Chapter 936: Vote with Your Feet
While listening to Cen Jianxun's report, Qiao Feng was also looking at the report in his hand.
The box office results of the Double Dragon Club naturally amazed him, but the numbers in the report in his hand were not bad.
The most eye-catching thing in July is naturally Zhang Guorong, Wang Xuxian, and Li Jiaxin starring A Chinese Ghost Story 2 People in the World.
The film not only won a dazzling box office result in Taiwan, but also in Hong Kong.
Released on July 13, it was just painted yesterday and won a total of 33 million at the box office.
This is more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars more than the original time and space.
Who let the original time and space be released in one theater, but this time and space is released in a super theater that integrates three theaters like Longteng Cinema.
The film arrangement is far from being comparable to the original space-time, and it is normal to exceed more than half of the original space-time.
This is still the release of the Double Dragon Club, which squeezed the number of films in A Chinese Ghost Story 2, otherwise the box office results could be better.
But who made DDA a film in which the entire Hong Kong entertainment industry participated, and it raised funds for the Artists Association.
It's just a loss of some benefits, and you have to give way to the way.
is also for this reason, the senior brother Ghost and Liu Dehua starring Zhou Xingchi, who were released in the middle of the two movies, and Yoshiko Kawashima starring Anita Mui did not get too many benefits in film scheduling.
Both movies were released on July 28, and they have been in theaters for half a month so far, with a box office of 10 million and a box office of less than 9 million.
The final total box office is naturally higher than the total box office of 12 million and 11 million in the original time and space.
But it is also high and limited.
As for the films produced by other independent companies, the situation is similar, although Qiao Feng does not know the box office of the original time and space of these films, but they will definitely be better than the original time and space, but the good is limited.
"Well done." After reading the report, Qiao Feng affirmed Cen Jianxun's work.
Cen Jianxun smiled and didn't speak, this was definitely not enough to make him say anything excitedly.
You must know that everything in Debao was basically in his hands back then, and he was able to manage Debao in a certain period of time to become the third largest film company after Golden Harvest and Xinyi City, and now it is not a matter to manage a mature cinema chain that has long been mature.
There's nothing to be proud of at all.
Qiao Feng didn't care either, he also knew that for Cen Jianxun, the number two person who used to be a big film company, a word of approval was just a complete insensibility.
It's normal if you don't say it.,How can you be excited.,That's.
"September's schedule is vacant a little, not too much, just one per day." Qiao Feng arranged to.
Cen Jianxun looked at Qiao Feng suspiciously, not knowing what the intention of this arrangement was.
"Qingxia's rolling red dust is about to finish filming, and I am going to send this film to the Golden Horse Awards.Arrange some screenings." Qiao Feng explained with a smile.
"Oh." Cen Jianxun nodded in understanding.
This way of screening is rare in Hong Kong, but it is not uncommon.
To put it bluntly, the screening is very similar to the midnight scene that some movies still use in Hong Kong in the early years.
The midnight show is when a movie is made, and the production company is not sure whether the movie will be popular, so it is screened in advance at the midnight show to see what the audience thinks of the movie, and a large-scale release will be arranged after the evaluation.
If the evaluation is not good, then re-edit or even reshoot some content according to the audience's feedback to make the movie better, and then release it.
Although the purpose of the screening is not like this, it is also similarly pointed out.
Screenings basically appear before participating in the film awards.
Except, of course, from the Cannes International Film Festival, the Venice International Film Festival, the Berlin International Film Festival, and the three major European film festivals.
Because the rules of the three major international film festivals in Europe are that only films that have not been released and premiered at the festival can participate in their awards.
If you want to participate in this kind of film festival, you can't do it.
But for films like the Academy Awards, the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards and even the Hong Kong Film Awards, it is okay to hold movie screenings.
Especially for film festivals like the Academy Awards, where there are many judges and the results of the awards will be affected by public opinion, it is even more suitable for screenings.
Although the selection of the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards is not very affected by the audience's public opinion and public aesthetics, it is also possible to engage in screenings.
Because although the time of the film festival, the judges are unlikely to be affected.
However, in the film festival, if a film is well received by a huge audience, and even the judges have seen the movie in advance, then when it comes time to participate in the selection, they will inevitably preconceive more towards this film.
Just like the world footballer of the year, the participants are the head coaches and captains of the national teams of various countries.
In the more than 20 years since the creation of the World Footballer of the Year selection in 91 to 2016, the results of the World Footballer of the Year award can be said to be a perfect interpretation of what it means to vote with your feet.
In the early days of the World Footballer of the Year, the rules were that the national team managers of each member association voted for the top 3 candidates, but could not choose the members of the national team they coached.
But with so many footballers in the world, who qualifies for the World Footballer of the Year?
For the most powerful European region in the football world, that place is not big, and everyone often plays a cup game together, a championship game, relatively speaking, which football player has great ability and high level every year, and I still know it in my heart.
But for many teams in Asia, North America, and South America, the level of football itself is quite bad, and they have never participated in any decent competitions, and they have not competed with high-level teams.
Naturally, I don't know much about high-level athletes.
Trying to get them to vote for players based on their abilities and accomplishments would be a shame for them.
At this point, fame is a good thing.
Famous people they naturally know.
However, if you are famous, you may not be able to perform well in this year, and you will not be qualified to be the World Footballer.
But they don't care.
They voted according to their fame, and as to whether they deserved it, then they begged him.
In 2004, the voting rules of the World Footballer of the Year were changed, with 80% of the votes for the managers and captains of the national teams and 20% for the International Professional Footballers' Union.
But such a change still does not change much in terms of the fairness of the selection.
Because the majority of the national teams are still the head coaches of the national teams, but the captain's vote is added.
Still cast according to fame.
This is why Xavi, who was dazzling in 2010 both for the national team and the club, was not scored a goal in the World Cup, and in the 1/4 finals, he lost to the Argentine teammate Messi of the German team with the largest loss score in the history of the World Cup team of 0:4, and missed the ridiculous result of the World Footballer.
Because Messi is more famous, Xavi is a midfielder, even if he moves in the center to revitalize Barcelona's lineup, how can he compare to Messi, who is easier to score.
That's the benefit of fame.
It's true in football, it's also true in film awards.
You want to be famous enough and the judges will naturally gravitate towards you.
Of course, in the selection of film awards, especially at the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards, there must be a prerequisite, that is, the quality cannot be bad.
After all, the selection of the Golden Horse Awards is decided by a few judges, not a large number of members of the academy like the Academy Awards.
Naturally, a few judges will not vote with their feet like the Oscars.
Therefore, in order to get another Golden Horse Award actress trophy for Lin Qingxia with greater certainty, it is quite necessary to get a screening.
