  Chapter 61 Word of mouth explodes! 500 million a day and a half!

  Iwata Formation.

  Iwata Takeshi was fascinated by a phone alone. There were many messy papers on the table. It could be seen that he was writing before.

  It must be said that it was indeed fixed by Akina that day.

   In the evening, Takeshi Iwata has this look again.

   After scaring three taxis and five minivans away, and after walking about six or seven kilometers, he helped repair a car that broke down on the road, and then pulled him back.

   Akina, you wait for me!

  Iwata Takeshi is not in a hurry, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future.

   What is going on with the phone now?

  Christmas, Iwata Takeshi was of course alone.

   After all, so far, the vicious man has not yet had a partner.

  There are no Christmas gifts to send.

   That is, Takeshi Iwata had an affordable Christmas.

   But even so, doesn't he still have a gang of subordinates?

   Those men were sent out by him, they are…

   At this moment, the phone rang.

   "Boss."

   "How? Say."

   "Awesome! It's really awesome!"

"Oh."

   "Great success! My friends say it's very good! They also praised my performance."

   "Yes, Kagawa, you did a good job."

   was Kagawa's phone, and he hung up after a few chats.

   Takeshi Iwata had a faint smile on his face. Fortunately, there was no one else in this room, otherwise

   is not that scary.

   In other words, some things are quite inconvenient in this age.

   In the era of Takeshi Iwata, the Internet was already a thing that penetrated into all aspects of human life, and the views on a movie can be easily presented on the Internet.

  Midi has Rotten Tomatoes, we in China have Maoyan Dou, etc.

   Now is the RB of the 1980s. If you want to know the reputation of a movie, the means are much more primitive.

   Generally speaking, the most commonly used street survey is the survey.

  This method is not only used in movies, but also used in almost all consumer goods, and there are special institutions to do this work.

   Toho and Shochiku will also receive relevant reports.

   However, the actions of those investigative agencies are relatively slow.

  The last time "Ferocious" did not do this work, the film has already won awards internationally, and the audience will definitely be affected by the awards.

   Now, this "Infernal Affairs" is very important, and Takeshi Iwata wants to get first-hand word of mouth.

   There is someone on hand, so let's just let it go.

   The one who just called was Kagawa, and the target group for the investigation was his classmates.

   Don't look at Kagawa's long and stubborn, but the real graduate of Tohoku University is still the Department of Literature.

  Most of those who study literature are also very interested in movies. Moreover, they have a certain level, and they are Dongda University, so their views on "Infernal Affairs" should be of great reference value.

   Naturally, don’t force others to see it, we Yakuza are also reasonable in what we do.

   Now listening to Kagawa's description on the phone, he really had several classmates who went to see the movie, and the reviews were very good.

   Takeshi Iwata had a smile on his face, after all, everyone likes to hear good things.

   Then, the phone rang again.

   "Boss, everyone here at Tsukiji Market said they like it very much!"

"Really?"

   "Really! Everyone says it's amazing!"

   "You didn't use any weird tricks, did you?"

   "How come? It's definitely everyone's real voice!"

"very good."

  …

   "Boss, Kabukicho has a good response here!"

"Have you not…"

   "No, a friend of mine told me."

   "That friend of yours..."

   "Really my friend."

  …

   "Everyone in the small theater is very envious of me."

   "They went to see it too."

   "It all means that this movie is very, very good!"

"very good."

  …

   Calls came in one after another. Cat, Yu, Qing, Matsushigetoyo, Endo, and Kagawa all reported what they had seen and heard.

  Although that guy Ah Qing made a friend out of nothing, it was nothing.

   Word of mouth is a great success!

  Before the investigation report came out, Takeshi Iwata had a bottom line.

   There are bound to be people who have a bad opinion, but at least judging from the samples they collected, it should still be great.

   So, how about the box office?

  This year's Christmas, including Christmas Eve the day before, happens to be Saturday and Sunday.

   And the premiere of "Infernal Affairs" was scheduled on the afternoon of the day before Christmas, which is Saturday afternoon.

