Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing did not know about what had happened on the Internet in Hua Xia.
After the performance, they flew to New York with Eliot, David, and Beth.
Elliot took a sip of his fruit juice and said, "Xiao, your performance was amazing. I dare say that your movie 'The Grandmaster' will become a hit with just this Kungfu feast tonight. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words. Haha, to be honest, I am confident about the Asian market. It's mainly in the European and American regions. My old rival, Paramount, has prepared two blockbusters to snipe me. They're coming at me aggressively. "
Xiao Yunhai was indeed worried about the popularity of 'The Grandmaster' in Europe and America.
Previously, the two trailers that he had meticulously made had been posted on the Internet. The response was average, and the expectation level only reached 60%. It was far lower than Paramount's two thrilling blockbusters.
Now, he could only hope that this party would be able to add points to 'The Grandmaster'.
Zhao Wanqing was very clear about the situation of 'The Grandmaster'. She comforted him, "Hubby, don't worry too much. I believe that the box office of this movie will be very good."
David smiled and said, "That's right. Not to mention other things, just the hundreds of millions of fans that you and your wife have will be able to support the box office of this movie. Don't worry, when we arrive in America, I will help you promote it on my homepage. "
Eliot and the others nodded at the same time, indicating that they would also help promote it.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Thank you so much, everyone."
The plane first flew to Los Angeles. After dropping off Eliot and the others, it flew directly to New York.
At eight o 'clock in the morning on June 3rd, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing walked out of the New York International Airport.
A middle-aged man in his forties walked up to them and said with a smile, "Mr. Xiao, Miss Zhao, hello. I am Brandon Dreiser, the vice president of the International Soccer Association. It is a pleasure to meet the two of you."
Xiao Yunhai shook hands with him and said, "Mr. Draisel, sorry to keep you waiting."
Brandon Dreiser shook his head and said, "Not at all, I just arrived as well. Mr. Xiao, Ms. Zhao, we don't have much time, so let's get in the car first. "
When they got in the car, Draisel explained the shooting process of the MV to him and said, "Mr. Xiao, we originally planned to finish the MV in one day, but due to various conditions, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to complete it."
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing looked at each other and said, "Our movie will premiere on June 6th. If it takes too long, we can only wait until June 7th to shoot."
"That won't be necessary. It should be done by tomorrow afternoon. Sigh, if it weren't for the fact that there hasn't been a suitable theme song for the World Cup, we wouldn't have to be in such a hurry, "Dreiser said.
Xiao Yunhai said, "If you guys had already found the right song, then I wouldn't have had to do anything."
Draisel laughed and said, "This is what Hua Xia meant by fate. We invited more than ten world-renowned musicians to write songs, but unfortunately, none of them met the requirements. We originally considered asking you, but you are the richest man in the world, and you are already very busy. We didn't want to bother you. If we knew you were so interested in the World Cup, we would have asked you directly. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Actually, I can only be considered a fake fan. I usually only pay attention to the Hua Xia football team. I don't know any of the players from other countries. "
Draisel said, "This fully shows that you are very patriotic."
The two of them chatted for a while, and soon, they arrived at the football field and met the director and other staff.
In addition, there were hundreds of extras. They were all paid to be there, and they were real fans. They only needed to act as themselves.
As for the fans from other areas, they could only use post-production effects.
The MV director naturally didn't dare to delay Xiao Yunhai, a young and legendary director. He explained his thoughts and said, "Mr. Xiao, what do you think?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "No problem."
Just like that, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing filmed the MV in New York for two days. At night, they re-recorded the song before returning to Los Angeles. It was already June 5th, and there was only one day left before the premiere of "The Grandmaster."
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing returned to the villa. After dinner, Xiao Yunhai rushed to Yunqing TV Station without stopping.
The gala of "The Grandmaster" would be broadcasted that night. Other than the songs, almost all the Hua Xia songs had been translated into English.
As it was broadcasted in Europe and America this time, the ratings of the gala would directly affect the box office of "The Grandmaster." Therefore, Xiao Yunhai was very concerned.
Paramount's "God of Fist" had been released in Europe and America on the evening of June 4th. The box office was very good, and it earned 154 million US dollars. The score on Tomato was 8.12 out of 10, and the reviews were very good. This brought a lot of pressure to Xiao Yunhai.
Zhao Wanqing wanted to come along, but she was stopped by Xiao Yunhai. He didn't want his wife to be too tired.
When he arrived at the TV station, Xiao Yunhai went directly to the data monitoring room. The director, Robert, happened to be there.
When they saw their boss, everyone stood up and greeted him.
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said with a smile, "Continue with your work. Don't worry about me. Robert, how are the ratings of the gala? "
Robert smiled and said, "Very good. It's only been ten minutes, and the highest ratings in North America have already exceeded 5%. "
"What about Europe?"
"Boss, the time difference in Europe is six or seven hours earlier than here. It has already finished broadcasting. The highest rating is 6.48%, and the average rating hasn't been calculated yet. It's estimated to be around 3.5%. "
Yunqing TV Station had only been broadcasting in Europe for two days. It could be said that it had no foundation. It was already very good that it could achieve such a rating.
Xiao Yunhai nodded with satisfaction and said, "Robert, you did very well. Thank you for your hard work."
Robert smiled and said, "It's mainly because the show is good. Especially the performance of Hua Xia Kung Fu. It's really eye-opening. Boss, with such a good foundation, I believe that the box office of 'The Grandmaster' will be very good. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I hope so."
Two hours later, the gala ended. The highest rating was 10.58%. It was very successful.
At the same time, Hua Xia Kung Fu became popular in Europe and America again.
"Damn, that Taiji Fist that I've always looked down on has such power. It's really amazing."
"I feel that what they performed is the real Hua Xia Kung Fu. It's really unbelievable that they can send a 300-pound wooden dummy flying with one punch. Tomorrow night, I must go and watch 'The Grandmaster'. "
"That's right, I want to go too."
The performance of Hua Xia Kung Fu made Xiao Yunhai's' The Grandmaster 'very popular. The expectations jumped from 60% to more than 80%. It was a perfect counterattack.
This made Paramount's Franklin very angry.
Originally, they had the absolute advantage during the promotion, and the box office of 'Fist God' was also very good. However, they did not expect that with only one day left, the other party would use a gala to salvage the situation. It was simply ridiculous.
