…In our traditional morality, Confucianism teaches women to obey men, an idea that has flowed in our blood."My Savage Girlfriend" does the opposite. The heroine Song Mingxi, played by Joey Wong, is an independent modern woman. She seems savage but actually weak inside...
……
In just a few days, "My Savage Girlfriend" has more than 200,000 viewers in Seoul.
And what about the movies made by our Korean directors themselves?
The highest-grossing "Jesus in Seoul", the total number of viewers in five days is less than 50,000, which is the gap between heaven and earth.
South Korea's "New Movie Movement" has been in operation for three years. There are only two or three works that are truly outstanding, and the box office is not very good.Korean directors should learn Hong Kong's film art, not blindly worship Europe and the United States, but should combine the cultural history and current situation of South Korea, so that they can shoot classic movies that belong to our own people...
"North Korean Movie Weekly"
The release of "My Savage Girlfriend" in South Korea can only be described as crazy. The capital Seoul alone has 200,000 viewers in less than a week.
You should know that Jackie Chan's "Dragon and Tiger Fight" was released in South Korea half a year ago, the total number of viewers in Seoul was only over 200,000.
Today, the most famous Hong Kong influences in South Korea are Chow Yun-fat, Jackie Chan, Leslie Cheung, Cherie Chung, Joey Wong and Lee Sai-feng.
Among them, Jackie Chan has the highest cumulative number of movie viewers, but the greatest commercial value belongs to Chow Yun-fat. After the relaxation of the Korean film censorship system, countless Korean directors have followed the trend in the past three years and have made many local Korean gangster hero films. Chow Yun-fat is also the first Hong Kong artist to be invited to South Korea to shoot advertisements.
However, after "My Savage Girlfriend" was popular, Joey Wong's commercial value in South Korea would suddenly surpass Chow Yun-fat.
There is no way, "My Savage Girlfriend" is so popular in Korea.
Like mainland China, the Korean people have been imprisoned by thoughts for decades. Although some gangster and criminal films can be sold to South Korea, as long as the films involving politics, religion and traditional ethics are all banned in the first 20 or 30 years.
Even now, erotic movies can appear in Korean cinemas without any scruples, but the film "Jesus in Seoul" filmed by the new Korean film movement director Zhang Sun-woo has been censored for more than two years, and it was not until this Christmas that he did not appear on the screen. In fact, he only filmed some weird experiences after a mentally ill patient who claimed to be reincarnated by Jesus and escaped from the hospital.
"My Savage Girlfriend" has a curb of the country. This movie has nothing to do with politics and religion, but it directly impacts the traditional concept of Korean men's superiority and inferiority. While pleases Korean women, it can also prevent Korean men from being disgusted.
This challenge to traditional concepts is not comparable to Jackie Chan and Chow Yun-fat's actions and gunfight movies, it is a kind of ideological shock and impact.
In addition, the movie is funny and touching. Korean audiences are like shopping malls, rushing to the cinema to watch "My Savage Girlfriend".
After World War II, feminist thoughts emerged. In the past, American women did not work after marriage, but now they have entered the workplace one by one.
"My Savage Girlfriend" may be just a pretty good romantic comedy for European and American audiences, but in the Confucian cultural circle in Asia, it is an impact on traditional aesthetics.
A Japanese women's magazine praised Kang Jianfei after "My Savage Girlfriend" was released, saying that he was a true feminist director.
Whether it is Japan, South Korea, or Singapore and Hong Kong, a savage whirlwind suddenly blew on this Christmas. The new generation of girls regarded Joey Wong as their idols and used punches and kicks to express their love for their boyfriends.
When their boyfriend protested, the girls responded with the ten love rules in the film and began to question their boyfriends: You don’t even want to be beaten for me, which means you don’t love me at all!
Many men were very grateful to Kang Jianfei because after watching the movie with their girlfriend, they went to study for a room in the movie and checked romance, and naturally took down the other party.
There are also many men gritting their teeth at Kang Jianfei. "My Savage Girlfriend" has become a barbaric Bible, making the originally gentle and cute girl look hideous.
Ming Pao Weekly commented on this: There is no doubt that Kang Jianfei made another phenomenon-level movie.
