Chapter 422: Salty and Wet Cinemas

Just when a group of superstars were celebrating the full moon for Qiao Feng's children, and Qiao Feng was thinking about how much his children's photos could be sold for to be worthy of his identity, Hong Kong movies also entered the Christmas file.

Hong Kong movies entered the Christmas file later than North America, North America began to enter the Christmas file in November, and the beginning of December in Hong Kong is just beginning, and it is only a general calculation.

The earliest one started was the newly established Xinbao Cinema Line, because it had just been established, and there was no film to be released on Debao's side, so it could only be used for any film, and the lack of film sources was like this, there was no qualification to pick and choose, no matter how bad it was, it would have to be put or it would lose money.

Therefore, the crime, drama, and action movies produced by Longxiang Pictures (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. are directed by Er Dongsheng, and "People's Heroes" starring Di Long, Liang Chaowei, Jin Yanling and others has become the opening work of Xinbao Cinemas.

Then the leftist cinema Shuangnan Cinema also released the movie Lightning Warrior produced by Yindu Organization, which is about self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam.

"People's Heroes" is taking the anti-trend route, the film obviously imitates the classic masterpiece "Hot Afternoon" in the plot, this police movie also describes the story of robbers and police, although the professional evaluation is very good, it is said that Er Dongsheng is a good actor and a good director is a good director, but no matter how good the professionals praise it, they don't use any fart, and the box office is not good.

This is the second collaboration between Liang Chaowei and Er Dongsheng, the first time is that he plays a psychopath, and this one is the second male lead, and Liang Chaowei also won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in the original time and space of this movie, but it is still a fart at the box office.

The choice of such a movie for the opening work also seems to indicate the sad future of Xinbao Cinema.

The lightning warriors released in Shuangnan Cinema are even worse than the people's heroes, but because the story of the counterattack against Vietnam is not well received in Hong Kong, it is normal that the two films were released for about half a month, and as a result, one got a box office of 3.9 million yuan, and the other got a box office of more than 3 million, which is not much worse.

You must know that Shuangnan Cinema is relatively niche in its leftist movies, and his box office is about the same as the box office of Xinbao Cinema, you can imagine what the people's heroes are like, and you can imagine what the new complaints about can only use such a movie as the opening movie.

This is not over, a week after the release of the People's Heroes, Xinbao Cinema released another movie that came to the door and wanted to release, this movie called Magic High is produced by Hong Kong Eagle Film Production Company.

When the producer of this movie found Xinbao Cinema, the two bosses of Xinbao Cinema, Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong, were quite happy and warmly welcomed, and even inexplicably had the illusion that this kind of person could find himself to release a movie, and that his Xinbao Cinema was very strong and would be stronger in the future.

The reason why Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong feel this way is because the producer of this movie is Xiang Huaqiang standing behind in addition to Hong Kong Eagle Film Production Company, and the two producers are Huang Ying, the boss of Hong Kong Eagle Film Company, and the other is Xiang Huaqiang.

It is well known that the relationship between Xiang Huaqiang and Qiao Feng is very good, and Yongsheng Company's movies have always been released in Longteng Company, but now suddenly his movies are not released in Longteng Company, but he got his own company, does it mean that Xiang Huaqiang and Qiao Feng have fallen out or that the appearance of their own Xinbao Cinema Line has given these independent companies without cinemas another better choice, isn't this Xiang Huaqiang holding the movie to be released in Xinbao Cinema?

With such an idea, Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong treated this magic very seriously, and they did their best to arrange the film and publicize it.

As a result, as soon as the movie was released, Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong were forced to do so, this movie was even worse than the movie of the People's Heroes, it was only released for six days, and they were drawn with the People's Heroes on the seventh day, and the final box office only got more than two million.

Look at this miserable box office, Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong woke up from a dream, and then learned from other channels that the movie was first brought to Longteng Cinemas, but Longteng Cinemas felt that the movie was too bad to be released, and finally Xiang Huaqiang asked Huang Ying to take the movie to Xinbao Cinemas for release with the idea of how much he could earn.

