CHAPTER 846: CHAPTER 848: RECORD-BREAKING PREMIERE

Among the pile of shattered glass, it’s somewhat comforting that at least Li Xiaoxiao only wreaked havoc on the male lead and not more people.

Some stand by Li Xiaoxiao because they really like her personality.

Her character is pure, and it’s this kind of innocent fierceness that allows her to turn danger into safety and come back to life every time.

This kind of personality no longer exists in modern society.

As people integrate into society, they gradually smooth out their edges and start to comply. Supporters of Li Xiaoxiao believe that everyone has a Li Xiaoxiao living inside them.

A stubborn girl who risks everything for her dreams.

[Li Xiaoxiao’s existence is a stupidity halo, lowering the IQ of the entire series.]

[I really like her, admire her, even if it means dying on the most beautiful ideals.]

[Li Xiaoxiao’s character really makes me feel complicated. When I first watched it, my thoughts were the same as others; I wished I could shoot her with a gun because she’s really brain-dead!!

She seems not to think, just relying on sheer stubbornness to charge to the end! But in the end, when Li Xiaoxiao took a bullet for the male lead and said those words, my view changed, and I began to deeply think about this character.

Personally, I think the screenwriter, who can write such a good script, wouldn’t create such a mindless character for no reason. There’s definitely value in Li Xiaoxiao’s existence, so I started analyzing her personality.

I suddenly realized that Li Xiaoxiao is the stubborn youth that once existed in each of our hearts.

Was she silly? I think she’s quite silly, coming alone to such a dangerous place to seek the truth she wanted.

When there’s a battle, she hides; when there’s a robbery, she chases. Why shouldn’t people praise and commend such a self-reliant young girl? Who did she offend?]

This long review received many likes and quickly became a trending topic.

Who is Li Xiaoxiao?

Actually, she exists within us, representing the stubborn, rebellious, undefeated, and arrogant parts we all once had!

[Agree, I really like her character. We all view her from a God-perspective, but if you stand in her shoes, every decision she made was correct.

Ultimately, her death was meaningful. The screenwriter did something incredible, elevating her stupid character in the last moment, which shocked me enough to shed tears for her.

No matter how mixed up she was, I didn’t want her to die. She’s just a child, so why burden her with such tremendous pressure?]

This contradictory character has stirred discussion even among those who haven’t watched the series, making them curious enough to watch it despite their initial reluctance.

At Tonghua Entertainment, Luo You was stationed in the data analysis room, staring seriously at the data; success or failure hinged on this moment!

If "Special Action" achieves good results, they won’t need to hope for "Devil’s Sea 4: Misty Jungle," as this single drama will elevate He Jinxia to A-list status!

As the discussion volume rose steadily, Luo You’s expression relaxed slightly.

Ten minutes later, a staff member hurriedly ran in: "Record broken, record broken!"

Luo You quickly asked, "What record?"

The staff member replied, "This year’s first-day box office record, five hundred million, five hundred million!"

It’s stable!

Luo You let out a heavy sigh of relief, his body momentarily unstable.

He murmured, "Five hundred million, five hundred million is good, five hundred million is really good..."

Suddenly, he recalled something and quickly asked, "How are the reviews?"

The staff member answered, "The marketing accounts friendly with Tonghua Entertainment specially interviewed audiences coming out of the premiere of ’Special Action’; many of them had tears in their eyes, especially the female viewers.

Eighty percent of the women said it was a film worth watching, worth the ticket price, and thirty percent expressed willingness to watch it again to support it; the word-of-mouth is excellent!"

Luo You’s restless heart completely settled. He stared blankly at the scene ahead for a while, then suddenly laughed loudly, slapping his thigh as if he’d lost his mind.

"Great, excellent reputation, excellent box office, high discussion - these are the hallmarks of a hit! It’s truly a hit this time!"

The victorious news of "Special Action’s" premiere, following Luo You’s report, spread throughout the company and reached the ears of some high-level executives.

They all smiled in unison; the original forty percent confidence of He Jinxia becoming an A-list actor now transformed into eighty percent!

In the top-floor office, Zhang Ming adjusted his expression and knocked on the door.

Shortly after, a deep, rich voice responded—

"Come in."

Zhang Ming pushed the door open and walked in, his expression still calm as he laid a document on the desk, summarizing recent procedures in a composed tone.

At the end of his speech, he casually injected a side note about the box office performance of the modern film "Special Action" starring He Jinxia.

"The day after tomorrow evening is Orosa’s event, and on the morning of the 14th, we’ll shoot a Vanks W Blog promotional short as a reward for unlocking your image endorsement.

By the way, He Jinxia-led ’Special Action’ achieved a victorious first showing, setting a new first-day box office record after release this year, breaking through to five hundred million in box office, with a noteworthy upward trend expected to continue for a week, signaling quality and high potential.

Online reviews are overwhelmingly positive, dominating three trending searches. Investigations found no sign of fake reviews.

Through natural accumulation, this work scored 8.2 on professional rating sites, with a final rating projected to steady at this eight-point gradient."

Sheng Yan’s hand paused holding the pen as he glanced at Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming winked at him, dropping the serious demeanor, smiling as he cheerfully teased:

"Congratulations, grand boss Sheng, it seems your long journey to win your wife’s heart may be cut in half. Based on my experience, this drama will be popular!

With this drama, He Jinxia will definitely step into the ranks of A-list stars! You can get married soon!"

Sheng Yan couldn’t help but smile slightly, lowered his head, signed his complete name on the document, and capped the pen, preparing to leave.

Zhang Ming was momentarily stunned and couldn’t help but stop him, asking, "Are you... so excited to hear this news that you’re deciding to, to skip work?"

Mentioning ’skip work’ so surprised Zhang Ming because, based on his years with Sheng Yan, this man was the epitome of a workaholic.
