Chapter 53: Box Office Soaring Unstoppably
With a hint of discontent and torture, Zhou Shaoming savagely yet gently bit into Kirsten's tender pink lips, expressing all the boundless love he had.
The sweetest and most innocent girl's flavor, attracted Zhou Shaoming, at this moment his body was completely controlled by the most primitive instinct, he domineeringly sucked and licked, unintentionally even probing to enter, entwining that passionate tongue that devoted everything.
Breathing heavily, he roughly tore off Kristina's tight pink long dress, revealing the enchanting body that had been swirling in his mind every night.
Just as imagined, the delicate and smooth skin, white and enticing, the snow-white that a tall man can't grasp with one hand, is tightly grasped in the palm, sometimes pinched flat and sometimes curled into a semicircle.
A heart-stopping moan was artificially suppressed, and gradually, with Zhou Shaoming's slightly violent movements, it started to get louder and louder, unstoppable. When the sensitive area was enveloped, Christina's entire body went numb, feeling only the surging desire that had been unleashed and could no longer be contained.
"Zhou, I can't take it anymore....................!" The charming and delicate Christina, with a face as red as a peach, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, her beautiful pink lips lightly parted, saying words that even she couldn't bear.
Zhou Shaoming, who could no longer bear it, laughed and pressed Christina, who was already completely naked, heavily under his body.
After a long while, the two exhausted people finally let go of each other and fell onto the bed. Zhou Shaoming panted heavily, trying to move but found himself too tired to even lift his little finger.
"You bad guy, you've exhausted me to death!" Kristina said, lying on Zhou Shaoming's chest, playfully touching his face and saying foolishly.
"Haha! After enduring for over 20 years, can't I cause some trouble?" Zhou Shaoming burst out laughing, and his hand sneakily reached up to touch Kristina's towering and enchanting peaks once again.
"Stop messing around, I've been on a plane for over 20 hours to accompany you, and now I have to put up with your nonsense. Mr. Bandit, have mercy on me!" Kristina's slender body trembled as she dodged Zhou Shaoming's strange hands.
"Alright, alright, I know you're good. Come, sleep in my arms!" Zhou Shaoming stopped teasing the extremely sleepy Cristiana and affectionately hugged her into his arms, smelling the scent of her hair.
"Enjoy these last moments of peace, in a few days you'll be a billionaire director and a diamond king with tens of millions of dollars, the paparazzi will be like me, eager to get close to you." Kristina snuggled comfortably into Zhou Shaoming's arms, humming happily, then closed her beautiful eyes and murmured.
"Paparazzi? Hehe, don't be afraid of them, let them take pictures!" Zhou Shaoming didn't think much of it and whispered closely into Kristen's ear.
They whispered to each other, chatting and chatting, and before they knew it, they fell fast asleep.
Afterwards, the two of them stuck together like any other loving couple, and whenever Christina had a spare moment during filming, she would rush into Zhou Shaoming's arms.
Waikiki Beach, Waimia Canyon, Kauai Island Garden, and other famous scenic spots on the island of Shaver have left sweet and warm memories of the two.
Days passed in intimacy, and the box office of "Saw" soared like a rocket, without any intention of stopping.
In its second week of release, 3,057 theaters were added and the film's box office take only dropped by 10%, earning $47.15 million, while other films that opened wide in their second week usually drop around 30% or more! This shows the strong drawing power of Saw.
While major media and audience reviews overwhelmingly praised it, Saw has left everyone in awe with a 96% high score on Rotten Tomatoes!
"Unmatched horror movie, a classic work before the dawn of the new millennium, a rookie director was born from the fire, and his first step in life is so stunning. The bizarre killing method, the plot is so tight that even the popcorn is forgotten, the profound connotation of the film makes people think deeply, such a perfect unity, combined in Saw, speechless, speechless!" - Roger Ebert
He then applied for a trademark for his two thumbs up "two-thumbs-up"
In its third week of release, it grossed $35.26 million, remaining at the top spot on the weekly box office chart with almost no competition.
As one of the strongest supporters of Smith's week, Yahoo Entertainment has launched a special edition, recording people's film reviews, thoughts, and behind-the-scenes jokes from the crew, as well as the rising box office of "Saw"!
Of course, Yahoo! Entertainment didn't forget about the bet with Chicago Sun-Times' entertainment section and when the North American box office exceeded $100 million, it reminded the editors of the Sun-Times' entertainment section in big bold letters that it was time to pay up on the wager!
"Welcome to streaking! Don't forget that superstar director Smith will be on site this week!" said Yahoo Entertainment.
The Chicago Sun-Times has suddenly stopped its ridicule of Smith and is now tight-lipped.
In its fourth week, it continued to gross $28.92 million, bringing the North American box office total to $106.948 million, as if verifying that James Wan was not bragging, and Saw's North American box office indeed surpassed The Blair Witch, with a rocket-like speed that allowed it to continuously surpass Paramount Pictures' Runaway Bride, Universal Pictures' Meet Joe Black, and Columbia Pictures' Big Daddy, all the way to sixth place on the 1999 North American box office chart. Above Saw were The Matrix, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, The Sixth Sense, and Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, those big-name movies that thundered in people's ears. And that Blair Witch, which was compared to Saw, had already disappeared from the top 10 box office chart, nowhere to be found.
Until November 24, Disney's "Toy Story 2" reloaded, which finally pulled the weak "Saw" down from the horse and became the box office champion. Meanwhile, "Saw" had just mercilessly harvested $12.1 million, directly killing off Artisan Entertainment's "Tarzan" and easily occupying the sixth position in North America's 1999 box office rankings.
That day, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Chicago Sun could no longer bear the label of "turtle" and "liar" in the industry, suddenly bursting into a rage in the office, slamming his hand on the table and scolding the entertainment editor until he was covered in blood, forcing all editors in the entertainment section to take responsibility for what they had said.
"If you guys have said something, don't take it seriously. Who the hell still thinks that what you've interviewed is true? For my newspaper, my reputation! You all go to Yahoo Entertainment's headquarters and run naked!!! Whoever doesn't go can just not come to work tomorrow!" The big boss's saliva made the editor-in-chief wet from head to toe, and the furious editor-in-chief gathered all his subordinates together again, a wave of roaring abuse poured out towards them, making every Chicago Sun-Times editor's heart chill!
