Hearing that there was a reward, the four girls became interested and their beautiful eyes all turned to Yang Hao.
"What reward do you want from me, husband?" Liu Shishi asked curiously, stroking her bulging belly with her right hand.
"After you give birth to the baby, I will reward you with another child, okay?" Yang Hao teased.
"No, no, give the reward to Mimi. She has already given birth to two children, so she shouldn't mind having a third one." After experiencing the hardship of pregnancy for ten months, Liu Shishi really didn't want to go through it a second time.
"I don't want it either. Once I get back in shape, I want to focus on my career."
The biggest reason for having a second child was that Liu Yifei gave birth to a son, which stimulated Da Mimi.
Now that she has a son, Da Mimi doesn't want to suffer again.
She is a successful career woman, how can she keep giving birth to children?
Seeing that Liu Shishi and Da Mimi were unwilling, Yang Hao turned his attention to Da Tiantian and Zhao Liying.
"No, I don't want it either." Zhao Liying shook her head.
This time she gave birth, she suffered a lot because of the malposition of the fetus, so she didn't want to try it a second time.
"Humph! Is giving birth to a child a reward for you or for us? You're just wishful thinking."
"Change rewards, change rewards!" Da Tiantian snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly.
"Yes, in exchange for rewards." Led by Da Tiantian, several girls agreed.
"Okay, okay, okay. Whoever guesses it right, I will fulfill any of your wishes." Under the urging of the four girls, Yang Hao could no longer bear it and had to change the reward.
"The popularity of the IP "Zhu Xian" is much greater than that of "The Buddha is the Tao". The box office of the last midnight show of "Zhu Xian" was only 60 million, so I'll guess 60 million this time." Da Mimi said first.
"Since Mimi guessed 60 million, then I'll guess 70 million." Liu Shishi spoke second.
"Hehe, I believe my husband is the best. Guess one hundred million." Da Tiantian gently stroked her lower abdomen and said with a sweet face.
"You guessed 6, 7, and 10, so I'll choose 8, which is a lucky number. I'll guess million." Zhao Liying was the last to speak.
"Buy it and leave it. I'll write down the box office guesses of the four wives. We'll use the box office data at 12:15 as the standard."
The girls had no objection to taking Maoyan's real-time box office data at 12:15 as the standard.
Although there may be some viewers who buy tickets to enter the cinema after 12:15, they are a minority after all.
Therefore, the box office data at this time can represent the midnight box office.
-
Time passed as they joked around, and soon it was 12 o'clock.
Several people's attention was attracted by Maoyan's real-time box office figures.
1000, 2000, 5000 million...
The box office figures for the midnight show continued to rise and soon exceeded 100 million.
But after breaking through 100 million, the numbers started to jump noticeably slower.
Yang Hao knew clearly that the box office of the midnight show should have reached 100 million, and the next sharp increase in box office would be the second screening two hours later.
There are many movies that cannot exceed 100 million yuan at the box office in an entire thirty-day period, but "Warcraft" was released for only a few minutes and the box office exceeded 100 million yuan at the midnight show.
It can only be described as terrifying.
"Tiantian, you guessed it right. What reward do you want?" Yang Hao walked up to Tiantian, stretched out his right hand to her pregnant belly, and gently stroked it.
"Um~ I haven't thought about it yet. Can I save this wish for later?" Da Tiantian frowned slightly and thought for a long time, but still didn't know what wish to make. In the end, she chose to save it for later.
"Okay, then whenever you want to make this wish, just come to me."
The world is big, but the mother of the child is the most important. Yang Hao is particularly doting on Da Tiantian, a pregnant woman who is about to give birth.
-
"Husband, your box office appeal is too strong now, isn't it?"
When she saw clearly that the box office of "War of the Liches" at the midnight show reached 100 million, Da Mimi couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
As we all know, it is impossible for ordinary fans to wait for the midnight show and go to the cinema to watch a movie.
Those movies with high box office in the midnight show are all sequels of big IPs. For a movie like "Warcraft" which has no bonus from the previous work, it is a miracle that the box office of the midnight show can exceed 100 million.
All I can say is that Yang Hao’s appeal is too strong and he has too many true fans.
The midnight show box office is 40 million, and movie tickets are calculated at 250, which means that Yang Hao now has million loyal fans.
The number 250 million may not seem high, but you have to know that these are fans who are willing to spend money on celebrities.
Even though many celebrities now have over 100 million fans across all platforms, the number of fans who are actually willing to spend the money for a movie ticket for them is less than a few hundred thousand.
If in this time and space, without my intervention, Liu Yifei and Da Mimi would be the kind of stars who have over 100 million fans online, but few of them would pay for their movies.
