The superstar starts from the termination of the contract

Chapter 1122 Box Office Champion
When Lu Fan heard Thomas talking about the box office of the movie, he sat up from the bed and asked, "What is the box office of our movie?"

Thomas also seemed very excited. In fact, there is a winner and a loser in this matter, but at this moment, it doesn't matter to Thomas anymore.

To be more specific, he has given up resistance, and this duel directly declares that Lu Fan has won.

In the future, I will have the opportunity to act in a movie with my idol, so how much does it matter what the final outcome of this silent battle is?
Thomas excitedly introduced to Lu Fan: "Because our movie was released at 24 o'clock last night, the box office on the first day is only calculated for the four hours of the day, although this calculation method cannot accurately calculate the [-]-hour box office. , but everyone makes statistics like this, so it is also very objective in general.”

In fact, Lu Fan at this moment just wants to know how much box office his movie has earned, how much difference it has with "Iron Fist", and who is the box office champion of the two movies yesterday.

The urgency of his mood can't be understood by outsiders at all.

But Thomas was still chattering, and Lu Fan could only listen to him patiently. It seemed that Thomas didn't talk for long, and soon got into the topic:
"I made a special phone call to ask. The statistics of the theaters are more accurate. "Iron Fist" won 300 million box office yesterday, and "Red Fan District" 290 million. I didn't ask about the rest of the movies. They must not have the two of us. There are many."

There was excitement in Lu Fan's eyes. At this moment, he was very excited and wanted to find someone to talk to.

It's a pity that Xu Qian is not here, otherwise she would definitely hold her face and kiss her hard.

"Iron Fist" won a box office of 300 million. The 300 million here refers to US dollars, so if converted into Huaxia currency, it is also about 900 million.

And the box office of "Red Fan District" is 290 million US dollars, converted into Huaxia currency, it is around 800 million.

Thomas also said just now that he didn't ask about the box office of other movies that were staged in the same period, but one thing is certain is that they will definitely not surpass the two movies "Iron Fist" and "Red Zone".

This is an obvious problem. Almost all netizens in North America saw the popularity of "Iron Fist" and "Red Fan District" yesterday. It can be said that these two movies have attracted the attention of all netizens. There is no chance of getting ahead.

What Thomas was still saying on the phone, but Lu Fan couldn't listen anymore. He interrupted Thomas and said, "Okay Thomas, this is indeed good news to be happy about. We will talk about it later when we meet."

"Okay, I'll go find you now." Thomas and Lu Fan were equally happy, and they were not frustrated at all by the small gap between the two movies.

Lu Fan was silent for half a second, and then replied: "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Fan immediately told Wang Wen and Lin Fanghua the good news.

Wang Wen was still sleeping, so after the message was sent, she didn't reply immediately, but Lin Fanghua really replied in seconds. From the punctuation marks in her reply, it can be seen that she was happier than Lu Fan.

Because she faced this matter from two perspectives. First, this is her debut work. The more successful it is, the better it will be for her future development.

The second reason is that as a fan of Lu Fan, she naturally hopes that her idol movie will be a big hit. This is not in China. Success in Hollywood does not only mean huge benefits, but it can also be said to be quite important for future development. the smooth.

Lu Fan asked Lin Fanghua to take a good rest first. It's still early, so we can wait for Wang Wen to wake up. However, she was surprised by Lin Fanghua's reply in seconds. Doesn't this girl go to bed in the morning?

The box office of "Red Fan District" in North America is only [-] US dollars less than that of "Iron Fist". This small gap is really negligible for the box office of millions of movies.

Although the debate among netizens came to a final result last night, and "Red Fan District" was considered by more people to be the best action movie of the year, it was actually very late when Thomas posted that post. The impact of the box office on the first day is not very big.

That is to say, Lu Fan achieved such results by relying on his own hard power, and the matter that the fans argued last night had no impact on the box office of 290 million US dollars at all.

If analyzed according to normal principles, then the 24-hour cumulative box office on November [-] will definitely be an astonishing figure, and if there is no accident, it will definitely throw "Iron Fist" far away.

Looking back and seriously analyzing this matter, you can see that Thomas is really thorough. Even if he doesn't post that post, he can't save the final situation.

Countless fans have proved one thing with practical actions, that is, "Red Fan District" is indeed better than "Iron Fist", and Lu Fan really succeeded this time.

From now on, there will be a brand new name on the Hollywood stage, and this person is China's Lu Fan.

Lu Fan logged into the little blue bird, and saw yesterday's box office statistics without searching. He took over "Iron Fist" and won the box office champion, but everyone's attention was obviously on "Red Fan District".

Still the same sentence, Thomas was able to rely on his super appeal and won a box office of 300 million US dollars in four hours. It really proved his strength as the successor of an action superstar. I have to say that he is indeed very powerful.

