When Kang Jianfei went to Italy with the crew, the British government in Hong Kong finally implemented coercive measures in the face of the crazy depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar: let the Hong Kong dollar and the US dollar implement a linked exchange rate, and the US dollar is constant at 7.8 Hong Kong dollars per US dollar.

Just 20 days ago, the exchange rate when Kang Jianfei bought the Hong Kong dollar was between 9.3 and 9.6, and now the linked exchange rate of the US dollar to the Hong Kong dollar is set at 7.8, which directly made Kang Jianfei earn more than 158 million Hong Kong dollars.

When Kang Jianfei heard the news in Italy, his heart was simply happy, and he started the filming of "Deadly Express" with a happy mood.

At the same time, "God of Gamblers" was also released in Taiwan and Japan, continuing the trend of the film sweeping the Asian box office.

DreamWorks' partner in Taiwan is mainly Longxiang Pictures, which is the distribution channel inherited from the previous Golden Princess. After Princess Jin got in touch with Nanyang Cathay Cinemas, Cathay Pacific took a ride with Taiwan's Longxiang, and initially established a joint distribution network of Hong Kong (Golden Princess Cinemas), Taiwan (Chinese Cinemas), and Nanyang (Cathay Cinemas).

After falling out with the Golden Princess, DreamWorks completely bypassed the Golden Princess and cooperated directly with Longxiang Pictures and Cathay Pacific Pictures. In other words, New Arts City and DreamWorks are actually using the same two distribution channels in Taiwan and Nanyang, and there is fierce competition between them.

There are countless film companies and theater chains in Taiwan, but most of them are concentrated in Taipei, and the competition between them is also very fierce.

Not long ago, one of the eight major film companies in Taiwan in the future, the newly rising Taiwanese scholar film distribution company came to the door, hoping to establish a cooperative relationship with Princess Jin.

Scholars Inc. is a new company that was established only a few years ago. The first pot of gold was the purchase of Xu Anhua's "Hit the Positive", which sold well at the box office in Taiwan and became prominent.

In the past two years, other shareholders have withdrawn one after another. The scholar company is completely controlled by Cai Songlin, the major shareholder, and its pace of development is extremely rapid. Previously, the scholar was not able to cooperate with DreamWorks, because he was not qualified at all, after all, the new company had limited rights to schedule films in Taiwan.

However, now that the scholar company has obtained the filming rights of Taiwan's "Golden Horse" and "Big World" theaters, it naturally hopes to release DreamWorks films, because DreamWorks' films have sold the best in Taiwan in recent years.

So, Kang Jianfei made a decision and asked the distribution department of DreamWorks to do an extremely shameless thing: sell one product and two owners.

Scholar's distribution network. It can greatly make up for the shortcomings of Longxiang Pictures, and if the two distribution companies discuss the plan and release it at the same time, it will greatly tap the box office potential of the released film.

Like the previous "The Wrong Car", why was it released in Taiwan for several months? is because the distribution network is not perfect, and in the next three months, other theaters watched the film sell well, and then successively purchased second, third, or even fourth rounds of screening rights and then scheduled the film.

DreamWorks' behavior of selling one goods and two owners made both the scholar and Long Xiang extremely unhappy. But they had to sit down and work together. Because in the eyes of Hong Kong film companies, a company like DreamWorks that can continuously produce high-grossing movies is already a grandfather-level storage zài, and it can't afford to offend at all.

Therefore, the release of "God of Gamblers" in Taiwan this time, the number of theaters screened in the first round reached its peak, and it premiered in Taiwan on the day of "Double 10th National Day".

Because of the full publicity and distribution work. The box office of "God of Gamblers" in Taiwan was as high as NT$4.37 million on the first day, which attracted an amazement in the Taiwanese film industry and set off a whirlwind of God of Gamblers in Taiwan.

The box office on the first day was 4.37 million Taiwan dollars, wouldn't the box office be tens of millions after a month or two of screening? You must know that few movies released in Taiwan in the past few years have broken 10 million box office.

