Especially Korean universities, middle schools and even primary schools will all be on holiday before the end of this month. "Korean Idol", which was originally aimed at young people, instantly attracted countless men and women who yearn for the entertainment industry.
Everyone logged into the official website of CGV to download the registration form, or directly cut the newspaper form in the newspaper and filled it out and sent it to the CGV. In just a few days, the number of applicants in South Korea exceeded 10,000. With the latest registration number of 15,827 people announced by the Korean Ilbo over the weekend, it instantly caused a sensation in South Korea. A large-scale talent show with tens of thousands of people was happening around every Korean without knowing it.
The surging trend of CGV's wealth and power suddenly scared many entertainment companies, whether it is S.M, DSP, YG, etc. Even CGV's former boss, CJ Group, was shocked by Zheng Rongxuan's big gesture. After the acquisition, it directly invested $1 billion, which was nearly twice the total value of CGV, making CGV Group jump into the top 100 large enterprise group in South Korea.
Similarly, major groups are also watching CGV's large-scale talent show, especially the publicity departments of major groups. They all believe that this form has set a precedent for talent shows in the world. There are many entertainment companies in South Korea, but no one has ever thought of this idea before. There is undoubtedly the brand-new CGV group not only has strong financial advantages, but also has richer planning strength.
Another Monday, the traditional Dragon Boat Festival in China on the 25th, is also the traditional Gangneung Dragon Boat Festival in South Korea (the two countries are completely different, and Koreans don’t know what zongzi is, please visit Baidu for details). Major media and entertainment sections continue to report on the trend of "My Savage Girlfriend".
"My Savage Girlfriend" continued to lead the box office. In the second week of its release, the Hollywood blockbuster "Pearl Harbor", which dominated the Korean film market since its release on June 1, was defeated. It won the box office championship of the Korean film market with 1.8852 million viewers, with a total of 2.9 million viewers. During the same period, there were almost no local rivals.
In addition to South Korea, it also received a good box office in Japan. Perhaps because Pearl Harbor itself describes the historical incident of Japan's invasion of the United States, it made the Japanese somewhat disgusted. "My Savage Girlfriend" with love as the theme made them feel refreshed. Therefore, in Japan, due to the influence of Zheng Rongxuan, the screenwriter and the reputation of the audience on the first weekend, it quickly rose to the Japanese box office championship in the second week, and also surpassed Pearl Harbor, although it only won with a slight result.
On the 20th, "My Savage Girlfriend" was officially logged into major theaters in the Chinese inland market. Unlike the original history, because of the emergence of Zheng Rongxuan's bug, CGV actively contacted publishers in many Asian countries and regions from the beginning, and created a 6.15-year-old Asian simultaneous release. China's inland region review, theater negotiations, dubbing and other series of things have been busy, and it was released one year earlier than before. In this way, the huge harm of piracy can be greatly eliminated, although piracy is impossible to prevent.
But being able to come out one day late will make a greater contribution to the box office, especially Zheng Rongxuan is not an unknown person in mainland China. The novel "The Rules of Pre-Love" should not be too popular, not to mention that "My Savage Girl" was also published in the mainland last year. Zheng Rongxuan's influence is still somewhat. In addition, the summer vacation has just begun and "Pearl Harbor" has not yet entered the mainland. It can be said that "My Savage Girl" has almost no big competitors throughout the entire period.
As a result, in the second week, "My Savage Girlfriend" won an exciting box office of US$30.98 million in Asia, and South Korea and Japan alone contributed more than two-thirds of the box office, with a cumulative box office of 48.78 million in 10 days of release.
This number completely shocked the Korean people. There were people who heard that this movie had no deep meaning except for laughing so hard that it hurts. But when you see this box office result, it seems that you can't communicate with others if you don't go and see it. Audiences all over Asia are chasing this movie, and you must not leave it alone.
Especially as this week began, Korean middle schools and universities were on holidays, and soon the people discovered that the attendance rate, which was not very high during working hours, suddenly there was a trend of crowding every scene. Countless high school students and college students bought tickets in groups and walked into the cinema.
Whether it is SBS' Monday, Tuesday's "Women's World" or Wednesday, Thursday's "Love Hotel" has exceeded 50% ratings, plus the popular "My Savage Girlfriend" and "Korean Idol" with more than 50,000 registrations, the CGV Group's popularity is the most popular, and major media are also rushing to report various entertainment news about CGV's.
Under such circumstances, the talent reserves of various CGV departments are basically in place, especially the behind-the-scenes teams in various sections such as photography, lighting, props, venues, planning, publicity, and public relations. They have initially met the scale of being able to start shooting two or three movies and several TV series at the same time.
However, Zheng Rongxuan, the director of CGV and the boss, still did not show up. Even after the holiday, almost all stayed at home to write, or occasionally went to Wake Villa to date Kim Tae-hee. On the contrary, Song Yuner and Zheng Rongxuan never had time to have fun with him again. With the popularity of the TV series, Song Yuner's boyfriend outside the circle ran over without knowing what he thought.
"Yongxuan, will I stick to you too much like this?" After another reunion, Kim Tae-hee's body was weak and soft beside Jung Rongxuan, her eyes were affectionately looking at the man two years younger than her and said.
Zheng Rongxuan gently stroked the plump face on her chest with one palm and said with a smile: "No, if I weren't afraid of disturbing your filming, I would like to be with you every day! After this drama is over, should I rest for a while?"
"I'm afraid it's very difficult, there are still a lot of itineraries waiting for you." Kim Tae-hee enjoyed this happy moment that seemed to be a night of popularity, with a happier expression on her face.
