A few days after Li Xiner tried to commit suicide to force Wei Ziting to marry her, Gu Weiwei's movie Sleepless and Dream of a Long Life 2, which was directed and starred by Ling Yan, were released at the same time and it was hard to tell who was better at the box office.
Dream of a Long Life 2 had a box office of 560 million yuan on the first day and Sleepless followed closely behind with a box office of 490 million yuan.
Most of the audience of Dream of a Long Life 2 went to watch the second movie because of the feelings of the first one. Probably because they had high expectations, after watching it, many people said that it was not as good as they had expected.
In fact, it was not as moving as the first one.
Apart from the fans, most of the audience of Sleepless felt guilty towards Mu Weiwei because of the misunderstanding, so they supported the box office to apologize.
But unexpectedly, the movie was so attractive.
Therefore, after watching the movie, they started to recommend watching Sleepless to the people around them.
[It has been a long time since I have seen such a well-made movie with such great acting skills. I must recommend it with five stars.]
[Those who watched Dream of a Long Life 2 and Sleepless say that they must watch Sleepless.]
[Are all the actors of Sleepless good at acting? Third Master's fans say that they have finally seen his acting skills.]
[Sleepless has surpassed Dream of a Long Life 2 in terms of plot and acting skills.]
…
Dream of a Long Life 2's ratings kept dropping, while Sleepless had zero reviews.
On the sixth day of the movie's release, Qiao Lin announced the box office data to everyone.
"Now there are two pieces of good news, which one do you want to hear first?"
"Both are good news, what's the difference?" Fu Shiyi complained.
Qiao Lin said, "We have surpassed Dream of a Long Life 2 at the box office yesterday."
Normally speaking, the box office would be the highest on the first day and then it would keep dropping.
But a few days ago, the box office of Sleepless did not exceed that of Dream of a Long Life 2, but the box office did not drop much. Yesterday, it surpassed Dream of a Long Life 2.
Everyone applauded. This was a movie that everyone had poured their heart and soul into. Everyone was happy to see such a result.
"Isn't it inevitable that we will surpass them? What's the other good news?" Fu Shiyi asked.
Qiao Lin smiled mysteriously and glanced at the crowd before announcing.
"I just received a call that the Lugano Film Festival has invited us to attend the award ceremony."
"If it's a special invitation, then there might be a prize to be won." Fu Shiyi said excitedly.
If they could win another trophy at the Lugano Film Festival, they would be the biggest winner in the film industry this year.
Song Yu and the others spoke again after a moment of joy.
"But we still have to promote the movie. We can't all go to Lugano."
Fu Shiyi pointed at Gu Weiwei and said.
"Of course it's our director and female lead. It's either the Best Director Award or the Best Female Lead Award. You have to bring back an award for me."
The movie was in the critical promotion period and the promotional tour could not be cancelled. It would take at least three days to go to Lugano and back.
So the one who could represent the crew the most was undoubtedly her, the director and the female lead.
Also, she was undoubtedly the one who was most likely to win the award.
Gu Weiwei did not refuse but said straightforwardly.
