Chapter 33: The Record Maker

As the night deepened, even bustling Tokyo gradually fell into silence, and in the luxury suite of the Hilton Hotel, Lao Liu pushed open the window, and the oncoming night breeze dispelled the dullness and brought a burst of refreshment.

Looking at the night view of Tokyo condescendingly, Lao Liu returned to the computer in the room and refreshed Bai Xiaofei's Weibo, probably because of the release of "Kung Fu", there were many moviegoers in the discussion area, and they were discussing their intuitive feelings after watching the movie!

"It's worthy of Bai Xiaofei's movie, the boss didn't disappoint us!"

"It feels like a dream, it's so beautiful, five star recommendation!"

"It's... It's probably a brain fan! ”

Lao Liu pursed her lips, although she said so, but in her heart, she felt that such a miserable brain fan was really cute.

She herself has a lot of brain fans, for example, a bad movie like "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", she can also praise the "peak of appearance" and "the gospel of the appearance association"...

"Who's the first bird, come out one step! Okay, according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, let's go head-to-head... The aunt with the green onion, come here... My laugh is very strange, this point makes me laugh so much that I almost slip on the tire..."

"Mainland action movies are usually full of seriousness and piety, but Xiaobai is contrary to this serious genre. In his own way, he reminds the audience that the art of cinema is not only about nobility and sacrifice, but also about being funny. ”

"Fa Ge, Honggu, just these two people working together again is enough to be worthy of the ticket price!"

After sweeping her eyes down a few lines, Lao Liu simply closed her phone and stared at the screen for a while, half an hour later, she looked up at the time, then clicked on her phone, and looked at the box office of "Kung Fu" on the second day of release: 640 million!

Cumulative box office: 1.29 billion...

By the way, click on the box office prediction: 8.3 billion...

That's...

8.3 billion, which translates to more than $1.1 billion in dollars...

The first movie in the mainland to break one billion dollars at the box office?

Suddenly it occurred to me that Xiaobai had told her in person: "... You're a little older, otherwise, I'll definitely look for you as the heroine! ”

My wife is five years older than you!

……

"Haha, Xiaobai, you have broken the record again!"

The release of "Kung Fu" has attracted the attention of relevant stakeholders, and the most concerned is of course Penguin Pictures, which is related to the big plan of the "Kung Fu Universe"!

Two days after its release, the box office directly broke 1.2 billion!

Sun Huaizhong hurriedly called Xiaobai, and his tone was a little respectful...

Can you not be respectful, 1.2 billion in two days of release, what is the concept?

Unless the movie is banned, breaking the record of "Wolf Warrior 2" is just around the corner!

"Fuji Xun will increase the publicity of the film!" Sun Huaizhong promised, "We will invest most of the resources of this Chinese New Year file into "Kung Fu"!" ”

"Hmm...," Xiao Bai tightened his bath towel and nodded, "The studio will fully cooperate with you." ”

“… What are you doing? How do I hear the sound of water? ”

"Big guy, I'm taking a shower!"

“… Haha, I'm sorry to delay you, you wash it slowly! ”

Sun Huaizhong hung up the phone...

Xiaobai looked at his mobile phone speechlessly, and after a while, there were more than 30 phone calls, and the time when he undressed was eleven o'clock in the evening, and then he was always wrapped in a bath towel to answer the phone...

An hour and a half has passed!

“… And who? ”

I plugged my phone into the charger and walked into the bathroom barefoot, the phone rang again, and I scolded, Xiaobai still walked over, this time it was Miss Yang Lan: "Hey!" ”

“… I know close to 1.3 billion..."

"I was very excited, I answered more than 30 phone calls, and now I just want to take a shower and go to bed!"

"Huh... Ah, I miss you too, hurry up and go to sleep! ”

yawned and hung up the phone, Xiaobai was ready to continue the unfinished work, and as soon as he left with his front foot, the phone rang again...

Fortunately, this time it was > "Did you sleep?" ”

“(~﹃~)~zZ”

With an expression back, Xiaobai closed his phone...

……

Although the feedback of various statistics proves that the market response of "Kung Fu" is strong, the studios, including Penguin Pictures, have not weakened the fierce publicity momentum at all, and various promotional measures have emerged one after another.

The on-site interviews in the theater went to the famous theaters in some cities, and the news on the hour also inserted a lot of interviews with ordinary audiences.

Of course, those who can appear on TV must be praised!

At the same time, they also 'coincidentally' met some celebrities who watched "Kung Fu", and these people were also full of praise for the film.

For example, Xu Guangtou in San Francisco's Shanghai was interviewed, the famous actor who participated in the guest appearance of "Kung Fu", will definitely not be stingy with his praise, not to mention that the film is really excellent, it will not affect his fame at all, of course, he also said, 'It's just that my character has too little time to appear!' ’

Wanda International Cinema, Huang Bo just walked out, happened to be blocked by reporters, and also talked about his viewing experience, "From beginning to end, I have met a dream, and it often makes people excited, this is definitely the best film in recent years, I strongly recommend everyone to go and see it, there will definitely be a huge surprise, Bai Xiaofei is really amazing!" ”

The cost of publicity has increased to 200 million!

Fuji Xun and Bai Xiaofei's studios used all possible means to arouse the curiosity of the audience and urge them to enter the theater, and the more times the better.

Xiaobai also announced some tidbits from the filming on his Weibo, such as the scene where Honggu contacted and scolded people, for example, the scene of Xiaobai's fitness...

But as long as it can play a propaganda role, Xiaobai doesn't mind at all!

As long as it is beneficial to the film, he can take the lead without hesitation when promoting!

Unless it comes to the bottom line – hype scandals!

Xiaobai's own appeal is strong, and the number of his fans ranks among the top five Weibo celebrities!

These people are desperately applauding the movie, and they can't wait to share their favorite movies with people all over the world.

They recommend their favorite movies to others through various channels...

The overwhelming propaganda bombardment, the explosive word-of-mouth, the shouts of celebrities, coupled with the fame and appeal accumulated by Xiaobai in five years, have attracted a large number of audiences to enter the theater and pay for "Kung Fu"!

And the quality of the movie itself will make most viewers feel that the trip is worth it!

And then what?

They will recommend more people to go to the theater to watch the movie...

In this case, even if the box office on Sunday is relatively lower than on Saturday under normal circumstances, "Kung Fu" also has 540 million box office receipts...

Well, three days after its release, the box office of the first weekend was released: 1.77 billion!

once again refreshed the record of the first weekend in mainland film history, even in the whole region, it can be ranked in the top five...

The production cost of "Kung Fu" is 420 million yuan, plus 200 million yuan for publicity, almost 620 million production costs, 1.77 billion, and it can already be announced that the cost will be recovered...

What makes Penguin Pictures even happier is that the outbreak of "Kung Fu" will obviously make the "Kung Fu Universe" a signboard!
