Chapter 140: Stone Box Office

“The best comedy in the mainland is born!”

This is a headline article published in the film and television section of the”Huaguo Literature and Art Newspaper”. The title alone has already explained the attitude of film critics towards the movie”Crazy Stone”

“My description is not exaggerating”

“Although the director named Ning Hao is still a newcomer, although the cast of this film is not gorgeous, and although the investment of this film is less than 5 million, not even a fraction of the publicity cost of”October Besieged City”, the most surprising thing about this film is the actor who plays the international thief Mike, Li Qi”

“2009 will definitely be remembered for Li Qi…”

“In fact, this saying has been circulating in the circle for a long time, but no one has taken it too seriously until”Crazy Stone” came out, and everyone finally paid attention to this young actor.”

“Looking back at Li Qi’s roles, most of them were very far from life, such as the Eighth Prince who wanted to sit on the throne, and the Erlang Shen Yang Jian who endured humiliation and had a treacherous heart.”

“But Thief Mai 05g is different!”

“Although the title of International Thief is full of gimmicks, when we learned that Li Qi played this role in the movie, our first reaction should be that Li Qi is still the same, still playing such a role that sounds awesome.……”

“With this idea in mind, after watching”Crazy Stone”, you will see the thief Mike played by Li Qi being played around by several local thieves in the movie, you will see him getting stuck on the beam and unable to get out, you will see him being embarrassed because the rope broke by one meter when he was stealing jadeite, you will see him killing the bald man played by Xu Shanzheng with his agile skills, and then you will realize that this is his boss……”

“You will burst out laughing”

“You will say, I’m gonna give you a lung”

“I believe that by now you have realized that he has not disappointed you, and has more sophisticated acting skills and more comprehensive abilities.”

“It turns out he can also act in comedies?”

“A friend of mine did some boring statistics.”

“When he watched”Crazy Stone”, the audience laughed more than 60 times, of which nearly 30 times were because of Mike. This somewhat ridiculous data may explain something.”

“Thanks Li Qi”

“Because of his existence, I understand that mainland actors are not hopeless. We have our trump cards. He is not as good as Hong Kong’s two Zhou Yicheng and Yicheng, or those first-line or even super-first-line superstars, but his potential is unlimited. In my heart, he is one of the most promising representative actors in the mainland!”

“Also, I want to say……”

“Thanks to”Crazy Stone”, mainland films have retained some face. In terms of box office, it may not be as good as”October Besieged”, but in terms of the film’s market return rate, I believe this movie is the real surprise of the Lunar New Year period. This is a movie that focuses on comedy rather than preaching. It is also a low-cost big-cast movie that officially announced Li Qi’s entry into the film industry!”

“……”

Film critics usually praise movies, directors or actors in a subtle and restrained way, but this article used a lot of eulogistic and gorgeous words to describe Li Qi’s performance, but no one thought it was inappropriate.

Even this is definitely not an isolated case.

In addition to the”Huaguo Literature and Art Newspaper”, a large number of media news in the mainland have praised”Crazy Stone” and the performances of the actors in the play in a similar way, so that no matter how many words are piled up to praise it, it will not seem too abrupt.

Although this is only the first week of the Lunar New Year holiday

No one doubts that”Crazy Stone” will achieve a stunning comeback, just as no one denies that Li Qi’s return is gorgeous. Whether it is his performance in the movie or his aura as an independent film investor, his existence cannot be ignored by anyone!

“Li Qi’s new movie is a big hit!”

“《”Crazy Stone” made a comeback at the box office in the first week, aiming at the Lunar New Year box office!”

“The low-budget movie”Crazy Stone” is a big hit!”

“A carnival of many talented actors and the birth of a talented director.”Crazy Stone” surpasses”Three Shots Surprise” and may become a textbook-level counterattack case of low-budget movies!”

“……”(To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

It is not just the critics who sing praises, but also the major media behind the critics, as well as the magazines that are the first to transfer the popularity in order to attract attention.

Of course

Li Qi is not the only one who is praised

Other actors and even the director who performed equally well in this film have also recently become the focus of film critics, as can be seen from the content of these reviews. However, because Li Qi’s role and his identity as a film investor are too special, he has undoubtedly become the most prominent one after the film became a hit.

Because of the movie”Crazy Stone”, Li Qi once again became the absolute focus of this circle![]

Li Qi breathed a sigh of relief

In fact, Li Qi had a question mark in his mind as to whether”Crazy Stone” could make a comeback, because the low attendance on the first day was indeed a bit disappointing. However, the box office trend in the next few days gave Li Qi a lot of confidence. When the box office successfully earned 46 million in the first week, Li Qi knew that they had won the bet!

Also in a hymn

The second week of the Lunar New Year holiday has arrived, and”Crazy Stone” has received more screenings as expected, and has also received higher box office as expected. People in the industry who have been following this movie have watched the single-day box office of this movie continue to rise!

11 million……

12 million……

One thousand three hundred and fifty……

13.8 million……

On the second weekend of 770, the latest statistics came out.”Crazy Stone” won more than 72 million box office in a crushing manner, and the total box office accumulated 118 million. From then on, no movie can stop the rise and counterattack of this movie!

Including”October Besieged City”》

Chen Kexing, who was staying in a hotel in the mainland, suddenly fell silent when he saw”Crazy Stone”. Although he didn’t want to admit it, the single-day box office of this movie even made him feel a little pressure. He suddenly felt a bit amused.

He always thought……

My opponent is”Three Guns Surprise”》

After defeating”Three Shots Surprise”, he thought that he had no rivals in this Lunar New Year period. Who knew that”Crazy Stone” would appear halfway. Although the data of this movie could not threaten”October Besieged City”, we must know that the measurement standards of the two movies are different.——

There is even a world of difference!

In order to ensure the success of”October Besieged City”, the funds spent on filming and promotion of this movie were calculated in the tens of millions. As for”Crazy Stone”, if it were not for the facts in front of him, Chen Kexing really found it hard to believe that this was a low-budget comedy movie with an investment cost of only 5 million. Although the total cost was only a little over 10 million, including the subsequent distribution and promotion costs.
