With the end of the new year, the box office of the two movies on the first day has also come out one after another.

The box office of "Happy Family" reached 3.02 million Hong Kong dollars on the first day.

The box office of "The Queen's Secret Order" on the first day was 3.08 million Hong Kong dollars.

The box office of the two films on the first day was almost the same, and although "The Queen's Secret Order" was temporarily ahead, the attendance rate of "Happy Family" in the next few days was higher than the former.

February 1 is the Chinese New Year's Eve of the lunar calendar, wireless and ATV TV stations do not have such programs as the Spring Festival Gala, many families in Xiangjiang after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, they all choose to drag their families to the surrounding theaters to watch a movie, which makes the box office of the two movies grow like a blowout, and have exceeded the 10 million mark.

"Happy Family" had a box office of 12 million Hong Kong dollars a week, with an attendance rate of 80%.

"The Queen's Secret" received 11 million at the box office in a week, followed closely behind, with an attendance rate of 76%.

Some small film companies have the experience of being affected by the pond fish last year, and they have avoided the time of the Chinese New Year to release their small-budget films.

On February 2, another year of Spring Festival, Wang Zheng accompanied the third uncle Wang Sanshui and his family in Yuen Long to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and on the first day of the new year, he and Zhou Xingchi, Liang Chaowei, and Da Fei gathered at Xu Ji Tea Restaurant in Kowloon to greet Uncle Jian, along with Chen Huimin, Zhou Yanfa, and Zeng Zhiwei.

After Uncle Jian gave everyone a laisee, he went to the counter to play with his abacus, and he didn't know what other accounts were to be calculated for the New Year.

Compared with the last time they met, the look on Zhou Yanfa's face was obviously much darker, it seemed that the first marriage in his life hit him hard, and even the joy of the New Year could not wash away the gloom in his heart.

"Brother Fa, what are the schedules after the year?"

Everyone drank tea around the round table in the tea restaurant, and Wang Zheng asked casually.

"I haven't received any notice from the company yet. ”

Zhou Yunfa felt a little bitter in his heart, the movies he starred in hit the street one by one at the box office, and the current film companies have avoided him.

Wang Zheng smiled slightly: "Then leave the schedule to me, and I will prepare the next movie after the holiday, and then I will need Fa Ge to be the main beam." ”

"I don't dare to be the big beam, but I will do my best to act!"

Zhou Yan couldn't help but be happy when he spoke, he had been looking forward to cooperating with Wang Zheng for a long time, and now he finally waited.

Zhou Xingchi and Liang Chaowei next to him are a little envious, Wang Zheng will release a new work after a year, it will be extraordinary, there is no script, no story framework, and even no cast, Zhou Yunfa agreed without even thinking about it, this is the charm of the youngest best director.

Seeing that Chen Huimin had not spoken, Wang Zheng asked him, "I don't know what arrangements Brother Min has after the Festival?"

Chen Huimin smiled lightly: "Now the people who invite me to make films are all small companies, and I can't compare with your Shaw Brothers, and I haven't received a film contract yet, so naturally there is no arrangement." ”

Wang Zheng smiled: "That's good, it just so happens that I have a script here that is very suitable for Brother Min, I will write it as soon as possible, and then I will hand it over to Viagra for guidance." He turned his head and asked Zeng Zhiwei: "Viagra, what do you think?"

Zeng Zhiwei laughed: "Of course you can! As long as it's a script written by Ah Zheng, I'll accept as much as I want!"

Zeng Zhiwei's words made everyone laugh, and the script written by Wang Zheng was indeed eye-catching.

Zhou Xingchi couldn't help but ask: "Ah Zheng, Brother Fa, Viagra, and Brother Min all have roles, what about me?" Liang Chaowei also echoed: "And me!"

