……

In the limelight, a crazy number appeared, 83 million yuan in the first week, and the box office exceeded 40 million in the first 3 days, with an average daily income of more than 10 million yuan.

"Watching movies is like a frenzy, who is the opponent in the world, "Infernal Affairs" caused madness in the mainland, and theaters lined up to watch the movie, creating the hottest viewing season since the release of "Titanic" in 98! In the first week of its release, it has already taken 83 million yuan, heading towards Chen Tiandu's 170 million yuan mark! ”

Andy Lau and Chen Tian both teamed up to record a promotional theme song for "Infernal Affairs", and "Heart is Higher than the Sky" also spread.

"I'm sorry, I'm a police officer!"

This line has also become the most popular dialogue nowadays, "Infernal Affairs" is popular all over the country, and the eastern region alone has contributed nearly 16 million box office, and the word of mouth is called by the audience as the best Chinese movie in recent years, the peak of police and gangster films. In the capital, the box office was 12.8 million a week, and it also achieved a box office of nearly 10 million in the magic capital.

"Following the 120 million domestic main theme "Life and Death Choice", the second Chinese movie to break 100 million is coming!"

In the first half of the year, a "Life and Death Choice" 120 million people were not much shocked, because this movie sold tens of millions of government tickets alone, and the cheating was too much. If "Infernal Affairs" breaks 100 million yuan, it is obviously much more convincing than the low score of 5.2 points of "Life and Death Choice", and the score of several lonely unprofessional movies on the Internet in China directly exceeds 9 points, and word of mouth is not a joke. (Note: "Life and Death Choice" has not been released at this time, for the needs of the plot.) Bring it up first and whip the corpse. ）

The number of the mainland box office is one out. It almost shocked all filmmakers. Han Sanpin also smiled, and congratulated him when he met someone at work today, and he was also full of joy, although this matter has little to do with Zhongying, but the reputation still has to be received, and it can also help him do his best to turn from deputy to positive.

Lao Wan has a nice name, called Wan Wan, and has an iron job bowl for civil servants. When I go to work, I don't have much to do, and it's very leisurely. Several colleagues were discussing the plot of Infernal Affairs together, and he couldn't interject at all after talking, which made Wan Wan a little curious, ""Infernal Affairs" is really so good? Ouch, then I have to buy a disc to see, my family's newly bought VCD hasn't been used a few times during the Chinese New Year. ”

When he bought vegetables and passed by a carpet when he got off work, he sounded something, and said in a dragging voice, "Boss, come to "Infernal Affairs". ”

The vendor in front of the disc stand glanced at him. Mysteriously took out one and threw it to him, "10 yuan." ”

Wan Wan's eyes widened. "So expensive? Killing pigs is you, I'm an old acquaintance. "If you like to buy it or not, it's just this one, otherwise why is it called a blockbuster." "Damn, I'm still angry, I bought it!"

After going home, his wife came back, his wife's name is Qianqian, and it is a good name for a girl, and she just happens to be a pair with him.

"Wife, let's watch a movie together, Infernal Affairs." "Really? I've heard a lot of people say that this movie is good, so why don't you go to the cinema tonight? "Go to a movie theater, spend that unjust money, and you can get it at home." Then I opened the VCD very chicly, and as soon as it was released, there was a humming and chirping wail inside, and then they were dumbfounded, "This Nima Infernal Affairs, a clear island country love action movie." ”

"Dead man, it's not dark yet, what's wrong with you."

Qianqian poked Wan Wanyi's head and threw a wink, "I thought it was really "Infernal Affairs", I heard that the pirated card is very strict, and the DVD has not come out at all, you must have been deceived by the roadside vendor." ”

Wan Wan was depressed, but his son slipped in without being sensible, and happened to see the TV with a bare ass fight, and shouted excitedly, and his face turned black in an instant. I couldn't swallow this breath and went to the vendor, but the people left early. It's not a big deal, but it's just a waste of 10 yuan, and he hasn't come out for days. In the end, I couldn't hold it back, and when the weekend came, I took the whole family to the cinema to watch it.

For a full 160 minutes, not even the ending song was missed. Although it cost 100 oceans, half a ticket for children. After coming out, I felt that it was a pleasure, "Wife, let's come out and watch a movie once a month in the future." ”

"Well, husband, you're so good." ……

In this environment where piracy is rampant, the brilliant achievement of "Infernal Affairs" of 83 million can be said to be against the sky.

Only Chen Tian knows that this movie is still a little short of the record of a domestic martial arts film two years later.

In Hong Kong, it broke 32 million Hong Kong dollars in the first week, and it is expected that it will continue to reach a peak after the summer vacation really comes.

"Ming Pao" reported: "There is no doubt that the city is a rescue work, a movie can save a dusty classic movie theme, police and gangster films usher in spring, and it is conservatively estimated that there will be a large number of follow-up police and gangster films tomorrow." However, they will bump into "Infernal Affairs: Ultimate Infernal", and I hope that followers will consider it carefully......"

The headline of "Oriental Daily" is very attractive, "The record that has been sealed for 7 years, the permanent shame of Hong Kong films, can it be broken this year?" ”

In 1993, an American-made blockbuster went on a rampage around the world, eventually looting $914 million at the worldwide box office at an investment cost of $63 million. In the following years, this film has been the world box office champion, and it is "Jurassic Park" directed by Spielberg.

