On the first day of the Lunar New Year on February 17, Qiao Feng's wife and children teased their son to watch the replay of the Spring Festival Gala in the hotel in Laiyang, Shandong.

"Xingzai, do you think we will succeed?" Wu Mengda, who had an obscene face, bumped the shoulder of Zhou Xingchi, who was wandering in the world, and asked.

"Ah, you have to ask the director about this." Zhou Xingchi, who came back to his senses, was stunned and looked at the director Liu Zhenwei on the other side.

Liu Zhenwei looked at Wu Mengda, then at Zhou Xingchi, and then looked at another director, Yuan Kui: "If you want to ask, you have to ask Director Yuan, the box office of the Flying Dragon General directed by him is a hot mess."

"Don't, the director of the Flying Dragon Fierce General is mainly my senior brother, not me, and the success of the movie is mainly due to them, and it has nothing to do with me." Yuan Kui smiled bitterly and waved his hand, not only the flying dragon and fierce general, but even now that they watch this movie, he is only the second director, and the first director is Liu Zhenwei, so it has little to do with him whether the box office is good or not.

"What do you say, Amin?" Liu Zhenwei asked the only two women.

Zhang Min and Wu Junru looked at each other and smiled bitterly, they really don't know how to answer this question, if they want to say that they must hope to succeed, they may not succeed God knows.

"The script was written by Mr. Qiao, and the director and starring were also chosen by Mr. Qiao, I think it will definitely be successful." Zhang Min has only acted in three movies, and she has to count this gambling saint, she doesn't have much experience, and she really doesn't know how to say if the movie is good or not, and whether it can be successful.

Because this movie is funny or not, it must be funny, but it is different from previous comedies, just like the eight-star annunciation, which is a very orthodox comedy style, but the gambling saint is different.

The actor Zhou Xingchi's performance is completely subversive, and the kind of non-logical and neurotic comedy expression is another style entirely.Zhang Min knows that the boss Qiao Feng calls this style nonsensical, but whether the audience will accept and like this style Zhang Min doesn't know, but in view of the boss's brilliant record in the past, she is willing to believe that the gambling saint will be a successful subversion of the comedy style.

Wu Junru is not as good as Zhang Min, although she acted very early, she was admitted to the wireless training class at the age of sixteen, and Liu Jialing, Zeng Huaqian, Lan Jieying They are classmates, but due to the problem of personal image, although she has been walking the path of gentle beauty, she also played Zeng Rou in 84 Lu Ding Ji, but her TV career is far from being successful, and Liu Jialing, Zeng Huaqian, and Lan Jieying in the same period are completely incomparable.

When I was in middle school, I didn't like to study, and my grades were not good. Mom and Dad think she might as well be an actress if she has a good personality. At that time, he was sixteen years old, Wu Junru didn't think too much, so he went to apply for the wireless training class and was admitted.

Later, when she was selected to play Zeng Rou in 84, Wu Junru herself was puzzled, she bought Lu Ding Ji and looked over and over again and did not find that she had even a little resemblance to Zeng Rou, Zeng Rou was the most gentle one of Wei Xiaobao's seven wives, and she was the most troublesome one in the training class, the director and producer were blind to choose her, Wu Junru didn't understand, but she had to seize the opportunity, so in order to play such a jade girl, in order to play the graceful atmosphere of Zeng Rou's role, she deliberately made her voice very gentle, but this " Pretend" performance she herself felt stiff, let alone the audience.

But the positioning given to her by the station is like this, in fact, not only Wu Junru, but even the equally crazy Yuan Qiongdan took the path of an intellectual beauty in the early days, who dared to imagine that she would later become the ugliest pomegranate sister and the old bustard professional, no one thought of it.

Being selected to participate in the two movies that became famous through Stephen Chow and Wu Mengda is a big deal for Wu Junru is a pie-in-the-sky thing, not to mention that this movie is still starring Zhang Min, who doesn't know that Zhang Min is Qiao Feng's favorite, can the movie she participated in be bad?

As a result, Wu Junru cried on the first day of filming in the group, because her character image is really very different from her previous roles, the difference is too far, even if she doesn't play a beauty, she can't self-destruct her image to such a point, the joy in her heart turned into sadness, and the sadness turned into a river, Wu Junru cried for a day, and then it took two days to convince herself to accept the cruel reality.

Now Liu Zhenwei asked her to guess whether the movie could succeed, of course Wu Junru wanted the movie to be successful, otherwise wouldn't her ugly sacrifice be in vain? Besides, she also had an idea with Zhang Min, thinking that this movie was Qiao Feng's script, and the actors and directors were all chosen by Qiao Feng, so there was no reason why it should not be successful.

Therefore, she looked at Liu Zhenwei, Yuan Kui, Zhou Xingchi, Wu Mengda, and nodded in agreement with Zhang Min: "I also think it will be successful." After speaking, Wu Junru heard a burst of laughter in the theater again, and she accentuated her tone again and said, "It will definitely succeed, definitely."

Before the release of the gambling saint, no one would have thought that this movie would be so popular that it would crush Zhou Yanfa and Cheng Long's movie.

But such a small-cost movie that is not valued so much by everyone actually relies on its fascinating plot, exaggerated and funny details, fresh elements that fit the characteristics of the times, and Stephen Chow's nonsensical performance style, on the first day of release, the box office record that was just broken by Feilong and Eight Star Annunciation was broken again, and this movie caused a sensation in Hong Kong in one fell swoop.

The single-day box office is nearly 6 million, although there are more people watching movies because it is the beginning of the Lunar New Year, but the speed of collecting money of 6 million on this day is too scary, you must know that there were only 50 Hong Kong local films with a box office of more than 6 million last year, and last year's Hong Kong film production was more than 110 films, which means that the box office of the gambling saint in one day exceeded the total box office of more than half of the films produced last year, and the box office of one day can be ranked in the top 50 of the annual box office.

Although on the day of the New Year, the Flying Dragon and the Eight Star Annunciation, even if the wealth released by Xinbao Cinema is compelling, there are still the number of moviegoers and the box office has risen sharply, but the results of the gambling saint are still outstanding.

Even if a lot of enthusiasm for watching movies was consumed on the day of the New Year, on the second day of release, the box office of the gambling saint still easily exceeded 10 million, and the box office in two days could rank in the top 35 of last year's annual box office.

When Li Zhi called Qiao Feng to report, it was already the eighth day of the release of the gambling saint, and its box office was approaching 30 million.
