In the past 2013, the total number of box office theaters in China reached 3,849, the number of screens in the country reached 18,195, and the number of theaters in the country reached 45. Wanda Cinema Line Co., Ltd., Shanghai * Hailian and Cinema Line Co., Ltd., and China Film Xingmei Cinema Line Co., Ltd. are the top three cinema companies in China.

At 7:30 p.m., nearly 100 accountants in the headquarters building of China Film Group were accounting for the data summary from the terminals of thousands of movie theater ticketing systems across the country.

The chairman and general manager of China Film are waiting for the results on the spot.

Five minutes later, a chief accountant shouted, "The results are in."

Han Sanye, chairman of China Film, hurriedly walked over and asked, "How much?" ”

The chief accountant took a dense statistical table and handed it to Han Sanye, and said happily: "As of seven o'clock in the evening, the total number of screenings of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" was 12,580, the total number of people was 1.208 million, the average ticket price was 35 yuan, and the total box office was 125.68 million. ”

The general manager of China Film said to the chairman: "Third master, your speculation is still very accurate. They were also speculating on the box office before, he speculated that it was 80 million, and only Han Sanye said that it would break 100 million.

Another vice premier said with a smile: "It's still our third master who is quick to see and move, and Huayi's old Wang is estimated to regret it soon." ”

Han Sanye laughed, took out his mobile phone and sent the results to a few old friends and Golden Hammer Film and Television.

At the same time, Wang Xu was fighting with Wu Jing, Zhao Rongrong, Qian Feng, landlords, and several other agents and screenwriters. When he saw the text message, Wang Xu stood up violently, was overjoyed, and loudly proclaimed to everyone: "Comrades, good news." Han Sanye of China Film sent a text message, and the number of viewers of our movie premiere was 1.208 million, and the total box office was 120 million. ”

"Yay~~"

"It worked! It worked! ”

"We're awesome!"

Suddenly, the room was thunderous, like a volcanic eruption!

This achievement is so dazzling, there are few films that exceed 100 million yuan on the first day of the box office, if it is a comedy starring Wang Xu. That's not surprising, but it's a kung fu movie, and it's his first time directing.

Wang Xu once again created a miracle, and once again created a box office miracle with everyone, at this moment everyone forgot that they were stars, bosses, screenwriters, forgot the difference between men and women, and hugged each other happily. Happy congratulations.

The news that the mainland box office exceeded 100 million on the first day of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake" appeared on the headlines of Weibo. Zhen Zaidan saw it for the first time, although he had expected that the box office of the film would be very good, but it was still a bit surprising to break 100 million. Without thinking about it, he dialed Wang Xu's mobile phone.

"Hey, Brother Dan!"

"Congratulations, the box office broke 100 million on the first day, amazing!"

"Hehe, thank you, thank you!" Wang Xu said happily: "I want to thank you for your support, Brother Dan." I would like to invite you to join the second and third parts of "Romance of the Dragon and Snake". ”

"Yes. You don't say I want to play. Zhen Zidan agreed in one bite.

"That's great." Wang Xuxi said: "Actually, I have wanted to invite you for a long time, before the results of the first part come out, I dare not invite you, because if you fail, there will be no second or third part." ”

"Understood, when are you going to start filming the second part?"

"Let's have the Spring Festival. This year because of my wife's situation, I am going to take a break for a while. In a few days, I will give you the scripts of the second and third parts, among which there are two biggest bosses, one is Ba Liming, the king of martial arts, and the other is Changmei, the leader of the God Organization. I want you to pick one of them. By the way, I have a celebration banquet in a few days, please help me hold one if you have time. ”

"Okay, no problem, see you another day."

"Okay, I'll hang up."

At the same time, He Jiong, Xie Na, and Li Weijia, who were eating supper in the bar, also saw the news.

"Wow!" Li Weijia exclaimed and said: "The sledgehammer is really getting more and more awesome, breaking 100 million, amazing!" ”

Xie Na suddenly mentioned: "Sledgehammer hasn't been to our base camp for a long time, right?" ”

He Jiong replied to Xie Na's words while calling Wang Xu: "Since I was on "Big Talk" once in April last year, there has been no more. Xie Na was just about to speak, and the phone went through.

Wang Xu's laughter came from the phone, "Teacher He, what are you doing?" ”

"And Weijia, and Xie Na have supper at the bar next to the radio and television." He Jiong smiled: "Congratulations on the box office hit." ”

"Hey, thanks." Wang Xu remembered something and said, "Hey, how are the preparations for your "Gardenia Blossoming" going?" ”

"I was trying to ask you for help with this."

"Your business is my business, if you want me to help, just say it."

He Jiong smiled slightly and said, "Then I won't be polite to you, I want you to help me make a cameo." ”

"Okay, I have time in the second half of this year, you can call me at any time."

"Okay, wait a minute, Xie Na wants to talk to you."

Xie Na took the mobile phone, and the first thing he said was to ask: "Sledgehammer, when will you have a celebration banquet?" ”

"That's at least a week from now."

"I just came up with an idea, you haven't been to the base camp for almost a year, why don't you cooperate with our show at the celebration banquet?"

"Hey, I didn't expect this, I think it's okay."

"Then let's say so first, tomorrow our staff will go to your company to discuss the details."

Xie Na's idea was unanimously approved by He Jiong and Li Weijia, and when they reported it to Taili, they also received the support of the director.

Besides, after Wang Xu hung up the phone, he personally called his wife, Chen Long, Fa Ge, Liu Dehua and other eldest brothers to report the good news to them.

Wu Jing was also answering the phone and making phone calls, and they didn't quiet down until after one o'clock in the morning that night.

"Romance of the Dragon and Snake" is on fire, Wu Jing is on fire, baby is on fire, Zhao Rongrong is on fire, several outstanding supporting roles in the film, like Zhang Jin, Zhang Zhen, Wang Baoqiang, Li Chen are all very popular with the audience, and Wang Xu, as a director, is already so popular that he can't be more popular.

The popularity of the film surpassed that of "The Grandmaster" at the beginning of the year, and "Ip Man" starring Zhen Zaidan in 08, and the mainland box office exceeded 400 million three days later, not only that, but it also set off a movie-watching boom overseas, and the box office in three days overseas also exceeded 400 million.

In recent years, if there is a movie in China that has caused more popularity and influence than "Romance of the Dragon and Snake", then only Wang Xu's own "Journey to the West" will be there, and "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" is not as popular as "Dragon and Snake".

A week later, the film grossed 800 million in the mainland and 900 million overseas.

It has hit the hearts of Chinese filmmakers like a stimulant, especially those in the industry who are worried about the growing difficulties of kung fu films, as if the success of the film is their success.
