On the day of the Spring Festival.
The movie "Wa-wah Robot: A Brave and Intelligent Rescue" was officially released.
It was in time for the golden period of the box office.
The major cinema chains were very optimistic about the potential of this movie. Moreover, it was a family comedy, so the screening rate was quite good. The screening rate was generally above 30%.
Even so.
This screening rate was still too low.
This was because, in the cinemas of the major cinema chains, the occupancy rate of "Wa-wah Robot" was generally above 80% to 90%.
The occupancy rate was 100%, and overcrowded scenes could be found everywhere.
It even broke the highest attendance records of many cinema chains. For example, Wanda Cinema, which had the largest share of the cinema chain market, after some statistics, the premiere attendance rate of "Wa-wah Robot" was more than 50% higher than the second place.
It was terrifyingly high!
It was the same for most other cinema chains.
Very soon.
The screening period of three waves — morning screening, evening screening, and afternoon screening — passed.
The screening rate, occupancy rate, real-time box office, and other data were constantly changing, refreshing, and tabulating.
Just after midnight.
In Hanghu City, in a studio called "Tao Tao Movies," deafening cheers rang out!
"We've broken the record, we've broken the record!"
"We've broken the record for the highest box office in a single day during the New Year period. We've broken the record for the highest national box office in a single day!"
"788 million, we're almost 200 million ahead of the second place. President Tao, we'll definitely keep this record for a long time."
"Hmph! Originally, it was possible to break 800 million on the first day. There are too many people who stole our box office. We asked the netizens to help us collect evidence and found that at least tens of millions of box office were stolen. This loss must be recovered! "
Shi Xiaotao gritted her teeth. The box office earnings on the first day had exceeded 800 million. What an auspicious number, but that group of despicable thieves had forcefully chewed up a lot of it. She would definitely not let this matter rest. She would definitely pick up legal weapons to defend her own interests!
But when she sent a WeChat message to Chen Jin to report the good news, although she was still very angry, she could not help but feel a little proud. "788 million on the first day, the total box office will definitely break 5 billion. Yes, a new director, and his first work is at the peak right from the start. He enjoys the loneliness of being invincible. Can you understand this state of mind, President Chen?"
"I can understand. Congratulations."
Chen Jin, who was watching the Spring Festival Gala with his parents, replied with a smile.
His mother leaned over and asked, "How is it, son? Is the box office out yet? "
"It's out. 788 million. It broke the national box office record."
"That's great! The Spring Festival Gala made me sleepy, but now I'm full of energy! "He Li was very excited.
"Wow!"
Beside him, his father could not help but exclaim, "It's close to 800 million in one day. Wouldn't it be a few billion in a few days? Son, you said that you have a lot of shares, so you can get a lot of money, right? "
Chen Jin turned his head and asked curiously, "Hey, Dad, why are you concerned about money?" His dad was the model of a man who was happy to live in poverty. His understanding of money had always been that it was good to have enough to use.
Chen Gang forced a smile and said, "I've been getting paranoid recently. People always ask me, 'Your son is worth tens of billions, why does he still wear this kind of clothes?' or 'Your son is so rich, why does he still drive this kind of broken car?' So, I'm going to buy a few expensive clothes and a better car … I'm annoyed by their questions, and I don't know what price I should buy. "
He shook his head and sighed. "Only now do I know that being a billionaire father is not a small pressure."
Chen Jin asked, "How about I give you some lucky money so that you can buy a better car?"
"It's okay, your mom and I have savings, so we don't need your money. I also like the car. It's a domestic Hongqi H8, and it costs more than 500,000 yuan. The president of the company also drives this car … Now, no one will gossip, right?"
I'll go.
Chen Jin gave him a thumbs up. Driving the same model as the CEO of the company, Dad, you're awesome!
Hearing the New Year's money.
He Hi looked at Su Yun, who was sitting on the independent sofa at the edge. She shifted her butt over, picked up her phone, and said to her, "Little Su, it's New Year's Eve today. We have to give you some lucky money. I'll send you a red packet. Accept it."
