However, Liu Yifei's answer surprised him: "I think the netizens are right. After filming this movie, I have indeed learned a lot of historical knowledge and felt a lot of patriotism.

In the movie, when Yang Yang pointed the gun at me, he said, "Who knows if you are on the same page with us? We are Chinese, but you are not."

I felt very uncomfortable when I was filming this scene, and I felt even more uncomfortable when I was sitting in the cinema watching it just now.

Thanks to Director Wei for giving me the opportunity to shoot the historically significant film "Tokyo Raid".

After that, I will start to renounce my U.S. citizenship. I first became a U.S. citizen when I was still a child, and I grew up in the United States, so there are many things I don’t understand.

Now that I'm an adult, I realize that some things require choices and some things don't matter.

"I'm making a Chinese film, and I'll be a Chinese. This is what I want to tell everyone."

Kang Hui was really surprised this time.

"Director Wei, do you know about this?"

Wei Jun shook his head.

“I don’t know, but I have thought that if this drama has a sequel, the character of Ling Shen will be gradually weakened.

Now it seems that it is no longer necessary.”

Wei Jun had previously made a bet with Liu Yifei on the box office of 20 billion yuan, and if the box office exceeded 20 billion yuan, Liu Yifei would do as he said.

Wei Jun didn't expect that Liu Yifei made the decision before the box office reached 20 billion yuan.

However, after looking at Liu Yifei, Wei Jun seemed to understand a little.

The overall environment puts too much pressure on Liu Yifei.

Recently, many post-85 flowers, except Liu Shishi, have been targeting her, and they all use her nationality as an issue.

Coupled with the changes in external public opinion, Wei Jun's early change of the entertainment industry atmosphere made the double-dealers increasingly unpopular.

After "Tokyo Raid" is officially released, it is conceivable that the atmosphere will become even more tense.

In this kind of public opinion environment, as long as Liu Yifei's nationality issue is not resolved, she will always face this big trouble.

Also, it is estimated that after watching the finished product of "Tokyo Raid", Liu Yifei is confident about the box office of 20 billion.

Instead of waiting for the box office to reach a certain level before changing the nationality, it is better to break the news first.

It's a good thing for her image and for the show.

It can definitely be used for positive public relations.

This is true.

The crew will not give up hyping this kind of news.

Of course, Liu Yifei is one of the protagonists today, but she is definitely not the most eye-catching protagonist.

"Director Wei, what is your box office forecast for 'Tokyo Raid'?" Kang Hui asked.

The box office record for Chinese-language films currently belongs to Wei Jun.

Wei Jun was not modest this time, and said arrogantly: "I will more than double the Chinese-language film box office record that I set myself."

Everyone present was stunned at first.

Then everyone applauded again.

They all finished watching "The Great Tokyo Raid".

So they knew that Wei Jun's words were definitely not bragging. The movie "Tokyo Raid" definitely has the opportunity to more than double the current Chinese-language film box office record.

After the premiere, the promotion of "Tokyo Raid" officially started.

A deluge of news immediately gripped the audience. "Wei Jun: I want to more than double the box office record," "Liu Yifei: After filming this movie, I've decided to be Chinese again," "The Great Tokyo Raid: The Most Explicit Chinese-language Film Ever," "Tokyo Bombing, Shrine BBQ, Japan Sinks—Why Not Watch This Movie?", "Forgive Me for Being an Ordinary Man, I Don't Understand the Big Picture of Sino-Japanese Friendship, I Just Love Movies About the Abuse of the Japs," "My Grandfather Turns 1 Today, and He Let Me Book a Movie Ticket." Time quickly arrived on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

It was also the first day of the premiere of "Tokyo Raid".

On this day, all the members of the crew gathered together and started a roadshow starting from the capital.

During the break, Yang Yang, a newcomer in the film industry, looked a little pale.

"Director Wei, will our movie be okay at the box office?"

Wei Jun glanced at Yang Yang, whose face had turned pale with nervousness, and said jokingly, "I can't get the box office statistics right now, but it's not a big problem, you don't have to be so nervous.

This year's Spring Festival box office didn't even have a decent competitor, so it was hard for our film not to be a hit."

Yes, it’s hard not to explode.

In the original time and space, during the 2014 Spring Festival, the highest-grossing movie was actually the famous bad movie - Aaron Kwok's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons Strike Back".

Ranked second is another famous bad movie - the variety show movie "Where Are We Going, Dad?"

Just like that, Wei Jun loses with his head?

If they can't even beat these two bad movies, then Wei Jun and the main creators can all hang themselves.

As soon as Wei Jun finished speaking, his cell phone rang.

Wei Jun picked up his phone, looked at it, and then announced the good news to everyone: "I just got the internal data."

Everyone's eyes turned to Wei Jun.

Wei Jun said calmly, "As expected, the box office broke records in the first hour, and in half a day. In short, all records that can be broken have been broken by our movie."

And all the records broken were set by Wei Jun himself.

