Chapter 688 Creating a Miracle, Astounding Box Office! Spirited Away Reaches the Top!
If "Bunny Drop" is like Dongfeng Express, making its peers tremble in its shadow.

So, Spirited Away was like a little boy who completely blew up the entire entertainment industry!!

The box office reached 1.2 million yen on its opening day!
The next day... 3 million!
Day three... 5 million!
The box office reached 9.2 million yuan in just the first three days of the weekend, just one step away from 10 billion yuan!
It was a game-winning start!
The box office figures continued to rise day by day, showing no signs of decline and instead increasing exponentially.

This bizarre and unbelievable box office trend stunned countless people.

If it were Takeshi Onino, the box office would still be astonishing, but they could barely accept it, since that man has already created countless miracles.

But this miracle was created by an animated film and an animation director who was only "somewhat famous," and the Japanese entertainment industry was suddenly shaken as if by a magnitude 10 earthquake.

Everyone was stunned.

The miracle of "Spirited Away" continues to unfold, like a runaway black horse, leaving everyone else in the dust.

Half a month later, the box office had reached 50 billion.

Twenty days later, the box office reached 80 billion, and it was just around the corner from "Bunny Drop"!

One day later, the box office reached 86 billion, officially surpassing "Bunny Drop"!
When Spirited Away surpassed Rabbit Drop at the box office, the entire entertainment industry and even the whole of Japan fell into a stunned silence.

Oni Takeshi... he actually got surpassed?!
This is unprecedented!
And this is far from the end.

A month later, the box office successfully surpassed 10 billion.

It became the first domestic animated film to surpass 10 billion yuan in box office revenue.

Meanwhile, Spirited Away officially premiered in 14 countries and regions across Asia, and without exception, it broke local box office records for animated films in each of them!

In just one and a half months, it surpassed 180 billion yuan. Continuing its run in Europe and America, its box office performance remains impressive!

Two months later, it surpassed 150 billion! Its cumulative global box office exceeded 3 million US dollars, shocking the world!

Seeing the ever-increasing and increasingly outrageous box office figures, not only the entertainment industry but also countless members of the public were dumbfounded.

Spirited Away is about to ascend to heaven!
No one could have predicted beforehand that this animated film would achieve such astonishing and even shocking results!

Even more astonishing is that not only did its box office numbers skyrocket, but its reputation was also ridiculously good.

Almost every viewer who has seen it has praised it highly.

Film critics have collectively sung its praises.

This film is analyzed and commented on from various angles, and then these arguments are used to elevate "Spirited Away" to the throne of "King of Animation".

And Spirited Away truly deserves its reputation!
For a time, news and trending topics about "Spirited Away" were everywhere, and people talked about the movie during their leisure time.

Chihiro, Yubaba, No-Face, Haku... every character in the film has become a highly anticipated "star".

It has a similar feel to the later "Ne Zha 2" which swept the nation.

The media naturally wouldn't let such good news pass by. While reporting on the movie, many people also tried their best to interview Takeshi Ono.

What these busybodies most wanted to ask him was, of course, how he felt about his film being surpassed.

But they were going to be disappointed. Oni no Takeshi was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, he was very happy.

Due to its subject matter, "Bunny Drop" has a limited box office potential and is destined to be incomparable to "Spirited Away".

Moreover, the former's performance had already met Ono Takeshi's expectations, so he naturally had no disappointment.

Spirited Away, on the other hand, was a completely expected surprise.

As for the rumors circulating outside about being "surpassed," Ono Takeshi didn't take them to heart at all.

They're just saying it's sour grapes because they can't have it.

The higher the box office of "Spirited Away", the happier he is, because all of that money belongs to him!
Every day, as he looked at the box office reports, Ono Takeshi's smile never faded.

In fact, although there have been some criticisms of Takeshi Ono, most people in the entertainment industry and rational members of the public have not been affected by this in their hearts.

the reason is simple.

First, the excellence of "Bunny Drop" is undeniable and should not be dismissed simply because of its poor box office performance.

