The promotion of "Young Master Dragon" is very popular, and what's even more terrifying is that it is released at the same time in 30 theaters on both theaters.
How old is Hong Kong?
Except for some remote places in Kowloon, New Territories, spread these 30 cinemas evenly, you will find how dense these cinemas are.
That feeling is like when you go out and you will see the poster of "Young Master Long".
On the first day of release, "The Dragon Master" reached a first-day box office of 2.17 million, and this data can only be described as horror.
And what about "Dao Ma Dan"?It was only released in 22 theaters of Princess Jin, with a box office of 1.26 million on the first day.
The box office of the two movies was almost doubled on the first day. Several newspapers bought by Jiahe repeatedly reported that "The Dao Ma Dan" was defeated by "The Dragon Master", and hyped up "The Dragon Master" as Jackie Chan's fine work in the past few years.
Although the box office on the first day is far inferior, Kang Jianfei was not panicked at all and continued to promote his movie step by step.
Brigitte Lin was beaten to death for filming, Rosamund Kwan was scolded by Kang Jianfei when she couldn't act, and there were even gossip news like Brigitte Lin dressed up as a man.
The publicity departments of DreamWorks and Princess Golden Cinemas are working hard at the same time, and various news emerged one after another, and the publicity war was hard to distinguish between "The Dragon Master".
……
In Jackie Chan's villa, a sports car was used from the garage.
Jackie Chan was driving in the cab, but next to him was Qin Xianglin who ran to the United States last year due to a prostitute scandal.
Ah Long, your turnaround battle is beautiful this time. Judging from the momentum, it may even exceed 20 million box office.Qin Xianglin smiled.
Jackie Chan is a person who is easily carried away. After hearing this, he laughed and said: I don’t know if it is broken or not, but it must be more than Kang Jianfei’s "Bao Ma Dan".
Qin Xianglin asked: When will the celebration banquet be held?
Jackie Chan said: The celebration banquet must be at least after the box office exceeds 10 million.
Qin Xianglin and Jackie Chan chatted without a word, and often they deliberately pleased Jackie Chan.
Kang Jianfei played too hard last year. After Qin Xianglin's scandal of recruiting prostitutes was passed back to Taiwan, the entertainment industry there was relatively conservative, and it was impossible for him to show his face in the short term.
Qiong Yao was already quite dissatisfied with Qin Xianglin's fickleness. After the scandal of recruiting prostitutes broke out, she even said in private that she would not ask Qin Xianglin to film in the future.
If Taiwan cannot continue to be rigged, then it can only be in Hong Kong.If you want to make a movie in Hong Kong, Qin Xianglin has to rely on Jackie Chan to support her, although this is a big loss.
The two drove to Jiahe Film. Jackie Chan took Qin Xianglin into He Guanchang's office with a spring breeze and asked with a smile: Goddad, what was the box office yesterday?
He Guanchang sighed, shook his head and said: The situation is a little bad.
Jackie Chan was like a basin of cold water was poured on his head and asked: What happened?
He Guanchang said: The single-day box office on the second day of the release of "The Dragon Master" has dropped to 1.64 million.
Jackie Chan was shocked and said: Didn’t the box office on the first day be 2.17 million?Why did you lose so much the next day?
He Guanchang said: If the box office in a single day drops below 1.5 million today, Shaw Brothers Theater will remove five theaters, and other theaters will also have to be screened less every day.
Jackie Chan asked anxiously: Why is this happening?
He Guanchang sighed: Alas, it seems that old-style kung fu movies are really out of the market, and the attendance rate is declining very quickly now.
Jackie Chan suddenly sat back on the leather chair, and the strength he had spread there seemed to be dissipating.
He Guanchang comforted: Ah Long, don’t be discouraged. There is no problem with the box office of "The Dragon Master" exceeding 10 million.
The box office exceeded 10 million, and if it were another actor, he would be so happy that he would dance, but Jackie Chan was not in much good mood.
This year, the price of movie tickets in Hong Kong has increased again, with an average ticket price reaching 11 yuan, and the box office exceeding 10 million is not challenging for Jackie Chan.
Qin Xianglin suddenly asked: What is the situation in "The Sword and Ma Dan"?
He Guanchang reluctantly put a word out of his mouth: Rise!
……
It's rising!Li Maowen said excitedly on the phone that the box office of "The Legend of Dao Ma Dan" was 1.38 million on the second day of its release!
The single-day box office rose from 1.26 million to 1.38 million, which is a considerable increase.
Lei Juekun said happily: Then put the paintings of "Modern Heavenly Master" in advance and increase the number of screenings of "Sword and Ma Dan".
Although Lei Juekun and Kang Jianfei had conflicts, they are now unanimous and must grab the audience from Jiahe and Shaw Brothers.
Li Maowen hesitated and said: Mr. Lei, "Modern Master" is based on the original schedule, and there are still four days left to be painted.If you write the painting in advance now, it may be difficult for Mr. Chen and Mr. Feng to explain.
Lei Juekun sneered: What's hard to explain? "Modern Master" has been released for more than half a month. Now, apart from the cost, there is almost no profit in theaters. Playing that drama is like a waste.
