Chapter 382

The explosive popularity on the Internet, the super high score on Xingkong Net, and the countless good reviews from film critics and the audience... instantly make "Resident Evil" a hit all over the Internet, attracting a massive number of audience members to buy tickets to watch it!

Even if capital takes action and uses secret means, it is of no avail.

The audience has a clear mirror in their hearts; whether the movie is good or not, they know it in their hearts.

When they encounter a truly excellent movie, they will spontaneously speak up for this movie and maintain it.

The film and television industry, in the final analysis, is content is king!

The next day.

The second day of the Lunar New Year.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

The box office figures for the first day of the Spring Festival season were freshly released, with a total of 1. billion!

Ranking first was "Resident Evil," with a first-day box office exceeding 600 million; "Me and My Mother" came in second with 250 million, while "A Comedy Family" temporarily placed third with 240 million!

Not long after, the Lady Jiang Yu Studio, the partner cinema chains, and the actors who participated in "Resident Evil" all posted a celebratory poster for breaking the 600 million mark on the first day!

Lady Jiang Yu's friends in the industry also reposted it one after another.

At this moment.

The internet exploded even more!

"Six hundred million! My god!"

"Holy crap! Lady Jiang Yu is awesome!"

"I remember their second movie only made 300 million on its first day, now it's straight to 600 million, they're getting more and more heaven-defying!"

"Only??? (Laughing and crying), industry insider passing through, do you know what a 300 million first day means? That's already a dream out of reach for many directors their whole lives, let alone 600 million! Too humble-bragging!"

"Six hundred million on the first day, this is heading for a 2 billion box office."

"Based on my experience, it's more than that, 3 billion is also possible!"

"Too insane!"

"Wife is the best (voice cracking)!"

"One thing to say, it's really good!"

"..."

At this very moment.

The sisters' expressions, however, became very strange.

After the first-day box office came out, they received WeChat messages from many people one after another.

Such as:

Yang Mi: "Congratulations, amazing!"

Li Li Yaohuo: "Director Yue is awesome! This trash director begs Director Yue to take me along."

Xuan Yi: "Congratulations! Congratulations! Congratulations to Director Yue for hitting 600 million on the first day!"

Lu Liang: "You guys are too strong!"

Lady Jiang Lady Jiang Zuofei: "Sister is awesome! No one else compares!"

Additionally, there were also messages from teachers.

Ye Ye Rongyu: "My good apprentice is truly capable, well done."

The young girl smiled; of course she was capable.

Cheng Cheng Shuying: "You didn't disgrace the prestige of our Cheng-style Qingyi."

The young girl blinked; anyway, she didn't see what a movie about a biochemical apocalypse had to do with the Cheng-style Qingyi, but as long as this big sister was happy, it was fine.

It was just that the messages from those close friends were quite lewd.

"Craving it." This was sent by Lin Yan.

"Your figure is really good, want a hug." This was sent by Zhu Zhu Xudan.

"Hubby, I love you." Dai Si didn't hide it at all.

"Really want to lick the screen..." Jiana had also learned to be bad.

"Boss, please keep me." Zhao Zhao Jingmai was a bit more subtle.

"Sister Yue, thump me..." Chen Yao specifically sent a voice message.

The young girl highly suspected whether she had some hidden talent for turning others into perverts, or if these women were like this deep down, and their true nature was just erupting now?

But, come to think of it... it felt pretty good.

The sisters looked at each other and replied to everyone one by one with their phones.

Over the next few days.

The box office of "Resident Evil" climbed steadily under the explosive heat and word-of-mouth!

Six hundred million was not its end, just its starting point!

And as movies with similarly large investments—"Me and My Mother" and "A Comedy Family," although overall their box office was decent, compared to "Resident Evil," their box office looked very lackluster.

It could be said they were being pinned to the ground and beaten by "Resident Evil."

In the following days, as the cinema chains increased the screenings for "Resident Evil," the gap grew wider and wider, until finally, one couldn't even see its taillights.

As for other movies, there was no need to say more.

One week later.

The cumulative box office of "Resident Evil" reached 2. billion!

Rounded up, it was approximately 3 billion!

It remained the number one box office hit of the Spring Festival season in China; this movie taking the championship for the Spring Festival season was almost a certainty, even Jesus couldn't stop it.

Not only that.

Looking globally, "Resident Evil" was also the number one global box office hit during the same period!

This box office achievement surpassed a host of Hollywood blockbusters, including several superhero movies and science fiction blockbusters.

You have to know, Hollywood blockbusters are generally not released in a single market; besides the North American market, there are Japan, South Korea, Western Europe, Australia, India, the Middle East, etc., while "Resident Evil" was only released within the Chinese market.

This was truly fighting the global market with the market of one country!

And yet it won.

It was enough to see the box office appeal of "Resident Evil" and the terrifying potential of the Chinese market.

It left countless foreigners in shock.

And the box office of this movie was also the craziest and most terrifying of all Lady Jiang Yu's movies so far!

The reasons for this were multifaceted.

First, it was the Spring Festival season, everyone had money and time! And those watching movies weren't just individuals, they were often watching as a family unit; after all, gathering together for the New Year, one couldn't just watch a movie and eat alone.

Second, this was Lady Jiang Yu's first sci-fi and commercial film; before it was released, it was already full of anticipation.

Third, the novel and stunning zombie setting; people are curious, and the appearance of a new movie setting would attract a lot of attention.

Fourth, the young girl spent a heavy 500 million in investment, maxing out the special effects of the entire movie; it could be said she put her heart and soul into this aspect.

Fifth, this was a female-led movie, and the lead actress was top-tier in the Chinese entertainment industry in terms of looks, figure, acting, and action scenes...

Combined, the right time, the right place, and the right people created such a blockbuster-level movie.

Precisely because of this, even though the movie hadn't left theaters yet and there was still high room for box office growth, Lady Jiang Yu had officially and successfully joined the ranks of China's top filmmakers with this movie's performance!

Calculating carefully, they were now 5 billion box office directors + screenwriters + lead actresses!

The first-week box office of the Spring Festival season was released, bringing a huge shock to the industry, like a vast ocean, stirring up huge waves.

【Garbled text】

"It's already close to 3 billion now, if things go well, Lady Jiang Yu's movie might enter the top ten in Chinese film history!"

"I estimate there's no problem, the tenth highest box office in film history is 3. billion, 'Resident Evil' isn't far off."

"They are now 5 billion box office directors, oh, right, not just directors, but also screenwriters, and the lead actresses... they achieved in just three movies what others couldn't achieve in a lifetime!"

"Chosen ones!"

"Wrong! They are God's own daughters!"

"They are only twenty years old! It's hard to imagine what level they will grow to in the future? Internationally famous directors? Global superstars?"

"These twins are too abnormal! Too evil!"

"Didn't expect them to be so ruthless in commercial films! If they can continue to make movies like 'Resident Evil' in the future, the future film market will be very interesting!"

"Tell a horror story, no need for 'similar,' 'Resident Evil' still has sequels, if I were them, I'd be dying to make three, four, or five of these movies!"

"Rolled crazy!"

"Too crazy! Truly the Emperor of Rolling!"

"Kneeling and begging Lady Jiang Yu to go roll the music scene, web novel scene, anime scene, streamer scene, anything is fine, can you please let the film and television scene go first?"

The last discussion topic didn't take long to go crazy on the internet; whether playing with memes or voicing opinions, film and television industry practitioners were posting such Weibo posts one after another.

They were truly scared by these two moons!
