Chapter 848 Unexpected

"The Richest Man in Xihong City" is different from Mahua's other works.

Previously, Happy Mahua's works were all based on drama, and all had successful experience in drama.

Adapted into a movie, it is naturally very popular.

But this time, the comedy was chosen to be a remake - adapted from the 1985 "Brewster's Millions".

"Brewster's Millionaire" scored 6.6 on Douban, which is not considered a high-quality IP.

For "The Richest Man in Xihong City", the movie has been adapted again.

The greatest success is to get rid of the baggage of jokes.

Too much baggage!

"I, Wang Duoyu, have invested in this project!"

"I admit that I am gambling."

"I originally planned to get along with you as an ordinary person, but what I got in exchange was alienation. Stop pretending, I'm showing my cards! I'm a billionaire!"

"Have you heard my story? No, but your face is full of stories."

"An ordinary primary school can cultivate both of you at the same time, God help me!

Congratulations, you can get the Crouching Dragon and Phoenix chicks at the same time!"

It is worthy of being one of the three most influential comedies in the ten years from 2010 to 2020. It is tied with "Let the Bullets Fly" and "Charlotte". In terms of dense laughter, countless violent jokes, and the ability to create jokes.

, it can even catch up with Stephen Chow’s classics from 20 to 30 years ago!

The combination of Song Yunhua, Shen Teng, and Mary who were in the way was eliminated, and the ending was more natural, and the ending, giving up 30 billion for her, was more believable.

Otherwise, give up the 30 billion you got for a girl you have only known for a month and who is not particularly good-looking?

What about logic?

"Tomatoes" was released on the 20th, with a box office of 178 million on the first day and 204 million on the next day...

You should know that the 20th is a Wednesday, a working day!

Many people think Shen Changlin is crazy. He actually made a movie like this to compete with "Transformers 5"?

That's "Transformers"!

Before Marvel, it was the highest-grossing series in the mainland market!

The third part broke 1 billion, the fourth part 1.8 billion...

According to the current market growth, "Transformers 5" will earn at least 3 billion...

Therefore, Weiying Alliance will guarantee a minimum issuance of 2.6 billion!

Many industry analysts believe that this move is very smart: instead of betting on "unreliable" domestic films, it is obviously a smart choice to increase the amount of imported films...

There is a new term: linking up with the outside and supporting the inside!

Who is resisting?

Of course it’s Changlin Film and Television!

The production cost of "Transformers 5" reached US$260 million, and it is the world's first real-life movie shot using IMAX 3D technology.

Before it was released, this movie was aiming at the box office record of "Mermaid" in the history of inland movies. For a super blockbuster that is positioned at 3 billion or even higher in the mainland, the guarantee of 2.6 billion seems really "normal".

"The Richest Man in Xihong City" faces a Hollywood blockbuster that is 'destined' to dominate the film schedule...

You know, this year is the tenth anniversary of the Transformers series!

Ten years ago, at Bumblebee's call, Optimus Prime took Ironhide, Ratchet, and Jazz across the sky like meteorites and landed on Earth!

When the five Autobots gathered and transformed in front of the human protagonist, the theater burst into spontaneous applause and cheers!

Ten years later, the fifth "The Last Knight" was released. Fans of the old animation, coupled with the accumulated audience base of the movie itself, and the Chinese market has expanded to a film market size that can compete with Hollywood, the series' tenth anniversary commemoration feelings

, "The Last Knight" has the right place and right time and the right people come together!

Based on the specifications of "Transformers 5", at least 60% of the films will be scheduled!

What about "The Richest Man in Xihong City"?

Faced with Ning Hao's question, Shen Changlin expressed his stance seriously: "Don't worry, "Transformers 5" will be played for two days at most!"

"…Are you so sure this movie is a bad movie?"

"Yes, I'm sure!"

Ning Hao nodded...

He also has a bit of blind trust in Shen Changlin.

Since Shen Changlin said so definitely, then... there is no problem!

He changed the subject: "Do you think we should ask someone from Mahua to help us with the script of "Country Teacher"?"

"...Okay, you want to express the sense of absurdity... Let's discuss it with Yan Fei, Da Mo, and Zhang Chiyu... They are very good at this!"

Ning Hao nodded: "...Okay, anyway, I want to cooperate with Shen Teng..."

"Shen Teng... is still very powerful!"

"I feel like Lao Huang is a little slack!"

"It's more than just laziness!"

There is a popular joke: a reporter asked Huang Bo, "Have you eaten?" Huang Bo replied, "Yes." The media: "High emotional intelligence!"

It's hard for you to understand, how can this...have high emotional intelligence?

As long as you understand a little bit, you will know - it is obviously a satire on the media's rendering of Huang Bo's emotional business persona, and behind the ridicule of the persona and label, it is that his job is not so reassuring, and his reputation is out of control...

Shen Changlin sighed: "Life has improved and his feet are no longer touching the ground. It's okay for him to play a middle-class person, but it's not enough for a small character!"

"Indeed... he has too much sense of design!"

After a while, Ning Hao left the crew...

He is mainly here to make a cameo. As for the producer - does Shen Changlin still need to be a producer?

Just a name!

After all, this project was originally approached by him...



"Transformers 5" is not just a bad movie, it is a bad movie!

The Autobot brothers have been in trouble for eight lifetimes following the boss of Optimus Prime. They are always driven away and hostile by humans, and they have to protect the earth inexplicably...

Anthony Hopkins, one of the leading actors in this movie, said: "The script is very complicated. Although I have watched the first two "Transformers" and "Transformers 4" starring Wahlberg, the script is very complicated for me. It's still very complicated. Usually when I receive a script, I like to analyze the content of the script and fully understand its meaning. But for this movie, I think I just have to enjoy the fun of filming!'

Translation: I had a sentence called MMP stuck in my throat from this script... Then I thought about it, they gave me so much money, forget it, I just want to be happy!

"Transformers 5" has a hundred ways to sell feelings, make fans climax, and make passers-by happy. However, the result is the worst result - the overdraft of feelings and the lack of narrative talent will eventually lead to the decline of this series. , even in China, which has always been unfavorable.

In fact, these are forebodings: after the 21st, the global word-of-mouth ban will be lifted. The word-of-mouth in North America is extremely bleak, with a Rotten Tomatoes freshness score of 16%. The media score is 27. The IMDB score is 5.4, all of which are the lowest in the series!

The 150-minute movie is very long, especially the IMAX version. The sound is so loud that I can't even fall asleep!

"Who is fighting whom?"

"Does this guy's appearance have any meaning other than delaying time?"

"Why did this guy and this guy start fighting? Wait, why didn't they fight again?"

$260 million?

That's it?

But, after all, it is Transformers!

The box office on the first day was 378 million...

62% of film schedules…

However, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" still had a box office of 140 million;

The next day, with the entire Internet complaining, "Transformers 5" had a single-day box office of 280 million...

It's still very high, but the Saturday box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" rose to 220 million!

On the third day, June 25, "Transformers 5" had a single-day box office of 189 million, and "The Richest Man in Xihong City" directly surpassed it - 260 million in a single day...

The Hollywood blockbuster, "Transformers 5", was a hit with an investment of US$260 million, and the box office in the first three days of the weekend was 847 million...

"The Richest Man in Xihong City" has been in theaters for five days, with a cumulative box office of 1.002 billion!

That’s right, directly over one billion!

That's right, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" faced off against "Transformers 5" and then defeated it!

This achievement is incredible even to passers-by who don’t care about movies...

A major Hollywood production was wiped out by a domestic comedy costing 80 million?
