Since 1983
Chapter 929 Kung Fu
SARS hit in the first half of 2003, and the movie market slowly recovered in the second half of the year.
Despite the setbacks, the overall momentum is still optimistic because the number of films has increased. In the box office rankings in the 1990s, it would be good to have ten rankings every year, almost all supported by imported films and Xu Fei.
Now it can be ranked in the top 50, and the box office statistics are relatively clear. There are tens of millions, ten to twenty million, and several million...
Currently ranked first, Harry Potter: The Vanishing Chamber of Secrets, 59 million. The Matrix 2 and 3 ranked second and third respectively, and Heroes of Heaven and Earth ranked fourth.
They are all well-known Hollywood blockbusters, such as Finding Nemo, Terminator 3, Lord of the Rings 2 and Pirates of the Caribbean.
The highest Hong Kong film is Dragon Rebirth, with 28 million, ranking tenth. Followed by A Mouse in Love with a Cat, ranked twelfth.
There were more screens during this period than in history, and the box office grew slightly. But the well-reputed Infernal Affairs 2 was released, with only 10 million box office.
This also reflects the trend that Hong Kong movies are becoming less and less popular.
In the blink of an eye, it's December, the Lunar New Year holiday.
In the past, there was only one film, occasionally two, and this year three films competed. The heat has been hyped enough beforehand, and the bosses will release Infernal Affairs 3 first.
Given a ten-day golden schedule, the results were quite satisfactory, and the box office received 44 million in advance.
Then there is Mobile Phone, which also received 63 million in advance at the box office in the same ten days - 53 million in history.
The last is Kung Fu.
…………
Zhou Xingchi has always been an actor with a lot of ideas, and he is good at embodying these ideas in his films. Shaolin Soccer is still a little immature, but Kung Fu I think is very mature.
Definitely going to be a landmark work for him.
At the press conference before the premiere, Xu Fei sat in person. Since his appearance at the awards ceremony, he is no longer as low-key as before, and he will attend when he should.
Across the table, he and Zhou Xingxing were in the middle, and the leading actors sat on the left and right.
The next person is Miss Huang, who plays the dumb girl in the play. 20 years old, pure and lovely, looking at Dad Xu with frighteningly bright eyes.
Even if she wasn't at the peak when she debuted, she was still making a leap forward, but after more than ten years, she could only become a hot search based on Hai Wa.
The popularity of passers-by is a little bit corrupt, especially after finding such a husband, ouch, a match made in heaven.
When it comes to knife-insertion teaching, it is the husband who was holding the surveillance video at the time. He refused to release it, and said: Yin Xiaotian, you have been surrounded by the masses. I advise you to let go of your luck and apologize to Xiaoxiao and the crew!
It's amazing how cheap it is.
Besides, Zhou Xingxing, already 41 years old, wears a hat and presses down his half-length hair, and communicates with reporters in difficult Mandarin.
Box office? Didn't Mr. Xu say it before, guarantee, guarantee one and compete for two.
I dare not think beyond Hero.
But we have confidence, I have confidence in the film and I have confidence in Mr Xu.
The reporter asked for a while, then turned to Mr. Xu.
You said that Mr. Zhou Xingchi is an excellent director, will you continue to cooperate in the future?
He is a talent + accumulation type, with rare imagination and creativity. If the script is good, of course I want to continue to cooperate.
Will you sign a contract with a company like Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang?
It depends on the wishes of both parties, it doesn't matter.
Zhou Xingxing's director level is very strong, but he is getting older and older. Some people can still lead the trend when they are old, and some people can't keep up with the times.
Kung Fu is his peak, and Yangtze River No. 7 is actually not bad, but a little bland.
The stalk of Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons is old, but the imagination is still top-notch. Unfortunately, it is anticlimactic and the reception is not good.
The Mermaid is really embarrassing, relying on the feelings of the audience, it sold more than 3 billion yuan.
After the press conference was over, Zhou Xingxing took the initiative to find him and asked about Earth Cannon.
He is not good at talking, and stumbled: Mr. Xu's film is a sensation in the Chinese entertainment circle, everyone is here, if there is a chance, uh...
