On July 27, the box office of "I'm Crazy for You" on the first day of release was not very good. The data fed back by the Debao cinema line was relatively slow, so that at noon the next day, when "SWAT Dragon Slayer" began to be released, Debao faced Lin Xiaozhi's inquiry, and the answer given by the theater was still in the first day's data.

Compared with them, the five theaters under Qiu Degen's name are much more convenient. The five theaters under Qiu Degen's name are 'Baojia', 'Liying', 'Gutiantun', 'Jinhe' and 'Dongzheng', except for the Dongzheng Theater, which was newly built in 81, the other four were bought by Qiu Degen in the sixties and seventies, because there is only one screening hall and the facilities are simple, these only more than 100 theaters usually have no movies at all, most of the year is theaters, but there are few fans to patronize.

Qiu Degen is really a believer, he promised Lin Xiaozhi that he gave Zheng Zeshi a new movie to make, and inevitably arranged for him, but the two divided the number of screenings equally, and because the release time was earlier than "Maoshan Taoist Fighting Zombies", in the two days before the release of "Maoshan", several theaters only made one of his films. According to the news obtained by Qiu Degen, the highest attendance rate of "I'm Crazy for Qingqing" on the first day of release in five theaters was 54%, and the average attendance rate was 43. 7%, a total of more than 2,400 movie tickets were sold in one day, which is not very good, but it is also more than the movie tickets sold on weekdays.

The first day of the release was an uneventful day, Lin Xiaozhi and many people in New Asia searched through major newspapers, and only found a group of news mentioning "I'm Crazy for Qing" in the news corner of the entertainment edition of "Oriental Daily" to report Debao Cinema, which made everyone's hearts sink.

The newspapers are full of news hyping the "Diary of a Big Husband" + "Love of Long and Short Feet" VS Golden Harvest's "Childe Amorous" invested by Xinyicheng. Zhou Runfa VS Zhou Runfa is a rare spectacle, since Wu Yusen's "The True Colors of Heroes" became popular in Southeast Asia, the name of the fairy hair has become more and more famous, and he has to take on several movies every year in the past few years, but he has a good personal relationship with Wu Yusen and Xu Ke, so the vast majority of the movies received are from Xinyicheng, this time Jiahe was able to invite him, a superstar named with Cheng Long, to make a movie for his own movie, although Fa Ge himself didn't feel it, but the media read another deep meaning, That is, Zhou Yanfa, who has a good relationship with Xinyicheng, has cracked in his personal relationship with Xinyicheng or Xu Ke.

Some people saw the contradiction between Fa Ge, Wu Yusen and Xu Ke, and Xinyicheng behind this, and some people read more things, the high-level discord in Xinyicheng has become more and more alienated in recent years, and now even exclusive superstars like Fa Ge have begun to film for rival film companies, in other words, the battle for the head of the Hong Kong film industry that has lasted for fifteen years, Golden Harvest seems to be going to boil Xinyicheng to death after fighting Shaw Brothers to death.

The box office of "I'm Crazy for You" on the first day, and it didn't get Debao Cinema until 2 pm on the second day of release. 19 theaters sold nearly 20,000 movie tickets in a single day, and the box office on the first day was 39. 20 thousand. It's not bad, because this achievement has reached nearly half of the single-day box office of Debao Cinema's best-selling movie "Chicken and Duck Talk", which has become the second best-selling movie in Debao. The tragedy is that "Chicken and Duck Talk" was released on July 14, and although it has been released for nearly half a month, this film of the three brothers of the Xu family who joined forces to act, after the box office exceeded 10 million and 15 million, it still charged towards 20 million with only a slight decrease. was released on the first day, but the box office was half inferior to "Chicken and Duck Talk", which has been released for half a month, and in the eyes of many people, the movie "I'm Crazy for Qing" may only barely recover its cost.

The long-awaited hit, at least judging from the performance of the box office on the first day, did not come out. Lin Xiaozhi was also a little disappointed, but compared to the general frustration in the company, he was generally satisfied after watching the master disc a few times before the release, not to mention that the data of the three days of the most popular box office in the week of Friday, Saturday, and weekend have not yet come out, and he can calm down.

The day after the release of "I'm Crazy for Qing", "SWAT Slaying the Dragon" landed in Debao Cinemas, relying on the wealthy Debao publicity, the appeal of the eighth master and several leading actors, although it is not as popular as "Chicken and Duck", but its first-day results are probably higher than "I am Crazy for Qing". Lin Xiaozhi arranged for the people who were responsible for distributing prizes in various theaters to inquire about the news by the way, and constantly passed on the news from the counter ticket office to him, and as of the evacuation of Xinya's staff, according to rough estimates, at least 20,000 or 30,000 movie tickets were sold on the first day of "SWAT Dragon Slayer".

Now that the movie has been released, how can Lin Xiaozhi sleep peacefully. On the 29th, he got up early in the morning as usual, hurriedly washed up, went downstairs, and rushed to the company after breakfast.

“…… Hey, big brother, why are the two of us eating today! ”

After a few words of advice to Fu Bo and ordered a breakfast, Lin Xiaozhi just walked into the restaurant and found that there was only the eldest brother Lin Xiaoyi sitting at the dining table.

