"Mr. Zombie 4" took over the baton and continued to compete in the summer file when the happy girl group was popular all over Asia.

Their time is really not bad, it will be released in early August, and 14 days later it will be "Overlord Flower 3".

If "Mr. Zombie 4" is as powerful as "Mr. Zombie 3", they can get a total box office of no less than 400 million in Asia just by adding about two weeks and 14 days in this first weekend.

What makes them even more reassured is that the European copyright buyout that ended early has already reached 20 million US dollars.

With this buyout fee, all the production costs and publicity expenses of "Mr. Zombie 4" have been recovered, and it has earned about 60 million Hong Kong dollars.

The suspense now is just how much "Mr. Zombie 4" has earned.

However, the trend of "Mr. Zombie 4" is a big surprise.

The box office of 210 million Hong Kong dollars in Asia in the first weekend made Hung Jinbao set up a celebration banquet for the first time.

But the box office plummeted to 120 million Hong Kong dollars in the second week, which made everyone stunned.

In the third week, "Mr. Zombie 4" only earned 40 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office.

40 million Hong Kong dollars!?

Not kidding, right?

Although this is due to the fact that "Overlord Flower 2" was released for three days over the weekend, it is definitely not the normal result of a movie of the level of "Mr. Zombie 4", let alone the reason for their rout.

Even in the first two years, "Mr. Zombie 2" did not lose so badly in the face of "Overlord Flower", which can basically be regarded as half a catty.

Not to mention that "Mr. Zombie 3" broke so many records last year, triggering a series of praise, and even the total box office in Europe and the United States reached 180 million US dollars.

This is also the reason why "Mr. Zombie 4" has not yet been released, and it was bought out of the European and American copyrights by United Arts Film Company for a sky-high price of 20 million US dollars.

This time, "Mr. Zombie 4", which was released in Europe and the United States at the same time as Asia, also had a considerable decline compared with the previous third part, and the box office was only $60 million in almost three weeks.

According to the consistent 8-week release data, "Mr. Zombie 4" can reach a box office of 100 million US dollars, which is already thankful.

With the addition of videotape revenue, Lianyi Film Company can still have a profit of about 35 million US dollars, but it is much less than the previous "Mr. Zombie 3".

This also made the manager in charge of buying the film reprimanded, and they wanted to be more careful and stingy when they wanted to buy the rights of Xiangjiang Film next time.

However, although the results are much worse than the previous one, according to the contracts signed by Lin Zhengying and the producer Baohe, the distributor Jiahe and Kirin, his "Mr. Zombie 4" can get at least 80 million Hong Kong dollars.

If the revenue of European and American videotapes is a little more, it is not impossible to reach 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

But Lin Zhengying is definitely not a money-greedy person.

Seeing such sluggish results, after the box office came out in the third week, he announced that he would only receive the same 30 million dividends as the third part, and give up the rest of the excess dividends.

No one said that he should not be a hero at all, everyone praised Lin Zhengying for being a gentleman!

Although the results of "Mr. Zombie 4" are not as much as expected, as mentioned earlier, "Mr. Zombie 4" has earned 60 million just by selling the copyright in Europe and the United States.

Then the Asian box office will have 370 million Hong Kong dollars in three weeks, and after 6 weeks, there will still be at least 400 million box office revenue, and Baohe Company's share is about 150 million.

It's all pure gain!

made so much money, Lin Zhengying did not get the director's salary, but received dividends from the director's and starring's salary.

If he doesn't take a penny, what will Lin Zhengying and the group of employee brothers who follow him eat?

Xiangjiang is an economic society, no one can talk about any contribution without money, and you can get paid for your efforts.

Therefore, in the newspapers, magazines and film and television circles in Hong Kong, Lin Zhengying's behavior is highly praised.

Lin Zhengying behaved so singlely, of course Hong Jinbao was very happy.

But in Xiangjiang, everyone has to be a good person.

This time, not to mention Hung Jinbao's net profit exceeded 210 million Hong Kong dollars, and he gave Lin Zhengying 30 million, and he also had 180 million.

Moreover, in the last "Mr. Zombie 3", Hung Jinbao's net profit exceeded 300 million Hong Kong dollars!

If the director and starring actor automatically takes less money because his results do not meet expectations, and your boss doesn't say a word, it seems that he is very greedy for money and has no morality.

Hung Jinbao naturally can't do this.

So after Lin Zhengying announced this, Hong Jinbao hurriedly accepted an interview with reporters, claiming that this time for the small setback, everyone is responsible and did not do a good job, so he will still give Lin Zhengying a dividend of 50 million Hong Kong dollars.

Not to mention how the two of them pulled this money, in fact, what everyone pays more attention to is why the results of "Mr. Zombie 4" are so much worse.