OK, I'll ask you for help if I need it.
Xu Fei saw that he was struggling to speak and was straightforward. Zhou Xingxing nodded, as long as he understood the meaning.
In the end, Ms. Huang also wanted to come over, but Xiao Mo stopped her and escorted the boss away.
…………
Premiere at zero o'clock that night.
China Film Times International Studios was crowded with people, all young people in pairs. Christmas is approaching again, and some festive activities have been organized, which is very lively.
A girl pulled her boyfriend and ran into the bookstore familiarly.
Has the Kung Fu puzzle arrived?
Here we are, here.
The clerk miraculously did not change, and explained to the other party according to the process: After putting together five puzzles and synthesizing a pattern of a projector, you can get the highest-level VIP card and watch movies for free for life.
Wow, this is not bad.
The boyfriend was very curious: So you spelled three?
Well, I'll show you another day.
The girl bought the jigsaw puzzle and asked, I really don't have any movies next year, do I want to postpone it?
Yes.
What a pity, I have to wait a year.
Just wait, I'll give it to you then!
The boyfriend patted his chest.
Well, good luck.
The clerk came out of nowhere.
At 11:50, the audience entered the arena, 90% of the more than 400 seats were occupied, and the front row was empty.
A World Without Thieves, October Besieged City and Heroes all rely on star-studded and cram-feeding propaganda, but Kung Fu is different. The real superstar is only Zhou Xingxing, but that's enough.
The audience does have a special feeling for him. The word-of-mouth has declined, and the work has been disappointing, and it will take more than ten years to wait.
…………
Who else?!!!
Is there still king's law? Is there still law?
Hahaha!
Feng Pants bared his rotten teeth, and appeared brightly at the beginning, instantly highlighting the highlights.
Then hung up.
The Ax Gang appeared on the stage, the pig cage walled city, chartered public and rented women, and all kinds of residents.
Kung Fu is full of the cultural characteristics of old Hong Kong films, such as chartered public and chartered women, which are called in Cantonese. But mainland audiences did not feel uncomfortable, thanks to the nationwide spread of pirated Hong Kong films.
The most prominent advantage of Kung Fu is the rhythm.
The content is extremely rich, one small turning point after another, without feeling bored. And these small turning points are coherent, and then enter the big turning point logically, which is very natural.
One cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops come to meet each other!
Zhou Xingxing threw the firecracker and it just hit Lin Xue's hat, and the ax gang came. The peaceful and beautiful life in the walled city was broken in an instant.
This is the origin of the whole plot.
Following Twelve Lu Tan Kicks, Hong Family Tie Xian Fist, and Goro Bagua Stick appeared, Dong Zhihua, who played with sticks, did not attract the attention of young people.
But if the parents were there, they might recognize the '80s star.
He made a movie Great Shanghai 1937, Xiaodao Yang Fan.
Yang Fan, everyone knows that you have nine knives!
Of course, here, there is only one bald uncle in a white coat left.
If you can't beat the ax gang, you will naturally find a powerful person to kill, and if you can't beat it, you have to find an even stronger one-the ultimate murderer, Huoyun evil god!
The Condor Heroes were seriously injured, and Zhou Xingxing, a martial arts prodigy with strange bones, opened up Ren Du's second vein.
Zhou Xingxing was beaten into the air by the Ha Toad Kungfu, he had an epiphany in the clouds, and performed a palm technique that descended from the sky...
The movie is smooth and smooth, and it is done in one go, with burdens and emotions, mixed with the stories of the hero and heroine.
And at the end there is an easter egg buried:
The hero and heroine turn into little children and go to the candy store hand in hand. Jiang Bao was flirting with girls at the door, the charterer was taking a walk, the evil god of fire cloud was directing the traffic, and there were Coolie Qiang, Bao Yazhen, and Four Eyes Boy...
You can understand it as a little boy's fantasy, or understand it as the transformation of the protagonist, to achieve everything is born from the heart, and it is also okay to see the world become beautiful.
Sublimated to heights.
The perception is satisfied.
(I didn't write about the movies without major changes. Thanks to the new cute master, I owe five chapters, ○| ̄|_
besides……)
