Chapter 251 Strong rise? Usurp or surpass?
Mr. He Guanchang still watched the filming well, and the audience's reaction was also good. In addition, Chen Jin, the so-called "40 million" Mr. was there, he only said 40 million. If not, he would have been very satisfied with 30 million.
As we all know, Chen Jin has made four movies, of which the two films of "The Legend of 500 Million Detective Raylo" have a total of more than 100 million. This is something that everyone is talking about happily until now.
And the worst "Dancing with the Dragon" also has a good result of more than 38 million. This film, according to the estimates of bricklayers and film critics, such a general plot, except for Chen Jin, will not exceed 30 million.
Because of this, many people say that Chen Jin is Mr. "40 million". That is to say, if he joins in a very ordinary movie, basically 40 million is appropriate. This is why many people look for Chen Jin, and Brother Qiang doesn't want to invest after hearing that "Farewell My Concubine" does not have Chen Jin's participation.
The most important point is that there are too many movies now, and the competition is too fierce. It can be said that three or four films will be released in a week, and the top and bottom are crowded together to grab business. There are more than a dozen competing movies in the schedule. This kind of update frequency is too fast, and it is easy to divert the box office. .
You know, many people go to the cinema to watch one, but only once a week. Think about it, after watching you, he will have no chance. This is not a meal, and it is necessary to have three meals a day.
Take this time as an example, the day before "Spicy Hand Detective" was released "Struant Dragon 2", which is a very appealing film of Xing Ye, followed by "Huang Feihong's Man Be Self-improvement", which is also a classic sequel, which also has great appeal, such as "King of Power", "Five Blessings" There are also a lot of small productions such as Star and Ghost, Accompany Me, etc., and they all have a part of the loyal audience.
From this point of view, it can also explain why some people can't take the play. After increasing the price, some people still flock to it. There is nothing they can do, just that some people pay to watch his play, and some people even save money for a long time to see him.
At present, "Spicy Hand Detective" is the best, because the attendance rate of more than a dozen theaters in Hong Kong was 100% at the time of its premiere at midnight, while yesterday's "Struant Dragon 2" was only 16%. Even when Master Xing came to support today, he beat Chen Jin and said with a smile that it was their film. Zi robbed his audience and made his seats full yesterday.
As for the release of "Huang Feihong's Men Be Self-improvement" released the day after tomorrow, although it also has a certain appeal, according to estimates, the attendance rate is less than 85%.
Generally speaking, the box office of movies that are full at zero o'clock is generally 40 million, which is also the first reason why He Guanchang is sure. Moreover, another advantage of zero-point full is that he still has a lot of room for explosion, and those who are dissatisfied will soon decline.
Let's compare "Hot Hand Detective" and "Huang Feihong's Man as Self-improvement". The attendance rate of the former is 100%, and the latter is 85%. The box office of the former may be as high as more than 40 million, while the latter's ability to reach 30 million is already a surprising result. This is another explanation for winning at the starting line. .
Of course, there are special cases. The most famous is probably the movie "Titanic" by Jack and Rouxi. Everyone knows that both the attendance and the number of theaters at the beginning are very poor.
The next day, before the trend of "truant Weilong" passed, he began to fry "Spicy Hand Detective". He Zidong of "Oriental Daily" will naturally not be willing to be behind. You should know that he is Chen Jin's best fan.
"The King's Victory" - the headline on the front page of Oriental Daily. The picture uses half of the poster of "Spicy Hand Detective", that is, Chen Jin wears a priest's uniform, holding the Bible in his hand, and looks at the fan in front of him with a smile, and the photo of Brother Fa has been lost to PS.
I have thought about the title for a long time, such as "The Twins", "The King's Style", "Dark War (related to the drama of two movie bosses)," or "Who's Victory" and so on. But in the end, I boldly used the title "The King's Victory". The tone was very certain, not arrogant, only It's a simple way to tell everyone what just happened.
As far as I know, about half a year ago, when the film was about to start shooting, King Chen was not the protagonist of the play. His role was basically confirmed, but Brother Fa thought of King Chen at this time.
Everyone must be very clear about the relationship between Brother Fa and King Chen. When Brother Fa put forward this opinion, Mr. He Guanchang, as the boss of the investor, agreed without hesitation. But at this time, there is a problem. The remaining role is the second protagonist. If it sounds worse, it is the first male supporting role, from the script. The same is true for the plot.
The script itself is not very good, and it is still the second supporting role. King Chen is famous for his play. At that time, King Chen was already famous, and there were many reasons that everyone did not have much confidence.
At this time, Brother Fa offered to change the script to increase the role of King Chen's current role, and he came to King Chen in person to talk about the cooperative performance.
Insider, the real insider, otherwise who would know the details of the two-person negotiation this time? Of course, I can't say more, otherwise I can't tell you more inside stories next time. What I can tell you is that King Chen promised Brother Fa with little consideration at that time, and then the two stayed for ten minutes and separated. Yes.
It's not that we break up unhappily, or we are separated without speculation, but that we have a tacit understanding and cherish each other to do our own affairs. We are waiting for yesterday's success.
It turns out that this is a very successful performance of Brother Fa and King Chen. To be fair, this is not a movie that wins with a script and expression, but his simple but exciting plot is enough to make you worth the ticket price.
This is a typical Wu Yusen-style film. The aesthetics of violence is played vividly in this film. Even because of the addition of King Chen, he has gone further in this regard and has a more exciting sensory experience!
