Time ticks.

Three months later, it was summer.

The second part of "Infernal Affairs" avoided the peak period of May 1st and was released on June 2.

Because this day is also Little Cherry's birthday.

A week before the release of the second part, Li Zhifan posted a picture of Zhou Ke through his Isr, and his lower abdomen was already visibly bulging, although there was no text, it was enough to explain everything.

Isr is the second largest social platform abroad, second only to Renrenshu, with up to 900 million users in the world, but because this software is separated by walls in China, only a small number of Chinese people have downloaded and used Isr, also to see the content posted by their favorite idols on it.

There are too many domestic celebrities who have opened Isr social accounts, and Li Zhifan opened it not because of the big environment, but because he works in California, everyone uses Isr to send documents, and he can't always use his mailbox, so he also opened an account.

On the day the account was opened, many domestic fans downloaded over the wall to follow Li Zhifan, and with foreign fans, his followers also exceeded 6 million.

This number is a real and effective number of followers, and the domestic fast blog is different, those on the fast blog are often eight or nine hundred million hundreds of millions of followers, it seems too scary, but the higher the number of followers, the higher the proportion of zombie numbers.

For example, a Kuaibo account with 10 million followers, posting a new content that moans without disease, leaving more than 10,000 messages in one day, and more than 10,000 followers.

The news of Zhou Ke's pregnancy was soon transmitted back to China.

The stars in the circle have posted congratulations and congratulations, and the fans are even more carnival, they have been waiting for this news for too long, as if they are more excited than Li Zhifan and Zhou Ke.

After a week of heated discussions, the arrival of Infernal Affairs 2 followed.

"Infernal Affairs 2" is a prequel to the first part, but there are no young actors, it is still Li Zhifan and Chen Guanjun, but the two of them have shaved their beards, shaved their heads, and lost weight.

Although the two were filmed together, the audience couldn't see it at all, and even found that Li Zhifan and Chen Guanjun had both become handsome.

In fact, during the filming of the first part, in order to show maturity and charisma, both of them did some tricks and feet on their faces, especially Li Zhifan, in addition to hairstyle and stubble, there were also some small details on his face that could not be seen by the naked eye, but in the second part, Li Zhifan's face was clean, coupled with light effects and post-production, at first glance there was still a feeling of idol fresh meat.

Not to mention Chen Guanjun, he is known as a prosperous beauty in Xiangjiang, in the first part, he even did his eyebrows, and after the stylist put a lot of effort on his face, it looks like the pores are very thick, and there are even blackheads on the wings of the nose.

This time, no one bets against Li Zhifan, and there is no pressure of New Year's blockbusters when the first film was released, but there are still competitors.

The biggest name in the same period is the new film "SWAT Pioneer" brought by Xiangjiang director Wang Quan.

Among all the directors who go north to make money, Wang Quan is the most bizarre one, other directors are going higher and higher, although their works are not very good, and there are bad movies, but they are still seeking new changes.

However, Wang Quan is different, in his early years, he also made god films and won many Xiangjiang Academy Awards for Best Director, but after the age of 35, the movies he directed were not as good as one, and the score fell ladder.

After entering the mainland, Wang Quan seems to be more unscrupulous and has become a symbol of making bad movies.

How vulgar it is, how low-level it is, but it can still pass the review of radio and television.

A few years ago, he had a movie called "Beauty Picture", which I thought was an ancient film by looking at the name, but it was a modern movie, and the story content was also very confusing, telling the story of an antique painting being snatched from and over in the hands of several international donors.

If you tell a story well, it is also an interesting subject, but Wang Quan directly gave up storytelling, and used handsome men and beautiful women to attract attention, and there are many nude shots to fill it.

Over the years, I have been constantly eating the old book, the old movie story of the 80s, changing the actors, changing the local background, the story has not changed at all, and adding a year after the old movie name has become a new movie.

As a result, the god films he made at the beginning were also ruined by these dog-tailed sequels or low-level remakes.

It's just that a director like Wang Quan, someone still asks him to make films every year, the investment is still very large, and the people invited are all domestic first-line traffic, and he has become a veritable fan movie.

As early as 88 years, Wang Quan filmed a police film of "SWAT Force", although the reputation is not as good as his god films, but it is still okay.