Although some older viewers criticized the film, this could not stop "My Savage Girlfriend" from making box offices everywhere.
Not only has Joey Wong's title of the four queens been stabilized, but her reputation has even increased again, and her influence is second only to Cherie Chung.
Wu Zhenyu, who plays the male lead, obviously has far more scenes than the female lead, but his popularity is completely blocked by Joey Wong. Many movie fans have watched it several times and even don’t know what Wu Zhenyu’s name is, only knowing that he is Qianniu.
But even so, Wu Zhenyu has gone from being a supporting actor, Fu Yao and directly became a quasi-first-line movie star in Hong Kong. His good luck has made many young actors envious.
Wu Zhenyu in another time and space has several nicknames called Liang Kun and Brother Kun, but his current nicknames are called Qianniu and Brother Niu, with a different style of paintings of 108,000 miles apart.
Next time, the company’s main film must bypass Kang Jianfei’s movie release!Pandison threw a magazine on the table with laughter and tears.
Cen Jianxun sat on the sofa opposite him, crossing his legs to drink tea, and continued: But when we are in theaters, we have to face Kang Jianfei's films. We can't give up the entire prime time of Christmas.
Pandison had nothing to say about this. They prepared a romantic comedy film of big casts for Christmas, but was crushed into a scumbag by "My Savage Girlfriend". They only received more than 5 million in the first week of box office.
Although this romantic comedy by Debao Film Company must have made a big profit in addition to the box office in Shanghai, it was overwhelming to breathe by the movies released at the same time in Hong Kong, which still made Mr. Pan feel depressed.
Cen Jianxun got up and walked over, picked up the magazine that Pan Disheng had just thrown on the table, glanced at it and said: Kang Jianfei really flew into the sky this time.
The magazine Cen Jianxun's hand was the last issue of Time magazine in 1987. It created a ranking of 50 best international directors (living directors), among which four Asian directors were ranked: Japan's director Akira Kurosawa ranked 7th, Hong Kong's director Hu Jinquan ranked 27th, and Japan's director Kenji Mizuguchi ranked 50th.
Kang Jianfei was also listed on the list of the best directors in the world, and his ranking was slightly behind Hu Jinquan and ranked 32nd.
In fact, Kang Jianfei is disdainful of this ranking. Who knows how the editor of Time magazine ranks it. This thing is extremely subjective, and even the personal relationship between the director and the editor may affect the ranking of this list.
However, for other Hong Kong filmmakers, the ranking of Time magazine is an extremely high honor, which is an authoritative certification of famous American magazines.
Feng Huáng and several Hong Kong newspapers have reported this, so the previous issue of Time magazine appeared in Pan Disheng's hands.
Kang Jianfei is ranked in the middle in the list of those 50 places, but he is very eye-catching.
Because he is only in his 20s, the youngest directors on the list are already in their 40s.
In any case, the title of director Kang Jianfei's talent has been confirmed. After the authoritative certification of Time magazine, he is a veritable international director.
When Pan Disheng was depressed that the box office was not as good as expected, Wong Baiming shouted for luck.
His desperate big cast "Eight Stars" originally wanted to be released on Christmas time, but because he could not compete for the New Art City, he settled for the second best time in mid-January, which is the mid-year time.
Now it seems that "Eight Stars News" just avoided the strong period of "My Savage Girlfriend", and Huang Baiming smiled and watched the movies in New Art City fail.
Hong Kong Night Market, a food stall.
Wong Pai-ming, who is already the owner of the film company, is having a midnight snack with Johnnie To, Lin Lingdong and Teddy Robin at the food stall.
The year when Kang Jianfei traveled over, Johnnie To made a frustrating New Wave movie. Later, he felt that his ability was insufficient, so he went back to shoot TV series and became the producer on TVB. A few months ago, Wong Bai-ming pulled him into Vientiane Film Company.
Lin Lingdong and Teddy Robin used to be in the New Art City. When Huang Baiming left, they stayed there with careless pleasure, so they all ran out to join Huang Baiming. Teddy Robin himself also founded a small record company.
With three gangs, Huang Baiming is not only not easy to do with one man, but now he has three generals under his command.
