572 [Pull the wind to the end]
Six films competed for the 1986 Hong Kong summer file, and the first to hit the street was "Crossing the Port" produced by Yindu Organization, which was released for a whole week before it got a pitiful box office of 2.27 million, and a total box office of 3.28 million when the film was released half a month later.
followed by Zhang Aijia's directorial debut "Favorite", this film produced by Xinyicheng starring Lin Zishen, Zhang Aijia and Miao Qianren, the box office in the first week was 4.38 million, the box office in the second week was only 2.74 million, and the third week was only released for two days because the attendance rate was too low and the total box office was 7.36 million.
In addition, the Hollywood blockbuster "Top Gun" starring Tom and Sister Kelly won more than $170 million at the box office in North America and $350 million worldwide. Because its box office performance is so good, "Top Gun" was bought by Anle Cinemas for release in Hong Kong just after the next film in North America, and Jiang Zhiwen has great expectations for it.
It's a pity that this year's North American annual box office champion blockbuster is very unpopular with Hong Kong audiences, and it took three weeks to get a box office of 4.85 million, only a few hundred thousand more than the first week of "The Favorite".
In the 80s, it was difficult for Hong Kong movies to break into Hollywood, but in the same way, Hollywood blockbusters don't want to come to Hong Kong to make money.
A real decent box office battle is between "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", "Courtship Ragtag" and "Ghost Lucky Star".
The three movies fought fiercely for more than half a month, and "Courtship Miscellaneous Army" produced by Zeng Zhiwei's good friend film company was the first to go out, with a box office of 16.63 million in Hong Kong. After the release of "Courtship Miscellaneous Army", Xinbao Cinema took over "Royal Special Police" produced by Debao. starring Michelle Yang, Hiroyuki Sanada, Luo Flo and Wang Minde, basically took the route of "Royal Senior Sister".
The release of "Royal Police" brought a bit of a shock to "Ghost Lucky Star", which plummeted in attendance three weeks after its release. barely survived the fourth week and won a box office of 24.92 million.
Only DreamWorks' "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" has been soaring all the way and has not been affected by other films in the slightest. After Kang Jianfei's adaptation, this movie is more in line with the viewing habits of Asians, and Kang Jianfei and Zhong Chuhong's cool and handsome pretending to be handsome and a little warm and humorous from time to time, coupled with the hot action shootout scenes, Hong Kong audiences can't stop.
has been released for more than a month, and the "Royal Special Police" that came out halfway has already been released, and only earned more than 15 million box office. The attendance of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is still very strong.
Originally, it was scheduled to be released in August "Gambling Saint 2", which was produced by Wang Jing and directed by Li Lizhi, starring Zhou Xingchi, Zhang Guorong, Wen Bixuan and Ye Zimei. But due to the continued popularity of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith". The schedule of "Gambling Saint 2" had to be postponed indefinitely.
From mid-July to early September, "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" was released in Oriental theaters for 56 days, with a final box office of 38.43 million.
This is another summer movie carnival, and Zhong Chuhong's sexiness is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after the film is released. Some media have begun to call her a "sexy goddess", "Marilyn of the East? Monroe".
And Kang Jianfei pretended to be handsome in the film. actually has a large number of female fans, and these female fans also wrote to DreamWorks, hoping that Kang Jianfei's next movie can continue to direct and act.
Although some newspapers such as "Sing Tao Daily" have picked on it, most of the media have praised the film.
"There is no doubt about the quality of director Kang Jianfei's works, and what everyone wants to know most now is not whether Kang Jianfei's movies can be blockbusters, but when his films will break through the 40 million box office mark." βOriental Daily.
"The two of them are holding heavy weapons and bombarding each other in their living room, this kind of action scene makes the audience stunned and can't help laughing, Kang Jianfei's movies are always unexpected." - "Daily Express".
"The whole story is absurd, bizarre and humorous. Many of the lines in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" are full of deep dialogue, and it is a rare action movie with brains. βMing Pao.
"Mr. and Mrs. Smith" swept this summer. Kang Jianfei once again proved his status as a commercial director with the box office. ββ"Heung Kong Business Daily"

The sun is pouring down and the pool is sparkling.
Kang Jianfei was lying under the sun umbrella by the pool with sunglasses, drinking juice while talking to Big Brother: "What did Liang Jiahui do over there?" You asked him to push off all the film appointments in the second half of the year, and if you can't push it off, you will adjust the schedule for me...... Yes, it may be turned on in half a month, and the Doyle you contacted hasn't been done yet? There are also actors, I have sent the script to Oriental Entertainment Company for a month, how did I confirm 4 actors? You tell Chen Bingkun to hold on a little bit......"
Hung up the phone and threw it aside, Kang Jianfei stretched out happily, there are only a few days left for such a leisurely day, and he will start making new films in more than half a month.
In the new film "Fang Fang", Kang Jianfei is ready to let Liang Jiahui be the leading actor, although there are many female fans who let him continue to direct and act, but Kang Jianfei knows how many pounds and taels his acting skills have. It's okay to play the actor in a cool action scene, but it's a little difficult to deal with it when he plays a deep art film, and now his actor Leung Ka-fai is the most suitable for this role.
