$17 million
This box office revenue is not particularly high.
After all, it’s the total box office from so many countries around the world.
But dostically, it’s unbelievably high.
At this ti.
The Tang family mbers were all waiting on the side for Tang to reveal the answer.
Seeing Tang Qing hang up the call with Pu Chaodong, Father Tang asked anxiously, "Tangtang, is it out? How much is the total box office on the first day, is it $10 million?" Because Tang Qing had said it would be at least $10 million.
Looking at the expectant eyes of both the Tang and Lin families.
Tang Qing nodded with a smile, indicating that it had arrived.
Upon hearing this.
"That’s great, $10 million, $10 million," Father Tang exclaid excitedly as he stood up. $10 million, according to the exchange rate, that would be at least 80 million RMB. No, Father Tang thought of sothing else and quickly asked, "How much more than $10 million? You’re not being clear."
"$17 million," Tang Qing said. This ti, Father Tang was a bit stunned, trying to figure out how much that was in RMB.
"Ha ha, good, we’ve got a great start," Uncle Tang Kai exclaid joyfully. The other family mbers also beca excited, happy for Tang Qing. Lin Jiaxue’s grandparents were smiling at the thought of an unimaginable sum of money that Tang Qing had earned in a single day.
Their faces blood with joy.
The Tang Family.
Had truly risen.
"I wonder how much there’ll be tomorrow," Mother Tang said restlessly, a bit worried.
"There should be more, with such good data, the major theater circuits will consider increasing the number of screenings. This isn’t sothing we need to worry about. Alright, it’s getting late, you should all go back and rest. I still need to make a phone call," Tang Qing said.
"Alright."
They knew Tang Qing needed to notify a few shareholders.
Before leaving.
Tang Qing winked at Lin Jiaxue with his right eye, causing her to shiver with understanding, and she quickly walked out without anyone else noticing their little interaction.
Tang Qing returned to his room.
He took out his computer.
He opened up the Sky Eye conference system.
Those two were waiting eagerly for the data to be released, insisting that Tang Qing tell them, wanting the shareholders to know together. Now, they used the conference system as a regular chatting tool, which was much more convenient than Penguin’s video chat.
Clear, high-definition quality.
Lossless audio quality.
And an integrated chat system.

They found it incredibly convenient.
Chai Ren laughed heartily, "Little Tang, I just knew it, we’re going to make a big profit this ti."
"It’s still too early to say that. Let’s see how it fares after the weekly box office cos out," Tang Qing said modestly. The only way to avoid the pitfall of getting too excited is to prepare for the worst while doing your best.
"True, it’s exhilarating. Cheers—oh, Little Tang, where’s your drink?" Zheng Lin raised his wine glass only to notice Tang Qing didn’t have any wine.
"I’m drinking tea,"
Tang Qing rolled his eyes and took a sip of the clear tea.
After so more casual talk and everyone growing tired, they ended the communication. After taking a nice warm bath, Tang Qing, wrapped in a bath towel, stepped out onto the balcony. He flipped over it, suddenly realizing that the large bath towel could be perfectly used as a mattress.
...
The next morning.
Tang Qing’s mobile phone started receiving ssages nonstop, especially from the newly created Penguin group, which was bustling with activity. Several celebrities from the annual eting sent congratulatory ssages, and Tang Qing replied to each, starting a chat in the Penguin group.
As soon as he chid in.
Others gradually joined in the idle chat.
One could predict.
With Chai Ren and Zheng Lin, these two shareholders, along with that aweso special effects company, Tang Qing’s influence in the entertainnt circle was definitely going to be top-notch. They were involved in the industry, so they couldn’t ignore this rising big shot of the entertainnt circle.
And they felt fortunate to have t Tang Qing at the start of his rise.
Otherwise, getting to know soone after they beca famous wouldn’t carry the sa weight.
When these figures were released by the dia.
Cot Film Company instantly exploded in the Huaxia entertainnt circle, with a single-day total box office of $17 million. While Huaxia was still pursuing directors with a hundred million RMB box office, Cot Film achieved this amount on the first day.
Now.
"Civilization: Soul of the Stars" no longer needed the dia to sing its praises.
The ferntation of its reputation was the best attraction.
Audiences from various countries were drawn to the cinemas, imdiately becoming fans of the film, with many going for second, third, or even fourth viewings, especially of the 3D version, which was hyped up by those who had seen the 2D version.
Because of the ’chain of disdain,’ those who saw the 2D version beca eager.
