298 [Shake Hong Kong]

TVB's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has not yet been broadcast, and several newspapers have begun to report all kinds of gossip.

In particular, "Ming Pao Weekly", with a kind of "I'll reveal a secret to you", published the stills of Huang Rong in the new version of "Shooting the Condor".

He Chaoqiong's version of Huang Rong, compared with Kang Jianfei's memory of Weng Meiling's version of Huang Rong, the two are not much different in appearance, but He Chaoqiong is a little more beautiful than Weng Meiling.

Of course, the reason why Weng Meiling's version of Huang Rong is classic is not her appearance, but her movements, expressions, and manners are full of liveliness and agility, which is very consistent with the image of Huang Rong in Jin Yong's original work.

Although I don't know how He Chaoqiong plays Huang Rong, the report of "Ming Pao Weekly" has made many readers interested.

As Kang Jianfei guessed, TVB shamelessly used the gimmick of "The Daughter of the Gambling King" to promote this time.

Although today's He gambling king can't cover the sky in Macau, he also controls most of Macau's gambling business, and he is also famous in Hong Kong.

As soon as the news of the gambling king's daughter starring in TVB's new drama came out, it instantly caused various media to report on it.

The daughter of the gambling king starred in Huang Rong, and the energy generated was completely beyond Kang Jianfei's imagination - actors in this year are still dramas, and most of the rich people look down on stars in the entertainment industry, let alone allow their daughters to be actors.

Kang Jianfei looked at the overwhelming news about He Chaoqiong and the gambling king, and suddenly felt a little dumbfounded, and at the same time felt very bad.

Soon ushered in the premiere of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the ratings of the first episode reached 37 points, and the ratings of the second episode almost broke 40.

TVB also made a lot of money this time, and when filming the scenes of the Mongolian grassland, it even moved the crew to the Fanling Golf Course, and rented dozens or hundreds of horses to shoot "grandiose" war scenes.

Kang Jianfei also turned on the TV to see that Huang Rong played by He Chaoqiong has a little less aura than Weng Meiling's version, but it is a little more gentle and noble, and it is difficult to judge which is stronger or weaker.

The ratings of "Sister Tuogun" declined rapidly, and it finally stopped until about 50 o'clock, barely beating "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

In the next half a month, the ratings of the two TV series were very close, and "Sister Tuogun" would be surpassed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" if you didn't pay attention to it.

TVB's "Shooting the Condor" is not mentioned for the time being, and Mecca's "Best Partner 2" has also been released for many days at the Golden Princess.

Due to the impact of urban "blockbusters" such as "Royal Sister" and "True Colors of Heroes", the appeal of "Best Partner 2" to Hong Kong audiences has been greatly reduced.

Among the first few parts of the "Best Partner" series, the second part is the worst, and the scenes and plot are substandard.

But after all, the influence of the first part is there, although the level of "Best Partner 2" has declined, the box office situation is slightly better than Cheng Long's "Plan A", and the Hong Kong box office should be no problem to break 20 million.

On the side of Golden Harvest Cinemas, Hong Jinbao's "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" has already been painted, and the box office is only a pitiful more than 4 million. This bad film that was driven out by Wang Jing followed the trend, due to the joining of Zhou Runfa, Chen Huimin and Zhang Guorong, and then with the east wind of "The True Color of Heroes", which has not yet been painted, the premiere box office quickly exceeded 5 million, and went straight to the box office mark of 10 million.

DreamWorks' "Little Fear" and "Happy Ghost 3 Happy Ghost Crashing Ghost" have been painted in Taiwan. The box office of "Little Fear" was only more than 11 million Taiwan dollars, but "Happy Ghost 3" was a box office hit, earning more than 27 million Taiwan dollars in the summer file.

The "Red Fen Corps", which was originally starred by Lin Qingxia and finally changed to starring Li Saifeng, has also been completed, and it will be released after the later stage is completed. Yang Dengkui's first play in the film industry, if nothing else, will be an unprecedented hit, and this guy will also transform from a gang boss to a film and television tycoon.

…………

…………

Entering September, the movie-watching craze in the summer has gradually cooled down, and "The True Color of Heroes" finally won 31.85 million box office in Hong Kong after nearly two months of hot screenings.

This is the first film in Hong Kong to break 30 million at the box office, although it has a box office of nearly 3 million less than the original time and space, but considering the difference in ticket prices, in fact, Kang Jianfei's version has more viewers.

When "The True Color of Heroes" was painted, Oriental DreamWorks held a grand celebration ceremony, and even held a press conference for the film.

No one thinks that Kang Jianfei is making a big fuss, and the box office of 30 million is simply an insurmountable gap for other film companies and directors, and it is an unattainable astronomical amount.

"Oriental Daily" commented: "Kang Jianfei's "Happy Ghost" broke the 10 million box office mark, his "Mr. Zombie" broke the 20 million box office mark, and now "The True Color of Heroes" has broken the 30 million box office mark. The previous box office records were all millions of growth, but Kang Jianfei pushed the box office of Hong Kong films to a new height at a speed of tens of millions. The box office record of "The True Color of Heroes" may not be broken in a short period of time, including Kang Jianfei himself, the author is very much looking forward to Kang Jianfei's movie that can break the 40 million box office mark......"

