Chapter 517
This made Meimei find it a little funny.
"Have you made so many box-office hits over a hundred million that you're no longer nervous? Every ordinary film director gets nervous on the day of the official release, afraid the movie won't be liked by everyone!"
Xu Can shook his head, "I'm still nervous, after all, I've made some changes—not entirely following the script from my past life…"
Now it was the woman in front of him who was confused. How could she not understand a word?
When Xu Can realized it, he quickly retracted those words.
"I must not be awake yet—I dreamed I crossed over. Isn't that insane?"
He went up and hugged Meimei.
"Of course it's just a child's dream—how else could you say something so absurd? But don't worry, even if you did cross over, I'll go with you. No matter where you go, east or west, north or south, I'll find you!"
"You start the morning with such cloying words—obviously you dreamed about me last night!"
After breakfast, Xu Can drove to the cinema.
Watching Meimei asleep beside him, he figured she'd been nervous last night.
They arrived at the cinema quickly, and Meimei felt a little embarrassed, "How did I fall asleep in the car?"
Xu Can turned his head and wiped away the drool at the corner of Meimei's mouth.
His face still wore a doting smile, "If you want to sleep in my car, sleep. Don't feel restrained. Be yourself in front of me—otherwise, why are you with me if you want to be more nervous?"
Meimei blushed and got out of the car.
The burly giant at the cinema entrance made Meimei pause—luckily Xu Can had explained ahead of time, or she'd have been terrified.
They entered through the back door in advance.
The front entrance would be completely jammed.
The pre-sale volume for Thor 2 was simply too high.
"Thank goodness we bought tickets here in advance—I never thought a cinema on the verge of bankruptcy could even secure the rights to Thor 2!"
"Right? Before, the cinema's most popular movies couldn't even screen. What's the point of coming to such a small cinema?"
"Strange—the old owner used to wander around here every day. Why can't we see him now?"
"Haven't you heard? The owner here changed long ago!"
"Only after a new owner took over could we get these rights—amazing! Now I can come to this cinema often!"
"Those guards at the entrance look so trustworthy—there won't be any accidents here!"
Xu Can sat quietly in an empty screening room.
"Are all the neighboring rooms packed? Will it be bad for just the two of us to take up an entire screening room? Many people couldn't get tickets!"
"No, don't worry—we have two showings tonight. Other cinemas only have one screening, but we're showing two—they'll definitely get tickets!"
His own cinema could freely change showtimes.
When the movie ended, Meimei couldn't help but clap.
After all, only the two of them were here—no one would be disturbed.
As they stepped out wearing hats, Xu Can quietly listened to the conversations around him.
After more than ten minutes, he heard not a single complaint—only praise.
Xu Can was still satisfied.
He watched some people who had just finished one screening go right back in for the second.
"They're clearly very satisfied—now I don't have to worry. I really liked this movie too—it's a super-fun superhero film with earth-shattering special effects and plenty of humor!"
Request flowers
Xu Can nodded gently.
"You really got into it—your summary was spot-on!"
Box office is the true test of a movie's success.
Everyone was watching the box-office figures.
【Only on the weekend day, global box office reached $250 million!】
Global simultaneous release, setting a new record.
Overall box office saw a significant increase.
"My god, this box office totally shut them up—especially our own cinema, which attracted tons of viewers!"
Meimei was extremely excited.
Cinema staff were swamped.
"We've added so many Thor showings, yet crowds still fill every single one. Luckily the boss gives us double overtime pay—we can earn extra during this surge in popularity!"
"I only just found out our boss is the legendary Movie God, Xu Can!"
"No way, you just found out? I thought you knew from the start—they look exactly alike!"
Xu Can was the cinema's owner, and with Thor's extra screenings, the cinema attracted massive attention.
The manager couldn't answer all the calls—it made him even more excited.
The boss had once said advertisers would come begging for partnerships—sure enough, it happened!
More and more sponsors and advertisers called—before, they begged others to invest; now, they couldn't keep up with investment offers!
Everything turned out as hoped.
Xu Can remained calm.
He signed over a dozen contracts—his hand was already numb.
"Sign a bit later—how many more are left?!"
"These are all the chain contracts—other cinemas have also been revealed as yours. These advertisers are all here for you!"
"Did they all send them over? Sign all today—don't sign any more tomorrow. There's just too many—I've got other work tomorrow!"
The manager quickly forced a smile. "There are a few contracts that were already agreed upon today that absolutely have to be signed tomorrow…"