Desperately seeking 3D theaters, tickets for 3D movies had beco exceedingly hard to co by, not just in Huaxia but also abroad where scalpers erged, specifically selling 3D tickets for a good profit since there were always fans who didn’t care about the cost.
In fact, this was anticipated by various cinemas.
Imdiately.
Their actions were very unified.
They increased the movie’s showtis.
With such box office data, other movies had nothing to say. Their box office was more than double that of the second-ranked one. What more could they say? The theater circuits needed to make money too, and even, the major theater circuits had already prepared to join forces to push this movie to a divine status.
They watched the 3D version of "Civilization: Soul of the Stars."
They felt this movie would beco the sledgehamr to open up the 3D cinema market and it also had the qualifications for them to heavily promote.
Although this would sowhat harm the interests of dostic film companies, after all, everyone was in it for the money. If your product wasn’t good enough, what was there to talk about? Besides, this could also urge you to create better works, couldn’t it?
Second-day box office, twenty-three million two hundred thousand dollars.
Third-day box office, twenty-seven million nine hundred thousand dollars.
Fourth-day box office, thirty-two million dollars.
...
As the number of movie showtis in theaters increased.
And with the existence of audiences re-watching.
The box office began to surge rapidly.
Finally.
On the fourth day.
The total box office broke one hundred million dollars, reaching one hundred and six million dollars.
This data made the world go crazy.
It made the Huaxia dia even crazier.
"Four days, a total global box office of over eight hundred million RMB, a miracle in Huaxia cinema history!"
"A single movie, heralding a new era for Huaxia film, the shock of eight hundred million RMB!"
"Soul of the Stars, the soul of Huaxia cinema! One hundred million dollars, just the beginning."
"Editor’s reminder: 3D is the true essence of this movie!"
"...."
...
Tang Qing, who had already returned from his grandparents, watched the news report leisurely, feeling pleased. At this ti, the shops of both the Tang Family and the Lin family had resud business after the holiday, and they went to the stores, leaving just the two of them at ho.
Even Lin Jiaxue’s grandparents had gone back to the village. The elderly couple said they were worried about leaving the house unattended, and there were so farm work to do, as well as poultry to feed, and duck eggs to collect.
So yesterday, Lin’s father sent the elderly couple back to the village.
The house suddenly beca quiet.
Tang Qing had his left arm around Lin Jiaxue.
Eating the lychees she peeled for him.
Occasionally engaging in so playful acts, life was blissful.
"Ding ding ding..."
Tang Qing’s phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Little Tang, good news," Zheng Lin’s excited voice ca through.
Tang Qing, puzzled, asked, "What good news?"
"Haha, tonight’s News Broadcast will feature our Cot Film Company’s movie in a report. Are you excited?" Zheng Lin had just received this news, and after confirmation, imdiately called to give the good news.
Broadcast on News Broadcast.
These days, it was an absolute honor for a company.
Because it was a ti slot that audiences nationwide had to watch, the influence was imnse.
It was also because "Civilization: Soul of the Stars" was too outstanding, breaking one hundred million dollars in four days, with its rising montum still very strong.
As for the final box office, that was unknown, given that, back in 2005, dostic films had a nationwide total box office of just over ten billion RMB, and foreign movies over twenty billion RMB.
Breaking one hundred million dollars in four days - what a concept.
It ant, barring any surprises,
The movie’s total box office would exceed last year’s dostic film market revenues.
If it couldn’t make it to News Broadcast, then few entertainnt stories could, so while the movie was almost exalted to the skies abroad, CCTV naturally couldn’t ignore it.
In the evening.
When News Broadcast aired this news,
"Civilization: Soul of the Stars" reached its peak in dostic promotion. However, it was also limited by the number of screens, and Huaxia’s cinemagoing habits, so the box office potential was inherently limited.
After all, there were so many screens, and the situation was still dominated by single-screen cinemas. At this ti, Huaxia had only about twelve hundred cinemas nationwide, with over two thousand seven hundred screens, averaging just over two screens per cinema.
Far from the fifty thousand-plus screens at the ti before his rebirth, a difference of more than tenfold.
Thus, the main point of box office growth was still abroad, especially in markets like the United States and Europe, which were far larger than the current Huaxia film market. Next, Tang Qing was ready to use this box office revenue to stake out his claim in Huaxia’s theater market, as Huaxia’s movie market was just starting.
If possible,
Breaking into the global theater market was also feasible.
