After half past two in the morning on July 21, Chinese time, the Internet began to gradually become lively, and after three o'clock, it began to become more and more lively.

At this time, for many parts of the world, especially the Americas, it is actually still on July 20, and it is even just noon.

However, as time goes on, more and more places around the world begin to enter July 21.

When night finally falls in Europe, when the first rays of sunshine begin to shine on July 21 in Japan, and when Chinese sanitation workers begin to show up on the streets before dawn to start their day's work.

This world, or that world.

This July 21 is no different from every other day in the past.

Finally, the Americas region has gone through the whole day of July 20 and ushered in their early morning of July 21.

With more than 2,300 movie theaters in North America open late into the night, "The Matrix" has finally ushered in its last midnight advance in the world.

At this time, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon on July 21 in Japan, and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon in China - the whole of Asia, the scope of the release of "The Matrix", was in the light.

At this moment, in a sense of time, "The Matrix" really ushered in simultaneous screenings around the world - in all the countries where it was released in the first wave!

At this moment, countless people are waiting with anticrative antiquation to check in, countless people are watching the movie with red faces, and countless people are walking out of the screening hall with great excitement, discussing something with their companions excitedly as they walk.

Of course, on Saturday, there are still many people who are at home at the moment, sharing their experience of watching movies last night or this morning with their friends on the Internet, or on a chat app, or posting their own movie review posts on forums.

And of course, there are still many people who are facing the fact that they are extremely painful - because they came a little late, the movie tickets for "The Matrix" all day today are gone.

What's even more tragic is that some people run four or five movie theaters in the city where they live, and then sadly find that all the movie tickets for "The Matrix" in all the movie theaters in the whole city have been sold out!

In the late-night movie theaters in the United States, some screening halls are barely full, but the attendance rate of most screening halls is less than half, or even less than 30%, and even worse, in some movie theaters in non-prosperous areas or remote small towns, the attendance rate of "The Matrix" in advance is less than 20%!

However, almost everyone who walked into the cinema and was sitting in their seats watching the movie at the moment had a look of excitement on their faces.

Almost everyone, their eyes widened, and they couldn't take their eyes off the big screen in front of them.

Outside the movie theaters in Japan, South Korea, China, and many big cities in Southeast Asia, many people have no choice but to walk out of the movie theater because they have not bought movie tickets, and they have no choice but to leave the movie theater amid the accusations and complaints of their friends or girlfriends.

Even in many other places, restaurants, bars, malls, etc., you can hear people complaining helplessly that tickets for "The Matrix" are really hard to buy!

Then, night began to fall in the east.

The dawn is beginning in Europe.

It's starting to get into the middle of the night in China.

North America finally ushered in their first rays of sunshine on July 21st.

At this time, in fact, there are all kinds of discussions and posts about "The Matrix" on the Internet in China, Japan, South Korea, and other Eastern countries, which have been overwhelming.

And in the Western world, with the end of the midnight early show in Europe, and then the end of the midnight early show in the United States and Canada, in the Western Internet world, the discussion about "The Matrix" has suddenly become louder - it is not overwhelming for the time being, but almost every comment is full of praise and amazement, and every conversation is full of sincere and highly recommended, saying that it is extremely eye-catching, but there is no doubt.

…………

China, Shuntianfu.

July 22 at one o'clock in the morning.

Minghu Culture, in the general manager's office, the lights are still on.

Qi Jie was holding two printed copies of the materials in her hand, and she was looking at them intently—in fact, it was just a few pages, and she had been reading it for a long time.

There is no doubt that at this time period, there is only one thing that can make her so attentive and obsessed with - the box office report of the movie! The box office report of "The Matrix".

The box office of the first day of Japan, South Korea and the Philippines has come out.

Coupled with the early screening, on July 21, "The Matrix" received a total of nearly 830,000 viewers in Japan, with a cumulative box office of 965 million yen, equivalent to $11.49 million.

In South Korea, the figure is $4.16 million.

