Chapter 896 892. Opportunity to enter
Meng Qi: "Are we not going to get together this year?"
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "What? Brother Qi, where do you want to go?"
Meng Qi: "Are you sick? I'm Lao Wang!"
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "Are you sick? I saw that your name has a 7, I thought you were Brother Qi."
Suan Cai Wu Hua You: "Didn't you notice that Lao Wang and Brother Qi are still couples in their profile pictures."
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "...If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have noticed. This tilted head profile picture looks so stupid."
Meng Qi: "I'm talking to you about business. How should we plan this year?"
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "It's hard, x-on:Your Jay, what do you think? "
Meng Qi: "Forget it, I'm also recording "I Am a Singer". I'm not free this month, it's going to be broadcast next month, and there's more to do. Lao Xu, is "Lost in Thailand" good?"
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "I don't know, I haven't seen it yet. I asked Xu Zhi for a copy?"
Meng Qi: "Goodbye, it's going to be released the day after tomorrow, isn't it? Brother Qi and I will go to the cinema to watch it. Lao Lang, when will you come back?"
Suan Cai Wu Hua You: "The last few performances are around Christmas."
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "I thought about it, let's just go with the flow this year. Lun Zi has a concert over there, and I have to deal with the movie. When can we meet and discuss it?"
Sour Cabbage Wuhua You: "If Lost in Thailand is going to be released, you guys wait for me, let's go watch it together?"
Meng Qi: "Are you sick? A few grown men are going to watch a movie? Luohan Bureau?"
Sour Cabbage Wuhua You: "Yes, Luohan Bureau, I saw that Wanda has launched couple seats. I want to squeeze with you!"
Meng Qi: "I think you are dirty, get out of here."
Sour Cabbage Wuhua You: "Don't, I'm Wuhua You, I'm fat, and it tastes so good when I suck it."
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "I'm afraid that Lao Wang will suck your dentures out."
Meng Qi: "I'm vomiting..."
In a small group of several people, after the men praised each other for a while, Xu Xin switched the screen and began to look for news about Lost in Thailand.
Lost in Thailand will be released on December 12, which is the day after tomorrow.
He doesn't know much about this movie, and he hasn't even read the script.
When the project was first established, it was Xu Zhi and his team who handled it. The prefix of Lost on Journey obviously intends to make this project a series.
And if he searched online, he could see a lot of news about Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang and others participating in various activities.
Obviously, the two of them also put a lot of effort into promoting this movie.
As for what the movie is like, he didn't know.
Let's go and see.
After flipping through the news for a while, the WeChat group rang again.
Xu Xin switched back to take a look.
Your Jay brother: "[Picture], handsome?"
In the photo, Jay Chou's mermaid line and abdominal muscles coexist, and the tears flowing on them are very clear.
Xu Xin's mouth twitched...
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "So disgusting."
Pickled Cabbage Wuhua You: "So disgusting."
Meng Qi: "I almost blinded myself."
Your Jay brother: "Good figure, practice, practice, great!/grin"
Xu Xin didn't want to pay attention to him instantly.
But he understood why his friend was exercising during this period.
His ankylosing spondylitis will cause the spine to deform as he ages.
Not only that, it will also affect his voice.
Since this year, Lunzi has felt that every time he sings high notes, he feels… unable to use his strength. If he uses too much strength, his back will feel very tight and even a little sore.
The doctor suggested that he needs to build muscle, develop the muscles in his back, and let the muscles slow down the deformation of the spine.
Because if he continues like this, not only will his body become more and more hunched, but his voice will also change.
If Jay Chou can tolerate the former, when the conclusion of voice change comes out, he can no longer treat his disease with a casual attitude.
So he has been exercising, especially since the second half of the year.
Lunzi is quite optimistic. It was originally a "treatment", but now it has become his capital for showing off.
According to him, he also plans to show off his abdominal muscles at the concert.
It is common to post "beautiful photos" of fitness in the group every day.
Although Xu Xin looked jealous, he decided to warm up in the end.