   In this way, "Infernal Affairs" has already completed its first week of release, although there are only less than two days in this week.

   To be precise, it can only be regarded as a day and a half, but this is also the 'first week'.

   How much can the box office have?

   Takeshi Iwata was waiting for the call, he knew that person would call.

   Sure enough, the phone finally rang.

   "Mosimoxi."

   "Iwata-san, hello."

   "Hello Shimaya-san."

   "The First Week of Box Office of "Infernal Affairs"..."

   Takeshi Iwata frowned.

  …

  After doing the 'investigation', Matsushige Feng's footsteps became very brisk.

  In the small theater period, I didn't get many opportunities, and this fierce face really made people stay away.

  It is different now. When he returned to the small theater, everyone looked at him.

   There is envy in envy, but he also says various words of praise.

   Even if he is as shy as Pine Chongfeng, he can't help but be a little proud.

   These are all thanks to Iwata-san!

Thank you!

  Mushroom sauce has made up his mind to follow Iwata-san.

   Now, he is back in the Iwata-gumi.

  Where can I go after the investigation is over?

   Again, there is one more important thing.

"I am back."

   As if taking this place as his home, Matsushigetoyo opened the door and saw that everyone had returned.

   Mao Yuqing, the three of them are very energetic.

  Endo Kenichi and Kagawa are also two potential actors.

   Well, including myself, Iwata-san is a capable soldier in the world.

The idea of ​​  Matsu Shigetoyo had the feeling of a period drama, but at this moment, he also walked quickly.

   Everyone gathered around Iwata-san's desk.

   "Boss! Has the box office come out yet?"

   "Yes, although the time is a little short, the first week has already passed."

   "Will it be because the time is too short, so... there is no reference value?"

   "Don't say such depressing words, hey!"

   "Impressiveness! Imposing manner! Anyway, based on my investigation results, there must be no problem!"

   Obviously, everyone is just like themselves, looking forward to the box office data of the first week of "Infernal Affairs"!

  Matsu Shigefeng has a taller stature, so it would be better if he walked over and stood a little outside for a while.

   And at this moment, he also observed that Iwata-san's face was serious, but there was no expression at all.

   For a vicious man like him, expressionless is enough momentum.

  I look forward to it, I look forward to it, I look forward to it!

  Matsu Shigetoyo's shy heart was already speeding up.

   Go listen to Iwata Takeshi suddenly coughed lightly.

   "Cough...you guys, just want to know?"

   These words made everyone radiate a little look of extreme anticipation.

  Iwata Takeshi finally gave the answer: "500 million!"

  500 million yen in the first week?

  Simple numbers, like sparks flying into the dry wood, instantly set the house on fire.

   "Siguoyi!"

   "Chaos Country One!"

   These guys are still the same, with one sentence, the country will go all over the world.

   It’s just that the expressions and actions are full of passion.

  Matsushigefeng heard it, and he almost didn't cry.

   Only two days, no!

   One and a half days to be exact!

   This 500 million is equivalent to double the last "Ferocious".

   Of course, after all, it is the Yakuza group. Although it is very cool to follow Siguoyi, I don’t quite understand what this 500 million means.

   "How powerful is this box office?" Ah Ching is a perfect explanation of what it means to ask if you don't understand.

   At this time, Yuan Ziwen walked in at some point, "Probably, for about two days, more than 100,000 people watched this film in the cinema every day."

   As soon as these words came out, it triggered a new round of climax.

  Si Guoyi kept coming out, making people happy and speechless.

   However, Sonoko Wen came over, saluted Iwata Takeshi, and said, "Boss, according to the habit of big RB companies, I'm afraid this will happen next..."

  What will happen next? Why does this weirdo seem so hard to handle?

   Everyone was puzzled, but Takeshi Iwata laughed.

very scary.

   However, everyone took courage and noticed that the boss's fingers were tapping on a stack of manuscript papers on the desk.

   It clearly reads:

   "Kill That Man".

   Ask for tickets, ask for support, thank you all. I will continue to code the black car, don't worry.
