ps: Look at the exclusive story behind "Smiling Proud Xiangjiang", listen to your more suggestions for the novel, pay attention (add friends on WeChat - add public account - enter qdread), and quietly tell me! As soon as he received the news, Hong Jinbao notified Lin Xi.

Regarding the amazing box office table of "Ghost Fighting", Lin Xi's reaction was not as excited as Hong Jinbao imagined, but persuaded Hong Jinbao to calm down, because the good show was still to come.

Hong Jinbao was still wrong at first, thinking that Lin Xi was talking about the box office of "Ghost Fighting Ghosts" in the second week.

But from the second week, the popularity of "Ghost Fighting" began to subside, and various problems of small-scale zuò movies appeared, and the audience only watched a freshness, and after this novelty passed, the box office growth was no longer as explosive as the first week.

The final statistics came out, and the box office of "Ghost Fighting" in the second week suddenly fell to more than 3 million, which was more than 2 million less than Hong Jinbao and Shaw Brothers expected.

Even so, the total box office of "Ghost Fighting" still exceeded 10 million, which is already a miracle for a movie that costs only more than one million to make.

What is really surprising is the "Scary" that was released next, also starring Hong Jinbao, and has a good reputation for the previous one, this movie has collected more than 4 million box office in just three days, and its popularity is even better than the first "Ghost Fight".

From the bottom of my heart, "Scary People" has made significant progress over "Ghost Fighting" in terms of production investment and actor configuration, because this movie is the last in the trilogy to start filming. gathers all the people of "Ghost Fighting" and "People Scared Ghosts", and has a big beauty like Zhong Chuhong as the starring role, which adds a lot of highlights to the film, and it is not surprising that the results are better than "Ghost Fighting" after the release.

Shaw Brothers also learned wisely this time, and arranged sufficient screenings from the beginning. Therefore, the box office of "Scary" exceeded 10 million three days faster than "Ghost Fighting", and it took only eight days to do it, and the box office growth momentum after this did not slow down immediately, and still maintained a daily income of seven or eight hundred thousand.

"Ghost Fighting" is still being screened at this time, although the number of screenings has been reduced by most of the time, but because of the influence of "Scary". The box office actually showed another reverse growth, and the box office has rushed to 13 million in three weeks after its release.

While the heat of the two movies is still not gone, the last part of the trilogy, "People Scared Ghosts", was also officially released.

Although there are no eye-catching beauties, the plot of "People Scared Ghosts" still continues the style of the first two comedies and horrors, and Lin Zhengying did not show his ghost-hunting skills in his screen debut. showed off a pear orchard skill.

The scenes of playing ghosts and scary people in the film are all shot at a very high level, and the action design and use of props are also very good, but the fly in the ointment is that most of the scenes are almost playing tricks on each other, and the main line is not clear enough, which makes the overall plot a little scattered.

Despite this, the film still won more than 5 million at the box office within a week after its release, which is about the same as the first "Ghost Fight". but slightly lost to the second "Scary".

At this time, "Ghost Fights Ghost" has been officially painted, and the box office is reported to be 13.7 million, Hong Jinbao scolded Shaw Brothers for not being authentic after receiving this result. If the screening time is extended for two more days, maybe the box office of this movie will exceed 14 million.

On the other hand, the box office of "Scary" has exceeded 15 million, although the number of viewers and attendance per show have dropped sharply, but Shaw Brothers still spares no effort to promote this movie and arrange the best times and times. The purpose is to pull down the highest box office record of 18 million for "Modern Bodyguard".

It's a pity that the box office potential of "Scary" has been fully released before. No matter how hard Shaw Brothers tried to promote it, in the end, the film only won 16 million at the box office when it was painted.

Because of this movie. Hong Jinbao and Zhong Chuhong suddenly changed from unknown actors to well-known big stars, but what really caught the attention of major film companies was the box office table of the three films "Ghost Fights Ghost", "People Are Scary", and "People Are Scary".

The cost of four million has brought more than 40 million box office, and the appearance of a single film can be said to be accidental, but all of them appear together, echoing each other's means of building momentum, which is obviously planned in advance.

"I didn't notice it before, this Hong Jinbao is a talent, but these three movies have just the right grasp of the shape, timing and audience psychology, and it is impossible for it to be from a martial artist like Hong Jinbao."

Shao Yifu put down the ginseng tea bowl in his hand, glanced at the person in charge of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line standing in front of him, and gave such a conclusion.

"Uncle Sixth is right, I also think that Hong Jinbao can't play such tricks, and besides, his company has only been established now, under normal circumstances, it should only be filmed first to test the water, and then continue after the effect is good, and it is indeed a little abnormal to shoot three films together like now."