Su Yun's eyes were fixed on the television screen, but they were not focused. She was in a daze.
She had yet to recover from the violent impact.
A voice in his heart said, "Box office earnings of 788 million, how much money can we get? Even if you gave me 1%, it would be equivalent to working for a lifetime, right?
"Little Su, Little Su."
He Hi called out to her twice before she came back to her senses and heard the director's words clearly. "I'm sending you a red packet. Hurry up and accept it."
"Director, I don't want it."
"If I tell you to accept it, just accept it. I don't dare to refuse a gift from an elder."
After making all sorts of excuses, Su Yun finally accepted the red packet. She opened it and saw that it was 8888 yuan. She immediately rejected it, but the director still let her accept it. He said to her meaningfully, "I don't give red packets to those ordinary girls."
Su Yun blushed again.
…
The next two days.
The box office of the movie "Wa-wah Robot: A Brave and Intelligent Rescue" continued to rise.
On the first day of the New Year, due to the increase in the screening schedule, the movie raked in 925 million in the box office, once again setting a new record for the national box office in a single day.
On the second day of the New Year, the movie's reputation grew. More people entered the cinema to watch the movie. There were even some people who watched the movie twice and thrice. The box office earnings on that day reached 946 million, once again setting a new national box office record!
In just three days, the movie's box office earnings had accumulated to a whopping 2.659 billion!
There was even hope for the movie to achieve a box office earnings of more than 5 billion during the New Year period, becoming the second movie in Z country to enter the 5 billion club!
Because of its strong momentum, some people believed that this movie had a high possibility of surpassing "Battle Dragons 2" and taking the first place in Z country's box office rankings.
This time, public opinion exploded. Netizens discussed it one after another. In the end, more than 70% of netizens expressed their agreement. "Wa-wah Robot: A Brave and Intelligent Rescue" really had a chance of taking the first place in the box office rankings.
Other than discussing the box office earnings.
Regarding the quality of this movie, some professional audiences and professional film critics expressed their opinions one after another on the movie rating website.
"7 points, a qualified industrial assembly line movie."
"I give 8 points. Z country's local director is able to produce such an assembly line work. This shows that the technical strength is comparable to Hollywood. We should give more tolerance and encouragement. This also shows that our movie industry is gradually maturing."
"A rookie director, a rookie's work, to produce such a standard. I'm afraid that she will become arrogant if I give her 10 points. Let's give her 9 points. I hope she can produce a better work."
However, there was also a well-known film critic who actually gave 0 points. He said in a sarcastic and unkind tone, "Heh! There's no nutrition, no artistry, but it's an outstanding commercial! "
Perhaps it was because they could not stand it anymore. Below this film review, there were a few replies that fiercely attacked him.
"The little hope of Z country's movies is destroyed in the hands of a self-righteous expert like you."
"No nutrition? My family and I laughed in the cinema. We were touched, warmed, and left behind a beautiful memory. This is nutrition, this is art! "
"Even if it's a commercial, it should at least be a commercial with 8 points!"
"In your eyes, this movie is 0 points. In my heart, your impression is negative. Trash film review, get out of the film review circle!"
"…"
Overall, the movie "Wa-wah Robot: A Brave and Intelligent Rescue" received far more affirmation and praise than criticism and slander.
There was a professional article titled "The Effect of Wa-wah Robot" that explained the reason why the movie's box office earnings were so impressive and why it could break the record and become the first in Z country's box office rankings. It was a clear explanation that made people suddenly see the light.
Chen Jin also read the article. He immediately smacked his head, as if he had been enlightened.
"In the beginning, I invested in Shi Xiao Tao to make this movie. I wanted to use this movie to advertise and drive the sales of Wa-wah 2.0.
But Wa-wah 2.0, which was released earlier, caused a huge response. It created a full-scale sensation and the topic's popularity reached its peak.
At this time, the movie "Wa-wah Robot" was released. It rode on that popularity and brought about a craze for the whole nation.
So … just like what this article said, the sales of Wa-wah 2.0 would not increase much because of the movie's release. But the box office earnings of the movie would see the hope of reaching the top because of the robot! "
