Chapter 209
The film was released in the theaters of major shopping malls across the country.
When the two movies “Dying to Survive” and “Fortress of the Magic City” were premiered at the same time.
In a hidden and luxurious private club in Beijing.
Wang Zhongjun, Wang Zhonglei, Feng Xiaogang, Na Ying, Donkey Face, Chen Arthur… and other stars and investors in Beijing and Shanghai.
They were gathered together, staring at the first box office data compiled from theaters across the country.
At this time, the real-time box office of “Fortress of the Magic City” reached 45 million in the first show!
And the real-time box office of “Dying to Survive” is only 37 million now.
This data has errors and is not accurate.
But it can still be seen from the first box office.
“Dying to Survive” is obviously inferior to “Fortress of the Demon City”
It is a pipe dream to break through the 3 billion box office!
The bet agreement has reached 60 billion, Su Mo is sure to lose!
Chen Arthur, who jumped up on the spot with excitement, hugged the socialite next to him and kissed her hard.
“Hahaha! The first box office was only 37 million, Su Mo’s grandson is doomed to lose!”
Feng Xiaogang, holding a valuable cigar, said: “Arthur, congratulations, you easily made a net profit of 2.5 billion, which is comparable to the money your father earned in his lifetime.”
Chen Arthur laughed happily: “Uncle Feng, you are too kind, didn’t you also make a net profit of 500 million this time!”
Feng Xiaogang blew a smoke ring: “Everyone made money, everyone made money, hahaha!”
Na Ying, who had been haggard all day due to pressure, instantly recovered his spirits: “Come on! Let’s celebrate with a glass of champagne!”
Wang Zhongjun was also in a very good mood: “I’ll book Tianshanglou tonight, please have fun.”
At this time, in the eyes of these people, winning this bet agreement is already a hundred percent.
On the other side…
After the premiere.
Liu Yifei, Zhao Liying, Wu Jing and other guests watching the ceremony.
Knowing that Su Mo and his team were anxiously waiting for the box office news, they definitely had no time or mood to entertain everyone.
So, after saying a few words of congratulations on the box office success, they left.
If the box office of “Dying to Survive” can exceed 3 billion and win the bet agreement.
Then the stars and directors who came to the premiere today and chose to stand with Su Mo will definitely have a celebration banquet afterwards.
Yida Cinema…
Su Mo and Yang Mi, Wang Xiaoyan, Xu Zheng, Tan Zhuo, Huang Mao and others.
Sitting in the lounge specially prepared by Wang Si Chong, waiting for the box office of the first show to be counted.
Under the high pressure of the 60 billion bet agreement, Sister Mi was in a state of confusion and paced back and forth nervously.
Even the super rich second generation Wang Si Chong couldn’t calm down and kept asking the manager whether the box office had been counted.
But Su Mo was calm from beginning to end.
Lying on the sofa chair, happily watching Douyin short videos.
Sometimes he looked at the beautiful lady with black silk stockings, and sometimes he looked at Odebiao pulling bananas, and he was very happy.
Wang Si Chong admired Su Mo’s calmness.
If the 60 billion bet was placed on him, he would be anxious and restless.
But Su Mo was calm as if he knew the result in advance.
Soon, after the first show ended.
After statistics from major theaters across the country, the managers hurriedly sent over the box office results.
The morning premiere box office of “Fortress of the Magic City”: 45 million.
The morning premiere box office of “Dying to Survive”: 37 million.
After seeing this number, Yang Mi felt her head buzzing!
Wang Xiaoyan’s pretty face also turned pale in an instant.
Wang Si Chong, who has opened many theaters at home, also looked solemn.
The first premiere can reach 37 million. Logically speaking, this number is definitely not low.
If the word of mouth is not bad, the first day box office will be able to break 100 million!
The total box office may even hit 1 billion.
For a new director, it is already very impressive to make a movie with a box office of 1 billion in the first time!
But if we use the box office data of the first release as a reference, it is almost impossible for “Dying to Survive” to break 3 billion.
The 60 billion bet agreement is basically equivalent to losing.
This time, Su Mo will pay for his arrogance.
Seeing Yang Mi, who was breathing rapidly and her face was pale and bloodless.
Su Mo was not panicked at all, but smiled and comforted:
“Sister Mi, it’s only been three hours since the release, why are you in a hurry?”
If he remembered correctly, in his previous life
, “Dying to Survive” and “Fortress of Devil City” are two extremes.
“Fortress of Devil City” spent a lot of money on publicity in the early stage, and with the top streamer Lu Han, it deceived many audiences.
The momentum of the box office on the first day looks very fierce.
But, it is only limited to the morning.
Why?
Because after those big wronged audiences tried the poison in the morning, they collapsed in the afternoon.
The audiences who rushed to watch the movie excitedly found that this was a bad movie to the extreme.
That was really going with excitement and returning with disappointment.
The audiences who were cheated of movie tickets vented their anger on Douban, Douyin, Weibo and other platforms.
The bad reviews on the Internet are really devastating!
The leading actor of the movie, Lu Han, dared not say a word when he was scolded.
When the wall falls, everyone pushes it, and when the drum is broken, everyone beats it!
The box office on the second day was directly cut in half, which is unprecedented!
No!
To be precise, it was cut from the neck down!
The investors lost all their money and lost everything!
However, “Dying to Survive” is the exact opposite of “Fortress of Magic City”.
In the past life, there was little publicity for the movie and no traffic stars, which was not enough to cater to the popcorn fast food market.
As a result, the box office of the premiere in the morning was… very poor.
But after watching it, the audience was shocked.
Still wanting more, the movie was praised overwhelmingly on platforms such as Douban, Douyin, and Weibo.
With rave reviews and explosive word of mouth.
In the afternoon, the box office of “Dying to Survive” soared.
But at this time, Sister Mi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot: “Mo Mo, what should we do!”
“Our premiere was only 37 million, not even as good as “Fortress of Magic City.”
“Do we have to…”
The last word of losing, Sister Mi didn’t even have the courage to say it.
After Wang Si Chong hesitated for a moment, he said solemnly:
“Mr. Su, if you need it.”
“We, Yida Film and Television, can help increase the box office.”
Hearing Wang Si Chong’s proposal, Yang Mi’s beautiful eyes showed deep entanglement and struggle.
In order to make the data look good, it is common in the film industry to increase the box office.
Even when Su Mo decided to make a movie, in order not to embarrass him, Yang Mi was ready to increase the ticket sales for him to save face.
But under the current gambling agreement of up to 60 billion, countless eyes are watching.
As long as you dare to increase the ticket sales, the other party will soon find out.
With Su Mo’s current status, if he can’t afford to cheat, his reputation will be stinking ten miles away…
Hearing Wang Si Chong’s bad idea, Su Mo refused on the spot: “No!”
“I am a rule maker, and I don’t follow the rules? Then do I still have face?”
When it comes to this,
Su Mo looked at the box office of “Fortress of Devil City” which was 45 million at its premiere.
His eyes were filled with contempt, and he sneered and said:
“I saw him build a tall building, I saw him entertain guests, and I saw his building collapse!”
“The good show has just begun, and the exciting part is still to come.”
“Why are you in such a hurry…”
