Chapter 189: 449 million
On Sunday, January 31, the last day of the month, the newspaper collected 60 million on the same day, and the total box office reached 376 million!
Although the box office has only increased by 1 million compared to Saturday, which is also a rest day, it can be seen that the potential of "Thai Embarrassment" has reached its peak, and it can be expected that the box office of tomorrow's work will dive significantly.
However, the increase of this million alone is not as simple as a number, from 50 million to 60 million is a hurdle, and it is a big hurdle.
Just like "Hero" back then, this movie officially brought the domestic film industry into the era of 100 million yuan, and the box office of 100 million yuan is no longer out of reach.
Since then, there have been one or two movies with a box office of more than 100 million almost every year, and there are more and more movies with a single-day box office of more than 10 million.
It can be said that the impact of the single-day box office of "Thai Embarrassment" exceeding 60 million is not under "Hero" at all.
After all, the previous single-day box office record was 23 million for "Let the Bullets Fly", and before "Let the Bullets Fly", the highest single-day box office of many domestic blockbusters did not exceed 20 million.
Now the record of "Thai Embarrassment" has given domestic filmmakers hope, 30 million, 40 million, and even 50 million or 60 million in a single day.
With a record, there is a goal to move forward, and there is a determination to hit the record.
At this time, even everyone hopes that "Thai Embarrassment" can continue to raise this record, the higher the better.
Although they all know that this number will eventually be broken by "Avatar", it is a record for Hollywood blockbusters, and it is of little use to them.
However, "Thai Embarrassment", which broke out for eight consecutive days, like most movies, ushered in a big dive on the new working day, Monday.
On Monday, the first day of February, "Thai Embarrassment" grossed 38 million on the same day, a drop of 37 percent.
As soon as this number came out, it was destined to disappoint those who hoped that "Thai Embarrassment" could continue the box office myth.
However, at this time, the total box office of "Thai Embarrassment" also came to 414 million, which is only 2 million away from the second-grossing "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic".
Although it achieved a box office of 400 million within nine days of its release, it is dazzling enough... No... It can be said that it is against the sky.
However, now there are some negative reports on the Internet or in the real media.
The content is basically ""Thai Embarrassment" lacks stamina!"
""Avatar" is about to be released, and "Thai Embarrassment" may be cut in half!" and so on.
For such a situation, not only Li Mu, but also those who know a little bit about the inside story in the entertainment industry know what is going on, it is nothing more than wanting to take advantage of the shrinkage of the box office and the release of "Avatar" to suppress "Thai Embarrassment", so as to strive for a good schedule for their films.
However, Li Mu is really not worried at all, judging from the news fed back by the theater chain, the box office decline trend of "Thai Embarrassment" is very flat, basically every city and every time period has declined, which shows that this decline is only because of the long working days and screening time.
After analysis, the box office will continue to decline in the next two days, but it will stabilize at 30 million.
As for the release of "Avatar" two days later, it depends on the situation.
And the fact is as expected, on February 2, Tuesday, "Thai Embarrassment" once again reported 35 million, a decrease of less than 10%, and the total box office was 449 million, rising to the second place in the box office in film history, and only "Let the Bullets Fly" was in front.
On February 3, the day before the release of "Avatar", Li Mu received an invitation letter from China Film Group, inviting him to UME Huaxing International Cinema to attend the premiere of "Avatar".
And the signature of this invitation letter is Han Sanping, and the entire invitation letter is all handwritten by him, which is not something that ordinary people can get.
You must know that there are three kinds of invitations this time, the first one is printed in batches, and the payment is also made by Huaying Group or Huaxia Film Distribution Company, and the objects sent are some ordinary first-line stars and CEOs of small film and television companies
Although the second type is also printed, the signature is indeed Han Sanping's handwriting, and those who can win this honor are relatively famous or qualified first-line stars and CEOs of medium-sized film and television companies.
As for the third one, it is the one in Li Mu's hand, which is all handwritten from beginning to end, and those who can be qualified for Han Sanping to send this kind of invitation are generally the CEOs of large film and television companies such as Tianwang Superstar and the Three Giants and Hai Run.
Li Mu didn't expect that he would have this qualification, and he was inevitably a little excited for a while, after all, this was an invitation letter from the leader of the Chinese entertainment industry.
"Everyone go back and have a good rest, come to the studio in the afternoon, and remember to change into better clothes!" "Not only Li Mu received the invitation letter alone, but Lu Yi, Sheng Yilun, Chen Qiaoen, Deng Chao, and Chen He all have them, but they are all printed invitations, as for Peng Yuyan, Liu Shishi, Yang Mi, and Zhao Liying, the four of them can follow Li Mu in, after all, it is not a problem to bring a few people in this level of invitation.
"Okay, Mr. Li!"
"We'll be here on time!"
Everyone agreed, and then they quarreled again.
"Mimi, what do you say I should wear, or we all wear skirts!"
"Of course it's wearing an evening dress, the kind that has to be unique!"
"But we don't!"
"Oh, Anla, there is something you can't buy in the capital, so if you can't do it, just rent one!"
"Won't it be too late, if it's too late, it's not good!"
"Then wear a skirt, let's go back and I'll help you pick one up!" The voices of the two women became quieter and quieter, as if they were debating which dress to wear.
But Peng Yuyan was thinking vigorously at that point, "Why don't you send me an invitation... Don't send me... Don't send it to me!"
For his reaction, everyone had expected it, and no one paid attention to him, otherwise it would be troublesome if he pestered him to complain.
Li Mu glanced at it, everyone was very excited, only Zhao Liying sat in the corner with an aggrieved face.
"What's the matter, aren't you happy to go to the premiere, you see everyone is very happy!" Li Mu looked at this innocent little girl, who didn't seem to have said a few words since he brought her into this industry, and couldn't help but blame himself.
Among these newcomers, Peng Yuyan and Sheng Yilun are good friends, Yang Mi and Liu Shishi are good friends, she is the only one alone, and it is inevitable that she will be a little lonely.
"Ahh Mr. Li, it's nothing!" Zhao Liying, who was in a daze, was startled when she saw Li Mu coming.
"You still said it's okay, you have two words written on your face, do you want me to give you a mirror?" Li Mu said with a smile.
"I... I just don't want to go to the premiere!" Zhao Liying whispered.
Oh, don't you want to go? This is strange, ordinary people still want to participate in this kind of occasion, not to mention that this is the premiere of "Avatar", but Li Mu looked at the clothes on her body and was a little relieved.
If Li Mu remembers correctly, she has been wearing this dress for several months, celebrities are not like ordinary people, especially female stars, and a set of clothes will never be worn for a long time.
Then there is only one explanation, money! She probably sent all the money home, and Li Mu also knew that her family situation was not very good.
Li Mu thought about calling Xu Min. Let him take Zhao Liying to pick out a dress.
"Mr. Li, no need... No need!" Zhao Liying, who was seen through her thoughts, was a little embarrassed, her face flushed, and she said again and again.
"I'm not giving it to you, I'm afraid that you will lose the face of our studio when you go out!" Li Mu said solemnly, no matter what her reaction was, she left.
Looking at the back of Li Mu, the person who helped her in her most difficult time, Zhao Liying's eyes were a little wet.
"Mr. Li, thank you!"
