Chapter 414 Fans Club


    "The top ten in this year''s box office list are either action films, comedy films, or action films + comedy films. There are no urban romance films in Hong Kong, and "The Love of Ghosts" presents the living conditions of a group of higher-income people. , it’s really rare, and the performance of “Crazy Man and Hatred Woman” is also very good.”


    "The most outstanding one is undoubtedly Xiao Fangfang, who brings a kind-hearted but narrow-minded character to life. Her acting skills are all revealed in her movements, every change in her eyes and expressions. She is the adjuster of the whole film, cleverly integrating comedy. Among the tragedies, it is both enjoyable for the audience and raises the level of the entire film.”


    "An excellent film, sincere and spiritual, with soft and rich qualities. The estranged love between the male and female protagonists will move everyone. Its appearance can be said to be a major event in the Hong Kong film industry, making people addicted to fighting and The audience found the low-level comedy refreshing. ”


    Released on Christmas Eve.


    The next day was Christmas, and there were two consecutive days off on 25-26. The attendance rate did not decrease but increased, and it quickly ushered in an explosive period.


    According to past practice, new films were only screened in the evening, but during the holidays, there were also three additional screenings during the day.


    There are a total of nearly a hundred performances in 16 theaters every day. Depending on the size of the theater, the number of people per performance ranges from a few hundred to more than a thousand.


    Chen Qi simply counted handkerchiefs to promote it, and posted: "On the first day of the screening, more than 20,000 handkerchiefs were distributed, and there are still a large number of viewers who have not received them, but we can no longer buy cheap and easy-to-use handkerchiefs. The event is over Until then, please bring your own handkerchiefs!”


    As film critics said, the current genre of Hong Kong films is too monotonous. Apart from martial arts, it is also funny. The appearance of "The Last Love" really surprised many people, especially female viewers.


    Use the thinking of future generations to understand: It means maxing out on Weibo, Moments, Douyin, and Xiaohongshu!


    Young girls watched movies together in twos and threes, office workers dragged their boyfriends, and even housewives dragged their husbands, either because they really wanted to watch or to follow the trend, and they all crowded into the cinema.


    Unlike previous leftist films, this time many cultural celebrities have also joined in.


    Yi Shu: "Hong Dou has **** curly hair, a shirt, jeans, and a cool belt. Hong Kong movies finally understand the beauty of women. I like her bright red nail polish, and I like her taking off her shoes and dancing like a **** woman!"


    Lin Yanni: "Female characters in Hong Kong films have no status. The heroine is a vase, the supporting actress is a tool, and the female extras are not even tools. At most, they are toys to be ravaged. Hong Kong films have no respect for women, but Hongdou is everywhere. In terms of equality with male characters.


    By the way, Zhong Chuhong is really beautiful! "


    Huang Zhan: "When you don''t smile, you are a beauty. When you smile, you become thirteen. But which woman is as beautiful as her in red? The leftists have the foresight this time and dug out a piece of gold."


    Ni Kuang: "I like the shot of her standing in the wind. Her every move and every smile is truly beautiful."


    Well, forget it Ni Kuang...


    Why are these people speaking out?


    Because some parts of "The Love of Ghosts" show the culture of the elite class. Do you expect to see bartending or twist dancing in a Kung Fu movie of the Republic of China?


    There are not only comedies and tragedies, but also some literary and artistic dialogues directed by Chen Qi, such as the part about three kinds of death... These make the whole film good-looking, meaningful and unconventional.


    Simply put, it scratched the itch of this group.


    Especially old men. Old men in the Hong Kong cultural circle love Zhong Chuhong very much. Ni Kuang went to the cinema just to see her.


    …


    As of the 26th, the Christmas holiday is over.


    "The Ghost Story" was released for three days, with an exaggerated average daily box office record of 1.6 million. It dropped a bomb on the Hong Kong film industry at the end of 1982, causing many people to suddenly realize:


    oh!


