Chapter 246: Mong Kok Carmen
And in order to explain why the Sun Party, a transnational criminal organization, produced a liquid machine qì man with an oriental face, Meng Chao also explained it in the script.
The reason is that the traitor fled to Huaxia, and for the sake of the female machine Qì Maria to act more conveniently and better carry out the task of killing the traitor, so the Sun Party made her the face of a Chinese woman, so this role is still played by Ye Qianwen!
It has been almost half a year since the planning of "Iron Armor Maria" started filming, but for better results, the filming progress of this movie is very slow!
And spending money like running water, the 50 million invested by Meng Chao is now very little, so Xu Ke's pressure is also very great!
But Meng Chao didn't put too much pressure on him, but always encouraged him not to be too nervous and work hard to shoot this "Iron Armor Invincible Maria".
And when Meng Chao proposed that the members of the Sun Party be replaced by Hollywood actors, he also proposed to Xu Ke his ambition to attack the global film market!
Because of the huge global film market as a guarantee, Xu Ke's pressure was instantly much less.
And Xu Ke naturally has also watched "The Terminator", and knows that if he follows Meng Chao's shooting ideas, maybe this "Iron Armor Invincible Maria" can also become another "Terminator", so during the filming process, everyone is very worried, only Meng Chao and Xu Ke still have great confidence!
And this movie was filmed very slowly, but the shooting speed of another movie, "Ip Man", was so fast that it scared people to death!
In about twenty days, the movie has been filmed.
There are only two scenes left, which are Ip Man played by Meng Chao and fight ten. There is also the final competition between Ip Man played by Meng Chao and Dongying Officer played by Chiba Shinichi!
These two scenes are considered to be big scenes in the movie, and they are also the two most interesting fight scenes. Therefore, Meng Chao is also shooting very seriously.
……
After the time entered August, there were three more movies that were amazing.
One of them came from Meng Chao's old rival - Golden Harvest Film Company.
This time it's a new drama for Brother Cheng Long. That is, "Police Story Sequel", this movie has already received 25 million at the box office on the first day of release!
It far exceeds the millions of gambling films "Supreme" that Meng Chao invested in Wang Jing, and in terms of word-of-mouth, the reputation of "Police Story Sequel" is also better.
This movie inherits the plot of the previous work, at the beginning, the protagonist Chen Jiaju was too desperate and faced the worry of being demoted and his girlfriend, and Zhu Tao, who was a guest starring director Chu Yuan, was unwilling, and kept looking for someone to provoke and deal with Chen Jiaju, but in the middle and late stages, Zhu Tao's problem was solved, but several young bomb blackmail bandits appeared!
This was followed by an endless stream of bomb cases. In order to succeed in blackmailing, these young bandits even kidnapped Chen Jiaju's girlfriend and threatened him to help them collect money.
The fight scenes in this movie are undoubtedly more popular than the previous work, and a lot of explosion scenes have been added, which is very exciting!
Therefore, as soon as it was launched, it immediately established the image of Brother Cheng Long's desperate Saburo, and it also became a blockbuster movie series!
There is a principle for making movies all over the world. That's the sequel movie is the least risky!
Therefore, film companies all over the world hope that their blockbuster films can make sequels.
And Brother Cheng Long's "Police Story Sequel" starring himself this year was a big hit, which laid the foundation for the success of the entire police story series, coupled with the small profit of "Overlord Flower" invested, it also sold 200 million box office. It's perfectly possible to make a sequel......
So with Cheng Long's wonderful performance, Golden Harvest Film Company finally raised its eyebrows, and "Police Story Sequel" beat the gambling film "Supreme" invested by Genesis Film Company at the box office. Therefore, the boss Zou Wenhuai was very happy......
The second part is interesting, from "Carmen in Mong Kok" co-produced by Genesis Films and Yingzhijie Films.
In this movie, Zhang Manyu showed super acting skills this time. Zhang Xueyou and Liu Dehua also contributed the most wonderful performances since the film.
And the most worth mentioning is that this "Mong Kok Carmen" belongs to the directorial debut of Wang Jiawei, the king of sunglasses, and the movie itself is a Jianghu movie. But the shooting is quite literary.
The love between the hero and heroine in it is very literary, and the brotherhood between the male number one and the male number two is also very literary, but the fight is very clean and neat!
Although the king of sunglasses has won many movies in the future, Meng Chao always thinks that this "Mong Kok Carmen" is the most interesting!
Because the movie itself has a good grasp of the balance between commercialization and literature, it will not make the audience unclear after watching it, and even want to get up and leave after seeing half of it.
For this reason, the box office of this movie is also quite amazing, with a box office of 17 million on the first day and 75 million in the first week!
It is the highest-grossing film of Yingzhijie Film Company since its opening, and has even won several nominations for the Golden Bull Award for Chinese Films!
For example, the nominations for Best Supporting Actor, Best Actress and Best Screenplay are the most glorious moments for Deng Guangrong's investment in films!
And the king of sunglasses also won the trust of Deng Guangrong, the boss of the film company, at this time, and thus began his road to winning awards by dying in the film industry and killing the boss!
Finally, there is another movie that is "Three's World" by Debao Films.
This movie is a typical success story of a small knife and a big tree, and the investment in the movie itself is not large, it is almost the same investment as a family comedy like "Rich and Rich", and it belongs to the urban romance comedy of the new era, basically the investment is just the salary of a few actors and directors Xian Qiran.
The male protagonist of the movie is Lin Zixiang, and the plot can't be the love and hate of urban people, but because the plot of the movie itself is very smooth, and the dialogue is very humorous, it has become the dark horse of the year!
The box office on the first day actually reached 20 million, and the box office in the first week also exceeded 100 million, which is not much worse than "The Supreme".
made the young Mr. Pan more determined to make his decision to make movies, and since this year, the entire film industry has gradually entered the stage of three-legged development!
The original Shaw Brothers Film Company and Struggle Film Company are no longer in the limelight, and Golden Harvest Film Company is still developing smoothly, but there are two new rivals, namely Debao Film Company and Genesis Film Company! (To be continued.) )