Shao Yifu knocked on his desk with his hand, "Then do you see what the problem is?" ”

The person in charge of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line looked nervous, and hurriedly replied: "After the release of "Ghost Fighting", I specifically inquired about this matter, these three movies were made by Hong Jinbao and his brothers, and there was no abnormality in the filming process, which I have confirmed with people who have worked in that crew, and the real inside story is estimated to be known by only a few people, and these people are very tight, and they have not revealed any useful news. ”

"In other words, after a long time, you can't find anything?"

Shao Yifu's tone was tinged with dissatisfaction.

The person in charge of the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly explained: "It's not completely ungained, I compared the three movies and found that the scripts were all written by a person named Amu, but I asked the crew, this person never appeared during the filming of the film, I think as long as I figure out the identity of this person, the truth will be revealed." ”

"Give you three days, whatever you do. I want to know who this Amu is! A hint of determination flashed in Shao Yifu's eyes.

At the same time, Zou Wenhuai was also guessing the true identity of this Amu with He Guanchang.

"Who is this person who has such an ability, but hides his head and tail?"

Zou Wenhuai paced back and forth in the office with his hands behind his back.

"It doesn't matter who this person is. This time we were indeed almost planted in each other's hands, and it was so dangerous to think about it, "Scary" was only two million short of breaking the record of "Modern Bodyguard", and Shaw Brothers was about to be discontinued, and it was still possible to return to the light like this! ”

He Guanchang was still a little afraid when he talked about this, if Jiahe worked hard to support Xu Guanwen's record, it would have been broken by a movie that cost only more than one million. Jiahe's face is estimated to have no place to rest.

"You also said it, this is just a return to the light, the Shaw Brothers are not worried, the real threat to us is the New Art City, I heard that they have also made big moves recently. I think I was also stimulated by the previous three movies. ”

Zou Wenhuai casually mentioned such a sentence, but it reminded He Guanchang of one thing.

"I checked Hong Jinbao's information, two years ago he and Mecca of the new art city once partnered to open a company, after the two broke up, Mecca changed the name of the company to struggle, and then Lei Juekun intervened, which is now the new art city. I heard that Mecca and Hong Jinbao have always had a good personal relationship, will Hong Jinbao be attracted by Xinyicheng because of this? ”

Zou Wenhuai couldn't help frowning when he heard this, what He Guanchang was worried about. In his opinion, it is indeed possible, if there is no action on the part of Golden Harvest, it is equivalent to letting the new art city continue to grow.

"Find someone to contact Hong Jinbao immediately. As long as he is willing to join Golden Harvest, the conditions can be relaxed, but this is not the point, the most important thing is to find the Amu who wrote the script, figure out who he is, and if he can win this person over. It doesn't matter if Hong Jinbao is pulled away by Xinyi City. ”

He Guanchang immediately went to do this, but Zou Wenhuai was still not at ease. He called another one and ordered him to investigate the news of the screenwriter Amu.

Just when Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest began to take action, Hong Jinbao was also invited by Mecca to meet in a teahouse.

I said. The movies have already been released, and you have made the money you have earned, so you don't have to pretend to be a ghost like this, right? Who gave you this idea, and what's going on with that screenwriter Amu, you have to give me an explanation today, right? ”

Mecca touched her bald head, and looked at Hong Jinbao, who only cared about eating and drinking as soon as she sat down, with some headaches.

"Want to know the truth? Then ask the waiter to bring another cage of shrimp dumplings, I haven't eaten yet! ”

"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat, you still eat when you are so fat, and you are not afraid of dying!" Mecca complained, but beckoned the waiter to serve another basket of shrimp dumplings.

"It's a bit of a begging!" Hong Jinbao took out a piece of paper, wiped his mouth, and said with satisfaction.

Mecca knocked on the table with her chopsticks, "Then don't sell it, just say it!" ”

"You really want to know? Okay, put your ears together. ”

Hong Jinbao beckoned to Mecca, who hesitated for a moment, but finally complied.

"The answer is, no comment!"

Mecca retracted her head and glared at Hong Jinbao, who had succeeded in her treacherous face, so angry that she couldn't speak.

Hong Jinbao waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't joke with you, it's really not that I don't want to help, but that I promised the other party not to reveal his name." ”

Mecca became even more depressed when she heard this, "This is not something unseemly, why is it so mysterious?" ”

Hong Jinbao shook his head, with an unfathomable expression on his face.

"Don't say it, don't say it!"

"If you don't say it, forget it!" Mecca waved her hand angrily, "If you don't say I'll check it myself, I won't believe I can't find this person!" ”
