Chapter 448 Pride and Prejudice
"Brother Chen's musical ability has already reached the top international level. Is there any doubt about this?"
"That Xiao Zan, he just wants to take advantage of Brother Chen's popularity! What's the most handsome man in Asia Pacific? Did he ask for our opinions?"
"If you ask me, Su Chen is already the number one in Asia-Pacific music! Just look at the number of downloads of his songs and his influence, and you will know!"
"I heard that Su Chen's English song "Take Me to Your Heart" will be on the OMG Billboard chart. By then, it will give us a more intuitive picture of Su Chen's ranking in the world."
"If we only talk about music itself, Chen Ge is definitely a genius. But the arrogance and prejudice of Ou Mei people may cause Chen Ge to fail."
“…”
At this time, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun were closely following the developments of all parties.
The Zhong brothers were not at all surprised by Xiao Zan's defeat.
If Xiao Zan alone could pose a threat to Su Chen, then wouldn't Su Chen's strength all along be fake? This is impossible.
Therefore, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun focused more on the Ou Mei bulletin board at this time.
Yes, when Su Chen gave them the singing repertoire list, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun made this suggestion.
Of course Su Chen didn't object.
Because Su Chen also felt that it was time for him to test the Ou Mei market.
After all, Su Chen’s goal is not just this small piece of land in the country.
Entering Oumei is a necessary operation sooner or later.
It's a good time to test the waters now.
But of course, the song will be released at the early morning of the first day of next month.
After all, the situations at home and abroad are different. This is Su Chen's first time entering Oumei, so he dare not be as arrogant as he is in China. To put it bluntly, Su Chen doesn't care about the domestic results.
However, once it reaches the international stage, Su Chen's song performance will affect the reputation of the entire China.
We have to be cautious.
What made Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun happy was.
Oumei Network also pays a lot of attention to Su Chen's concert.
"Su Chen is holding a concert tour, and his songs will be on the Billboard!"
This entry has made it into the top ten of all the hot search lists in Oumei.
When I clicked on the entry, I saw that netizens in Oumei were also discussing this incident.
"Is Su Chen holding a concert? It's a pity we can't see it here!"
"I know Su Chen, he seems to be very powerful in Asia Pacific!"
"Su Chen's TV series and music have a huge influence in Asia-Pacific."
"Brother Chen's songs are very stylish! However, I haven't seen his movies or TV shows!"
“…”
Oumei netizens also generally welcomed the fact that Su Chen’s song will soon be on the Billboard.
"Welcome, Brother Chen! I love your music!"
"It's not that I'm discriminating, but I really can't appreciate Eastern music. But Brother Chen's music is an exception!"
"Chen Ge's rock music is amazing. I like "Chasing Dreams with a Childlike Heart" very much. It is said that "Take Me to Your Heart" is also a rock song, and it is in pure English. I must collect it when I get it!"
"When will Brother Chen come to our place to hold a concert? I'm so looking forward to it!"
"Why do Chinese singers always like to make such meaningless struggles?"
“…”
At the same time, people in the domestic entertainment industry generally reacted coldly to Xingyi and Su Chen's action.
However, this is not the first time that Chinese musicians have done such a thing.
On the contrary, many of the top young stars now often announce their new songs and enter the OMG Billboard at the same time.
But the result was that it couldn’t even make it into the top 100 of the list, and didn’t make any splash at all!
So at this time, people in the domestic entertainment industry all felt that this was just a routine operation by Xing Yi and Su Chen to attract attention.
Whoever takes it seriously will lose.
Even though the outside world has been in turmoil.
But for Su Chen, the following time was relatively simple.
After resting and rehearsing, three days later, Su Chen held his second concert in Shanghai.
Su Chen also adopted the model of mixing new and old songs.
Not surprisingly, it also caused a huge sensation.
Three days later, Su Chen held his third concert in Hangzhou.
It also achieved great success.
After the third concert, it was already the last day of April.
