Erotica, horror films have always been the most lucrative film genres.

And it belongs to the type of low investment and high return.

In 1972, "Deep Throat" premiered in Times Square in New York. Hong Kong, far away on this side of the world, also released a strange martial arts called "Love Slave".

"Love Slave" is about the heroine Love Slave who is forced into a brothel, and the brothel old bustard Aunt Chun falls in love with this girl.

This kind of story, when told now, is not avant-garde, and the nude shots of the film are limited to a few shots.

But the kind of sexual suggestion treatment of "holding the pipa and half-covering his face" is even more intriguing.

Especially in the same year, the hit of "The Great Warlord" directed by Li Hanxiang completely ignited the trend of Shaw Brothers' Fengyue films.

Shaw, who took advantage of the trend, worked hard to establish a good relationship with the government and get passes for one "colored film" after another.

In its heyday, Fengyue Films occupied almost half of the Shaw Brothers!

After that, the classification system was issued, and then, Hong Kong's third-level films ushered in the peak moment!

Then, in 1991 alone, 1,337 films were sent for inspection, and 42 third-level films were submitted...

More than half of them are made up by the old boys of various small clubs, and they really start filming today, edit tomorrow, and release the day after tomorrow...

In ten days, more than 40 tertiary films can be released...

Riding horses, Japanese Aiwei is not so fast!

This is also the reason why the country has not dared to let go of the grading system, believe it or not, once the country opens up, Zhang Junsheng will dare to be the first person in tertiary films!

……

Wen Ziren frowned slightly: "Fifty Shades of Grey"... It's a weird name..."

“… In fact, it should be translated as "Fifty Dark Sides of Gray", anyway, you just remember to get the film and television adaptation rights!"

“… ok！”

Wen Ziren nodded, didn't ask anything, he probably knew the type of story, and changed the topic: "What do you think of "Red Flame Battlefield"?"

“… DC's comics, except for Superman and Batman, there are not many well-known characters in the world, I'm not very optimistic, let's release it first!"

Zhang Junsheng sighed: "It's a pity, most of DC's copyright is in the hands of Warner Bros., I really want to buy it!"

"Red Flame Battlefield" is also from the DC series, in fact, the entire DC was acquired by Warner Bros., why didn't they shoot it themselves?

It's not because I'm not optimistic!

Wen Ziren smiled and suggested: "Actually, IA Comics is not bad, do you want to buy it?"

"I've already got the copyright for The Walking Dead, and I asked for the copyright for Reborn that day, and they said it was in Warner Bros...."

One of the first releases of "Rebirth" IA, released in May 1992, sold 17 million copies, setting a record for that year!

As the champion of independent comics, and also the holder of the record for the highest sales of comics in North America to date, it stands to reason that there should be development value, but... The story is particularly dark, treacherous, and bloody: the protagonists of the manga are a group of "people who do not die well", resurrected by the devil with a grudge, and return to the world for revenge...

It is difficult to change the simultaneous release of the world, and it is estimated that this is the main reason for the box office failure of the movie of the same name in 97.

"What about the dark horse comics?"

“… He offered $3.7 billion, which is too expensive!"

Dark Horse Comics is the third largest comic company in North America after Marvel and DC, with IPs such as "Hellboy", "Sin City", "Predator", "Rabbit Samurai", etc.

Although Disney has benefited a lot from the acquisition of Marvel in recent years, it does not mean that Dark Horse Animation can take the opportunity to rob!

Marvel can sell for $42.4 billion, and that's because Marvel's superheroes have taken the world by storm.

Why are you a dark horse?

"No matter how rich I am, I won't be such a loser!"

Wen Ziren suddenly changed the subject: "Actually, I also want to make a big production..."

“… Big production?"

"The Hunger Games, I want to shoot it myself!"

“… Of course you can, but the Conjuring horror universe doesn't care?"

Wen Ziren shut up...

"In this way, in addition to the "Conjuring" universe in the past few years, you will also see if there are any suitable projects... After the release of "The Conjuring", you will transform again!"

And he added: "The investment ceiling is $200 million!"

……

Of course, Wen Ziren has a big production, and "Fast and Furious 7" and "Aquaman" are very good big-budget commercial films.

However, he is still busy with his beloved horror films, and he probably doesn't have much time to make big productions.

The Toronto Film Festival People's Choice Award was released, and "Untouchable" won the second place, and the first place was "The King's Speech"...

It must be explained that there are three places in the People's Choice Award, and the third place is "Pretty Boy".

After all, Harvey Weinstein has been rooted in the North American film industry for more than 20 years, and his connections are not comparable to Catherine, a 'newcomer' who has only been in the industry for three years.

It is said that after the release of "Untouchable", relying on Xiao Lizi's strong appeal and uninterrupted publicity from the early days of filming, it won a box office score of $44 million in the first weekend, and strongly occupied the first place in the North American box office charts.

It must be explained that October has always been an off-season, and 40 million is already a very good result...

And "Untouchable" follows a long-term screening strategy, and will stay in theaters for at least four months.

The word of mouth is very good.

"The greatest respect for people with disabilities is not to treat them as disabled. Respect is higher than love and compassion!"

This is the light of two diametrically opposed lives and personalities colliding together. Because of the stripping of mercy, it seems even more humble and arrogant. Real people and real things are undoubtedly a plus. ”

"Leonardo finally got rid of the tension that I wanted to do well, and throughout the movie, his performance was like a smooth stream..."

In the second week of release, the number of theaters in "Untouchable" increased to 3,500, and on Monday, it won 1,400 games at the box office, and there was an increase on weekdays...

On the eve of the domestic release, there were bad voices, and there were a group of voices on the Internet who thought that Zhang Junsheng was licking a dog...

Muyang dog...

……

"It was the Chinese groups in Los Angeles who protested, and they felt that 'Untouchable' damaged the image of the Chinese..."

Zhang Junsheng, who had returned to China, received a call from Catherine.

“… Is it spontaneous or organized?"

"It should be spontaneous!"

Well, once again, it turns out that these guys are really idle!

If you think that "Lethal Weapon 4" can be protested, this time "Untouchable" is even more excessive, and the character played by Wang Bo actually became a servant!

This undoubtedly challenged the fragile nerves of those people, so they attacked them in groups.

Their way is nothing more than arguing on the Internet and tabloids, demanding an apology from Wang Bo and Zhang Junsheng...

It's not a Japanese to lose, otherwise I would probably have to apologize ...

They don't think about it at all, and the role played by Wang Bo is not a servant, but a caretaker...

If you have been in the United States for a long time, you will know that these Chinese people have a very rational concept: whites dare not fight, blacks can't fight, so they can only make do with their own people.

This kind of thing doesn't have a big impact in the United States, after all, it's not yet the most intense time of the awards season...

However, in the era of the Internet, a group of international students poked this kind of remarks back to China...
