Chapter 1205: Do Not Imitate

~14 min read 2,757 words

"You guys did a good job."

Miss Luo Quan in the live broadcast room laughed so hard her mouth could almost not close: "Being able to rush the box office to 1.5 billion in one day of release is truly underestimating you guys; I originally thought it would be very amazing if it could reach 1 billion, but I didn't expect it to directly break 1.5 billion; the celebration posters can't keep up with the speed of breaking records."

The huge success of *Creation of the World* was within Miss Luo Quan's expectations; she hadn't not fantasized about a 5 billion box office, after all, the low-budget films she filmed before also had box offices of 2 or 3 billion; this time, changing to big-name stars and big productions, a large increase in box office is also a very normal thing.

But a first-day box office of 1.5 billion is indeed too exaggerated; let alone her, the entire Chinese film circle has never seen this formation.

In fact, as early as when the box office broke 1 billion at noon, Weibo had already started to carnival.

Before this, the first-day box office champion was *Detective Chinatown 3*, which was only a little over 1 billion, and *Creation of the World* reached this result in only half the time; how could it not make a group of filmmakers marvel?

The most important thing is, unlike *Detective Chinatown 3* which had the fan base of the previous two parts, *Creation of the World* is completely a brand-new IP; the vast majority of the audience came for Miss Luo Quan's name and the special effects that were blown to the sky.

What does this mean? This means that as long as the word-of-mouth of *Creation of the World* doesn't collapse in the next few days, then the box office of *Creation of the World 2* for the Spring Festival file and *Creation of the World 3* next year will only be more exaggerated than the first part!

A first-day box office of 1.5 billion is already a terrifying data that can be ranked in the world's film history, the king that firmly ranks first this year.

Then the second and third parts will be higher than this; it is truly hard to imagine what kind of situation it will be.

1.8 billion? 2 billion?

If it can really be this fierce, then the birth of *Creation of the World* can definitely be called an epoch-making work in Chinese film; it might just open the prelude to Chinese special effects blockbusters.

If it really succeeds, that is the scene that Director He most desires to see when he entrusted this task.

Of course, even if it doesn't succeed, by virtue of the jobs created, the relevant talents cultivated, the internet discussion heat stirred up, and the investment and production enthusiasm for similar products by *Creation of the World*, this task has already been successfully completed.

So when the record was broken at noon, Miss Luo Quan received a commendation call from Director He.

Miss Luo Quan was also not polite, directly asking Director He for all kinds of promotion, whether official or unofficial; anyway, the main cast list of *Creation of the World* is all there, interview them all in the end, and promote a wave fiercely.

For this request, Director He certainly wouldn't refuse, directly promising her that he would arrange it in the fastest time.

A first-day box office breaking 1.5 billion is indeed very amazing, but if the second-day box office achieves a reverse decline, that is the truly awesome thing.

Although it sounds a bit like a fantasy, if it is under the overwhelming media promotion, then it is still very promising.

It is also because such proud results were achieved that Miss Luo Quan was still live broadcasting late at night, sharing the joy in her heart with the fans.

And when the fans saw Miss Luo Quan so happy, they also teased one after another:

"Streamer, watch your face; don't have such a look of never having seen the world; it's only 1.5 billion."

"First time seeing Luo Bao so happy; the corners of her mouth are about to smile to the roots of her ears."

"This is 1.5 billion; you can't spend it all in a lifetime."

"Only recognize money!!!"

"It would be great if it could achieve a reverse decline tomorrow; logically speaking, this kind of explosive film, under the situation where the internet word-of-mouth score is so high, can generally achieve a reverse decline."

"If it really reverse declined, wouldn't breaking 5 billion box office be easy?"

"More than 5 billion; breaking 10 billion is possible!"

"Chinese film should only have *Wolf Warrior 2* reach 10 billion; if *Creation of the World* can also do it, it will directly earn a fortune."

………………

Looking at the intense discussion of the fans, Miss Luo Quan herself couldn't help but let her imagination run wild.

A 10 billion box office; this is something she really hadn't thought about at all.

*Wolf Warrior 2* could reach 10 billion; although she had a share of the credit, it was more the result of a combination of circumstances.

At that time, China had just become the world's second-largest economy, making a name for itself internationally, and the citizens just needed something to carry that sense of pride of returning to the peak.

And just right, a mainstream film with a script that fit the social needs and was also excellent in all aspects appeared; of course, it soared and couldn't be stopped.

In this, in fact, the collective viewing organized by public institutions and schools played a big role.

