The clock rang at midnight.

Zhang Tong smoked silently and looked at the endless stream of vehicles under the Tianyu Building.

Although he looked calm and silent without saying a word, in fact, he was still a little nervous in his heart.

The most important thing about a movie is not word-of-mouth, not popularity, and not praise rate.

The most important thing about a movie is the box office.

Last year's "Subway Station" Zhang Tong did harvest hundreds of millions of box office, and this year's "Blood Era" made Zhang Tong feel more or less nervous.

"The Age of Blood" is a war film with the main theme, about the war sixty years ago.

As long as the main theme film is not badly shot, the box office is generally guaranteed, but the guarantee is guaranteed, but if you say that the box office is going to be a big hit, it is really unrealistic.

After all, audience is still an issue.

Although he has always been very confident in his "Blood Age", there are so many Hollywood blockbusters in this year's New Year, which makes him feel bottomless.

Hollywood blockbusters are not strong in other films, but they have a particularly strong ability to attract fans, and it is easy to suck away all the fans of the younger generation in China, causing other movies to begin to become unpopular.

Zhang Tong is not Li Mingrui, he has a deep understanding of his own movies and the national conditions of China.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chinese films really have a long way to go if they want to beat Hollywood movies now, and they also need the tilt of various resources.

It's almost an impossible task.

More than ten minutes later, the two cigarettes were finished.

Zhang Tong took out his mobile phone and subconsciously wanted to call Lu Yuan, but he didn't know why, he now felt that Lu Yuan should be much more nervous than him at this time.

After all, "The Wanderer" is Lu Yuan's second movie, and Lu Yuan's current situation urgently needs a movie to prove his strength.

Toot toot.

The phone rang for a long time before it was connected.

"Hey ......"

"Xiao Lu, have you slept?"

"Uh......h Director Zhang, I just fell asleep. ”

"Just fell asleep?" Zhang Tong's sentence of falling asleep was originally just a polite remark, after all, who would sleep at this critical juncture?

However, when Zhang Tong heard the sleepiness in Lu Yuan's voice, he was a little incredulous?

Could it be that Lu Yuan is really asleep?

Are you kidding......

"Well, yes, I'm a little tired, Director Zhang, what's the matter?"

"No, I just want to ask you what you think of the box office of the Spring Festival stalls?"

"Eh, the box office of the Spring Festival stalls? Director Zhang, I can't say it, it should be a good box office. ”

"Oh, so how much do you think you have at the box office?"

"Well, the response to the premiere seems to be quite good, and I don't think my box office will be too bad. ”

"How much do you have in mind?"

"Nine million should be there. ”

"Nine million, two days to pay back, well, it's good. ”

"Well, yes, oh, by the way, Director Zhang, do you have anything else?"

"No ......"

"Oh, then I'll call you tomorrow, I seem to have a cold again, and my head is dizzy. The voice on the other end of the line was obviously a little weak.

"Oh good, watch your body ......"

"Bye-bye. ”

Zhang Tong hung up the phone and lit a cigarette again.

Lu Yuan's reaction was completely different from what he imagined.

What does he imagine Lu Yuan to look like?

Nervous, nervous, and even insomnia and anxiety, after hearing that he called, he must have been worried in many ways, fearful in all aspects, and then symbolically comforted himself, while the two waited for the final box office to come out......

In fact?

was so calm that he couldn't do it, and shouted out the box office estimate of about 9 million on the first day.

Invest 7 million, 9 million on the first day......

How confident should this be a result to shout out?

This kid can do it!

He felt that Lu Yuan had a feeling of youth and frivolity, like his former self.

After smoking a cigarette, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in!"

"Director Zhang, come out and come out!" the assistant Xiao Li rushed over with the report.

"How much?"

"Seventeen million!"

"Whew!"

After hearing this final result, Zhang Tong breathed a long sigh of relief.

Seventeen million is already more than he expected, which is a good sign.

If the premiere has this result, then there is no problem at all with the overall box office breaking 500 million, and it is even very likely to compete for 600 million!

This is another new record in the box office history of a Chinese main theme movie!

You must know that Zhang Jin's box office of "Wolf Walking" in October last year was only 630 million!

When he thought of this, Zhang Tong was in a good mood.

Looks like it's time to get a good night's sleep.

"By the way, has Xiao Lu's "The Wanderer" been counted at the final box office? There are more than a few millions, and it is not ......" In a good mood, Zhang Tong couldn't help but start to care about Lu Yuan's "The Wanderer".

"Lu Yuan's "Wanderer" is ......" Assistant Xiao Li glanced up at Zhang Tong, his eyes slightly hesitant.

"How much?

"A thousand on the line.

"Surprise! The premiere of "The Wanderer" was well received, and the box office of 18 million is close to "Killing Alien", according to expert analysis, the final box office of "Wanderer" is very likely to be close to "Killing Alien"!"

"The rise of Chinese films? The spring of small-budget literary films is coming?"

"What are the other meanings behind the high box office of "The Wanderer"? Is it the arrival of a new era?"

"Amazing acting skills, three points of character control, Lu Yuan, are you really a novice in the entertainment industry?"

“......”

Morning.

When the final data of "The Wanderer" was exposed, the entire network exploded in an instant.

Major information websites, headline portals, news, Weibo, movie networks......

Countless news outlets are vying to report on Wanderer-related things.

As long as netizens stay, they can see that someone is discussing "Wanderer".

The box office results of "The Wanderer", the plot of "The Wanderer", the reputation of "The Wanderer" and Lu Yuan's acting skills......

Industry insiders were all frightened by the film's premiere box office results.

They unanimously felt that "The Wanderer" had a good reputation and the box office could not be too bad, but they didn't expect that this movie could turn into a shocking dark horse, and almost directly swiped the Chinese box office with a crushing attitude, forcing the Hollywood movie "Killing Alien" to ......

This is undoubtedly a miracle!

Like the original "Buried Alive", it is an incredible miracle.

"I have a hunch that this movie maybe, yes, it is possible to surpass "Killing Alien" After all, the reputation of "Killing Alien" is really poor, I don't want to watch "Killing Alien" a second time after watching it once, but "Wanderer" is different, I watched it once, and I even want to watch it again. ”

"Sympathetic, wait, so, "The Wanderer" may become one of the few films in our Chinese history that has suppressed Hollywood films?"

"It's too early to say this, after all, there is a gap of two million, and the key is to see the follow-up!"

"Wait!"

"What's wrong?"

"I suddenly remembered that Lu Yuan ran to watch the video of "Killing Alien" yesterday, this may be a foreshadowing!"

"Foreshadowing?"

"Yes! Let's keep watching, it is impossible for Lu Yuan to have no aftermoves, after all, this is constantly operating, and I think "Killing Alien" will be surpassed by "Wanderer". ”

"Well, yes, look at the box office the next day! Let's see if "The Wanderer" can suddenly make a force!"

"Well, I'm looking forward to it!"

On the Internet, netizens began to brush up the videos of Lu Yuan watching "Wanderer" and "Killing Alien" yesterday......

I don't know why, the more I brush, the more I feel like a ghost......

Of course, there are still a group of netizens who think that Lu Yuan will never do this for no reason!

This definitely has a deep meaning!

They naturally didn't know that Lu Yuan was now suffering from a severe cold, and he was hanging a needle with a runny nose.

I don't know how much Lu Yuan doesn't know how much he has at the box office until now......

It's a sad story.

Yes.

It's sad!
