"[New Shushan Swordsman] was a box office success, selling 14 million in Hong Kong. Although it was different from the expected 20 million box office, it was the first major production with leading technology and unique techniques, and it has epoch-making significance.
.The box office in Asia has exceeded 90 million, which is enough to prove that this film is indeed unique. We look forward to the next part bringing us more new visual and sensory enjoyment." --- (South China Morning Post)
"[New Shushan Swordsman] cannot be said to be very successful at the box office, because the box office did not reach the expected 20 million, and even 'New Art City' [Best Partner Shows Their Magical Powers], which was initially under pressure, exceeded its 500
Wan. But aside from the box office results, the shooting techniques and excellent computer special effects will give the audience a brand new choice in the future. And the endless publicity techniques, will it bring new inspiration to Hong Kong's local film and television companies?
Human beings are in
Progress, technology is progressing, and even filmmaking is progressing. I hope local producers in Hong Kong can open your eyes and stop being complacent and still immersed in the illusory title of 'Oriental Hollywood'.
If you look at American productions, you can see the huge gap between them and Hong Kong local productions, and you can also see why Hong Kong films have been working hard for many years but still can't make it out of Asia?" --- (Ming Pao) [..com]
"Hong Kong has 14 million, and Asia has 90 million. Can't we see the charm of [New Shushan Swordsman]? Don't say anything, it's only 5 million less than [The Best Partner Shows His Magical Powers]. It's a completely new genre.
A brand-new film shot for the first time. Hong Kong audiences generally have no idea about computer special effects, but they are able to use them in the first film full of Chinese fairy tale characteristics. This is a success.
A successful attempt. I dare not say whether this is because Feng Yifeng is timid or because he is Tsui Hark's newborn child. But their first collaboration created a revolutionary creation in the Hong Kong film industry, which is of decisive importance to the future of the Hong Kong film industry.
It also allows Hong Kong audiences to expand their horizons infinitely, and it will not be limited to real kung fu, because this is already an outdated performance." --- (Sing Tao Daily)
"Is it really worth spending 50 million to shoot two films and millions more for publicity? I have to say that Feng Yifeng is really rich, with so much money that he can throw it into the salty sea at will. But I
I have to say that Feng Yifeng and Tsui Hark are really lucky that so many people will watch such a thoroughly Chinese movie.
Movies brought together by Western University. Traditional Chinese fairy tales, American Hollywood filming techniques, and propaganda techniques learned from nowhere. Once again, the fusion of the three created a catalyst that made many viewers willing to buy tickets.
Cinema. But one thing I have to say is that this kind of film can never be repeated, let alone the leading technology.
and techniques, because Hong Kong audiences may not necessarily buy it again. From the one-month public release, it was gradually surpassed by "New Arts City"'s "The Best Partner Shows Its Magical Powers", it can be seen that Hong Kong audiences still like more traditional ones.
Videos. New ones are not necessarily good, and old ones are not necessarily outdated. It all depends on the needs and wants of the Hong Kong audience.
What kind of movies should we watch? Although we are looking forward to what movie Feng Yifeng will bring us next, will this Hong Kong rich man not throw away money as money again? But what I want to say is: what we want to watch is
Movies are not about technology created with a lot of money and a publicity campaign created by throwing money at it." --- (Wen Wei Po)
During the group's founding period, Feng Yifeng received good news. The Asian box office figures of "New Shushan Swordsman" were finally calculated more than a week after the film was released. In Hong Kong alone, it reached more than 14 million.
It was nine times more than in the previous life. Although it was still far from the 19 million of [The Best Partner Shows His Magical Powers], Feng Yifeng was already very satisfied.
Just as "The Best Partner Shows Their Magical Powers" begins to be promoted and released in Taiwan and Southeast Asia, the second part of "New Shushan Swordsman" has also completed all filming and is undergoing post-production intensively. Then a new round of overwhelming publicity offensive began
.The box office of the first part in Taiwan, Japan and Southeast Asia has reached more than 78 million Hong Kong dollars, and the first part alone has exceeded 90 million. All investments in the first and second parts have been fully recovered.
Feng Yifeng had long expected that the box office of "New Shushan Swordsman" could not surpass that of "The Best Partner Shows His Magical Powers", but he was very satisfied with the box office of 14 million. Feng Yifeng originally hoped to be able to do so.
It is enough to protect the capital of the upper and lower parts, but the current situation seems to increase the amount of investment and expand
In addition to the intensity of publicity, it premiered in Asia, which really brought this money-losing drama back to life. According to the box office of the first part, as long as the second part can maintain, then Feng Yifeng will definitely earn nearly 100 million Hong Kong dollars from this drama
This is an unimaginable and terrible profit for Hong Kong films today.
People like Feng Yifeng who can tell that "New Shushan Swordsman" will make a lot of money are not the only ones who know the inside story. Many Hong Kong media who have been paying attention to this film from the beginning have already started calculating after the Asian box office was announced.
. When the media calculates that the next part will be due to the audience's new shooting techniques and the special effects produced by the film.
It has cooled down a bit, and the box office of the lower part may not be as good as the upper part. However, "Tianchen Entertainment" is a comprehensive company that includes production and distribution, and most of the theaters that are released are also owned by "Tianchen Entertainment".
"Theatre", so the global box office of the first and second parts of "New Shushan Swordsman" will definitely exceed HK$150 million in the end.
What is the concept of 150 million? Only over 50 million was spent on investment. Adding in the millions spent on promotion throughout Asia, the total investment of "Tianchen Entertainment" in the film was only 60 million.