If it weren't for this, the box office of *Wolf Warrior 2* would be a lot less.

However, *Creation of the World* is a mythological special effects blockbuster; in terms of subject matter, it is impossible for companies and schools to organize it; there is no such saying.

So even if Miss Luo Quan expands again, she doesn't think *Creation of the World* can get a 10 billion box office.

Of course, 5 or 6 billion can still be rushed; counting abroad, if lucky, there can be a box office of 7 or 8 billion.

"Everyone, don't blow it up like this; the goal of 10 billion is too exaggerated; I think cutting the goal in half is more realistic; even if it's only 5 billion, it has already entered the ranks of the top five in Chinese film history."

Seeing the fans blowing more and more outrageously, Miss Luo Quan hurriedly stepped on the brake, wanting to let everyone calm down a bit.

"Only 5 billion; look at this tone; it's already not treating money as money."

"If you had this achievement, you would also be like this."

"By the way, is *Creation of the World* only filming ensemble films? Are there any individual unit dramas, like *The Avengers*, where every main character is filmed in a film?"

"This is good, this is good; the Three Pure Ones, the two saints of the Western Sect, and Nuwa, I think they can all film a movie."

"The Nuwa played by Wen Xia is too good-looking; the ancient costume look is simply the best in history; I've never seen such a beautiful ancient costume beauty. (Refer to Zhen Mi in *The Advisors Alliance*)"

"Suggest letting Wen Xia's Nuwa and Luo Bao's Guanyin sister link up well, forming a Primordial Sisterhood."

"Oh, just thinking about this picture makes me laugh from ear to ear."

"What the hell, Luo Bao still wants to play Guanyin Bodhisattva?"

"Can't imagine, right? This is the surprise Luo Bao brings; you can never guess what kind of role she will play."

"Actually, it's Cihang Daoist; it's just that according to the setting of *Investiture of the Gods*, Cihang Daoist went to the West at the end of the investiture, incarnating as the Great Merciful and Great Compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, one of the Three Western Saints."

"Guanyin sister doesn't have many scenes in *Investiture of the Gods*, but if it's in *Journey to the West*, she can be called the heroine who shows her face the most; even the Queen Mother of the West doesn't appear as much as her."

"Saying it like this seems to be really true."

"Nonsense, the four-person group of taking scriptures plus the White Dragon Horse are all men; except for the female demons who die one per episode, isn't it just Guanyin Bodhisattva who appears the most."

"I always thought Nezha was the heroine of *Journey to the West*, and only later did I know he was a man."

"No way, in the past, films basically let girls play Nezha; the image is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."

"Isn't *Creation of the World* the same? I heard the actor for Nezha this time is Cheng Nuo."

"Can, the youngest sister of the Springwater group, Luo Bao's apprentice, but it seems she hasn't acted in any plays."

"Springwater group beauties, what is this strange title?"

"It means these artists of the Springwater company are like sisters; Miss Luo Quan is the eldest sister, Wen Xia is the second sister."

"There is also this saying; that's too good; what I like most is sister flowers; Luo Bao... hehehe... my Luo Bao."

"Where did the demon come from? Eat my grandson's stick!"

………………

Just like chatting with the barrage, the few female characters in *Creation of the World*, Miss Luo Quan basically gave them to her own artists to play.

Whether it's saying she is appointing people by favoritism or that fat water doesn't flow to outsiders' fields, she won't refute it.

But these artists in the company, their looks and acting skills are all first-class or even top-level, so why should such good resources be cheapened for outsiders?

Anyway, the complaints outside are complaints, but it can't change her heart of appointing people by favoritism at all.

Relatives who have both ability and looks, not using them is the one whose brain is not good.

As for letting Cheng Nuo play Nezha, this was already decided long ago.

First of all, her looks and physical conditions are very suitable for playing Nezha; not only does it fit the figure of a boy, but it also has the beautiful looks of Nuwa's attendant, simply too perfect.

And Cheng Nuo is only seventeen years old this year, still carrying a sense of youthfulness that hasn't faded; playing Nezha is simply too suitable.

Of course, Cheng Nuo herself still had quite a few complaints about the role of Nezha; this girl who had just started out originally wanted to challenge roles with more difficulty, such as Daji and Shiji Niangniang.

However, when she was auditioning, she was defeated by Lin Lin Ruoli all at once, completely unable to compete with the sexy and charming temperament that the latter revealed easily.

