Chapter 536: The film scheduled to premiere in ancient times.
After the broadcast ended, the system breathed a sigh of relief and switched back to its original voice.
[Hey, with today's rewards and yesterday's, host's gotta be busy with setups tonight~]
Bai Mengran was quite satisfied with today's rewards, especially the first one.
After unlocking all the wireless signals in the afternoon, she was already planning to find ways to further expand her customer base.
The fact that existing public transportation can now be provided without limits is a huge benefit for state governments that have not yet established transportation links!
Now that she has connections directly to the imperial court, Bai Mengran plans to entrust the relevant matters concerning the opening of transportation routes in other prefectures directly to them.
After she contacted Lord Wang, she asked him to gather opinions and discuss the matter in court the next day. Once they selected a suitable site, she would only need to cooperate in deploying public transportation.
Hehe, this way, the problem is easily and perfectly solved!
No longer do we have to make two trips to the county government to select public carriages and shared horse rental points in Yongle County.
Having internet access is so convenient! Besides, she already received her phone from the online store this afternoon. Once it's set up, she can buy a phone right away!
If we give each of the relevant officials a mobile phone, their efficiency will definitely increase dramatically!
Bai Mengran couldn't help but praise herself for her cleverness. Since she had already gotten in touch with the imperial court, she might as well let them get involved. After all, it was a win-win situation that would benefit both parties.
Well, let's put this relatively macro-level reward aside for now and discuss it later. She should focus on getting the rest set up first.
"Master, I'll follow your instructions from now on~"
It seems there's still quite a bit to set up today. The new store that's opening tomorrow already includes a hot pot island and a rooftop cinema..."
Speaking of setup, she couldn't help but think of the two new stores that started construction last night. However, given their size, they really shouldn't be called "stores"!
One is an island in itself, and the other is a massive, secluded, suspended cinema suspended in the air.
With the addition of two more floors to the 5,000-square-meter Chinese restaurant, are they now starting to expand on a large scale?
Although the interior of this "Fairyland" is infinitely large, she's really worried that guests will break their legs walking around inside...
To eat a delicious meal, my daily step count increases by thousands of steps?
Alright, host, let's begin!
[Let's start with something simple. Please select the movies that will be shown at the cinema that will open tomorrow, and confirm the ticket prices for each theater!]
As the system spoke, it opened the copyrighted film resource library in the cinema store for her, where she could choose any film she wanted.
"Wow! There are so many films! Choosing films for people from ancient times... that's really not an easy task!"
Bai Mengran had to consider both the compatibility of the film with the ancient people and the selection of films that were relatively in line with their aesthetics and concepts, while also taking into account cultural resonance and visual novelty...
And so, she sifted through various film genre sections and finally selected the representative film for the ancient premiere.
These are ten classic films: Confucius, Emperor Wu of Han, Red Cliff, The Road to Xuanzang, Ne Zha, Ma Liang and His Magic Paintbrush, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, The Eagle Shooting Heroes, Hachiko, and Zootopia.
"Although there are eight theaters in total, let's select more films to screen in rotation."
Oh, by the way, I'll have to trouble you to double-check these videos tonight, Tongzi, to see if there are any scenes inappropriate for people from ancient times. If so, we'll have to use some minor editing techniques.
We also need to get large promotional posters for these ten films, as well as promotional trailers suitable for playing on the large promotional screens in [Wonderland] and cinemas..."
Bai Mengran listed them one by one and suddenly realized that there was quite a lot of necessary preparation work for the opening of the cinema. However, she had obviously underestimated the capabilities of the super intelligent system.
These are no big deal! I can take care of them in no time!
For the system, these are easy tasks handed to it. It can even review ten films at the same time and extract exciting trailer content from them. It's a piece of cake!
"Wow, our leader is indeed the leader, his tone is so arrogant!"
"Then I'll leave all of that to the director. As for the movie ticket prices..."
Bai Mengran joked about Tongzi's recent promotion to mentor, since both mentors and directors could be called "Tongdao" (统导, meaning "leader-in-chief")~
Next, she began to customize the ticket prices.
Since the system takes a 10% cut of ticket prices as copyright and maintenance fees, and most of the revenue is pure profit for Bai Mengran, she doesn't want to set the ticket price threshold for regular theaters too high.
The rooftop cinema has a total of eight theaters, including four regular theaters, which are also the four largest theaters, each with a capacity of one thousand seats.
There are two VIP theaters, which are equipped with massage sofas with adjustable backrests and larger spacing between seats. Therefore, the VIP theaters have only 600 seats.
The most upscale VIP screening rooms are composed of private small rooms separated by double-sided glass partitions.
From the outside, nothing can be seen inside, but from the inside, one can enjoy a high-definition viewing experience through the ultra-clear glass directly in front.
Each private room is equipped with a smart sofa bed that can be used for sitting or reclining, allowing moviegoers to comfortably enjoy the film.
The private rooms are also equipped with coffee tables and offer takeout delivery services, allowing moviegoers to enjoy delicious food while immersing themselves in the film.
Such treatment is exclusively available in the private VIP rooms.
Audiences in other theaters can only purchase snacks and drinks at the self-service counter in the theater lobby.
Based on this, Bai Mengran tentatively set the following ticket prices:
[Regular Screening Room]: Best viewing seats are priced at 38 coins per person, regular viewing seats at 28 coins per person, and special side seats at 20 coins per person.
[Premium Cinema]: Best viewing seats: 68 coins per person; Standard viewing seats: 50 coins per person.
[VIP Cinema Rooms]: Single room 108 coins/room, Double room 200 coins/room, Four-person room 388 coins/room, Six-person room 555 coins/room, Deluxe Family Room (accommodates up to ten people) 999 coins/room.
[Single-Day Unlimited Movie Ticket]: 128 RMB per person. Unlimited screenings on the day of purchase, valid only in regular theaters. If there are empty seats in premium theaters ten minutes before the start of the movie, you can also choose to attend, but this is only valid for the day of purchase.
The ticket prices listed above are preliminary prices for the premiere and will be adjusted accordingly based on factors such as attendance.
Bai Mengran had just finished booking the movie tickets and was about to breathe a sigh of relief when the system immediately assigned her a new task.
[Next, please set up a simpler mobile app store, host~]
This was the reward she received after unlocking all the signal base stations that afternoon.
Bai Mengran skillfully clicked to enter and first named all the shops "Unforgettable Mobile Mall".
The location was chosen next to an electronics mall, since mobile phones and home appliances are practically related.
Next, she only needs to choose a model from the five different levels of memory and configuration.
Upon entering the product selection store, the previously only available 3D model of the [Fairyland Smartphone Version 1.0] is now prominently displayed. Its appearance is similar to that of modern smartphones, and it also features a full-screen design.
Data shows that this phone is thinner and lighter overall, making it easy to use without tiring your hands, and the screen size varies depending on the trim level.
The phones are named from lowest to highest quality as follows: [Lightweight Edition], [Enjoyable Edition], [Smooth Edition], [Smart Edition], and [Premium Edition].
The first three options have relatively small screens, similar in size to modern smartphones; the latter two options have larger screens, equivalent to the size of a plus version.
The top-of-the-line "Premium Edition" model can be freely adjusted in size, and can be flipped horizontally or vertically to twice the size of the original screen, or even up to four times the size, almost equivalent to the size of a tablet.
This phone is so appealing, even Bai Mengran was captivated by it; it seems incredibly user-friendly...
