Song Hao was also curious about how many copies were sold that day.
After all, the movie box office data is very good, but if they are asked to buy "The Wandering Earth", that is a different matter.
So he asked: "How much did we sell today?"
Editor-in-chief Lin’s voice even trembled when he spoke: “One hundred thousand, one hundred thousand copies sold in one day.”
Song Hao was very surprised: "So many?"
"This is because we prepared 100,000 copies before. If we prepared 200,000 copies, maybe we could all sell them out today."
"I didn't expect it to be so popular. Everyone is rushing to read "The Wandering Earth". On book websites like Dangdang, readers who have made reservations are already queuing up."
"I originally thought that setting 600,000 copies for the second printing would be a very bold decision, but as a result, the cumulative number of reservations counted by major websites even reached 700,000 copies."
Song Hao didn't expect everyone to be so supportive of "The Wandering Earth".
You know, they've seen this story once.
Many people bought this book just for collection.
Of course, most people are willing to read it again.
After all, the visual impact is completely different from that of words.
Text is more based on the imagination in everyone's mind.
There is a certain uniqueness.
Now that "The Wandering Earth" is still in theaters, everyone's enthusiasm for this movie has not subsided.
Therefore, now is the best time to publish and release it.
Then Editor-in-Chief Lin said: "Don't worry, Director Song, I have asked the printing factory to work overtime to print, and strive to meet everyone's needs."
"Okay, then I'll bother Editor-in-Chief Lin."
Song Hao hung up the phone.
He also did not expect that the book he published would be highly praised by everyone.
Just when he was about to read "The Wandering Earth" with his own eyes, the phone rang again.
The caller was Director Chu of the Education Bureau.
"Xiao Song."
Song Hao heard Director Chu's voice and immediately said: "Hello, Director Chu."
"Xiao Song, please give me the phone number of Chief Editor Lin of Changjiang Publishing House." Director Chu said.
"Okay, what's wrong?" Song Haoduo asked.
Director Chu explained: "Our Education Bureau will order a batch of "The Wandering Earth" from them and distribute it to primary and secondary schools across the country, so that every school library must have this copy."
Hearing this, Song Hao was flattered.
He didn't expect Director Chu to be so supportive.
Song Hao quickly thanked: "Thank you very much, Director Chu."
"You don't need to thank me. This is your own strength. You have made so many meaningful movies and influenced many young people. These primary and secondary school students are the flowers of the motherland. We also hope that they can have such cultural confidence. ." Director Chu said cheerfully.
Song Hao asked tentatively: "Director Chu, how many copies do you want to order?"
"Two million copies, at least, the primary and secondary schools in every province and city must implement them as new textbooks for the new semester." Director Chu explained.
Song Hao learned that the Education Bureau wanted to acquire two million copies of "The Wandering Earth".
I thought that Director Chu really paid attention to the science fiction imagination of primary and middle school students.
After all, cultivating their interest in aerospace also provides talents for the space agency and the country.
Soon, people on the Internet started discussing "The Wandering Earth".
"A short story with a grand background and a cold discussion on human ethics."
"In this vast life, who knows whether it is a journey or a journey home? When such a brain hole is opened, the fate of the larger earth becomes an unknown exploration, while the survival of a smaller one becomes the greatest meaning of the individual. The former lies in The latter has more revelations, such as the disputes between the two factions in the article and the motivation that supports them - this is why the rebellion occurred and the so-called sense of belief."
"To be honest, when I was watching the movie, I only paid attention to the special effects. Now that I really calm down, I can think of each scene in my mind."
"The imagination is amazing, and the scenes described are shocking, shocking every cell. It is my favorite science fiction at the moment."
“I don’t know why, but after watching the movie once, now I’m watching this one, and I have more to think about.”
"It includes both the distant stars and the universe, as well as deep thoughts based on real society."
Soon, "The Wandering Earth" also appeared on Douban ratings.
Suddenly it reached a high score of 9.0.
Facing the upcoming plot, netizens also urged Song Hao in the comment area.
"Director Song, when will you film "The Wandering Earth 2"?"
"Yes, when will we film "The Wandering Earth 2"!!"
"I believe he should be preparing, and then the third part is in preparation, and the fourth part is ready to be approved. Yes, I guess that's what he did."
"Hahaha, you guys really regard Director Song as a god, don't you?"
"He is truly a genius. I have never seen anyone make so many quality films."
"Not only that, even if he doesn't film, the stories he writes are still very good, just like the recently aired "Lotus Lantern"."
Song Hao saw that everyone was urging him to film "The Wandering Earth 2".
He also responded formally.
"Don't worry, everyone, "The Wandering Earth 2" will be filmed, but not so soon~~ If it is ready, I will let you know at any time!~"
Song Hao's reply also made fans climax.
