Chapter 76

Aren't records meant to be broken?

Zhang Yi's height has grown a lot in the past year, but he is only just over 1.7 meters tall, which is much shorter than Zhou Li. Moreover, Zhang Yi only practices internal martial arts and has not practiced external martial arts, so there is nothing outstanding about his appearance.

The place. The two stood face to face, obviously not the same weight.

However, the match between the two was very fast, and in just a blink of an eye, Zhou Bili was thrown off the ring by Zhang Yi's Tai Chi move. Although Zhou Bili stabilized his figure, did not fall, and was not embarrassed at all, there was no doubt that

He has lost.

Zhou Billy was naturally unwilling to accept such a result, but he did not get entangled and agreed to Zhang Yi's invitation. Of course, he accepted Zhang Yi's invitation not because he lost the competition. It was because Zhang Yi's words just moved him.

Any smart boxer will think about the path after retirement. Zhou Billy does have the idea of ​​opening a martial arts gym, and he also knows that the fame gained from making movies is faster and more influential than playing games. Of course, this influence is not in the circle

Not here, but among ordinary people.

But when you open a martial arts gym and recruit disciples, aren't you dealing with ordinary people? How many people in your circle can you accept?

After Miura, the villain was cast, Zhang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. As for Miura's adjutant Sato, another villain among the villains, Zhang Yi planned to let Yuanhua play the role. Zhang Yi valued Yuanhua not for his skills, but for

His appearance.

As for Jinshan Zhao, Zhang Yi finally has an ideal candidate, and that is Li Yuanba, who starred in "Tiger Revival". Whether it is his physical fitness or the character he displays, he is somewhat similar to Jinshan Zhao.

As for Master Liao, Zhang Yi actually found Meng Hai, a member of the Hong Family Gang and one of the leading actors in "Shu Mountain". As for the two brothers Wu Chi Lin and Sha Dan Yuan, Zhang Yi actually found two brothers.

play.

Qian Xiaohao plays Wu Chi Lin, and Qian Jiale plays Sha Dan Yuan! Although Qian Xiaohao was found by the crew of "Mr. Zombie" and the schedules overlap, it is not impossible for the two crews to run away, not to mention that Wu Chi Lin does not have many scenes.

And just when Zhang Yi put down the preparations for the movie "Ip Man" and concentrated on the promotion of "Crazy Racing", "God of Gamblers" had already exceeded 30 million and headed straight for 40 million.

In 1984, "God of Gamblers" was released a month after its release. With a box office of more than 41 million, it directly broke the box office record of "Nightclub" and became the highest-grossing film in Hong Kong.

"Ayi, I broke your record! Hahahahaha! I am the only one in the top four in the Hong Kong box office list, and the total box office exceeds 100 million! Haha!"

When the box office of "God of Gamblers" exceeded the box office of Zhang Yi's "Nightclub", Fatty Wang laughed wildly in front of Zhang Yi and was very proud.

"Fat man, calm down. Aren't records meant to be broken? Is there something there to show off? You're so excited that you're going crazy. That's all you can do! Three of the top four box office films in Hong Kong were made by you.

So the four scripts were all written by me?" Zhang Yi said with a faint smile.

"Oh!" When Fatty Wang heard this, he immediately looked at Zhang Yi and said, "Aren't records meant to be broken? Ayi, are you going to tell me that your "Crazy Racing" has a chance to break "

"God of Gamblers" record? You won't let "God of Gamblers" stay at the top of the box office for more than two months, right?"

"It's unlikely!" Zhang Yi shook his head. Thinking of "Crazy Racing", Zhang Yi was unsure. If that kind of narrative method was accepted by others, maybe he wouldn't rush to the street. After all, when "God of Gamblers" was released and

It was the same as when "Fast Truck" was released. It was basically a one-stop company, and there was no comparable film that divided the box office.

But "Crazy Racing" is different, it's like the Three Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony. "Crazy Racing" is still released in Shaw Brothers Cinemas, and at the same time, there are also New Art City's "The Queen's Secret Order" and Golden Harvest

"Teppanyaki"!

