"Boss Xiong, Boss Xiong, the box office results for the first day of our 'Happy Summer Tour' are in! Twenty-two million! That's pretty good!"
A short while later, Zhou Yu rushed in excitedly from outside, bringing the good news to Xiong Tang:
"Mr. Xiong, as long as we maintain the upward trend, I think it shouldn't be a problem for the total box office to exceed 300 million..."
Upon hearing this, Xiong Tang, who had been wearing a dark expression, finally softened and said:
"Xiao Zhou, congratulations! Twenty-two million in box office on the first day is a pretty good number for a recent film!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Xiong! It's all thanks to you. Otherwise, we might not even have made it!"
Zhou Yu flattered him with a bright smile, completely forgetting the scene of being scolded so harshly just now.
Upon hearing this, Xiong Tang smiled smugly.
you do not say!
This film, 'Happy Summer Trip,' was entirely spearheaded by him, and he was essentially the executive producer.
The credit is naturally the greatest!
Moreover, because of Xu Lu's situation, some people on the company's board of directors already harbored resentment towards him.
Fortunately, the movie has now achieved some success.
Even if I did make a mistake before, it can be wiped clean.
Thinking of this, Xiong Tang suddenly asked:
"By the way, what about that kid Xu Lu's 'Summer's Depression'? How much did it gross?"
Zhou Yu was taken aback for a moment, then said:
"Mr. Xiong, you don't really think that their terrible movie is comparable to ours, do you?"
Although I didn't ask, I think with their cast, they could only make a few million at most.
Moreover, with the pressure from our 'Happy Summer Tour,' their box office will definitely decline day by day, and they'll be pulled from theaters sooner or later.
Xiong Tang nodded, realizing he had been overthinking things.
What potential could a film project have from a young guy who was recently sidelined by his company and then left?
Not a famous director, no famous actors, and even the names are strange; it would be strange if it didn't flop.
Just as Xiong Tang was lost in thought, Zhou Yu spoke up from the side:
"Boss Xiong, I'll tell everyone in our crew the first day's box office figures right now, and I'll also find someone to promote it."
"Sure! You decide what to do, but the first day's box office is only the first day, so we need to keep a close eye on it afterward."
Let the actors do more promotion; if they can bring the total box office to 300 million or even 400 million, that would be ideal!
Xiong Tang began to give instructions.
In fact, based on his understanding of movie box office...
As long as there are no major mistakes, the total box office should be no problem reaching 300 million.
As for how high the upper limit can go, that's really hard to say!
"However, 300 million in box office revenue is actually enough. It's enough for me to turn things around in the company's board of directors."
I want others to know that even if the company fires some people, it won't affect its profitability in the slightest!
Xiong Tang thought to himself.
On the other side, Zhou Yu took the first day's box office data and began to inform the actors of the 'Joyful' film crew.
On the one hand, it was to announce good news.
On the other hand, they also wanted the actors to use this initial data to promote the show.
For example, the second female lead, Liu Miao.
She was overjoyed when she heard that the box office for "Happy Summer Tour" exceeded ten million on its opening day.
"As expected of an established film and television company like Xia Lifei, their movies are guaranteed to be box office hits."
If I had chosen that production team called "Charlotte's Depressing Day" back then, I'd probably be completely ruined now.
Liu Miao secretly rejoiced.
It's worth noting that the production teams of "Happy Summer Trip" and "Summer Depression" approached her almost simultaneously.
Moreover, they were all given the role of the second female lead.
On the surface, the production team of 'Charlotte's Depression' offered higher salaries and raised more funds for production.
However, after careful consideration, Liu Miao ultimately chose the "Happy Summer Trip" production team assembled by the established Xia Lifei Film and Television.
"In retrospect, my choice was absolutely correct."
Fortunately, the production team of "Summer's Depression" didn't agree to my request for the lead role, otherwise I would have been finished!
Liu Miao patted her chest, feeling a little scared as she thought to herself.
Because if the production team of "Charlotte's Depression" really agreed to her request for the lead role, she might have agreed too.
Looking at the dismal box office figures now, I bet they feel like crying.
"By the way, I wonder how much that movie grossed. Oh well, I'm too lazy to ask. It probably won't be much!"
Upon reflection, Liu Miaogang's initial curiosity quickly dissipated.
...
"How much, Brother Feng, is our opening day box office?"
In the office of Daxu Culture Media Company.
Producer Feng Xiaoxia, Lin Hui, and assistant director Lao Zhou all returned here after watching the movie.
At this moment, the other two were watching Feng Xiaoxia searching for information, and Lin Hui couldn't help but ask directly.
Soon, Feng Xiaoxia clenched his fist loudly and said excitedly:
"The statistics are out. Our first-day box office was a little over 25 million, ranking fifth!"
Furthermore, among all the movies newly released in the last three days, our opening day sales are number one!
"Very good!"
Hearing this, Lin Hui and Lao Zhou couldn't help but exclaim with joy, and at the same time, they felt completely relieved.
Although they were very confident about 'Charlotte's Depression', the box office results were the most powerful proof.
The strong box office performance of "Fall in Love Like a Star" proves that everyone's hard work has paid off.
