China Entertainment: Return to 2007

Chapter 179 Disaster to Chiyu

"That's right. After all, he is a national master. This strength is really not something you can boast about."

The two of them were chatting and counting data.

Soon, as the documents were gathered in one place, the box office results of "Three Guns" were officially released.

"Lao Zhang, guess how much the box office is?" Lao Li said, holding the summary data.

"Looking at you like this, you must have broken 3 million, right?"

"Oh, you old boy has a pretty good nose. You really guessed it. The box office of "Three Guns" did exceed 3 million on the first day."

"How much exactly?"

"To be precise, it's 3082 million. The national master is worthy of being a national master. He won yesterday's Japanese crown in one move." Lao Li said with a smile.

"How do you know it's a Japanese film? The box office results of "Monster Hunt" haven't been released yet?

What if it overtakes "Three Guns"? "

"Haha, how is this possible? How old is Xu Ge? How many movies has he made?

How could he be comparable to the national master? "

Lao Li shook his head, and when he saw Lao Zhang's playful look on his face, he smiled angrily and said, "How about we make a bet? If you lose, treat me to dinner at noon. If I lose, I'll treat you to hot-boiled mutton?"

"Put me down. If you want to cheat me, just say it. Am I that stupid?" Lao Zhang shook his head and said.

"It's boring, I really have no passion at all." Lao Li picked up the thermos cup, took a sip of wolfberry water, and said with a smile: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, count the box office of Monster Hunt. If you don't hand it in, your boss will Someone’s here to hurry you up.”

Lao Zhang nodded, and the two began to calculate the box office of Monster Hunt.

Today's major theater chains have not yet been fully connected to the Bureau of Statistics.

If you want to check yesterday's data, you must check and summarize it manually through each system.

After working for a while, the two finally came up with the final box office.

The moment they saw the box office of "Monster Hunt" on the first day, both Lao Li and Lao Zhang fell silent.

"Fuck! Could it be that we calculated it wrong?! How could it have this number?!"

"Yes, we must have made a mistake in our calculation. Let's exchange our respective data and calculate it again."

Some did not believe in evil, so Lao Li and Lao Zhang exchanged documents and began to review the records again.

Ten minutes later, looking at the exact same total number in front of them, the two people fell silent again.

Boom boom boom!

"Lao Li! Lao Zhang! What happened? Why hasn't the data come out yet?!

The director is urging me to hand over the box office results of "Three Guns" and "Monster Hunt"! "

The assistant director hurried to the office and saw that the two of them already had the data. He was immediately overjoyed and grabbed it without even looking at it before running towards the director's office.

"How could this happen? Could it be that we made a mistake again?"

"Who knows, what if this is true?"

Lao Zhang and Lao Li, you look at me, and I look at you. Finally, the two of them let out a long sigh and stopped talking.

In the director's office,

The director is waiting anxiously.

The work of the Census and Statistics Department is very important when we say it is important, but it is not important when we say it is not important.

It all depends on how the leader sees it.

To put it bluntly, it’s not yet noon, so it’s normal that there’s no data.

But isn't it because there are leaders from above who are urging us? The director is naturally eager to get the final result.

After waiting for a while, the assistant ran back with a bang.

Seeing the data in the assistant's hand, the director immediately stepped forward and said, "Are the results out? Show me quickly."

"It's out. Director, please take a look."

Taking the data from the assistant, the director opened the first page and quickly glanced at the summary of various places. He turned his attention directly to the end.

"Well, yes, 3082 million. "Three Guns" is indeed the masterpiece of the national master. It seems that the box office is at least 3 million."

The director nodded happily and then turned to the second page.

"Well, that's not bad. There are actually 2967...what?! 2967 million!!!"

When the director saw the first-day box office data of "Monster Hunt", he couldn't help but exclaimed.

Although Xu Ge has great potential and "Monster Hunt" has also shown quite good box office momentum,

But the director never expected that the first-day box office figures of the two were so different! So close!

Don't look at it. "Three Guns" has more than 100 million more tickets than "Monster Hunt".

But you must know that the former’s film schedule is 55%!

The film schedule of "Monster Hunt" is 43%!

There is a 12% difference in the film schedule, but the box office difference is only about 100 million.

what does this mean?

This means that the attendance rate of "Monster Hunt" is definitely higher than that of "Three Guns"!

This means that "Monster Hunt" is more popular than "Three Guns"!

This also means that Xu Ge really has the strength to compete head-on with the national master!

The big words he once said are really possible in reality!

"Director, do you want to publish this data?" the assistant asked in a low voice.

