ps: The previous chapter was blocked again.

March and April are the regular off-season, and movies that are generally focused on production or large investment rarely choose this time period to be released.

Therefore, such a schedule will also be released with small cost and small production movies.

However, March and April 1991 were very exceptional, because this schedule was rare to release several movies starring first-line superstars.

And the reason why this situation occurred was that Liu Dehua, Zhou Xingchi and others were all let out to open studios, and a large number of film companies asked them to film, and they were also allowed to participate in investment.

As a result, in just one month in March, Liu Dehua had two movies released.

The first to be released is the Central Hero, in addition to Liu Dehua, there are also Liang Chaowei and Yuan Jieying, starring Mao Huijun.

Needless to say, the two male protagonists are both proper first-line, and the two actresses are also numbered, even if they are not first-line, they are also second-line.

But it's a pity that with such a cast, Central Hero is a romantic comedy, but he found Qiu Litao, who was a photographer, to be the director.

Of course, it's not that you can't find a photographer to be a director, and even directors who are photographers often produce masters, like Zhang Yimou and Gu Changwei, who are all photographers, and become masters when they are directors.

But Qiu Litao is not such a person, he is not good at romance films, nor comedy films, he is good at horror movies.

Other directors will always try their best to please the audience, but he unceremoniously makes the audience reflect in a disgusting brutality and bloodshed.

His favorite horror film is Kubrick's "The Shining", so he also hopes that what appears in his film is not a simple and crude horror, but an inadvertent "chill down the spine".

Like the Eight Immortals Hotel, which made Huang Qiusheng win the Academy Award, the pork barbecued pork bun was directed by Qiu Litao.

The film is recognized as the "pinnacle of Hong Kong-made cult films".

Therefore, Qiu Litao is also known as the grandmaster of Hong Kong-made cult films.

Of course, that's all for later.

At this time, Qiu Litao has not realized the type he is good at, and others are naturally even more unclear.

So, a director who is not good at romantic comedy movies made a romantic comedy, and the reputation can be imagined.

However, although the Central Hero movie has been complained about, with the blessing of big names such as Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, Yuan Jieying, etc., the box office of the Central Hero with a worrying reputation is still barely acceptable.

The box office on the first day was 2 million, the next day was 2.3 million, and on the third day, because it was a working day, the box office inevitably began to fall without surprise, winning 1.9 million.

Six million in three days, it looks pretty good.

However, the consequences of the film's poor reputation began to appear.

On the fourth day, it fell by more than 40 percent and the box office just exceeded one million.

After the cliff-like crash, the box office stabilized slightly, but it still continued to fall.

The difference in the box office in ten days is 210 million.

If this is still the case, it will be released for more than 20 days, and the box office will be 15 million.

However, another action comedy starring Andy Lau was released in 12 hours.

The shocking twelve-hour release will inevitably dilute the box office of the Central heroes.

And they are all starring Liu Dehua, for those audiences who only enter the cinema once or twice a year, two or three times, both movies are starring Liu Dehua, and if you choose one, you won't choose the other, except for Liu Dehua's fans, of course.

And the shocking twelve hours is a new release, and the publicity is stronger than the Central Hero, and the audience will inevitably have a much greater chance of choosing it.

Therefore, the box office of Central Heroes is basically 12 or 3 million to the top.

However, because of the participation of Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, Yuan Jieying and others, the production cost of this movie is very high, and the cost has just been recovered by relying on the Hong Kong box office alone.

It doesn't look like a good deal for investors.

But also because of the participation of Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, and Yuan Jieying, this film has sold the broadcast rights of nearly ten countries and regions in East Asia and Southeast Asia, such as South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, etc.

It is not a problem for investors to earn millions of dollars.

You see, it's just a few big stars, and then invest millions of dollars, and it took one or two days to shoot, and it only took two months before and after to earn back double or even more profits.

And with Liu Dehua, they are basically sure to make money and not lose money.

Such a business is not done by fools.

Even more exaggerated than the heroes of Central is the shocking twelve hours that have just been released.

Before this drama was released, the producer had already recovered its investment.

This is a popular action movie, or it was filmed in Singapore on location, starring Liu Dehua and Tan Yonglin, and he invested more than the heroes of Central.

However, because the Singapore government and Singapore's entertainment institutions are determined to develop the local film industry, the film industry is quite developed, covering the whole of East Asia and Southeast Asia, and Hong Kong filmmakers, known as Oriental Hollywood, are naturally very welcome to film.

The Singapore side is really fully cooperative, there are people to be available, there are policies to have policies, such as blocking beaches and the like without spending money on the crew at all, just say hello.

That's not all, Singapore also gave 50% of the investment amount for this film.

In other words, if the investment is 8 million, the Singapore government will support 4 million.

With this policy support, it will directly return half of the cost, plus the advertising placement of local companies in Singapore and several other companies, and the investors will return their capital after the film is filmed.

The box office also has the right to broadcast or something, and how much it sells is the income.

After the shocking 12-hour release, the word-of-mouth is better than that of the Central Hero, and the box office is much better.

After all, in terms of fans, Liang Chaowei is not as good as Tan Yonglin.

But even so, the theater's box office prediction for the shocking twelve hours is 20 million.

Because two days before the shocking twelve-hour release, Golden Harvest also released a gambling movie.

This is a big heroine movie, and it is still the most popular gambling film nowadays, but more importantly, this drama is a sequel to the gambling saint under the banner of the saint.

The overall lineup also continues the gambling saint, but Zhou Xingchi is replaced by Anita Mui, and Anita Mui plays the sister of Zhou Xingchi's character, Ah Xing, plus another heroine, Zheng Yuling.

What kind of box office is the gambling saint, even if its sequel does not have Zhou Xingchi, but with the signboard of the gambling saint, plus Anita Mui, Zheng Yuling, Wu Mengda, Zhong Zhentao and others, it can also attract a large number of audiences to buy tickets to enter the venue.

For this reason, the predictions of the 20 million box office in 12 hours are high.

What's more, ten days later, there will be a new Jingwumen starring Zhou Xingchi released.

was originally an ordinary March and April schedule, but for a time there was a kind of summer file, Spring Festival file lively and intense.