They comforted each other.
"Don't worry, we are not in a hurry, you must ensure the quality!"
"Yes, you have to ensure the quality. Don't shoot casually just for the sake of bad money!"
"We can afford it!"
"But don't keep us waiting too long!"
"I've waited too long for a movie, so I'm really grateful."
"I hope there will be "The Wandering Earth 2" in next year's Lunar New Year movie!"
"I also hope that the second part will be released as soon as possible while maintaining quality. My kids really can't wait."
"Hahahaha, I am different. I am now. After I watch it 50 times, I will urge you to make the next one."
On the other hand, the domestic box office data of "The Wandering Earth" and "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" are still rising.
"The Wandering Earth" has now exceeded 4.712 billion!
"Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" reached 4.798 billion!
Although these two movies have not exceeded 5 billion.
But it doesn’t stop everyone from calling Song Hao the billion-dollar box office director during the Spring Festival.
This is absolutely terrifying.
No director can do this.
Except Song Hao.
Not only that, "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" is also being released in other countries.
Due to previous publicity, audiences in many Southeast Asian countries are looking forward to it.
After watching the movie, they all praised this animated movie.
They even believe that "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" is already comparable to Japanese comics.
As for the animation fans in Sakura Country, they even feel that "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" has even surpassed their country's animation in some aspects.
The box office of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" in Sakura Country even reached the top 20 in the box office rankings.
It earned a total of 7.9 billion yen at the box office!
"The Wandering Earth" also set off a science fiction trend in North America.
Many viewers and movie fans are discussing the stunning special effects and meaningful background stories of "The Wandering Earth".
Box office records for domestic films in North America are being broken every day!
The current box office of "The Wandering Earth" in North America has reached 29.81 million US dollars.
This is already equivalent to a very successful commercial masterpiece in North America.
Everyone originally thought that there was indeed a gap between "The Wandering Earth" and Hollywood masterpieces.
But after they read it, they didn't think so.
As the box office and word-of-mouth continue to explode, many potential movie fans are growing.
Although the box office upward trend is getting slower and slower.
However, "The Wandering Earth" has successfully broken other countries' initial understanding of Chinese science fiction, and this is enough.
to this end.
Song Hao was even invited by Qingbei University in China to attend a science and technology exchange meeting.
Although Song Hao has repeatedly stated that he does not understand real science.
But the president of Qingbei University still believes that Song Hao can propose very interesting scientific fantasies in "The Wandering Earth", such as "planetary engine", "future underground city", "flint" and so on.
This is a strength in itself.
At the principal's invitation, Song Hao still participated in the exchange meeting.
When the car just drove into the school gate.
Song Hao was startled by the college students on both sides.
They all said excitedly: "Welcome, welcome."
Originally, he thought it was a welcome group organized by the school.
But what I didn't expect was that it was easy to see from everyone's excited expressions that they came to the school gate voluntarily to welcome Song Hao.
So Song Hao got off the bus early.
For a time, many college students also moved forward and said excitedly.
"Director Song, I am your biggest fan. I have watched every movie and TV series you have made."
"Director Song, I am the same. I am really happy that you can come to our exchange meeting today."
"Originally, all of us in the dormitory were going to attend your autograph session, but we had classes that day. There is no other way, Director Song, can you sign your autograph for us?"
Only then did Song Hao realize that they were really here to welcome him.
So he also took the pen and signed it.
And took photos with everyone.
Surrounded by a group of college students, Song Hao walked into the auditorium.
Some college students who didn't know what was going on saw so many people gathered around one person when they passed by, and they even thought something had happened.
When Song Hao entered the auditorium, he found that it was full of people.
At first glance there were probably thousands of people.
Song Hao walked to the podium, first thanked everyone for their enthusiasm, and then talked about the creative ideas of "The Wandering Earth".
All the students present listened carefully.
They all want to know how the drama "The Wandering Earth" came about.
After Song Hao finished talking about his experience, the students all raised their hands and wanted to ask their own questions.
The president of Qingbei University was also very pleased to see this scene.
You must know that these students were not so active in the scientific exchange meetings held before.
He even felt that with Song Hao's ability, it would be a good thing to let him come and give lectures to these students in the future.
When Song Hao finished the exchange meeting and left the campus.
Director Ye called him at this time.
"Hello, Director Ye."
I saw Director Ye saying cheerfully on the other end of the phone: "Director Song, are you busy?"
"No, I'm in the car now. What's wrong?" Song Hao asked.
Director Ye explained: "It's okay, I just want to say what type of TV series are you going to make next? We can continue to cooperate."
Song Hao couldn't laugh or cry: "'Lotus Lantern' has only aired its 15th episode. Has Director Ye already started preparing for the next TV series?"