Major newspapers are paying attention to the news that the box office of "The True Color of Heroes" broke 30 million, and at this moment, "Industrial and Commercial Daily" suddenly published a news with the headline: "DreamWorks and Golden Princess's relationship broke down? 》

As soon as the report of "Industrial and Commercial Daily" came out, other media came back to their senses and remembered that at the celebration ceremony of "The True Color of Heroes", none of the people of Princess Jin were present.

It stands to reason that a record-setting movie like "The True Color of Heroes", as the showrunner of the Golden Princess Cinema Line, should be grandly celebrated. But the Golden Princess Cinema Line did not react to this, not only did Lei Juekun not appear at the celebration ceremony of "The True Color of Heroes", but even the theater manager did not show up.

……

Outside the gate of the Golden Princess Cinema, Li Maowen was blocked by reporters early in the morning.

The reporters rushed to ask: "Manager Li, did Princess Jin break with DreamWorks?" ”

Li Maowen smiled calmly: "It's not okay to break up, but there are indeed some contradictions." ”

When the reporters heard this, they became even more energetic and continued to ask: "The two companies used to cooperate very happily, what kind of contradictions have arisen?" ”

Li Maowen first complained: "Oriental DreamWorks' films have always been very popular, this is known to everyone. However, the temper of the people in the Oriental Company is also getting bigger and bigger, pointing fingers at the scheduling of the Golden Princess Cinema Line, and even often threatening us by severing the cooperative relationship. For example, Oriental Company's new film "Happy Campus", we have arranged the release plan according to the actual situation, but Ma Qiao, vice president of Oriental Company, is not satisfied, and arrogantly asks us to cancel the release schedule of other films in the same period and use all the canvas to release "Happy Campus". The Golden Princess Cinemas is not for DreamWorks as a company, and we have to take into account the interests of other film owners, for which I can only express my great regret. ”

The reporter asked again: "Will DreamWorks films be released on Golden Princess in the future?" ”

Li Maowen smiled gently: "You should ask Mr. Kang Jianfei this question." I also hope that Princess Kim will continue to work with DreamWorks, but I'm sorry if they continue to be so vexatious. ”

The reporter continued to ask: "If DreamWorks cancels its cooperation with Princess Jin, which theater will DreamWorks' movies be released?" ”

Li Maowen sneered: "How do I know? ”

At the same time, Ma Qiao was also interviewed by reporters.

The reporter asked: "Has DreamWorks terminated its cooperation with Princess Gold?" ”

Ma Qiao said very angrily: "Princess Jin is too deceitful! "Royal Sister 2" only gives 6 canvases, "Happy Campus" only gives 5 canvases, and Princess Jin's film schedule is clearly suppressing DreamWorks. In this way, even if it is a good film like "The True Color of Heroes", I am afraid that the box office can only sell a few million. ”

The reporter asked: "Why did Princess Jin suppress DreamWorks?" ”

Ma Qiao sneered: "Why? It's not because Mr. Kang doesn't agree with Lei Juekun's stake in DreamWorks, he wants to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle and use the method of breaking the canvas to force Mr. Kang to comply. ”

The reporter asked, "What does DreamWorks plan to do in the future?" Do you want to choose to cooperate with Golden Harvest Cinema Line? ”

Ma Qiao coughed and said, "Regarding this, DreamWorks has its own plans. But I want to say to the people of Princess Jin that we at DreamWorks make movies for movie dreams, and we will never bow to the evil forces in the film industry. Don't think that owning a movie theater chain can cover the sky with one hand, even if I, Ma Qiao, personally lead people to push the movie projection truck through the streets and alleys, I have to show DreamWorks movies! ”

The next day's newspaper published two completely different stories.

One side said that DreamWorks was a big bully, and the other side said that Princess Jin shamelessly suppressed it, and both sides said the truth, so that many readers couldn't tell which was right and which was wrong.

However, whether it is ordinary citizens or industry insiders, most people tend to choose to believe in DreamWorks.

For ordinary citizens, their favorite movies are made by DreamWorks, but they are not too impressed with Princess Jin, and they are emotionally inclined to believe in DreamWorks.

For people in the industry, it is a choice to rationally analyze the rhetoric on both sides. Film production companies and cinema chain companies, the latter is obviously more dominant in controlling the release channels, Kang Jianfei will take the initiative to fall out with Lei Juekun when his brain is pumped, but Lei Juekun is more likely to want to invest in DreamWorks.

It can be said that after the report came out, DreamWorks and Kang Jianfei won widespread sympathy.

Some newspapers even analyzed: "As a newly rising young rich man, Kang Jianfei has just been tense with Sir Shao, and he was immediately suppressed by Boss Lei, I am afraid that this time it will be difficult to escape, and at most he will take the initiative to give up his shares in DreamWorks in exchange for continued cooperation with Princess Jin." ”

This point of view represents the opinion of the majority, just when everyone thought that Kang Jianfei would bow to Lei Juekun, DreamWorks suddenly held a press conference and only announced one news: DreamWorks severed all cooperation with Princess Jin, and DreamWorks movies will never be released in Princess Jin theaters!

As soon as the news came out, it shook the Hong Kong film industry! RS
