However, Song's father was also a smart man. He knew that Song Yuzhe's problem was caused by Gao Yan's men, but he didn't mention it at all. Instead, he asked Gao Yan for help in a humble manner!
But will Gao Yan help?
Of course not.
He had previously made advances towards Xiao Zhuo, but out of consideration for Song Yufei, he hadn't bothered with him much.
Now, the other party almost ruined Song Yufei's life.
Not killing him outright was already an extraordinary act of mercy, so why would they save him?
"Sorry, Uncle Song, you should ask a doctor to help with saving lives, it's no use asking me!" Gao Yan shrugged.
Upon hearing Gao Yan's refusal, a hint of disappointment flashed in Song Dongting's eyes: "Actually, he deserved his fate. I'm sorry, Mr. Gao, I was just grasping at straws in my desperation. I hope you don't mind!"
Gao Yan was somewhat surprised by Song Dongting's reaction; he had originally thought the other party would be furious!
However, after a moment's thought, he understood what was going on!
It's estimated that Song Dongting also knows some of his situation. He was able to force the Zuo family to submit, so he must be more powerful than the Zuo family. The Zuo family didn't even need to take action; Zuo Yang alone almost bankrupted the Song family.
Song Dongting was certainly not unaware of this.
Therefore, even though he knew Gao Yan had messed with his son, he dared not vent his anger!
"I don't mind at all, how could I mind!"
Gao Yan responded with a smile, saying that since the talks had broken down, there was no need to continue. Therefore, Gao Yan also took his leave, and Song Dongting personally saw him off to his car!
Back at Lingxi Garden, both Xiao Zhuo and Song Yufei were there.
"Song Yufei, that's not fair of you!"
Gao Yan joked.
Song Yufei looked a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Gao Yan, my dad didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
When Song Dongting told her not to go with him, she vaguely guessed what her father was planning.
"Your dad asked me to help you treat that traitorous brother!"
Gao Yandao said.
"So, did you agree?"
"No!"
Gao Yan shook his head: "Why save someone like that!"
"Thank you!"
"When did you become so polite?" Gao Yan joked. "By the way, you owe me a meal."
"Okay, not just one meal, ten meals are no problem!"
A smile returned to Song Yufei's face.
Before we knew it, it was already the end of March.
Star Entertainment's second film has been released.
Star Entertainment's first film, "Brothers in Distress," was only an A-level film script, but it still grossed 1.2 billion yuan at the box office.
This drama, "All the Way to the Clouds," is an S-level script.
Gao Yan had seen the finished film in advance and found it engaging from beginning to end. The comedic scenes felt natural and perfectly integrated into the plot. Of course, the lead actors also delivered exceptional performances.
Therefore, Star Entertainment is very confident about this film, believing that it will gross at least 1 billion yuan.
But that is indeed the case.
On March 31, "All the Way to the Storm" was officially released.
Despite spending tens of millions on advertising, the film grossed 98 million yuan on its opening day.
On April 1st, despite an increase of 5 percentage points in screenings, the film grossed 123 million yuan. On April 2nd, the screening rate did not increase, but the box office reached a new high of 131 million yuan.
Thus, "All the Way to the Storm" has grossed 352 million yuan at the box office in its opening weekend.
Seeing the box office potential, and with no notable films available in April, the screening rate was increased again starting from the second week.
And "All the Way to the Clouds" did not disappoint theaters.
Even during the weekdays from Monday to Thursday, the daily box office revenue never fell below 100 million yuan. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, the box office revenue reached a new high of 389 million yuan.
Ten days after its release, "All the Way to the Clouds" had grossed over 1 billion yuan, reaching 1.161 billion yuan, and the final box office prediction for the film was 1.5 billion yuan.
Strangely, by the third week, the box office of "All the Way to the Storm" did not drop precipitously, but instead remained quite stable.
After some investigation, everyone discovered that despite the immense popularity and high viewership of "All the Way to the Storm," there were no pirated copies available online.
Therefore, the box office revenue for the four working days of the third week was 72 million, 78 million, 80.5 million and 81 million respectively, with a total box office revenue of 1.48 billion.
It's about to break the predicted 1.5 billion.
So the box office prediction changed again, to 2 billion.
As for why this movie wasn't pirated, it's all thanks to the Red Emperor.
Since the release of "All the Way to the Storm," he has been monitoring the entire internet. If any pirated copies appear, he immediately removes them and teaches those who upload pirated copies a lesson!
When Friday arrived, "All the Way to the Storm," which had been in theaters for half a month, actually made a comeback, with its box office exceeding 100 million yuan again!
Now, breaking 2 billion is a sure thing!
At this moment, Li Chaonan called Gao Yan.
"Brother Yan, we've discussed it and decided to hold a celebration banquet on Monday. Are you coming?"
It broke 100 million again on Friday, and it's estimated that it will break that mark again on Saturday and Sunday.
That would bring the box office close to 1.8 billion. With just over ten days left, they could easily rake in more than 200 million. Therefore, everyone at Star Entertainment is full of confidence in breaking 2 billion!
Gao Yan said, "I won't be coming."
Li Chaonan pleaded, "Brother Yan, please give me face and come."
Gao Yan: "Give me a reason?"
Li Chaonan: "Brother Yan, as the saying goes, 'He who takes a man's money is bound to do so.' Yan Qingcheng has invested in two of our dramas, and both of them are full investments. She only wants 20% of the profits, while we don't spend a single penny and still get 80% of the profits. You could say we've made a killing!"
