December 26th.
clear.
My name is Xiaoya, and I am an ordinary shopping mall salesperson.
"Xiaoya, you haven't got off work yet!" Friends found Xiaoya in the mall, holding the cheese milk tea they had just bought.
"It's almost done!" Xiaoya was still changing shoes for a customer.
The customer of similar age smiled and said: "My friend is waiting for you, I guess I have to buy it quickly."
"It's okay," Xiaoya immediately waved her hand. "Just take your time choosing. They're just waiting for me to go to the movies."
"What movie?" The guest put on his new shoes, immediately stood up and walked in front of the mirror and turned around.
"Is it called "Moonlight Girl"? My friend bought it, I'm not sure." Xiaoya praised her own shoes a few more times.
"I think they look great too. Let's go with this pair! Please pack up my old pair for me." The customer said with satisfaction, "Moonlight Girl? I think I've seen the trailer for it. It's quite interesting. But my boyfriend doesn't like school movies, so he bought another comedy."
"Yeah," Xiaoya said, deftly packing the other person's old shoes. "The theme song of this movie is really popular lately. Many stores in our mall are playing it."
"Oh, it's called 'The Brightest Star in the Night Sky', right? I like it too. It turns out to be the theme song of this movie. Then I have to go back and ask my boyfriend to buy me a ticket."
After Xiaoya finished her work, she handed over a bunch of things to the person who was on shift change before leaving the store.
At this time, the milk tea in my friends' hands was almost empty, and the milk cap had been drunk up long ago anyway.
"Why did you come just now?" The friend couldn't help but complain, "Every time I come to see you, I have to wait for a long time."
"We can't help it. We had guests here!" Xiaoya immediately apologized to everyone: "Well, let's go watch a movie!"
"You haven't eaten yet?" someone asked.
"I'm not hungry anymore!" Xiaoya smiled and touched her belly. "I've been trying to lose weight lately and haven't been eating dinner much. Look, my belly has gotten smaller!"
"We don't know yet, you are so busy that you don't have time to eat! Seriously, why don't you change jobs?" Several friends looked at Xiaoya in confusion.
"No other job earns as much as I do now. Even though sales is tiring, I still make 7,000 to 8,000 yuan a month! With a high school education, where can I find such a high salary?" Xiaoya doesn't think she works that hard.
"What are you saving so much money for?" my friend thought, rubbing his chin. "Are you planning to buy a house in Shanghai? Even if you save until you're 70 or 80, you probably won't be able to come up with enough for a down payment!"
"It's not like I won't get a raise anymore! Once I become a store manager, my income can double!" Xiaoya said excitedly, "I don't want to go back home. I want to stay here."
"It's good to have dreams," Xiaoya said. Like her friends, they all came to Shanghai from small towns to work. But they'd already made plans to save enough money to buy a house and settle down back home. "But we can't just dream! If you really want to buy a house, you might as well dress up and find a rich old man to marry!"
"Hey, hey, hey!" Xiaoya immediately covered the man's mouth. "I wouldn't do such a thing! Anyway, it's always right for me to save more money. Whether I can buy a house or not, we can talk about it later!"
Everyone dropped the topic in due time. After all, in their eyes, buying a house in Shanghai was almost as unrealistic as taking the college entrance examination to get into Tsinghua University or Peking University.
Dreams become rarer as you get older.
When they finally arrived at the entrance of the cinema, they were shocked by the long line outside.
"Why are there so many people?" The last time Aya saw so many people in a movie theater was during the summer vacation.
"They must be fans of Moonlight Girl, right?" someone said, pointing at the cheering banners behind them. "I've always said it, fans just love breaking records."
"I see," Xiaoya suddenly realized, "No wonder there are so many people!"
"They're all fans!" the friend who bought the tickets said angrily. "I saw the pre-sales were so good, I thought it had a good reputation! If it turns out bad, I'm definitely going to leave a bad review!"
The guardian stars did organize an event today.
Although Zhou Yiyang and Bai Yangyu repeatedly stressed that there was no need to organize a special movie viewing just to break the first-day box office record.
But fans all know that this movie has endured too much controversy and abuse since the project was launched.
If today's box office is not good, they can't imagine what nasty things these people will say then.
So the guardians almost spontaneously went to the nearest movie theater for Moonlight Girl, and some even mobilized their relatives and friends to support her.
It’s a pity that today’s four protagonists will not be able to see such a touching spectacle on the Internet.
Because even on the important day of the movie's release, they still have to rehearse at Shanghai Satellite TV.
"We're having a hard time." Tang Yue lay on the ground, too tired to look at her phone. "I don't even know how the box office is doing!"
"Should be pretty good, right?" Su Yin, like Tang Yue, had completely lost her idol image and lay on the ground in her sweat-soaked clothes. "Look at Guan Fei, she glances at her phone from time to time, and her expression is quite normal."
"Why don't we go ask her? Brother Yang and Brother Bai are both missing today. Could they be hiding to watch the box office trends?" Wang Xingrui urged.
Lin Xuan'er chuckled. "And then, seeing that the performance wasn't good, these two grown men just started crying! If you want to see the box office results, I can open the software and show you!"
