5 February 1983. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The four-nation war of DreamWorks, Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Art City has finally kicked off.
The first to step into the battlefield was Golden Harvest's "Plan A".
At the end of January, "Plan A" was released early on the express train of the Chinese New Year stalls.
Due to the lack of fierce ~ films and "Plan A", which gathers Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao, and Yuan Biao, the three most capable kung fu superstars of Golden Harvest, and gathers the family class and the Hong family class, two good movies with a few film teams in Xiangjiang, to grab the box office. Therefore, as soon as "Plan A" was released, it swept the box office - only one week and two days after its release, "Plan A" earned more than 12 million Hong Kong dollars.
Moreover, "Plan A" not only did super good results, but also had a good reputation - this time, the critics and the audience were very unanimous in their reviews of "Plan A", and all the critics and audiences thought that "Plan A" was a rare good kung fu movie in recent years.
The achievement of "Plan A" made Zou Wenhuai old and happy - in Zou Wenhuai's mind, the Chinese New Year file of 83 years must be the world of Golden Harvest, and it must be the world of "Plan A"!
However,
It backfired - as soon as February 5th arrived, DreamWorks' "True Colors of Heroes" and Xinyicheng's "Best Partner" stepped onto the battlefield at the same time, and then the War of the Three Kingdoms began.
Before the release, whether it was Xu Cun and other DreamWorks personnel, or Lei Juekun and other New Arts City personnel, they did not have full confidence - not to mention that "Plan A", a rare good movie in the history of Hong Kong films, was being screened. Just said that "The True Color of Heroes" was co-screened on the new theater line of Free Cinemas, which made Xu Cun have no full bottom in his heart. And although the best partner series is also a rare good movie, all the personnel in Xinyicheng are full of infinite jealousy towards Xu Cun, a man who has repeatedly created miracles.
But-
When "The True Colors of Heroes" and "Best Partners Show Their Magical Powers" were released, Xu Cun and other DreamWorks personnel and Lei Juekun and other New Arts City personnel all breathed a sigh of relief -- the average attendance rates of "The True Colors of Heroes" and "Best Partners Show Their Magical Powers" on the first day were 92 percent and 94 percent respectively, while the average attendance rate of "Plan A" dropped from 93 percent the previous day to 187 percent.
The average attendance rate on the first day of "The True Color of Heroes" can reach 92%, mainly relying on the strong box office appeal of Xu Cun, Zhou Runfa, and Zhang Guorong, and the average attendance rate on the first day of "Best Partner" can reach 94%, mainly relying on the good reputation accumulated by the first "Best Partner", and the average attendance rate of "Plan A" falling to 87% is completely due to the impact of "The True Color of Heroes" and "Best Partner".
For the sharp drop in the average attendance rate of "Plan A", Zou Wenhuai and others are mentally prepared - "The True Color of Heroes" and "The Best Partner Show Their Magical Powers" are both fierce ~ films starring famous directors and stars, and their simultaneous release will naturally grab the box office of "Plan A" at the beginning.
But that's okay - Zou Wenhuai and others have confidence in "Plan A"! They all believe that as long as "The True Color of Heroes" and "Best Partner Show Their Powers" are unsatisfactory, with the excellence of "Plan A", the average attendance rate of "Plan A" will definitely rise!
What makes Zou Wenhuai and others feel cold is that as soon as "The True Colors of Heroes" and "The Best Partner Shows Their Magical Powers" were released, film critics and audiences gave these two movies, especially "The True Colors of Heroes", extremely high praise!
Oriental Daily:
"I thought I was engaging in high-tech, but in fact, it wasn't much fun, and the performances of several leading actors were a bit inaccurate."
"I've been waiting for three years, just to wait for an opportunity, I want to fight for a breath, not to prove how great I am, I want to tell others that I must get back what I lost! For the first time, this sentence made the author appreciate the chivalrous courage and courage that rushed to the sky, and made people's blood boil. The heroes who raised their arms, the heroes who promised their daughters, and the warriors who sacrificed their lives for righteousness made me, who was not familiar with the world, look bloody and excited! Wearing a trench coat, holding a double robbery, holding a toothpick in his mouth, and a charming evil smile, he kills one person in ten steps, and does not stay for a thousand miles! The author can't use words to describe the movie "The True Colors of Heroes". The author can only say that Xu Cun is really worthy of being the world's number one director! ”
Sing Tao Daily:
"Due to the unprecedented success of the first part, "Best Partner", a Hong Kong spy film imitating 007, has also been officially set as the tone of the series, and in terms of film technology investment, it can be seen that Mecca has taken great pains, the modification of the car, Xu Guanjie's rocket chair, and the robot war, it is simply a combination of 007 and the cartoon Transformers, and the visual effects are very good."
"I don't know if Zhou Runfa made Brother Xiaoma, or Brother Xiaoma made Brother Zhou Runfa, this is a question that can never be answered. Zhou Yunfa uses his superb acting skills and unparalleled charm to create an almost mythical and eternal image for us. As Brother Pony said in the film: "I am God, and the one who can control my own destiny is God!" "So since then, the image of Little Brother Ma has become a god-like totem in my heart."
Ming Pao:
"There's a sense of joy, there's humor, and it's very connotative. Robot Wars is a highlight, a large number of handmade models, the use of fireworks, although not as shocking and realistic as the special effects done in the digital field, but it also looks very flavorful, and at the same time very sincere. ”
"The opposition between evil and good makes the world passionate, and this opposition is mainly between two men, so the world becomes very simple, two men with guns do not need any reason to meet head-on, what they fight for is also secondary, it is only a complicated process of taking out the other. During this period, the interweaving of affection and hatred is the real theme. "The True Color of Heroes" praises and celebrates loyalty and affection, even if it is the loyalty and affection in the evil camp, or the loyalty and affection shown by a villain in a moment. The philosophy of "The True Color of Heroes" is so simple and straightforward - if a man has a choice, he should choose affection, and if there is a second choice, he should choose a gun. Xu Cun, the world's No. 1 director, explained to us what is called the aesthetics of violence! ”

Unlike film critics, who will use flowery words to express their feelings, ordinary viewers who have watched "Plan A", "The True Colors of Heroes", and "Best Partner" at the same time will generally only express their feelings in the simplest words. For example: "Plan A" is good, and "Best Partner Shows Miracles" is also good, but the best is "The True Color of Heroes"!