Li Maowen had no choice but to say: OK, I will increase the number of episodes for "Dao Ma Dan" tomorrow.
Lei Juekun hung up the phone and was quite dissatisfied with Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong.Although they are both shareholders of Princess Jin Cinema, Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong are both juniors in front of Lei Juekun.
These two juniors are jealous of watching others make movies, and they actually want to come in and make a comeback. They also rely on their identity as a shareholder of theaters to force this movie to be the first in the summer season. This is really outrageous.
Kowloon Bus has been acquired by Sun Hung Kai at this time, and Lei Juekun has become the second largest shareholder of Kowloon Group, which makes him more concerned about Princess Jin.
……
On the third day of the release of "The Legend of Dao Ma Dan", the box office fell slightly in a single day, with only 1.3 million.The box office of "The Dragon Master" fell even worse, with a single-day box office of 1.36 million.
Speaking of which, both movies are somewhat congenital. "The Legend of the Dao Ma Dan" has a literary flavor that Hong Kong audiences don't like, and it lacks some pleasure.
And what about "Young Master Long"?
Old-style kung fu films are really outdated and gradually cannot keep up with the audience's aesthetic taste.
To put it bluntly, the box office of "The Dragon Master" exceeded 2 million on the first day.
First, Jiahe and Shaw Cinemas were screened in two lines, and second, Jackie Chan's box office appeal was placed there. Then, through the overwhelming media publicity, many viewers were attracted, and Kang Jianfei's "Blade Ma Dan" made the box office unsatisfactory on the first day.
Starting from the third day of release, the box office situation of the two movies began to stalemate.
Until the end of the first week, the cumulative box office of "Dao Madan" in the first week was 7.91 million, while the cumulative box office of "Dragon Master" in the first week was 8.23 million.
Judging from the data alone, Jackie Chan's "The Dragon Master" won a small game, but judging from the number of theaters released by the two movies, the attendance rate of "The Legend of the Dao Ma Dan" was completely successful.
"Movie Biweekly" commented on these two movies quite interesting, and the review reads: ...It is obvious that "The Dao Ma Dan" and "The Dragon Master" are two inappropriate movies."The Legend of Dao Ma Dan" is too advanced. If this movie is placed ten years later, the box office reflection will definitely be more popular than it is now."The Dragon Master" is too old. It was definitely one of the best products ten years ago, and it was enough to sweep the Hong Kong box office.Unfortunately, it’s now, neither ten years later nor ten years ago, so neither of these two excellent films can meet the director’s expectations…
Half a month later, the cumulative box office of "The Dragon Master" was more than 14.5673 million yuan, while the cumulative box office of "The Dao Ma Dan" was more than 14.5666800 yuan.
This situation made the media very happy. The two movies competed for only a box office difference of more than 500 yuan.
So far, Jackie Chan has temporarily led the box office battle with a slight advantage, but in terms of reputation, the two movies are judged immediately.
Putting aside those Gunner articles, the media’s evaluation of "The Dragon Master" is: an well-made old-style kung fu film.
The evaluation of "Dao Madan" is: a film about the early Republic of China that perfectly integrates commerciality and artisticity.
Yi Shu even commented in Ming Pao with great praise: Among all the movies I have watched, "The Dao Ma Dan" ranks second, and the Hollywood movie "Roman Holiday" ranked first...
Kang Jianfei is a very special director. His style is sometimes delicate, sometimes humorous, sometimes sad, sometimes passionate, and sometimes passionate. It is varied and unpredictable.
Since the 1960s, Hong Kong movies have been the world of male stars. Female stars have gradually become vases for foils, and there are very few female-themed movies.
But let’s look at the movies directed by Kang Jianfei, including the four movies: "Happy Ghost", "Mr. Zombie", "Senior Sister Royal" and "Sword and Madan", three of which are female perspectives.
In the movie "The Legend of the Sword", he even created three heroines with completely different personalities and status in one go.
By fateful coincidences, Director Kang brought three women together: Brigitte Lin is the country, Cherie Chung is the wealth, and Rosamund Kwan is the dream. By accident, the country hates family and children are entangled, and a soul-stirring drama of love and hatred in troubled times...
In the video, Brigitte Lin is the most impressive.
She was handsome in Zhongshan suit, dashing in white shirt, grandeur in the Governor's Mansion, and tenacious in prison later.
Her beauty has surpassed gender and fulfilled all people's fantasy of women's beauty.
The ultimate beauty is that it is so beautiful that it is not invasive. Even I, who is the same-sex, can't help but be impressed...
And Lin Guan’s performance is also amazing. I heard that she is the daughter of the old actor Guan Shan, or because of her father and daughter, she actually has such superb acting skills for the first time.
Under her interpretation, a simple, straightforward and strong-hearted woman was played by her.
Compared with Cao Yun played by Brigitte Lin, although Lin Jian did not do a grand deed, her rebellion towards tradition in her bones is not inferior. At the end of the film, she resolutely chose to find her father and continue to pursue her dream of stage...
The role of Xiang Hong by Cherie Chung is hilarious. No one expected that the Miss Hong Kong would perform such a funny and playful taste. This was a brand new breakthrough for her...