Such a terrifying first-day box office can only say three things: one. The release of God of Gamblers has been done superbly; Second, the movie "God of Gamblers" is very popular with the audience; Three. With the rapid development of Taiwan's economy, Taiwan's film market has prospered rapidly.

Just like the mainland film market in the future, in the first few years after 2000, a movie that could break 100 million yuan at the box office was a blockbuster or a god film, and Hollywood film companies did not pay much attention to the million-dollar box office market in the mainland. But after 2010, the mainland's box office market has grown explosively like a volcanic eruption, and when a certain film got a box office of 3.5 billion yuan last year, the media was still amazed, but I didn't expect that there would be several films with a box office of more than 1 billion yuan in the next two years!

In fact, eight of Taiwan's top 10 grossing films last year grossed less than NT$20 million. And this year is only October, there are already five movies with a box office of more than 30 million, of which "eT Alien" has been screened in Taiwan for three consecutive months, and the box office is as high as more than 67 million. The box office of "eT" alone is more than the top three films on Taiwan's annual box office list last year combined.

And the most ironic thing is that Taiwan's first movie with a box office of more than 100 million yuan was actually "The Last Emperor", which was released after martial law was lifted. This is a movie shot on location in the Forbidden City, and it can't pass the political review of the Taiwan Electrical Inspection Office until now.

With the prosperity of Taiwan's film market, Hong Kong producers are bound to pay more and more attention to the Taiwan market, which makes Kang Jianfei, who is targeted by Taiwan's Information Bureau, quite painful.

After being released for three consecutive months and experiencing several rounds of screenings, the cumulative box office of "God of Gamblers" in Taiwan is 53.87 million Taiwan dollars, equivalent to Hong Kong dollars

More than 10 million, second only to "eT Alien" at the box office.

And "Five Lucky Stars", which shined in Hong Kong, has a box office of less than NT$20 million in Taiwan. This is not to say that Taiwanese audiences don't like "Five Lucky Stars" very much, the biggest problem is probably the relationship between distribution and publicity. The promotion cost of "God of Gamblers" in Taiwan is more than three times that of "Five Lucky Stars", and it is also a joint cooperation between two Taiwanese distribution companies.

Before the hit in Taiwan, the cumulative box office of "God of Gamblers" in the Nanyang region had reached more than 62 million Hong Kong dollars, plus the box office of Hong Kong was more than 33 million, and the cumulative box office of "God of Gamblers" was close to 100 million Hong Kong dollars.

In Japan and South Korea, although the box office of "God of Gamblers" is not as good as Cheng Long's movie, it still achieves good results. For Zhou Runfa to accumulate a lot of fans in the two countries.

In the end, the total box office of "God of Gamblers" in Asia is as much as 120 million. Countless Hong Kong industry peers have died in the red, and gambling films have become popular in the following decade or so.

Contrary to the fact that the box office of the movie is very good, this year's Taiwan Golden Horse Awards has no share of DreamWorks at all, and all DreamWorks films have been shot by the Golden Horse Awards Organizing Committee, and the reasons for the shooting are naturally strange.

Perhaps, this is a warning from the Taiwan Information Bureau to Kang Jianfei.

……

In the large conference room of Phoenix TV, Zhong Jinghui put down the microphone with a smile and said to dozens of reporters below: "Friends of reporters. Now you can ask questions freely. ”

A female reporter took the lead in speaking: "Manager Zhong, now many viewers are looking forward to the sequel to "Bao Qingtian", does Phoenix Channel have any plans in this regard?" ”

"Of course, there will be a sequel," Zhong Jinghui said with a smile, "If you watch TV carefully, you should know that the full name of "Bao Qingtian" is "Bao Qingtian's Beauty Case", and DreamWorks will continue to shoot other public cases in the future." In fact. From the time the film was first planned, it was decided to make it into a series. ”

Another reporter asked: "Is the starring cast all the same?" ”