"Better save it, little sister; Nezha is quite suitable for you, and it's one of the righteous protagonists; what more bicycle do you want." After the victory, Lin Lin Ruoli didn't forget to tease Cheng Nuo a few words, the charm of her laughter simply imitated the role of Daji to the point of being three-dimensional.

"Cut, wait until I'm two years older, I'll definitely play better than you!" Cheng Nuo glared at Lin Lin Ruoli unconvinced, but after seeing the obvious gap in figure between the two, she couldn't help but feel a bit discouraged.

Talent in figure is something that cannot be made up for by hard work and exercise.

Some people are destined to be able to bear fruit from thin branches, 120 catties of physique, looking like 110 catties.

Some people are destined to be flat for a lifetime; eating more papaya is useless.

Cheng Nuo is now a typical 2A scenic spot; at first, she didn't pay too much attention, just thinking she was still young, maybe it was thick accumulation and thin hair.

But now that she is seventeen, walking towards eighteen, there is still no movement in front of her chest, which can't help but make her a bit anxious.

Although the master said that for martial arts practitioners, a flat chest is better, more convenient in all aspects, and easier when exercising.

But the master herself has such a good figure; saying such words is really standing and talking without back pain.

So Cheng Nuo feels that it is better to pay some attention to this aspect.

It's not saying she must become the exaggerated appearance of the master and Sister Xu Yanqing, but at least have some characteristics of a girl.

Like now, not being able to distinguish between the front chest and the back, that would be too sad.

I heard Sister Wen Xia got some black technology medicine for breast enhancement, natural without side effects, and the effect is quite good; I don't know if it's true.

Cheng Nuo made up her mind, wait until Sister Wen Xia is free in a while, secretly go find her and ask.

As for why not ask the master directly, it's probably because she's embarrassed.

Of course, Miss Luo Quan herself doesn't know these things.

At this moment, she is still immersed in the dream of the whole internet media exerting force, making the box office of *Creation of the World* achieve a reverse decline on the second day.

However, when she woke up the next day and looked at her phone, she found that things had developed in a direction she hadn't expected.

"*Barbie* officially released, word-of-mouth exploded, or the biggest dark horse of the year?"

"Three-hour global box office breaks 100 million; what kind of sacred being is *Barbie*?"

"Sudden backstab; *Creation of the World*'s throne of global first-day box office champion hasn't been sat warmly yet, and it's already precarious?"

"A true feminist film, a gift for all girls."

"Happy too early; Hollywood is ultimately one move higher."

"Two nuclear bombs, *Barbie* and *Oppenheimer* are the eternal gods?"

………………

A bunch of hot topics in the film circle, Miss Luo Quan looked all the way down; the heat was snatched away by this dark horse called *Barbie*.

There are also many news about *Creation of the World*, but originally today's heat should have belonged to her alone, but now it was suddenly snatched away by others by more than half; this loss is really too big.

Regarding *Barbie*, she had also seen its promotional trailer when she was filming before.

The color tone of this film is very characteristic, almost full of pink, very fitting for the film's title.

But hearing that the theme is anti-patriarchy and political correctness, Miss Luo Quan didn't pay much attention.

After all, according to past experience, this type of film is equivalent to flopping upon release, and there won't be anyone to watch it.

Who knew that after it was truly released, it slapped her hard in the face.

Also released for half a day, the box office of *Barbie* is already 200 million US dollars, equivalent to about 1.3 billion RMB.

If this waits for twenty-four hours to pass, wouldn't it easily break 2 billion?

Actually, how much money is earned really doesn't matter; the key is that this film exploded, snatching the heat that originally belonged to *Creation of the World*.

Yesterday, there were many "pastoral dogs" who were very dissatisfied with *Creation of the World*, thinking why can domestic films have stronger special effects than Hollywood films?

Consequently, they desperately blacked *Creation of the World*.

Now that *Barbie* exploded, this group of people is equivalent to finding a backbone, immediately borrowing this film, and the upcoming *Oppenheimer* to mock *Creation of the World*, saying it can only film some popcorn movies and ultimately lacks depth.

Miss Luo Quan doesn't know what kind of impact this negative influence will have on the box office of *Creation of the World*, but under such a public opinion environment, it is estimated that it will be a bit difficult to achieve a reverse decline.

The result of the matter was the same as Miss Luo Quan thought; although the intensity of promotion was increased on the second day, the box office of *Creation of the World* on the second day suffered a plunge compared to the first day, only 800 million, almost equivalent to being cut in half.

Although it was still very high, it was far from reaching her expectations. ===== CHAPTER 1206 =====