Right and left, this is already countless in Hong Kong now
The total amount of investment is prohibitive for movies. But Feng Yifeng handed over such a huge sum of money to Tsui Hark, who was not yet well-known, with just one stroke of his pen. I don’t know whether to say that these two are just newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, or that they are
Is it stupid and bold?
But there were only two people, one had the courage to give money, and the other had the courage to spend money. In the end, they brought them all the fame and fortune. Even Lei Juekun, who finally saw the Hong Kong box office statistics, just started to laugh.
A few times later, when I saw the box office estimates published by the Hong Kong media again, I was so angry that I smashed my favorite white marble paperweight in the office into pieces.
Being able to win "New Shushan Swordsman" in Hong Kong, Lei Juekun and "New Art City" are worthy of pride. Because despite losing the first move, they actually managed to win the film during the one-month release period with the high quality and high quality of the film.
, the box office was gradually recovered, and in the end it exceeded 5 million. It can be said to be a great victory. Lei Juekun is naturally happy and proud.
Because no matter in terms of total investment or publicity funds, [The Best Partner Shows His Magic Power] is still far behind [New Shushan Swordsman]. However, whether it is investment or publicity, it has lost the lead and is not unanimously favored by the outside world.
, was a box office success, which greatly boosted Lei Juekun's self-confidence. He selectively forgot that "New Shushan Swordsman" is divided into two parts. If calculated separately, it is actually no better than "The Best Partner".
Supernatural powers] More or less.
Lei Juekun has forgotten it, and the Hong Kong media cannot forget it. The box office of just one movie in Asia reached more than 90 million. The total box office of the two movies combined was 150 million. It was only an estimate, and it exceeded this figure in the end.
, not surprising at all. This data is probably impossible to achieve by [The Best Partner Shows Its Magical Powers]. Even if it can be achieved, it will be because it has to share the final profits of 'New Art City' with other theater chains and theaters in Asia.
, it will definitely not be higher than [New Shushan Swordsman].
What makes Lei Juekun most helpless is that Feng Yifeng has reached out to Europe and the United States. Although "New Shushan Swordsman" has not been released globally, it has only been screened on a small scale in some Chinatowns in Europe and the United States, or in large European and American cities where Chinese are relatively concentrated.
The final box office statistics have not been announced, but after all, it has begun to take the first step and is much ahead of 'New Art City', which is disappointing.
I don't think Feng Yifeng really took the lead step by step. In two years, he built 'Tianchen Entertainment' into a business including film production and distribution, music production, marketing and publishing, concert preparation, artist management, merchandise franchising and retail.
The benefits brought by the comprehensive film and television entertainment company have begun to gradually show that this is something that "New Art City" cannot achieve in the short term.
In addition to Lei Juekun, who is feeling depressed, Zou Wenhuai of "Jiahe" is also feeling uncomfortable. With the success of "New Shushan Swordsman" in Asia, it is an unstoppable fact for "Tianchen Entertainment" to enter the Hong Kong film industry. Although Zou Wenhuai
I thought about sitting on the sidelines and laughing at Feng Yifeng and Lei Juekun, but I missed the best opportunity. I couldn't do it when 'Tianchen Entertainment' had not gained a firm foothold.
The impact of "Shaw Brothers" has declined, but it has been replaced by the strong entry of "Tianchen Entertainment", which once again formed a three-legged situation in the Hong Kong film industry. However, "Tianchen Entertainment" is not like the old "Shaw Brothers", with sufficient
Funds, new creative ideas, and young creative teams, as well as mature distribution theaters in Hong Kong and Asia, are all the capital to compete with 'Golden Harvest' in the future.
No matter whether Hong Kong newspapers praise or criticize, Feng Yifeng doesn't care at all what Lei Juekun and Zou Wenhuai think, because his ultimate goal has been achieved. 'Tianchen Entertainment' has completely made a name for itself in Hong Kong and Asia.
This was enough, and now he was about to start a new attempt.
With the broadcast of "Legend of the Condor Heroes: Iron-Blooded Heart", Weng Meiling appeared in the ninth episode, but this pretty Huang Rong, who has been questioned since the beginning of the "Searching for the Ideal Huang Rong" activity, has already proven her ability in front of the audience. Episode
The aura of heaven and earth merges into one body, shining brightly,
Bingxue is smart, exquisite, versatile, knowledgeable, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has excellent cooking skills. All of them can be interpreted by Weng Meiling, making many viewers feel that this girl with a pair of cute little rabbit teeth is in front of them.
It was bright, and I fell in love with it immediately.
Many media outlets that were skeptical before are now without exception praising the acting skills of the newcomer Weng Meiling. Wireless's internal magazine even praised Weng Meiling to the heavens and the earth, saying that she completely surpassed the previous "Jiashi"
'
The version of Michelle, as well as the movie version of Tian Niu and Niu Niu, made Weng Meiling really arrogant in front of Feng Yifeng for a while. And Feng Yifeng's direct benefit was to pay for dozens of people from the crew to come to the hotel
Go have a good time.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes: Iron-Blooded Heart" is being broadcast, and the second part of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes: The Evil of the Past" will also undergo intense filming. Both Shao Liushu and Fang Yihua have tried to persuade Feng Yifeng, why not just
Resigning from the role of Lu Guanying is not very suitable given his current identity and status. The company has already prepared Hui Tianci as a replacement, who played the original role in the previous life.
Feng Yifeng didn't want to let go of this opportunity to cooperate with Weng Meiling. This was probably the only time the two of them collaborated on film and television works, and he really didn't want to miss it. Under Weng Meiling's coercion and Feng Yifeng's persistence, Feng Yifeng finally
However, he successfully joined the crew and began his first television performance with Weng Meiling.
