Chapter 1432 The box office exploded
On the afternoon of the New Year, the family had a happy meal again and continued to play mahjong after dinner.
There is an automatic mahjong machine in Zhai Erhai's villa, which makes several people who like to play mahjong very happy.
My mother rubbed the table and said, "Tsk tsk, it's really good."
Li Rui said: "If you like it, I'll buy you one."
"Where is there a place to put such things at home?" My mother shook her head.
"Then I'll change you a big house." Li Rui said.
My mother still shook her head: "Forget it, it's so exhausting to pack up the big house!"
Li Rui said: "Then I will hire a nanny to help you clean up."
My mother glared at me: "What kind of nanny is hiring? I can't do anything without any skills? Li Rui, you can't learn from capitalists. We are ordinary families, not big players, and don't engage in those corrupt things!"
Li Rui quickly beg for mercy and promised his mother that no matter how much money he made in the future, he would maintain the proletariat's hard and simple style.
However, he still asked his parents indirectly, seeing if they would like to move to this villa.
The community in Dongfang Mingdu is semi-enclosed, with both property and security guards very responsible, with convenient transportation nearby, beautiful environment in the community, and high quality of neighbors. If parents move here, there will not be too much disturbances when Li Rui returns home next time.
My parents were still hesitating and were a little reluctant to part with their old houses and neighbors, but Li Rui believed that as long as they were informed with reason and affection, they would move here sooner or later.
Everyone was going to play mahjong. Li Rui was about to rest for a while when Xu Zheng called.
"Hey, Director Xu." Li Rui answered the phone.
Xu Zheng's voice was filled with excitement: "Mr. Li, "Too Embarrassing" has been completed, it has been completed!"
"It's done?" Li Rui was stunned, "Are you so sure?"
Although everything I saw at the cinema today proved that "Too Embarrassing" would definitely succeed, Douban's evaluation also proved this point, and Li Rui still felt that Xu Zheng's judgment was too early.
I didn’t even pass the first day, so I just said that, isn’t it a bit too optimistic?
Xu Zhengdao: "Don't you know yet? We can see the national real-time box office data in the backstage. As of 17:00 this afternoon, the box office of "Too Embarrassing" has exceeded 30 million!"
"Thirty million!" Li Rui was also surprised.
If he remembers correctly, the total box office nationwide every day in the days before the Spring Festival was only 30 to 40 million, and when the New Year holiday was preceded, it was only 60 to 70 million.
On the first day of the release of "Too Embarrassment", he had already won 30 million yuan in box office before the evening was included. This number is too exaggerated!
Of course, there is credit for Credit Suisse's free tickets. According to the data given by Xu Zheng, about 20 million of the 30 million box offices come from free tickets.
Even so, this data is still exciting enough.
You should know that the total box office of "Lost in the Road" by Xu Zheng and Wang Shuqiang was only 37 million!
Xu Zheng was very excited: "The box office is still rising, and now the reputation of the entire network has also come out. Most viewers think that there are enough funny points to shoot. When the word of mouth spreads, the box office will definitely rise again."
Li Rui smiled and said, "Director Xu, I'm very likely to have a box office of one billion when I watch "Too Embarrassment". Will you congratulate you on becoming the first director in Huaguo to have a box office of over one billion in a single film?"
Xu Zheng was shocked: "Mr. Li, don't say that. Who dares to think about the box office of one billion yuan? Besides, even if it exceeds one billion, you are the first hero in this film, not me!"
Li Rui said: "Then should we make a bet, just bet on the box office of "Too Embarrassing"?"
"How to bet?" Xu Zheng became interested.
Li Rui said: "I won't bully you. If we don't talk about one billion, we will use one billion box office to bet. If the box office of "Too Embarrassment" exceeds one billion, you will sign a contract with me and help me make five movies in the future. If it doesn't exceed one billion, I will make up for you a lot of difference, and I will give you a profit and dividend for 1.5 billion!"
When Xu Zheng heard this, he said that the bet was just a way to deliver money.
Losing has no effect on him. Anyway, it’s not about shooting movies for anyone, let alone Li Rui’s willingness to give money, no restrictions on shooting freedom, and even provides various ideas. In addition, Xingrui Entertainment is in a strong momentum now, and Tao Yuanyuan’s big backstage, he can’t even lean on it up!
It would be even better if he wins. According to the contract, as the director and the starring actor, he can get a certain proportion of the box office. If Li Rui makes up for the box office of 1.5 billion, he can get tens of millions!
"Mr. Li, you are too confident. Do you really think "Too Embarrassing" can exceed 1.5 billion?" Xu Zheng asked in surprise.
Li Rui smiled and said, "Of course I have this confidence. How about it, do you gamble?"
"You are not afraid of betting, what am I afraid of! At worst, I will sign a contract with you and make five movies for you!" Xu Zheng laughed and said, "This is something I can't ask for!"
The two made a small bet, and it doesn't matter if they win or lose.
Xu Zheng is quite talented. Although there are successes and failures in the next few movies, Li Rui believes that having his own prescient and helping him check will definitely make him burst out with creativity that is stronger than his previous life, and of course he can earn more box office returns!
After hanging up the phone, Xu Zheng sent Li Rui an internal account, which can log in to the theater system nationwide to view the box office in real time.
After Li Rui logged in with his computer, he saw that all the videos released on that day were listed. There were numbers behind each video and there was a row of red numbers at the top, which was the total national real-time box office of the day.
At this time, the total box office figure had jumped to 47.5514 million yuan.
Among the following films, the newly released "Taigui" that day was well-deservedly ranked first, with a box office of 32.1145 million yuan, accounting for 47.62%, and a scheduling of 35.51%. It can win nearly half of the box office of the day with just one-third of the filming. It can be said that the result of "Taigui" is quite impressive.
The second place is "Detective Sherlock Holmes 2: Shadow Game" on the ninth day of release, with a box office of 9.2075 million yuan, and it seems that there is a natural barrier between the two sides.
The third one is "Reverse War" released for seven days, with a box office of 8.1914 million yuan.
Then there are films such as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Happy Year of the Dragon", "New Birth of a Couple", "Crazy Dinners"... The gap between them and "Too Embarrassing" is even bigger, and they will only get bigger and bigger afterwards.
Li Rui pulled the page below and then brought it back. The box office of "Tao Hui" jumped a lot, reaching 33 million yuan.
The only suspense now is whether the first day of "Tao Hui" can exceed 40 million.
If it can be broken, it will create a new single-day box office record for Huaguo movies.