At this time, the first month's total box office data of Su Chen's movie "China Partners" became the focus of everyone's attention.
Yes, the box office of Su Chen's movie has already broken all domestic box office records.
Now people from all walks of life are very curious about what the box office revenue of this movie will be one month after its release.
On the neck.
"How much was the first month box office of "China Partners"?"
This entry ranked first on the hot search list.
Click on the entry and you will immediately see various speculations made by netizens:
"I guess the total box office should be over 5 billion!"
"Just wait and see. A conservative estimate is at least 5.5 billion!"
"Nonsense! This is pure nonsense! The movie has been released for half a month, and the total box office has reached 4.5 billion! If it can't break 5 billion, it won't be Brother Chen's movie."
"Generally speaking, the golden period of movie box office is the first two weeks. In the next two weeks, the box office revenue will definitely decline. So, it is really hard to say what the final monthly box office will be!"
"I don't care what the exact number is, I just know that Brother Chen's movie has broken another big record!"
“…”
People from all walks of life are very eager to know the answer.
However, there is no way around it. The exact statistics will not be available until the morning of May 1st.
Therefore, this night was also a night of waiting for Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun.
Su Chen also wanted to know the total box office of this movie, but he was not in a hurry.
Anyway, the box office has reached this level, so a little more or a little less is not that important to him.
Nine o'clock the next morning.
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun couldn't wait to open the official website of the Film Association to check the final result.
When they clicked on the page, a string of eye-catching data made them excited.
The total box office of "China Partners" in the first month exceeded 6 billion!
A number that is enough to shock the world!
Yes, although the box office revenue in the second half of the month was relatively lower, but when added up, the total box office for the film's first month of release still reached a shocking number.
This is the highest box office record for a domestically produced film.
The previous highest box office record came from another movie by Su Chen, "Love Is Not Blind".
The box office of Su Chen's movie increased by 1 billion compared to the previous one!
This is definitely a good thing to be celebrated.
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun wanted to find Su Chen to celebrate.
But at this moment, Liu Rong called Zhong Jun personally.
Well, now we are all shareholders of Dadi Cinemas, and we can be considered friends.
Zhong Jun immediately answered Liu Rong's call.
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhong! The box office of "Chinese Partners" is a huge hit!"
Not surprisingly, Liu Rong came to express congratulations.
This movie and Su Chen's influence, as well as the revenue it brought to Dadi Cinemas, have already made Liu Rong very happy.
Zhong Jun laughed:
"Congratulations!"
At this point, everyone is already brothers on the same front, so why differentiate between them?
"The cinema chain's monthly financial report is out, right?"
What Zhong Jun wanted to know more at this moment was the revenue situation of Dadi Cinemas.
Liu Rong: “Very optimistic.”
“But I don’t know the specific data.”
"We won't know until the financial department reviews and compiles the data."
Zhong Jun was very satisfied: "Okay. After the data comes out, let's celebrate together."
"It's a deal!"
So, both parties ended the call happily.
Afterwards, Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun came to Su Chen's office at the same time.
"Xiaochen, congratulations!"
Zhong Lei was the first to congratulate Su Chen.
"The total box office of "Chinese Partners" has exceeded 6 billion! What a great event!"
Zhong Jun knew that Su Chen would never take the initiative to inquire about these things, and he probably didn't know the specific box office data of the movie now.
This is also true.
These days, Su Chen is either giving a concert or on his way to a concert.
I really don't have the energy to pay too much attention to the box office data of the movie.
Anyway, for Su Chen, as long as the movie makes a lot of money, it doesn’t matter whether it makes more or less.
However, when Su Chen heard Zhong Jun say such a number, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
This revenue is already 1 billion more than the revenue from the previous movie. Moreover, he is now a major shareholder of Dadi Cinemas, so he can get even more money.
Faced with such a situation, Su Chen felt happy immediately.
"very good."
Su Chen smiled with satisfaction.
Zhong Jun continued:
"Liu Rong just called and said that Dadi Cinema's revenue is also very optimistic!"
