"Hey, Xiaoxia, have today's box office figures come out yet?"
Xu Lu didn't deliberately delay; he answered the phone directly and asked.
Feng Xiaoxia on the other side was clearly very excited and shouted:
"That's right! Mr. Xu, today's box office figures are in, it's 42 million, which is 17 million more than yesterday!"
I initially thought that maintaining the box office figures from the first day would be good enough, but I didn't expect the box office to increase again today.
"Okay, I understand!"
Xu Lu said with a smile, his voice still calm:
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now!"
"Um... okay, Mr. Xu, then you should get some rest!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaoxia sighed helplessly and could only say that.
Mr. Xu on the other end of the line was incredibly unenthusiastic; even upon hearing such good news, his tone remained completely calm.
That's a single-day box office of 42 million, ranking fourth among all currently showing films!
Although we haven't made it into the top three yet.
However, considering the current situation of 'Charlotte' and its rising box office momentum, it is entirely possible to expect it to be in the top three.
As for currently holding the top spot at the box office, even Feng Xiaoxia can hardly imagine it.
Because the other side's daily box office has reached nearly 80 million, that's terrifying!
"How is it? How is it? Mr. Xu, are you very happy after hearing the news?"
Seeing Feng Xiaoxia hang up the phone, the people from Daxu Culture all looked over.
"Ahem, of course I'm happy, but Mr. Xu remains as composed as ever, showing no sign of it at all!"
Feng Xiaoxia coughed awkwardly before speaking.
Upon hearing this, the people around did not believe it and said:
"No way? The box office is approaching 50 million in a single day, and President Xu hasn't even cheered twice?"
"Yes, when I heard the news just now, I couldn't control myself at all and shouted for a while!"
"Don't even mention you, everyone was shouting and yelling just now, they were just too excited!"
"At first, I was worried that our 'Summer's Depression' box office would be lower than yesterday's."
Who would have thought that today's box office would almost double yesterday's opening day box office? It's truly astonishing.
...
"Now those haters on the internet have nothing to say, right? Our 'Xia Luo Te Yu Men' relies on strength."
"Hahaha, it feels so good to finally be able to hold your head high, doesn't it? Doesn't it?"
"By the way, Brother Feng, what's the box office figure for 'Happy Summer Tour' today? Didn't they boast that they'd surpass us and become the highest-grossing new release?"
"Yeah, how much did 'Happy Summer Tour' gross? It probably didn't do as much as ours, right?"
...
Hearing the questions from everyone, Feng Xiaoxia chuckled and said:
"From now on, everyone should look further ahead and not focus on such defeated opponents."
"The 'Happy Summer Tour' only grossed 15 million today; they simply don't have the ability to piggyback on our success."
Upon hearing this data, everyone nodded in agreement:
"I thought this 'Happy Summer Trip' would last a few days, but I didn't expect it to be so disappointing."
“Our ‘Summer Depression’ is thriving, while ‘Happy Summer Trip’ is declining.”
We had 25 million yesterday and 42 million today; they had 22 million yesterday and 15 million today.
"Brother Feng is right. We don't need to compare ourselves to them anymore. We should look at the top three box office contenders."
"Hehe, Daxu Culture is about to become famous. We were the first batch of veterans to join the company!"
...
On the other side.
Seeing that Xu Lu had hung up the phone, Reba, who hadn't been able to hear clearly even when she leaned in close, immediately looked over with her big eyes:
"How much? What was the box office?"
"Not much, I heard it's forty-two million!"
Xu Lu put his phone in his pocket and said casually.
"It really wasn't much... What? Forty-two million?"
Dilraba, who was just about to chime in, suddenly widened her eyes after regaining her senses and said:
"Xu Lu, you just said forty-two million? My God! Wasn't the opening day box office only a little over twenty million?"
"Yes, what's the problem?"
Xu Lu asked calmly.
Dilraba was taken aback, then said irritably:
"What's the problem? I... sigh, I really can't do anything with you. Forty-two million and you still say it's not much?"
Do you know how many movies have a total box office of less than 40 million after their release?
If those people knew the expression on your face just now, I think they'd want to beat you to a pulp.
Xu Lu chuckled and said:
"That's only if they can beat me. With my fighting ability, I can take on twenty of them!"
Dilraba blinked, preparing to retort.
But then I suddenly remembered that the guy next to me was actually pretty good at fighting, so I decided not to argue with him about this, and said:
"By the way, how much did Xia Lifei's 'Happy Summer Tour' gross? It should be less than yours, right?"
"It's less; I heard they made 15 million today."
Xu Lu relayed the data he had just heard from Feng Xiaoxia to Reba verbatim.
However, upon hearing this, Reba was dumbfounded. She did some mental calculations and said:
"'Happy Summer Trip' is 27 million less than 'Summer Depression'. You call that less?"
Xu Lu, are you not good with numbers? Why do you seem to react differently than most people?
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who's different from a normal person?"
Xu Lu curled his fingers, preparing to flick the other person's forehead.
But Reba quickly escaped, giggling as she said:
"You're just not like normal people. You want to knock me on the head? No way!"
"Okay, if there's no door, I'll open a window for you!"
Xu Lu glared at him, his expression fierce, and chased after him.
Startled, Reba turned and ran, shouting as she ran:
"Help! Someone help me! There's a pervert trying to hit me on the head..."
Unfortunately, no matter how hard she shouted at night, it was no use. In the end, Xu Lu still managed to flick her forehead a few times.
"Hmph, Xu Lu, all he knows is bullying people!"
Dilraba angrily bared her teeth and brandished her claws, but given the vast difference in their fighting strength, she was utterly helpless.
The two playfully teased each other for a while, then Dilraba suddenly exclaimed:
"Xu Lu, do you think those people who kicked you out before are all dumbfounded now?"
...
As Dilraba said.
At this moment, at Xia Lifei's headquarters, a group of people were completely dumbfounded as they looked at the newly released box office data.
'Happy Summer Tour' grossed 15 million today, 7 million less than yesterday!
'Summer's Depression' grossed 42 million today, 17 million more than yesterday!
On the real-time box office charts, 'Happy Summer Tour' has dropped out of the top ten.
On the other hand, 'Charlotte's Depression' has risen to fourth place in the daily box office rankings!
