Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 64 Too Inflated Confidence
"The best partner is hot, Lei Juekun celebrated the establishment of all the hosts at The Peninsula Hotel."
"This reporter interviewed Mecca, the owner of New Arts City. Mecca showed great confidence in his own film, and he said to break the 25 million record set by the God of Gamblers."
"God of Gamblers? That was the box office record two years ago, and it's time to be broken."
"God of Gamblers? That is not our goal, our goal is higher!"
"What, you said that the box office of Plan A has already surpassed that of Gamblers? So what? I firmly believe that the box office of the best partner will be higher and will create a new box office record."
Zhong Chuhong put the newspapers on the table for Qiao Feng to read. These newspapers included more than a dozen of Hong Kong’s most-selling newspapers, including Oriental Daily and Ming Pao, as well as several newspapers specializing in entertainment news. The interviewees also include Mecca, Huang Baiming, and Shi Tian. Anyway, there are a lot of the Big Three in New Art City, and there are a few actors. Others say they have confidence in the movie. Mecca was a little too confident and started directly with God of Gamblers and Plan A. The above are all what Mecca said in interviews on different occasions.
"What do you think of Qiao after seeing this?" Zhong Chuhong joked with a smile.
"Haha." Qiao Feng twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled disdainfully.
"Yeah, you don't take it seriously." Zhong Chuhong gave a white glance, then picked up another newspaper specially selected by his side and shook it and said: "This Sing Tao Daily published a report on Lei Juekun. Boss Lei’s exclusive interview, Boss Ren Lei can tell you that you are a good screenwriter, but you can’t do it for a long time in this industry, but Xinyicheng is different. All of them are talented. Being able to write, direct and act, learn from each other's strengths and complement each other's shortcomings, each movie has made great progress with each other, but you are going downhill. Except for the blockbuster God of Gamblers, the box office of the other movies is showing a downward trend.
"Oh, he is not afraid to flash his tongue when he speaks big words. Why doesn't he say that the box office of Plan A is now on par with the God of Gamblers, and the fact that surpassing the God of Gamblers is minutes." Qiao Feng sneered.
"How do you know that they didn't say it, they really said it? Boss Lei said that even if Project A surpassed the God of Gamblers, it was achieved through Cheng Long's star effect. He also said that this is more proof that your ability to create scripts is declining. , This time plan A is at best a glimpse." Zhong Chuhong said.
"He really said that?" Qiao Feng was a little unbelievable, thinking that Lei Juekun's head shouldn't be mentally retarded, right? The weather is going down, and I will go back. I will go. You say that the box office of my movie is more than 20 million. So you still haven't had a movie with more than 20 million yuan, so what words should you use to describe it?
"Yes, although the original words are a little bit euphemistic, they mean that." Zhong Chuhong nodded affirmatively.
"Let me go, those in Lei Juekun and New Art City are a little swollen, oh, no, they are a little too swollen." Qiao Feng gave an evaluation.
"Yes, but they also have the qualifications to inflate. Who made the plan A's box office drop significantly, and it will be painted in two days to make room for Master Long." Zhong Chuhong said helplessly.
As Zhong Chuhong said, New Art City and Golden Princess do have the qualifications to expand. Plan A is about to be drawn, and the biggest obstacle is gone. Now Hong Kong is talking about the best partner everywhere, and everyone’s first choice to go to the cinema is also The best partner, the newspaper also changes praise every day, although some say the plot is unreasonable, the performance is blunt and exaggerated, but it can't help everyone like it.
It’s true that the box office of Plan A is high, and it will definitely surpass God of Gamblers, but the best partner is not bad either. Although the box office of Plan A is a bit lower at 1.65 million on the first day than Plan A’s 1.8 million, it is not too low. And without the plan A, there will definitely be more in the future. Didn't the box office rise to 1.7 million the day before?
one more,
This is the conclusion reached by Golden Princess and Xinyicheng, and it is also the source of confidence that Lei Juekun and Mecca do not regard the God of Gamblers and the box office of Plan A in their eyes.
Because the box office trend is not bad, the release time is still half as long, so the box office of course should be higher.
Well, this calculation is indeed eligible for expansion, no problem.
Even Jiahe’s Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang, and Shaw’s Shaw Yifu, Fang Yihua all think so, let alone other people, everyone thinks that New Art City has taken the banner of the highest box office record in Hong Kong from Shaw Brothers and Qiao Feng. It's a certainty.
The newspapers also began to hype about this matter, talking about when the highest box office record will change owners.
Zhou Runfa, Zhao Yazhi, Liu Dehua, Liang Jiahui, Qi Meizhen, Li Saifeng, Li Lizhen and others who have a good relationship with Qiao Feng called to comfort him.
Qiao Feng couldn't laugh or cry, because he didn't think so, and he didn't think that the best partner would break the new record set by Plan A, and even the box office of God of Gamblers could not exceed.
Still the same sentence, no matter how it changes, the Hong Kong box office's plate is there. The plate is so big. As more people participate in sharing, everyone will naturally get less.
Plan A took the lead. Half a month before the release, it was a dominating scene, so the box office could rise so rapidly, but once there was a competition for the best partner, the box office of Plan A began to decline, and the rate was still large.
Is it the best partner's turn to be unaffected by this rule? It certainly will.
And because of the big box office explosion on Plan A, it consumed a lot of the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies, and the popularity will definitely decline later.
So don’t look at the best partner now so hot, the continuity of the heat is definitely not as good as the first plan A, not to mention that there will be three films like Master Long, Shaolin Temple and Eighteen Martial Arts on 1.21. When it was released at the same time, it competed with it for the audience and the box office.
On the 20th, the one-day screening was over, and Project A was officially drawn from all the cinemas of Jiahe. Its final box office was fixed at 26 million. It became a new Hong Kong box office with a box office score of one million higher than God of Gamblers’ 25.01 million. Movie box office record.
And just as Qiao Feng thought, the next day after the release of the three films, Master Long and Shaolin Temple, the number of viewers of the best partner was greatly reduced, causing the film’s 1.21 daily box office to drop 40% from the previous day. Ten thousand, only got 110, a drop of nearly 30%.
The people who were still preaching that the film would set a new box office record were momentarily stunned. Lei Juekun, who was uttering wild words, had a hot feeling of being beaten in the face.
