Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1068

"Kung Fu Queen Arrives! "

"Lin, the best female action star of this era!"

News of the upcoming release of "Tomb Raider" began to spread throughout North America, and Lin Qingxia, the heroine of this movie, was naturally the focus of everyone's attention, even more popular than Lin Daoqiu.

Since Lin Daoqiu filmed "The Mummy" in 1982, Brigitte Lin has not appeared in Hollywood movies for more than a year.

But even so, her performance in "Mission Impossible" and "The Mummy" still made many people remember this beautiful woman with an oriental face.

And with the continuous intensive expansion of the advertising campaign, the movie "Tomb Raider" has become known to more people.

Universal Pictures, like last time, has prepared a screen of [-] yuan for the movie "Tomb Raider".

As long as it can win a good box office, it will be easier for Langmeyer to persuade partners to provide more screens for "Tomb Raider".

However, Langmeyer believes that with the fame of Lin Daoqiu and Lin Qingxia, coupled with the high quality of the movie "Tomb Raider", the box office of this movie in North America will be at least [-] million US dollars.

In addition to being released in North America, this movie will also be shown in mainstream movie markets around the world. With the income from videotapes and other peripherals, Langmeyer is very optimistic about the income that "Tomb Raider" will bring them. .

On the day that "Tomb Raider" was released, Universal Pictures held a very concise premiere for the film.

Getting out of the extended Lincoln, Lin Daoqiu in a suit stood beside him. The next moment, Brigitte Lin in a white noble evening dress and long skirt stepped out of the car.

As soon as she got out of the car, she immediately became the focus of attention of reporters and movie fans.

"Lin... Lin..."

As soon as Brigitte Lin got off the car, the fans beside her were all shouting her name frantically.

Brigitte Lin held Lin Daoqiu's arm, smiled and waved to the fans next to her cordially.

"Looks like you're really popular in Hollywood."

Lin Daoqiu chatted with Brigitte Lin while walking.

"Of course, I have suffered so much. It is only right to be famous. Don't you agree?"

"Submit, of course, you deserve all of these, and whoever dares to disobey me will be the first to agree."

Lin Daoqiu's words are not joking. From "Mission Impossible" to "The Mummy" and now "Tomb Raider", only "The Mummy" Brigitte Lin is a little more relaxed.

But "Mission Impossible" and "Tomb Raider", both of which are her protagonists.

In addition to receiving high-intensity training before filming, Lin Qingxia suffered the most during filming, so she can achieve today's achievements, in addition to the opportunities provided by Lin Daoqiu, it is also because Lin Qingxia is willing to endure hardships .

If it were another female star in a literary film, and she was allowed to suffer such hardships, perhaps some of them would choose to quit.

If it was Guan Zhilin, I am afraid that she would not be able to survive the first day, and she would give up immediately.

"You have a conscience."

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's answer, Lin Qingxia's smile became stronger.

In fact, she didn't know why she agreed to Lin Daoqiu's transformation in the first place, maybe it was because the other party's temptation was too strong.

If she came again, knowing that she would suffer so much, Brigitte Lin felt that she might not agree so simply as before.

After entering the theater, Langmeyer and Colero had been waiting inside for a long time.

As soon as they saw Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin walking in, they immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"Miss Lin, you are so beautiful tonight, I bet you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."

When Langmeyer saw Brigitte Lin, he flattered her.

But Lin Daoqiu next to him replied with a smile.

"I'm worried that my wife will be jealous when she hears this, so I think it's better to change it to one of the most beautiful women."

Lang Meyer was stunned for a moment. In fact, he was just talking politely. He didn't expect Lin Daoqiu to correct him.

"Mr. Lin really likes to joke. I believe that if my wife is present, she will agree with what I said."

Left and right are just a polite remark, Lang Mayer and Lin Daoqiu did not continue to extend this topic.

"Three thousand and five hundred yuan screens, as long as there is a good momentum, the number of screens will definitely double by then."

At this time, the number of screens in Hollywood is about 2 yuan, and the maximum number of screens that Universal Pictures can mobilize is a little more than 6000 yuan.

If "Tomb Raider" performs well by then, Universal Pictures will give up all the screens to supply "Tomb Raider", but only if "Tomb Raider" has a good performance.

"I look forward to that day coming as soon as possible."

Lin Daoqiu didn't say anything, but if the number of screens can be increased earlier, the box office revenue of "Tomb Raider" will also become more.

Accompanying Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin to the seats and sat down, other spectators also entered the arena one after another.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the premiere of "Tomb Raider" officially started, the lights in the theater gradually dimmed, and pictures began to appear on the big screen.

For this film, both Langmeyer and Colero have a high evaluation. After all, the action scenes, mysterious underground palace, and dazzling special effects are all of the highest level today.

If such a movie doesn't sell well, then Langmeyer and Colero may have to doubt their own vision.

Audiences who have never watched "Tomb Raider" came for the names of Lin Daoqiu and Brigitte Lin.

Except for watching some clips of "Tomb Raider" on TV, everyone actually doesn't know what the plot of "Tomb Raider" is.

As the plot slowly progressed, everyone gradually realized that the heroine's adoptive father was actually related to the death of her parents.

Then came the wonderful action scenes, as well as the shootout scenes, which were dazzling to watch.

In the end, when the plot came to the underground palace, most of the audience at the scene had the same thoughts as Langmeyer and Colero.

Could it be that "Tomb Raider" was filmed in an underground royal tomb in Thailand, otherwise how could this underground palace be so realistic?

"My God, is this the underground royal tomb in Thailand?"

Some viewers couldn't help but let out such exclamations.

And when he finished speaking, the audience next to him nodded in agreement.

"If this place really exists, I want to buy a plane ticket and fly there tomorrow to take a look at this mysterious underground palace."

Compared with the plot, it is obvious that this fake underground palace is more attractive to these audiences.

Lin Daoqiu looked very happy to hear people discussing this, because it meant that the efforts of Dykstra and Shaw Brothers' set builders were not in vain.