In the Philippines, the figure is $1.32 million.

There is no doubt that they are the number one box office of the day in the local market.

And this is also the best single-day box office result achieved by a Chinese film in these three countries!

Even, even if this single-day box office result is put in the history of the box office of these three countries, it can successfully rank among the top ten!

And on the Internet in Japan, South Korea and other places, its audience word-of-mouth evaluation is almost one-sided!

Although in fact, this can be regarded as something that has been expected for a long time, but when she really got this report card, Qi Jie was still indescribably happy in her heart.

Be proud of him, be proud of him, and even worship him from the heart!

Worship to the five-body cast!

He's so powerful, he's so amazing!

No one can do it, so many excellent filmmakers and directors in China for so many years can't do it, he can do it!

He even walks forward step by step, so that you can see for yourself how he actually did it!

So you willingly prostrate at his feet, look up at him, obey him, be infatuated with him, and then willingly say whatever he wants, and what he says, then do it!

There has never been the slightest suspicion or distrust!

What should I do if I have different opinions for the time being?

Listen to him!

From the point of view of logic, from the law, from all aspects, his approach is really a little undesirable, what should I do?

Listen to him!

Then, you'll find out, yes, that's what you should listen to!

Because, he's succeeded again! And you've succeeded again!

Japan's single-day box office exceeds $10 million, even in a box office like Japan, it is definitely heavyweight, or rather, it is a very small number of movies, big productions, big directors, super first-line stars, and super good word-of-mouth can only get results.

In the past, except for a very few films in Japan, most of this achievement belonged to Hollywood super blockbusters - "Titanic", "Jurassic Park", "Lord of the Rings" series, "Harry Potter" series, and so on.

And now, on the first day of the release of "The Matrix", the single-day box office of $11.49 million!

Qi Jie held the box office report in her hand and looked at it again and again.

Every time I look at it, I can't help but shake my head, sigh and smile.

Suddenly, the computer beep sounded.

She put down the report in her hand as soon as possible, shook the mouse to exit the screensaver on the screen, and entered the mailbox.

Sure enough, it is a summary of box office statistics.

clicked on, at the first glance, the number 10336 came into view, she let out a long breath, and her face showed an inexplicable brilliance.

Over 100 million!

Although judging from last night's midnight advance and this morning's and afternoon's film schedule and attendance, the idea of "breaking 100 million" has always been in the throat, but after all, as long as you are a little conservative and analyze, before the results come out, you still don't dare to have too much expectations for whether you can break 100 million.

With a single-day box office of 90 million, there is definitely no problem. But if it breaks 100 million, there is still considerable suspense.

It wasn't until now, when the box office was counted, that she was finally convinced: it really broke 100 million!

Look carefully, all day on July 21, plus the advance show after 0:00 last night, "The Matrix" was screened on more than 5,000 big screens across the country, with a total screening rate of 53%, and the total number of moviegoers throughout the day was as high as 4.73 million, almost full!

And so, a new record was set!

In the history of Chinese films, and in the history of Chinese film box office, the first movie with a single-day box office of over 100 million!

One hundred million three hundred and thirty six thousand!

At this moment, seeing this number clearly, Qi Jie didn't even have the heart to continue to watch the box office of other movies, as well as the specific scheduling data and box office situation of major theaters.

You can save those things until you wake up.

At this moment, she felt that she was so excited that she couldn't help herself, and she was even a little dizzy and drunk.

So she stood up and walked a few steps up and down her office, her face a red color that only comes after drunkenness—and suddenly it seemed to her that she should have a drink.

But there is no alcohol in my office.

So she just thought about it for a moment, then stood up, found the key, went out, walked to the door next door, took the key to open the door, went in, and took out a bottle of whiskey from Li Qian's wine cabinet that she didn't know what brand it was, and poured herself a large glass.

Take a sip.

It's spicy.

Top panic.

Along the way, from the mouth, to the throat, to the stomach, it was hot all at once.

It's so enjoyable!

Take another bite.

Swallow it directly with a grunt.