    It turns out that there is a market for tragic dramas; it turns out that audiences not only like to watch fights and killings, but also enjoy pure romance; it turns out that female audiences have great spending power...


    At this point, there is nothing more to say about the reputation and quality of "The Last Days". Everyone has only one guess about it, which is whether it can surpass "The Best" and win the annual crown.


    If they can get it, the leftists will occupy four of the top five seats!


    Not to mention restoring glory, it is even more glorious than the most glorious time before!


    "cheers!"


    "cheers!"


    At night, in a hotel, the main members gathered here for a celebration banquet. Zhong Chuhong wore denim clothes again in private. She did not apply makeup, but her red aura was nourishing. Her energy level was at least improved by one level. She opened her big mouth and smiled. Then she picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.


    Liu Dehua''s traffic is worse, but he has won the love of many little girls, his popularity has also increased, and he is also very popular.


    It''s a pity that Liang Jiahui and Xiao Fangfang are not here. In terms of acting skills alone, these two are the guarantee for "The Love of Ghosts".


    Tsui Hark is also very happy. He has filmed three dramas for Zuo Zuo: Orphans, Human Ghosts, and Tai Chi 3. They are all in different styles and are a hundred times better than those in New Art City. Next, he will make "Shanghai Nights", which he also likes. type.


    Shi Nansheng drank heavily, and no one was his opponent. After drinking another glass of wine, he emptied the glass and asked: "Archie, is it possible for this film to be distributed in the mainland?"


    "No way!"


    "Isn''t it okay to be so popular?"


    "First, it has a ghost! Second, it has a ghost! Third, there is still a ghost! We don''t engage in feudal superstition. If we want ghosts to appear openly, we must either adapt them from classics, have schizophrenia or pretend to be people."


    "That''s such a pity. It will definitely be popular in the mainland as well." Zhong Chuhong said.


    "It''s no pity. Even if it is released, we won''t be able to make any money. China Film and the film company have a monopoly over there." Chen Qidao.


    "Is there any sales overseas?"


    "We should. We''ll talk about this later. There''s no rush."


    As he spoke, Chen Qi stood up, knocked on his cup, and said: "The Love of Ghosts is a huge hit when it opens. We have only one goal, to kill The Best Partner! If we can''t kill it, I''ll have to buy the box office myself." Get rid of it.”


    "Hey! You have some ambition!"


    "What kind of box office did you buy? It''s so embarrassing!"


    "Master, even I will look down on you!" Qiu Shuzhen said while drinking juice.


    "Just kidding!"


    His words were met with boos, and he continued: "Okay, let me tell you two things now. Don''t think that the promotion is over. Tomorrow you will go to campus for 3-5 days of activities. Then go to a company to experience [One-day Staff 】Activity…


    Students and white-collar workers are our largest audience. We must firmly grasp it in order to take the box office to a higher level, and the staff will film your entire process and edit it into a video. "


    "What do you want to record?" Liu Dehua was curious.


    "Hey, this is the second thing!"


    Chen Qi looked at the two of them and smiled: "Uncle Fu and I have agreed that Yindu and Dongfang will jointly establish a [Fans Club] and provide you with full-time operating personnel.


    What fans need to do includes airport pick-up and drop-off, support for events, support for premieres, movie theater reservations, buying albums when future films are released, etc.


    What you have to do includes sending signed photos, posters, meet-and-greets, celebrating birthdays for special fans, having dinner parties, calling for donations for terminally ill patients, etc.


    In short, it is to break down barriers, build a new space system, optimize the relationship between the two parties, conduct new empowerment upgrades, and form a set of valuable ecological closed loops... What, don''t you understand?


    To put it simply, create a warm and harmonious environment. You are not celebrities or fans, you are all family members! "


    Chen Qi talked nonsense about major Internet companies, and finally said: "We don''t have many films now. When we make a few more films, I will introduce some from overseas and make them into video tapes. This club is our foundation!"
