Chapter 295

Lost the bet.

The Lima Society would be abandoned by capital.

That was without suspense.

This film, "Detective Tang Renjie," had a total investment of 170 million.

Add in publicity costs, and it was roughly around 200 million.

Jiaxing Media put in 50 million.

Eastern Muge put in 70 million.

The remaining portion was divided among China Film Group, Bona Film Group, and Huayi Brothers.

According to the film's box office revenue split of three parts.

········· Requesting flowers 0 ······

This film would need 600 million at the box office just to break even.

600 million.

In the previous life, that was very easy.

But in this world, entertainment was scarce, and good works were few.

The film consumption market was extremely sluggish.

The current ceiling for domestic film box office, "Monster Hunt," hadn't even reached 1.5 billion.

Under this kind of situation.

It was hard to suddenly produce a film at the three-to-five-billion level.

Considering that "Detective Tang Renjie" had earned over 2 billion at the box office in the previous life.

And now there was Su Chen, whose popularity and traffic were explosive, holding things down.

Even with the sluggish film consumption market.

It could still pull in around 2 billion!

The overall market for film consumption in this world was terrible.

It wasn't that people couldn't afford to spend money.

It was that there were no good works—everything was garbage.

Once a quality, solid good film appeared.

The audience was willing to spend money to watch it.

2 billion wasn't an exaggeration!

It might even hit 2.5 billion!

"How much?"

...... 0

Hearing Su Chen say 2 billion.

Yang Mi vigorously rubbed her ears.

Then placed her fair, delicate little hand on Su Chen's forehead.

Suspecting he had a fever.

"Su Chen, you don't have a fever, do you?"

"Even when Sister Reba had a fever, she wasn't as feverish as you."

Sister Reba shot back: "You're the one with a fever, I'm purely taking collateral damage."

Su Chen's face was calm.

"Didn't you all say so?"

"My biggest flaw is that I like to brag."

"My biggest strength is that every brag I make comes true."

Yang Mi gave a thumbs-up.

"Then you really can brag!"

"Alright, alright, this time I'll watch how you reach that 2-billion target."

In this world, people had no concept of a 2-billion box office.

Because there wasn't even a single film that had broken 1.5 billion.

What would break 2 billion?

It was like a beggar.

Can't even afford a meal, yet already thinking about buying a house and a car!

Su Chen smiled faintly.

"Then let me make a bet with you—if this film doesn't hit 2 billion at the box office, you name the punishment."

Liu Tianxian suggested: "You give each of us a watch, ten-million-level."

Su Chen agreed without hesitation: "No problem."

"What if it hits 2 billion at the box office?"

Tang Yan shook her head vigorously.

"There's simply no possibility of that, so there's no need to discuss what comes after."

Su Chen sighed.

"I'm clearly this big, so why do you all insist on underestimating me?"

"Fine then, I won't let you put up stakes—let's just wait and see the result!"

At that moment, Sister Reba could no longer wait and grabbed Su Chen's arm.

"Stop talking about such useless topics."

"We haven't seen each other for two or three months; let's get straight to something practical."

"Sisters, quickly carry Su Chen into the Panxi Cave!"

Su Chen instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

He had originally thought that possessing a luxurious group of goddesses made him a winner in life.

He never expected that he was merely Tang Seng!

His home was actually raising a bunch of spider demons waiting to eat his flesh! Six.
