The reputation of "Kung Fu" is once again fermenting on the Internet, and the popularity of the topic has completely surpassed "Straight into the Sky".
"Up to the Sky", which was the most talked about before its release, suddenly became a mere foil.
"Seeing that so many people on the Internet were saying that "Kung Fu" was good, I went to the cinema to watch it. After watching it, I felt that it was really amazing. Who would have thought that martial arts action movies could be made like this."
"Teacher Tan Yue has never let us fans down. "Kung Fu" is still a rare and high-quality work."
"An arrow piercing the clouds, thousands of troops are coming to meet each other, fans of "Kung Fu" are here to gather!"
"Many of the dialogues in "Kung Fu" are so magical. I still feel a little bit funny when I think about them."
"I'm going to go to the cinema tomorrow. Do you have any friends who can form a team and go with me?"
...
...
May 4th is the fourth day that "Kung Fu" is released, and it is also the day when the box office results for May 3rd are announced.
At ten o'clock sharp, the data on the official website of the General Administration of Culture will be updated.
First place: "Kung Fu", with a single-day box office of 856 million and a cumulative box office of 1.98 billion.
Second place: "Up to the Sky", with a single-day box office of 477 million and a cumulative box office of 1.574 billion.
Third place: "Strange Mountains and Seas", with a single-day box office of 146 million and a cumulative box office of 416 million.
Fourth place: "Prairie Star", with a single-day box office of 84 million and a cumulative box office of 370 million.
the fifth place:......
After "Kung Fu" exploded in word-of-mouth online, feedback from the box office followed.
In the first two days, there was not much difference in the box office between the two movies "Kung Fu" and "Up to the Sky", but on the third day there was such a big gap.
Looking at the latest data updated on the official website of the General Administration of Culture, some people even rubbed their eyes, suspecting that they had seen it wrong.
They were evenly matched before, but when they woke up, the box office of the two movies was completely different.
"'Kung Fu' is so great, its single-day box office reached 800 million in one day!"
"Please forgive my lack of education. There are only two words that can describe my current mood - 'f*ck'."
"'Kung Fu' is indeed a good movie. The plot is bold and thoughtful, and every actor is impressive. In fact, if you think about it this way, it is reasonable for the box office to increase to this point."
"I admire Teacher Tan Yue more and more. The single-day box office of a martial arts action movie can exceed 800 million. It was something that I couldn't even imagine before."
"I like "Kung Fu" very much, and I am very happy to see the box office is so high."

In the blink of an eye, a week passed.
During this week, topics related to "Kung Fu" were frequently searched on Weibo and were often discussed by netizens.
An under-appreciated martial arts action film surpassed the May Day holidays with unexpected box office results.
Driven by "Kung Fu", movies such as martial arts action movies have once again entered everyone's field of vision.
"Kung Fu" tops the box office charts with a box office of 3.972 billion, and it is the box office champion every day.
The second-placed "Up to the Sky" has a cumulative box office of 2.753 billion in one week. The single-day box office has gradually decreased and is now stable at around 350 million.
"Strange Mountains and Seas" also maintained its third place position, with a cumulative box office of 872 million.
However, "Prairie Star" is increasingly showing its lack of success, with its single-day box office taking less and less, and its cumulative box office has just exceeded 500 million.
Other films performed even worse at the box office.
Major media reports followed closely after the General Administration of Culture announced the box office results.
"Modu Entertainment Morning News": Congratulations to "Kung Fu" for winning a box office of 3.972 billion in one week, winning the single-day box office champion and cumulative box office champion for six consecutive days."
""Southern Entertainment": The martial arts action film that has been dormant for many years has once again become a hot topic with the popularity of "Kung Fu". What kind of miracle has Tan Yue created?"
"Hangzhou Metropolis Entertainment Newspaper: Since the release of many movies during the May Day holiday, "Kung Fu" has earned a box office of 3.972 billion, topping the box office rankings. The most promising one before its release was "Straight Rush" "Yunxiao" was completely overtaken."
"Jinghua Daily: According to the latest data, "Kung Fu" has a cumulative box office of 3.9 billion in one week, and "Straight to the Sky", which ranks second, has a cumulative box office of 2.753 billion."
Online, many netizens were shocked after seeing the box office results of "Kung Fu" in its first week.
"It seems that I still underestimated "Kung Fu" a little. The box office in the first week will exceed 4 billion, which is scary."