As for the director of photography of the film, Huang Yuetai served as the director, and in addition, he also wanted to bring Christopher Doyle in as the leader of the second photography team. Christopher Doyle, the future Asia's No. 1 photographer, had been in Hong Kong for several years at this time, and it wasn't until a few months ago that his cinematographer's "Lady Enough" was nominated for Best Cinematography at the Academy Awards, but the trophy was eventually won by DreamWorks.
Kang Jianfei wants to play literature and art this time, and Christopher Doyle's photography style is extremely suitable, if it weren't for the face of the old man in the company, and he is not sure whether the young Christopher Du is competent, Kang Jianfei wants to directly let Christopher Doyle be the director of photography of "Fangfang".
"Whoa!"
The water splashed in the pool, and Ye Zimei, who was wearing a three-point swimsuit, swam to the shore, shook her long wet hair and climbed ashore.
The 36-inch bust is in striking contrast with the 21-inch thin waist, Ye Zimei swayed her waist and hips when she walked, and the thin waist seemed to be broken at any time. The breasts seemed to jump out of the corset, and the man felt the urge to rush over and hold on to it.
Ye Zimei walked in front of Kang Jianfei with a twist and swing, and the little bird sat on Kang Jianfei's leg and said coquettishly: "Brother Fei, people can finally accompany you for a day, why do you always talk about business?" β
Kang Jianfei hugged Ye Zimei into his arms, and the crisp milk turned into two huge meatloaf on his chest, kissed Ye Zimei's face and smiled: "Brother Fei is busy making money, otherwise where will the money come from to support you?" β
"People don't follow you for your money, as long as I can be with you every day, even if I go to the street to ask for food, I am willing." Ye Zi was tired of being in Kang Jianfei's arms, and kissed the man's chin and cheek with his small mouth.
After getting used to the life of a canary, the once innocent and self-loving little girl has completely fallen into the trap woven by money and vanity. Ye Zimei doesn't care how many women Kang Jianfei has, she just hopes to have enough money to spend, for fear that one day Kang Jianfei will get tired of playing and get rid of her, so she serves with all her heart and soul every time.
"You're the goblin who can talk the most." Kang Jianfei pinched Ye Zimei's face and smiled, although he knew that this woman was telling nonsense to please him, Kang Jianfei always liked to listen to lies as the truth.
Ye Zimei's little hand grabbed Kang Jianfei's handle all the way down, and then teased mischievously, and said in a worshipful tone: "Brother Fei, you are really amazing, the film you made is the box office champion of this year's summer file, and the money earned from one movie can buy many sea-view villas." β
Kang Jianfei enjoyed the service of Ye Zimei's little hands, and asked with a smile: "What, it's not enough to give you two houses, you want to change to a sea view room?" β
"Brother Fei, why do you say that, people are not the kind of women who only have money in their eyes," Ye Zimei was afraid of stiffening the atmosphere, so she quickly changed the topic, "The box office of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is more than 38 million, why don't you continue to release it and drag it to 40 million box office before it falls?" β
Kang Jianfei patted Ye Zimei's fragrant shoulder, Ye Zimei slid down from him knowingly, and buried her head in Kang Jianfei's waist and swallowed.
Kang Jianfei stroked the top of Ye Zimei's head and said with emotion: "Hong Kong's population has never exceeded 6 million, and if you want to sell 40 million movie box office, you can only wait for the ticket price to rise." β
Ye Zimei didn't speak again, all her energy was spent on her small mouth, working hard for her better life in the future.
"The Saint of Gamblers 2" was released after the release of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", but at this time, the summer season was basically over, and the box office results did not meet expectations.
However, it was the first record released by the band Beyond, which caused a small sensation after it came out on the market. Although "Cold Rainy Night" has only sold more than 43,000 copies, and has not yet reached the platinum level, some music critics have given it a very high praise.
In particular, Teddy Robin, the first member of the Hong Kong band, publicly said that he liked Beyond's songs very much, saying that they injected new vitality into the backwater Hong Kong rock.
Qiu Yueqing and Zhou Hailin's comic adaptation of the comic book "Pink Girl" has officially started filming, and Golden Harvest has just added two generals: Billy Zhou, the first world Chinese boxing champion, joined Weihe Company and became Golden Harvest's contracted artist and Cheng Long's personal bodyguard; In addition, the world female karate champion (co-ed competition) Luo Flo also signed a contract to become a female artist under Golden Harvest.
Kang Jianfei doesn't look down on these two world champions, but DreamWorks doesn't focus on kung fu movies now, so it is not very attractive to Billy Zhou and Lo Flo.
Seeing that "Fangfang" was about to start, Kang Jianfei suddenly received a message: Li Lizhen was slapped twice when she was filming for other companies, and the other party also threatened to ban Li Lizhen and bring down DreamWorks.
Kang Jianfei's first reaction after hearing the news was: Where did the joke come from? (To be continued......)