Needless to say, "The Queen's Secret Service" is the third part of the "Best Partner" series produced by New Art City. Although the first two films were overshadowed by Zhang Yi's movies, it cannot conceal its classics.

It also blocks his appeal to the audience. In a parallel world, this movie topped the list in 1984 with a box office of nearly 30 million.

"Teppanyaki" is a movie written, directed and acted by Xu Guanwen. In a parallel world, despite competing with the movie "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", it still managed to earn nearly 20 million at the box office, ranking first in 1984.

Ranked sixth on the box office list. Still ahead of "Plan A".

The three movies were released at the same time, and the incident between Zhang Yi and New Art City was brought up by the media and became a hot topic. However, Xu Guanwen refused Zhang Yi's invitation and did not appear in "Nightclub". After "Nightclub" became a hit at the box office, he was

There was a lot of ridicule in the media, especially a line from "Nightclub" that was used by the media.

Crown text is more suitable, leap hair is also ok!

If Xu Guanwen refuses, they can find a "box office poison" to replace you! And the box office is a big hit, directly dominating the Hong Kong box office list! Although, Zhang Yi did not hold a grudge against Xu Guanwen's refusal as the media said, and took advantage of the opportunity.

Ironic. But three people become tigers, so Xu Guanwen naturally thought so without knowing it.

In fact, after Xu Guanwen watched "Nightclub", he did regret a little. He regretted not reading the script. In fact, the role of He Sanshui was really suitable for him. If he had read the script, he would definitely take it.

Now the three of them meet on a narrow road, and are hyped up by the media like enemies meeting, and the atmosphere is full of gunpowder. Although Zhang Yi has "Nightclub" as his background and is the screenwriter of several box office hits, the media is not interested in Zhang Yi's self-written, directed, and self-financed movie.

"Crazy Racing" is not optimistic, and numerous media outlets have threatened that this film will be Zhang Yi's "Waterloo".

And when the news of Zhang Yi's preparation for a new film came out, the media directly believed that Zhang Yi himself had no confidence in the film. He started preparing for the new film before the film was released. What is it if he didn't give up on this film?

Zhang Yi actually did not expect that the three films would be released at the same time by such a coincidence. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? When the coincidence occurred, Zhang Yi somewhat guessed it.

The three films were released at the same time, but they were just pawns in the competition between New Art City, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers. And the grievances between himself, New Art City, and Xu Guanwen were so hotly hyped by the media that the three film companies estimated

He did a lot of work behind the scenes.

Perhaps, New Art City wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to defeat Zhang Yi and save some face. Xu Guanwen may have the same idea, but of course, it is possible that he could not help himself.

Zhang Yi's film almost has a newcomer playing the leading role, and the box office success is almost entirely due to Zhang Yi. Even Zhou Runfa's cameo in it was just an unexpected breakout after "God of Gamblers". But a guest appearance is a guest appearance after all.

Although Zhang Yi’s box office appeal is strong, Xu Tuanjie, Xu Guanwen and others also have strong box office appeal. Perhaps the real competition between the three movies is the movie itself. And it is precisely because of this that Zhang Yi has questions about whether the audience can accept "Crazy Racing"

"The narrative method of "There is no confidence in it.

"Listening to your tone, I feel that you really have no confidence? You won't really give up on this movie as the media said, will you? If you lose to those two movies this time, you don't know what those unscrupulous media will do

Writing!" Fatty Wang looked at Zhang Yi and said, with some worry in his tone.

"What do you think I should say in response to those media? I don't care at all whether I compete with those two movies or not. What I care about is how much less money I will make from this movie because three movies compete with each other!" Zhang Yi waved his hand.

, said, "Fat man, do you think if "God of Gamblers" competed with those two movies, would the box office still be that high?"

Fatty Wang thought for a while and finally shook his head. Not to mention that "God of Gamblers" was released at the same time as those two movies. Even if it was released at the same time as one of them, it probably wouldn't break the box office record. Excellent movies released at the same time will definitely have a box office record.

Will be diverted.

At this time, Wang Jing finally understood why Zhang Yi said that "Crazy Racing" could not break the record of "God of Gamblers".
