Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 234 The box office is far from 3.5 billion.

"Uh, it broke the record."

sometimes.

Record this stuff.

Others dream of breaking it, but they cannot.

But for some people, they didn't pay much attention to it, and it broke easily.

"Well, Director Chen, shouldn't you tell me how to make a box office hit?"

Zhao Liying smiled and asked the same question that the classmate had asked before.

Chen Cheng spread his hands and said again: "Actually, the box office..."

"That's hard to say."

A group of classmates spoke up for Chen Cheng.

"Look, you all are going to answer the questions."

"Hahaha, hahaha..."

……

The record-breaking of "The Founding of the Republic of Daye" was expected by many people.

but.

After breaking the record, whether "The Founding of the Republic" can break 4 million is a very big unknown.

"Congratulations to Founding of the Republic for breaking the record of Lost on Journey. Let's predict what the total box office of Founding of the Republic will be after it's released."

"I think it's around 3.7 million. There's not much potential at the box office right now, so I don't think it'll break 4 million."

"I also think it will be around 3.7 million. Today's box office is only 300 million. There is still a week left, and the maximum it can reach is 3.7 million."

"Oh, that's a pity."

This is also the prediction of most people.

But sometimes.

He couldn't predict the box office.

I don’t know who started it, but Chen Cheng’s joke spread.

of course.

Let it spread.

As a well-known domestic director, it is normal for him to make some jokes from time to time.

but.

After this incident, "The Founding of a Republic in Daye", which originally did not have much potential, suddenly exploded again.

"Hey, what's going on? How come the box office of Founding of the Republic of Daye has reached 500 million today?"

"That's impossible. It will only get lower and lower from behind."

"I don't know, let's see."

"Okay. It's already reached 600 million at the box office."

This sudden surge in box office revenue is usually unexpected.

But soon.

Someone figured out the truth.

original.

The reason for all this is because of what Chen Cheng said, that he couldn't predict the box office results for sure.

Or.

It's not this sentence either.

Instead, a group of netizens, after this meme came out, followed up with another one:

【Sir, the Yangtze River is a natural barrier, as solid as a rock, and indestructible. 】

This is a line from "The Founding of Daye".

result.

After this line was finished.

Soon news spread that the liberation troops had conquered the Yangtze River.

At the time, one fan regarded this as a joke.

but now.

He became a meme.

As for why it became this meme.

One is that this joke is really funny.

Another one is.

The character who said this line was Chen Cheng.

In other words, it is also the character Chen Cheng played by Chen Cheng.

Are you a little confused?

But when you find out that Chen Cheng actually made a guest appearance as the character Chen Cheng in the play.

Then you know why this meme is so popular.

"Shit, I just realized now that this guy is actually Chen Cheng."

"The big boss of the Civil Engineering Department is also called Chen Cheng."

"You should say that Chen Cheng has the same name as the big boss in the civil engineering department."

"Hahaha, Chen Cheng plays Chen Cheng... interesting, interesting."

Many people didn't expect this.

It’s because of a joke like this.

"The Founding of the Republic" was originally expected to take in around 3.7 million yuan, but it unexpectedly broke the box office record of 3.9 million yuan.

Only 4 million away from 1000 million.

There is only one day left before "The Founding of a Republic" is released.

……

Of course.

The record set by "The Founding of Daye" is not just about "The Founding of Daye".

At the same time that "The Founding of Daye" set a record.

There was also a film in China that performed well, with box office revenue exceeding 100 million yuan.

This film is called "Nanjing, Nanjing".

The director is Lu Chuan.

This is also the sixth person in China to have a box office revenue of over 6 million yuan, after Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, Chen Cheng, and Ning Xiao.

and.

Nanjing Nanjing was only in theaters for two weeks.

There are still two weeks to go.

Some professionals predict that the final box office of "Nanjing Nanjing" will be between 1.6 million and 1.7 million yuan.

This can be said to be another big happy event in the circle.

to this end.

As the producer, Huayi held a grand celebration banquet.

And invite big names in the circle.

Chen Cheng.

This is also the case with this invitation.

and.

