On the weekend of July 7, at Pacific Place Cinemas, "Power King" premiered.

Gu Meng, together with his family, artists under Craft, and the Liwang crew attended the premiere ceremony.

Many Xiangjiang stars were invited to come to cheer, and all the stars in Xiangjiang came.

Fans watched the stars appear non-stop and exclaimed.

Reporters kept pressing the shutter or asking questions loudly, which was very lively.

Among this group of people, there is also a special type of people who are watching from the sidelines, they are professional film critics, and Wen Qi is one of them.

Wen Qi is 38 years old, an associate professor and professional film critic at Chinese University, a great talent, and is well-known among Xiangjiang film critics.

In March this year, the three major film companies of Jiangyi, Jiahe, and Yindu jointly produced "Liwang", Gu Meng's new action movie, which is said to have an initial investment of 10 million US dollars, and then pursued another 5 million US dollars.

A total of 100 million Hong Kong dollars were invested in this film.

In the history of Hong Kong films, the investment amount ranks first.

In this regard, Wen Qi wrote a special review article, analyzed layer by layer, summarized five unfavorable factors, and asserted that this movie will inevitably lose money.

He still thinks so.

The box office champion of Xiangjiang movies is only over 50 million, and Liwang has invested more than 100 million, which will inevitably lose money, as for the box office in other cities?

Hong Kong movies have always been popular in Hong Kong, and there are not many blockbuster movies outside Hong Kong.

Liwang wants to earn back 100 million, is it possible?

Wen Qi shook her head.

"Haha, Mr. Wen, you're here too!"

Wen Qi turned his head, and the person who came was his former student Niu Paul.

He once opened a film and television criticism class in Chinese, this Niu Paul came to take a few classes, and his performance was very good, and he gave more guidance.

Under his introduction, Paul Niu became a film critic, and the two became peers.

It's just that this student has no integrity, and he doesn't like to see this student and his peers.

Among the film critics, there are professional and ethical film critics, who only judge the quality of the film and their feelings, and do not pay much attention to the box office and monetary interests.

There are also unscrupulous film critics, they just have bad money and say good things, and they smell of copper, Niu Paul is this kind of person.

He lifted his glasses and said casually, "Paul, you're here again?"

"Hey, hey!"

Niu Paul understood the meaning of the other party's words, and smiled indifferently.

Film critics take money to do things is common in all entertainment circles, what exists is necessary, this kind of money is not always asked for by others, it is not easy to make money, why bother with money? I don't want Mr. Wen to be so rich.

"Teacher Wen, it's really not this time!"

Niu Paul smiled, the teacher shook his face, and tried his best to be a student.

"This time, the Liwang publicity and distribution department behaved very coldly, and did not pay a penny to the public relations film critic, but only sent an invitation to the newspaper, and it seems that he is not afraid of being scolded by others"

Wen Qi was a little surprised, it is rumored that Gu Meng is very rich, how can he not even give up a little public relations expenses, is he not afraid of annoying film critics and being splashed with dirty water?

Or or

He is very confident in this movie and is not afraid of people finding faults?

Wen Qi pressed his doubts and said with a smile, "Paul, Gu Meng doesn't give money, do you scold?"

Niu Paul shook his head, "Don't dare, Gu Meng cleans up the boxing champion, he only needs one punch, give me two more guts, and I don't dare to criticize him"

Wen Qi smiled lightly, since Gu Meng solved Tyson with one punch, the name has been loud, some people used to say that they can't send Zhou Yanfa anymore, and they can't be Zhong Chuhong anymore, but now they have another sentence, no matter how fierce Gu Meng is.

In the Chinese circle, everyone used to worship Bruce Lee's kung fu the most, and now they worship Gu Meng's fist the most, saying that he punched the boxing king of the United States, and he can be called the first person in the rivers and lakes.

"Paul, we are all cultured people, and we are unyielding in our might, how can you just because you are afraid of retaliation..."

