Chapter 576: The Blessing of the Qi People (Part 2)
…
February 10, 1988.
"Captain America", which has been released for fifty-two days, has finally been drawn.
So far, the box office results of the movies released in the Christmas schedule can finally be counted.
The penultimate place: "Rogue Hero", with a box office of less than two million.
The penultimate place: "Golden Swallow", with a box office of 9.8 million Hong Kong dollars.
The third from the bottom: "The Sequel of the Provincial and Hong Kong Banner Soldiers Divided into Two Ways", with a box office of 12 million Hong Kong dollars.
Third place: "The True Colors of a Hero 3", with a box office of 22.72 million Hong Kong dollars.
Second place: "Prison Storm", with a box office of 31.6 million Hong Kong dollars.
First place: "Captain America", with a box office of 54.22 million Hong Kong dollars.
As soon as this result came out, the entire Xiangjiang film industry was shocked!
First of all, the first thing that bears the brunt is "Captain America", which has won a box office of 54.22 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, a small place with a population of only 5 million. The box office results not only broke Xiangjiang’s previous box office records, but even raised the box office record from 4,000 stalls to 5,000 stalls in an instant, leaving a super-high height of 4 million Hong Kong dollars. This result is really shocking. Ghosts!
Secondly, the overall box office of the movies in the Christmas schedule is also very amazing-removing the soy-sauce movie "Rogue Hero", the worst "Golden Swallow" has also won nearly 10 million Hong Kong dollars in the box office! You know, Hong Kong films like "Golden Swallow" and "The Sequel of the Provincial and Hong Kong Banner Soldiers Divide into Two Ways", and even Hong Kong films such as "Prison Storm" and "The True Colors of Heroes 3", where Zhou Runfa, a big brother in the Hong Kong film industry, is in charge , and its production cost is generally only a few million Hong Kong dollars. Therefore, even if the overseas box office share is not counted, these films can make a lot of money relying on Hong Kong's local port alone.
Again, under the strangulation of the giant DreamWorks Films, the two independent production companies, MacDonald Bear Film Studio and Good Friends Films, can actually make a lot of money, which will inevitably give many people a sense of independent production. It feels like the spring of the company has come.
The shock of the Xiangjiang film industry is far more than that - within two days, there is news that although there are still many places that have not been drawn, but so far, "Captain America" has won 400 million taels of money in the world. Tens of millions of dollars at the box office! Among them, the three countries that contributed the most are: the United States, Japan, and China—the United States contributed 170 million U.S. dollars, the Japanese yen contributed more than 77 million U.S. dollars, and China contributed 150 million yuan. (equivalent to more than fifty-eight million U.S. dollars).
In other words, according to the production side, it can be divided into 30%. As of now, DreamWorks Films can earn 44 million US dollars just by producing "Captain America", which is more than 340 million in Hong Kong dollars. .
A movie has earned hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, how can this not make people jealous?
But the vast majority of people can only be jealous - after all, how many people in this world dare to invest 600 to 700 million Hong Kong dollars to make a movie like Xu Cun, no, it should be said to be a gamble on a movie?
Taking a step back, even if someone dared to bet 600 to 700 million Hong Kong dollars on a movie, who would have Xu Cun's ability to distribute this movie to the United States, Japan, China and other countries?
Has the shock of the Xiangjiang film industry come to an end?
of course not!
For the Chinese, the biggest schedule is not the Christmas schedule, but the Lunar New Year schedule.
During the Christmas season, Dreamworks Films is playing so big, how can the Lunar New Year file be anticlimactic?
As soon as "Captain America" was drawn, DreamWorks Films announced that DreamWorks Films will release three films, "Three Kings Fighting Two Aunts", "Wealth and Nobility", and "Rouge Button" in the Lunar New Year file.
Among them, "Three Kings Fighting Two Aunts" followed by "Captain America" was screened at the DreamWorks Cinemas (Xiangjiang Cinemas), "Rich and Rich" was screened at Debao Cinemas, and "Rouge" was screened at Liberty Cinemas. Linked to the whole line.
This time, Golden Harvest and New Art City did not choose to avoid the war, nor could they choose to avoid the war—after all, the Lunar New Year holiday is the biggest time of the year. If they also avoid this biggest time, then Golden Harvest and New Art City simply It's time to close.
Golden Harvest released "Flying Dragon" directed by Hong Jinbao and Yuan Kui, starring Hong Jinbao, Cheng Long, and Yuan Biao. Pass.
New Art City will screen the family comedy "Eight Stars Announcement" starring Zhou Runfa, Zheng Yuling, Zhang Xueyou, Yuan Jieying, Huang Baiming, Feng Baobao, Zhong Chuhong, Huang Kunxuan, directed by Du Qifeng, the producer of Huang Baiming.
In addition, Yindu also participated in the battle this time, and "The Last Eunuch of China" directed by Zhang Zhiliang and starring Mo Shaocong and Andy Lau was released.
As soon as the New Year's Eve kicked off, the one that was riding the dust became "Three Kings Fighting Two Aunts" starring Zhou Runfa, Cheng Long, Zhou Xingchi, Zhong Chuhong, Lan Jieying, and Qiu Shuzhen directed by Wang Jing.
Honestly--
Wang Jing's movie really doesn't have too deep meaning-this "Three Kings Fighting Two Aunts" is simply an upgraded version of "Chasing Girls".
But the difference is that the cast of "Three Kings Fighting Two Aunts" is really not generally strong-in addition to the six leading actors Zhou Runfa, Cheng Long, Zhou Xingchi, Zhong Chuhong, Lan Jieying, and Qiu Shuzhen, Wang Jing also invited a lot. Famous actors made guest appearances, which led to nearly 70 million Hong Kong dollars spent on the actors' remuneration alone.
Moreover, Wang Jing really worked his life out - he not only came up with a lot of jokes and burdens, but also took the crew to many places in the Mainland, Japan, and Singapore to shoot scenes.
In addition, the king does not touch the king, and the queen does not see him. When Zhou Runfa, Cheng Long, Zhou Xingchi, Zhong Chuhong, and Lan Jieying meet together, they can't help but do their best to fear that their aura will be suppressed by the opponent's aura.
In addition, there is also a weird Qiu Shuzhen interspersed in it.
To say it outright, "Three Kings Fighting Two Aunts" is by no means an interesting Hong Kong film.
but--
Although the performance of "Three Kings Fighting Shuanggu" is unmatched in the Lunar New Year file, it does not mean that "Three Kings Fighting Shuanggu" is the only show in the Lunar New Year file - "Eight Stars Announcement", "Flying Dragon Warrior", "Wealth and Nobility" and other films The momentum of the film is also very strong, even "Rouge Button" and "The Last Eunuch of China" also performed well.
...
Just when the outside world was amazed by the outstanding box office performance of the Christmas and Lunar New Year films, Xu Cun, who had been busy for a whole year in 1987, entered the rest period ahead of schedule, and brought his big family in early January People and their staff, maids, doctors, and bodyguards went to Musha Island for vacation to enjoy the blessings of everyone...
