Chapter 276 I can't be a slut! (Thanks to Ben 9 League! 21 Layman V)
Li Qi is going crazy!
His movie was a hit.
And the explosion was really beyond his expectation!
He originally thought that this movie's total box office would be considered a hit even if it had a total box office of several million.
But……
The reality was beyond his expectation. In just two days, the total box office reached 17 million!
Damn...
After seeing this data, Li Qi felt that his brain was not very easy to use!
The movie was a hit.
It was so explosive that Li Qi himself began to doubt his life.
When he saw the box office results, he initially thought his parents were behind it again, so he called his family.
But the response he got was that his parents didn't even know that he had joined "Remote" Entertainment, let alone that he was filming this movie.
After all, Lu Yuan's name is so big on the Internet that basically everyone only knows Lu Yuan but not Li Qi.
After getting this answer, Li Qi was so excited!
He spent the whole day on April 7th in a silly mood. He was silly and cheerful when people talked to him and greeted him. There were countless congratulatory calls from people in the circle to him.
Qing's so-called "Brother, Director Li, Brother" and other flattering voices surrounded him and judged him.
If it had been before, he would have been immersed in this kind of vanity and couldn't extricate himself. He felt that he was already the best in the world and the leader of future science fiction movies.
But now...
Now he just smiles at those things and deals with them casually.
He will no longer casually commit to an actor's next movie, nor will he build relationships with those so-called "investors," nor will he interact with those so-called "foolish friends in the industry."
He understands that this world is actually very realistic.
When he was at his lowest point, he really suffered too much disdain and contempt.
It is easy for a person to recognize many things when he is at a low point. At least Li Qi felt that he had already recognized too many things.
He shook his head.
He found that besides being silly and happy, he also maintained a trace of sobriety and was grateful to Lu Yuan...
Li Qi's success made Fatty Wei feel threatened.
If the current results are based on the current results, the box office of "This Man is from Earth" in China is very likely to exceed 300 million!
300 million is definitely a very scary height. The total box office of all Chinese movies in April is not as good as this movie.
This sci-fi movie!
The outbreak of this movie has really put Fatty Wei under a lot of pressure. Now he just wants to film "Groundhog Day" as soon as possible and release it on May 1st...
Although he is the veteran of the company and his status in the company has always been very powerful, and his status will not be too bad in the future, the pride in Fatty Wei's heart does not allow him to lose!
At least we can’t lose at the box office!
Therefore, Fatty Wei feels that he must be more strict with himself in the coming days. He feels that he still needs to improve the quality of the movie, including some of the details in it.
In the future, only high-quality Chinese films will have a future!
Xiaoxianrou's movie box office appeal may be there, but it won't last long!
This is what Fatty Wei reminded himself.
…………………………
"The Man from Earth" rushed into the April movie scene like a ferocious flood beast, and then unreasonably tore into other similar movies.
In early April, Hollywood's arrogant "Future You" was completely unable to withstand the brutal attack of "This Man is from Earth" and was beaten to the point where it was rendered speechless.
Whether it is in terms of audience impressions, word-of-mouth, online ratings, or even popularity, "This Man from Earth" has completely surpassed "Future You". It can be said that the two are not at the same level at all.
Miracles continue, or invisible records are still being created...
Everything has just begun.
In the early morning of April 8th.
Thomson once again looks at the box office receipts of "My Future" and "This Man Is From Earth"...
Thomson found the box office results on the 7th ironic.
"This Man Came From Earth" had a box office of 18 million, and "Future You" had a box office of just over 9 million.
The two stood on the same starting line and on the same battlefield, but their data differed by more than half.
This left Thomson even more speechless.
Such a huge box office gap can no longer be made up by advertising, publicity, or other corresponding methods.
It is already a matter of time before "Future You" encounters Waterloo in China.
The rise of "The Man from Earth" is also a matter of time.
Every successful director has failed, and Thomson has also failed. However, this is the first time that Thomson has felt such a huge sense of frustration since he became a director, which made it impossible for him to recover for a long time.
But the only thing that Thomson found acceptable was that "Future You" was only suppressed at the box office in China, but it was still explosive at the box office in other countries, and its global total box office revenue also directly surpassed "The Man from Earth"
》A big cut.
After all, one is just the China Summer Box Office, and the other is the World Day Box Office.
This is the difference!
When thinking of this, Thomson felt a little bit of a sense of superiority.
No matter how bad I am, I am still in Hollywood movies and I have channels all over the world.
No matter how good you are, you are just a Chinese movie and you are only playing it in China.
Chinese movies and Hollywood movies...
After all, there is an unbridgeable gap.