It was Wang Zhonglei who called to invite Chen Cheng.

"Boss Wang, I won't go."

If it were any other director.

For example, Chen Cheng actually went there to bluff.

But Chen Cheng really doesn't like Lu Chuanjun.

Although Chen Cheng refused, Wang Zhonglei did not hang up the phone and said, "Director Chen, we are all family now, why are you still being so polite? Look, you are all sixth-generation directors, and you are the leader of the sixth-generation directors. Lu Chuan is also one of the representatives of the sixth-generation directors. It would be great if we all showed up together. It would also be a topic for the media, don't you think?"

"Forget it, I don't like this kind of excitement."

"Just sit down, just say hello and leave. Okay, Director Chen, please give me some face. Although, my face is not worth much. But after all, we have struggled together for a while."

"We fought together. When did we fight together?"

"The Tangshan Earthquake."

"Uh... well."

"Great, Director Chen, I knew you were open-minded. See you later."

"Ah, this..."

Watching Wang Zhonglei hang up the phone, Chen Cheng was stunned.

When did I agree?

Could it be that this guy heard the words just now wrong?

Mr. Wang felt a little headache, so Chen Cheng pressed his temples.

"Forget it, this guy isn't that annoying, so I'll just go for it."

It is still Huayi’s headquarters.

This is not the first time Chen Cheng has come here.

This is why Huayi often arranges various activities at their Huayi headquarters.

The main reason is that Huayi’s headquarters is in an excellent location.

Besides.

Huayi Headquarters is not just Huayi Headquarters, it also has a super 5-star Huayi Hotel as a reception center.

With such good conditions, it’s natural to go to our own venue.

Hit from a distance.

Chen Cheng saw a group of guests entering the hotel.

Chen Cheng didn't notify anyone and went in alone.

Ignore the others.

Seeing the many fruit and melon bowls placed in the hall, Chen Cheng started to eat as much as he wanted.

"Chen Cheng, you are here." Han Sanping walked over at this time.

Seeing Han Sanping, Chen Cheng was a little surprised: "Director Han, even a big shot like you is here, are you giving me face?"

"We have business dealings with China Film Group and Huayi, so we have to give them some respect. Besides, I am very happy that Lu Chuan is the sixth director in China to have a box office of over 100 million yuan. So, I came."

"This too."

nodded.

Just because Chen Cheng doesn’t like Lu Chuan, he can’t make everyone hate him.

For Han Sanping, Lu Chuan, like him, has also made a significant contribution to the domestic film box office.

It’s just that Huayi picked the wrong day.

Or.

Huayi shouldn’t have invited Chen Cheng.

Although the protagonist this time is Lu Chuan.

But Chen Cheng, wherever he goes, he exudes charming brilliance.

Even though Chen Cheng is already very low-key.

But all the guests who came to the hotel would move towards Chen Cheng from time to time.

Some people who knew Chen Cheng chatted with him excitedly and even talked about future cooperation.

Some people who didn't know Chen Cheng also greeted him and handed him their business cards.

There are others who want to discuss business with Chen Cheng directly.

Although such celebratory banquets are often also social banquets.

However, Chen Cheng's dominance still made Lu Chuan turn his eyes to Chen Cheng from time to time.

"Xiao Lu, are you a little envious?"

Holding the wine glass in his right hand, Wang Zhongyu clinked glasses with Lu Chuan and said.

Lu Chuan nodded: "Some."

Wang Zhongchu laughed: "Haha, not only you are envious, everyone is envious. A genius boy."

"Yes, a genius boy."

"Haha, what are you sighing about? In my eyes, you are actually a genius boy."

"Mr. Wang?"

"Hahaha, do a good job. This time it was good, and we fought for Huayi. But don't be too discouraged, there is still a long way to go. It's still uncertain who will have the last laugh in the future."

Wang Zhongtui has a very high vision.

Just a few words made Lu Chuan admire him immensely.

……

10 pm.

Han Sanping deliberately took Chen Cheng's car back.

Chen Cheng jokingly said, "Director Han, don't take your A6, take my shabby Volkswagen."

