Without Yongsheng's investment, Long Wu naturally would not appear in "The Gambler", and correspondingly, Wang Jing did not invite Zhou Yan to make a cameo.

What if there are no two key people?

Wang Jing was not embarrassed at all, the master did not come, the apprentice came.

"The Gambler" begins like this:

After defeating the gambling demon Chen Jincheng in a shocking gamble on the high seas, the gambling god saw through the world and had no intention of fighting again, so he took the knife boy as an apprentice, passed on his life's skills to the knife boy, and lived a peaceful and quiet life with his wife in the French garden area.

A year later, Dao Zai reappeared in the rivers and lakes accompanied by Long Jiu (played by Zhou Haimei, the younger sister of Long Wu), representing the master to devote himself to charity with gambling skills, known as the gambler, and then at the charity scene, Hussein and Dao Zai lost a big bet, which led to the whole story.

So the beginning of "The Gambler" is still similar to Zhang Jin's memory, the difference is that Long Wu was directly replaced by Long Jiu, Zhou Haimei played this role, wearing a big red windbreaker with slightly curly long hair, if it weren't for throwing the audience a few big eyes from time to time, Long Jiu's dress would be quite eye-catching.

What really changed was the plot after Daozi and Long Jiu returned to Hong Kong.

After returning to Hong Kong, Ah Zhen (Wang Guxian) suspected that the relationship between Dao Zai and Long Jiu was not ordinary, and Sui Hao and Long Jiu staged a few scenes of jealousy, such as Ah Zhen felt that her breasts were small and she did not have an advantage in terms of figure, so she visited famous doctors all over the world to make her breasts bigger, and she was almost deceived.

"Hey, it's obviously a dusty little Qian, who was tossed into a stupid girl by Wang Jing!" When Zhang Jin saw this, he couldn't help but complain, Tai Nima ruined the classics.

Although the jealousy between the two women is a bit funny, but in this way, the roles of the two women increase, which makes Andy Lau's roles decrease, after all, many viewers came to see Andy Lau play cool, but this guy finally played hook girls, and he was so unhappy.

Chen Shaohua was eating popcorn with relish, and did not forget to remind Zhang Jin, "You learn more, and see how Hua Tsai makes girls happy." ”

Zhang Jin raised his forehead, well, the places that men and women pay attention to are really different.

The plot of the knife boy seducing the girl continues for twenty minutes, and the story finally returns to the main line, Hussein because he avenges his father-in-law, and designs a gambling ship under the banner of the God of Gamblers, wanting to lure the rich people from all over Asia on the ship, defraud the money, and ruin the God of Gamblers.

After receiving the news, Knife Boy immediately went there, but Hussein and his gang designed to hold Ah Zhen and Crow hostage, so that Knife Boy did not dare to reveal his true identity.

In order to win $3 million in the shortest possible time, the knife boy killed all sides with his gambling strategy.

Entering this stage, "The Gambler" finally feels a little bit.

I have to say that Wang Jing has indeed put a lot of effort into photography, and Andy Lau's several gambling actions are particularly cool, and many Andy female fans in the theater scream.

Seeing that Daozi was about to win $3 million and qualify for entering the gambling ship, Hussein's monitor had no achievements, so he had to know the killer from the mainland - Uncle and nephew Acan.

The word Ah Can is more discriminatory, from Wang Jing's 1979 screenplay "People in the Net", in which Cheng Can is from the mainland, he is rustic, he is idle when he first arrives in Xiangjiang, and he can eat 30 hamburgers in one breath and is a sensation.

Ah Can in "The Gambler" is played by Zhang Weijian, and Ah Can under the camera is also dressed as a scumbag, munching on a hamburger with a particularly bullish look in his eyes, and his uncle follows behind, carrying a particularly exaggerated basket with a bunch of burgers inside.

"Fuck, Wang Jing, this bastard, actually used such low-level means!" Zhang Jin couldn't help but curse in his heart when he saw it.

Because the next plot introduces Ah Can's special function, he ran to Xiangjiang with his uncle after committing a crime in the mainland, and was taken in by Hussein when he was about to starve to death, and was offered like a dog.

"How can this be reasonable, Wang Jing is too despicable, such a setting is completely scandalizing our "Gambling Saint"!" Chen Shaohua was also angry, and the good impression he had just established for "The Gambler" disappeared instantly.

After Ah Can joined the battlefield, he directly used the special function to abuse the knife boy, and in the face of the powerful and evil special function, the knife boy was defeated and retreated, and in the whole process, Ah Can did not forget to eat the hamburger in addition to his work, and his eyes did not forget to float around on Long Jiu's body, and even swallowed saliva and made a few obscene movements.

After the defeat, the knife boy returned home to get drenched in the rain, and Long Jiu also accompanied him in the rain, and the heavy rain fell on Long Jiu, and the hazy beauty made many viewers feast their eyes.

"This Zhou Haimei ......" Chen Shaohua shook her head and sighed: "She is not suitable for this way, she is too contrived, but she is not as natural as the stupid girl Ah Zhen played by Wang Guxian, at least Ah Zhen can win everyone's sympathy, she was tricked by Wang Jing and came to show off her figure and attract attention." ”

Zhang Jin snorted coldly, it was not only Zhou Haimei who was played, but also Zhang Weijian.

"The Gambler" ran for 80 minutes, and in the last 20 minutes, Wang Jing played a hand-turning scene.

A guy who claimed to be Master Ah Chan appeared, and like Ah Can, this Master Zhang appeared in the guise of a beggar and promised to help Dao Boy deal with the criminals, but asked for a reward of 10 million US dollars.

Invisibly, another knife was cut.