However, as a rookie, Lu Fan competed on the Hollywood stage, and finally won a movie box office of 290 million, which is only [-] different from Thomas, who is the protagonist with a halo, so this cannot be described in two words. up.

Lu Fan is simply against the sky!

To use the original words of North American netizens, Lu Fan is simply a god!

Many people can figure out the details inside, so even though "Tekken" has a better box office, everyone's attention is still on "Red Fan District".

Since Kaimei Film and Television released the promotional video of "Red Fan District", it has been in the hot search position in the past few days, and it has not fallen at all.

Moreover, with Lu Fan's series of operations, the popularity has become more and more popular, and it has become a national topic.

Lu Fan clicked in and took a look. The abuse and doubts were almost gone, and everyone was praising the movie.

"This movie is really unexpected, and I have no problem saying it is the best action movie of the year."

"I really like it so much, it's worth watching this movie in the middle of the night."

"My stomach hurts from laughing, Lu Fan really brought too many surprises to everyone this time."

"I have always liked Huaxia Kung Fu, but now no one can express its charm. I hope Lu Fan can continue on this road well."

"I used to only like Thomas' action movies, now I can add Lu Fan."

"I'm going to watch it again tonight."

"I saw on the Internet that this movie created a new style of action. I didn't believe it at first, but after watching it, I realized that "Red Fan District" really deserves this honor."

"..."

Lu Fan can see from the lines of the netizens that "Red Fan District" has given them too many surprises, and even refreshed their previous cognition.

That's why everyone was so excited, and some even started a scolding battle on the Internet, with the purpose of making "Red Fan District" the best action movie of the year in the eyes of netizens.

Of course, it does not mean that the quality of "Red Fan District" can beat all movies in the United States. The discussions among netizens are only limited to the category of action movies, so they did not deliberately blow "Red Fan District" to the altar.

Lu Fan quit the social software very quickly, and the current situation is very clear. In one sentence, "Red Fan District" has become popular in Hollywood, and the popularity has become a mess, far exceeding Lu Fan's expectations.

The next thing is more clear, Lu Fan can hurry up to shoot the second movie, so as to consolidate his position, then he can gain a firm foothold in Hollywood.

At this time, Lu Fan doesn't need to continue to run publicity. In the current scene, almost no one does not know the existence of "Red Fan District". In this year, the information dissemination on the Internet is the fastest.

So he planned to bid farewell to Bill. The domestic movie was also released yesterday. In fact, he still has more things to do when he returns to China.

If possible, he would like to release his third solo album in December, and after that there will be New Year's Eve parties, major music award ceremonies, movie award ceremonies and so on.

Lying on the bed and smoothing his thoughts, Lu Fan got up and took a shower, because Thomas might be here in a while.

At this time, Wang Wen and Lin Fanghua also got up. After learning the good news, they were also very excited. Wang Wen, who had always been calm, seemed a little different from usual at this moment.

Needless to say, Lin Fanghua was eager to tell the good news to people all over the world.

This is also a big-hearted girl. Yesterday she was still troubled by Bill's matter, and she kept explaining to Lu Fan, but today she seemed to be a normal person, not mentioning the matter at all.

Lu Fan was also very happy, and then told them about his plan to return to China. Both of them agreed very much. After all, there is no need to promote movies here, and there is nothing to do if they stay here. It will be different when they return to China. up.

Now that the decision has been made, Lu Fan intends to bid farewell to Bill at noon.

About ten minutes later, Thomas drove to the hotel and congratulated Lu Fan as soon as he entered the door.

Since Thomas made his debut, it was the first time someone was able to match him in the box office of an action movie, but he was not frustrated at all. Apart from being able to make friends with Lu Fan, another reason was naturally because he finally had opponent.

Although being number one is something to be happy about, and getting number one all the time will be boring after a long time.

If there are competitors, the days ahead will be particularly interesting.

Faced with Thomas's congratulations, Lu Fan said modestly: "I should also congratulate you like you. Last night, "Red Fan District" gained such a high popularity that it didn't even win the box office champion on the first day."

Thomas is a very straightforward person, so Lu Fan never beat around the bush when he spoke.

After hearing Lu Fan's words, he immediately burst out laughing: "Don't worry, look at the box office statistics tomorrow morning, it's definitely No. [-] in "Red Fan District". "Red Fan District" has gained such a high degree of attention , The first day is just not fully exerted."

Lu Fan didn't continue to be humble, because this is the truth. Looking at the box office statistics tomorrow morning, 90.00% of "Red Fan District" may rank first, but he doesn't know how much box office he can beat "Iron Fist".

Then Bill and the others also came to the hotel. He was naturally very happy that Lu Fan and Thomas could achieve such results.

Because no matter whether it is "Red Fan District" or "Iron Fist", which movie has a big box office, you can make a lot of money.