The film was finally painted in Hong Kong with a box office of about 62 million Hong Kong dollars, which not only became the first work in Hong Kong, the Oriental Hollywood, to gross more than 60 million at the box office, but also humiliatingly controlled the box office champion of Hong Kong films to this day, forcing Hong Kong filmmakers to introduce a self-deceptive regulation, which stipulates that the box office of foreign language films will be calculated separately and will not be included in Hong Kong's local annual box office rankings.

This disgrace ...... Chinese filmmakers will never forget the shame of jì!

Why do you say that it is a shame, there are always successes or failures at the box office, how can it be as expected, why bother so much?

It was only after reading this history that Chen Tiandu knew the true meaning of the word "shame". At that time, Hong Kong filmmakers were still plundered by the rampant plundering of the box office in Hong Kong by "Jurassic Park" under the premise of making a lot of preparations to resist the invasion of Hollywood blockbusters.

If nothing is done. Maybe it won't hurt that much. What did the people of Hong Kong do during the Golden Age?

In that golden summer file. Hong Kong filmmakers are well prepared to face the challenge:

In terms of cinemas. At that time, the senior management of the four major cinema chains of Golden Harvest, Xinbao, Yonggao, and Oriental reached a consensus and refused to provide the best quality theaters for "Jurassic Park", which had been plundering the box office in Japan and Treasure Island at that time, forcing it to be released only in private theaters with the worst theater environment in Hong Kong at the beginning of its release.

Subsequently, the Hong Kong box office guarantee - "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" starring Zhou Xingchi was the first to be released; He starred in another work "Jigong", Kung Fu Emperor Li Lianjie's "Fang Shiyu 2", Lin Qingxia and Leslie Cheung starred in "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch", Chen Long starred in "Serious Crime Team", and brought together three of the four kings "Super School Bully" (Wang Jing) and other six best-selling movies teamed up to snipe "Jurassic Park".

As a result, he was defeated and defeated.

In addition to "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", which perfectly avoided the release schedule of "Jurassic Park", the box office exceeded 40 million, and "Fang Shiyu 2" had the best results, with a box office exceeding 30 million and making a small profit. It's just that it's no longer powerless to threaten "Jurassic Park".

Chen Long's "Serious Crime Unit" has a box office of more than 25 million, and Golden Harvest has not recovered its cost by relying on the local box office in Hong Kong alone; The box office of "Jigong" barely exceeded 20 million, and Shaw Brothers lost nearly 10 million yuan in the local port because of the investment in this movie, and he had to rely on other cities to earn back the investment; The Oriental movie "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" barely saved its capital, with a box office of no less than 20 million, and did not pose any threat to "Jurassic Park"; The box office of "Super School Bully" also exceeded 20 million......

It was the first head-to-head battle between Hong Kong films and American blockbusters in the golden age, and Hong Kong films can only be described as being defeated.

Now "Infernal Affairs" has hit with the support of the whole Hong Kong people, and it has set a record of 32 million Hong Kong dollars in the first week, which reminds many people of that long-standing box office record.

Is this the time for Hong Kong films to regain their box office records?

But can this movie be considered a Hong Kong film? The investment comes from the mainland, and the director and screenwriter are also Chen Tiandu. In addition to the fact that a group of actor-level actors are Hong Kong people, and the story is from Hong Kong, what else can be left?

Although it is a little embarrassing, the media of good things will not let go of this opportunity to hype up. The newspaper has played the banner of "Chen Tiandu VS Spielberg" and "Disciple VS Teacher" early, at least to regain the box office record in Hong Kong.

Chen Tian understands the feelings of the proud Hong Kong people very much, and he is also very moved, but he can't do anything.

People can't just live in longing, the decline of Hong Kong movies is a fact, and now they can only find other ways out, and striving to rise is the right way.

Compared with the madness in Hong Kong, the results of "Infernal Affairs" in Treasure Island have also been passed back. Regarding this movie, the treasure island side wanted to introduce it by way of a high buyout, and when Lin Jianyue released it, he built a plan to take a chance. Moreover, it broke the limitations and jointly released it with a number of treasure island theaters to compete for the summer box office.

Seeing that "Infernal Affairs" is selling well in Taiwan, Lin Jianyue's bold self-asking pocket of NT$6 million has increased the screening and publicity for Taiwan, and with his efforts, within a week of screening, the box office of "Infernal Affairs" in Taiwan has approached 68 million Taiwan dollars (about 15 million Hong Kong dollars).

In fact, the Baodao market has been attacked by American blockbusters more than ten years ago, and traditional Hong Kong-style movies have not been unpopular in Baodao ten years ago.

The traditional, pee, and fart mode of Hong Kong films has been well known to the audience on Treasure Island, and after the fire of a movie in the Chinese New Year file every year, there will inevitably be several or even more than a dozen follow-up films of the same type landing in Hong Kong in the same year, so that no matter how good the creative model is, there will be a day when it will be tired of watching.

Coupled with Hollywood's horse racing, domineering and domineering, the charm of blockbusters is becoming more and more irresistible.

Based on this premise, the results of NT$68 million in the first week can only be described as good, and the box office is not a problem.

The entire Chinese-speaking region is shrouded in "Infernal Affairs".

The number of moviegoers has not decreased, and the scale of the screening is getting bigger and bigger day by day.

With such a good momentum, it is natural to continue to build momentum and split the crew. Andy Lau led a team of Southeast Asian and South Korean propaganda, and Chen Tiandu will go directly to the European battlefield after leaving Japan. The film gained a lot of fame when it was released in France, and it was time to start showing it on the continent.

At this time, a phone call came in. (To be continued......)
