Chapter 209 The Idea of a Floating Cinema
The man in sweatshirt glanced at the public toilet next to him, and sure enough he saw the four characters "Lang Ai Hotel" on it.
“A hotel is a hotel and we are us.”
"We are not beggars."
The man in sweatshirt said dullly.
Suddenly, Uncle Shan looked back at Chen Jianhai, "You are not the one who runs the Langai Hotel, right?"
Chen Jianhai asked calmly: "Aren't you the island leader?"
There was a brief silence in the air.
The two people stared at each other for a long time, and suddenly burst into laughter together "Hahahahaha".
"Let's go to work!"
"Go to work!"
…
night,
The popcorn and potato chips mixed with the cola bubbles made a small popping sound in the ears,
The children's noisy shouts are mixed with the occasional curses from adults. Often, just when they are about to stand up and run around, their parents grab them by the arm and pin them down on the stool.
More than a dozen men were stepping on stools to cover wires and set up a stage to play speakers. More than a dozen rows of plastic stools were already filled with people.
Many people were sitting on their little horses, cracking melon seeds and chatting.
The speaker next to him made a hissing sound from time to time, which made people cover their ears with their hands.
Occasionally, I smoked. As soon as I took out my cigarette, I was scolded by the parents with their children and pinched it out before I could take two puffs.
Although Mr. T-Shirt mentioned it as a floating cinema before, the curtain is still set up on the beach near the sea and is not really placed in the water.
"Good guy, there are so many people, my Lord is going to give it a try tonight!"
Xiaolang's eyes gleamed with excitement and he quickly set up the barbecue grill.
“What a lively Friday night!”
Chen Jianhai took the incubator off the cart and stared at the dark crowd in front of him, his eyes widening.
"Yeah, Friday nights are always lively."
Feng Di specially drove the truck out today, and the entire trunk was filled with fresh beer and ice-cold drinks.
"It is originally a tradition of the island to set off fireworks and watch movies on Friday nights. Although everyone has seen the movies, as long as they have time, everyone will come out to watch movies. No one wants to miss it."
As the three people were talking, they saw light coming from the curtain.
A golden dragon made of film jumped out of the huge green screen, and the words "Public Screening Permit, Telephone Censorship" and other words appeared along with the familiar opening music.
At the beginning of the movie, a delivery boy is riding a small electric car and goes straight to the most popular barbecue stall in the night market.
Everyone stared at the movie scenes, as hot charcoal fires, street barbecues, spicy crayfish and night market scenes appeared on the curtain like flashbacks,
Then, the four characters "BBQ Brothers" were typed on the public screen.
Seeing this movie title, many islanders on the island looked at Chen Jianhai, Xiaolang, and Feng Di with understanding, and smiled knowingly.
"This movie title...why does it feel like it was released by us?" Xiaolang looked at Chen Jianhai in confusion.
Chen Jianhai was also a little confused.
"Brother Chen, you are really popular on the island!"
Feng Di envied, "The content of the movie can be played anytime and anywhere based on the island's conditions. No one knows what movies will be shown every week."
"This movie is obviously just for you two."
As soon as these words came out, Xiaolang's movements stopped, "Really?"
Feng Di nodded, "That's true! Recently, because of your barbecue stall, more people are walking on the street at night, and even the bar's business has improved."
"My coffee shop is starting to get people visiting during the day!"
"So this movie must be for you two."
The more Xiaolang listened, the brighter his eyes became, his face turned red, and his chest rose and fell violently.
"You treat me to a movie! I treat you to a barbecue!!!"
“Everyone at Xiaolang BBQ is free tonight!!”
Feng Di almost fell to his knees and quickly went up to cover Xiaolang's mouth.
Ancestor, you said it’s free for everyone, what should I do with my drinks!
Feng Di was sweating anxiously. He was just pointing to tonight's barbecue to regain his health.
But Feng Di's action was a step too late after all, Xiaolang's words had already been shouted out,
Everyone present pricked up their ears, "Boss Lang, it's bright!!!"
"Bring me 30 mutton skewers first!"
"I want two bottles of Coke!"
"No..." Feng Di said with a bitter look on his face, "He sells his meat skewers and I sell my wine. The wine is not free...!"
"Okay, Lao Feng, a little money for drinks is not as important as having fun." Xiao Lang waved domineeringly,
"Brothers are so supportive, do you still have the nerve to accept money?"
"???" Feng Di's eyes widened, why am I shameless to accept money!
How come I, an aboveboard businessman, have no shame in accepting money!
Feng Di felt a little aggrieved.
But there is no Xiaolang BBQ, nor his wine business.
Although he refused to admit it, the matter was here.
If he still charges money when others are doing it for free, it doesn’t mean that much.
Besides, no matter how much you lose money on your own beer, you won’t lose as much money on Xiaolang’s meat skewers.
never mind!
Isn’t it just the price of two carloads of drinks?
"Beer and drinks are free today, everyone can eat and drink to your heart's content!" Feng Di shouted, holding back his heartache.
"That's right, Lao Feng, you have to take a long-term view when doing business!"
Xiaolang sounded like someone who had come before, patted Feng Di on the shoulder, and spoke seriously.
"In the long run... if you wait two more times, your shop will be ruined sooner or later!" Feng Di secretly muttered in his heart.
Because there were so many people at the scene, Xiaolang’s meat skewers and Feng Di’s drinks were sold out not long after.
As the sky gets darker, the image of the floating cinema screen becomes clearer and clearer.
"This cinema is really more exciting than IMAX, the screen is bigger."
Chen Jianhai and Xiao Lang were sitting on the wooden promenade at the back, holding soda drinks in their hands and watching happily.
"If the island hotel also builds a floating cinema in the future and buys 100 recliner seats so that customers can sit on the beach and watch movies, the experience will be great!"
The more Chen Jianhai looked at it, the more vivid his mind became.
"Sitting on the beach and watching a movie seems a bit ordinary."
"If you buy some double canoes, use the boat as a unit every night and let customers sit in individual boats,"
“Each ship uses a QR code to place an order, and all meals are delivered without contact. Wouldn’t it be even more amazing to have dinner, drink and watch a movie at the same time?!”
"As for the volume, you can get some wireless headphones, which will not disturb people and ensure the viewing effect."
"As for the movie schedule... we can have some Cars and Summertime movies that the kids like to watch, or some family-friendly popcorn movies."
"nice!"
The more Chen Jianhai thought about it, the more excited he became. He even thought about whether the popcorn should be creamy or mustard flavored.
Just when Chen Jianhai was enjoying the future with full satisfaction, the conversation between Xiaolang and Feng Di fell into his ears.
"Old Feng, the movie on the water this week is Barbecue Brothers. What kind of movies were shown in the past?"
"Before?" Feng Di's voice was a little hesitant,
Xiaolang frowned: "Why are you hesitating? What kind of movies were shown before?"
Feng Di looked at Chen Jianhai awkwardly and said:
"In the past, the shows were all about hotel horror, hotel zombie war, deadly hotel, hotel catastrophe, hotel escape and hotel rescue..."
Chen Jianhai:? ? ?
Xiaolang:? ? ?