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "Remember to bring your information. I have already contacted Kobe. He said he knows a German doctor who is very professional in the field of sports. Many NBA players seek treatment from him. Take your information first, and after your concert next year, go find him as soon as possible."
Your brother Jay: "I know KOBE too, okay?"
Soldier Xu Sanduo: "Oh. Then go find him, I don't care."
Your brother Jay: "...Just pretend I didn't say anything, I'm going to have tea."
Looking at this message, Xu Xin chuckled:
"You are capable of this."
...
December 12.
After the children went to school, he took some time to watch this "Lost in Thailand".
Overall, the viewing experience was quite pleasant.
Both he and the other audiences in the theater would burst into laughter from time to time.
This comedy is indeed great.
It's funny enough, especially the part where the two met a beautiful woman in the elevator and said she was a shemale.
Xu Xin almost choked.
It's very fun.
And the structure is also very clever...At the same time, he wondered when Sister Bingbing would make a cameo appearance?
The story is really closed.
Not bad.
After the film was over, although he didn't hear any comments from the audience this time, after the lights came on, he obscurely observed the expressions of the audience around him, and found that everyone's expression was a kind of bright feeling that was completely different from the previous "1942", and he felt more at ease.
It seems that Nifeng's investment this time was not a mistake.
He stood up and sent a congratulatory message to Xu Zhi, and walked out of the corridor of the screening room.
"Lost in Thailand" was also screened at 0 o'clock.
When he watched it, he rushed to the first show at 9 o'clock.
It was more than 11 o'clock in the afternoon, and he subconsciously observed the big screen of Hengdian Cinema to see the screening rate.
As a result, the name of "Lost in Thailand" was almost all red.
At least two-thirds of the length, and the rest were "1942", "Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart", "Cold War" and other movies.
The screening rate of the cinema is very realistic.
Whichever movie has a high attendance rate will naturally squeeze the scheduling space of other movies of the same period.
And according to this view...
The first day of "Lost in Thailand" should be very good.
And the fact proved that his judgment was right.
Early in the morning on the 13th, after he woke up, he habitually took his mobile phone to the bathroom to wash up.
While squatting on the toilet, he saw the message Xu Zhi sent to him in the early morning yesterday:
"Three golds! Thirty-six million!!!!!!!"
"The first day box office of "Lost in Thailand", 3600!!!!!!!"
"Wow ha ha ha!!!"
There was a sense of excitement between the lines.
In fact, if it was just 36 million, Xu Zhi would probably not be so excited.
But... when these 30 million began to be linked to his own achievements, the meaning became different.
Xu Xin didn't even need to guess, he knew that in the Xujiawan family group with four or five hundred unread messages on his mobile phone, there must be words of bragging from his childhood friends.
Tsk…
He replied with a clattering message:
“Congratulations.”
But he didn’t say he was particularly happy, but he felt at ease.
Based on the first day, I think the final box office should not be too bad.
It should be a foregone conclusion that it will surpass “1942”.
As for how high it will go in the end…let’s wait and see.
…
On December 13, the second day of the release of “Lost in Thailand”, the box office was 39 million.
And the reputation was quite high.
Xu Xin was very satisfied.
…
On December 14, the third day box office was 56 million.
Although the third day did mark the time when the movie box office exploded.
But when Xu Xin saw this result, his reaction was still a little confused.
Is it so high?
3 days box office of 130 million?
And just when he was a little confused, the data on the 15th and 16th made the entire film and television industry confused.
On the 15th, the box office of “Lost in Thailand” was 84.09 million.
It surpassed "Let the Bullets Fly" in one fell swoop and became the new highest single-day box office record for domestic films!
And this record was broken again on the 16th.
Box office on the 16th: 86.5 million.
Two days, revenue of 170 million.
? ? ? ?
Let alone Xu Xin, everyone was a little confused by the data of these two days.
No... buddy, it's only been 5 days, 5 days, and the box office has broken 300 million?
"1942" has only 240 million so far.
"Lost in Thailand" broke 300 million in 5 days?
What's going on?
But this is not over yet.
In 7 days, including Monday, the worst time for the box office, "Lost in Thailand" broke 400 million.
