You know, this is a drama film with a cost of only 45 million U.S. dollars. It grossed 1.088 billion U.S. dollars, making Zhang Xiao a direct profit of 300 million U.S. dollars.
This does not include video tapes, online videos and other subsequent derivative income.
After the premiere of "The Truman Show", Zhang Xiao only stayed in the Lighthouse Country for a week and appeared on several talk shows.
With three global hit movies, "The Dark Knight", "The Fast and the Furious" and "The Truman Show", Zhang Xiao has become an international superstar, with his salary increased to US$30 million.
After returning from the Lighthouse Country, Zhang Xiao directly joined the crew of "The Wandering Planet". Many reporters wanted to interview him, but they were all blocked by the crew.
Knowing that on the eve of Ant Group's Double Eleven party, Zhang Xiao accepted Boss Ma's invitation and came to Hangzhou with Wu Jin.
Entering the five-star hotel owned by Ant Group, Zhang Xiao knocked on Yang Mi’s door.
"Honey, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you so much!" Yang Mi opened the door and saw Zhang Xiao. She started to tremble with excitement and hugged him directly.
Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Don't be like this, everyone is watching!"
Ant Group's Double Eleven party was expected to be full of big names. In addition to Yang Mi and Reba, there were also many female stars in the room.
Seeing Zhang Xiao come in, all the female celebrities quickly stood up and greeted him.
Zhang Xiao responded to everyone with a smile, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
He still remembered that when he first met Liu Yifei and others, although he didn't say anything, his expression looked down on him.
And now...
When these people saw him, there was more or less awe in their eyes. Zhang Xiao knew that this was a change brought about by status.
Reba quickly poured a glass of water for Zhang Xiao and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, will you have a performance tomorrow night?"
Zhang Xiao shook his head and said: "Probably not. I only received a notice that Boss Ma and Brother Jie will go on stage to promote the movie "Gong Shou Dao". There are no others. What about you? Are there any programs?"
Reba nodded and said: "We are not as lucky as you. We must go up to perform."
Zhang Xiao smiled and said, "If you don't want to go on stage, I can go talk to Boss Ma."
"Don't!" Reba said quickly: "I have worked hard to practice martial arts for a week, and I don't want to end in vain. Brother-in-law, you can't harm me!"
At this moment, Zhang Xiao's cell phone suddenly rang.
When he opened it, he saw that it was Boss Ma's call. Zhang Xiao picked it up directly and asked, "Boss Ma, what are your instructions?"
"How dare I give you instructions, Xiao Shen?" Boss Ma on the other end of the phone joked: "Didn't I hear that you and Wu Jin came to the hotel? I want to meet you in the evening."
Zhang Xiao asked curiously: "Tomorrow is Double Eleven. Are you not busy tonight?"
"The busy work has already been finished!" Boss Ma replied.
Zhang Xiao glanced at Yang Mi and said to the other end of the phone: "Okay, we'll see you tonight."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xiao shrugged and said, "Hey, I originally wanted to treat everyone to dinner, but now the plan is ruined."
Reba smiled and said: "Brother-in-law, it's the same thing if you asked Sister Mimi to invite us!"
Yang Mi raised her hand and flicked the seeds on Reba's head and said, "Don't even think about it. We have agreed that whoever loses will be treated as a treat."
Reba quickly covered her forehead and said: "Sister Mimi, my brother-in-law has made billions from "The Truman Show", can't you be more generous?"
Yang Mi said like a miser: "Do you want money or your life? No!"
Everyone was confused by Yang Mi’s behavior...
Quite speechless anyway.
···
Soon, after Zhang Xiao left, the atmosphere in the room became much more relaxed.
Liu Yifei patted her chest and said, "I didn't think much of it before, but today I suddenly realized that Brother Xiao has such a strong aura. Sitting in front of him, I felt a little nervous."
Tang Yuyan echoed: "Yes, I feel the same way."
Yang Mi said with a smile: "This is all because of your psychology. Although my brother-in-law has now become an international superstar, nothing has changed privately. If you look at me, I am not nervous."
"You?" Liu Yifei was stunned and said, "Can you do the same? You often meet with him, but we don't. Besides, didn't you hear him talking to Boss Ma?"
"The tone is just like talking to ordinary people. Oh my God, that's Boss Ma. If I had known that Zhang Xiao was so powerful, I would have gone after him."
Reba encouraged: "Sister Yifei, it's not too late for you to chase her now!"
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Yang Mi grabbed her arm and said, "Reba, are you itchy recently and need a scratch?"
"No, Sister Mimi, I was wrong!" Reba quickly begged for mercy.
"Hahaha!"
Everyone at the scene burst out laughing.
In the evening, Zhang Xiao and Wu Jin came to the dining box they had agreed with Boss Ma Li Liangjie and others.
After everyone sat down, Boss Ma gave Zhang Xiao a thumbs up and said, "Zhang Xiao, you are so awesome. You must have made 300 million US dollars with "The Truman Show"!"
"Calculated purely in terms of profit, you have already surpassed 97% of domestic companies."
Li Liangjie smiled and said: "Old horse, you made a mistake. This year Zhang Xiao not only has one "The Truman Show", but also "I'm Not a Medicine God" and "Crazy Stone". The profit of the three movies should be