"Go ahead," the director came to his senses. He nodded softly and said, "The total box office in a single day has exceeded 6 million, which is not worse than the record set by "Transformation 2" released in the summer. This is a great event, so hurry up and announce it."

"Yes, Director." The assistant nodded and left.

The director took out his cell phone and quickly called Mr. Han to inform him of the good news.

On the other end of the phone, Mr. Han was very happy: "Hahaha, okay, this Xu Ge really didn't disappoint me!

The future of Daxia Film really depends on these young people! "

.......................................

【Excuse me! "Three Guns" grossed 3082 million at the box office on its first day! Ranked first in the single-day movie box office!

With his absolute strength, the national master once again proved that his dominance is unbreakable! 】

【Shock! "Monster Hunt" grossed 2967 million at the box office on its first day! The difference from "Three Guns" is only a million!

The latter's film arrangement is a full 1/4 higher than the former!

Inferring from this, "Monster Hunt" has endless potential and will definitely catch up from behind in the future! 】

[Good news, great news! Yesterday, the domestic blockbusters "3 Guns" and "Monster Hunt" were both released, helping the single-day box office to exceed the 60 million mark!

The Lunar New Year movie-watching craze has officially begun, and a new era of summer blockbusters has arrived! 】

[Today’s Douban score was released, and “Three Guns” reached a new level with a score of 4.9!

Looking back at "Monster Hunt", nearly 8.1 people collectively scored a super high score of ! 】

[The box office of "Monster Hunt" on the first day shocked the whole country!

Is it true, as Xu Ge said, that its total box office will be double that of "Three Guns" in the future? ! 】

[On the first day of the showdown between old and new directors, veteran ace director Zhang Yimou temporarily leads with a slight advantage. New director Xu Ge follows closely, ready to overtake at any time!

In this peak showdown, who will have the last laugh? Let us wait and see together...]

【…】

As soon as the Imperial Master and his party arrived at the gate of the China Film Cinema in the Imperial Capital, they were surrounded by a swarm of entertainment reporters. "Director Zhang! What do you think of the box office of "Monster Hunt" reaching nearly 30 million on the first day?"

"Director Zhang! When "Monster Hunt" is lagging behind "Three Guns" in film schedule, it has a similar box office.

Does this mean that the former is better than the latter? "

"Director Zhang, Hong Huan and Han Han wantonly attacked "Three Guns", claiming that the movie you made is purely a sketch movie! Watching this movie is completely insulting your own IQ!

Is there anything you want to say? "

"..."

Facing many entertainment reporters who were as tough as kraft paper, Zhang Yimou smiled very calmly and said: "First of all, I want to reiterate once again that "Three Guns" is a very excellent work, and winning the championship on the first day yesterday proves its strength. !”

"Secondly, "Three Guns" and "Monster Hunt" are not the same. One is a suspense comedy and the other is a children's fantasy film. There is no comparison between the two.

Therefore, there is no way to say who is better than whom. At most, we can only say who is better than the other to cater to the audience. "

After a pause, Zhang Yimoushuang continued: "As for the various comments on "Three Guns" on the Internet, it is difficult to reconcile. I have made so many classic movies. Which movie was not criticized when it was released?

I've long been used to it.

Now is a free society ruled by law and freedom of speech. I hope everyone will not over-interpret it. "

After spending a long time dismissing the entertainment reporters, Zhang Yimou led the main creator of "Three Guns" into the cinema door.

The moment he left the camera, Zhang Yimou's smiling face immediately turned gloomy.

Obviously, he himself is not as open-minded as he says.

How could he not be angry when someone took advantage of him?

"Don't worry about Director Zhang," Uncle Benshan said with a smile, "Three Guns won the championship on the first day. Naturally, there were many jealous people.

Han Han, Hong Huan and others just want to impress people.

You don't have to care. "

Am I worried about them?

Zhang Yimou glanced at Uncle Benshan and said with a smile: "Thank you, Teacher Zhao. With your strong support, "Three Guns" will definitely shatter all rumors."

Although Zhang Yimou knew that it would cause great controversy as early as when he was filming "Three Guns",

But he still didn't expect that it would cause such a big controversy.

That’s all Han Han, he can’t get on the stage now.

Hong Huan is different. Her influence in the industry is no less than that of the top stars.

If that's all, controversy will also bring popularity, and popularity will bring box office, with half the pros and cons mixed.

But the key is that there is still Xu Ge. His "Monster Hunt" not only has excellent reputation, but now even the box office is almost the same as "Three Guns".

This made Zhang Yimou very depressed.