You know, "Lost in Thailand" is not a standout.
There are really many movies in this December New Year's Day.
"The Great Shanghai", "The Guillotines", and Cheng Long's "Chinese Zodiac"...
By the time of Christmas, in 13 days, the box office of "Lost in Thailand" has reached 721 million.
It took 13 days to break the 720 million box office record set by Painted Skin 2 in July this year.
It successfully won the first place in the domestic film box office and took the top spot.
Even so, Lost in Thailand is not 3D.
Painted Skin 2 is 3D, and the ticket price itself is high. What's more, it was released at the critical juncture of the domestic film protection month, and almost dominated the entire protection month.
When this result was placed in front of everyone...
No one calmed down.
Even Xu Xin was included, because every time he saw that the box office of Lost in Thailand created some mythical data in the past two days, he would always see the media saying that the time for the "full rise of Chinese-language films" has come.
So much so that... he himself had some illusions.
Could it be... really coming?
It's as if everyone's consumption capacity has suddenly increased, and obviously... nothing big has happened, but it seems that Chinese-language films have quietly entered thousands of households.
Just like that?
So sudden?
Although people related to Cloud Atlas have been celebrating these days.
Apart from other things, "Lost in Thailand" is a movie that Yuntu invested 30 million yuan in. Xu Zheng did not sign a gambling agreement, but used the gambling agreement to exchange Yuntu for investment in his own studio. At present, "Lost in Thailand" has earned Yuntu at least 250 million yuan in profits.
This money... is just like the wind blowing in.
But Xu Xin still couldn't figure it out.
Why was the box office so high?
It wasn't that he doubted Xu Zheng, but... he always felt that this kind of high box office that even Hollywood movies crushed was a bit inexplicable.
It was like a conservative person who couldn't adapt to the changes of the times.
The world changed too fast, so fast... that he couldn't accept it.
But the die was cast.
Okay.
...
Xu Xin spent Christmas with Lao Lang.
It was miserable.
His wife was overseas, Lao Wang was with Qi Ge, and Lun Zi went on vacation with Kun Ling.
He and Lao Lang, who had just returned to China, set up a copper pot in the yard and ate the Northeast's special pickled cabbage hot pot.
The principle was the same as Yanjing hot pot, but pickled cabbage was put in the bottom of the pot.
It tasted pretty good.
The two old men spent a Christmas alone.
After Christmas, he flew directly to Italy.
Although Italy was also on holiday, the work of the "Perfect Stranger" crew still had to start.
Moreover, he brought a Christmas gift for Liu Yifei.
A USB copy of Lost in Thailand.
The other party had nothing to watch there, so she asked Xu Xin for it.
Apparently, she had also heard about it and wanted to see what magic this movie had.
She, Wu Qiqi, Xu Xin, and Su Meng watched it together in her room.
Xu Xin had certainly seen it, but some jokes didn't make any sense, but Liu Yifei and Wu Qiqi laughed so hard that they fell over.
And... although he was as surprised as everyone else when the box office of Lost in Thailand reached more than 300 million in the first week, he was also surprised. But after calming down, some thoughts always lingered in his mind.
He had been thinking about it for many days.
When Liu Yifei finished watching a movie, she rubbed her sore cheeks, turned her head and was about to comment on the movie to Xu Xin, but saw that the other party was staring at the screen, as if in a daze.
So he asked in confusion:
"What are you thinking about?"
"Hmm..."
Hearing this, Xu Xin came back to his senses and looked at her, and asked a question:
"Have you ever thought about one thing... What does the box office of "Lost in Thailand" mean to some... profit-seeking businessmen?"
"...Ah?"
Liu Yifei was stunned.
A hint of confusion appeared in her smart eyes:
"What do you mean?"
But Xu Xin did not answer.
He just shook his head slightly.
But in his heart, he had a feeling.
Next year's film and television industry...I'm afraid there will be many more new faces.
Could it be...this is the opportunity for the "second wave of coal bosses to enter the market" mentioned by Mr. Tian?
The opportunity opened by...Yuntu himself?
