Chapter 154: Draw the Ghost Card

In the room

Hao Ren was playing the game of drawing joker cards with the little girl and Sun Jiali. Sun Jiali had let go of her cards early in the morning, leaving only Hao Ren and the little girl to continue.

"Aha! You're done!"

Hao Ren watched the little girl draw the joker card from her own deck, with a gloating expression on his face.

The little girl wrinkled her nose in anger, then glanced at Hao Ren, put the cards behind her and kept exchanging them.

"Come here!" The little girl put the cards in front of Hao Ren carelessly, indicating that she was not afraid of Hao Ren.

"Really? In that case, it's my turn! Draw a card!" Hao Ren smiled calmly, stretched out his hand, and then glanced at Sun Jiali behind the little girl, signaling with his eyes.

? ? ?

At first, Sun Jiali didn't understand why Hao Ren kept winking at her.

However, after a while, when the little girl only had two cards left, Sun Jiali finally realized what Hao Ren meant, and was a little speechless.

Is this asking her to team up with this guy to cheat the kid? Can't we let the little girl win?

Sun Jiali rolled her eyes at Hao Ren and pointed at a card.

Seeing that Sun Jiali finally understood what he meant, Hao Ren was immediately overjoyed.

However, at this time, he still had to remain mature as an adult. He coughed lightly, then stretched out a hand and slowly clenched it: "Hmph, the rules of victory have been determined!"

Having said that, Hao Ren drew the card in Sun Jiali's hand.

Then Hao Ren's eyes widened.

No, why is it a joker! ?

Wife, you cheated me!!!

Hao Ren glared at Sun Jiali, and Sun Jiali turned her head away from Hao Ren.

The little girl showed a happy look on her face, with a proud look on her face: "Wow, hahaha, the winner this time is me, Yueyue!"

"Wife, you actually sold me out!!!" Looking at the little girl's cards in pairs, and he still had a joker in his hand, Hao Ren looked at Sun Jiali with dissatisfaction.

If it wasn't for his wife, he might not have lost!

"I had no choice before, but now I just want to be a good person." Sun Jiali spread her hands: "Besides, you are the one who wants to cheat when playing with a little kid, so I should be doing justice for the heaven, right?"

"..."Hao Ren was speechless for a moment.

And what about the little girl? She was a little confused when she looked at her parents, but when she heard what her mother said, her little head turned slightly, and she knew the general process. Her little face became round and bulging, and she waved her fist angrily: "Well, Dad cheated when playing with Yueyue!!! Shame on you, I won't play with you anymore!"

After that, the little girl ran out of the door.

And Hao Ren was thick-skinned, without blushing at all, and then looked at Sun Jiali and continued: "Speaking of which, what did you ask me for?"

Before, Sun Jiali rushed in, and was pulled over by Hao Ren to play the ghost card.

"Oh, yes, the requirements of the theaters of the five major companies are very harsh. They gave us two options, one is to buy out our works directly, and the other is to share the box office. They want 72% of the box office." Sun Jiali frowned, with anger in her tone.

"This is a lion's mouth." Hao Ren also widened his eyes when he heard it.

You know, it is impossible to buy out. This is the first shot of the Type-Moon world. As for the box office share?

The other party wants much higher than other theaters. They are deliberately making things difficult for them.

"Well, it seems that the previous "Your Name" made the five companies react, and recently our company's momentum is vaguely comparable to Jiarong. Jiarong alone has already given them some headaches. If we are added, it will be even worse." Sun Jiali couldn't help rubbing her head.

"In that case, let's leave the five major ones alone." Hao Ren sighed.

Although he said so, Hao Ren was still a little dissatisfied.

Because the theaters of the five major companies together occupy about 50% of the cinemas in the country. If they are not released there, the box office will be greatly affected.

But if they really agree, the five major companies may be even more excessive in the future. Even some other theaters will see that they have agreed to the five majors' requirements, and their requirements in this regard will be raised in the future, so they cannot give in in this regard.

Regarding the release of "Kara no Kyoukai", Sun Jiali did not talk to the five major companies directly afterwards. It was useless. The other party was hostile to them.

Maybe they really agreed to this verbal request, and then they regretted it after a while and made more demanding demands?

However, since the problem of the game is in the theater, then we can only rely on the scheduling rate of other theaters. As long as the attendance rate is high, the revenue will definitely be high.

So the Bika company began to vigorously promote "Kara no Kyoukai".

High-speed rail, subway, and screens in major squares.

As long as it is within the acceptable range, it will advertise lavishly.

Not only that, the magazines sold also added advertisements for "Kara no Kyoukai".

And if you go to the movies, you can exchange your movie ticket for a copy of the hand-drawn version of the role of the Porter Teacher from the cinema. There are even 5,000 limited copies of the hand-drawn version, which are given away randomly, such as Fullmetal Alchemist, Your Name, and Magical Girl Madoka Magica.

Hao Ren even posted some of them online and on Weibo.

Soon after the Weibo was posted, there were a lot of comments.

"Fuck, Pika Comics actually made an animated film? You must go and see it. I promise it's definitely not for the so-called limited edition of 5,000 hand-drawn manuscripts!"

""Kara no Kyoukai: Overlooking the Scenery"? As soon as the name came out, I knew it was a series, but I don't know if it's good."

"Ahhh, why are there only 5,000 hand-drawn copies, and the others are photocopies? Wouldn't it be better if they were all authentic?"

"Do you want the porter to die of exhaustion?"

"By the way, I checked the ticket purchase website. Why haven't the theaters of companies like Lanling and Longxiang been showing it? These are all major domestic theaters."

"Don't say it, don't forget that the five major groups also have comic companies under them. Now that Pika is so popular, they must make a move in this regard, right?"

…………

Time has entered December, the last month of the year.

The film market has also entered the most lively Lunar New Year file.

On December 11, Longxiang Company's "I'm Not a Brave" took the lead in opening the Lunar New Year file battle.

Jiarong Real Estate's "Because of Bad Luck, All Lucky" followed closely behind.

The remaining five majors also released their own works.

And Hao Ren's "The Realm of Kara" also premiered, receiving a lot of praise from people, waiting for the start of the public screening.
