tea in his hand, and then naturally took Ye Zhiqiu's free hand, and the two walked into the theater.

After sitting down, Ye Zhiqiu looked around and found that although it was morning, the attendance rate was still quite high, basically about 70%, most of them were young people, and only young people could do things like watching movies at more than nine o'clock in the morning.

However, the high attendance rate is also related to the quality of the film itself. After all, this movie is extremely luxurious from the director to the cast, and Ye Zhiqiu, who made a guest appearance, is also one of them. Many fans will also buy it for their favorite actors.

In the past, main theme films may not be so popular with young audiences because of reasons such as "boring" and "strong preaching".

But in recent years, this type of film has become more and more popular, and there have even been several blockbusters with box office revenues of over 1 billion yuan. In the final analysis, it all depends on the quality of the work.

Sitting directly in front of Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei was a couple who were discussing in a low voice before the movie started.

The boy said with some regret: "It's a pity that there are too few screenings of "No Man's Land". Our schedules don't match. I originally wanted to watch Ye Zhiqiu's first film."

"It's okay." The girl said: "It's okay. Ye Zhiqiu also starred in "Memories of the Motherland and Memories". I heard that he is acting with the movie queen Zhang Yanni."

"It's different." The boy shook his head and explained: "This movie consists of four story units, each of which is directed by different directors and actors. Ye Zhiqiu participated in the part directed by Zhao Jinglun, and he was just a guest star in it, not the leading actor."

"But "No Man's Land" is his own work, and it is the feature film he is best at. After watching the trailer, I feel it should be very exciting."

The girl was very considerate and comforted: "Then watch it next time. The National Day holiday has just started, and there is still a chance."

The boy seemed to realize that what he said was a bit disappointing, and hurriedly said: "But "Memories of the Motherland and Memories"The film "Memory" will definitely not make mistakes, the director and the cast are here. "

"Don't you like Yu Caiwei very much? I heard that she sang the theme song."

Speaking of Yu Caiwei, the girl's eyes lit up and she said with admiration: "Yes, I have been looking forward to it for a long time."

"Do you know that Senior Sister Yu Caiwei is a god-like existence in our college."

"It is said that since the establishment of the Art Department of Huahai Communication University for so many years, the most accomplished female graduate in the pop music industry is Senior Sister Yu Caiwei."

The boy seemed to be in a different school from the girl, and asked curiously: "What about Ye Zhiqiu? Isn't he also a god-like existence in your college?"

The girl smiled and said: "Ye Zhiqiu is not from the Art Department."

"And, let alone our school, he is a god-like existence in the Chinese music scene."

"Uh...that's true. "The boy nodded in agreement.

Behind the two, Ye Zhiqiu and Yu Caiwei looked at each other. Ye Zhiqiu raised his eyebrows with a "smug" expression, and Yu Caiwei responded with a coquettish roll of the eyes.

At this time, the lights in the theater dimmed and the environment gradually became quiet.

The movie started, the first story unit, the timeline was the eve of the official establishment of the country.

The film did not start from a very "big" perspective, but started from the event of raising the national flag at the ceremony, telling the story of a "little person" behind it - the flag-raiser.

The advantage of this setting is that it makes it easier for the audience to empathize and feel the atmosphere and pulse of that era more personally.

Ye Zhiqiu watched it very seriously. He remembered that this clip was written by Directed by a director named Guan Jun, he is a famous director with high shooting skills and level.

At the same time, due to professional inertia, Ye Zhiqiu would also put himself into it, imagining how he would shoot such works if he were a director.

As the plot progressed, when the bright national flag was raised high and fluttered in the wind, the first story came to an end.

At this time, Yu Caiwei's clear, gentle and lingering singing sounded in the background.

[My Motherland and I

Cannot be separated for a moment...]

This song seemed to touch a switch in the audience in the theater, and applause broke out.

In the dark, many audience members had wet their eyes unconsciously in the singing.
