Chapter 79

Box office competition

Although Zhang Yi didn't drink much, he had a large capacity for drinking. However, he was no match for those experienced drinkers. He was quickly defeated and was finally carried back by Lin Xiao and Shi Xia.

The next day, Zhang Yi got up early and practiced boxing in the yard as usual, and then worked on the "Boys and Girls Rush Forward" program planning project in the study. He didn't go out for two days in a row. For himself,

I seemed to have completely forgotten about the release of "Crazy Racing" and didn't pay attention to it at all.

It took Zhang Yi two days to plan the program "Boys and Girls Rush Forward", and even the design of the challenge was drawn up with drawings.

Early that morning, Zhang Yi was practicing boxing.

"Ayi!"

Zhang Jing came in and shouted to Zhang Yi.

"Sister, why are you here so early!" Zhang Yi stopped, looked at Zhang Jing, and then said with a smile.

"I can't come!" Zhang Jing rolled her eyes at Zhang Yi and said immediately.

"You are my sister, of course you can come!" Zhang Yi smiled and said.

"Ayi, it's New Year's Eve in a few days, and my dad asked you if you could ask Xiao Min and the others to spend it together. It would be more lively with more people!" Zhang Jing said.

"It should be no problem! I have to ask Xiao Min about this first." Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said.

New Year's Eve is coming up in a few days? Zhang Yi really didn't expect that he was just about to start filming Ip Man, and it looked like he had to step back.

"Ayi, take time to spend more time with Xiaomin, you will make endless money." Zhang Jing added casually.

"I understand, sister. The company is preparing to release a record for Xiao Min, and she is actually quite busy. She didn't have time to go to the screening of my movie two days ago." Zhang Yi said immediately and explained at the same time.

Recently, he and Zhou Huimin have been busy with their own affairs and have indeed spent less time together.

"Your movie? Oh, Ayi, can you get me some movie tickets? Many of my classmates wanted to see their brother's new movie, but they couldn't buy tickets, so they called me

Please help! I've guaranteed it, don't you admit that your sister will lose her status in front of her classmates!" Zhang Jing seemed to think of something after hearing this, and said quickly.

"Can't buy tickets? No way!" Zhang Yi was shocked when he heard this. Is his movie that popular?

"You, you don't know how popular your movie is now, right? It's hard to get a ticket." Zhang Jing looked at her confused brother in disbelief.

Zhang Yi smiled awkwardly, and then shouted: "Lin Xiao!"

"Boss, what's the matter?" Lin Xiao came in and asked immediately.

"Bring me a few copies of the newspapers from the past few days, and then call the theater and ask them to save a dozen movie tickets for me." Zhang Yi said immediately.

"Racing" became a hit, and it was so popular that it was completely beyond Zhang Yi's expectation. Before it was released, Zhang Yi was worried about whether the movie would be accepted by the audience. After all, they didn't know who Guy Ritchie was?

I have never been exposed to this kind of plot mode and narrative technique.

Perhaps, it is because of this plot mode and narrative technique that the audience feels surprised, incredible, and even shocked. This shock is not a visual shock, but a plot shock. Therefore, there is "Crazy Racing"

It's hot right now.

Whether it is the media, film critics, or audiences, "Crazy Racing" has received unanimous praise. It introduces new things and attracts audiences with its story.

The three films were released at the same time, splitting the box office, but the audience was also strange. Most of the audiences who watched Zhang Yi's "Crazy Racing" were young people, while most of the audiences who watched Xu Guanwen's "Teppanyaki" were older.

However, the audience who watched Xinyi City's "The Queen's Secret Order" was somewhere in between.

Zhang Yi's popularity among young people under the age of 20 is absolutely unmatched, and he is regarded as the idol of the younger generation. In the beginning, naturally, most of the people who supported him were these people. But later, word of mouth spread,

Coupled with the audience of Zhang Yi's songs, the fans of the novel, and the fans of the movie, these people's popularity has exploded, and it is difficult to think whether the movie will be popular or not.

On the first day of "Crazy Race", the box office just exceeded 2 million, which was higher than "Teppanyaki" but not as good as "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". The whole New Art City was beaming with joy, thinking that this time they were proud of themselves. But they didn't expect it.

The next day, "Crazy Racing" made a huge reversal, directly killing the other two movies, and directly exceeded 4 million, almost doubling the number on the first day. The two movies were far behind

distance.

On the third day, the box office continued to increase, exceeding 5 million, and exceeded 10 million with more than 12 million. The remaining films had no chance of winning in the face of the crazy box office of "Crazy Racing".

Now, three days have passed, and "Crazy Racing" is still hard to get a ticket for, and the attendance rate remains high.

Looking at these news, Zhang Yi was a little stunned. Unexpected success always brings a taste of surprise.

Could this be the explosion of the time traveler's character? There is only success, no failure! If this continues, it seems that Fatty Wang's worries are still necessary!

Calm down, you must be calm! Just because you succeeded this time does not mean that you will succeed next time. Having no setbacks is not necessarily a good thing. You must be calm! Don't be dazzled by success.

As a reborn time traveler, success is not something to be proud of, failure is shameful!

Zhang Yi's mood gradually calmed down, and then he became calm. The movies he had written and made before were all successful, and he could face it calmly every time, and this time it should be the same. It can't be because it was unexpected.

Surprise, it messed up the sense of proportion.

This success comes with a sense of luck, don’t be too confident!

At TVB, Uncle Shao looked at Zhang Yi with a smile. He was in a good mood recently. Although "Crazy Racing" was not produced by Shaw Brothers, it was released in Shaw Brothers theaters. In the box office competition, it not only defeated Xinyi

The most important thing is to defeat Jiahe.

Not only Zou Wenhuai but also He Guanchang went out against the Shaw Brothers, and Xu Guanwen also went out against the Shaw Brothers.

"Young man, are you interested in cooperating with Shaw Brothers to make a blockbuster, a real blockbuster, and then earn money from those ghost guys!" Uncle Shao said with a smile, "How much box office can it have in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even in Southeast Asia?

.If it can break into the European and American markets, one film can beat several, or even dozens of films."

When Zhang Yi heard this, he looked at Shao Daheng and was a little surprised. This man who focused his attention on television actually wanted to make movies to enter the European and American markets? Did he hear wrongly?

Perhaps there is not a single Hong Kong filmmaker who does not want to open up the European and American markets. However, thinking is one thing, doing it is another, and achieving it is another matter. Today, Hong Kong filmmakers have truly entered the European and American markets.

Maybe it's just Bruce Lee.

"Uncle Liu thinks too highly of me. Hong Kong movies can be recognized by the European and American markets, but now only Bruce Lee's movies can barely be considered. Although I, Zhang Yi, am confident, I am not arrogant enough to compare myself to Bruce Lee." Zhang Yi laughed.

He smiled and said.

"Young man, don't belittle yourself. Have some confidence in yourself. I believe in your grasp of the market! Look at the film rankings in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even Southeast Asian countries today, what are the results of the films you wrote and the films you shot. Although both

There are cultural differences between regions. If it sells well in Southeast Asia, it may not be popular in Europe and the United States. But the copyright of your "Baby" was sold to a Hollywood film company, and the movie they produced has a box office of hundreds of millions, and

It’s U.S. dollars. Moreover, two Hollywood film companies recently wanted to introduce your film "Crazy Racing". Obviously they are optimistic about the market of your film in Europe and the United States." Shao Daheng said with a smile.