Although he has withdrawn from the New Art City, many handovers have not been completed yet. For example, how to divide the copyrights of those movies in the past, how much is worth when exchanged for money, and it is difficult to count various hidden assets.
Huang Baiming is preparing to go to Lei Juekun to talk to him after the New Year. He wants to exchange the hidden assets of Xinyi City for part of the equity of Vientiane Film, and then take out part of his own, allocate the equity of these new companies to Johnnie To and win over the three generals with their shares.
I just said, don't argue with Mai Jia and the others. The fool in Kang Jianfei's movie hit him, and now they know that they have a headache.
Teddy Robin was gloatingly drinking beer, as if it was Mai Jia and Shi Tian’s movie that made him very happy.
Johnnie To sighed: Yesterday I went to watch "My Savage Girlfriend". Kang Jianfei is really amazing. We actually followed his butt and chased him, but we always couldn't catch up.
Huang Baiming smiled and comforted: Afeng, don’t be too arrogant. Our "Eight Stars News" is also good. I guess the box office may even exceed "My Savage Girlfriend".
Lin Lingdong echoed: It is very likely.
Huang Baiming's words are not arrogant, but have his own reasons.
"Eight Stars" brings together eight popular stars, which are all-age comedy movies, while "My Savage Girl" is the main audience group of young people, and many elderly viewers are even a little disgusted with "My Savage Girl".
That's not necessarily the case, Johnnie To shook his head and said, when the summer season "Fang Fang" was first released, I estimated that it had a box office of up to 28 million, which was added to Kang Jianfei's influence and the publicity effect brought by the Cannes award.That movie is even harder to be accepted by Hong Kong audiences than "My Savage Girl", but it sold at the box office completely unreasonable, and it finally broke the 40 million mark. Who knows how much box office "My Savage Girl" will sell in the end.
As soon as Johnnie To said this, Wong Baiming also felt deeply.
As the only movie with a local box office of over 40 million, Wong Pai-ming has studied it countless times afterwards, but has not yet figured out what is going on.
Johnnie To took a sip of wine and said mysteriously: And I heard from Wang Jing that Kang Jianfei seemed to have made a big move again.
Teddy Robin asked: Are you talking about his plan to open a film company in South Korea?
Start a company in South Korea?Johnnie To was stunned, then shook her head and said, Kang Jianfei is ready to officially enter Hollywood.
Huang Baiming asked: DreamWorks seems to have been entering Hollywood.
Johnnie To smiled and said: I mean, Kang Jianfei seems to be buying Paramount.
What?Lin Lingdong, who didn't say much, suddenly screamed, Kang Jianfei actually wanted to acquire Paramount, he had taken the wrong medicine.
For filmmakers all over the world, Paramount Pictures is a behemoth. It would be very happy to have the opportunity to cooperate with Paramount. There would be no idea of opposing Paramount or acquiring Paramount.
I don’t know whether it is true or not, anyway, Wang Jing said it after drinking last time.Johnnie To is the apprentice of Wang Jing's father, and the two have a very good private relationship.
Lin Lingdong asked: Does Kang Jianfei have that much money?It will cost at least a few billion to acquire Paramount.
After all, Huang Baiming was a boss. He knew very well how profitable Kang Jianfei's Oriental Group had in recent years. He nodded and said: Kang Jianfei's personal assets are at least 3 billion US dollars. If you move them all, then you will borrow some from the bank. He will definitely be able to take out enough money.
Teddy Robin shook his head: It's outrageous to acquire Paramount, but it's more realistic to open a film company in South Korea.
South Korea only allowed overseas funds to directly invest in film companies, shoot movies and release movies in South Korea after January 1987.
In addition, South Korea has taken off its economy in recent years and Hong Kong stars are very popular in South Korea, so the Korean film market is simply a virgin land for Hong Kong filmmakers.
Not to mention anything else, open a film company in South Korea, and then invest some money casually, get one or two Hong Kong stars and a group of local Korean actors to make movies. As long as you manage the official channels in South Korea, you can easily make money in South Korea.
Wong Pai-ming is too busy in Hong Kong, otherwise, with his eyes, he would definitely go to Korea to invest in movies.
