() "New Dragon Gate Inn" was released in Hong Kong for a week, and the box office reached 19.92 million Hong Kong dollars, which means that the box office of this film in Hong Kong will definitely exceed 30 million Hong Kong dollars or even 40 million Hong Kong dollars.

Wu Jianye, a mainland director, no one questions whether a mainland director's film will be unsuitable when it comes to Xiangjiang, and no one will doubt his talent and control of the film market with two consecutive directors with a box office of more than 30 million.

The most important thing is that the review of the movie "New Dragon Gate Inn" in the Xiangjiang film industry has also achieved remarkable results.

The latest issue of "Black and White Reflection", the score of "New Dragon Gate Inn" has reached 9.0 points, which is enough to prove the popularity of this movie in the hearts of Xiangjiang audiences.

"One of the best martial arts movies I've seen so far, not one!"

"Desert, yellow sand, I hope I am Zhou Huai'an!"

"There is a river and lake in everyone's mind, and the Dragon Gate Inn is the river and lake in my mind!"

.......

In these words of praise, it can be seen that Xiangjiang audiences love this movie, in fact, before this, Xiangjiang's martial arts movies have been lonely, just like the zombie theme that emerged in the first two years, with the success of "Mr. Zombie", Xiangjiang has appeared in a swarm of countless movies of the same type.

In just a few years, movies with this theme have been played to death by Xiangjiang's film company, and now only Lin Zhengying is left alone to support zombie-themed movies.

And the same is true for martial arts films, before that, martial arts films were once the box office guarantee of Xiangjiang movies, but like zombie movies, they were played to death.

At that time, Xiangjiang's martial arts movies pursued the kung fu of hard bridges and hard horses, such as the "One-armed Knife" series, there were five movies in the entire series, and they were shot by different film companies, because of this theme, Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest were still in court against Bo Gongtang.

But with the aesthetic fatigue of moviegoers for this type of movie, when they entered the eighties, martial arts movies were completely lonely, which is why everyone was not optimistic about Wu Jianye before.

In fact, not only the audience messages on "Black and White Image" are full of praise for "New Dragon Gate Inn", but they are almost overwhelmed.

Even the "Film Fortnightly", which has been facing Fengge Entertainment, has published an unprecedented article praising "New Dragon Gate Inn".

“....... This is destined to be a film that should not leave a strong mark in the history of martial arts films, and you can even say that this movie has opened another chapter of martial arts movies. is different, the small inn has deduced the love and hatred of the family and the country, and the most important thing is that this movie has also made a huge reform for the way martial arts movies are expressed, and the previous way of hard bridges and hard horses has become outdated!"

"Director Wu Jianye ingeniously showed everyone another way of martial arts, the original fight scenes can be so romantic, so tense, especially the last battle in the desert, people watch the blood rush at the same time, but also have to be attracted by the picture inside......."

Looking at the praise of "Film Fortnightly", Jiang Zhiqiang sat opposite Wu Jianye and said with a smile: "The Academy Awards have already confessed, and they found me two days ago, hoping that we can put aside our previous suspicions, and at the same time propose to meet you." ”

The Academy Awards are not cowardly, with Fengge Entertainment taking Debao Haoting in their hands, now it can be said that Fengge Entertainment is the dominant family, if the Academy Awards want to be held in Xiangjiang again, then it must be supported by Fengge Entertainment, otherwise, the Academy Awards are destined to become a short-lived awards ceremony.

Wu Jianye gently tapped on the table and said, "You can talk to them on behalf of Fengge Entertainment, and I will be gone!"

Jiang Zhiqiang nodded and said, "Then do we support them, or do we ......?"

Wu Jianye said with a smile: "Forget it, there is no need to kill them all for the Academy Awards, but you can't mess around with them by themselves, you tell them that they can set up an acting association in Xiangjiang, and the Performing Arts Association, "Black and White Image", and "Film Fortnightly" will jointly host the Academy Awards, and form an Academy Awards jury." ”

Before the Academy Awards, for the market of Wanwan, "The Last Emperor" was given a zero egg, Wu Jianye backhanded a grand celebration banquet, which made the Academy Awards lose face, this year's awards ceremony, originally thought that the strong rise of Debao Haoting was an impact on Fengge Entertainment, but as a result, Debao Haoting was acquired by Fengge Entertainment again!

