Chapter 497 497, Unhappy

【With the strong support of Samsung, the leading electronics company in South Korea, Sun Hao's latest sci-fi blockbuster "The Martian" swept the global film market

At 19:00 Beijing time, 20:00 Tokyo Seoul time, and 7:30 a.m. Eastern Time in the United States, the domestic sci-fi blockbuster "The Martian" released simultaneously around the world burst out with amazing energy.

As of 5 a.m. Beijing time, the global real-time box office plus pre-sale box office of the film has reached an astonishing 560 million US dollars, which is 360 million US dollars higher than the box office of "Moon", another sci-fi film shot by Sun Hao at the same time, which was released two months ago.

This also broke the record of the highest single-day box office sales in the history of world cinema.

The reason why "The Martian" is so popular is mainly due to the strong support of Samsung, the leading electronics company in South Korea.

At 5 pm yesterday, Beijing time, the company simultaneously broadcast advertisements on major TV media around the world...]

[On the first day of the Lunar New Year, major domestic cinemas set off a wave of movie watching

The audience spent 25 yuan to buy a movie ticket to watch a movie, and the Samsung Group of South Korea would subsidize the audience with 50 yuan in cash, or 100 yuan in electronic product vouchers..., which directly stimulated the enthusiasm of domestic audiences to watch "The Martian".

Last night, the first-tier, second-tier, third-tier, and even remote small county cinemas in China were also crowded with people, and the audience lined up from the ticket office to the street...]

[The box office of "The Martian" on the first day was as high as 560 million US dollars. With this film, Sun Hao has officially been promoted to a world-class director

There is a very strict classification system for movie stars and movie directors in Hollywood.

Every time a movie comes out, the staff of the Hollywood film distribution company will drive on the street to conduct random surveys.

Randomly invite people of all ages, races, and professions to watch movies in the cinema for free. After watching the movie, the staff will ask the respondents to fill out a very detailed questionnaire.

Which actor impressed you the most in this movie? How is the story of the movie? How are the pictures? How would you rate the director's directing ability?

Yesterday, in North America, director Sun Hao scored the highest, reaching an unprecedented 9.1 points, which was 0.2 points higher than the score of James Cameron, the Hollywood director who directed the movie "Titanic" at the time...]

………

The Korean chaebols are too powerful, even more powerful than their leaders. Fearing retaliation, Sun Hao did not dare to stay in Seoul for long.

The next morning, at dawn, Sun Hao boarded a flight to Beijing. When he arrived in Beijing and bought a few newly-published newspapers at the airport, Sun Hao realized that his worries were a bit unnecessary.

Lee Kun-hee, a cunning old man, is indeed a legendary figure of the Korean hero level. He used photos and videos as threats to secretly trick him, but who would have thought that he would immediately turn the passive into active and directly transform the crisis into an opportunity for development...

Moviegoers, if you want cash, it is twice the price of the movie ticket, but if you want vouchers for Samsung electronic products, haha, there are four times, six times, eight times or even ten times the product vouchers for you to choose.

In order to simplify the cumbersome exchange procedures, Samsung also stipulates that if moviegoers choose product vouchers, they don’t even need to exchange them. They can directly take the movie ticket stubs of "The Martian" to the Samsung product sales area of ​​major shopping malls to buy goods.

I don’t know about other places, anyway, Sun Hao came out of the airport and passed by two Gome malls. There were long queues at the entrances of the two Gome malls.

Under the condition that each movie ticket stub is limited to one Samsung electronic product, the domestic consumer market still has such amazing purchasing power...

Haha, buddy admits that buddy miscalculated in this matter!

…

I wanted to give Samsung a blow, but ended up letting the father and son of the Li family take advantage of it. Sun Hao was not in a good mood.

I wanted to go to the cinema to watch a movie and feel the audience's admiration for me... but now I don't have to go. I'd better go home and take a nap.

The taxi stopped near Nanluoguxiang. Sun Hao paid the fare, got off the car, put on his backpack and walked towards home. But when he reached the entrance of Shoubi Hutong, he immediately saw seven or eight familiar figures wandering in front of his house.

"Hey..., Mr. Han, Big Brother, Brother Dong, why are you here?"

"It's the New Year, we came here to wish you a happy new year today, isn't it?!" Qin Long was the most excited. He didn't care whether Sun Hao had luggage behind him. He ran over and hugged him and started spinning in circles.

"Uh..."

Sun Hao, who was picked up and spun in circles by this kung fu superstar, was the first to sweat. I'm not a beauty. You're making me feel a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, the backpack weighing more than 20 kilograms worked. After turning around twice, Qin Long took the initiative to put Sun Hao down.

To express excitement, it’s enough to express the meaning, and there is no need to hurt your old waist.

“Sun Hao, you are awesome!”

Although he didn’t know it in advance, Han Shanye was still impressed by Sun Hao’s generosity after seeing the Samsung advertisement. This kid is really bold and daring. I am convinced.

“Brother, I apologize to you. I didn’t get through to you yesterday. I scolded you in my heart, but I didn’t expect you to send me such a big satellite!”

Yu Dong, who was more straightforward than Han Shanye, gave Sun Hao a big bear hug and said what he was thinking on the spot.

“Haha…”

Sun Hao smiled and patted him, indicating that he didn’t care about it at all.

Behind the three bosses, there were five beauties standing, namely sisters Li Xue, Li Bingbing, Hu Jing, Yuan Quan...well, and Mei Ting.

"Congratulations to your boss, "The Martian" is a box office hit!"

"Thank you, but the year-end bonus won't be paid to you until the sixth day of the Lunar New Year."

"I know!" Li Xue's face turned red and she took the initiative to step aside.

"Congratulations to Director Sun, "The Martian" is a box office hit!" Li Bingbing was more enthusiastic than her sister. She hugged Sun Hao and didn't want to let go.

"Thank you, Sister Bingbing. I think your hair seems to have grown longer."

Sun Hao's move really worked. When Li Bingbing saw him mentioning her hair, she immediately let go of her hand and touched her head.

"Director Sun, after filming Star Master's "Shaolin Soccer", I look pretty energetic with my short hair, right?"

"Oh, that's alright!"

"So is there a role in "The Fast and the Furious" that's suitable for me?"

"Haven't you already received a lot of film offers?" At this time, Sun Hao had time to take off his luggage from his back.

"There are many, but compared to your movies, the movies of other directors seem to be the same."

"Well…"

Sun Hao didn't know how to pick up what Li Bingbing said.

However, fortunately, several classmates came to Sun Hao's rescue.

"Sun Hao, Director Sun, it's too cold outside. Why don't we go to your house to chat." Hu Jing and Yuan Quan had a very good relationship with Sun Hao, and they talked casually. They hugged Sun Hao and walked home.

"Sun Hao..."

"Um?"

"I heard that you are going to send Liu Ye to prison?" Hu Jing asked.

"I have this idea because the name of the next TV series is "Prison Break."

"Then can our Xia Yu participate in the show?" Her boyfriend is not very career-minded, so Yuan Quan never misses any opportunity to fight for him.

"Yes..., but you also have to go to prison to experience life."

"Hey..., Cheng, I'll call Xia Yu right away."

Several young people walked in front with Sun Hao in their arms, and the three big guys followed slowly behind. The group walked into the courtyard in a lively manner.

It was almost noon, and when Sun Hao was about to ask these people what they were eating, Mei Ting timidly grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Sun Hao, what about... me?"