Hearing this news, the smile on Su Chen's face became even brighter.
You know, Su Chen now owns 70% of the shares of Dadi Cinemas!
If Dadi Cinemas has good revenue, then Su Chen's income will be directly increased by a large margin!
This is really great news.
"Very good."
Su Chen rubbed his palms excitedly.
In this way, it will be easier for him to complete the trillion system tasks.
To put it bluntly, as long as he can run the Dadi Cinema Chain well, plus the income from film, television, music, etc., Su Chen can live a happy life without any effort.
Seeing this situation, Zhong Lei took the opportunity to say:
"Xiaochen, should we celebrate?"
Su Chen doesn't often show this kind of emotion, from this we can see that Su Chen is really happy.
Su Chen nodded:
"Can."
It’s not excessive to celebrate such a big happy event.
Anyway, Su Chen just went there to experience the atmosphere, chat with them for a few minutes, drink two glasses of fat otaku happy water, and then left. It was not a big deal at all.
"good!"
"That's it!"
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun were overjoyed when they saw Su Chen agreed.
To be honest , although they have been working with Su Chen for a year, they don’t have much time to get together.
The Zhong brothers really want to get closer to Su Chen in this way.
This is also the reason why Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun wanted to drag Su Chen to celebrate whenever there was a happy event.
It’s a pity that Su Chen is unwilling to participate in most cases.
Now, after repeated efforts, they finally got this opportunity to connect with Su Chen.
But at this time, Zhong Jun raised another question:
"Xiao Chen, is there a release date for the movie 'China Partners'?"
The Zhong brothers have considered it and believe that the current box office performance of this movie is still strong. It is entirely possible that the movie can make a lot of money within a month of its release.
But in this matter, Su Chen will ultimately have to make the final decision.
Zhong Lei looked at Su Chen a little nervously at this time.
Judging from the experience of "Love Is Not Blind", Su Chen doesn't seem to like extending the release time.
Although the film can still continue to reap considerable box office.
Well, what's wrong with making lousy money? Lousy money is still money. No matter how amazing a movie is, after a month of release, the box office revenue will definitely not be as good as the first month. This is inevitable.
Haven’t you seen that many Hollywood blockbusters also adopt the strategy of extending their release dates?
As long as I can make money, I don’t care whether it looks ugly or not.
Su Chen pinched his chin and did not respond immediately.
To be honest, making money by cheating others is really not his style.
Among his work collection, there are many classic movies.
However, when I saw the sad eyes of the Zhong brothers, I realized that I didn’t plan to make a second movie in the near future.
After thinking about it, Su Chen finally nodded:
"Okay."
Although the box office performance of this movie is not as good as it was at the beginning, but compared with other movies, the current box office revenue of "Chinese Partners" is still very impressive.
Strictly speaking, extending the release period under such circumstances is not considered a waste of money.
After getting such a reply from Su Chen, the smiles on Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun's faces were enough to pinch a fly to death.
"Very good!"
"We will immediately negotiate with all major cinema chains."
"If the film is extended for another month, it is estimated that it can generate more than 10 billion yuan in box office revenue."
"This is already a very impressive number for a domestic film."
Su Chen nodded: "Yeah."
Of course, Xingyi is the one who handles these miscellaneous matters. Otherwise, how can he be a hands-off boss?
So, this matter was finalized.
at the same time.
Fans of various stars, especially fans of Lu Han and Shu Qi, are also paying close attention to the monthly box office statistics.
Although they knew that the box office revenue of the movies starring their idols could not compare with Su Chen's movies.
But they all hope that the box office revenue of Su Chen's movie can be as low as possible.
Therefore, these fans rushed to the official website of the Film Association as soon as possible to check the box office data of "China Partners".
Five billion is the maximum, right?
These fans were silently chanting in their hearts.
With trepidation, they clicked on the special link.
The next second, a long set of data came into their eyes.
When they saw this set of data clearly, their hearts suddenly turned cold.