Knowing that his theater was used as a spare tire, oh, no, it was a garbage recycling station, Chen Rongmei and Feng Bingzhong almost vomited three liters of blood.

On the contrary, although Longteng Cinema has not had a good film in the Christmas file except for the ghost love, and the two films made in the United States, Rain Man, there are no very good films, but whether it is the comedy produced by Baohe or the supernatural kung fu comedy Mr. Phantom or Zeng Zhiwei, Zhong Chuhong's movie Golden Swallow that follows the trend of A Chinese Ghost Story is very good at the box office, and the worst Golden Swallow seems to be able to get more than 10 million box office, and the wrong label has nearly 20 million box office within 20 days of release, and Mr. Phantom got it in 10 days after it was released.

Qiao Feng and his family spent Christmas in the United States with a full moon and New Year's Day after Christmas, and in Hong Kong, which entered January 1, 1988, Xinbao Cinema finally released a movie that was okay.

The reason why it is okay is because there are still a lot of stars in the newly released movie, including Chen Yishi, who ran for Miss Hong Kong with Li Zhi in 86 and was elected Miss Peace, and Zhang Manyu, the runner-up of Sister Hong Kong who is trying to develop in the direction of acting skills in the later stage of the vase, as well as Hong Kong's Xiulan Deng Bo, Feng Baobao and Wu Jiali, in addition to well-known male stars such as Feng Quifan and Tang Zhenye and Qi Qin.

The lineup is not bad, but what is even better is the subject matter of this film, which is a Grade III film that reflects the social reality of Hong Kong today, telling the sad story of five call girls.

Female star Jenny (played by Zhang Manyu) is an innocent movie star on the surface, but in fact she is a high-level call girl; Meifeng (played by Feng Baobao) because her husband suffers from kidney disease, she can't pay the high cost of medicine, so she has to fall into the red dust; Shanshan (played by Wu Jiali) is cold and arrogant by nature, her mother is terminally ill, and she has to put down her body in order to maintain her mother's life; Lingyu (played by Chen Yishi) is from the mainland, optimistic and cheerful by nature, living in the same house with Shanshan and taking care of each other; Juanjuan (played by Yu Qianwen) is young and rebellious, because her stepfather does something to her, but her mother can't do anything, so she runs away from home, but she meets someone unladylike, and her boyfriend owes a loan shark to force her to take customers to pay off her debts.

There is nothing to say about the plot, and in the eighties and nineties, Hong Kong made movies about special service personnel, and they were always made with warmth and affection. Anyway, everyone has a hardship when they go to the sea, and the hardship is nothing more than that: forced to make a living, treating her mother and treating her husband, escaping from her stepfather and being abducted by a little white face, are all forced pathos, although the social ethics are not deep enough, but the most important thing is that this film has missed points.

Like Zhang Manyu, Feng Baobao, Wu Jiali, Chen Yishi, of course they didn't leak, what was leaked was Yu Qianwen, and there wasn't much missing, but it didn't matter how much it was, it didn't matter if it was Zhang Manyu or not, the most important thing was that there was a gimmick and a burst point when this thing was said.

Miss Hong Kong, Miss Asia shoots erotica (because at this time there is no movie rating in Hong Kong, and it will not come out until the end of the year), this title alone is enough to attract people's attention, and then let men hunt for ideas.

Then as soon as this movie was released, it received a considerable degree of attention and popularity, but it was basically men with hormones, and they all wanted to see what Zhang Manyu and they revealed.

As a result, after reading it, I found out that I had been deceived, the title party of the dog day.

No amount of cursing can change the fact that this movie sold well at the box office, but because it was just established, it screened, and it was not what everyone wanted to see, so Xinbao Cinema was pressed by the angry media with the title of salty and wet cinema.

The box office has made money, but the reputation has become even more stinky, and the audience is embarrassed to buy tickets to watch movies in Xinbao Cinema, for fear that others will see them and think that they are perverts watching salty and wet movies, and salty and wet cinemas have become a joke for a while.
