"Really?" Su Yin asked happily.
"Really?" Guan Fei chuckled. "To be honest, I've also studied movie box office. There aren't many movies like ours that have seen their ratings rise after just a few hours of release."
"What's the score?" Lin Xuan'er asked with concern.
"It's 9.3, and the five-star ratings are increasing." Guan Fei smiled happily, as if she were the director of this movie. "I just sent a message to Director Jiang to thank him on your behalf."
"Guan Fei, you are so reliable." Wang Xingrui praised immediately.
"High ratings are a good thing," Tang Yue said, still more concerned about the economic value: "How's the box office? We should still be number one, right?"
"Of course, as of 9 a.m., 'Moonlight Girl' still holds the top spot with 69 million yuan. 'Tiger Goes Down the Mountain' is second with 55 million yuan. 'My Rebellious Daughter's Rebellion' is third with 51 million yuan."
"The gap has widened." Su Yin felt that the chicken drumstick in her hand smelled even better. "Is there any problem with our movie making a profit? Brother Yang has put in so much effort and hard work for this movie. We would feel very guilty if we lost money."
"Should we have made our money back?" Guan Fei wasn't too sure. "I remember our film didn't cost that much!"
After eating and drinking their fill, the four of them returned to their accommodation. Their WeChat messages kept ringing along the way.
"It's amazing," Wang Xingrui waved her phone. "So many people have sent me messages to congratulate me, some of whom I don't even know."
"It's the same for me." Tang Yue laughed. "There are also a few people claiming to be investors, saying they want to fund a movie for me. It seems that the performance of Moonlight Girl has indeed exceeded expectations."
In fact, what these four girls don’t know is that their movie is not just about exceeding expectations, but completely subverting the ideas of most people in the industry.
They didn't expect that a youth campus film could be shot like this.
There are no exaggerated filters or bloody plots, just simple storytelling.
Even if Zhou Yiyang showed it to them first, they would not invest in this kind of movie.
It doesn't fit their big data analysis of users at all.
However, the current market performance has slapped these people in the face.
There is actually a market for such a movie, and it has achieved both fame and fortune.
Not only were there many people congratulating and flattering them on their WeChat and Moments, but Zhou Yiyang's phone was almost blowing up with calls.
"Oh my god," Zhou Yiyang rubbed his head. "Can you guys please stop calling? My mouth is almost dry!"
These people came to him with almost the same goal: to invest in his next film. They also promised not to interfere with his creation and filming.
Zhou Yiyang naturally agreed first, since it was just a blank check. Once the money was actually delivered, they could talk about it later!
He still needs investment at this stage, after all, it is impossible to keep making low-budget movies.
Big Goose Film and Television, which occupies a dominant position in China's streaming media, also extended an olive branch, but they are very pragmatic and want to buy the broadcasting rights of "Moonlight Girl".
"Of course it's no problem, but my movies will all be on Moonlight, so I can't broadcast them alone. Well, just come and sign the contract tomorrow."
Zhou Yiyang sat on the sofa and poured himself a glass of red wine in a very good mood.
The market is so real. No matter how pessimistic they were before, as long as you have a bright future now, capital will continue to flow to you.
This is Moonlight Girls' first work other than a single after their debut.
Its success means that this popular girl group has resisted the curse that popular movies are bound to fail, and it also means that Zhou Yiyang can not only write songs, but also write scripts.
If those big companies and big capitals could look down on Yi Yang Entertainment before, now they will pay attention to this thriving bud.
As for what they will do, it is unknown.
At 11:45, Jingtian No. 1, the moderator of the Tenabo forum, finally posted his box office record post:
Mainland China on Friday, December 26: The most powerful youth film in history, aiming for a billion box office?
"Moonlight Girl", with a Douban score of 8.7, Maoyan 9.3, Tao Piaopiao 9.4, and Weipiao 9.3, is the strongest Chinese youth film in history, with a box office of 78 million on the first day.
With such a high audience reputation, it is worth looking forward to its performance. Perhaps it will be the box office champion next year. The total box office is expected to reach 1.2 billion, which will make Yiyang Entertainment a big profit.
"Tiger Goes Down the Mountain," Wen Hu's new film, is a prime example of a film that compromises with commercials. Its current ratings are inflated and unreliable. With a first-day box office of 62 million yuan and an estimated total of around 300 million yuan, it barely breaks even.
"My Daughter's Rebellious Period," another "traffic movie," has seen its Maoyan score plummet to 8 points, seemingly unable to recover. Its first-day box office was 53 million yuan, and its total is expected to be 150 million yuan, with no hope of breaking even.