Director Ye replied: "This "Lotus Lantern" is very good. Although the ratings are not as high as Liang Jian, it has been able to maintain an average ratings of 3%, which is already very impressive. It is on our Mango Channel In a costume drama, it is already a phenomenal achievement.”
He asked anxiously: "Director Song, I am really sincere in continuing to cooperate. If you have the idea of filming a TV series, remember to tell me."
"Don't worry, Director Ye, if I want to film a TV series by then, I will definitely tell you."
Only then did Director Ye hang up the phone with satisfaction.
After hanging up the phone.
Song Hao went online to read netizens' comments on "Lotus Lantern".
"I really like Xiaoyu so much."
"Erlang Shen is too handsome."
"Do you think Chenxiang can successfully rescue the Third Holy Mother in the end?"
"I'm waiting for the latest episode of "The Lotus Lantern" every day."
It can be said that male fans love Xiaoyu played by Shu Chang, while female fans look forward to Jiao Enjun's Erlang Shen every day.
Although this drama was not filmed by Song Hao.
But the content and plot of this story are very popular among everyone.
Therefore, netizens also left messages in the comment area of Song Hao's Weibo.
"Director Song, what is your brain made of? How could you come up with such an awesome script?"
"You are really amazing. You can produce anti-war dramas like "Bright Sword" and the mythical story "Lotus Lantern"."
"To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised at all now that Director Song will make films of any subject. As long as he makes them, I think they will be of good quality."
"Hahahaha, I'm thinking now, is there any movie with a theme that Director Song can't control."
At this time, Song Hao clicked on the system.
The system task has been completed.
He had received two tasks long ago.
The first task is to successfully make a movie's box office exceed 4 billion, and you can get 1,000 movie redemption cards.
The second task is to make the foreign box office total exceed 10 million US dollars!
Both tasks were accomplished with ease.
Song Hao also received 1,000 video redemption cards and a gold treasure chest.
Song Hao was naturally curious about this golden treasure chest.
Then he clicked it.
This treasure chest opened a coupon that could be redeemed for a free video.
It's also a good reward.
But Song Hao doesn't plan to work right now, so he has not used the coupon for free videos.
I spent more than half a year making these two movies last year, which can be said to have consumed a lot of energy.
You should take a good rest no matter what.
Just at this time, Ni Ni sent him a message.
After Song Hao took a look, he drove to the sea view villa.
He bought this before.
When the two of them wanted to be alone, they would go to this place to spend some time.
certainly.
Naturally, some artillery fire is inevitable during this period.
With the support of Song Hao, Ni Ni has become a first-line female artist.
And you can have more say when choosing new dramas.
at the same time.
Zhao Jinmai also came to Guoteng Media's company.
There happened to be no classes that day, so she came to the company and planned to have fun with Director Song.
When he learned that Director Song was going to attend the exchange meeting, he was ready to leave.
It happened that Song Hao had returned from the villa at this time.
He was a little surprised when he saw Zhao Jinmai: "Why did you, a girl, come to the company?"
Zhao Jinmai looked at Song Hao, a little embarrassed at first, and then said with a smile: "Let's see Director Song."
"What are you looking at me for?" Song Hao laughed for a moment, then he took Zhao Jinmai into the office and made tea for her.
Zhao Jinmai also laughed: "I'm not middle-aged, I don't want to drink tea."
"Then I'll drink. I'm middle-aged."
Song Hao smiled and picked up a cup of tea and drank it.
Zhao Jinmai watched him tilt his neck to drink tea.
In a sense, it is indeed handsome.
Then she asked deliberately: "Director Song, why do I feel that you have never been involved in scandals?"
Song Hao asked: "What scandal?"
"She's just my girlfriend."
"I just concentrate on my work, can't I?" Song Hao asked.
Zhao Jinmai nodded: "Indeed, men who work hard are the most handsome!"
After hearing this, Song Hao glanced at her again, and suddenly realized that the way she looked at him was very similar to the way Ni Ni and Liu Shuangshi looked at him.
Song Hao looked at the little girl in front of him and interrupted his thoughts.
After all, Zhao Jinmai is only 19 years old now, and he is already 29. There is a ten-year age difference between them.
If she were now 24 years old, Song Hao would let it develop naturally.
As for now, he thinks it's better to let this little girl give up her thoughts.
Then he said: "Okay, you walk around, I have to work."
After saying that, he came to the desk and sat down.
Zhao Jinmai hesitated for a moment, then walked up behind him cheerfully, squeezed his shoulders with his little hands and said, "Let me squeeze your shoulders."
Song Hao originally wanted to refuse, but looked at her innocent eyes.
Finally he relented.
"Okay, just say it when you're tired."
"good!"
As the box office of "The Wandering Earth" and "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" continue to rise.
