Longteng Cinema Headquarters

"Hello Mr. Qiao"

"Mr. Qiao"

"Mr. Qiao"

Qiao Feng smiled and nodded and responded until the general manager's office received the last greeting.

"Mr. Qiao is here very early." Lion-headed Cen Jianxun stood up and smiled when he saw Qiao Feng coming in and said.

"It's getting late. I started to get the jet lag when I came back yesterday. I slept for more than ten hours." Qiao Feng shook his head helplessly every time he went to the United States, the jet lag made him most uncomfortable.

"I also have a deep understanding of this." Cen Jianxun nodded in agreement

"How is the box office situation recently? Is there a big hit on New Year's Day?" After chatting for a few seconds, Qiao Feng went straight to the point and asked.

Cen Jianxun shook his head

"The situation is not good." Qiao Feng frowned

The situation in Hong Kong is different from the United States. After September, the film market cooled down and the awards season started various operations, while the TV market began to become lively.

This is a tacit understanding between American TV and movies. In the summer season when the movie is lively, TV stations will basically not broadcast carefully produced dramas, and from October to March and April of the following year, big-invested movies will basically not be involved.

During this period, there will be several movies with relatively high investments in Christmas.

Of course this is just a basic situation, and there are also big investments. Investors expect that movies with high value will be released in such a cold schedule, and the box office is very good.

But one movie may not be released that year, so it will not have much impact on the TV station's ratings.

But there is no such tacit understanding in Hong Kong

Whether it is wireless or ATV, there will be well-produced TV series released all year round, and it won’t matter what schedule the movie market is popular and when it will not be popular.

As for the film market, because there are many holidays, movies in Hong Kong will not be crowded in the summer months like American movies.

Instead, there is another Spring Festival period, and the New Year's Day period.

Since the New Year's Day is only a few days before and after Christmas, this period is more popular than that in the United States

So, generally speaking, there will always be one or two movies in this period of each year, and the box office is still good. Although it is unlikely to enter the top ten of the annual box office list, there are still top twenty.

But judging from Cen Jianxun's appearance, it seems that this New Year's Day season does not even have a movie like this.

Sure enough, I heard Cen Jianxun shake his head and continued: "It's not just bad, it's quite bad so far. Whether it was just released in January or released in December, I have to draw it now, and there is not even a movie with a box office of over 10 million yuan. The best situation is that Ah B and Dudu starring BB30, but it only has an eight million yuan box office."

After Cen Jianxun's careful introduction, Qiao Feng finally knew how cold this New Year's Day holiday was.

There were basically no big-produced movies released in the past month. Several major film companies, namely Jiahe, released a movie called Mr. Night Demon in December. If you want to talk about the lineup, Mr. Night Demon's lineup is getting better.

The male lead Zhang Jianting, who is filming cousin, you are not only a well-known director but also a well-known actor.

Not to mention the heroine Li Saifeng, the first-line Hong Kong actress came here.

Supporting roles include Lou Nanguang and Chen You, all of them are very well-known.

Director Liu Guanwei is also a well-known director

But unfortunately, this horror drama is not horrible. It is said that it is a comedy and not funny. I don’t know what I want to say. It’s completely like a four-dimensional character.

Naturally, a good lineup is hard to save the bad plot. The box office is definitely not much better. It will be drawn in two days, but the box office has just exceeded 4 million.

Qiao Feng estimated that four million may not even be able to recover the production cost. The box office alone will lose money.

That is, relying on offline videotape income and theater sharing, Jiahe can make a small profit

Then there is bb30 starring Jong Zhentao and Cheng Yuling

The box office of this comedy is pretty good. It is produced by Huang Baiming's Oriental Film Company, and the male and female leading actors are both on the front line. Although the female supporting actress Guan Xiumei did not get a good ranking in the Hong Kong Miss, Guan Xiumei, who is still taking the pure route at this time, is pretty good-looking and has a hot figure, and can also attract a group of audiences.

Director Xian Qiran obviously has the best advantage of this kind of urban light comedy. The rhythm of the whole film is very good, and the conflicts and laughs are well controlled.

So although the plot is rather old-fashioned, it can still attract a group of loyal comedy audiences.

This movie is also the most impressive box office record at present, but it is only 8 million.

And I'm also facing a picture, and it's estimated that the box office of 9 million is out of reach.

In addition to these two films that were released before New Year's Day, the box office that was just released after New Year's Day is barely OK, and there are only two films.

Then these two films are not all produced by big film companies

One of them is Tiandi Xuanmen produced by Jiahe, while the other is a film company called Ying Film Production Company, which was previously established after Xinbao Cinemas.

One of the bosses of this company is the well-known screenwriter and writer Huang Ying

However, Huang Ying is just one of the bosses. The biggest boss of this company is actually someone else. Huang Ying was recruited and pushed to the front of the stage because of her talent as a screenwriter.

Therefore, the movies produced by this company have always been released on Xinbao Theater.

There is no way, the movie investment is not big, the filming is not good, and it turns out that there is external funds inside, and I want to compete with Longteng Cinema, so Longteng Cinema will not allow the movies they produce to be released on Longteng Cinema at all.

This was only after Xinbao Cinema could not continue to open and external funds were withdrawn, and the film company was allowed to be released on Longteng Cinema.

Let’s talk about Jiahe’s films first. The quality is good, and the lineup will not be bad anyway.

This is the case with Mr. Ye Demon before, and this mysterious gate of heaven and earth is even more luxurious.

Not to mention anything else, Wang Yuxian alone is overtaken by Zhang Jianting and Li Saifeng.

Not to mention that Uncle Ying and Lin Zhengying are the male lead, and they are filming another ghost action movie

Wang Yuxian's ancient costume looks are really intriguing.

But Wang Yuxian's charm alone cannot save the same bad plot

After the release, a newspaper commented that this Tiandi Xuanmen was the worst ghost movie ever filmed by Lin Zhengying.

Worse than the zombie supreme

Although the Zombie Supreme does not have Wang Yuxian, they have Wu Jiali

Wu Jiali is not as good-looking as Wang Yuxian, but she is as seductive as Wang Xiaofeng, who plays a female ghost.

And although the plot is not good, the Zombie Supreme is at least willing to spend money on the scene.

When promoting this drama, it is said that it is the second special effects blockbuster in Hong Kong after Xu Ke's new Shushan Swordsman.

Although such publicity is much exaggerated, investment is far from the bottom, but the large-scale special effects inside are indeed rare in Hong Kong movies.

Like the senior brother in the room, he made a group of corpses attack Lin Zhengying, the scene of a European and American zombie film is simply a replica of the Maoshan Taoist priests catching ghosts. It is also very grand.

Then there was no more

Compared with the Xuanmen of Heaven and Earth, the Zombie Supreme, which is the special effect scene, is worth watching.

And it is this special effect that makes the box office of Zombie Supreme always lead by tens of thousands of times than Tiandi Xuanmen

Yes, only tens of thousands

The result of such a big investment special effect scene is to lead the box office of tens of thousands of yuan

From this we can see how charming Wang Jianxian is. It can almost be said that one person has brought the box office gap between the worse Tiandi Xuanmen and the Zombie Supreme, which has a good special effect scene.

Although the box office of these two movies is about 60 million or 7 million in the end, the box office will be around 60 million.

But just looking at this point, it is really good to pay for a large price for Jiahe to hire Wang Jianxian. At least Wang Jianxian's pay is much less than the investment in special effects.

Wang Jianxian can hold the box office and Qiao Feng is very happy for her from the bottom of his heart, but he is really not happy in the face of such a cold New Year's Day holiday.