"Honey, the box office of the midnight show exceeded 100 million. This should break the record in Chinese film history, right?" Da Mimi continued to ask.
"Yeah!" Yang Hao nodded in response.
So far, there has not been a movie in China whose box office exceeded 100 million yuan during the midnight screening.
However, this midnight box office record could not be maintained for long.
If nothing unexpected happens, it will end with "Avengers 2019: End Game" in 4.
The super IP "Avengers 4" is really terrifying. It has earned 27.97 billion US dollars in box office worldwide, ranking second in the global box office history list, only tens of millions of dollars less than "Avatar".

"Ouch! It hurts! Husband, I think I'm about to give birth."
Just when everyone was excited about the box office of the midnight show of "War of the Liches", Liu Shishi suddenly covered her stomach and cried out in pain.
Upon hearing the sound, Yang Hao immediately walked up to Liu Shishi, only to see a pool of water flowing from Liu Shishi's lower body.
"Shishi, don't be afraid, it's just your water breaking." Yang Hao quickly comforted her.
All I can say is that people have different physiques. Da Mimi's water broke, and she seemed to be fine. She was eating and drinking as usual.
But Liu Shishi's water broke, and she had unbearable abdominal pain.
After hearing Yang Hao say that it was just the amniotic fluid that broke, Liu Shishi's panicked expression calmed down a little.
Yang Hao reached out and picked up Liu Shishi from her knees, placed her on the hospital bed, and then pressed the emergency button on the bedside.
……
-
When Da Mimi's water broke, her cervix was three fingers dilated a few hours later, and she was pushed into the delivery room.
Liu Shishi's cervix dilated very slowly. It took eleven hours from the time her amniotic fluid broke to the time her cervix dilated to three fingers.
After entering the delivery room, it took several more hours until five in the afternoon when Yang Hao heard the sound of the baby being born.
"Huh~" Seeing the door of the delivery room open and Liu Shishi was safe and sound, Yang Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Pale face, messy hair, and chapped lips.
Seeing Liu Shishi’s weak appearance, Yang Hao felt distressed.
Yang Hao walked to the bedside and held hands with Liu Shishi: "Shishi, don't be afraid, your husband is here."
Liu Shishi probably heard Yang Hao's voice, then she opened her eyes and said weakly: "Husband, I gave birth to your baby successfully." "Well, have a good rest, I will always be by your side." Hearing the first words Liu Shishi said after opening her eyes, Yang Hao felt inexplicably moved.
At this moment, Yang Hao suddenly felt that something was very correct.
"When a woman falls in love with you, she will be willing to bear your child."
-
Yang Hao, Da Mimi, Zhao Liying and others followed the cart to the intensive care unit.
"Yang Hao, you haven't had a rest since last night. Go and have a rest first. Liying and I are here to guard you." Da Mimi suddenly said.
"Ah? Yang Hao, you haven't slept since last night?"
"Then go and rest quickly."
After learning from Da Mimi that Yang Hao had not rested since midnight last night until five in the afternoon, Liu Shishi felt sweet and touched.
But at the same time, he felt sorry for Yang Hao, so he urged Yang Hao to rest quickly.
"Okay, I'll just take a nap on the bed next to you. Call me if you need anything." Yang Hao did not refuse the girls' kindness.
Yang Hao had been very tense before, so he didn't feel sleepy.
But now that Liu Shishi was safe and sound, Yang Hao relaxed and felt physically tired, and he couldn't help but yawn several times.
Yang Hao slept soundly and didn't wake up until midnight.
But the outside world almost broke out in a big quarrel because they couldn't contact Yang Hao.
-
Today, "Warcraft" had a huge box office success, with the midnight show box office exceeding 1 million and the first day box office exceeding 10 billion. Now the entire network is discussing "Warcraft".
The success of "War of the Liches" indicates that after Haori Film and Television Culture Media goes public, its valuation will reach a terrifying number.
Yu Li owns two million shares, so if the company’s market value is high, she might be able to earn a small profit.
With such a huge fortune at her fingertips, Yu Li should be excited, but at this moment she was sitting in the office, lacking interest.
All this happened just because Yang Hao was missing and his cell phone couldn’t be reached.
Car accident? Kidnapping? Natural disaster?
Yu Li thought of many scenes that only appeared in movies and TV dramas.
Yang Hao is the pillar of Haori Film and Television Culture Media. Even though the situation is very good now, if something unexpected happens to Yang Hao, I am afraid the company will never be able to go public.
Yu Li didn't want the stocks in her hands to become worthless pieces of paper. She was extremely anxious at the moment and would call Yang Hao's cell phone every 5 minutes, hoping that the call would go through.
