January 16th, the Little New Year in the North, is an auspicious day for opening businesses, promoting sales, and generating wealth.
The premiere of the Tom and Jerry movie for the Year of the Dragon was held as scheduled at Yida Cinema in Beijing. The creative team selected a large number of loyal fans from various channels, including but not limited to media reporters, distributors, film companies, media outlets, and film critics.
Compared to last year's "Good Fortune in the Year of the Rabbit," this year's "Dragon and Tiger Fight," despite having a different director, still has a great overall plot, and is actually quite excellent. It's still the kind of show that audiences love, with Tom and Jerry teaming up against their enemies.
Wang Ming, as the Best New Director at the Golden Dragon Animation Awards, has now delivered a perfect film for the Year of the Dragon, which is enough to demonstrate his directing ability, rather than relying on the Tom and Jerry IP to gild his reputation as previously rumored online.
The preview screenings elicited bursts of laughter from the audience, with excellent music playing perfectly. After the screenings, many film critics gave the films extremely high praise, and some theater managers even promised to allocate 45% of their screenings to the theaters on the first day of the Lunar New Year. It is believed that after the official nationwide release, the box office will once again lead the pack. As for whether it can surpass last year's box office record, that depends on whether God will be on its side.
After the successful premiere, reviews of the Year of the Dragon animated film have been released one after another, and they are all unanimously positive. Whether it is the art direction, plot or music, it is excellent as always. Although there is suspicion of paid reviews, it is undeniable that netizens have high expectations for this Spring Festival animated film.
Tom and Jerry: Good Fortune in the Year of the Rabbit is a box office record holder, and whether it will elevate the Tom and Jerry IP to new heights or suffer a surprising exit from the competition has attracted a great deal of attention.
However, no matter how much the Year of the Dragon movie goes viral online, it has little to do with Wang Ming now, as Jiang Xia and his mother are covering for him.
After the premiere, he took the gifts his mother had bought for him in advance and eagerly boarded a plane to Chongqing, where his sweetheart was waiting for him.
"Ying, I'm on the plane! Darling, wait for me~"
"Okay! I'll pack up and head out too, you idiot, see you at the airport~"
"Can we kiss later?"
"I'll give you two kisses!"
"hey-hey……"
Wang Ming hung up the phone with a silly grin on his face. After listening to the well-intentioned reminder about the flight, he turned off his phone, turned his head and quietly looked out the window, watching the plane gradually rise, leave the ground, and penetrate into the clouds.
Filled with wonderful anticipation for what would happen a few hours later, Wang Ming, who had stayed up all night, slowly closed his eyes. Ideally, he would wake up to see the plane land and his beloved Shen Ying running straight into his arms.
He slept very soundly.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Chongqing University of Technology and Business.
It's almost the end of the year, and my roommates went home early after their final exams, leaving only Chen Ying in the dorm.
She originally planned to go to Beijing to find Wang Ming, just like last year, but then she thought that she hadn't been home for the Spring Festival for a year, and it would be too inappropriate not to go back this year.
Two days ago, Wang Ming suddenly told her that he could accompany her home this year as her boyfriend to visit her.
She was stunned in disbelief, because the movie was about to be released, and he was the director. He should have been doing promotional activities with the team. But at this important moment, Wang Ming chose to go home with her to meet her parents.
This sentiment deeply moved Shen Ying.
She got up, brushed her teeth, washed her face, put on light makeup in front of the mirror, and then started packing her luggage to go home and washing her dirty clothes. After doing all this, Shen Ying thought for a moment and then called home.
"Mom, I'm going home today. I bought an afternoon train ticket, so you don't need to pick me up. I haven't had Mom's sweet and sour pork ribs in ages, I'm craving them, hehe... umm, I'll be careful, don't worry. Is it cold at home lately...?"
She chatted with her mother for a while, hesitating whether to tell her that she was in a relationship and that her boyfriend was planning to come home with her, but after thinking about it, she decided to wait until she got home to tell her.
After all, it's not very convenient to communicate by phone, and many things can't be explained in a short time.
Seeing that it was almost time and her phone was fully charged, Shen Ying picked up her suitcase, left the school, and boarded the light rail to Jiangbei Airport.
At 1:20 p.m., the roar of the plane landed on the airport runway, and Wang Ming was awakened by the gentle voice of the flight attendant.
He rubbed his slightly sore eyes and looked out the window. Before him was the smooth runway of the airport. He had just woken up and the plane had landed safely. Thinking that he would soon see his beloved Shen Ying, he was filled with excitement.
He opened his phone and saw that Shen Ying had sent him several messages during this period, and then he replied to them one by one.
"Ying, the plane has landed!"
"I had a premiere last night and didn't sleep a wink. I slept on the plane, enduring more than four agonizing hours. I was so happy to see you when I woke up!"
"Wait for me in the arrival hall, I'll be there in a bit."
"Finally, I miss you so much, ...
The plane finally came to a smooth stop. Wang Ming took his package from the overhead bins and followed the crowd to the arrival hall. As he took the escalator down, he immediately spotted a pretty girl looking around.
He watched silently without saying a word until their eyes met in mid-air.
A joyful smile crept onto his face.
"Ying, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." Wang Ming stood in front of Shen Ying, his eyes full of smiles.
"Hehe, as long as it's for you, I'll wait as long as it takes." Shen Ying stepped forward and hugged him, her eyes filled with emotion.
"Then... what about the kiss we promised after we met?" He blinked.