So at that time, Yu Zheng could be said to be no less depressed than Lin Jianyue and others at that time.

Seeing that Fengge Entertainment has shown a trend of dominating the world in Xiangjiang, Yu Zheng also knows that if he doesn't bow his head, it is estimated that there will be no way to hold the Academy Awards next year!

"Can the Film Fortnight agree?" Jiang asked with some uncertainty.

"Tell them that if they don't agree, we will contact "Black and White Reflection" to hold another film awards ceremony in Xiangjiang!" Wu Jianye said domineeringly.

Jiang Zhiqiang smiled: "I understand!"

At this time, Jiang Zhiqiang's secretary walked in and said, "Director Wu, Director Tsui Hark and Miss Shi Nansheng are here, they want to see you!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Please come in!"

Soon Xu Wei and Shi Nansheng walked in, and Jiang Zhiqiang saw this and got up and returned to his office.

"Director Wu, I was like talking to you at the premiere before. After Xu Yan saw Wu Jianye, he smiled happily.

Before, he thought that Wu Jianye didn't understand Xiangjiang's movies, and then added the pride in his heart, so he didn't think that Wu Jianye could make such a good movie, but when he really saw Wu Jianye's "New Dragon Gate Inn", his heart was completely shocked!

The most important thing is that the box office of the movie "New Dragon Gate Inn" has fully demonstrated to the industry insiders in Xiangjiang what it means to be a genius, a mainland director can make a movie that is so in line with the aesthetics of the audience in Xiangjiang, and it is still a martial arts movie that has already been sentenced to death in Xiangjiang, which shocked them even more.

If the previous "The Last Emperor" made people in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry know Wu Jianye's other identity director!

Then now "New Dragon Gate Inn" has made them completely convinced of Wu Jianye.

can make martial arts movies so successful, and can also make the audience feel refreshed, which can no longer be simply described as excellent.

At this time, they remembered that Wu Jianye had won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival and the director of the Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival!

In fact, this is not to blame these people in Xiangjiang for being too forgetful, mainly because a consortium like Fengge Entertainment has too much influence in Xiangjiang, even if they know that Wu Jianye is a director, but when they mention Wu Jianye, they think more of the influence of a large consortium with a market value of tens of billions.

Even if he released a "The Last Emperor" in Xiangjiang before, but to put it bluntly, the movie "The Last Emperor" is still a little incompatible with the environment of Xiangjiang, but now this "New Dragon Gate Inn" is different.

On the first day of the release of this movie in Xiangjiang, it hit the G-spot of Xiangjiang audiences, and now when they mention Wu Jianye again, they will finally take it seriously and add the word director in front.

And people like Xu Wei and Zou Wenhuai no longer think in their hearts that Wu Jianye is just rich and capricious, and making movies is pure and self-entertaining.

Now Xu Kai has come over in person, in fact, he wants to exchange his experience in shooting martial arts films with Wu Jianye, after all, Xu Kai himself has always had the idea of wanting to shoot martial arts films.

"The core content of martial arts movies must have a proper story, followed by his fight scenes, but the fight scenes cannot always be static, there should also be innovation, and this innovation must serve the audience......."

Wu Jianye talked about his understanding of martial arts movies, and Xu Jian would also meet a few sentences next to him from time to time, and sometimes he would even feel that what Wu Jianye said was wrong, and refute it, Shi Nansheng on the side was also shocked, for fear that Xu Jianye's straightforwardness would make Wu Jianye dissatisfied, but when he saw that Wu Jianye was also red-faced and arguing with Xu Yan about the use of a certain shot.

The worry in her heart suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by another understanding of Wu Jianye, because of this serious attitude, she often saw in Xu Wei, this is the love and responsibility of movies.

It is with this understanding that Shi Nansheng is not worried at all at this time, the purpose of her coming to Fengge Entertainment this time.

She is different from Xu Wei, Xu Wei came here this time purely in "New Dragon Gate Inn" directed by Wu Jianye, and found a lot of common language, and he wanted to exchange these experiences with Wu Jianye.

And Shi Nansheng is thinking that he can find investment here in Wu Jianye, after all, Xu Wei is also ready to shoot a martial arts movie!

