Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars
Chapter 66 Watching a Movie
Time flies, and more than two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
"Hehe, slow down!"
Zhao Yunxia's clear laughter lingered in my ears.
She had a day off today, and Li Guohua managed to get two movie tickets with great difficulty, preparing to take her to the movies.
It was not easy to watch movies in Beijing. In the beginning, there were only 16 cinemas in the whole city. According to the population of Beijing, people could only watch a movie once every three months on average.
Moreover, the locations of cinemas are very unevenly distributed. People living in Dongzhimen, Beixinqiao, Lama Temple, Jiaodaokou, Xizhimen and other places have to walk at least ten miles round trip to watch a movie.
The logistics staff of the textile factory went to the cinema to register for tickets, but sometimes they could not buy tickets even after registering several times. Later, the city leaders, based on the principle of "spending little money to achieve great things", worked hard to build and renovate cinemas, and the situation improved slightly.
However, tickets are still hard to come by. Often, as soon as the tickets come out, a bunch of unemployed teenagers will line up in advance to buy them. When other people are unable to buy tickets, they will sell them at a high price.
This should be the earliest scalper. It has been cracked down on many times by the public security organs, but it still persists.
It is so difficult to watch movies in Beijing, so you can imagine how popular the factory projectionists are when they go to the countryside.
"Hey, Guohua, slow down!"
Zhao Yunxia sat on the back seat of the bicycle, holding the bicycle with both hands, but she always felt a little unstable and kept shouting to slow down.
"Yunxia, hurry up. If you go later, we won't have good seats!" Li Guohua said with a sly smile, but his real intention was not to drink.
"what!"
The bicycle passed a small pothole and jumped, frightening Zhao Yunxia so much that she fell on Li Guohua's back.
"Bad guy, slow down!"
When Zhao Yunxia saw that she had been successfully attacked, she immediately used her right hand to twist Li Guohua's flesh to the extreme, causing him both pain and happiness.
I finally arrived at the cinema, gave the car attendant a penny, and parked my car. There was already a huge crowd of people at the entrance of the cinema.
"There are so many people!" Zhao Yunxia seemed a little uncomfortable. This was her first time to come to a place with so many people. Seeing others dressed up and looking heroic, she always felt timid.
"Follow closely and don't get lost, otherwise it will be bad if someone picks it up and takes it home!" Li Guohua said jokingly.
"Humph, I'm an adult, how could I get lost? I'm not afraid!"
Although Zhao Yunxia said that she was not afraid, she used a little more force in her grip!
The two arrived at the entrance of the cinema and found that everyone was blocked there, seemingly arguing about something.
After listening for a while, they realized that the movie tickets had all been given to other people. Those people didn't want to watch the movie, but they still sold them tickets at double or triple the price. They couldn't stand it anymore, so they simply blocked the entrance of the cinema and demanded an explanation from the cinema.
"If you don't like movies, don't watch them. Don't come out and embarrass the men of Beijing!"
"That's right. We came here in the middle of the night to line up to buy tickets. Why should we give them to you at the same price?"
"We just had something urgent to do and couldn't watch the show. Otherwise, who would have given you the tickets? You want to buy the tickets at the original price? No way!"
There were two groups at the entrance of the cinema. One group was the ticket sellers, all of whom were teenagers wearing old gray-yellow military uniforms and worn-out standard sweatshirts. They were obviously from wealthy families.
Most of their parents have important jobs, and some even work in other places. They were raised by their mothers, who also have to go to work and have no time to take care of them.
One group was made up of people who didn’t buy tickets. There were a lot of them, but they obviously didn’t know each other and weren’t united enough. They were led by a couple of young people, and the other side wasn’t afraid of them at all.
"Guohua, let's go in!"
Zhao Yunxia was a little scared when she saw that the two gangs seemed to be about to fight.
"Let's take a look first. Besides, they are blocking the door and we can't get in!" Li Guohua said with a smile.
Mainly, he recognized a few familiar faces, the four guys he beat up in Dongzhimen last time, especially the dark-skinned young man, who was the tallest and was now standing in the front, as if he was going to fight with someone.
Not long after, the cinema's leaders came out to deal with the problem. Both sides had their own reasons, and the group of children from the compound couldn't do anything to them. At most, they would be criticized and released later. If they found trouble with him and beat him up, it would be bad.
The manager of the cinema promised to add an extra screening and told everyone not to rush, so those who didn't buy tickets finally gave way. However, many people still couldn't wait and began to secretly buy tickets from those children from the academy.
The reason why today's movie is so popular is that it is a foreign film. I heard that there are scenes that are offensive to public morals, and you must be over 18 years old to watch it with a critical eye.
Li Guohua shook his head and said, "That's nothing. Bring my computer here and scare you to death."
But you can only watch it in the next few years. After a while, you won’t be able to watch this kind of foreign film anymore. You will have to wait for a long time if you want to watch it.
While the movie was playing, many young men and women were a little excited, and when it came to the crucial part, the girls all covered their eyes with their hands, spread their fingers, and started criticizing secretly.
In fact, it's just that her clothes are a little revealing and her movements are a bit feminine and seductive. Li Guohua said that's nothing, and I have criticized those who live a good life.
"What's wrong? Are you embarrassed to criticize others?" Li Guohua said jokingly.
After watching the movie and leaving the cinema, Zhao Yunxia was still a little shy and didn't dare to look directly at Li Guohua.
"Who's sorry? There were just too many people in the cinema and I had some difficulty breathing. Yes, I had some difficulty breathing!" Zhao Yunxia retorted when she heard what Li Guohua said.
After saying it, she felt a lot more relaxed, and even started jogging, becoming the lively and lovely girl she once was again.
The two chatted and laughed all the way to the parking lot to pick up the car, where they ran into the beaten foursome again.
"Look, I told you it was him! The last time I grabbed his handlebar, a piece of paint fell off. I remember it clearly!" The big black guy pointed at Li Guohua and said to the other three people, with a look of confidence that he was right.
Li Guohua protected Zhao Yunxia behind him and said with a smile: "Why, are you guys looking for revenge on me?"
"Master, do you know how hard we have been looking for you? We went to Zhongshan Park every day to look for you but couldn't find you. We didn't expect to meet you here!"
As soon as Li Guohua finished his question, the four guys knelt down and insisted on becoming his disciples, treating Li Guohua as the successor of some martial arts master.
"No, you must have made a mistake. Look at how old I am, how can I know any martial arts!" Li Guohua shook his head and smiled bitterly.
At that time, martial arts were still very famous in the capital. Plum Blossom Stance, Flower Fist, Tai Chi, Bagua Zhang, and the Three Heroes of the Wulin were all very popular.
There are numerous fitness and martial arts clubs and national martial arts training teams. National martial arts competitions are held every year, and there are champions in long fist, long weapons, and short weapons.
Learning martial arts from a master is also a very common thing, and nowadays people still attach great importance to respecting teachers.
