On February 2, 1983, Oriental Records was officially established, Anita Mui and Zhou Huimin became the first batch of signed singers, after some testing, Feng Tianzhi set his sights on Anita Mui, compared with the so-called jade girl Zhou Huimin, he felt that Anita Mui had greater potential and was ready to release an album in March, and in Ye Tian's view, Anita Mui and Zhou Huimin were no different, and Zhou Huimin was also eligible to use the resources that Anita Mui could enjoy.

On February 5th, the most cruel Chinese New Year file in the Hong Kong film industry officially started, as if it was agreed, on the same day that the Golden Princess released "The Best Fear", Golden Harvest Cinemas and Cent's Cinemas screened "The Legend of the Swordsmen of Xinshu Mountain", and the two major cinemas were fully sealed. Kill the Golden Princess, the moment the film is put on the screen, Zou Wenhuai, Wei Yifu, and Lei Juekun are waiting for the result together, if "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" overwhelms "Best Partner", then Princess Jin will be in danger, Jiahe and the Wei family will continue to join forces and continue to suppress Princess Jin, on the contrary, if "Best Partner" suppresses "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", it means that Princess Jin has completely broken the blockade of the two giants, and the biggest winner is Lei Juekun.

Jiahe Company, Zou Wenhuai and Cai Yongchang were discussing the release of "Five Lucky Stars", He Guanchang hurriedly came to Zou Wenhuai, holding the freshly released movie theater attendance statistics table in his hand, and he couldn't see anything unusual from his face.

Zou Wenhuai looked up and lifted his glasses: "Ah Chang is here." ”

He Guanchang said with a smile: "Ah Huai, the data has been counted, the situation is similar to our estimate, on the first day of release, two consecutive shows, the attendance rate is more than seventy percent, and it is estimated that it can rise by one liter at night." ”

Zou Wenhuai reminded: "We must also pay attention to collecting audience evaluations, if you want the film to be a big hit, it is not good to lack word-of-mouth." ”

He Guanchang smiled and said: "The attendance rate on the first day exceeded that of "Five Lucky Stars", and the final box office is likely to exceed 30 million, definitely surpassing "Best Partner" in Xinyi City, Xu Ke is a talented director. ”

Cai Yongchang's tone was very complicated. Said sourly: ""The Five Lucky Stars of Whimsy" sells 30 million is a big profit, and our "The Legend of the Swordsmen of Xinshu Mountain" has an investment of more than 10 million alone, and the box office collection of 30 million is a return to the capital. ”

Zou Wenhuai raised his eyebrows, since He Guanchang replaced Cai Yongchang as the manager of the theater, the relationship between the two is not as good as before, this is the situation that Zou Wenhuai is most unwilling to see, and he interrupted: "How is the situation on Princess Jin's side?" ”

He Guanchang said with a smile: "According to the intelligence analysis collected, the average attendance rate of "Best Partner" is about seventy percent, which is far less popular than the first one. ”

Hearing the news, Zou Wenhuai was really relieved. The biggest purpose of Golden Harvest's investment in "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" is to suppress the Golden Princess, this is not a battle of will, but a real benefit, only by completely crushing the Golden Princess, Golden Harvest can enjoy the movie dividend exclusively and dominate the entertainment industry. This is the benefit of monopoly, and the rules are set by Golden Harvest.

He Guanchang proposed: "Ah Huai, what do you think of Xu Ke? ”

Zou Wenhuai's only impression of Xu Ke was: "It's too good at spending money!" ”

He Guanchang pondered for a moment and reminded: "Don't you think he is very similar to a person?" ”

Zou Wenhuai squinted and said, "Ye Tian? ”

He Guanchang nodded. analyzed: "Both of them started with comedies, Xu Ke filmed a "The Legend of the Swordsmen of Xinshu Mountain", and Ye Tian filmed a "Huang Feihong", and the creativity is very close. I heard that there are many similarities in the shooting techniques. ”

Zou Wenhuai disagreed, how could Ye Tian's "Huang Feihong" be compared with his "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", the former was only five million production costs. Not even half of "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", if the two films are put in the same schedule, Zou Wen is confident that Ye Tian will have no return, in the city of Hong Kong, the film pays attention to luck and strength, last year Golden Harvest tasted a bitter time, and the "Young Master Long" created with a lot of money lost in front of "Best Partner", and the box office gap between the two was tens of millions.