Today is Saturday, and it's not surprising that he can't see his sister-in-law, his mother and the third child at the table, but he hasn't seen the old man and father who have gotten up early like him recently, so he can't help but be surprised.

The eldest brother Lin Xiaoyi frowned when he heard this, but he also stopped the knife and fork in his hand, picked up the napkin placed next to him, wiped his mouth, and took a sip of milk. Compared with the handsome and talented brother, he, the second child of the Lin family, really has nothing to compare with him except for his height.

"Grandpa and Dad are resting, there are too many things these days, and they are about to burn out when they are busy!"

He glanced at Lin Xiaozhi, and his eyes seemed to be a little evasive.

Lin Xiaozhi didn't think much about it, pulled out the bench and sat down opposite him, and asked curiously, "Have you been busy lately?" Or is something wrong with the banks again? ”

At the end, as if he remembered something, he said again: "The premiere of "Maoshan" is scheduled for tonight, and I have already given you the movie ticket the day before yesterday, will you go to the premiere of the movie in the evening?" ”

Because of the particularity of the subject matter, "I'm Crazy for Qing" did not have any premiere ceremony. And "Maoshan" is different, Zheng Zeshi prepared the premiere and invited a large number of friends in the circle to cheer, for which he also specially paid for a movie theater under the name of Princess Jin.

“…… It's not a big deal...... I use it well, you eat slowly, you also know the current situation of the bank, I'm sorry Azhi, we may not be able to support you, the bank still has a bunch of things to deal with, I'll go first! He replied ambiguously, and hurriedly picked up the coat he put next to him, and didn't care that he was only halfway through breakfast, so he left in a hurry, so that Lin Xiaozhi sat there for a while and didn't figure out his head, and he didn't know what was wrong with him.

"Young Master Sun, your breakfast!"

Fauber quickly prepared breakfast for him and brought it to him with a Filipino maid.

Lin Xiaozhi smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, Grandpa Fu!" ”

Taking the cup of freshly squeezed tomato juice, Lin Xiaozhi took a sip, the sour taste made his head clear, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the attitude of his eldest brother Lin Xiaoyi was a little strange. Then he sat down beside him, and watched him eat breakfast with a smile as usual. Thinking of Fu Bo's status in the family, Lin Xiaozhi's heart moved, and he asked, "Grandpa Fu, has something happened to the family recently?" ”

Fu Bo was obviously stunned, his mouth opened slightly, and his eyes even subconsciously looked at the door of the restaurant on the back side, and after finding that there was no one, it was difficult to hide it. Facing Lin Xiaozhi's inquiring eyes, he wanted to find an excuse to send him over, but he randomly thought of Young Master Sun's recent performance, and weighed it in his heart for a while before nodding slowly.

"Young Master Sun, it stands to reason that they didn't tell you about this, so I shouldn't talk too much. But since you asked, I'm afraid you will know about this sooner or later, that's it, if the master blames, blame me! ”

He sighed, "Young Master Sun, you've read a lot of newspapers recently, do you remember the name Li Fuzhao?" ”

Lin Xiaozhi thought about it when he heard this, he really felt a little familiar with this name. lowered his head and thought about it carefully, and suddenly raised his head with wide eyes: "Li Fuzhao, vice chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange?" Grandpa Fu, what are you mentioning him for? ”

No wonder he feels that this name is familiar, you must know that Lu Dao is not an ordinary person, he was born in the family of Li Peicai, the first banking family in Hong Kong in the early years, and is the first vice chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Lin Xiaozhi, a financial publication, rarely reads it, and can remember him because in the August 7 stock market crash last year, Li Fuzhao mistakenly announced the suspension of Hong Kong's market for a few days, which caused investors to be uneasy about Hong Kong stocks, which directly caused hundreds of billions of assets to be evaporated. At the beginning of this year, he was taken away by the Independent Commission Against Corruption, and has not yet been released, and it is said that the Hong Kong government is now investigating him, and some people have reported that his hands are not clean.

Fauber nodded affirmatively, and made it clear to him that it was indeed this person. He let out a long sigh, "Young Master Sun, you didn't pay much attention to the Kowloon Bank before, and I don't know that Master Lu Dao has been seeking the listing of the bank." The old man and the young master have been in contact with Li Fuzhao in the past few years. A few days ago, the Independent Commission Against Corruption invited the master to drink coffee, and after coming back, the old man has been depressed, the day before yesterday I listened to the old man and the young master to discuss with them, it seems that the Independent Commission Against Corruption began to suspect that the old man and the young master had been involved in bribery. Bribing the senior management of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange ......"

Lin Xiaozhi's eyes widened, and it was impossible for him not to know what the four words of the Independent Commission Against Corruption meant. If they really find out something, according to Hong Kong law, the payment is still a trivial matter, I am afraid that the old man or even the father may be invited in and out of the customs for a period of time, as short as ten days and half a month, and even three or five months.

It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight, and for the Lin family, who had just been hit hard by the Eighty-Seven Stock Disaster, they really couldn't withstand this toss.
