The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Love Winner (Chinese: 恋爱大赢家; pinyin: Liàn Ài Dà Yíng Jiā), also known as I Love How You Love Me (Chinese: 喜歡你喜歡我; pinyin: Xǐ Huān Nǐ Xǐ Huān Wǒ), is a romantic movie starred by Jimmy Lin (林志颖), Liu Yi Fei (刘亦菲), Xu Shaoyang (许绍洋),and Yang Gongru (杨恭如). It tells a story that Wang Han Wen (王汉文), who has been studying in a martial arts school, has no intention to take over his father's company and travels to Hong Kong to teach at the Businessmen and Technical College. At that college, he meets a girl named Qian Yue Shan (钱月珊), whose father has been in heavy debt and she must pay him the money back. Wang Han Wen's father knows that Qian Yue Shan (钱月珊) has a close relationship with his son, so he asks her to persuade his son to go back home. He tells her that if she succeeds in getting his son back home, he will help her pay the debt. She has to take this offer seriously after starting it as a joke and conducts a series of love campaigns. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