The leading actors looked at each other, and then cheered together.

"Long live Director Wei."

Wei Jun waved his hand and said, "Calm down. The good box office performance isn't actually our fault. Everyone knows that."

“We filmed that, too.”

Wei Jun is humble, but the actors cannot be humble.

They suffered a lot while making this movie.

Wei Jun was very demanding and pressed for time, so the filming process of this drama was definitely not a pleasant experience for them.

But the moment we get the box office data, all the hard work is worth it.

into the night.

Wei Jun was lying on the bed with Madam Wan, who had completely turned into a puddle of mud, and then he received a call from Da Tiantian.

"Mr. Wei, you're fucking the sky, do you know that? You're fucking the sky."

Mrs. Wan was lying on Wei Jun at this time, so she naturally heard what Da Tiantian said.

A very strange thought flashed through her mind: "When did I become the sky?"

But she also knew that what Da Tiantian was talking about at this time must be the box office of "Tokyo Raid", so she pricked up her ears and listened carefully.

Then Mrs. Wan's body became even softer.

"2 million, a single-day movie box office exceeded 2 million, a new record for the opening day box office and single-day box office of a Chinese-language film, 2 million in one day."

Da Tiantian was so shocked that she couldn't control herself.

After hearing this number, Mrs. Wan felt as if she had been revived to full health.

He pulled Wei Jun and wanted to fight again.

However, Wei Jun did not satisfy him, but told the other members of the crew the news in the group first.

In an instant, cheers rang out throughout the hotel.

The next morning, Wei Jun saw Hu Ge, Yang Yang, Liu Yifei and others. They all had dark circles under their eyes, but they were all in better spirits than him.

Hu Ge seems to be floating when he walks.

He is already very popular in the television industry, but he doesn't have any representative works in the film industry.

"Director Wei, our movie grossed over 2 million on the first day. If we can make 2 million every day, that would be 60 billion."

Liu Yifei was immediately amused by Hu Ge: "What are you thinking? 60 billion, I'd be content with 30 billion."

Wei Jun: "...Xixi, you have quite a big appetite."

The box office record for Chinese-language films in 2014 has not yet exceeded 15 billion.

Liu Yifei has already begun to aim for 30 billion.

Obviously, one by one, the land began to float.

But Wei Jun immediately changed the subject: "30 billion is indeed a possibility."

Hearing Wei Jun say this, everyone's eyes lit up.

Liu Shishi excitedly asked, "Director Wei, is there really hope of breaking 30 billion?"

"There's hope. Our competitors of the same period are terrible and our show has a good chance of becoming a phenomenal hit.

So everyone, please stay busy this month. We need to let everyone know about this movie. "The reason why "Wolf Warrior 2" was able to create a box office miracle is that many people who had not been to the movies for years were attracted to the theaters.

When it comes to patriotism and the excitement of the plot, "Tokyo Raid" definitely beats "Wolf Warrior 2".

What Chinese audiences want to see most is definitely the beating of the Japanese, not the fighting of mercenaries.

The sense of immersion is not on the same level.

Although it is only 2014 now, the productivity and market will definitely not reach the level of 50 billion box office, but Wei Jun really feels that there is hope for 30 billion.

Of course, if you want to achieve this effect, you definitely cannot do without publicity and promotion.

So for the next month, Wei Jun and his team were really busy.

But everyone was full of enthusiasm. The first day rating of "Tokyo Raid" was as high as 9.3 points.

Then some public intellectuals started to lead the trend, giving it one star, and soon the rating was raised to 7.9.

At this time, Xuanfa took action.

We caught a few typical cases and pushed them directly to the hot searches.

As a result, Douban was completely destroyed.

With the help of marketing, "Tokyo Raid" became completely popular.

"No depth? Secondary fantasy? What does it matter? I just love watching it."

"Five stars, no explanation needed, four stars for quality, ten stars for bombing Tokyo."

"I just hate the Japanese. Rationalists can go away."

"It's been decades since the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, and yet there are still puppet troops on Chinese soil. It's truly shameful."

"Rubbish Douban, rubbish fake devils."

"I've watched it three times, and it makes my blood boil every time."

"I know this movie isn't perfect, but it's my favorite movie of the past 30 years, bar none."

"It's so cool. Director Wei dares to shoot it, so I dare to watch it and watch it as many times as I can." The box office performance of "Tokyo Raid" completely shocked the industry.

The first day box office was 2 million.

The box office the next day was 1.8 million.

Box office on the 3rd day: 2.1 million.

When the third day's box office figures came out, everyone in the industry was stunned.

The producers of other movies during this Spring Festival have completely given up hope.

This is an invincible trend.

Impossible to contend with.

When the box office figures for the fourth day came out, the entire entertainment industry, including those at the top, realized two things.

1. The Chinese people are truly patriotic.

2. The Chinese people really hate Japan.

The box office on the fourth day reached 250 million yuan.

"Tokyo Raid" has only been in theaters for four days, and the box office has already reached 10 billion.
