China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 513 Mr. Screaming Chicken

"20% of the screening rate..."

Lin Gao put down his phone, touched his chin, and smacked his lips absentmindedly, his voice slightly hoarse and magnetic.

"Hmph... I was a little too arrogant this time... But I don't regret it."

Lin Gao shook his head and said.

In fact, although he looked very imposing when he signed the agreement a few days ago, if you ask Lin Gao carefully whether he is sure that there will be no compensation in the end, Lin Gao can say very clearly and responsibly - "I don't know."

Anyway, the previous version of "Kung Fu" did not have such a screening rate, and the final box office was only 100 million.

Of course, I didn’t lose any money!
It even ranked among the top ten Chinese film box office charts in the world, and finally stabilized at fourth place.

But I also said it.

That was in the previous life.

In this life, because of Lin Gao's "Butterfly", Chinese films have made changes in advance, achieved cross-stage progress, and their international status has become increasingly important.

Therefore, Lin Gao had no idea how much success he would be able to achieve in this life by playing the leading role in "Kung Fu".

It can't be too bad, right?

Lin Gao stretched his neck and thought!

Due to the time difference, after Lin Gao finished a day's work and went home and flirted with Yaya, he fell into a deep sleep and slept until the next morning.

A dreamless night.

The sleep quality is so much better.

While he was sleeping, "Kung Fu" had already been quietly released in some countries and regions.

“Buzz—buzz—buzz—!”

The cell phone, which was set to vibrate mode, was ringing on the bedside table, and it seemed that it would not stop until Lin Gao woke up.

In the bedroom decorated in gray and white, the quilt on the big bed in the middle was puffed up, the air conditioner was blowing cold air, and Lin Gao was sleeping soundly wrapped in the quilt.

The vibration sound still disturbed Lin Gao.

The soundly sleeping expression suddenly changed. He was woken up from his sleep. Lin Gao frowned, wrinkled his nose, and pulled down the quilt that covered half of his face.

Then he pulled himself out of the quilt with great difficulty.

Get up.

The quilt slid down to waist level.

From the collar, you can see a few faint traces of pink below and behind the neck.

Ok.

Yaya's masterpiece.

Lin Gao, who was not yet fully awake, sat for two seconds, then leaned forward and grabbed the phone and took a look.

Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Robert calling.

Look again.

Oh, it’s only six o’clock in the morning.

Six o'clock...

Six… o’clock… ah…

"??? Oh my god!"

Very good, Lin Gao woke up, staring at the time on the lit screen of his mobile phone with wide eyes in disbelief.

Shanghai time, six o'clock in the morning.

Lin Gao took a deep breath, tapped the answer button with trembling fingers, and put the phone to his ear.

His voice had the hoarseness and lowness that was unique to the early morning.

"Mr. Robert?"

"What do you want to see me about in this world?"

Although he felt that Robert's "shameless move" of disturbing people's sleep early in the morning was not good, Lin Gao adhered to his "good qualities" and did not show any dissatisfaction. Instead, he tried to make his tone gentle.

It's quite gentle here.

It's not so gentle over there.

The moment he heard Lin Gao's voice, Robert let out a sharp sound that was comparable to the crowing of a chicken. "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh——!"

Lin Gao: "...?"

The lethality of this shout is quite strong, especially for a person who has just woken up, is not fully awake yet, or can even continue dreaming when he lies down.

Lin Gaomu's face was blank, his lips trembling up and down, and he closed his eyes in pain.

"Stop... stop... Mr. Robert!"

"What happened?!"

Unable to bear Robert's "screaming chicken" tea poison, Lin Gao raised his voice louder and finally stopped Robert from continuing to "crow".

Robert: "Lin Gao! Do you have any prophetic abilities?!"

Lin Gao: "...?"

Where did this come from?

Lin Gao felt that his sleeping position might be a little wrong.

I really want to hang up the phone, throw away my phone, and go back to sleep.

"The global first-day box office of Kung Fu has come out. Although due to time differences, several countries have not yet been fully counted, but based on the current summary of the box office, it can be seen that Kung Fu is very popular with everyone! The box office has exploded!"

Lin Gao, who finally understood, raised his eyebrows in surprise. He was quite surprised and couldn't help muttering something.

"So fast?"

This news was indeed worthy of Robert calling to inform me at this time.

He shook his head helplessly.

Lin Gao’s sleepiness has now completely disappeared.

He lifted the quilt, put on soft slippers, reached out for the remote control to turn up the air conditioner temperature, and opened the curtains to let the light golden sunlight shine into the bedroom.

"Then let me hear it, what was the box office on the first day?"

"It's roughly 2800 million. If we add together the regions that don't have box office records yet, it should be able to reach 2900 million US dollars!"

Robert was extremely excited.

But when Lin Gao heard this number, the excitement in his eyes faded a little, and his interest also lost some momentum.

Finally, he said "Oh" dryly.

Unable to hold back his disappointment, he spoke in a low voice.

“That’s all.”

To be honest, Lin Gao was a little disappointed.

Shouldn’t we say it’s worthy of being a Chinese film?
When it comes to going global, it’s really not very popular among our international friends.

It seems that the international reputation of movies in which Chinese people participate and direct is still not very good, and the public is also very resistant to it.

In comparison.

Hollywood blockbusters directed by foreign directors and starring only one or two Chinese actors have pretty good box office figures.

Alas, it’s all due to cultural differences and the status of the film!

Otherwise, there would be no way the movie would have grossed 2800 million U.S. dollars.

too low.

Lin Gao, who was feeling low, suddenly felt a pain in his teeth.

In Lin Gao's opinion, this movie should be able to earn around 3500-4000 million on the first day.

With this huge reduction, Lin Gao is a little "sad"!
Let’s not talk about this, just look at the movies that Lin Gao has played as the protagonist or supporting role before. The worst one could have a box office of 70 million US dollars on the first day!

So, how could Lin Gao not feel a sense of gap?

That's normal.

But after hearing what Lin Gao said, Mr. Robert, who still wanted to scream like a "screaming chicken", seemed to be strangled by the throat of fate, and was choked on the spot as if there was phlegm stuck in his throat.

Robert repeated Lin Gao's words word for word.

"That's all? Oh my God! Oh my God! How can you say that!"

"This is already an exceptionally good box office data. Ahhhhhhh, on the first-day data list of Chinese films abroad, Kung Fu can be ranked sixth!"