It's spicy.

It's so enjoyable.

She raised her hand and touched her face, feeling that it suddenly became hot, so she unconsciously began to giggle - breaking 100 million!

took out his mobile phone and subconsciously began to dial, but suddenly thought, forget it, don't call.

It's not that I'm afraid of waking him up, and I'm not afraid that he will have an unbearable headache because of being woken up, but it's mainly ...... He won't be as excited as he is!

Qi Jie knew him too well.

Even if it is an exciting moment such as a single-day box office breaking 100 million, if you call him, he will only listen to it in that calm tone, "Oh, it's over 100 million, right? Okay, it's good!"

It's at this time that he's so boring!

Obviously, it is the time when others worship him to the point of throwing himself to the ground, and it is obviously the time when people can't wait to hold him and not let go, hearing his words is like a basin of cold water poured down his head - he will use his calm tone, if he is in person, he will also use his calm expression and demeanor to tell you, oh, it's okay, it's good!

As if this event was ordinary, ordinary, normal, not worth mentioning at all, and not worth rejoicing and celebrating at all!

So, don't fight.

Put away the phone, glance left and right, nestled into the sofa very comfortably, holding a glass of whiskey in his hand, and took another sip, finally couldn't help but cough, but the smile on his face became more and more.

She thought to herself: It would be more comfortable to nest like this for a while.

Just like that, in his grades and aura, intoxicated for a while.

Think about it again, when "The Door of Life and Death" was released, Qin Wei was arrogant, but in fact, the highest single-day box office of "The Door of Life and Death" was only 40 million!

Look at our family, from beginning to end, don't care about big things, it's always so light!

Hum!

But after a few minutes of excitement, it gradually calmed down, and then I thought about it, yes, there really is nothing to be too excited about.

After so many years of layout, so many years of steady and steady progress, it is indeed time for us to harvest.

Just like the super hit of "The Gate of Life and Death" back then, back then, with the accumulation of the past years, as soon as everyone heard that it was Qin Wei's blockbuster, they all went crazy to the cinema.

Therefore, "Huang Feihong", which was released at the same time, has a super high reputation, Li Qian's strong popularity bonus, and the unique groundbreaking of kung fu movies, but it still can't do "The Gate of Life and Death", which is obviously inferior to "Huang Feihong".

And now, from "My Sassy Girlfriend", "Wong Fei Hung", "Red Sorghum" and "Gourd Baby" all the way, of course, including the big hits of "Big Shot" and "Wong Fei Hung's Boy to Be Self-Improvement", and even including the grand slam of "Red Sorghum" at the Berlin Film Festival, Li Qian's prestige and appeal as a film director have reached a height that almost no one can reach.

"The master's product must be a high-quality product!" This concept has definitely been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people!

As long as it is Li Qian's new movie, and it is also said to be a very awesome sci-fi blockbuster, even if there is no theater trial meeting, almost all theaters in China will definitely be determined at the first time: we will give the largest film schedule!

As long as it is Li Qian's sci-fi blockbuster, there are millions, or even tens of millions, of movie fans across the country who will run to buy tickets as soon as possible! Even if they stay up late to watch the early screening, it will be unprecedentedly full!

In addition, in recent years, starting from the "Legend of the New White Lady" that year, Minghu Culture's ability and strength in film and television special effects have become stronger and stronger, and it is more than a step higher than all other special effects studios and special effects companies in China, and it is enough to compare with the most outstanding and excellent special effects companies in Hollywood.

Then, the shooting team, photography, lighting, sets, martial arts, art, etc., etc.

Of course, the main reason is that all of this is integrated in Li Qian's hands, and he is obedient and obedient, pointing where to fight! Therefore, such a team with no shortcomings, under the leadership of Li Qian, the big demon king, has filmed such a perfect work that is almost flawless.

It's only normal that it can achieve the results it has now.

But after coming to my senses, why am I still so uncontrollably happy and excited?

At this moment, I just want to worship him!

What to do?
