Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 182 Box Office, Word of Mouth
The gentleman has been in the theater for fifteen days, even if the attendance rate has fallen below the profit line, but Lei Juekun hasn't arranged to draw.
However, although she lost some money, the golden princess has a better reputation in the independent production company. Even if Lei Juekun supports the gentleman, it is because this film is produced by Yongjia Pictures, which has its own investment and accounts for the majority of it. of.
Who made the three mainstream cinemas in Hong Kong, the Golden Princess is the first to cancel the film underwriting, and is also the one with the least satellite company, leaving it to the independent production company to shoot the best schedule!
The gentleman has won a box office of 9.5 million in half a month. This is due to Ye Qianwen's release of the album of the same name at the end of the film’s release, which will soon fall to the bottom of the attendance rate. Back to the profit line.
After a brief burst of enthusiasm from the fans, when the attendance rate drops again, the gentleman Haoqiu has already reached the time to draw.
I looked at the box office of only six or seven million yuan, but the box office surged two or three million yuan because of the starring. It also proved that Yongjia Pictures spent 400,000 yuan in remuneration to invite Ye Qianwen to be a very wise decision, at least just The two or three million box office that he brought up with his popularity has proved that Ye Qianwen's 400,000 piece pay is worthwhile for this movie.
The gentleman is so good to draw. Happy Ghost will continue to be released during the summer vacation and harvesting the box office. When the box office of Happy Ghost exceeded 20 million and it will come to the end of the screening, Jiahe released a film. It is very lively and realistic, especially suitable for Hong Kong. The real situation faced.
This film is called Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldiers, directed by McDonald.
This movie quickly made a new gang term popular, that is, the big circle gang.
This is a gangster story about smugglers from the Mainland who came to Hong Kong to rob. During the Sino-British negotiations on the Hong Kong issue, Hong Kong’s future was still undecided. Hong Kong filmmakers produced some films reflecting Hong Kong. People’s anxiety in this area is the masterpiece of this provincial and Hong Kong flag soldier.
In the only film he personally directed, the theme of the era of robbery in Hong Kong by big circle boys was the theme. All non-professional actors at the time, including Lin Wei, Huang Jian, Jiang Long, etc., were used to play key roles, and they went to the mainland. Shooting some real scenes greatly increases the realism of the film.The fastest update of Apex novels emphasizes the military background of the big circle gang in the drama processing, so as to reflect their criminal motives that are incompatible with Hong Kong society and take risks.As for the plot of betrayal and betrayal between gangsters, the plot is also very wonderful.
The whole movie is a mess of realism. The battle at the Kowloon Walled City is really impressive. It can be said that it is the ancestor of many realistic Hong Kong-made gunfights in the future. The Kowloon Walled City street battle chase shot with a portable camera, gives full play to the exciting police and bandits. The atmosphere of the action movie will be shocked every day after ten or twenty years, let alone the Hong Kong audience at this time.
The screenwriter of this film is Chen Xingjian, who is also known as Chen Sir, because this man was a policeman before he stepped into the movie circle, and he was also a high-level police officer in Hong Kong, the Superintendent of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Hong Kong Police Force.
By coincidence, in 1975, Xiao Fangfang invited Chen Xingjian to participate in the script creation of the police film "Jumping Ashes", which was also Hong Kong's first gangster film, thus creating the genre of Hong Kong gangster films.
Chen Xingjian was a literary and artistic backbone when he was in school. The first Chinese pop band in Hong Kong was also formed by Chen Xingjian. He was also the lead singer and the band had also made records.
After working as a police officer, he did not give up his personal hobbies. He created and promoted the theme song "" for the "School Traffic Safety Team", appeared on TV and major radio stations, sang the song and called on students to pay attention to traffic safety. Known as the "Singing Inspector".
The dust jump was a big success, breaking through the box office of 1 million Hong Kong dollars in three days, setting multiple records for Hong Kong movies.
Chen Xingjian found out that he was not a police officer, and he could develop well in the entertainment industry. In addition, he especially likes to do art creation. After thinking about it, he has been smooth sailing. In ten years as a police officer, he has been promoted from a small police officer to chief inspector and then Superintendent, being a policeman is almost the same level.
Therefore, in 1976, Chen Xingjian quit his job as a police officer and devoted himself to the entertainment industry as an editor and consultant for criminal TV dramas. He also played a police officer or criminal policeman in the drama as an actor.
Because of his status as a senior police officer, Chen Xingjian has a natural advantage in the themes of police and criminals, so he created the script of the provincial and Hong Kong flag soldiers, which injects fresh vitality into the portrayal of the characters in the script, and makes the plot in the film more vivid. reality.
The director McDonald, who was originally a TV drama producer and producer of TV dramas, was able to compete with wireless for a while, and even forced wireless to go out of the market and deliberately disappear the protagonist of Tiancan. , All thanks to McDonald Bear.
After Li's television station was sold in 1981, McDonald opened a film production company to focus on film creation.
The first film to enter the film industry, "Beautiful Girl", the film won the 2nd Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Actress and Best Packaging; then he also produced the action film "Detective Bald Girl", McDonald Xiong ran around and took the film to Cannes, Milan and Asian Film Festivals. In the end, the film was bought by more than 80 places, bringing him more than 1 million Hong Kong dollars in revenue.
This man is an extremely capable film and television producer, but he is better known as McDonald's madness. His strong point lies in "doing fake dramas in real".
When filming beautiful girls, he really hired Xiaotaimei to be an actor, and when filming provincial and Hong Kong flag soldiers, he really hired a big circle boy to act as a robber, choosing from more than 300 mainland identities. Six people were selected, and then compared to the personality and language behavior of these six people, the team of directors spent several months adjusting the script, striving to achieve everyone acting themselves.
That's not even counted. When filming a scene where the police chased the robbers in a busy street, McDonald went straight to the filming without applying for the police department. Lin Wei and others ran across the street, being knocked down by a car and shooting indiscriminately. The shooting caused a panic among the citizens. They were all secretly filmed "real scenes". Everyone didn't know that it was a filming. Except for the actors, the expressions of everyone else were the most real expressions they should have after a gun battle.
Then the real police arrived naturally after receiving the call, but before the police arrived, McDonald had taken the necessary shots and withdrew, making the police rush out.
In the most thrilling scene, McDonnell told Shen Wei that he needed to tie him in the car. After Shen Wei agreed, he arranged to pour gasoline and light it on the outside. The whole car burned all at once. He didn't talk to Shen Wei about getting gasoline on the fire, and Shen Wei was frightened. When the scene was finished and the staff released Shen Wei, Shen Wei who was almost burnt by the fire immediately chased McDonald.
The happy ghost won the box office during the summer vacation. Even if the provincial and Hong Kong flag soldiers have just been released, the happy ghost is about to be drawn during the summer vacation, but the happy ghost is still holding the provincial and Hong Kong flag soldiers at the box office.
However, after the release of the provincial and Hong Kong flag soldiers, the word of mouth was full of happy ghosts for the summer vacation.
However, because it was too realistic and too violent, the audience of this film was naturally affected, and the content of the film was too dark. At this time, the people of Hong Kong just saw some light in the Sino-British negotiations, so they don’t want to see it so hopeless. The film.
As a result, the box office of the Provincial and Hong Kong Banner Soldiers, which is well-received, can only be considered okay.
