Hong Jinbao's "Ghost Fighting" was successfully released in Golden Harvest Cinemas, Hong Jinbao's Baohe is Golden Harvest's satellite company, and Golden Harvest's support for Baohe is no less than that of the Xu brothers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info And with the strong support of Golden Harvest, the box office appeal of kung fu superstar Hong Jinbao, and the temptation of Chen Shaoyi's script, coupled with the curiosity of the new type of movie such as ghost movies, attracted too many fans to enter the theater, Golden Harvest Cinema did not lose too much traffic because of the painting of "Nightclub", and the attendance rate of the theater line is still not bad, for which the first box office of "Ghost Fight" achieved good results, winning 920,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Although the first box office of "Ghost Fights Ghost" is not comparable to the demonic more than 1.5 million yuan of "Modern Bodyguard" and "Nightclub", it is still the third place this year, and it is also the third place in the first box office in Hong Kong film history, surpassing the first box office of more than 800,000 yuan of "Brother and Brother".

According to this rhythm, there is absolutely no problem for the box office of "Ghost Fighting" to exceed 10 million, following Chen Long, Xu Brothers, Chen Shaoyi, another superstar is about to enter the 10 million box office club, which completely indicates that the Hong Kong film industry has really fully recovered and risen, and the film industry is definitely a huge tempting cake, and these have to be reported by the media.

The success of "Ghost Fight" made Hong Jinbao smile from ear to ear, and Baohe was directly on the right track, opening the mountain as an instant hit, and his fame increased like a fly, and he went hand in hand with another satellite company of Golden Harvest, Xu Brothers, and became Golden Harvest's right-hand man, and in one fell swoop suppressed the excitement caused by the previous New Art City.

Hong Jinbao has to thank Chen Shaoyi every time he calls, and when he meets acquaintances, he has to praise himself for his vision, cooperate with Chen Shaoyi, and getting the script of "Ghost Fighting Ghost" from Chen Shaoyi is the most correct thing he has done in his life, which makes people feel that Hong Da Fat also has times of verbosity.

In the blink of an eye, it is about to be October, since Tan Yonglin got a classic "Water Flower" from Chen Shaoyi, Polygram immediately used this "Water Flower" to help Tan Yonglin make an album, this album sold well, and won the double platinum sales in Hong Kong within a few days of release, making Tan Yonglin really prosperous, and Zhang Guirong, who was brilliant in Xu Guanjie's concert before, surpassed many old-timers in the music scene and became the first-line artist in the Hong Kong music scene.

Originally, the song "Flowers in the Water" was given to Tan Yonglin by Chen Shaoyi, but after all, it is a commercial operation, and Polygram is a large record company, so naturally it will not be so unrelatable, and Chen Shaoyi's song is asked for nothing, because this "Water Flower" is really excellent, in the end, Polygram still gave Chen Shaoyi a 10% income from the album. Chen Shaoyi doesn't care about this, if people want to give it, they won't want it, although it's not much, but it's also money.

During this time, Chen Shaoyi was most happy with "Modern Bodyguard", and after some hard work, it was finally released in the United States.

MGM, one of the Hollywood entertainment giants in the United States, fell in love with this ghost horse comedy without Li Xiaolong and not a kung fu movie, at first MGM directly threw down 30 dollars and wanted to buy out the copyright of "Modern Bodyguard" released in the United States, Chen Shaoyi naturally did not want this, which is also the delay in the release of "Modern Bodyguard" in the United States. The copyright of "Modern Bodyguard", Chen Shaoyi was given to the Xu Brothers, and if it was directly bought out by MGM, Chen Shaoyi would not get a penny, how could Chen Shaoyi, who has a law, do this kind of thing.

Fortunately, MGM saw the success of Teresa Teng's tour in the United States not long ago, and the sense of nationality of Chinese Americans was unprecedentedly high, in order to earn money from these Chinese Americans, they fell in love with this "Modern Bodyguard", which has a very good box office in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, and is ready to use this film to fight for the box office, so after Chen Shaoyi's soft grinding and hard bubbles, he finally agreed to give Chen Shaoyi and others two percent of the box office share of "Modern Bodyguard".

Chen Shaoyi is still resentful of this, thinking that MGM is a little stingy and too much of a bully, but the situation is stronger than people, in line with the principle that making a little more is a little more, and no matter how small the mosquito legs are, it is also meat, Chen Shaoyi still chooses to cooperate with MGM.

