According to statistics, more than 10 million people went to Hua Xia Martial Arts School to learn martial arts because of The Grandmaster. Among them, Tai Chi, Ba Ji, Ba Ji, Ba Ji, Ba Ji, Ba Ji, Ba Ji, and Xing Yi were the most popular.
On June 10th, Paramount's fantasy blockbuster, Titan, was released in major cinemas in Europe and the United States. The box office took in 424 million US dollars in one fell swoop, far surpassing The Grandmaster's opening night. The reviews were even better. The score on Rotten Tomatoes was 8.82, and it was called the best fantasy film ever.
Affected by this, The Grandmaster's box office in Europe and the United States dropped to 584 million US dollars. However, the Asian region was still very strong, taking in 485 million US dollars.
At the same time, Paramount's own movie, God of Fist, was also strongly affected by Titan. It only took in 275 million US dollars, which was completely out of the picture.
On June 11th, Titan's box office in Europe and the United States was 788 million US dollars. The Grandmaster's box office was 517 million US dollars, and the global box office was 1.167 billion US dollars. God of Fist was completely out of the competition, only taking in a pitiful 147 million US dollars.
Paramount Pictures made a prompt decision to take God of Fist offline and download it online at a high price. They also made a lot of money.
Just as The Grandmaster and Titan were in full swing in the international film industry, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing's music video for the World Cup theme song was released all over the world.
These two songs had already appeared on music websites all over the world, and the number of downloads exceeded the 200 million mark.
On the North American billboards, these two songs directly became the first and second place.
What made Xiao Yunhai speechless was that the song, Cup of Life, became the champion, and Zhao Wanqing's Football Moment came in second place.
As a result, Zhao Wanqing's invincible golden body was actually broken by her own husband. She wasn't able to be like Xiao Yunhai last year and become the billboard champion for thirteen consecutive weeks. This incident was jokingly called the biggest mistake in music history by fans.
The two songs from the World Cup were made into a music video, which was loved by hundreds of millions of fans. In just one day, it broke all sales records and sold 63 million copies. This was because they were not well prepared.
There were only ten days left before the start of the World Cup. The couple, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing, became the most dazzling existence during this period and once again gained countless fans.
Even "The Grandmasters" had a second spring. On June 12th, it earned US $1.352 billion at the global box office. It was only 200 million less than "Titan" in Europe and the United States, earning US $458 million.
On the 13th and 14th of June, they also broke through the one billion mark. It was only on the 15th that they dropped to 487 million USD.
From its premiere on June 6th to June 15th, the global box office of "Grandmasters" reached US $10.4 billion, becoming the sixth Marvel Comics movie to surpass 10 billion yuan.
Xiao Yunhai was once again on Hua Xia News Simulcast. Perhaps it was because "The Grandmasters" was a film to promote Hua Xia's kungfu, so this time, it took a full five minutes to broadcast.
If it had been any other director, the entire entertainment industry would have been in an uproar. However, when it came to Xiao Yunhai, whether it was industry insiders or fans outside the industry, they were all very calm and did not cause much of a stir.
In addition to the conscientious entertainment news reporting the news, only Xiao Yunhai's fans congratulated him on his homepage.
The reason was that everyone had long been used to his achievements. He had been on the news three or four times, so there was really nothing to be excited about.
Because of this, Xiao Yunhai was very proud of himself. He felt that it was lonely at the top.
However, Paramount Pictures could not accept it.
They had used two blockbusters to attack "The Grandmasters" one after another, but in the end, they still let the other party win more than US $10 billion. Their enemy was not hurt, but they had caused a lot of trouble and suffered a lot of losses. It was simply too depressing.
Fortunately, both of their movies were profitable. Otherwise, Franklin would have cried to death.
Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, it was already June 20th. "The Grandmasters" was officially released. The final box office was US $11.248 billion, ranking fifth on the world's movie rankings.
As a result, the top six movies in the world's box office rankings were dominated by Marvel Comics.
Seeing that there were less than five days left before the World Cup, Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing were ready to leave for London. However, they did not expect to be delayed by an invitation.
It was an invitation from Steyr Networks to Xiao Yunhai. They invited him to attend a party held by their company in Beijing on the afternoon of June 21st to celebrate the establishment of Steyr Music Network, Business Network, and Video Network. The venue was a super five-star hotel – Sanyuan Hotel.
Previously, David Steyr had sent him an invitation to celebrate the box office sales of "Fist God". Because he had returned to China, Xiao Yunhai did not attend. He did not expect that in less than two weeks, David Steyr would still send him an invitation. It was nothing more than wanting to disgust him. They probably did not even think that Xiao Yunhai would go.
Would Xiao Yunhai go? Of course he would.
After receiving the invitation, Xiao Yunhai didn't even think before deciding that he must go.
"Honey, are you going tomorrow night?" Xiao Yunhai waved the invitation in his hand and asked.
Zhao Wanqing shook her head and said, "I'm not going. Hubby, this is obviously a Hongmen Banquet. Are you really going? "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "Of course I'm going since they invited me with such great hospitality. If I don't go, others will think that I'm afraid of them. As the saying goes, you can break your head and bleed, but you can't lose your face. "
Zhao Wanqing rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Can you be more serious? Forget it, I'll go with you in case there are any problems. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "There's no need for that. What can those people from Steyr Networks do to me? They can't even do it in America, let alone in Beijing. This is our territory. "
Zhao Wanqing patted her forehead and said, "Hubby, do you think I'm worried about you? I'm afraid that you'll mess up the party. It won't be nice if word gets out. "
Xiao Yunhai said indifferently, "Don't worry, I won't cause any trouble."
"Really?"
"More real than a pearl. Of course, the premise is that they don't mess with me. "
"Okay then. When are we going to London? The International Football Association has urged us to rehearse. "
"Tomorrow night. After I attend the party, we'll leave immediately. How about it?"
"Okay."
On the afternoon of the second day, Xiao Yunhai wore a T-shirt and a pair of casual pants as he prepared to go to Gastle Network Company's cocktail party.
Zhao Wanqing quickly stopped him and pointed at his clothes. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Hubby, you're too informal. Everyone else is in suits and leather shoes. Don't you think it's a problem for you to dress like this? "
"What's the problem?" Xiao Yunhai said indifferently, "I'm already giving them face by attending David Steyr's bullshit party. It's good enough that I don't wear underwear on such a hot day. There's no way I'll change into a suit or evening gown. Don't worry about me, honey. Hurry up and pack your things. Once you're full, wait for me to go to the airport. "
Zhao Wanqing said helplessly, "Okay, suit yourself."
