Starting from joining Tencent Video

Bai Lu and other main actors in "Better Days" need no further introduction.

The first day's performance and word-of-mouth already speak volumes, and there are also issues with its competitor, "Us and Them."

Leaving aside any awards, its box office success alone is enough to make it a representative work.

"This is the first time I've ever had such a high box office on the opening day."

Yi Yangqianxi said with surprise that he started transitioning from idol to actor last year.

When Lanco Entertainment extended an invitation, he accepted without hesitation.

the reason is simple!

At that time, the background of Lanco Entertainment had already been exposed, and "Better Days" was a good project that was obvious to the naked eye.

In fact, it has been proven that the public's judgment was correct; "Better Days" is indeed a good project.

It is extremely difficult for many top idols to star in a high-grossing movie.

For example, Yang Mi and Dilraba Dilmurat have starred in many movies, but their opening day box office has almost never been high.

He had a cameo role in a movie before, which did well at the box office, nearly a billion, but it didn't really have much to do with him.

In fact, apart from Bai Lu, the emotions of the others were similar to or even worse than those of Yi Yang Qianxi.

Although Tian Xiwei starred in "The Wandering Earth," the film has not yet been released.

How well it will perform at the box office and in terms of reviews remains to be seen!

Chen Keke needs no introduction, this is also her first film.

When you're excited, the roadshow feels a bit more relaxed. After all, the feeling of a roadshow with results and without results are two completely different things.

If the box office results are poor, the many lead actors will likely become increasingly insecure during the promotional tour.

With the three-day May Day holiday, the box office of "Better Days" surged to 7 million yuan.

Conversely, "Us and Them" only grossed 5 million yuan at the box office due to a collapse in publicity and word-of-mouth.

Compared to the original timeline, this directly resulted in a reduction of 2 million in box office revenue!

With competitors diverting a significant portion of the box office revenue, coupled with Chen Jingyuan's numerous underhanded tactics beforehand, the situation became even more dire.

Milk Tea Liu still harbors a lot of resentment towards Chen Jingyuan, and she is aware of the propaganda targeting her.

The issue of pre-sale ticket refunds has also triggered an official investigation, which is quite troublesome to handle.

However, Liu Naicha would not dare to retaliate against Chen Jingyuan.

Putting aside the fact that her film investments include a share from Tencent, she also doesn't dare to offend them too much.

After the controversy surrounding dual contracts, many people can see that Tencent is on the verge of becoming the industry leader.

The only problem is that there might be a lack of theaters, but it's hard to say whether Tencent will invest in them in the future.

Furthermore, if Liu Naicha (Liu Naicha) chooses to confront things head-on, she must have the ability to withstand the confrontation.

First of all, the publicity channels are simply not as good as ours, and it's uncertain how effective it would be to buy some press releases or negative information.

In addition, the movie "Us and Them" has already made a fortune.

The total cost was only tens of millions, which is less than the cost of "Better Days"!

As one of the investors, she has made a considerable profit, but it's a bit painful to think that she has to spend money to hire online trolls.

It seems quite possible that the movie "Us and Them" will reach 1 billion yuan.

As for "Better Days" surpassing one billion views, that's practically a done deal.

Both films were commercially successful, but in terms of influence, "Better Days" was far superior.

The success of "Better Days" has resulted in a surge in popularity for the actors.

First, let's talk about the male and female leads. Yi Yangqianxi has successfully transitioned from a top idol to an actor.

This step was crucial, proving their ability to carry box office revenue.

There's no need to worry about scripts anymore; many companies will definitely come knocking on our door.

The idol industry is too competitive, especially with each new generation of idols becoming increasingly fierce.

At this point, transitioning to acting is still a good option, at least it provides an extra layer of security.

As for Bai Lu, she was already a top-tier actress, and her popularity increased again thanks to "Better Days".

She can now be considered a top-tier actress, reaching the same level as Dilraba.

However, Bai Lu is far less popular with the general public and has a lower level of national recognition than Dilraba!

Some endorsement deals and luxury brands will definitely prioritize Dilraba.

But at least in terms of works, Bai Lu is still in an absolute lead, especially in terms of box office.

Besides, Tian Xiwei's popularity has increased the most.

Despite being only the second female lead, the contrast in her performance left a deep impression on many netizens.

While her popularity isn't enough to propel Tian Xiwei to the ranks of top-tier actresses, it's close enough.

It's worth noting that "So Cute Us" was still airing not long ago.

Once "The Wandering Earth" is released, it's entirely possible that Tian Xiwei will instantly become a top-tier actress.

As for the others, their popularity has increased considerably!

Even Chen Keke, who made a special appearance, received a lot of attention and buzz, although she herself didn't care.

Chen Keke's participation was mainly for fun; she didn't really consider it much for herself.

Chen Keke's participation was mainly for fun; she didn't really consider it much for herself.

She's probably more concerned about box office performance, since she owns shares in Lanco Entertainment.

The more a movie grosses, the more money it makes!

Chen Keke is actually a money-grubber, but the entertainment industry is a place of fame and fortune.

Many people enter the entertainment industry for financial gain, but they are not as straightforward as Chen Keke.

On the eighth day, "Better Days" surpassed 1 billion yuan at the box office.

There is still considerable potential for further growth, and it is still possible to reach the original box office target of 15.58 billion yuan.

The roadshow is still ongoing. The scheduled time is half a month, and the schedule was announced a long time ago, so we definitely can't go back on our word.

However, Liu Yulan, the mother, is preparing to hold a celebration banquet to generate some buzz.

The location was set in Jiangcheng so that Bai Lu and others who were originally scheduled to do a roadshow wouldn't have to travel back and forth.

Chen Jingyuan does not intend to participate this time and will send Wang Juan on his behalf. He is currently preparing for the "Changjin Lake" project.

After two weeks of discussion and confirmation, the investment share has been finalized.

The box office success of "Better Days" undoubtedly further solidified Chen Jingyuan's reputation as a master of metaphysics.

Naturally, in order to grab a larger share, many companies are showing no mercy.

China Film Group, Shanghai Film Group, Enlight Media, and even the Guangdong Pearl River Film Studio's adaptation group also wanted to get involved.

This movie is indeed quite special, and since it's set in the same place as Penguin, it definitely deserves some respect.

Chen Jingyuan was glad that he had entrusted this matter to Chen Wu before, otherwise he would have had a headache seeing so many people arguing every day.

This time, many companies directly excluded Huayi, as if there was no such company.

It's clear that the previous incident still angered the public, so Huayi won't be involved this time.

Of course, Huayi is not aware of this collaboration at the moment and is currently cooperating with some investigations.

The two Wang brothers didn't care at all that many people didn't include them in the group.

Other entertainment companies did the same thing, sending representatives to the celebration banquet for "Better Days".
