He quickly turned off the lights in the hall and went to rest.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Ye couldn't fall asleep in her room. She tiptoed to the door, walked to the sofa in the living room, and crawled into Han Ziming's blanket.
Han Ziming was groggily woken up and found someone holding him. He immediately understood what it was like from the feel of that touch.
He hugged Zhou Ye and said, "You have a roadshow tomorrow, now's not the time. Go to sleep."
Zhou Ye thought about it for a moment and agreed that it made sense, so he gave up on the idea.
-----------------
The following day, December 31st, at 10:12 AM,
Han Ziming and Zhou Ye slowly woke up.
He opened his phone and checked the real-time movie box office data on the Lighthouse Movie Box Office app.
All I saw was the movie "Take My Brother Away".
The preview screenings grossed 500 million yuan.
On December 30th, the midnight screening grossed 10 million yuan.
The film's cumulative box office revenue reached 1500 million.
It's 10 a.m. now, and the real-time box office for today's movies has already reached 1000 million.
Knowing that the midnight screenings of "Take My Brother Away" had higher box office revenue than "The Love Saint," Han Ziming knew the film's box office was secure!
The film "The Love Saint" grossed 30 million yuan at the box office on December 30th.
Also released around the same time was Jackie Chan's "Railroad Tigers," which premiered on December 23. Most people had already seen it, so it didn't have much impact on "Take My Brother Away."
As of December 31, the film's box office had exceeded 400 million yuan. Han Ziming remembered that the film eventually grossed over 600 million yuan, so he knew it wouldn't affect the box office of "Kuai Ge".
The previous film, "The Love Saint," grossed around 6.5 million yuan, and this one should do well as well, since it targets a different demographic than "Brother Kuai."
After all, the female lead Clara's looks and figure are really top-notch, which will definitely attract many young and middle-aged people to watch. The song "Eating Fried Chicken at People's Square" is also very popular.
Looking at the real-time box office figures, Zhou Ye asked, "Xiao Mo, the midnight screening grossed 1000 million, and adding that to the morning's figures, it's 2500 million. The movie's box office should be fine now, right?"
Han Ziming smiled and said, "Don't worry, the box office won't be bad."
Zhou Ye was overjoyed: "That's great! This is my first movie! I'm going to work hard on the promotional tour!"
She quickened her pace, ate a little something hastily, and ran out.
Meanwhile, driver Lao Wu was already waiting downstairs to take Han Ziming back to Jinmao Mansion.
The movie "Take My Brother Away" became a hot topic overnight, topping the Weibo entertainment real-time rankings.
As soon as he got in the car, he opened Weibo and immediately browsed the entertainment trending topics list. He saw that the top twenty posts were mostly reports related to the movie "Take My Brother Away".
In Han Ziming's view, the publicity team spent a lot of money, mainly because they got on too many trending topics.

[Hot] #The premiere of the movie "Take My Brother Away" was marred by a heated argument between three major film industry figures: Tencent and the head of iQiyi!#
Well, as expected, celebrities and their scandals are what everyone's paying attention to, taking the top spot. After all, these celebrities have a lot of fans, and there are many people who love to gossip.
As for the last one, the argument between Tencent and the bigwigs of iQiyi, Han Ziming was impressed; the whole thing was fabricated from a single photo.
However, now that Douban has released a score and rating, the quality of this movie should be guaranteed.
Then I looked at the comments under several other trending topics:
[So Han Ziming wasn't daydreaming after all; this movie is actually pretty good. What are those lousy directors supposed to do now?]
[Haha, Cement Sister, you'd better hurry up and buy some cement to seal the 13th!]
[To the person upstairs: Cement Sister has already deleted her account!]
[This author is amazing! Looking forward to Mozi Films' next movie!]
[It seems Han Ziming has a special relationship with these film industry bigwigs, iQiyi, and Tencent. Is he planning something big?]
[Han Ziming sings really well, he should debut soon!]
[Zhou Mo and his partner are such a perfect match! They're both so good-looking, I'm totally shipping them!]
[Han Ziming pulling Zhou Ye along on the red carpet—it's obviously a case of unspoken rules!]
[Upstairs, don't talk nonsense. Look at Han Ziming's complexion; he doesn't look like someone who overindulges in sex.]
[The movie was great! I'm looking forward to Peng Peng, Mai Mai, and Xiao Hu's promotional tour. I'm definitely going to see it again!]
Why would Hu Ge attend a premiere? Is there some kind of collaboration?
[Han Ziming, stay away from Da Tiantian! You're obviously a scumbag. Don't hurt her, let me handle this!]
Han Ziming felt that the overall online comments were pretty good, so he stopped paying attention to them, turned off his phone, and closed his eyes to rest.
quickly,
Han Ziming returned to Jinmao Mansion.
It was discovered that Zhang Ruonan had already started attending Zhang Songwen's acting training class.
He first called Zhao Siyao, the head of the agency, and asked her to find Zhou Ye an assistant.
Although Zhou Ye is not an employee of Han Ziming's company, as his former girlfriend who had a brief affair with him, he must take good care of her.
Now it's only natural to assign an assistant and train her to be an inside agent, just like Xiao Hong. In the future, if anything happens, she can notify Han Ziming to avoid being bullied.
He plans to set up a studio for Zhou Ye. After the movie is released and she becomes famous, Hesong should have some ideas.
However, the timing was brought forward by two years. After all, the movie "Better Days" was released much later, and I remember that was when Hesong had just signed her.
If Zhou Ye were placed at Mozi Films, he'd probably never have a peaceful future. Although the final direction is unclear, it's better to keep him out there, just in case.
Actually, it's pretty much the same in Bailu's area, but she's a special case.
Mozi Films spent 300 million yuan to transfer her contract. Originally, Teacher Yu had considered giving her any role because she was no longer with Huanyu Company.
However, due to the huge success of Mozi Films' "The Beginning", she was ultimately given the role of the second female lead in "Phoenix Prisoner".
Han Ziming remembers that filming for "Phoenix Prisoner" started in January 2017 and didn't wrap up until May. Bai Lu should be very busy right now, and Han Ziming hasn't had time to deal with her yet.