In fact, this is also Shi Nansheng's inherent impression of martial arts movies that has not fundamentally changed, according to the urine nature of the Xiangjiang film industry, with the success of "New Dragon Gate Inn", martial arts movies will definitely have a second spring, and Lei Juekun will no longer refuse Xu Wei's request as before.

The two sides chatted for a long time, and then seeing that it was getting late, Shi Nansheng smiled beside him: "Okay, you two have been chatting for more than two hours, Director Wu, let's do the east in the evening, let's sit together?"

When Shi Nansheng was about to have dinner together in the evening, he discussed with Wu Jianye about investing in Xu Yan's new movie.

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "I guess it's not possible today, I promised to go home for dinner!"

Wu Jianye has been in Xiangjiang for the past few days, either busy with the release of "New Dragon Gate Inn", or busy dealing with the internal affairs of Debao Mansion, and has not gone home properly, thinking about Gong Zhen and Wu Qichen at home, Wu Jianye promised them to go home for dinner at noon today.

Shi Nansheng showed a hint of disappointment, and then said, "Director Wu, there is actually one more thing I want to talk to you about!" Since there is no way to eat together, it is best to bring it up now while the iron is hot.

Wu Jianye looked at the time and said with a smile: "If there is nothing to do at night, then it is better to go home with me, and we will talk about it when we go back!"

Xu Yan originally wanted to refuse, but Shi Nansheng immediately smiled beside him: "If we don't delay Director Wu's homestay meal, then we will take the liberty of disturbing it!"

Wu Jianye smiled: "It's nothing!"

Shi Nansheng smiled: "Then disturb Director Wu!"

Then Shi Nansheng dragged Xu Yan back to Repulse Bay with Wu Jianye.

On the way, Shi Nansheng gave Xu Yan a look that listened to me.

Now how many people in Xiangjiang want to have a relationship with Wu Jianye, but they have no way, and now Wu Jianye personally invited them to his home as guests, how could this kind of thing be missed.

However, when the car drove to Repulse Bay and was about to arrive at Wu Jianye Villa, the driver stopped.

"Boss, there is Zheng Weng's car in front, it seems that it has stopped and is waiting for you!"

"Let's go over!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

In the end, Wu Jianye's car and Zheng Yutong's car were parked side by side, and Wu Jianye and Zheng Yutong saw each other across the car.

"Wu Sheng, I just saw that it was your car, let's play cards together tonight, right?" Zheng Yutong invited, tonight is the fixed entertainment time of their big D meeting, Zheng Yutong happened to see Wu Jianye's car, so he stopped to invite Wu Jianye.

Wu Jianye glanced at Xu Wei and Shi Nansheng, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it won't work today, there are guests at home!"

Zheng Yutong nodded, and didn't force it, this kind of activity was not mandatory to participate in the first place, so he smiled: "Okay, wait until you have time to play two shots together in the next two days!"

"I can't ask for it!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

Then the two said goodbye through the window.

Shi Nansheng and Xu Wei glanced at each other, although they knew that Wu Jianye had a high voice in the Xiangjiang business community, but they had always heard that they had heard that now they saw Zheng Yutong personally invite Wu Jianye to participate in the card game of the Big D meeting, but Wu Jianye refused because of the two of them.

This kind of shock of seeing is believing is still very shocking to them, and there is even a trace of joy and pride in their hearts.

What about billionaires, Director Wu doesn't want to eat with us yet.......

When the car drove into the Repulse Bay Villa, the two were also shocked by the luxurious decoration of the villa, and the top villa in Xiangjiang is really not comparable to ordinary villas.

When they walked into the living room, the two also found an old friend.

"Honggu, what's wrong with you?" Shi Nansheng showed a surprised expression when he saw Zhong Chuhong, and his first thought was between Zhong Chuhong and Wu Jianye.......

However, Zhong Chuhong quickly dispelled his doubts: "Gong Yin and I are good friends, and it just so happened that there was nothing to do today, so I came to see her!"

Shi Nansheng then remembered that Zhong Chuhong and Gong Bin had a good relationship, which was a secret that Xiangjiang had long been open.

Shi Nansheng and Gong Bin also knew each other, but they didn't have much communication before, but now that they have Zhong Chuhong as the middleman, the three women quickly chatted together very lively, and Wu Jianye took Wu Qichen in Gong Bin arms, hugged him, and came to the study with Xu Wei.