"Teacher Tan Yue's golden signature of guaranteed box office has been confirmed once again. As long as there are Teacher Tan Yue's movies, the box office will definitely not be bad."
"Based on the current trend of single-day box office performance of "Kung Fu", it should be another movie that explodes at the box office."
"Teacher Tan Yue is so awesome. A martial arts action movie can produce such results."
"Now I seriously doubt that Mr. Tan Yue is omnipotent and can control all types of movies. I hope to see one of my favorite horror movies one day."
"The word "niubi" has been said too much. From now on, as long as it is a movie by Mr. Tan Yue, I have to readjust my mentality and get used to it."

Huaguang Entertainment Company.
Office of the Vice President.
Qi Kai frowned, rubbed his chin, and stared at the computer screen, his face looking a little solemn.
Displayed on the computer screen is the official website of the General Administration of Culture.
As the market is gradually phasing out martial arts action films, Tan Yue made a film called "Kung Fu".
Qi Kai originally thought that this would be a low point for Tan Yue. Before the movie was released, his suspicion was further verified. The Internet was not very optimistic about "Kung Fu".
Rubbing the corners of his eyes with his fingers, Qi Kai did not expect that "Kung Fu" would still rise, still in an extremely fierce posture.
Even American blockbusters that have always been loved by domestic audiences are no match for Tan Yue this time.
Qi Kai doesn't know who else can beat Tan Yue at the movie box office.

Bright Entertainment Company.
Many people are hotly discussing the box office performance of "Kung Fu".
"The box office performance of "Kung Fu" in its first week was so high?"
"This is Mr. Tan's movie. The box office of Mr. Tan's movies has never been low."
"That's right. I really admire Mr. Tan's strength."
The person next to him sighed and said, "I'm so envious of the people in the film department. I heard from them that when a celebration banquet was held after the movie was removed from the shelves, Mr. Tan would give out big red envelopes to the people in the film department. If It would be great if I was in the film department too.”
"What I envy more is the crew. Their red envelopes are bigger. This time the red envelopes for the crew of "Kung Fu" will definitely not be small."
"No more talking about work, the more I talk about it, the more envious I become."
Ma Guoliang's office.
Zhou Can said excitedly: "Brother Ma, the box office of "Kung Fu" will soon exceed 4 billion!"
Ma Guoliang made tea and said with a smile: "I told you to have confidence in Mr. Tan's movies."
In recent days, I have seen that the single-day box office of "Kung Fu" has increased, but Zhou Can is always worried about the sudden decline in box office results.
Now the box office has accumulated 3.972 billion, which is a reassurance for Zhou Can.
"Kung Fu" has overwhelmingly received positive reviews online, and the box office will definitely increase.
While the two were chatting, Xu Nuo knocked on the door again and came in.
Xu Nuo smiled and said: "Acan, I knew you were here with Teacher Ma."
This time he went to Zhou Can's office first, and when he saw no one there, he guessed it was at Ma Guoliang's place.
"You're here just in time, come and have a cup of tea together." Ma Guoliang said and began to rinse the new cup with tea water.
"Thank you, Teacher Ma." Xunuo sat on the sofa and asked directly: "How about a meal to celebrate tonight?"
The three of them had a great time drinking last time, and the drinking party didn't end until two o'clock in the morning.
Zhou Can thought about the time when the three of him were drinking. Because he was so happy and drank too much, he fell asleep hugging the toilet.
"Okay, let's try the tea I just bought." Ma Guoliang poured water into the cups of three people.
Xu Nuo tasted it carefully and thought it tasted very good: "I just like Teacher Ma, who is so refreshing."
Zhou Can said embarrassedly: "Can you drink less tonight? Now that I think about it, I still feel like I'm full of alcohol."
Xu Nuo and Ma Guoliang are both happy.

President's Office, in Tan Yue's office.
Tan Yue made himself a cup of tea and water, and looked at the official website of the General Administration of Culture, feeling very good.
He was satisfied that "Kung Fu" had a box office of 3.9 billion in its first week of release.
"Kung Fu" can be said to be the pinnacle of Xingye's work. When it was released on Earth, it won the box office championship that year. The runner-up was another movie "House of Flying Daggers".
Tan Yue has always been very confident in this movie. He believes that the final box office performance of "Kung Fu" will not be bad.
'Didi'.
The phone received a message reminder, and Tan Yue saw that it was a message from Xu Nuo.
"Old Tan, the three of us are going to have a drink tonight to celebrate the good box office results of "Kung Fu"."