It's not that I'm blowing water or something, but I got an affirmative praise from director Wu Yusen yesterday. The audience who went to the cinema will also agree with me. King Chen really performed very well, not how good his expression performance is, because this play doesn't need too much at all, except for the opening scene. He is playing with his handsomeness and ** again.
At other times, he is showing his outstanding skills. I have no doubt that he is much better than the real special policemen of the Flying Tigers. Just look at his easy movements.
That's right, it's easy and smooth. That's why I want to say that the aesthetics of violence is more vivid. The so-called aesthetics of violence needs a smoother and beautiful connection. In all the previous shooting, everyone's skills like King Chen need to be carefully carved without a shot. Behind the carving, the natural and beautiful things are lost.
Forgive me, we can compare the performances of King Chen and Brother Fa in the movie. If you watch it, you will feel that King Chen's movements are more chic and smooth, and Brother Fa is obviously a little worse.
However, this is not the reason why I used the title "King's Victory". I don't want to take the opportunity to step on Brother Fa and praise King Chen or something. First, King Chen doesn't need me to praise it. Second, I'm not qualified to step on Brother Fa, and I dare not!
The king's victory I mentioned includes three points. First, in the case of a good script, King Chen fully shows his most important aspect - his "King of Kung Fu"'s superb skills. For this reason, he not only perfectly shows the other side that is different from the four films shot before, but also adds color to the film. A lot.
From this, we can also see the vision and standards of King Chen's film. He won't take it unless the style he has made before is a good script. This time, although he looks like a supporting role, he did not hesitate to take it, because he can really give full play to his other talent and learn more from it. Learning and progress.
Some people say that he plays tricks. What I want to say is that they don't understand King Chen's idea at all. Maybe I can boldly say that they are actually too stupid, and King Chen is obviously very smart to know what his goal is.
As an digression, King Chen's newly released Mandarin album is full of obvious R&B style, which is a change for him. He is trying more different styles and has been trying hard to make progress, instead of being complacent with his current impressive achievements. This, from The side shows that he understands what his goal is.
The second victory: His excellent performance did not disappoint Brother Fa, who invited him, and Mr. He Guanchang and director Wu Yusen, who were no investors, were disappointed. Let's not talk about the performance of King Chen and Brother Fa, but we all understand that Brother Fa invited King Chen to join such a brand-new style of film. And King Chen also showed himself perfectly, which is a victory of friendship between the two sides, and also a victory of this film!
In the end, King Chen did not disappoint the audience who had always supported him. His performance in the film was excellent enough to let everyone see another style, but still cool and dazzling King Chen. Like King Chen, this is also a new experience for the audience. It is very happy, amazing and appreciated!
Here, I have to say that some people say that he deliberately raised the salary. According to the analysis, according to the current results, it will be very easy for "Hot Hand Detective" to have a box office of more than 40 million. So, why does our "40 million" be polite to you?
To say a cold word, sir, if you don't have a good script and don't have money, what are you talking about here? Your mentality of not being able to eat grapes and sour is really chilling!
OK, it's finally the end. It's really not a human thing to start work at two o'clock in the morning, but considering that King Chen is not celebrating victory now, but working in the same way, I may be able to balance my mind. Unfortunately, my labor is too low. Otherwise, I will also talk to the boss to raise my salary. Something about water?
Well, I've said a lot. Finally, whether you like King Chen or not, I recommend you to watch "Spicy Hand Detective". This is really a good film.
He Zidong is quite polite. His relationship with Chen Jin also determines that he is not suitable for the possibility of attacking certain topics too sharply. People are sinister, and no one may say that it was deliberately instructed by Chen Jin.
And Ke Fan is different. As long as the reader likes it, he dares to write, and it is absolutely great, so that everyone can't put it down.
The next day, there were too many comments about Brother Fa and Chen Jin in newspapers and magazines, and the titles were similar. The statements related to Shuangxiong were more common, but Ke Fan's was different. The title he used was "Strong? Usurp or surpass?
--Perhaps, there is a certain number in the dark. A few years ago, Brother Fa established his position as a Jianghu boss with "The Color of Heroes". At that time, it was also the beginning of director Wu Yusen's success, and this time, Brother Fa took the initiative to find King Chen.
In "Hero's Color", the acting skills are secondary. What is wonderful is the gun battlefield at that time, and in "Hot Hand Detective", the plot is even worse, but it is also its four gun battlefields that are excellent. Perhaps the clip of King Chen killing with the Bible is a classic.
King Chen, who accidentally joined, gave people enough surprises, but it was all surprises. Not to mention the acting skills, in terms of the performance of the gun battlefield alone, I can say without hesitation that King Chen Wansheng also provided more highlights for the highlights of the film. Director Wu Yusen said in an interview yesterday. The second small breakthrough gave him more insights.
Brother Fa, who sat in the position of the boss by "The Color of the Hero", has always been his master's ability and his stubborn territory. However, this time, he was defeated and had nothing to say, and this can probably be regarded as a sign of King Chen's strong rise to power, and even, to put it violently, this is He began to usurp the beginning of the territory.
Perhaps, Brother Fa has realized the rise of King Chen in advance, and inviting him to participate in "Spicy Hand Detective" itself is a very tacit handover ceremony. It is not that he is old and outdated, but in front of King Chen, their competitiveness is not as good as before.
The first step has been successfully stepped out. Next, let's look at the other two. As we all know, King Chen's next movie "The Deer and the Cauldron" is the nonsense style of Xing Ye. Even the director is Wang Jing, who cooperates with Xing Ye. So, can we think that this is King Chen sending to another boss? What about the challenge?
Please wait and see, beyond the ongoing time!