By the way, my boss has a close relationship with Da Mimi, Liu Yifei, Liu Shishi and other women. Maybe they know where the boss is?
Yu Li knew that Da Mimi had the closest relationship with Yang Hao, so she made the first call to Da Mimi.
Soon Da Mimi's phone was connected.
"Mimi, I can't get through to the boss's cell phone. Do you know where he is?" Yu Li got straight to the point without any nonsense.
Hearing Yu Li's question, Da Mimi turned her head and saw Yang Hao who was in a deep sleep. Thinking that Yang Hao had not slept since last night, Da Mimi did not intend to wake him up.
So he said, "Yang Hao, I was too tired last night and I'm sleeping now. My phone must be out of battery. I'll ask him to call you back later."
"Huh~" Hearing that Yang Hao just fell asleep and his phone was out of battery, Yu Li finally put her worries aside.
-
At 12 o'clock, Yang Hao woke up slowly.
Getting up from the bed, Yang Hao felt relieved when he saw Liu Shishi sleeping soundly with even breathing.
"Oh no!" Yang Hao suddenly remembered that "Lich Wars" had already been released for a day.
This is the busiest time of the day, as I need to communicate with China Film and Miramax on many things.
If I disappear for a day, Ci Peikang, Cynthia, and Yu Li will probably bombard my phone with calls, right?
Yang Hao quickly found his cell phone, only to discover that it was out of battery and turned off.
I quickly found the charging cable to charge the phone, and one minute later, the phone turned on.
What caught my eye were hundreds of missed calls and text messages.
Some people, such as Yu Li, Cynthia, and Ci Peikang, called to congratulate him, and some celebrities in the circle also called to congratulate him.
-
After Yang Hao charged his phone, he walked out of the ward and went to a remote corner to call back the missed calls.
When Yang Hao couldn't get through to some of the calls, he would reply via text messages.
It took more than an hour to process all of this.
Only at this time did Yang Hao have time to check the first-day box office data of "War of the Liches".
The box office for the midnight show was 1.07 million yuan, and the box office on the first day was as high as 10.08 billion yuan.
With 64.2% of the screenings, it took 83.7% of the total box office.
"Very good!" After seeing the data, Yang Hao was very satisfied.
High ticket sales, high box office, high market share, high midnight box office, especially the first day box office exceeding 1 billion, which made Yang Hao very satisfied.
In the past, the first movie to break the 3 billion box office on the first day was "Detective Chinatown " which was released during the Spring Festival.
And in this life, this record was taken by himself. Thinking of this, Yang Hao was extremely happy.
Afterwards, Yang Hao logged into Weibo, Douyin and major portals to check out the news about "Lich War" on these social platforms.
"Shocking! The first-day box office of "War of the Liches" exceeded 1 billion, setting a new first-day box office record in China."
"The box office of the midnight show of "War of the Demons and the Demons" exceeded 100 million, breaking the box office record of the midnight show of "Zhu Xian" last year."
"The most beautiful woman in the world, Da Tiantian's Chang'e is so beautiful. No wonder Hou Yi went to heaven in anger for Chang'e?"
"War of the Liches was both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, and Yang Hao achieved a double harvest of box office success and word of mouth."
……
There are too many interested parties in the movie "War of the Liches", including China Film, Wanda, CITIC, Goldman Sachs and other capitals, and they have been coerced by Yang Hao.
Not to mention that this movie is well made, even if it is average, with the help of these capitals, the box office and word of mouth will definitely not be bad in the early stage of the movie's release.
From the unanimous praise from these media and big Vs, it can be seen that the power of these capitals is really too strong.
-
In order to obtain the most authentic word-of-mouth feedback, Yang Hao had to click on the comment section and find the real feedback from the comment section.
"The war between wizards and liches, Chang'e flying to the moon, Houyi shooting down the sun, and Hou Tu's reincarnation, these four seemingly unrelated mythological stories are perfectly combined in one movie. Thanks to Director Yang for bringing us this wonderful journey to the wilderness."
"After watching the movie "War of the Demons and the Demons", I became interested in the novel "The Buddha is the Tao". I spent 13 hours to read it roughly. I just want to say that the novel is even more interesting than the movie."
"Brother Hao said earlier that he wanted to make 'The Buddha is the Tao' into a movie. At that time, I was wondering how such a grand scene could be produced with the current film industry. But after watching the movie, I want to say that Brother Hao, I am convinced."
……
Yang Hao knew that comments could be manipulated, so he focused on long comments that were well-reasoned and well-founded.
When he saw that the long reviews were mostly positive, Yang Hao finally felt relieved.
Yang Hao understood that this movie should be a sure success at the box office in China. (End of this chapter)