He won the overseas distribution rights of "Red Fan District", and after giving Lu Fan a copyright fee, he and Lu Fan will share the rest of the box office in proportion.

And "Iron Fist" is directly invested by his subsidiary Kaimei Films, and he also has a theater chain himself, so the proportion of the share is even higher.

So it doesn't matter to him which movie wins the box office championship. If two movies win the championship at the same time, everyone will be happier.

In order to take care of Lu Fan and the others, the second day's celebration banquet did not go to the manor, but was held directly at Bill's own hotel - the place where Bill took Lu Fan to meet the big shot yesterday.

Naturally, Thomas would not be absent. His movie won the box office championship on the first day, and the creative team was also celebrating. However, he didn't go there at all, but was with Lu Fan.

This is an anecdote to the world, but there is no way, Thomas has always done things his own way, and rarely cares about other people's opinions.

At the celebration banquet at noon, Lu Fan mentioned to Bill that he was going back to China. There is no need for him to stay here to do anything else. Instead, there are many things waiting for him to deal with in Huaxia.

Bill was very surprised when he heard about it, and tried to persuade him to stay but to no avail. In the end, he could only agree with great regret.

Bill asked his assistant to help Lu Fan and the others book the air ticket for tomorrow morning. The reason why he didn't leave today was mainly because he wanted Lu Fan to see the box office of the second day of the movie with his own eyes.

Lu Fan did not refuse, but could only express his gratitude to Bill.

Bill didn't go anywhere throughout the afternoon, but stayed in the hotel with Lu Fan. The two communicated casually like friends, and finally Bill talked about future cooperation.

In fact, both parties are well aware that Lu Fan's "Red Fan District" can achieve such a huge success today, it is inseparable from the vigorous publicity of Kaimei Film and Television, and Bill's secret operation.

Lu Fan is very clear about this, otherwise he would not have handed over the overseas distribution rights of "Red Fan District" to Bill.

Again, while the movie is good, it simply can't beat Thomas' Iron Fist if it's not well publicized.

Just imagine, in the mainland of China, who in the world can surpass Lu Fan in box office?
At this moment, Lu Fan is playing the role of an outsider, defeating the famous star in North America, which is almost impossible for him as a rookie.

No matter how good his movie is, if it doesn't get good publicity, everyone will never know the existence of this movie.

But it’s different now, Lu Fan’s reputation has already spread, as long as he speaks out in Hollywood, countless film and television companies will come to him to cooperate with him, even his own Zhengming Entertainment, can be in this land Get good publicity.

That's the big payoff of fame.

Lu Fan understood what Bill meant, and he just wanted to take advantage of the good relationship between the two parties to squeeze himself hard.

When Lu Fan first came to Los Angeles, he promised Bill that he would have the opportunity to cooperate in the future. He is not a person who does not keep his promise. In addition, Kaimei Film and Television has made a huge contribution this time, so why not cooperate again?
So he smiled and said to Bill: "Mr. Bill, don't worry, we Chinese people keep our promises, and we will do what we promise to others. I told you a few days ago, we must have the opportunity to meet again Cooperation, I still say the same now, after I return to China, I will definitely cooperate with your company for another film."

Bill also heard the meaning of Lu Fan's words. It seems that the next cooperation with Lu Fan will be the last time in his life.

He remained calm, expressing that he was very happy with Lu Fan's decision, and at the same time knew that a talent like Lu Fan would never be inferior to others.

Bill stretched out his hand, smiled and said to Lu Fan, "Then look forward to our next cooperation."

Lu Fan also stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "It would be great if Mr. Thomas was present at this time."

In the evening, Bill entertained Lu Fan and the others grandly again. Bill felt very sorry for their upcoming return to China, and then said that there is no permanent banquet in the world.

Lu Fan found it very interesting after listening to it, thinking that he should have learned it temporarily, right?

After dinner, Lu Fan and others returned to the hotel early to rest and catch the plane tomorrow morning.

The next day, Thomas woke him up again with a phone call. Lu Fan glanced at his phone and found that it was only six o'clock in the morning. Although he had to catch a plane later, he didn't have to get up so early.

After answering the phone, Thomas' voice was very excited, and he told Lu Fan good news, which was naturally the next day's box office statistics.

"Lu Fan, did you see that yesterday's box office statistics came out. "Iron Fist" won a total of 24 and 1000 million box office yesterday on [-]. Can you guess how much box office "Red Fan District" won yesterday?"

Lu Fan fell asleep for a moment. Although there was almost no difference between the two films at the box office on the first day, only about [-] US dollars, it was only on the second day, yesterday, that the real difference between the two films could be seen.

Because the popularity of "Red Fan District" will be completely converted into box office yesterday, the benefits brought by the heated discussions among netizens can be directly reflected in the numbers.

Lu Fan hurriedly asked, "How much was the box office of "Red Fan District" yesterday?"
