Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 849: How Can We Stay Calm?
Sheng Tang finished watching and quietly gave Ke Fei a call.
"The midnight show has surpassed ten million, first day might hit eighty million, the total box office estimate should be between 800 million and 1 billion," Sheng Tang said.
Ke Fei was in a good mood.
He lowered his voice, but couldn’t hide his joy: "I checked the reviews, audiences at the midnight show gave extremely high praise, which is in stark contrast to the film critics.
Did you see the average score? The app’s score is 9.8, and other ratings are above 9."
Sheng Tang said she hadn’t seen it yet.
Ke Fei laughed: "Your box office estimate shouldn’t be far off. Tangtang, you’re about to have another blockbuster. A movie over 1 billion is a hit, regardless of making it into the top ten box office of the year."
Sheng Tang also laughed.
While they were on the phone, Sheng Tang’s door was abruptly knocked.
Liu Taofang’s excited voice came from the door: "Mr. Sheng, Mr. Sheng, are you asleep?"
Sheng Tang: "..."
From his excitement, he must have seen the midnight show box office.
Weren’t we agreed not to check?
Why are these adults acting like impatient children?
When "Workplace" was released before, Sheng Tang could actually hold back from looking.
Sheng Tang chuckled, hung up on Ke Fei, guessing Ke Fei must have heard the knocking next door.
As she opened the door, Ke Fei was also standing at the doorway, Liu Taofang was inviting him, "Old Ke, have you seen the box office stats?"
Ke Fei smiled: "I’ve already checked."
Mrs. Liu, with her hair wrapped in a towel, was also coming upstairs: "I told you, Old Liu couldn’t keep calm, woke you all up."
"How can anyone stay calm?" Liu Taofang’s chubby face was full of rosy excitement, his eyes shined, "Midnight show hit over ten million, my goodness! First day box office can certainly go over eighty million, maybe even break a hundred million!"
His heart held an estimate of two hundred million for the movie.
If the box office surpasses two hundred million, he will have saved his job and dignity.
Now it seems, it surely won’t stop at two hundred million, how could he not be thrilled?
Sheng Tang also chuckled: "We’ve all seen it, first day’s box office can definitely be anticipated. Brother Liu, besides the midnight show’s box office, the reception is also good."
"Exactly, I’ve seen the audience’s feedback. Those critics, they take money and talk nonsense, scared me to death, much less insightful than the audience! The audience is straightforward, just says it’s awesome!" Liu Taofang couldn’t hide his bold and carefree manner.
Mrs. Liu saw her husband losing control and dragged him away.
She forcibly confiscated Liu Taofang’s phone and made him go to sleep for a while.
"You agreed not to check box office today, why else would you call Mr. Sheng and her agent over?" Mrs. Liu reprimanded him.
Liu Taofang had no choice.
He couldn’t fall asleep, his mind swirling with thoughts.
Sheng Tang and Ke Fei were indeed tired, moreover with the previous 2 billion box office of "Workplace," Sheng Tang and Ke Fei were limitedly excited about the current situation.
Both of them wanted to catch up on some sleep.
By noon, Sheng Tang woke up and knocked on Ke Fei’s door.
The smell of food wafted up from the downstairs dining room.
After freshening up, Sheng Tang went downstairs, where Mrs. Liu and Liu Taofang were already sitting in the living room.
They were having a conversation.
Liu Taofang attempted to look at his phone again, but Mrs. Liu stopped him, leaving Liu Taofang visibly anxious.
After lunch, the group set up a table for cards.
This time, Liu Taofang was still absent-minded, losing quite a bit.
At dinner, he strongly requested to use a phone, but was again refused by Mrs. Liu.
Sheng Tang and Ke Fei’s phones were also turned off; the group had agreed that they must hold back until midnight.