He didn't finish this sentence, because he realized that he was teaching the wrong person, and that Niu Paul was not a good student, but a rotten cub who happened to be a bad money.

Tell this kind of person that the mighty cannot be bent, and the poor and lowly cannot be moved?

Waste of saliva in vain.

"Haha, what Teacher Wen taught is this!"

Niu Paul gave a thumbs up and praised, "I heard that after Gu Sheng saw the comment written by Mr. Wen last time, he laughed and said that you are right to criticize, Mr. Wen is really a model for my generation, and he is mighty and unyielding."

"Ahem, don't dare to be!"

Wen Qi lifted her glasses, feeling a little refreshed.

He also heard about this rumor, Gu Chaoren watched his criticism of King Li in the crew, not only was he not angry, but he also smiled and praised it for being reasonable.

This incident shows that Superman is an atmospheric person, and it also shows that he is a stubborn person, knowing that King Li is going to fight the street and still die without repentance, how can this kind of person say?

I don't understand!

"Tut, Zhou Yanfa, Lin Qingxia, Mei Yanfang are all here to cheer, Shao Liushu Fang Yihua, Hong Jingbao, Li Lianjie, and Chen Yuanlong, who is rumored to have conflicts with Superman, are here, big bosses, big directors and big stars are all here to cheer, it's really a big scene!"

Niu Paul looked at the red carpet in the square at the entrance and was amazed.

"Gu Chao's family is famous and famous, and he has formed a strategic alliance with Jiahe Yindu, which is equivalent to controlling half of the Xiangjiang entertainment industry, who dares not to give face when his movie premieres?"

Wen Qi said disapprovingly.

"Teacher Wen, you can see this scene, do you still insist that King Li wants to hit the street?"

Niu Paul pointed to the big scene in the square and asked with a smile.

"Of course!"

Wen Qi said confidently, "In the first half of this year, the films 'Judge of the Dead', 'Trick Expert' and 'Love Saint' starring Zhou Xingchi have all achieved good results, and the judge of death has won more than 50 million box office, which is likely to be the box office champion this year.

This shows that there is a big market for nonsensical movies in Xiangjiang, and Liwang will be released at this time, not taking up the time!"

He paused and said, "Xiangjiang is a small place, the total box office is small, the box office champion is only 40 or 50 million, Liwang has invested hundreds of millions of yuan, how to return to the capital, this is called not taking profits"

He smiled confidently, "The movie King of Power does not occupy the sky and does not occupy the profit, and if you go against the trend, you will inevitably hit the street!"

"Hehe, Mr. Wen, that's a good point!"

Niu Paul smiled and said, "It's just that the time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people."

Liwang is jointly created by the three major film companies of Craftsman, Jiahe and Yindu, which is human.

Gu Sheng has a wide range of contacts and friends all over the world.

Before starting filming, Gu used his connections to pull in millions of dollars in sponsorships from everywhere.

Before the movie was released, Gu Sheng's friend won the overseas copyright at a high price, and I heard that it was sold for tens of millions of dollars.

This is also the people.

In the last boxing championship challenge, Gu Sheng defeated the United States boxing champion Tyson with one punch and won the support of countless people.

Niu Paul smiled and pointed to the lively scene in the square, "Teacher Wen, look at this lively scene, isn't it just taking advantage of people?"

Wen Qi's face darkened slightly, glanced at him and said, "Not bad, I've seen it recently!"

"It's all taught by Mr. Wen well," Niu Paul said with a smile.

"Hmph, don't talk about any people, do you think you will win if you take advantage of people?"

Wen Qi shook her head, "In the end, a film still has to rely on quality, and only relying on friends and fans to support the show will consume popularity, and if you make money, you will lose, understand?"

"The teacher is right! Quality first, quality first"

Niu Paul didn't want to argue with the teacher, and suddenly saw the person in front of him walking inside.

He reminded, "Mr. Wen, the premiere has begun, let's go inside!"

"Good!"