Jin Chaoqun next to Zhong Jinghui answered: "I have signed a contract with DreamWorks for five "Bao Qingtian", so at least within two or three years, the actors of Bao Daren should not be replaced. ”

The reporter asked unceremoniously: "Mr. Jin Chaoqun is Taiwanese, and I heard that you have been playing tricks in Taiwan before, but now you are an instant hit in Hong Kong." Is there anything you would like to say? ”

Jin Chaoqun said with a smile: "What I want to say is that if I didn't have the experience accumulated over the years in Taiwan, I wouldn't have the capital to become an instant hit in Hong Kong." ”

This answer was very outstanding, and Zhong Jinghui, Xu Xiaoming and others took the lead in applauding.

Jin Chaoqun added: "In addition, I would like to thank Mr. Kang Jianfei and Mr. Yu Jianping very much. It was they who discovered me and invited me to Hong Kong to film. In addition, I would also like to thank Xu Xiaoming for the producer and Zhong Jinghui for the manager. There are some other colleagues who are very serious and professional, who have helped me a lot and learned a lot of useful things. ”

The press conference is still ongoing, and the reason why Phoenix Channel and DreamWorks Television Production Department held a press conference is only because many viewers felt that they were not happy after the finale of "Bao Qingtian" and strongly requested to shoot a sequel to "Bao Qingtian".

Just a few days ago, while "God of Gamblers" was screened in Japan and Taiwan, the first part of "Bao Qingtian" "The Case of Quanmei" also ushered in the finale, with the highest rating of 69.4% that night. not only killed TVB Liu Dehua and Chen Yulian's version of "The Condor Heroes", but also made the major movie theaters crowded that night, and a lot of film companies suffered.

After the end of "Bao Qingtian", "Ming Pao Weekly" even devoted a six-page page to a special report on "Bao Qingtian". And novels such as "The Case of Bao Gong" and "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" in the bookstore were originally placed in the corner and covered with dust, but they have sold a lot in recent times.

After the finale of "Bao Qingtian", TVB's "The Condor Heroes" finally had a lot less pressure. Just when Fang Yihua thought that she could slow down, "He is from Jianghu" starring Wan Ziying, Zhou Xingchi, Wu Mengda, Mao Xianyun, Tian Niu and others followed closely behind, and the ratings of the first episode were as high as 42%.

This ratings result is largely due to the success of "Bao Qingtian", which makes many viewers habitually watch Phoenix Channel.

However, in the following days, the ratings of "He is from Jianghu" did not decline, but stabilized with a slight increase, which shows that "He is from Jianghu" has been recognized and loved by the audience.

In fact, compared with the version of the original time and space, many performance details of "He Comes from Jianghu" are different. Because Kang Jianfei only wrote the script for the first episode, the nonsensical comedy scenes that followed were all discussed by Zhou Xingchi, Wu Mengda, Mao Xianyun and Li Lizhi.

I have to say that Kang Jianfei and Phoenix Terrace are very lucky, Hong Kong citizens have just experienced the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar and social chaos, and many people are holding back their dissatisfaction in their hearts and have nowhere to vent it.

The various crazy and nonsensical plots in "He Comes from Jianghu" just cater to the psychology of Hong Kong citizens who oppose authority and want to vent, and they have become popular as quickly as a virus infection. It often happens that the whole family sits in front of the TV and watches "He's from Jianghu" with neurotic collective laughter.

Bored plots like Zhou Xingchi's invitation to Mao Xianyun to eat ice cream in the play have been imitated by young people in Hong Kong.

"Hey, pretty girl, I'll treat you to Bigfoot Ice Cream!"

This sentence has become the most popular pick-up language in recent times.

Wan Ziying and Tian Niu's acting skills in the play are obvious to all, but what is even more popular are Zhou Xingchi, Wu Mengda and Mao Xianyun, their nonsensical spoofs are really impressive.

The term "nonsensical" has also been officially accepted by the media and citizens of Hong Kong.

As for the wireless station, I heard that Fang Yihua has been angry several times, and I don't know how she will find a way to win back a game. (To be continued.)