After a pause, He Guanchang said again: "Do you want to talk to Xu Ke, let's support him to set up a company as a Jiahe Satellite Company." ”

Zou Wenhuai nodded slowly: "You can contact it, the premise is that "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain" is a big hit, so Xu Ke can consider making a sequel, but you tell him that the production cost should be controlled within five million!" ”

He Guanchang smiled: "I understand this!" ”

It is not only the Golden Harvest family that collects the attendance rate of the cinema, Lei Juekun also received the news from the Golden Princess Cinema Line, the attendance rate of "Best Partner" is more than seventy percent, Lei Juekun is in a good mood, because the box office of the Golden Princess Cinema has increased by three percent, although it is seventy percent of the attendance rate, but the income is no different from the previous full, and the final box office is still that number, for the release of Golden Harvest "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", Lei Juekun purely has the mentality of watching jokes, when Xu Ke proposed the idea, he categorically rejected it, the reason is very simple, ", " "The Legend of the Swordsmen of New Shu Mountain" is a new type of film, unlike "Best Partner" with the shadow of "007", the novel "The Legend of Shu Mountain" cannot be sold in foreign countries at all, and foreigners will naturally not like the movie "The Legend of the Swordsmen of New Shu Mountain", even if it is sold in Hong Kong, it will lose very badly in other cities.

Compared with Zou Wenhuai and Lei Juekun's happy mood, Shaw felt very heavy, last night's test screening of "Interstellar Blunt Tire", the effect was unsatisfactory, he originally planned to make a "Star Wars" type film, but the result was very realistic, "Interstellar Blunt Tire" did not have the slightest shadow of "Star Wars", compared with the grand scene of "Star Wars", some stunts of "Interstellar Blunt Tire" seemed naïve.

Fang Yihua brought a cup of ginseng tea and said with a forced smile: "Today's theater will release "The Legend of the Swordsman of Xinshu Mountain", and the effect is very good. ”

Shaw has a calm face, no matter how high the attendance rate of the film is, it is also a film of Golden Harvest, the two theaters have been screened for a year, and he found that the films released by Golden Harvest are big sellers, and the Kui family is purely playing soy sauce, and some films are screened for three or four days, and the potential is exhausted, because the attendance rate does not meet the requirements and the next painting, so that it is cheaper for Golden Harvest.

For example, last year's "Yang Guo and Little Dragon Girl" was screened by Jiahe, on the third day, the attendance rate of individual theaters fell to 20%, according to the contract, only the film can be changed, the films released by Jiahe are often screened in two theaters for more than ten days, so there is a gap, "Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu" only has a box office of hundreds of thousands, but Jiahe can win tens of millions of box office, and the money has been earned by Jiahe, which makes Yifu very conflicted, give up the continuous screening, cheapen the Golden Princess, continue to be screened, and cheapen Jiahe, it seems that the Shuangshi can't take advantage of it.

Fang Yihua said with a smile: "The theater schedule has been set, February 12th." ”

"It's a good time!" Shaw praised it, and "Interstellar Blunt Tire" was released a week later, purely to grab the box office of "Best Partner".

Fang Yihua quietly exhaled, "Interstellar Blunt Tire" is nominally produced by Shaw, but in fact, she is in charge, during the filming, she drastically cut the production cost, so that "Interstellar Blunt Tire" was filmed in four different ways, and "Star Wars" is 108,000 miles away.
