"New Shushan Swordsman" quietly entered the United States, and then quietly became popular again. The reason why it became popular quietly is because no one can say exactly when this movie suddenly became a hit.

In the first week of its release in North America, "The Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" sold a total of $510,000, and the $510,000 was distributed to more than 300 screens, that is, the average screen was only 1,700 yuan a week, and the daily box office was less than $250.

Under normal circumstances, when the theater schedules such a street-hitting film, it will definitely be released in a more garbage time period, or let it go straight to the picture.

However, "The Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" did not receive this kind of treatment, and the movie theaters began to wait and see one by one, because due to factors such as insufficient publicity and garbage in the release time, the starting point of this movie was very low from the beginning. However, the data of various theaters is rising day by day, until the end of the second week, and the single-week box office of "New Shushan Swordsman" has increased to $860,000.

Even if the box office has increased in a single week, it is only $860,000, ranking in the lower middle of all the movie box office in the United States, but it is still at the bottom.

However, experienced cinema managers saw the business opportunities contained in it, and from the third week, some theaters began to increase the canvas of "New Shu Mountain Swordsman", but the screening time was still not adjusted, because films of this box office grade are not eligible to be screened in prime time.

As the canvas of "The Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" increased to 500 pieces, the box office in the third week soared to $1.24 million.

The canvas did not increase during the fourth week of screening, but the box office exceeded $2 million in a single week.

The box office broke two million in a single week, which is already a medium result in Hollywood movies. While other theater companies were still waiting, Carmichael Cinemas took the lead in adjusting the release time of "New Shu Mountain Swordsman" to 7 pm to 11 pm.

In the fifth week of its release, the box office of "The Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" soared to more than $3 million in a single week, which shocked many people. Carefully study the box office curve chart of "New Shu Mountain Swordsman", this is a live box office dark horse curve!

Unconsciously, someone in the United States suddenly began to talk about "The Swordsman from Shushan", and most of the focus of the conversation was the "Oriental magic" in it, as well as the bizarre Oriental fantasy in it.

"The Swordsman of New Shu Mountain" was released in the United States for three months before it was completed, and the box office in the United States reached an incredible $30 million.

Yes, for Wang Zijun, it is disappointing that "ET" only sold 40 million in the United States, while Tsui Hark's "Swordsman of New Shu Mountain" sold 30 million is unbelievable.

American newspapers called Tsui Hark "another excellent Chinese director after King Zachary", and Tsui Hark's box office success in the United States also shocked the Chinese film industry. Some large companies have begun to plan to sell movies to the United States, take Taiwan's film companies as an example, 30 million US dollars converted into Taiwan dollars is 1.2 billion, I heard that the Taiwan dollar will appreciate soon, but after the appreciation, it will be worth at least 1 billion, right?

Today's Taiwanese movies, even the box office of the local and foreign cities can reach 1 billion, and it is Wang Zijun's work, and others don't even think about it.

It is said that money is the best motivation, and the success of "New Shushan Swordsman" in the United States has stimulated many ambitious filmmakers to the point that their eyes are blood-red, and they are all thinking of going to the American market, instead of being content with small fights like before.

And Tsui Hark himself has doubled his worth because of this, and the salary of the director who filmed has directly tripled.

Nowadays, Taiwan's economy is developing rapidly, and many businessmen are making a lot of money, after "New Shushan Swordsman" was sold in the United States, there were actually Taiwanese big money who came directly to take a check on Tsui Hark's table - 5 million Hong Kong dollars!

Don't think it's the director's salary, it's just hard-earned money, if the movie is a big hit, it will be distributed directly from the box office.

Hong Kong's clubs are not idle, many bigwigs are dazzled by Qian Huang and want to "invite" Director Xu Da to film, but because of Xin Yi'an's care, they all ended up.

The gangs on the Taiwan side are quite quiet, because the dishonest ones are all locked up in Green Island, and the rest are busy fighting to redivide the forces, so they are not interested in finding trouble with a Hong Kong director.

………………

Mainland, Shanghai.

Le Yun, who had just finished filming the TV series "A Generation", was very happy, and she appeared in a total of 18 episodes, and finally got a salary of 480 yuan. 480 yuan is not a small amount, it is the salary of an ordinary worker for several months.

When Le Yun came back from Beijing, she went to the department store to pick out two clothes for her mother and younger brother, and waited to come home to surprise them.

But when Le Yun stepped into the house, the two new clothes in the bag couldn't be handled.

"Sister, this is the leather jacket my mother bought for me, it looks good, right?" The younger brother Le Tao stretched his legs again as he spoke, showing a pair of leather shoes, "This is cowhide, and a pair of shoes costs more than 500 yuan." ”

Well, now Le Yun doesn't dare to take out the gifts, the money she earned from filming the TV series for two months is not enough to buy leather shoes on her brother's feet.

"Sister, why don't you speak?" Letao asked.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just a little tiring by the train." Le Yun smiled and carried her luggage back to her room.