After the two parties signed the contract, "Modern Bodyguard" began to officially land at MGM Cinemas. MGM only released "Modern Bodyguard" in Chinatown theaters across the United States, so the scale of the release was not large, and there were only more than 20 theaters in the United States. However, the box office of "Modern Bodyguard" in the United States was not bad, after the success of Teresa Teng's tour, Chinese people all over the United States walked into MGM theaters to enjoy this "Modern Bodyguard" in line with the intention of continuing to support their compatriots, "Modern Bodyguard" did not make these enthusiastic Chinese Americans waste ticket prices in vain, the ghost horse humor in the play was very popular with Chinese Americans, and also attracted many whites and blacks who like Chinese culture, and won $250,000 at the box office in the United States in the first day.

The first box office of "Modern Bodyguard" of 250,000 is not much worse than the box office of most domestic movies in the United States, and "Modern Bodyguard" is worse than the domestic movies released in the United States at the same time, both in terms of the number of theaters and the quality of the film schedule.

American film and television companies only pay attention to Hollywood films, and somewhat discriminate against Asian films, including Chinese-language films, and even European films are not very popular. Perhaps in their eyes, there are only Bruce Lee's kung fu films, which can be regarded as excellent films, and the others are not in their eyes, so Hollywood's introduction of foreign language films is almost a direct buyout, enriching the type of theatrical films, so as not to make American fans tired of watching Hollywood movies all day long. This is somewhat equivalent to giving a radish and green vegetable to American movie fans who are accustomed to eating big fish and meat. As soon as a Chinese film is bought, many times it is randomly stuffed into a few theaters for release, and the scale and time of the release will naturally not be very good, and the box office will naturally not be good.

In fact, Li Xiaolong was able to become a world-class superstar and be sought after by Hollywood, which was closely related to the international situation at that time.

As we all know, the social form of China is completely different from that of Western countries, and Western countries led by the United States have a strong hostility towards China and have demonized China one after another, and China is Satan and an evil dragon in their eyes.

However, in the sixties and seventies of the twentieth century, it was the most rebellious time for young people in Europe, America and Western countries, many people began to disbelieve in God, but to Satan.

At this time, China, which was promoted as Satan at that time, naturally fell into the eyes of the majority of rebels, and there were even Western filmmakers who made such a strange movie as "The Occupation of Paris by the Hong Guards", which made my generation sigh that there are all kinds of strange things in the world.

It is in this context that Li Xiaolong shows China's most mysterious Chinese kung fu to the world, and it is naturally very popular with the world. Americans are different from Chinese, many of them are not political, and taxpayers are the greatest. Li Xiaolong's mysterious Chinese kung fu was very popular, and American filmmakers naturally regarded Li Xiaolong as a cash cow, and then the world began to hype, and the word "gongfu" officially became a popular word all over the world, and Li Xiaolong was naturally known and recognized by the world, and suddenly became a superstar.

In addition, in the early 70s, with the visit of US President Nixon to China, China and the United States began to formally cooperate, and China also replaced Taiwan to join the United Nations. More than 5,000 years of civilization and culture are extraordinary, and many people around the world have become obsessed with Chinese culture at once, and Li Xiaolong has become more and more popular with the world.

Of course, Li Xiaolong's success is inseparable from his ability and hard work, and he is also a person of great luck, success is inevitable. But it's a pity that Li Xiaolong's luck was too good in the early stage, and he was jealous of the heavens, and it ended directly at his most glorious time, which is sighing!

I won't talk about the future, let's talk about business.

"Modern Bodyguard" can be so strong at the box office under such unfavorable conditions, which is much of MGM's surprise, MGM only thought that the total box office of "Modern Bodyguard" could be two or three million US dollars, and MGM only planned to earn some pocket money; But now it seems that "Modern Bodyguard" has given MGM a big surprise.

The box office of "Modern Bodyguard" definitely has a trend of going to the next level, MGM saw that there were profits to be made, and couldn't wait to adjust the number of films scheduled for each day of "Modern Bodyguard", and the number of shows originally scheduled during the day was also adjusted by MGM to the evening, and the box office of "Modern Bodyguard" went straight up, and the box office of the second day directly surged to $400,000.

This time, "Modern Bodyguard" is a real success in the United States.