……………………
"Eighteen million in a single day?"
"This data is scary!"
"Yeah, if "The Extra-Terrestrial" is a dark horse, then "This Man Is From Earth" is already a dark horse darker than coal!"
"Don't say too much, just say that Ergouzi is awesome and that's it!"
"Yeah, I'm suddenly very interested in Ergouzi's film "Groundhog Day" in May. It's also a science fiction film, a science fiction film without special effects!"
"Well, yes! I'm looking forward to it, but there won't be anything wrong with that movie, right?"
"I don't know, Ergouzi really can't say for sure..."
"..."
The popularity of "The Man from Earth" gave everyone hope for science fiction films in a sense.
Chinese science fiction films seem to be on the rise!
Special effects blockbusters, bloody scenes, chaotic horror scenes and countless high-tech equipment...
Without these things, you can still make a good science fiction movie, and you can still make the box office explode!
After seeing the box office results of this movie, many science fiction screenwriters were inspired and prepared to follow the trend without saying a word.
Many directors who had no money scraped together more than one million yuan in investment and began sharpening their skills by announcing on Weibo that they would make science fiction films!
"This God Is Human", "This Human Is Not Simple", "Monster from the Earth", many movie titles were sent to the relevant departments for filing, and then the movie scripts were submitted...
So many things are popping up overnight like mushrooms after a rain!
These investments range from about one million to four or five million. In short, everyone is now focusing on low-cost science fiction films and looking forward to a big hit...
Don’t be the first to eat crabs, but it’s okay to eat some leftover soup.
The relevant departments are really speechless about this situation, but seeing that there are no problems with these scripts and investments, they can't be stuck, right?
So they were all approved.
……………………
When Wu Tingting first came out at the box office, she hurriedly knocked on the door of Lu Yuan's office with interest.
Lu Yuan saw the box office results.
The daily box office is 18 million, and the total box office is already 35 million!
This achievement was achieved in less than three days. Now if nothing happens, this movie may really exceed 300 million!
Make a fortune!
At this moment, this achievement is enough to make Lu Yuan feel elated. With the achievement of 300 million, after excluding a series of dividends, he will get at least 80 million!
If I spend 80 million and another 30 million to renovate the two buildings in Hangcheng Science and Technology Park, I will still have 50 million left!
Fifty million!
Okay, this is all the money you can have left!
The reason why I was so worried before was because I had no money, but now that I have 50 million working capital on hand, I don't have to worry anymore.
Very happy and excited.
However, although Lu Yuan was extremely excited in his heart, he was very calm on the surface.
He stood up and looked at the distant night scene.
He sighed.
It seems a bit sad.
"Mr. Lu, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Wu Tingting was stunned. "Mr. Lu, are you dissatisfied with the current situation at the box office?"
"No……"
"Then why are you unhappy?"
"I found that since this movie became popular, I have lost a lot of things, such as..." Lu Yuan lamented in a low and hoarse voice.
"Like what?" Wu Tingting was stunned. It was originally a very exciting thing, but being disturbed by Lu Yuan like this made her feel a little strange?
Lost a lot of things?
What?
"There's nothing. You go down first. It's so late and you go to bed early."
"Oh, Mr. Lu, don't think too much, everything will be fine..."
"Yes, I understand."
"Then I'll go down first?"
"Well, okay."
Wu Tingting closed the door after leaving.
Although she comforted Lu Yuan, she really didn't understand what Mr. Lu had lost.
Lu Yuan took out a stick of chewing gum and chewed it. The chewing gum tasted very fragrant and comfortable.
In fact, he really wanted to say that he had lost the worries of not having money, and now he was almost a poor person without worries.
but……
He finally stopped talking.
He felt that he might be beaten if he said this...
Even if I won't get beaten, I still feel like I'm too cheap and too pretentious.
He can't be such a bitch...
He wants to be an honest, diligent and serious person.
"Dududu."
At this moment, his cell phone rang.
"Hello?"
"???"
Lu Yuan was confused for a while by the series of English words on the other end of the phone, but then after thinking about it for a while, he finally understood.
This was a call from a person named Jenny from an American film and television company...
"Hello... I... may I... help you?" Lu Yuan took a deep breath.
Ten years of sharpening a sword!
The English he had learned for so long finally came into use.
Although there were bumps and bruises, Lu Yuan felt good about himself.
"Hello, Mr. Lu...Have the global distribution rights of "This Man Came From Earth" been given to other companies?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then it changed to someone speaking fluent Chinese.
She had no intention of practicing English with Lu Yuan...
Or maybe Lu Yuan's English was very difficult for her to listen to.
