Chapter 662 Store Manager Recommendation
"Forbidden Room" is not a pure pornographic film, there are not many nudity elements, and Momonogi is mostly half-covered. This film mainly focuses on how a Yankee trains a Japanese woman, from the initial resistance, to numbness, to
"Stockholm Syndrome"
So what it shows is training.
OH, Loli Island is on! The old white man loves this so much!
After 70 minutes, when the video tape came to an end, Tom let out a sigh of satisfaction. This feeling was more exciting than when he secretly left his virginity on a prostitute's bed when he was fourteen years old.
"It's simply art!"
"What a masterpiece!"
Tom recalled some of the techniques and postures in it, and found it eye-opening. He even had some strange respect for the person who shot the film: "He must be an old-timer who is knowledgeable and willing to share!"
Of course!
Chen Qi lived in Hengdian in his last life, what haven't you seen?
After Tom calmed down, he called a few good buddies: "Listen to me, buddy, I found a good movie! Bring all your stock tomorrow, we haven't had a party in a month!"
At the beginning of the development of video tapes, because there were few films, they were circulated in the form of private viewing parties.
For example, three or five friends hold regular movie viewing parties to share the video tapes they found.
Now that the market has developed, many rental stores are offering memberships, monthly subscriptions, quarterly subscriptions, annual subscriptions, or sharing among members, or getting one movie for free after watching ten movies, which has allowed them to grow rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived, and Tom's bad friends arrived with their own movies.
Staying at home for a whole day, drinking Coke, eating snacks, ordering takeout when hungry, playing boxes of video tapes, clapping and praising the good ones, and mercilessly mocking the bad ones. This is the happiness of otakus!
"The Forbidden Room" received the highest praise, which made Tom Bell look good.
So much so that when he went to return the tape, he rarely put on a smile: "You recommended a masterpiece this time. I have full confidence in you again, and I decided to become a member with you!"
"It was a mistake last time. I have been reading pictures for 20 years and I won't lie to you!"
As soon as I heard about the membership application, the clerk was even more happy. While busy, he said: "Look, the name of this company is X-A. I will let you know if they have movies in the future."
"Have you got that damn videotape back yet?"
Just as he was talking, a guy rushed in. Before the clerk could say anything, he took a look at "The Forbidden Room" and said with a smile: "Haha, that's it! I'll take it away first, you can mark it down yourself!"
"OK!"
This person is obviously a member, the clerk can just record the number. Tom asked curiously: "Is this movie very popular?"
"It has become quite popular in the video market recently. Five out of ten people have watched it and praised it. You know it is the summer season, and Hollywood blockbusters are bombarding theaters. After a big meal, everyone always wants to have some side dishes, not to mention that the filming is really
good."
"Yes, it looks very erotic, but in fact it is very skillful."
Those who are keen on watching video tapes are those who accept everyone who comes, and those who are deep movie fans who can see the ropes.
Tom chatted for a while. Not long after he left, another bald man came in. The clerk immediately greeted him with a smile: "Mr.
Good morning!"
"Good morning! Is the store doing well?"
"Yes, there are more and more customers, and watching video tapes is very popular now."
There are thousands of video tape dealers in the United States, scattered in various states. The owner of this store is just a small dealer in the Los Angeles area, and there are bigger ones up there.
"Where's last week's ranking?"
"Here, I'm just about to put it on!"
The clerk found a large piece of white paper and handwritten the top ten most popular video tapes last week. This was also a small means to attract customers I to rent.
When the boss took a look, he saw that the first one was "Police Academy" and the second one was "Gremlins". They were all theatrical blockbusters released in Hollywood, and the top four were all there. Starting from the fifth place, there were local and foreign B-level movies.
.
""Forbidden Room" is so popular, is it ranked tenth?"
"The tape was delivered late. If it was a full week, it would rank higher."
"What do customers say?"
"It's very innovative and great!"
The boss raised his eyebrows, asked the clerk to continue looking at the store, and walked out. He had a small business and wanted to go to the big dealer above to buy more popular video tapes.
Manhattan.
In a rental store called "Audio and Video Archives", a handsome or ugly clerk with a big chin and a strange face was watching movies with his dog in his eyes.
His name is Quentin Tarantino.
21 years old, his parents divorced when he was young, and he lives with his mother and stepfather. His dream is to be an actor, so he entered an institution to study acting. He always felt that he was an acting genius, and he was very unpopular when he gave instructions to his teachers.
The teacher scolded him: "Go and work as a video rental store clerk for a few years before you come back!"
So he did it. The job of a store clerk was not easy, and he had to work night shifts. The only benefit was that he could watch movies for free. Quentin watched a lot of Westerns and Hong Kong movies, which directly affected his future directing style.
At this moment, there are no customers.
He hid in the back room and stared at the TV with great excitement:
It was a Yankee who poured a bottle of low-quality red wine over the body of a Japanese girl. The dark red liquid slid over the white and delicate body, like a beautiful world-famous painting.
"Oh my God!"
Quentin jumped up, waving his arms randomly like a restless monkey: "Beautiful! A masterpiece! I admire this director!"
As a deep foot fetishist, seeing this kind of footage is like a dream come true.
He was so excited that he watched the whole film. He pulled out the tape and looked at the packaging: "X-Art? What a strange company name. Produced in Hong Kong? Wow, Hong Kong is indeed the film center of the East. Even this kind of film is...
Great photo!"
Afterwards, Quentin entertained a few customers. His mood had not yet calmed down and he wanted to do something.
He also made a list of the most popular last week, and added: "Highly recommended, Desire in the Secret Room!"
There is no authoritative ranking in the videotape market today.
Small dealers in various states make rough statistics and then report them to the big dealers. When the big dealers take a look, apart from the traditional films that should be popular, "Forbidden Room" stands out.
A Hong Kong-produced, non-Kung Fu, alternative-themed short film turned out to be very popular, with a considerable number of rentals. It was once ranked in the top ten every week. Some people even bought it.
You have to spend money to buy it, a box costs dozens of dollars!
