Chapter 678: Chapter 677: Legend!

"It’s all thanks to my peers setting the stage!"

When Wang Hao said this, all the netizens watching erupted in laughter!

"HAHAHA, that’s so funny!"

"It’s true though, our country’s directors and screenwriters just aren’t cutting it!"

"Not just domestic, but the international ones too, like that ’Three Lives of Love’—what a train wreck, LOL!"

Countless netizens commented, saying Wang Hao’s words were empowering, but also many knew that what he said had actually offended a lot of people.

After all, many peers in the film industry are not that magnanimous—it was like slapping them in the face in public!

"Brother Hao’s words are satisfying, but I’m afraid those guys might hold grudges!"

"That’s true. Those people may not achieve much, but they sure can cause trouble."

"Yeah, but I think with Brother Hao’s talent, he really doesn’t need to act according to their whims."

Everyone was discussing Wang Hao’s interview, and to be honest, Wang Hao himself is a nice guy, but regarding the issue with ’War Wolf’, he had spoken out of significant resentment!

He didn’t want to bring up past events since what’s gone is gone—who would dwell on history all the time?

But the group of directors and actors in the country had really let him down!

In just one week, ’War Wolf’ broke countless records! Total box office! Single-day box office! Ratings on Douban!

All were the highest in the history of Heavenly People’s Republic’s film industry!

And it didn’t stop there—he could say that he had officially beaten Hollywood director Michael Bragg and the entire ’Three Lives of Love’ crew, the team touted as the most powerful combination in the history of Heavenly People’s Republic.

Yet, with such achievements, not a single person had come to congratulate Wang Hao over these days!

Only his friends were genuinely happy for him.

Lan Zihuang, Yang Shoulin, Gao Mingxing, and so on—only these people were truly delighted.

As for the others—not one!

They were jealous, they were envious, they still couldn’t believe their eyes! And so, one record after another was broken, and the whole entertainment industry suddenly went silent, deaf, and blind!

No one from the industry came out to even offer a simple congratulations.

How could people with such narrow minds produce anything good? That’s why Wang Hao delivered the line, "It’s all thanks to my peers setting the stage."

Since you all have no shame, why should I indulge you? Who are you all anyway, why should I give you face?

Although Wang Hao might have offended the entire entertainment industry, there was a silver lining.

The ordinary people really supported him!

In the following days, not just the film industry of Heavenly People’s Republic, even the entire world’s film industry went completely silent!

War Wolf’s box office hit 27.5 billion in one week, and on the eighth day, the box office was 3.5 billion! On the ninth day, the box office was 3.3 billion! In the following week, it grossed another 23 billion in total box office!

’War Wolf’s’ total box office officially broke 50 billion!

Online, people were still not over their excitement, as countless speculated about the final box office number ’War Wolf’ could reach!

"Terrifying! 50 billion in box office in two weeks!"

"Brother Hao is awesome, he’s practically invincible now!"

"The box office is horrifying, and it’s only been two weeks!"

"Just waiting to see how much the final box office for ’War Wolf’ will be!"

Two weeks and a box office of fifty billion stunned everyone!

In the following period, the momentum of ’War Wolf’ finally began to diminish, but only relatively speaking!

Because in the third week, the total box office of ’War Wolf’ officially broke through sixty-five billion, and by the fourth week, it had reached the astronomical figure of seventy-five billion! Countless people were astonished, and the entire entertainment industry fell silent!

Because Wang Hao showed them with facts that it wasn’t that the current generation of audience was lacking in spirit, but rather your works were just rubbish!

By this point, if anyone claimed they hadn’t seen ’War Wolf,’ it would be like they were voluntarily nailing themselves to a pillar of shame, and if they mentioned "that’s in the past," no matter where it came from, they’d be scorned even while drinking!

Time flies.

When ’War Wolf’ was finally pulled from theaters, the total box office for forty-five days was... eighty-two billion!

A whopping eighty-two billion in total box office!

Legend! This is the undying legend!

...

That day.

Countless news media reporters rushed to the ’War Wolf’ celebration banquet location, a dense crowd armed with long and short cameras, just waiting for on-site interviews with the actual leader of the ’War Wolf’ crew, Director Wang Hao.

But unexpectedly...

Wang Hao pulled a beautiful strategic evasion, akin to building a plank road in the open but sneaking through the hidden path of Chen Cang!

The restaurant he notified the reporters about was completely devoid of people! The true location of the crew’s celebration banquet had actually been elsewhere for a long time!

"Hahahaha, Brother Hao, you really are awesome," inside one of Fang Wenbin’s estates, Fang was lifting his glass of alcohol and laughing heartily; "I feel like laughing just thinking about those reporters waiting to the left and right but seeing no one! This bunch of folks who fear the world may not be in chaos, that’s exactly how you should play them!"

"That’s right," Ren Xing proudly held his glass nearby, saying: "I’m telling you, with Brother Hao’s wisdom, there’s simply nothing to criticize. Just you wait, you’ll be making money even in your sleep, haha!"

Wang Hao’s circle of wild friends were the happiest at this time.

The total box office of ’War Wolf’ reached eighty-two billion, and according to the division between the cinema chain and the crew, their total income was around twenty-seven billion!

Twenty-seven billion!

Do you know how much was invested in this film? The military equipment arranged by Commander Xiang was the biggest expense. Other than that, there was almost no investment, and all together, including publicity, it was only about fifty million!

Fifty million in investment, twenty-seven billion in return!

What’s called a lucrative profit? This is a lucrative profit!

"Haha, didn’t I say there was no problem with this film?" Wang Hao lifted his glass, quite happy at the moment. Holding Bai Yaning’s hand as he walked into the crowd, Wang Hao smiled and said: "Wait until the final box office settlement, next we just need to divide it according to everyone’s share. Everyone has made quite a bit this time, haven’t they?"

"Made quite a bit, made quite a bit," Bai Ze was the happiest one: "Not to mention winning the bet, each of us can split several billion. It’s just fantastic!"

"That’s true," Zhao Zhenhao nodded in agreement: "Brother Hao, there’s nothing to say when you make a move."

He thought carefully and said: "Right, Brother Hao, once the box office settlement is done, you must take a share, no matter how much just say it, no need to be polite with us!"

Profit sharing, well, clear accounts make good friends, and now that the box office has made a fortune, Wang Hao was a significant contributor. Although he didn’t invest much this time, according to Zhao Zhenhao’s thinking, Wang Hao deserved the lion’s share of this film!

But while Zhao Zhenhao thought this way, Wang Hao was indifferent: "That’s all trivial, my share can just be divided among everyone else. Everyone’s pretty tired, and we can’t be the only ones eating meat while others can’t even drink the broth. Anyway, this time Yaning and I are officially in a relationship, and Uncle Bai doesn’t object, which is more worthwhile than any amount of money."

"Indeed, indeed," hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement: "Getting Uncle Bai’s approval is definitely more important than any amount of money!"

This was no exaggeration. What kind of family is the Bai family? Would they care about your few billions?

As long as Bai Haochen doesn’t object to the relationship between Wang Hao and Bai Yaning, once they get married, what would they lack?

Everyone was genuinely happy for Wang Hao, and just at that moment, an event host quickly approached them and whispered to the group: "Young Master, Mr. Wang, Hong Tianjun from the Hong family has arrived!"
