Xu Shi and his family had no psychological pressure at all when they should eat and when they should sleep.

Even the next day, Xu Shi didn't have time to watch the first-day box office, but went directly to the airport to receive visitors.

"Xu, I miss you so much." William came up and gave Xu Shi a big hug. Although Xu Shi was a little uncomfortable, he still hugged him very enthusiastically.

"Welcome, let's go, I have already set up a welcome banquet, please." Xu Shi said with a smile.

Xu Shi didn't expect William to come so early. According to the agreed time, it would not be too late for him to come two months later.

"Congratulations." William held his fists at Xu Shi as soon as he got into the car and congratulated him, he still used Chinese.

"Thank you." Xu Shi of course knew what he was congratulating.

The box office explosion last night. Although Xu Shi didn’t know the specific data, he also knew that it would definitely exceed many people’s imagination.

William obviously knew the news.

"William, why did you come here so early? Is there anything wrong?" Xu Shi asked.

He thought it was something unexpected about his cooperation with William.

William smiled and said, "It's true that something is, but it's a good thing."

"Our company will increase our investment in this cooperation after discussions by the board of directors yesterday afternoon," said William.

Yesterday, when "Dark Journey to the West" was released, it was daytime in the United States, so they had every time to discuss it.

After the discussion, William came on a plane and rushed over.

When Xu Shiyi heard this, he immediately understood that he was afraid that he would turn to someone else's arms.

"Of course, we will discuss the specific details later, so there is no rush." ​​Xu Shi is not in a hurry now, there is still time.

William was actually not in a hurry, because the specific conditions for the company have not yet come out.

They need to wait until the overseas box office of "Dark Journey to the West" comes out, especially the box office in Europe and the United States.

This time, for some reasons, "Dark Journey to the West" was released overseas three days later than in China.

In fact, Xu Shi is also waiting for the overseas box office to be released.

Once the overseas box office also has good revenue, he will take the initiative in the negotiations next, and may be able to directly gain the dominance of their cooperative movies.

This is what Xu Shi wants most. Although he knows that the possibility is not high, he still needs to give it a try.

Moreover, Xu Shi still has some confidence in overseas box office.

It’s not because of anything else, but because China is becoming increasingly powerful now, its influence in the world is increasing day by day.

Especially the miraculous changes in China over the past 40 years have made many foreigners feel strongly curious about this mysterious and ancient Eastern civilization.

Although "Dark Journey to the West" is adapted from Chinese mythology and not taken completely, it still has a strong attraction to many people.

What’s more important is that in recent years, more and more people have immigrated overseas in China, and Chinese people have been spread all over the world.

Except for those who are yellow and white-hearted, Xu Shi believes that the rest of the Chinese are also quite interested in this movie adapted from ancient Chinese mythology.

These are Xu Shi’s confidence.

............

This time, Xu Shi asked Zhang Kui to accompany him. After all, Zhang Kui and William had a good relationship before, as if they were in a similar scent and could find common topics.

Sure enough, Xu Shi found the right person to find Zhang Kui. Xu Shi didn't need Xu Shi to entertain William, so he took on the job of directly serving Zhang Kui.

Not to mention, the two of them had a good time having fun.

William came here so early this time just to stabilize Xu Shi and deepen the relationship between the double rebellion, and was not particularly anxious for negotiations.

In this way, William spent three days happily accompanied by Zhang Kui, and only stopped when the movie was officially released overseas on the fourth day.

William is not only paying attention to the overseas release, but also caring about the box office in China.

When he learned about the box office of "Dark Journey to the West" for three days, he was shocked!

"Dark Journey to the West" China's three-day box office was 1.83 billion!

It only took three days to break one billion, and it was close to the 2 billion mark, which was simply unbelievable.

Even if it is converted into US dollars, it is 260 million, or nearly 270 million. Such a box office is placed in the United States, and those blockbusters are also very good results.

In the past three days, many people have actually become a little numb to the box office. When the box office on the first day was released, everyone was shocked.

Although the previous pre-sale box office has explained some problems, the final result still shocked them.

But the next day, they looked at the box office that was still growing wildly, and the third day did not weaken at all, so they gradually became numb.

At the same time, they also knew that Xu Shi succeeded again this time.

It did not encounter a Waterloo as some media predicted before! Instead, it still made rapid progress and broke the historical record again.

Now some ambitious young directors are a little discouraged when they look at the records created by Xu Shi.

Can such a record be broken through so simply?

............

On the fifth day, the box office in China seemed to have no limit. As more and more people watched it, reputation and various spontaneous publicity also fermented, resulting in more and more people preparing to buy tickets to watch movies.

At this moment, it seems that "Dark Journey to the West" has become one of the hottest topics nowadays. People who work are chatting in their spare time.

And at the same time, many fan fiction about "Dark Journey to the West" also came out and began to deeply explain the characters.

Many things were unexpected by Xu Shi, and all of them were supplemented by netizens themselves.

But it is obvious that such a hot topic was of great help to the box office of "Dark Journey to the West".

Originally, these were still within everyone's acceptance range, after all, "Dark Journey to the West" has shown extraordinary appearance from the beginning.

Coupled with the crazy box office growth a few days ago, industry insiders said they were already numb.

But the next thing was that they could no longer control themselves.

On the fifth day, the first-day overseas box office was also released.

What shocked everyone was that the overseas box office reached 100 million US dollars on the first day, which was just the first day.

And Europe and the United States alone contributed $50 million in box office.

A foreign mythical movie, and whether it is an actor or a director, is Chinese, is actually able to achieve such crazy results, which surprised many people.

When William learned the news, he smiled bitterly. He knew that the next negotiations would probably be bleeding.

He is not all playing these days, but in fact he spends most of his time collecting Xu Shi's situation.

Although William also knew something about Xu Shi, he did not get along with each other for a long time, and he was still abroad, so it was inevitable that he was a little unreal.

But the more he knew about Xu Shi's situation, the less he felt.

Although Xu Shi did not have any domineering reputation in the crew, no bullying happened.

But just Xu Shi's dictatorship on filming has already given William a headache.

As a director and an internationally renowned director, it is absolutely impossible to make him give up the dominance of the movie.

In the past, William was filming a movie as a director, and basically no one in the crew dared to say anything.

Even if you work with those big-name screenwriters, it is just a discussion.

Originally, when Xu Shiyi wanted to cooperate with William, William thought he could completely control the entire crew.

No matter how famous Xu Shi is, he cannot escape his control.

But the current situation shows that he can't seem to be able to do this.

Some of this is due to Xu Shi's fame and works, but most of the reasons are interests.

William believes that the company's senior executives do not have that strong control over the crew.

If this cooperation is led by Xu Shi, the box office in China will be guaranteed.

Just look at the box office of "Dark Journey to the West" these days and you will know how appealing Xu Shi is in China.

Under such interests, no matter what fame and attention are, they are like a bubble.

If William is just a supporter, he is not happy, but he is even more reluctant to let him withdraw from this cooperation.

He knew that if he could successfully cooperate with Xu Shi, it would be of great help to his future career.

Especially for the development of Asia's fame, there will definitely be countless Asian companies looking for cooperation.

These are what William is reluctant to give up.

It can be said that everything is because of interests.

Just when William was worried about how to talk to Xu Shi, Xu Shi was interviewed by CCTV.

After all, such a big thing can still attract so much attention from CCTV.

"Mr. Xu, did you think of such achievements when you invested in shooting this movie?" the reporter asked.

Xu Shi replied: "I said you don't believe me at all?"

"Forehead....."
