Now, the trophy had fallen to Xiao Yiran, which was surprising but also reasonable.
After all, Xiao Yiran's " Loyal Dog Eight Men " was indeed good. Whether it was the reputation or the box office, it had steadily surpassed Chen Zhicheng's " Tang 2 ". Xiao Yiran's only flaw was that he was not qualified enough.
Of course, Xiao Yiran's fans were the happiest.
With the popularity of " Loyal Dog Eight Men ", Xiao Yiran's fans had also increased day by day, and his number had exceeded five million.
Although the number of people they had was still not comparable to those popular celebrities or idols, they still had a certain amount of say on the Internet.
On Weibo, Tieba, and various forums, fans were celebrating Xiao Yiran's Best Director Award.
"Congratulations to Old Xiao for winning the Best Director Award. With the quality of 'The Loyal Dog Eight Princes', this award is completely well-deserved!”
"Yeah, that Chen Zhicheng's Tang Man 2 is so trashy, yet he still wants to compete with Almighty Qin. He really overestimates himself!”
"I only admire my Xiao. His first movie is already so good. If he continues to film, it will definitely be better. I will definitely support him!”
"I'm also looking forward to God Xiao's next movie. I just don't know when he will start filming. What kind of movie should it be?”
The fans were all discussing among themselves. While congratulating Xiao Yiran, they were also looking forward to his next movie.
While these fans were celebrating Xiao Yiran, some of them also talked about the bet between Xiao Yiran and Chen Zhicheng.
At this time," The Loyal Dog Hachi " and " Tang 2 " had already been released for more than half a month." The Loyal Dog Hachi " had earned nearly two billion yuan at the box office, while " Tang 2 " had earned nearly 1.7 billion yuan at the box office.
Moreover, the two movies had a huge gap in their reputation on the Internet." Loyal Dog Eight Gods " was already regarded as a divine work by movie fans, while " Tang Ren 2 " was just a ridiculous, funny, and lousy movie.
The reason why " Tang Ren 2 " could achieve such a high box office was not because of how good the movie was, but because of the audience base of " Tang Ren 1 "!
Although these two movies had not been released yet, everyone had already started to calculate how much Chen Zhicheng should pay Xiao Yiran according to the bet.
Now, the difference in box office results between the two sides was already more than 300 million yuan. When the movie stopped screening, there would definitely be more. Would Chen Zhicheng be willing to admit defeat and fulfill his bet this time?
After all, the bet between Chen Zhicheng and Xiao Yiran was only a verbal agreement. There were no legal restrictions. If Chen Zhicheng chose to renege on the debt, although it would be very embarrassing, Xiao Yiran could not force the other party to pay.
If it wasn't a lot of money, with Chen Zhicheng's status, he wouldn't go back on his word.
However, this was 300 million yuan. With such a huge sum of money, no one could guarantee that Chen Zhicheng would not fulfill his promise.
Just as many netizens were discussing this, Chen Zhicheng, who was sitting in his office, was also having a headache over this matter!
Chen Zhicheng had just finished looking at the latest box office figures and realized that the difference between Tangren 2 and Hachi Hachi had already reached more than 300 million.
And if this continued, Tang Ren 2 would have no chance of surpassing the box office. The gap between the two would only get bigger.
Looking at the box office figures, Chen Zhicheng was a little anxious.
If he replenished Xiao Yiran's box office earnings, Chen Zhicheng's 'Tang Ren 2' would be wasted. He wouldn't be able to earn a single cent. He might even lose money. How could Chen Zhicheng accept this?
However, the bet between the two parties had already been made public. Now, the entire Internet was paying attention to this matter. If Chen Zhicheng publicly went back on his word, then his reputation would be ruined. How could he survive in the entertainment industry in the future?
In this dilemma, Chen Zhicheng could only choose to give it his all. He had to think of a way to close the gap between the box office sales of both sides.
Chen Zhicheng no longer had any delusions about making Tang Ren 2's box office earnings surpass that of Loyal Dog Eight Duke.
Therefore, Chen Zhicheng took the lead actor of " Tang 2," Wang Baoqiang, and began to perform everywhere. They participated in various promotional activities and variety shows to promote their " Tang 2."
Chen Zhicheng had even hired a large number of Internet trolls to speak up for Tang 2 on the Internet while smearing Hachi.
"Isn't 'Loyal Dog Eight Gentlemen' just a story about a dog? What was there to see? It was not interesting at all.”
"Yeah, I fell asleep before I finished watching the movie! " Loyal Dog Eight Men " was really too boring. There wasn't even a climax in it. How could this be considered a movie?”
"I suggest that everyone watch Tang Ren 2. I guarantee that you will laugh until your belly breaks. You won't pee the entire time. If it's not funny, I'll eat sh * t live!”
A large number of comments began to appear on the Internet to defame " Loyal Dog Hachi " and praise " Tang Man 2." Even " Loyal Dog Hachi ", which had a rating of more than 9.5 on various major film review websites, began to drop all the way to 9.0.
