"The War on Drugs, released on New Year's Day, will definitely not disappoint you!"
Seeing that the last 50,000 movie tickets were sold out, this live broadcast ended perfectly, with a total of 150,000 tickets sold. Even Ding Hui himself did not expect the effect to be so good.
"It is indeed a good idea to cooperate with you." Johnnie To called specifically to express his gratitude and invited: "Come to Hong Kong Island if you have time during the Chinese New Year, and I will treat you to a bottle of red wine from my collection."
Ding Hui smiled and agreed that he planned to go there during the Chinese New Year this year. Not only Johnnie To, but also Liu Tianwang would come to visit. They are all connections that require long-term management.
Of course, this result also proves the influence of Galaxy Image, especially the first mainland co-production of Johnnie To's Iron Triangle. The subject matter is very sensitive, so all the bonuses are natural.
It’s not too much to spend twenty-five dollars to go to the cinema for two hours during the New Year’s Day holiday, right?
A cup of better milk tea now costs more than this!
Twenty years ago, buying a ticket to watch a movie might have been an expense worth considering for many reasons. After all, pirated copies were everywhere, so why spend money when you could easily download them?
In recent years, as crackdowns have increased, pirated copies have become increasingly difficult to find. Coupled with the heightened copyright awareness of those born in the 1990s and 2000s, more people are willing to go to movie theaters and spend money to pay for their favorite works.
This is also the main reason why the box office is getting higher and higher.
Not just the film industry, but any industry that starts in China develops barbarically, with all kinds of horse racing and staking, and we must first make the cake bigger.
"Besides, an actor's publicity ability is also an important factor in measuring commercial value. Look at why those low-traffic celebrities are so popular. Isn't it because they have fans who pay for them?"
I'll do it too!
The scene was very lively, with dozens of media competing against each other, and many so-called self-media being invited. Ding Hui also met several UP owners in the film and television area of Bilibili, and even accepted an exclusive interview with a small film.
Even though he is wearing a mainland coat, he can't stop Johnnie To's amazing rhythm. Facing a powerful actor like Sun Honglei, Ding Hui actually completes a scene that he has tried several times with a sense of novelty and irony. He is expected to win the Best Actor Award this year.
The role of Cai Tianming was so amazing. In the end, his godfather was also beaten to death, and the two apprentices turned against each other. It was a complete betrayal and separation.
The premiere ended with rave reviews!
…
Tim Ming Tsai betrayed Brother Haha, his apprentice, the Gang of Seven, the truck driver, and the police in exchange for his own life. It can be said that he took the word "ruthless" to the extreme!
Even before he died, he kept talking about other drug dealers. This scene was incredible.
Many big sisters want to sleep with their brothers!
No wonder live broadcasting is so popular now. In the past, advertising was all over the place and money was thrown at it, but in the end I still didn’t know if it was of any use?
I know half of the advertising money will definitely be useless, but the problem is I don’t know which half it is?
Good guy, now you can easily play live broadcasts with a mobile phone at basically zero cost. Once you have done it, you will become rich overnight. Who wouldn’t want to do business without capital?
Then it's like closing the door and beating the dog. The rules and regulations are manipulated as fiercely as a tiger, and they run to death. In the end, the big fish eats the small fish.
"A long and steady stream of work, work hard." Zhao Hong was very satisfied with today's results and encouraged: "Our goal is to make your live broadcast room a golden sign for promoting your works."
I told my godfather and the others that it was all gun-to-gun and there was nothing to be afraid of, but at that time I had already made up my mind to leave these seven people alone to delay their escape.
I never thought a co-production would turn out like this!
Johnnie To is still YYDS in my heart!!!
It’s really shocking!
…
Ding Hui was speechless, he is only twenty-four, why is he not a young man?
There was no peeing in the whole process, every character was great, five-star praise!
Ding Hui curled his lips, thinking very beautifully.
The plot of the enemy openly and secretly luring the snake out of the hole is cruel and realistic, the black and white group drama is simple and rough, and the duel between Sun Hong, Lei and Ding Hui is simply explosive!
…
Ding Hui brings to life a drug dealer who is greedy for life, afraid of death, selfish, cruel, and thoughtful!
"Wouldn't it be nice for us to be a traffic powerhouse?"
"Don't worry, I won't let your work go to waste!" Seeing Ding Hui meditating, Zhao Hong thought he had an idea and analyzed: "The wool comes from the sheep. As long as we build up our brand influence, won't it fall on the salary in the end?"
The promotion was over and the time soon came for the premiere. Johnnie To flew over specially to meet with Galaxy Image fans.
Fun + cool + well-paced.
…
It’s getting harder and harder!
So many sacrifices, but they are just the tip of the iceberg. This is the desolate Du style of despair!
…
Although it is rumored that Du changed the ending in order to compromise, I personally feel that this version of the ending matches Brother Hui's words perfectly, and it has no bottom line and can't resist the fateful joke.
The in-depth description of the police's handling of the case is as documentary as that of the "September 18th Incident", with various plots using both hard and soft tactics to directly challenge the bottom line of the review.
The scene where Hui Ge crashes into a car with his mute brother when escaping is particularly homeless. Although the rustic mainland temperament of the whole story slightly overwhelms Johnny Du's violent aesthetics, the rhythm and drama control are really good.
After decades of development, the film industry is gradually on the right track, not just piracy, but also fake box office, money laundering, yin and yang contracts, tax evasion...
…
The setting of each character and link is so wonderful that it makes the film amazing, and it does not add water to the weird temperament of the Milky Way impression. In short, it is a unique police film, and Sir Du always feels like he can't see the downhill road.
Detoxification from the body, undercover drug testing, burning money for sacrifice, and the brutal gunfight at the end...
Especially the godfather said that he was seventy, but in the end he still wanted to drive to save his companions. The two apprentices burned real money to pay homage to their master's wife, which was considered as a sign of love and righteousness towards their own people.
This is the best of Hong Kong-directed films from the north and a proper benchmark for mainland police and gangster films.
Every minute and every second feels very mainland, but at the core it has the familiar taste of Hong Kong films. I especially like the ending that seems to be very broadcast, but in fact it has a profound meaning.
These are not things that Ding Hui worries about, but he is indeed a person with vested interests. The increasing salary is the best proof.
The bloody and deaf-heavy "Gunfire" is full of style. It is the best one I have seen in theaters this year. It is worthy of Galaxy Image!
…
In comparison, Cai Tianming is simply awesome!
I think Sir Du particularly understands the mood of mainland actors who want to show off their acting skills but lack opportunities. In the first half, Ding Hui silently watched Team Zhang's various acting skills, probably thinking PS: You come first, I'm not in a hurry.