After the trio hit the gambling boat again, everyone originally thought that the protagonist camp had finally begun to kill all sides, but Wang Jing didn't.

At the critical moment, it turned out that Ah Can's master turned out to be a liar, and he had no special functions at all, and in the end, it was Long Jiu who opened his windbreaker and "secretly sent autumn waves" to Ah Can, causing Ah Can to squirt nosebleeds on the spot, and deliberately dispersed his skills, and Dao Zai turned the tide of the battle with his "exquisite" gambling skills.

In the end, Daozi Long Jiu teamed up to rescue Ah Zhen, and the three of them lived a life without shame and impatience.

When they came out of the theater, Zhang Jin and Chen Shaohua were in a bad mood.

Chen Shaohua said angrily: "Hmph, wait and see, I have to take Wang Jing as a target for the guide to this new film, and I will die in the dark!" Unexpectedly despicable mapping our "Gambling Saint", hum! ”

Unlike Chen Shaohua's single mapping of films, Zhang Jin's consideration is deeper, but he doesn't say it.

Zhang Jin said: "Okay, don't be angry, let's go home." ”

Chen Shaohua pouted and said: "I won't go back tonight, I will go to the magazine to work overtime, and if I don't have this bad breath, my mother will not give up!" ”

Zhang Jin said: "Okay, I'll work overtime with you." ”

――Dividing Line――

Early the next morning, related film review articles about "The Saint of Gambling" and "The Gambler" were also released.

"A plate of fatty pork filled with water, Wang Jing stuffed the essence of, pee and fart into "The Gambler".

""The Gambler" continues Wang Jing's consistent patchwork style, and openly calls out "The Saint of Gambling" in the film!"

""The Saint of Gambling" VS "The Gambler", I prefer "The Saint of Gambling"!"

"The Gambler loses morality, and the Gambling Saint wins."

"Wang Jing claims to be full of confidence in the box office of "The Gambler" and will definitely defeat some copycat works."

""The Gambler" has no chivalrous demeanor, and Wang Jing's immorality was condemned by insiders."

"The victory of the little people, Zhou Xingchi interprets nonsense to you."

"Zhou Xingchi and Wu Mengda performed well in "The Saint of Gambling", and Zhang Min was praised by the public for "Qi Meng".

Xiang Huasheng, the head of Yongsheng, said in an interview with this newspaper: "The Saint of Gambling" has a clever screenwriter, and Xingzi may become a new generation of comedy stars, and predicts that the box office of "The Saint of Gambling" will be good.

"Special functions and nonsensical, "The Saint of Gambling" should not be missed."

TVB Administration Building, Fang Yihua sighed a little depressedly after reading these newspapers.

Obviously, these reports are largely biased in favor of Zhang Jin's side, although Shaw Brothers has a public opinion artifact like TVB, but it focuses on TV dramas, and its influence on movies is not as good as that of "Jin Weekly".

The public opinion war is in a weak position, and the next thing is to look at the box office war.

"Hey, help me contact Debao's Pan Desheng...... Ah Sheng, I'm Fang Yihua, I want Debao to reserve a schedule for "The Gambler" in the next half a month, OK, that's it. ”

At the same time, Zhang Jin is also contacting the public screening, Xinbao doesn't need to ask, all support for the release of "The Saint of Gambling", Golden Harvest expressed a strong interest in "The Saint of Gambling", and also said that he would reserve a schedule, as for Debao, hehe, Zhang Jin hasn't called yet, and the phone has already been called.

"Well, we'll work together next time."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jin subconsciously knocked on the table, and Yuan Kui asked a little nervously, "How is it?" ”

"In terms of theaters, we have an advantage, there are more than 20 theaters in "The Gambler", and public opinion dominates, do you think there is a reason to lose this battle?" Zhang Jin said with a smile: "Brother Kui, take advantage of the past few days to rest, I can wait for you to open a new film soon." ”

"Urge, urge, you know urge!" Yuan Kui rolled his eyes and said: "I've been running in with Li Lianjie for more than two days, and I'm almost touching his situation, you let me be lazy for a few days, and wait for the box office to stabilize before mentioning the new film." ”

"Okay, anyway, the script is given to you, how to get the action you can do it!" Zhang Jin smiled bitterly.

The test screening is over, and the public screening officially begins.

After the first day of release, the box office of "The Gambler" was 3.05 million, and the box office of "The Saint of Gambling" was 2.9 million, which was slightly inferior.

After Wang Jing, who had been worried all night, heard this data, he breathed a long sigh of relief, "Hmph, there are many popular films, Lao Tzu is the God of Gambling!" ”

On the second day, the box office of "The Gambler" continued to rise, and "The Saint of Gambling" chased after it, and the two continued to maintain a distance of about 200,000 yuan.

Wang Jing is confident now, and boasted in the industry: "See, no matter how bad the outside world is, the audience still doesn't continue to watch my films in the theater, what if he has many theaters, I can't raise my head under the pressure of being pressed by me, this is the gap!" ”

On the third day, the box office of "The Gambler" still rose, with a cumulative box office of 8.5 million, while the box office of "The Saint of Gambling" suddenly made a force, with a cumulative box office of 9.03 million, directly exceeding the 530,000 of "The Gambler".

This time, Wang Jing's face couldn't hold on, but he still held on, "The box office list, it is inevitable that there will be ups and downs, and there are 20 more theaters than us." ”

On the fourth day, the cumulative box office of "The Saint of Gambling" was 10.2 million, and the box office of "The Gambler" not only did not rise, but declined, with a cumulative box office of 9.2 million, which was 1 million weaker.

That's the gap!

--What's more, there was a power outage at the construction site in the middle of the night, so I continued to ask for recommendation tickets.