Before Le Yun went back to the room to put down her luggage, she heard her brother say, "By the way, sister, my mother bought you a lot of things." ”

Le Yun was about to ask what it was, when she saw her brother come in with a bag full of cosmetics, which made Le Yun, who loved beauty, look hot and at the same time deeply doubt the origin of these things.

"Xiaotao, where is Mom?" Le Yun asked.

Le Tao said: "Mom and Uncle Luo went to play cards." ”

"That Luo Lie again?" Le Yun was a little unhappy.

That Luo Lie was generous, considerate and considerate of her, and he was also a Hong Kong native, and Le Yun also had a good impression of him. But after all, Le Yun is only 18 years old and has a longing for love, and she can't look down on an uncle in his forties.

However, the mother surnamed Luo and Le Yun were very speculative, and many times her mother hinted that Le Yun would marry Luo Lie, and the whole family could move to Hong Kong to enjoy happiness in the future, which made Le Yun, who has always been obedient, embarrassed.

Le Yun asked her brother to put the cosmetics back, and to see that it was not early, she was ready to cook. Her family now lives in a tube building, and there is no separate kitchen and toilet, so she needs to go to the aisle to cook, so if she has time, it is best to rush to get the meal ready early, so as not to wait for the workers to grab the stove with the neighbors after work.

After scooping up the rice dishes, Le Yun was about to cook with an apron, when suddenly the door opened, and she saw her mother, who was almost fifty years old, dressed in gold and silver, walking in with high heels, not only her hair was permed into a lion's head, but even her mouth was wiped like a vampire.

"Mom, ...... you are" Le Yun saw her mother's appearance, standing there crying and laughing.

"How's it going, my hair looks good, right?" Luo Fengying said, "This is your brother Luo's special high-end hairdresser in Hong Kong, which cost me a full hundred yuan." ”

"A hundred?" Le Yun sticks out her tongue.

"Ah Yun is back?" Luo Lie stood up from behind Luo Fengying, but he could only turn around and go out after Le Yun said this, shouting to the people outside, "This way, move over here......"

Le Yun was about to ask what it was, but there were already workers outside carrying a refrigerator in, followed by a few onlookers, and there were no words of praise for Luo Fengying's ability.

Le Yun was afraid of being laughed at by the neighbors, so she hurriedly closed the door after the porter left and asked, "Mom, where did you get the money to buy a refrigerator?" Is it the money given by Brother Luo again? ”

"Not this time." Luo Fengying said with a smile, "Mom went to Hong Kong this time to meet a nobleman!" ”

"What nobleman?" Le Yun asked.

Luo Fengying said: "Mom is going to Hong Kong for a blind date this time, that man is young and handsome, talented, and very rich, this time it is all a bride price from him." It won't be long before our family can move to Hong Kong, and I will buy this refrigerator for temporary use, and give it to your uncle when I leave. ”

"What blind date? Mom, I don't know anything. Le Yun panicked.

Luo Fengying said with a smile: "Mom has shown you everything, the other party's character and talent are all good, I guarantee that you like it very much, if you don't believe it, ask your brother Luo." ”

Luo Lie echoed: "Yes, Mr. Wang is definitely a dragon among people. If you start from scratch at a young age and do a big business, you will definitely be satisfied. ”

Le Yun is not very smart, and sometimes she is even a little confused, and she didn't think about why Luo Lie, who had been pursuing her, would say good things about another man so passionately. When she heard that her mother had found a partner for her, and she had even received other people's bride price, she was already frightened, and hurriedly said, "Mom, I haven't seen anyone before, how can you be like this?" ”

Luo Fengying smiled: "People guarantee that you have seen it." ”

"How could I have seen it, have I ever been to Hong Kong?" Le Yun said urgently.

Luo Fengying said: "I haven't seen real people, you've always seen Chu Liuxiang on TV, right?" ”

Speaking of Chu Liuxiang at this time, the first reaction of the people on the mainland was Wang Zijun in ancient costumes, and Le Yun naturally did not know.

"You mean Wang Zijun?" Le Yun was surprised.

"How? Isn't it very handsome, I don't know how many little girls in Shanghai are crying after watching TV and want to marry Chu Liuxiang. Luo Fengying said.

"That's not right," Le Yun is an actor in the film and television industry after all, and he knows Wang Zijun in much more detail than ordinary people, "Wang Zijun seems to have a wife, and there are several, and even the children are not young." ”

Luo Fengying persuaded: "People are big shots, what does it matter if they have a wife?" ”

Le Yun looked at her mother in surprise, as if she didn't know her: "You let me be a little wife?" ”

Luo Fengying's face changed, and she suddenly cried: "Mom can't bear it." But my mother lost more than 500,000 yuan in Hong Kong, and if it wasn't for Mr. Wang to help me, I would have been hacked to death. Daughter, mom begs you, otherwise what will we give back to the family 500,000 yuan! ”

"Half a million?" Le Yun listened to it and sat directly on the ground with her legs weak.
