It beca the box office champion of the week.

The cumulative box office in North Arica reached $39.46 million.

In second place was Selena’s "Monteloca," which, thanks to the fa of its cast and the powerful promotional capabilities of the Disney Company, earned $10.63 million in its second week, with a cumulative box office of over $25 million, which is on par with the production cost.

"Scandal Plan," after ten days of release in North Arica, has brought in nearly $40 million at the box office, which, compared to its re $10 million cost, can be deed a huge success.

Generally, for movies, a cost-to-revenue ratio of more than three tis is considered a hit, five tis is a big hit, and ten tis is considered a blockbuster, a dark horse of the year.

"Variety" magazine predicts that this film will have a North Arican box office around $70 million and a global box office of $120 million, easily a blockbuster hit.

According to film industry practice, when a movie sells well, many professional dia outlets will analyze it to study the reasons behind its success, providing direction for other films; this can also be referred to as ’market trend analysis.’

Last week, when the dia analyzed the reasons, they believed that a key to the movie’s success was choosing the right actress for the lead role.

Emma Stone’s wonderful performance added a lot of luster to the film, and if it had been another actress, it might have turned into a tasteless campus cody.

The second reason was the script and Will Guler’s solid directing skills.

The third was the participation of big star Link and Lisa Kudrow, one of the stars of "Friends," which brought a lot of fa to the film.

By this week, when dia analyzed the reasons for the film’s big sales, they elevated Link to the sa level of importance as Emma Stone.

They believe the reason the movie’s box office didn’t drop much this week was mainly because of Link’s fa and strong appeal; his fans contributed a large portion of the box office.

Also, his several trending searches added a lot of exposure for the film, which is very crucial during the ti a film is in theaters.

If Link hadn’t been part of the film, the box office this week would have likely dropped by at least 35%.

"Hmph!"

"Is your nose uncomfortable?"

"Hmph!"

At the dining table, Selena twirled her spaghetti with a fork, puffing up her round face and glaring at him.

"Last year I invited you to play a role in ’Monteloca,’ but you refused. If you had co, my movie’s box office would have been better, and it could have been the champion of the week. It’s all your fault that we didn’t win."

Link was amused by her words.

"Didn’t you know I was busy last year? Besides, I rember there wasn’t a role suitable for in that movie. Were you expecting to play Sairo?"

"Why not?"

"What are you thinking? We’re siblings; how could we play lovers?"

Link raised his hand and lightly smacked her smooth forehead.

Whack!

Selena pouted and glared at him, snatched the apple pie from his hand, took a big bite, and smiled triumphantly, tilting her little face upwards.

Link shook his head, picked up another apple pie, and asked little Anne where she wanted to go today; he was free and could spend the day with her.

"To Disney Park, I have a VIP pass; we can play there all day."

Before Anne could respond, Selena eagerly exclaid.

"It’s not about you; how old are you, and you still want to go to an amusent park?"

"Hmph, when I was a kid, I had to attend classes and Disney training camps; I hardly went to an amusent park even a few tis a year. It’s such a regret. Now that I have ti, I need to fill in the gaps of my childhood."

Selena shouted.

Madam Mandy glared at her, "Many of your training camp courses were at Disney Park; you went there once a week, and Catherine and I often took you to the amusent park. You have three photo albums full of pictures taken at amusent parks as a child. Do you want to dig them out for you to see?"

Selena paused for a mont, then scratched her round face with her paw.

"Who rembers things from when they were little? Alright, let’s not talk about this, Anne, lovely little Anne, tell us, where do you want to go today?"

Selena shifted everyone’s attention back to little Anne.

Little Anne blinked her large eyes, thought for a mont, then said softly, "To Disney?"

"Haha, look, Anne and I think alike; we really are good sisters."

Selena puckered up her oily lips and planted a kiss on Anne’s face, and Link, with a look of distaste, pushed her head away and wiped Anne’s bouncy little face with a wet wipe.

"The news said that Taylor is releasing the first promo single for her third album today. Have you heard it?"

Catherine asked, putting down a plate of black-seeded waterlon.

"Oh! I almost forgot."

Selena grabbed a piece of waterlon, chewed it, and quickly ran outside. A few seconds later, she ca back in, carrying an Apple laptop.

"This single is called ’The Story of Us’; Link, it’s obviously about you guys. Wow, it’s been uploaded for less than two hours, and it’s already got over 1.65 million plays. That’s outrageous. Let’s listen and see how it is."

Chattering away, Selena clicked on the music player, and Taylor’s light-hearted, sweet, and warm voice ca through the computer speakers.

I used to think one day we’d tell the story of us

How we t and the sparks flew instantly

And people would say they’re the lucky ones
