Chapter 51

They thought about all the shots that appeared in this play in their minds, and then thought about the ending they just saw, everything matched!

"Oh! God! It turned out to be such an ending!"

"My God, I have to watch it again now!"

"I have been conquered by this child! Whether it is his acting or the plot of this play, it makes me want to watch it again!"

"Go! Continue to buy tickets!"

The next day.

November 2nd.

*The Hollywood Reporter*, *Entertainment Daily*, and many other entertainment newspapers published reviews about *The Sixth Sense*.

The reviews were all praise for this movie and Chen Mo's acting without exception.

The review published by *The Hollywood Reporter* was "*Alternative Horror Film, Confession of Self-Redemption!*"

"*The Sixth Sense* released yesterday, starring popular child star Chinese actor Chen Mo. Unlike comedy films, this play let me clearly see the acting of a six-year-old child. It is no exaggeration to say that his acting even surpassed many adults!"

"That kind of loneliness from the heart, those black eyes full of tears, that pale cute little face, from the initial misunderstanding by the mother, to the final confession of the protagonist Cole, all this makes the inner emotional torrent like suddenly opening the gate!"

"The final reversed ending directly raised this play to a height! Who is redeeming whom? I believe many friends will choose to watch it a second time after watching it the first time." ===== CHAPTER 96 =====

The review of *The Hollywood Reporter* made some audience members who were not prepared to watch this film curious.

Then they entered the cinema.

A few hours later.

The box office statistics for the premiere day came out!

The first-day box office in North America reached 4.5 million dollars!

The result is neither good nor bad.

But after the second day's box office came out, both Fox Film Corporation and the Chen Mo family were excited.

The daily box office on the second day reached 8.3 million!

And the daily box office on the third day directly broke 10 million!

This explosive box office made Fox Film Corporation realize that this play is likely to create history like *Home Alone* before!

They immediately invested costs to increase efforts to promote!

At the same time, they also began to contact overseas exhibitors to prepare for the overseas screening plan.

On the fourth day, the daily box office of *The Sixth Sense* reached an astonishing 15 million dollars!

Chen Mo, who had been away for a year, became popular again!

This time he no longer relied on his looks and cuteness to win the audience's love.

This time he conquered the Hollywood audience with his acting!

Like before, countless film companies sent audition invitations to Chen Mo.

And at this moment in Chen Mo's home.

Chen Mu stood by the window, frowning slightly looking at the street outside the window.

Some paparazzi on the street were holding cameras waiting for Chen Mo to appear.

Because Chen Mo's two consecutive films were big hits, establishing his status as Hollywood's number one child star, it was enough for the paparazzi to squat outside and sneak photos.

"Old Chen, there are several paparazzi outside now, I think it's time to hire a bodyguard and a driver for Mo Mo."

Chen Mu turned around and said to Chen Fu, who was sitting by the sofa.

After listening, Chen Fu directly nodded and agreed: "I agree, our son is so popular now, so many people like Mo Mo, but it also means that some people hate him, maybe some extreme people will do something to Mo Mo, finding a bodyguard is a must."

Speaking of this, Chen Fu seemed to have thought of something and said: "By the way, do you remember Old Zhang?"

The Old Zhang in Chen Fu's mouth is a friend he had when he was in Jingcheng before.

"Hmm, remember, what's wrong?"

Chen Mu asked.

"Old Zhang is a soldier who transferred to civilian work, he has been on the battlefield before, I heard him mention it before, I will go back to Jingcheng and ask him if he can help find reliable people."

Chen Fu said.

Hearing Chen Fu's words, Chen Mu nodded directly and said: "Okay, then you go back and ask, if you want to find a bodyguard, find one who has retired from the army, we can also rest assured about the people's soldiers!"

"Hmm."

The conversation between the two ended.

Early the next morning, Chen Fu took a plane to Jingcheng.

And during the time Chen Fu went to Jingcheng, the popularity of *The Sixth Sense* in Los Angeles continued.

The daily box office remained above 10 million!

Mid-November.

Chen Fu brought a sturdy man in his forties from Jingcheng back to Los Angeles.

The man's name is Zhou Baoguo, born in '52, exactly forty years old this year.

Been on the battlefield! Made contributions!

Because of some reasons, he retired from the army. Although the army arranged a job, there were many people in the family, and the salary could not support the family, so under the introduction of Chen Fu's friend, he followed Chen Fu abroad to be Chen Mo's bodyguard.

Chen Fu brought Zhou Baoguo to Huang Jinhaian and introduced him to Chen Mu and Chen Mo.

Chen Mo learned that Zhou Baoguo had been on the battlefield, and a look of admiration appeared on his face, and he kindly called him Uncle Zhou.

And for Chen Mo, this cute child, Zhou Baoguo also liked it very much.

"Uncle Zhou, do you know kung fu? Do you know killing techniques?"

Chen Mo pulled Zhou Baoguo and asked.

"Uh, I don't know kung fu. If it's killing techniques, is it fighting? I know some fighting, but it's not suitable for you to learn. You are still too young, and if you make a mistake, it's easy to kill someone."

Zhou Baoguo scratched the back of his head and said truthfully.

Hearing Zhou Baoguo's words, Chen Mo became even more interested.

Then in the time that followed, Chen Mo began to beg Zhou Baoguo to teach him.

Although he obtained primary fighting skills through the system, compared to real killing techniques, it is definitely not on the same level.

As for why Chen Mo wants to learn this.

Mainly as a reborn person who has lived a second life, Chen Mo feels that learning this skill is also a means of saving his life in the future.

Maybe when he grows up, he will pick up some big shot's mistress while picking up girls, and he can also save his life.

Time arrived in December.

The screening of *The Sixth Sense* in North America ended. In the twenty-plus days from release to removal, the total box office in North America reached 340 million dollars!

And at the same time as *The Sixth Sense* was removed, overseas started the release of this film!

Like *Home Alone* before, the countries released overseas this time are still more than twenty.

In the twenty days since the release, the overseas box office reached 420 million dollars!

That is to say, the global total box office of *The Sixth Sense* reached an astonishing 760 million dollars!

This achievement made Chen Mo's fame rise a few more points!

In terms of child stars, Chen Mo is definitely the number one person who deserves the name!

And in Hollywood, or even in the global film industry, just talking about box office, Chen Mo can definitely squeeze into the second-tier level!

Box office explosion!

The share Chen Fu previously negotiated with the Fox company was 35%.

After removing the share with the theater, 760 million dollars only left 570 million.

35% of 570 million, which is 190 million dollars.

Of course, the Chen Mo family cannot get this 190 million.

Because they still need to pay taxes.

I have to say that the taxes in the Free Country are really high!

Chen Fu specially invited more than a dozen professionals to make a reasonable tax avoidance plan, and finally used the method of reasonable tax avoidance, and finally handed over nearly 80 million dollars in taxes.

Nearly half of the income!

Such high taxes, besides the original high taxes, are also because the Chen Mo family is of Chinese nationality. ===== CHAPTER 97 =====