Wang Zheng said to the two: "Ah Xing, you will follow Brother Min and hone your acting skills." As for Ah Wei, you don't need to worry, Wireless and Mr. Cha have already negotiated the adaptation rights, "The Legend of Deer and Ding" and "Smiling Proud Jianghu" will start filming this year, you focus on the drama first, and when the acting skills are mature, you will have your own big drama waiting for you to act. ”

The two nodded happily when they heard this, leaving Da Fei silent, Wang Zheng asked, "Brother Fei, what about you?"

"I—I don't care!"

Da Fei replied lightly, his temperament became more and more lazy, Wang Zheng was not ready to let him wish: "Then Brother Fei, you will be my assistant!" Without waiting for Da Fei to refuse, he continued: "It's such a happy decision!"

In the next few days, Wang Zheng wrote the script "Wind and Rain on the Same Road", which is an action shootout film with a simple plot and distinct characters, an undercover policeman and a person who helps robbers sell stolen goods in the process of struggle, going through hardships, sharing weal and woe, and sharing ups and downs.

Wang Zheng only wrote the general framework of the story, after all, it was impossible for him to remember the entire complete plot, and the rest could only be perfected by Zeng Zhiwei himself.

In addition to the original roles of Zhou Xingchi and Chen Huimin, the actors in the play remain unchanged, and the club boss Cheng Kui is still playing tricks, and it is naturally not difficult to find him to play, but the heroine Zhou Huimin is not yet 17 years old this year, so it may not be realistic for her to continue to play.

In the end, Zeng Zhiwei suggested that Lan Jieying should play the role, Wang Zheng also cooperated with her several times, and as a senior brother, he wanted to bring more junior brothers and sisters in the wireless artist training class.

When Cheng Kui received the movie audition sent by Shaw Brothers, he couldn't believe that he was sentenced to 4 years in prison for fighting in the club, and was brought into the film industry by Li Xiuxian in 78 years.

"Director Wang, Director Zeng, smoking!"

During the audition, Cheng Kui smiled and only had a slit left in his eyes, and he respectfully scattered cigarettes to the two directors.

Wang Zheng took the cigarette, put it on the end of his nose and sniffed it vigorously, sniffing the familiar smell of tobacco, and said to the very humble Cheng Kui: "Cigarettes are not a good thing, you can quit if you don't smoke!"

Saying that he returned the cigarette in his hand to Cheng Kuiammon, he remembered that the man in front of him with the nickname "Dasha" died of nasopharyngeal cancer in his 50s, which was a big regret of Xiangjiang Movie.

"Yes, yes, I will!"

Seeing that Cheng Kui nodded again and again, he knew that he didn't take his words seriously, Wang Zheng had no choice but to wait until he was familiar with it in the future and then slowly advise.

Cheng Kuiammon's audition went very smoothly, he has many years of club experience, he doesn't need to deliberately imitate when he plays a big guy, he just needs to stare at him and stand there without moving, the momentum on his body is terrifying, and the ugly thing is that he doesn't look like a good person.

After helping Zeng Zhiwei build the crew of "Wind and Rain", Wang Zheng only hung a position as a screenwriter and producer in the crew and stopped interfering, and let Zeng Zhiwei control the whole movie.

After more than 20 days of hot screenings, the box office of "The Best Happy Event" has already exceeded 20 million and is infinitely close to 30 million, and the opening of "The Queen's Secret Order" is as much as 5 million, which makes Shao Tycoon very excited, Shaw Brothers Films have not yet exceeded 30 million at the box office, for this reason, Shao Tycoon chartered the entire lobby of the Peninsula Hotel and began the ice-breaking ceremony under the screen of TVB's live broadcast.

Eight Arabic numerals made of ice cubes are shattered under the hammer of the six leading actors and directors and the tycoon.

The next day, the box office of "Happy Family" exceeded 30 million as expected.

For such a result, Wang Zheng had long expected it, but he didn't know that the final box office of "Happy Family" in the future was close to 50 million, although there were inflation factors, but 30 million was expected.
