Yun Xiangxiang went back to her busy filming schedule. "The King's Plan" saw an increase in the box office, but it didn't break two billion by the twenty-second.
At the last minute on the twenty-second, the box office stood at 1.95 billion and only broke through two billion on the twenty-fourth.
"A Gathering of Shows" would be broadcast on the twenty-fifth. With only seven days left, it was tough to make another six hundred million.
They couldn't break the record, but Wu Zhao, Xiong Ao, and even Cao Chi, the producer, were elated.
As a historical film, grossing this much was already a surprise.
They were just hoping for one billion in the box office. Now it was more than double of that. They were understandably happy.
The celebratory feast was set on the first of June. Yun Xiangxiang would finish her work in Shanghai on the twenty-eighth. All the remaining scenes would be shot in Beijing.
