Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 147 Fierce box office competition
Su's house.

Uncle Wu walked into Su Cheng's study and said in a low voice, "Master, are you going to Mr. Dong's funeral?"

After waving his hands, Su Cheng said, "I have to ask Uncle Wu to help me with this matter."

"Okay, then I'll go!"

After Uncle Wu left, Su Chengjing sat there lost in thought.Some time ago, Dong Haoyun, known as one of the "Seven Great Ship Kings in the World", passed away due to illness.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Su Cheng.But Wu Guangzheng called and asked the representatives of the Su family to come over.

First of all, this Dong Haoyun is the second Xiangjiang native after Bao Yugang among the world's seven ship magnates.Great reputation.Second, he himself is of the pro-inland faction.He is still holding public office in Xiangjiang.

After Dong Haoyun's sudden death, his son Dong Jianhua inherited his father's behest.If it weren't for this, their family's Orient Offshore Group would not have received funding from "model worker businessman" Huo Yingdong.

Although the Falklands War has not yet subsided, there is already a trend of "standing in the vanguard".In addition, Su Cheng founded an entertainment company, and having a relationship with the mainland, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.Not to mention the things that were targeted by the two major banks at the beginning.

Who made the inland area be communism, while Xiangjiang is close to "capitalism"!Without the support of the backstage, how long can the Pan family and the Li family be crazy?

Just go!Su Cheng didn't have any psychological burden.Even this incident had little effect on him.

……

On the third day after "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" was broadcast, Tengyue Cinemas and Golden Harvest Cinemas jointly screened the movie "Detective Chocolate" produced by Tengyue.At this time, Yindu Organization also completed the sequel "Shaolin Boy" to "Shaolin Temple".

Still cooperating with Tengyue Cinemas for screenings.

Since there was no TV series with high ratings this time, the momentum immediately overwhelmed "Detective Chocolate".

In just five days, it set a super high box office of 873 million Hong Kong dollars.

As a result, even though the film "Detective Chocolate" was starring Wu Mengda, it only accumulated a box office of 1264 million Hong Kong dollars.If you don't think of a way, I'm afraid it will be extremely dangerous to break the expected box office of 2000 million Hong Kong dollars.

At this time, New Art City led by Huang Baiming, worked out a movie called "The Great Reunion".Once it was released, the single-day box office surpassed "Detective Chocolate" and "Shaolin Kid" in an instant.In three days, it raked in 524 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office.The momentum hasn't dropped a bit.

Three film companies are competing, making the box office market even more weird and difficult to distinguish.

Before "The Great Reunion" continued to exert its strength, Xiang Huaqiang also came to intervene. After only one day of publicity, the "Young and Dangerous" written by Su Cheng was screened in theaters.

Because of this kind of pure black film, it rarely appears in the Hong Kong film market, and there are a large number of people.Influence with Xin Ngee Ann.On the premiere day alone, the box office reached 153 million Hong Kong dollars crazily.

In one fell swoop, it broke the record for the highest premiere box office in Xiangjiang!
By the second day, the box office jumped to 216 million Hong Kong dollars.As a result, "Young and Dangerous" broke the highest single-day box office record in Xiangjiang.

Four films, one is better than the other.But the film market is so big, there must be highs and lows!

On the fifth day of the release of "Young and Dangerous", "Detective Chocolate" was the first to be drawn, and the box office only accumulated to 5 million Hong Kong dollars.In another three days, "Shaolin Boy" also went down, and the box office reached 1715 million Hong Kong dollars.

With the withdrawal of these two powerful films, the box office of "Happy Reunion" and "Young and Dangerous" did not drop because of this, on the contrary, there is a slight upward trend.

It made everyone unable to understand the fluctuations in the box office market this time.

During this period of time, Tengyue Entertainment did not continue to release the second film, and Golden Harvest, Shaw Brothers, and even other film companies temporarily stopped.Waiting for all these films to be downloaded, their films will be released.Otherwise, it will be cannon fodder when it is released.

More than worth the loss!
While several film companies on the Xiangjiang side were scrambling to grab it first, on the Hollywood side, "Shaolin Temple" had already been released, with a cumulative box office of 2315 million US dollars in North America.

And the "The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" jointly produced by Tengyue, Golden Harvest, and Dingsheng was also released. Due to the continuous expansion of Tengyue theaters, the box office of this film's premiere surged again, reaching 1418 million US dollars.

By the next day, it rose again, reaching 2058 million US dollars.

However, from the third day onwards, the box office has been declining, only 1747 million US dollars.In the past week, only 7362 million US dollars have accumulated.It can be seen that the subsequent box office results are indeed not very satisfactory.

However, the cost of this film is not high, less than 800 million US dollars.After the box office is divided, it can be regarded as a big profit.

On Xiangjiang's side, Leung Ka Fai, the actor who filmed the movie "The Story of Hachiko", has not returned yet.Director Wang Jing who filmed "Home Alone" was the first to come back.

"Boss, long time no see!" Tengyue Entertainment Company, Su Cheng's office, he couldn't help smiling when he heard this.It's been a long time indeed.Have more than half a year!

Although "Home Alone" is a comedy, it looks well shot.But it is not so easy to direct a classic Hollywood film according to the script.It took Wang Jing a lot of time and effort to make this film meet Su Cheng's review.

It can be regarded as a Hollywood film he completed independently, which is amazing!With this experience, if I direct similar films in the future, it will not be like directing "Back to the Future" back then. At that time, the assistant director had to be in charge.

"What are you going to do next?" Su Cheng asked.

"Home Alone" is currently in post-production, and many tasks don't require Wang Jing to keep an eye on them all the time.Besides, if it is released, it will not be so early.At least, we have to wait until "Die Hard" is released.

Wang Jing smiled and said, "The two unfinished series will be filmed."

Hearing this, Su Cheng just remembered that there are many series left over from their Tengyue Entertainment Company, and they haven't been filmed yet!One is "Happy Ghost 3", the other is "Chasing Girls 2", the other is "Best Partner 2", and the other is "Five Lucky Stars 2", also known as "The Lucky Stars".The third is "Summer Lucky Star".

In addition to these four, there is also "Royal Senior Sister 2".

Back to the Future 2 in Hollywood.

And so on.

Thinking of this, Su Cheng said with a smile: "Since you want to shoot "Chasing Girls 2" and "Best Partner 2", let me inform you to finish shooting other series of films together. Especially "Happy Ghost 3" and "Best Partner 2". "Royal Senior Sister [-]" these two."

"Okay, boss!"