Who is Xu Ge? How old is he?

If he really wins "Three Guns", where will he put his old face?

Although Zhang Weiping was very cooperative and took all the dirty water,

Even if "Three Guns" is really defeated in the end,

It is also Zhang Weiping who is embarrassed.

But none of the common people are fools, no matter how clean they are,

As the chief director of "Three Guns", how could he really escape?

Throughout the whole road show, Zhang Yimou was absent-minded.

Now all he can think about is: "I hope my past accumulation is strong enough, and "Three Guns" cannot lose to "Monster Hunt" no matter what!"

....................................

"Zhang Yimou has such a strong accumulation, "Three Guns" will not lose to "Monster Hunt" so easily."

Sioux City, outside China Film Cinema.

Known as the back garden of the magic city, Sioux City’s economic prosperity is no worse than that of first-tier cities.

After leaving the Magic City, the second stop for Xu Ge and his party was Su City.

"Director Xu is so humble. Who doesn't know now that it's only a matter of time before "Monster Hunt" beats "Three Guns"."

Cai Yinong sincerely praised: "Director Xu, your work on "Monster Hunt" is so good, the level of special effects is comparable to that of Hollywood's first-tier major productions!

Zhang Yimou's sword is old, "Three Guns" is definitely not the opponent of "Monster Hunt"! "

Cai Yinong looked at Xu Ge with a golden light in his eyes.

In her eyes, Xu Ge has almost become the incarnation of the God of Wealth.

"Happy Family", "Bu Bu Jing Xin" and "Gu Jian Qi Tan", which are currently being filmed intensively, these Japanese movies and TV series are all huge hits! Sugar Man makes a lot of money for this!

Looking at the current "Monster Hunt", there is no need to question Xu Ge's ability to attract money!

"Director Xu, I wonder if you still need investment for your next movie?" Cai Yinong said proactively with a straight face: "As long as you give the order, the investment of less than 5 million can be received on the same day."

"Don't worry, let's wait until "Monster Hunt" is released." Xu Ge did Tai Chi and ignored Cai Yinong.

Today is different from the past. Now that he has matured, he no longer needs to look at other people's faces.

He thought that he had given enough benefits to Tangren, and he had already repaid all of Liu Shishi's debt of gratitude.

There is no need to go out of your way to send money to Cai Yinong.

"Director Xu..." Cai Yinong wanted to say something more, but Xu Ge got up impatiently.

Seeing Xu Ge no longer paying attention to her, Cai Yinong shook his head in annoyance.

"Oh, if I had known today, I should have put all my money into it! It's too late now!"

Once, when cooperating with Xu Ge on "Step by Step", Sugar Man actually had the opportunity to board the big ship of Xu Ge Film and Television.

But the size of Sugar Man at that time was not comparable to that of Xu Ge Film and Television.

Faced with Xu Ge’s plan to jointly develop Jinjiang’s popular novels,

Cai Yinong didn't pay much attention.

When "Bu Bu Jing Xin" and "Happy Family" became popular later,

The situation was reversed and Xu Ge became the helmsman.

Cai Yinong lost this precious opportunity and could only rely on Liu Shishi's favor to barely get a share of the pie.

But now, as Xu Ge Film and Television develops faster and faster, and as Liu Shishi's favor is exhausted,

Sugar Man no longer has any capital to have a head-on conversation with Xu Ge.

Seeing this, Cai Yinong was angry and annoyed. He only regretted that he was not decisive enough and wasted such a good God-given opportunity.

Looking at Xu Ge who is standing on the stage and receiving congratulations from all directions,

Cai Yinong is unhappy in every way,

She was about to leave sadly,

Inadvertently, I saw Ni Ni standing next to Xu Ge with a bright smile on his face.

Suddenly, Cai Yinong suddenly realized: "Haha, Xu Ge, Xu Ge, I don't believe it, sugar people can't catch up with your big boat!"

As if the two channels of Ren and Du had been opened, Cai Yinong felt hot in his heart.

She didn't have time to waste any more time here, so she picked up her bag and turned around to leave...

Ah!

Which beauty is thinking of me? !

On the stage, Xu Ge sneezed, he couldn't help but think.

..............................

On the second day of the face-to-face confrontation between Xu Ge and Zhang Yimou,

No one expected that the winner of "Three Guns" and "Monster Hunt" has yet to be decided.

"Chilling" and "Wind and Cloud 2" were disastrous and were canceled!

　Thanks to the boss for his words, Yi Lou Deng Yu Jing, and 20220804102407236 for his monthly ticket support!