Of course, someone jumped out immediately, saying that although the four scripts of "Mr. Zombie" were all written by Jun Shao, from the third part, the people around Lin Zhengying have already told reporters that Lin Zhengying has revised a lot of scripts by himself.

In the fourth part, Lin Zhengying changed more than half.

Even this matter Yin Jun agreed, but Lin Zhengying's drastic changes must be responsible for the decline in performance.

After all, everyone knows that if Lin Zhengying doesn't change the script too much, the results of "Mr. Zombie 4" will definitely be much better than now.

Then there were also people discussing, saying that Lin Zhengying has changed now, not to spend more energy to discover zombie culture, but to find more stars to join the movie.

For example, superstars such as Huang Yuanshen, Zheng Shaoqiu, Wen Bixia, and Yuan Biao have all appeared in "Mr. Zombie 4".

But in terms of overall effect, they are not as good as Xu Guanying and a few other previously unknown supporting actors.

Big stars have the identity and status of big stars, whether it is funny or the overall fit, they are a little out of line with the atmosphere of the "Mr. Zombie" series.

This point, even their fans, have such an evaluation after watching the movie.

What's more, the "Mr. Zombie" series is released every year, and the audience has actually entered visual fatigue.

No matter how Lin Zhengying excavates zombie culture, how to link comedy with the plot, how to add various interesting and thrilling scenes, and the special effects are improving every time, but every year is looking at familiar actors and the ever-changing plot synopsis, no matter how much the audience likes it, they are also a little tired.

A newspaper did a survey, and at least one-third of the viewers who watched "Mr. Zombie 3" last year did not go to the cinema to watch "Mr. Zombie 4" again.

And many viewers who like to watch movies repeatedly, basically only watched "Mr. Zombie 4" once, and didn't watch it again.

The audience who watched "Mr. Zombie 3" repeatedly last year was as high as 32%.

Decrease in total viewership and number of repeat viewers...... After such calculations, it is really rare that "Mr. Zombie 4" can have today's box office!

……

Lin Zhengying and Hong Jinbao are suffering the bitter fruit of "failure" here, and the corresponding thing is naturally the continued popularity of "Overlord Flower 2".

The second "Overlord Flower", which was filmed after two years, brought the audience not any fatigue, but incomparable expectations and surprises.

First of all, it added the famous Japanese singer Seiko Matsuda, which is very famous in Asia, so that the audience wanted to see how this beautiful and petite Japanese beauty performed.

In particular, Japanese movie fans were overjoyed, claiming that this was the first step for Japanese film actors to go to the world, and they would definitely give them the greatest support.

In addition, more importantly, Lin Qingxia in "Overlord Flower 2" has a different identity.

Today, Lin Qingxia is already the Oscar-winning actress and the absolute first person in Asian films.

Originally, Lin Qingxia was a super popular star in Asia, and she had the aura of an Oscar-winning actress, God knows how many fans want to see her new film.

Don't laugh at them for being too excited, can you feel the same when you watch the Oscar-winning movie?

Lin Qingxia's identity change alone can bring more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars in box office revenue to "Overlord Flower 2".

No, because of Lin Qingxia, Disney and United Arts Pictures failed to buy out the copyright, but instead became operated in Europe and the United States, and shared with them.

If there is no Oscar-winning actress, a movie starring all women, even if it is an action movie, you are simply joking when you mention this condition!

Another point is that "Overlord Flower 2" has been confirmed, which is the last "Overlord Flower" series starring Zhao Yazhi.

Zhao Yazhi's popularity in Asia in recent years has actually surpassed Lin Qingxia, because Lin Qingxia has only developed in the United States and has not appeared on the movie and TV screens of Asians on a large scale.

Zhao Yazhi is different, everyone has to act in movies and TV, and there are so many advertising endorsements, full of super-first-class stars.

Such a beautiful female star actually stopped starring in the "Overlord Flower" series after only acting in two films, of course, it is a pity.

So fans who want to watch "Overlord Flower 2", how melancholy and reluctant they are, then they have to watch it even more!

Under the influence of many factors, on the Friday day of the first weekend of "Overlord Flower 2", the box office in Asia directly exceeded 80 million, which is directly twice the sum of the weekly results of "Mr. Zombie 4"!

After three days over the weekend, "Overlord Flower 2" broke through the box office of "Happy Ghost 3" of 300 million Hong Kong dollars in one go, reaching 350 million Hong Kong dollars.

The box office in Europe and the United States also has 69 million US dollars, and the total box office has reached 900 million Hong Kong dollars in a week!!

It's so charming, so powerful, it's breathtaking!

In the past two years, holding the "Overlord Flower" series and the "Happy Ghost" series of Kirin movies, in terms of the ability to attract gold, where are there any opponents in Asia?
