In this era, due to the population explosion and numerous colonial planets, movie box-office revenues were frighteningly high.
For big productions, the standard for "passable" box-office revenues started at over one billion Starshield; "good" was pegged at 1.5 billion, and "excellent" at two billion. To be considered a "smash hit," a film had to rake in at least five billion Starshield.
However, this particular film had encountered investment problems and could no longer truly be called a "big production."
So, when the box office hit five hundred million Starshield after just half a week, Chen Gu was already quite satisfied. With this momentum, breaking seven hundred million in the first week was no issue, and the total box office was expected to be around two billion. It could possibly even go higher.
Given the current box-office profit-sharing ratio, there was no doubt it would be a lucrative windfall.