This time, "SWAT Pioneer" is a continuation of the story of "SWAT Force", the protagonist has become the children of the main characters in the original version, some are no longer policemen, but have become businessmen and teachers, but under the orders of their fathers, the male protagonist who supports the identity of the police from various aspects participates in solving the case.

In an interview before the release, Wang Quan said that there are still gunfight scenes that everyone is looking forward to, but there are more wit scenes.

In this way, the audience has already guessed what the approximate content is according to Wang Quan's previous urine, and it must be that the case was solved in love.

This time against "Infernal Affairs 2", he is also unlucky, the former has the first 2.2 billion box office as the base, and this second part is long-awaited by everyone, and it is not comparable to Wang Quan's bad movie at all.

"SWAT Pioneer" was released eight hours earlier than "Infernal Affairs 2", gathering a group of mainland traffic stars, but only got 7 million box office, this data is a tragedy for any director of the same status, but Wang Quan was not ashamed, but thanked a circle of people on Kuaibo, as if he had received great glory.

"Infernal Affairs 2" was released at 8 o'clock that night, and the national premiere won more than 20 million at the box office, and by midnight, it had won 60 million.

After only six hours of release, it won such a result, and the whole country was shocked.

At this time, Li Zhifan was in Los Angeles, preparing a birthday party for Xiao Cherry.

This year's birthday party was more lively, and many employees of Fantasy Works were invited to come and have a party at home.

The birthday present that these people have prepared for Little Cherry is an animated short film in which the protagonist is a girl named Little Cherry, and the content is a bit of an adventure.

Little Cherry doesn't understand any storylines at this age, but as long as she sees the color picture, she will be happy, which is a great birthday present for her.

"Dad, why are there so many people here today?"

After watching the short film, Xiao Cherry realized that there were many people at home today, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"They're all here for your birthday!"

Li Zhifan said with a smile, "Go and play with the children! They are all waiting for you!"

Little Cherry is dressed like a little princess today, wearing a fan bubble skirt and little red leather shoes, and two pigtails on her head, like a doll.

The children she invited were all from an early education center, and they usually played in a community, and they were also young.

"Hmm!"

Little Cherry stood up and beckoned to the children who were watching cartoons with her, completely looking like little masters, and commanded: "Let's go to the yard to play!"

“OK！”

Watching a group of children run out of the yard, and then running around in the crowd, Li Zhifan was happy.

At this time, the mobile phone rang twice, it was a message from Zhao Yiduo, reporting to him the box office results of "Infernal Affairs 2".

"Not bad!"

Li Zhifan was deeply gratified, but he was not shocked.

Although this box office result was somewhat unexpected at the beginning, it was also reasonable.

The main reason is that the release time was well chosen, coupled with the word-of-mouth brewing of the first part during this time, which triggered the box office effect of the second part.

Immediately, Li Zhifan called Zhao Yiduo and asked him to send a message with his fast blog, saying that if the box office can exceed 1 billion within two weeks, then the third part will be released in advance on the National Day.

In the original plan, the third step was to be released next year, but now Xiao is becoming more and more interested in the acquisition intention of Timeline, so the release plan of "Infernal Affairs 3" has to communicate with radio and television and China Film in advance.

The appearance of "Infernal Affairs 2" has set a new box office record this year, even surpassing the results set by the first part at the beginning of the year.

On the other hand, the box office of "SWAT Pioneer" won 17 million on the first day, and it only broke 100 million a week later.

Although the word-of-mouth is too bad and the content is too toxic, there are still such achievements, which shows that there is too much shortage of movies in this time period, and it is impossible for the audience to just watch "Infernal Affairs 2" all the time.

And after the second week, the box office of "SWAT Pioneer" began to pick up, and the daily income remained stable at about 5 million.

The more this is the case, the more netizens complain about it.

"Can this film still maintain a box office of five million?"

"And it's been going on for days, and there must be ghosts in it!"

"Hehe, it's supposed to be buying the box office, right?"

"Wang Quan's movie can be money laundering, and their Xiangjiang directors are the best at doing this kind of thing. ”

"Investigate! The state public procuratorate and law should come out quickly and find out the truth!"

"Don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about the acting skills of these actors! It's so embarrassing, even if you usually shoot TV series, the troubled waters of movies are also wading, and the word pit money is completely written on your face!"

"Infernal Affairs 2" was released at 8 o'clock that night, and the national premiere won more than 20 million at the box office, and by midnight, it had won 60 million.