Of course Tan Yue knew who the other two people were, and then he replied with a question mark to Xu Nuo.
Now he regretted letting Xu Nuo go and have a drink with Ma Guoliang and Zhou Can. These three people were so addicted to alcohol that they drank every day.
Tan Yue called Xunuo worriedly, feeling that they drank too frequently, and said, "It's better to drink less. Drinking too much can easily lead to gout, and you won't be able to find a girlfriend at that time."
Xu Nuo said indifferently: "Don't worry, Lao Tan, we are just having a drink today."
"Okay then, please pay attention."
After putting down the phone, Tan Yue planned to find a time to have a talk with the three of them, saying that he could no longer drink so frequently.
...
...
It's time to get off work in a blink of an eye.
Chen Ziyu came to Tan Yue's office. Tan Yue finished processing the documents in his hands, and the two got off work together.
Seeing Chen Ziyu playing with her mobile phone, Tan Yue said: "What are you looking at? So serious."
"I bought some beef and some vegetables online. Is there anything you want to eat?"
“As a chef, I’ve never been picky about food.”
Chen Ziyu put down her phone: "I've already ordered it. When we get home, these dishes should be delivered."
It was the rush hour for getting off work, and there were still a lot of cars on the road. Tan Yue could only follow a little bit forward.
When the two of them arrived home, the food they ordered had been placed at the door by the errand boy.
After briefly tidying up, the two began to get busy in the kitchen.
Tan Yue was in charge of all the dishes tonight, while Chen Ziyu was helping out.
Every time when cooking, Chen Ziyu would learn from Tan Yue.
The eyes have learned, but the hands have not.
It's obviously the same ingredients and the same order, but it still doesn't taste like Tan Yue.
Chen Ziyu said depressedly: "Why is my food not as delicious as yours?"
Tan Yue stir-fried the chili-fried pork in the pot and replied with a smile: "Maybe I have the talent to be a chef."
Not long after, four delicious dishes were brought to the table by Chen Ziyu.
Tan Yue glanced at the time. In five minutes, the last dish of beef would be ready.
At this time, Tan Yue simply tidied up the kitchen.
Tan Yue came out of the kitchen and shouted: "Ziyu, the dishes are ready, it's time to eat."
Chen Ziyu held a bottle of red wine and two goblets and said, "Let's drink some together!"
"OK."
The corners of Tan Yue's mouth raised slightly and he smiled.
"What's wrong?" Chen Ziyu asked.
Tan Yue explained: "Today Fatty Xu sent me a message saying that he, Ma Guoliang and Zhou Can are going to drink tonight. Thinking that he often drinks, I persuaded him to drink less. I didn't expect that I would also drink tonight."
"Do the three of them drink often?"
"Ma Guoliang and Acan have become drinking buddies now, and with Fatty Xu, a person who likes to drink when he has nothing to do, you can probably imagine the result."
Chen Ziyu smiled and poured a little wine into their goblets.
Dinner started.
In the dark night, there is only a bright moon hanging in the sky.
...
...
Magic City.
Jiang Bei was lying on the deck chair on the balcony, looking at the moon in the sky, feeling very excited.
If it were a martial arts action movie made by someone else, Jiang Bei is sure that the movie would definitely be a hit.
But "Kung Fu" was written by Tan Yue, so the box office shouldn't be too bad, but the current box office results have far exceeded his original expectations.
The box office in the first week was as high as 3.9 billion, and American blockbusters that have always been able to cross the river are no match.
Jiang Bei casually threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray at hand.
He is a self-aware person.
Acknowledging that the two are no longer directors at the same level, he admitted that he was not Tan Yue's opponent, but regarded Tan Yue as an idol and a target for him to chase.
Jiangbei also hopes that one day his films will be able to beat top-notch foreign blockbusters.
Magic City, another community, a large flat.
Zhao Sheng was having dinner with his wife.
The stressful life in the past few years has made him develop the habit of drinking, and he will have a drink every night with dinner.
"Alas..." Zhao Sheng sighed after taking a sip of wine.
Thinking of the box office of "Kung Fu" in its first week, he felt filled with envy and jealousy.
The first-week box office of his own movie "Strange Mountains and Seas" was only 872 million, which was less than a fraction of "Kung Fu".
The popularity of the movie in the early stage has not increased, and the box office will not change much later.
Before the movie was released, I was still dreaming about breaking out of this May 1st slot as a dark horse, but now I can only accept the reality.
