Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1991 The Movie of Bad Fortune

After Wang Jing and Wen Jun greeted Lin Daoqiu, they went to sit down.

"What did you guys seem to be talking about when you were at the door just now?"

When Gao Zhisen heard Lin Daoqiu's question, he immediately explained it briefly to Lin Daoqiu.

"Everyone was just talking about the champion of this year's Spring Festival, if there is no accident, it should be "The Legend of Wesley", but from the news I got, it seems that this is not the case."

Gao Zhisen's words immediately caught the attention of the others present.

It is obviously hard for people to believe that a special effects movie that cost 6000 million yuan is not as good as three low-cost movies.

But judging from the news Gao Zhisen got, the drama "Legend of Wesley" doesn't seem to be so popular with the audience.

In other words, the word-of-mouth of this drama is not as good as everyone imagined at the beginning.

"According to my friends who have seen this movie, the special effects and plot of "Legend of Wesley" seem to be very ordinary."

generally?Gao Zhisen's words put a big question mark on the heads of many people at the scene.

Is it possible that the special effects movie that Golden Harvest has invested huge sums of money in is about to collapse this year?But is it possible?

"Even if "Legend of Wesley" is average, it is still different from ordinary movies, right?"

Huang Baiming didn't think "Legend of Wesley" was really too bad to be the box office champion.

After all, in his opinion, the three films competing with "Legend of Wesley" are not competitive except "A Happy Event", and "God of Gamblers" and "Wealthy Man" are basically just here to accompany them.

"If "Legend of Wesley" is really not as good as expected, then this year's box office champion should probably be won by "A Happy Event"?"

Liu Zhenwei is the assistant director and screenwriter of "Wealthy Man", but he doesn't think "Wealthy Man" can perform well.

Because from the premiere of "Wealthy Man" until yesterday, Liu Zhenwei has been doing investigations.

Although attendance figures and other data have not yet been released, according to Liu Zhenwei's understanding in the past two days, the box office performance of "Rich and Rich" should be the worst among the four dramas.

So Liu Zhenwei thinks that this year's Spring Festival, their drama should finally get a No.4 result.

After Liu Zhenwei finished speaking, Xu Guanwen didn't even say a word from the beginning to the end, because he didn't like to predict these things.

But one thing Xu Guanwen can be sure of is that he has heard a lot about "Happy Family" in the past two days. So far, the attendance rate and word-of-mouth are very good, so the final box office will definitely not be too bad.

"Brother Qiu, what kind of results do you think "Legend of Wesley" can achieve this year?"

Zheng Danrui was a little curious about this matter, so he took the initiative to ask Lin Daoqiu for advice on this matter.

"You'll find out later."

Lin Daoqiu didn't intend to answer in detail. It seemed that he didn't want to talk about "Legend of Wesley".

Zheng Danrui knew that he had asked the wrong question as soon as he heard it, so he quickly stopped and did not continue talking.

After a while, the box office statistics of the four films were officially released.

Fang Jinsheng, who returned to the conference room with the results, handed Lin Daoqiu the box office recording paper.

Lin Daoqiu picked up the paper and glanced at it briefly, but there was no change in his expression at all, as if what he was looking at was just a blank piece of paper.

The people below were anxiously waiting for Lin Daoqiu to announce the results, because everyone wanted to know how the results of the first day of their film would be.

"'A Happy Family' won the box office championship on the first day with a box office of 730 million, followed closely by..."

Hearing this, the corners of Xu Guanwen's mouth rose slightly. Unexpectedly, the first-day box office of the movie "Happy Family" actually reached 730 million. This is already the best first-day box office in his film career.

And when everyone heard that "Happy Family" got 730 million yuan on the first day, they all showed surprised expressions.

Because this proves that what Gao Zhisen said just now is not wrong, "The Legend of Wesley" did not show what everyone expected of him.

Just when everyone thought that "Legend of Wesley" should win the No.2 score, Lin Daoqiu's next words can be said to have really scared many people present.

“《赌神》以620万的成绩排在No.2，《卫斯理传奇》拿下了570万排在第三，No.4《富贵逼人》也有330万的票房。”

On the first day of the Spring Festival this year, the box office results of 2000 and 50 million broke out, which can already be said to be a very good box office record.

And when they heard that "God of Gamblers" got a score of 620 million, the first reaction of Wang Jing, Wen Jun and Zheng Danrui was to be stunned, and it took a while for them to show ecstatic expressions.

Because this means that they have not been truly declared to be executed, and they still have a chance to win a box office score of 6000 million.

As long as the decline in the next two weeks is not too large, I believe that "God of Gamblers" has a chance to win the box office of 6000 million. Of course, this is only a possibility now, but the probability of success is still very low.

"I just talked about the "Legend of Wesley". Now that the box office on the first day is out, I will simply say a few words."

Lin Daoqiu did not answer Zheng Danrui's question just now, but now he can talk to everyone about why the box office of "Legend of Wesley" is not as good as expected.

""Legend of Wesley" was released after "1992", so when you watch it, you will inevitably compare it with "1992". After a comparison, there will be a gap..."

"If the quality is decent, it's okay, but if the special effects and plot are not good, then the box office will not be much better for them."

What Lin Daoqiu said was a little tactful, but everyone could more or less understand what he wanted to say.

In the final analysis, "Wesley Legend" should not be released after "1992", and the quality of this movie may not be that good.

Because of these two unfavorable factors, the box office of "Legend of Wesley" is not going up. If you look at it this way, I am afraid that the box office of the next movie may not be much better.

Zou Wenhuai probably never expected that the big special effects movie that spent a lot of money would end up like this in the end.

Under the circumstances that Xiangjiang's box office is not satisfactory, it is obviously a dream to expect how much profit Maibu can bring back for them.

If the box office of "Legend of Wesley" is less than 3000 million in the end, then Zou Wenhuai will probably lose tens of millions this time.

Originally filming "Legend of Wesley" was to let everyone know that Golden Harvest has not fallen, but the result seems to be a bit unsatisfactory.