Therefore, Song Hao decided to extend the key.
Try to make these two movies exceed 5 billion.
And "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" was also released in Sakura Country.
The final result is fixed at 8.2 billion yen!
Ranked 19th in Sakura Country box office history.
Obviously this is a very good result.
This has also made many viewers in Sakura Country look forward to Song Hao's next animated film.
"The Wandering Earth" has also ended its screening in North America.
The final North American box office was US$32.91 million.
The cumulative global box office is 41.24 million US dollars.
It can be said to be a very successful commercial science fiction masterpiece.
For a time, many well-known global film companies planned to invite Song Hao to make movies.
Hollywood in North America even extended an invitation.
They made a very attractive offer to Song Hao.
After Chen Daoming, president of the China Film Association, and others learned of this incident.
They were a little worried that Song Hao would go to Hollywood to develop his career.
Although people go to higher places, this sentence is correct.
But now that China Film and Television is developing, it needs benchmark fresh blood like Song Hao.
If Song Hao leaves, perhaps other directors will lose their competitiveness, and then they will have the same bad style and attitude as before.
Therefore, President Chen Daoming immediately dialed Song Hao's phone number.
"Xiao Song, I heard that Hollywood invited you to make a movie, right?" President Chen asked.
Song Hao replied: "Yes, President Chen."
Song Hao was not surprised at all that Chen Daoming knew about this.
After all, China Film and Television only has a small circle.
President Chen Daoming continued to ask: "What are your intentions?"
Song Hao explained: "I think I am from China. Now China's film technology is no worse than Hollywood. I don't have to travel far away to make movies. Moreover, the resources I want here may not be comparable there." superior."
"Yes, that's right." Chairman Chen Daoming was very happy after hearing this: "In China, I can help you with any movie you want to make, and I can also negotiate with you about the actors you want. You can also star in your movies for zero pay, which is unmatched abroad. I hope you can make more high-quality movies in China, and it won’t be too late to go to Hollywood."
"Understood, President Chen."
Song Hao's answer also made the China Film Association breathe a sigh of relief.
On the Hollywood side, Song Hao also declined politely.
Hollywood took a look and realized that since it couldn't find such a director, it would have to curb its development when the time comes.
Otherwise, in a year or two, when it comes to movie masterpieces, perhaps the first thing people think of is Song Hao from China, rather than Hollywood in North America.
Just when Song Hao was about to take a break, the Dragon Bureau of the Anti-Narcotics Bureau called his phone again.
"Hey, Dragon Bureau."
"Good boy, you are really getting better and better."
Long Ju said cheerfully on the other end of the phone: "Before, when you made "Operation Mekong" and took over 2 billion in box office, I already thought you were a genius. But now I didn't expect you to have a box office of 5 billion in one movie." .”
Song Hao smiled and said: "Not yet, those two movies are still a little bit behind."
"Is there any difference? Isn't it just a difference of two to three hundred million." Long Ju laughed and scolded, and then he said: "By the way, are you free now? Superintendent Wang of the police station said that he really wants to see you. He said before You’ve told me about it several times.”
"Okay, I'll go there now."
Song Hao naturally said nothing and immediately asked the driver to drive him to the anti-drug bureau.
As soon as he opened the door, he heard laughter.
I saw Long Ju saying in the office: "Don't worry, this guy will definitely help you complete it."
Then he raised his head and looked at Song Hao: "Boy, you are finally here."
Song Hao first looked at Long Ju and greeted him respectfully: "Long Ju, long time no see."
"You have the nerve to say that you are so busy making movies every day that you don't take the time to come over to the bureau. Don't forget that you are the anti-drug propaganda ambassador." Long Ju complained.
Then he introduced the middle-aged man next to him and said, "This is Superintendent Wang from the General Police Station."
"Hello, Superintendent Wang," Song Hao said immediately.
Superintendent Wang became happy: "Oh, he turns out to be such a young and handsome guy. Come on, come on. Sit down."
Long Ju joked from the side: "Basically, the people who come to my place will say something like, oh, he is so young every time they see this kid."
"I'm thinking that directors don't necessarily all have to be middle-aged men."
Superintendent Wang explained: "The main reason is that I didn't expect that the person who made so many classic movies was still a young guy. I can only say that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead."
Song Hao said humbly: "Superintendent Wang thanks you."
Bureau Long then asked, "By the way, Superintendent Wang is looking for you this time, and he also wants to ask you for something."
Hearing this, Song Hao asked: "I wonder what Superintendent Wang needs me to do?"
Superintendent Wang said: "I want you to make a film about the police. Of course, it doesn't have to be about the police arresting people. It can be about other types. I am here this time to represent the police departments across the country."
Asking for a monthly ticket!