"You can't keep a low profile anymore. Did you know that many people have been looking for you today, asking where you went? You wonder why they couldn't find you? It turns out that the security guards at the gate didn't recognize you and thought you didn't come."

"Hahaha, it's normal that they don't recognize me. I don't appear on camera very often. Even if it's Director Zhang, not everyone will know me."

"Although Yimou doesn't appear on camera very often, he's better than you. You're so low-key that I wonder if you're just in the entertainment industry."

"That's fine. I'll play the leading actor later and shock everyone."

“I’m really looking forward to it.”

Chen Cheng was driving while chatting with Han Sanping.

Han Sanping took out his cell phone and refreshed it from time to time.

"Director Han, what are you looking at?"

"Just look at the box office."

"What box office?"

"Of course it's our Founding of the Republic of Daye. Do you think I'm watching Nanjing Nanjing?"

"Didn't you say Lu Chuan is also a talent?"

"You little brat, no matter how talented Lu Chuan is, he is not as important as our film. Tell me, can our "Founding of the Republic of Daye" break 4?"

"That's impossible. It's the last day. How can the box office be 1000 million?"

“But now there are 800 million.”

"what."

Chen Cheng was a little confused: "Director Han, when I checked this morning, it was only over 100 million. Did you buy it?"

"What am I brushing? Is it necessary?"

"Where did the box office of over 1000 million come from?"

"I don't know."

Han Sanping was a little proud, and then said: "Then let me read you some comments from netizens."

Han Sanping seemed very excited today.

Take a deep breath.

Han Sanping read:
"It's the last day of the screening. Whether The Founding of a Republic can break 4 is up to us."

"Brothers, let's go for it so that Founding of the Republic of Daye can break 4."

"The Yangtze River defense line is as solid as a rock and indestructible... Just for this sentence, I have to buy another vote to support Chen Cheng."

"Chen Cheng plays Chen Cheng, this scene is simply a stroke of genius. I really want to see the box office of "Founding of a Republic" break 4."

"Brothers, to be honest, I don't have time to go to the cinema for now. However, I also hope that "The Founding of a Republic" can break 4."

Box office numbers are sometimes a curse.

He has magical powers.

Just like breaking 1 million at the box office.

up until now.

Countless people are still working hard to break the 1 million box office.

After 1 million.

Naturally, I set my sights on 2 million.

After 2 million, it’s 3 million.

The 3 million mark was broken before.

Then.

Now it is 4 million.

Although 4 million and 3 million are just numbers.

Or.

The current 3.9 million is actually about the same as 4 million.

But if it can reach 4, the meaning will be different.

"Oh my god, it makes me want to go to the cinema to support them."

Chen Cheng also replied.

"How about we go?"

"Walk……"

"Just leave."

Although Chen Cheng is not particularly concerned about the box office.

But at such a critical moment, Chen Cheng was also a little excited.

He didn't go home, but drove to the nearest movie theater.

On the way there.

Chen Cheng received a call from Wang Jianlin.

Wang Jianlin was also a little excited and said, "Chen Cheng, do you think your movie "The Founding of a Republic" can break 4 million tonight?"

"Boss Wang, just tell me directly."

"There's no point in telling you."

Wang Jianlin laughed: "Okay, guess what you want."

hang up the phone.

Wang Jianlin was very happy.

Actually.

Even if "The Founding of Daye" cannot break 4 million today, Wang Jianlin will make it break 4 million.

As for how to break it.

It's not to boost the box office of "The Founding of the Republic of Daye".

For these theaters.

If you want to increase the box office of a certain movie.

It's so simple.

Just show it for a few more days.

Many popular movies will have a long release time of 40 days.

but.

Wang Jianlin knows now.

He doesn't need to do it this way.

because.

tonight.

"The Founding of the Republic of Daye" can break 4 million.

"All right."

"Director Han, let's not go in."

I hurried to the cinema.

It was already 23pm in the evening.

Chen Cheng checked the box office on his phone.

"Founding of Daye", on which a number is displayed: 400000000.

The domestic box office record jumped from 3 to 4.
