Chapter 94

The review from Hollywood Daily made some audiences who were not prepared to watch this film feel curious.

Then they entered the cinema.

A few hours later.

The box office statistics for the premiere day were released!

The first-day box office for all of North America reached 4.5 million US dollars!

The result was neither good nor bad.

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

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

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

This box office explosion made Fox realize that this play is very likely to create history just like Home Alone before!

They immediately invested costs and increased efforts to promote it!

At the same time, they also started contacting overseas exhibitors, preparing to carry out the overseas screening plan.

On the fourth day, The Sixth Sense's daily box office reached a staggering 15 million US dollars!

Chen Mo, who had been gone for a year, became a hit 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!

Just like before, countless movie companies sent audition invitations to Chen Mo.

And at this moment in Chen Mo's home.

Mother Chen stood by the window, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, looking at the street outside the window.

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

Because Chen Mo had two big hits in a row, establishing his status as Hollywood's number one child star, it was enough for paparazzi to squat outside and sneak photos.

"Old Chen, there are several paparazzi outside now, I think we should hire a bodyguard and a driver for Momo."

Mother Chen turned around and said to Chen's father, who was sitting by the sofa.

After hearing this, Chen's father nodded directly in agreement: "I agree, our son is so popular now, there are so many people who like Momo, but at the same time it also means there are people who hate him; maybe there will be some extreme people who do something to Momo, finding a bodyguard is a must."

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

The Old Zhang in Chen's father's mouth was a friend of his when he was in Jingcheng before.

"Hmm, remember, what's wrong?"

Mother Chen asked.

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

Chen's father said.

Hearing Chen's father's words, Mother Chen nodded directly: "Alright, then you go back and ask, for finding a bodyguard, find one who has retired from the army, we can also rest assured with the people's own soldiers!"

"Hmm."

The conversation between the two ended.

Early the next morning, Chen's father took a plane to Jingcheng.

And during the time Chen's father went to Jingcheng, the popularity of The Sixth Sense in Los Angeles continued.

The daily box office was maintained at over 10 million!

Mid-November.

Chen's father brought a sturdy man of about forty years old back to Los Angeles from Jingcheng.

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

Has been on the battlefield! Has 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 couldn't support the whole family, so under the introduction of Chen's father's friend, he followed Chen's father abroad to be a bodyguard for Chen Mo.

Chen's father brought Zhou Baoguo to Huang Jinhaian, and then introduced him to Mother Chen and Chen Mo.

Chen Mo, learning that Zhou Baoguo had been on the battlefield, immediately showed a look of admiration on his face, calling him Uncle Zhou affectionately.

And for Chen Mo, this cute child, Zhou Baoguo also liked him 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, if you make a mistake, it's easy to beat someone to death."

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 had obtained beginner fighting techniques through the system, compared to real killing techniques, it was definitely not on the same level.

As for why Chen Mo wants to learn this.

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

Maybe when he grows up, when picking up girls, he picks up someone's mistress, he can also save his life.

Time reached 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 US dollars!

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

Just like Home Alone before, the countries for overseas release this time were still more than twenty.

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

That is to say, The Sixth Sense's global total box office reached a staggering 760 million US dollars!

This result made Chen Mo's fame rise a few more notches!

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

And in Hollywood, or even 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's father negotiated with Fox before was 35%.

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

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

Of course, Chen Mo's family can't get this 190 million into their hands.

Because they still need to pay taxes.

Have to say, the taxes in the free country are really high!

Chen's father specially hired more than ten professionals to make a reasonable tax avoidance plan, and finally used the method of reasonable tax avoidance, and finally still handed over nearly 80 million US dollars in taxes.

Nearly half of the income!

Such high taxes, besides the original high taxes, are also because Chen Mo's family is of Chinese nationality.
