Chapter 1001 New Year’s Eve
December 2021, 12 is the last period of the year, and the New Year’s Eve period will follow.

Fourteen movies are released on the same day, which is quite incompetent.

However, the first to break through was Xue Xiaolu's "Embracing You Through the Cold Winter", which had exceeded 1.5 million yuan in box office as of p.m. that day, a very gratifying result.

However, the corresponding result is that word of mouth cannot keep up with the growth of box office.

Some viewers felt that the movie did not meet their expectations.

At this time, at China Film Corporation, Fu Ruoqing quickly browsed through some information handed over by his secretary, his eyes focused and his expression slightly serious.

"It's exactly like what Li Mu said. The reputation is a bit problematic."

Fu Ruoqing sighed. Although the reviews from the audience were not particularly bad and barely gave it a passing rating, which was much better than those terrible movies, it was by no means excellent.

Under such circumstances, a box office of 1 billion would definitely be a bit difficult.

"By the way, how did things go?" Fu Ruoqing asked afterwards.

"Mr. Fu, Douban can delay the rating for a few days, but for the negative reviews on social media, we..."

“There’s no need to control the comments, just leave the rest as it is!”

Fu Ruoqing waved his hand.

The response from the film and television industry this year obviously did not meet expectations, but now we can only accept it silently.

Fortunately, the entire film and television industry was not without gains. At least in this difficult year, there were main theme blockbusters such as "Changjin Lake", which broke the domestic film history record.

At this point, all the major media outlets have already edited their articles, waiting for the total box office to be announced after "Changjin Lake" is taken off the shelves at 12 noon tonight.

"The 66 billion is a sure thing, but it's a pity that we still have a long way to go to reach 70 billion. Even if we postpone it again, we won't get there."

"It's good to have the thought of reaching 70 billion. If you go too high at once, it will be difficult to break the record later."

"How can we expect this record to be so high? Besides, maybe after one or two re-screenings in a few years, the cumulative box office may exceed 70 billion."

"."

The editors of the media were discussing this while waiting to get off work and welcome the new year.

After all, this year has been extremely difficult, and the epidemic is always with us and cannot be shaken off.

The winter nights in the imperial capital are already chilly and windy. The branches on both sides of the street have long lost their leaves, leaving only bare branches shivering in the cold wind. Occasionally, a few decorative lights are hung on the branches, emitting a gentle warm yellow light, as if lighting a small cluster of hope in the cold.

The neon lights on the roadside are flashing. Although the colors are cold, they make the whole street lively.

The glass curtain walls of the high-rise buildings on both sides reflect the lights, like stars in the night sky.

Li Mu was driving quickly towards home. The headlights cut through the night, casting a flowing light and shadow, and the sound of the wheels rolling over the road seemed to play a soft melody in the silence.

In the villa area, lights were on in the windows of every house, some were soft orange and some were cold white, but without exception they all dispelled the chill of the winter night.

And at this moment, there is a bright and warm light waiting for his return.

"Wait inside, or you'll catch a cold. Otherwise, put on more clothes."

Liu Yifei saw the little boy sitting at the door with a chair, leaning out of the door from time to time, and Liu Yifei couldn't help but remind him.

"Oh!"

The little bun pouted and said, "Why hasn't Dad come back yet? It's time for dinner!"

"There's something going on at the company today, so I'll be there soon."

Liu Yifei walked forward and couldn't help but rub the little bun's cute little face.

"Ah, that's disgusting!" the little bun protested, but at this moment Ala suddenly ran out the door excitedly.

"Ala, is daddy back?" The little boy's eyes lit up. After all, only family members would have this reaction, so he quickly followed.

Sure enough, the gate of the villa slowly opened and the car slowly drove in.

"Dad!" The one who ran towards Li Mu first was not the little bun, but the voice arrived first because the little bun could not run as fast as Ala.

Ala wagged its tail and jumped in front of Li Mu, followed by the little bun. "Why are you wearing so little? Come into the house quickly." Li Mu took a look and quickly carried the little bun back into the house.

At this time, the aroma of food mixed with the hot air hit my nose.

It’s the New Year’s Eve dinner tonight.

"Take off your coat." Seeing this, Liu Yifei walked forward and gently took off Li Mu's heavy coat.

"What are you eating tonight?"

"Dumplings!" Little Baozi's crisp voice rang out, "I want to eat lots and lots of them."

"Not afraid of getting fat!" Liu Yifei jokingly said.

"I'm not going!" The little bun said, but he couldn't help but look at his belly, then squeezed his belly with both hands, "Look, there's no fat at all."

"Hahaha"

Li Mu couldn't help laughing when he saw it.

A few minutes later, Li's mother came out with a steaming plate of dumplings.

After everyone finished eating, they all sat in front of the TV. The TV had been switched to the Capital TV, which was broadcasting the New Year's Eve Gala.

"Yanyan will be on Didu TV today." Liu Yifei said with a smile.

"She is currently filming 'Flowering Flowers'. How can she still have time to attend the party?"

Li Mu was a little curious, after all, Wong Kar-wai was famous for being picky.

"Director Wang said that she did a good job of researching the role, so he gave her a special leave."

"Oh? Then I have to watch it after it's released."

"We'll watch it together then."

"."

As the enthusiastic countdown sounded on TV, "Five, four, three, two, one!", the media's scheduled press releases began to be sent out one after another.

"The film ended at midnight on New Year's Eve, and The Battle at Lake Changjin set a record with a box office of 66 billion!"

"From National Day to New Year's Eve, The Battle at Lake Changjin has lit up the screen with a box office of 66 billion!"

“The epic ends: The Battle at Lake Changjin closes on New Year’s Eve, setting a new record for Chinese-language films!”

"The Battle at Lake Changjin ends, with a box office of 66 billion yuan paying tribute to every tearful moment!"

"."

Headlines like these also flooded entertainment websites and social media on New Year's Eve.

Although New Year's Eve movies are the main focus nowadays, once the news of "Changjin Lake" came out, all other movies had to give way to it.

"I'm very proud. I contributed nearly two hundred!"

"That's amazing. It actually reached 6.6 billion in the end. I thought 6.23 billion would be enough."

"It has to be Li Mu. I'm afraid even he himself would have a hard time breaking this record!"

"."

The cancellation of "Changjin Lake" also caused a lot of discussion.

Li Mu, on the other hand, had just sent New Year's greetings to Zhang Yi, Chen Kaige and others, when he looked back at his phone, all of them were push notifications related to "The Battle at Lake Changjin".

"It's offline."

Li Mu also felt emotional.

Because the end of a movie also means that the story of the movie has reached a stage end.