Secondly, high box office returns for animated films are a Japanese tradition, but Takeshi Ono is an exception, repeatedly breaking box office records with live-action films.

If it weren't for him, the top ten highest-grossing films in Japanese film history would have long been dominated by animated movies, just like in the previous life.

Third, this only reflects domestic box office revenue in Japan. If global box office figures are included, Takeshi Onino has more than one film that has surpassed $1 billion, still far ahead of the competition. Compared to that, this figure is insignificant. Finally, and most importantly—

Spirited Away... Damn, it's also a movie by Oni no Eiga!
So what if the box office is high? All the money made belongs to Takeshi Ono!

The fame is his, the profits are his, Ono Takeshi is the biggest winner!

How could this possibly shake his position?

Therefore, although "Spirited Away" surpassed Takeshi Ono's films at the Japanese box office and successfully topped the charts, in people's minds, Takeshi Ono is still the most awesome director!
Compared to the shock and silence from the outside world, the staff at Guiye Pictures were naturally overjoyed.

As expected, our own movies are the best!

Ono Takeshi naturally wouldn't just stand by and watch. He increased the publicity efforts while also getting a key to extend the screening.

As a result, Spirited Away was shown for a full three months.

It dominated the box office for three whole months with its overwhelming power, causing countless other films released at the same time to cry out in despair and lament their bad luck.

Three months later, Spirited Away finally left theaters under the complex gazes of countless people.

And its final box office was...

357 billion yen!!

The film grossed a staggering $4.7 million worldwide!
Each one is a terrifying and alarming number!
The moment the box office figures were released, countless people were once again shocked, almost unable to believe their eyes.

Japan's first film to surpass 300 billion yen has been born!
This is unprecedented!

From directors to actors, everyone in the entertainment industry looked at each other, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.

Ultimately, it can only be expressed in two words:
Cow batch!

And such an amazing movie is still produced by Oni no Eiga. As expected, Oni no Takeshi is the best!
After the initial shock, the media reporters once again scrambled to interview Takeshi Onino.

"What are your thoughts on the birth of the first film to break the 300 billion yuan box office mark?"

"What are your thoughts on the fact that the first film to gross 300 billion yuan was not directed by you?"

"Director Onino, please speak..."

When asked provocative questions, Ono Takeshi simply replied, "Excuse me, I'm rushing to the celebration party for 'Spirited Away.' By the way, it's an internal banquet, no interviews please."

A group of reporters: ...

It was only then that they remembered that "Spirited Away" was a film produced by Oni-no-Film.

So what if he didn't film it himself? For Takeshi Ono, it's a huge profit no matter what!
A group of reporters: Those despicable capitalists!

Ono Takeshi was too lazy to bother with these guys who loved to watch the drama unfold.

He was extremely satisfied with the success of "Spirited Away".

Although its box office in its previous life also exceeded 300 billion, it was not this high.

In this life, under the management of Oni no Eiga, both domestic and global box office revenue were successfully boosted to new heights.

This demonstrates the current influence of Oni-no-Film.

Therefore, Takeshi Ono doesn't care if his box office is surpassed. After all, the profits are all in his own hands, so what's there to care about?
Moreover, he still leads the global box office by a wide margin.

……

At the celebration banquet, everyone was all smiles, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Apart from Takeshi Ono, no one could have imagined that Spirited Away would achieve such amazing success, including Hayao Miyazaki.

Therefore, when the banquet began, Hayao Miyazaki was the first to approach Takeshi Ono with a glass of wine in hand, his face showing undisguised gratitude. He sincerely said, "Boss, I'd like to propose a toast to you to thank you for your support!"

Even with unprecedented box office success, Miyazaki Hayao was not blinded by it and maintained a respectful and humble attitude, especially when facing Takeshi Ono.

He knew perfectly well who had brought him success.

Moreover, Hayao Miyazaki is truly grateful to Takeshi Ono, whose unwavering support made his films so successful.

Seeing the sincerity in Miyazaki's expression, Takeshi Ono smiled and clinked glasses with him.
