The Box Office Scores Are Coming In [II]

Once Upon A Time had been released for a week and its box office was about to break the 1 billion mark, and judging from this momentum, it was estimated that breaking through the 2 billion mark was just around the corner for it.

Before this, everyone was waiting to see how it would perform, but now, the momentum of the movie was clear at a glance. With the wager between the two in everyone's minds, their focus was now on Sang Young.

Although Atlas's Atlantis Princess opened up a bright future for youth films, who could say for sure about the future?

It was already incredible for him to be able to direct such a successful movie in his lifetime. He might not reach the same again in what was generally known as peak at debut.

Besides, this time, it was the same type of youth film. So from a professional perspective, Atlantis Princess had almost reached the highest level of youth films in the history of the film and television industry.

It would be extremely difficult for Sang Young to surpass it again, not to talk of Han Suk's new film.

This was the industry's evaluation of whether Atlas could win the wager after the release of "Once Upon A Time".

As for the general audience, they didn't have any special expectations. Some of them were fans, and as long as their handsome young actors were in the movie, the movie was already a great one in their eyes. The other group of the film viewers focused on the box office. 

It was obvious at this moment that Once Upon A Time was a success. Its box office soared at an astonishing speed. Besides, Han Suk was not some unknown little director.

So as far as this stake was concerned, everyone believed that Atlas was going to lose.

Atlas at this moment knew nothing about this. He had been busy with the post-production of his new film in the past few days until Sin Yoon came to his house to find him.

"What are you doing, Mr. Sang? Take a look at Han Suk's face. You would think he has won!"

Atlas took the phone that Sin Yoon handed to him and took a look.

Han Suk reposted the Wave post announcing the release date of Atlas's movie.

[Thank you all very much for your support of my movie. Our box office has now reached 1 billion. I am also looking forward to Mr Sang Young s movie!]

The comments below were all from trolls.

"Thank you Han Suk for giving us back a complete youth. I hope somebody's movie won't ruin this hard-earned reputation."

"My brother is so lucky to meet such an excellent director like Han Suk!"

"I would like to call it the best youth film ever. Can somebody be a little more self-aware?"

"This somebody they're talking about is me, isn't it?" Atlas asked Sin Yoon with a smile.

"Who else could it be, me?"

"Just joking. I knew it was me."

"Aren't you going to fight back?" If this happened to Sin Yoon herself, she would of course ignore it. After all, it was the entertainment industry. She was used to this kind of thing.

But this happened to Sang Young, and she just couldn't stand it. She couldn't allow so many people to slander him like this. If she wasn't afraid of it affecting Sang Young, she would have hired some internet trolls to fight back.

Atlas shook his head. "Nothing. It's just a waste of time."

Sin Yoon didn't insist, she knew this would be the result. "Han Suk must be laughing so hard by now."

"Then let him laugh for a little while longer..." In Atlas's mind, doing these things was just a waste of time for him. Other than that, there was no point.

The quality of a movie was not determined by the time it was released. It was not just about using a few young, handsome and beautiful actors and actresses respectively, but the quality of the movie. 

Quality was the true strength of a movie. This was why, in the face of so many noisy voices from the outside world, Atlas could still calm down. He knew that the one who laughed last was the real winner.
