298 [Shocking Xiangjiang]

Before TVB's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" started broadcasting, several newspapers have already started to report various gossips.

Especially Ming Pao Weekly, in the appearance of "I will reveal a secret to you", published a new version of Huang Rong's stills from "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Compared with the Huang Rong of He Chaoqiong's version of Huang Rong of Weng Meiling in Kang Jianfei's memory, the two have little difference in appearance, but He Chaoqiong is a bit more beautiful than Weng Meiling.

Of course, the key to the classic version of Huang Rong in Weng Meiling's version is not her appearance, but her movements, expressions, and behaviors all exudes a lively and agile, which is very consistent with the image of Huang Rong in Jin Yong's original work.

Although I don’t know how He Chaoqiong plays Huang Rong, the report from Ming Pao Weekly has attracted many readers.

Just as Kang Jianfei guessed, TVB shamelessly used the gimmick of "The Daughter of the Gambling King" to promote it this time.

Although King He is not able to cover up the sky in Macau, he still controls most of Macau's gambling business and is also famous in Hong Kong.

As soon as the news that the gambling king's daughter appeared in a new TVB drama came out, it instantly caused media reports.

The gambling king's daughter plays Huang Rong, and the energy generated by the role of Huang Rong is completely beyond Kang Jianfei's imagination. The actors these days are still actors, and most of the rich look down on stars in the entertainment industry, let alone allow their daughter to be an actor.

Kang Jianfei was stunned when he looked at the overwhelming news about He Chaoqiong and the Gambling King, and at the same time he felt something was wrong.

The premiere of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was soon ushered in. The ratings of the first episode reached 37 points, and the ratings of the second episode almost exceeded 40.

TVB also spent a lot of money this time. When filming the Mongolian grassland scene, he even moved the crew to the Fanling Golf Course and rented dozens or hundreds of horses to shoot the "magnificent" war scenes.

Kang Jianfei also turned on the TV and watched it. Huang Rong played by He Chaoqiong was less spiritual than Weng Meiling's version, but she had a little more gentleness and nobility. It is difficult to judge who is stronger and who is weaker.

The ratings of "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" dropped rapidly, and it finally stopped until around 50 o'clock, barely surpassing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

In the next half month, the ratings of the two TV series were very close. If "Senior Sister Tuo Gun" was not paid attention to, it would be surpassed by "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

TVB's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will not be mentioned yet. Mecca's "Best Partner 2" has also been released on Princess Jin for several days.

Due to the long-term impact of urban "blockbusters" such as "The Royal Sister" and "The True Heroes", "Best Partner 2" has greatly reduced its appeal to Hong Kong audiences.

Among the first few episodes of the "Best Partner" series, the second one was the worst filmed, and the scenes and plots were all out of standard.

But after all, the influence of the first part is there. Although the level of "Best Partner 2" has declined, the box office is slightly better than Cheng Long's "Plan A". It should be no problem for Hong Kong's box office to exceed 20 million.

On the side of Jiahe Theater, Hong Jinbao's "Fat Dragon Crossing the River" has fallen out, with a box office of only a pitiful 4 million yuan. However, Xiang Huaqiang's follow-up work "Heroes are Fearless" was released online. This bad movie driven by Wang Jing is joined by Zhou Runfa, Chen Huimin and Zhang Guorong, and with the still-defeated "Heroes' True Colors", the premiere box office quickly exceeded 5 million yuan, and went straight to the 10 million box office mark.

DreamWorks' "The Little Scary" and "Happy Ghost 3 Happy Ghosts" have been painted in Taiwan one after another. "The Little Scary" has a box office of only more than NT$11 million, but "Happy Ghost 3" has a box office hit and won more than NT$27 million in the summer season.

The film "Red Fen Corps" originally starred by Lin Qingxia and finally changed to starring Li Saifeng has been completed. It will be released only after the film is completed later. Yang Dengkui's first drama in the film industry will be sold out. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be sold out. This guy will also transform from a gang leader into a film and television tycoon.

…………

…………

As September begins, the summer movie viewing craze has gradually cooled down. After nearly two months of screening, "The True Heroes" finally won 31.85 million yuan in Hong Kong.

This is the first movie in Hong Kong to have a box office of over 30 million yuan. Although it is nearly 3 million yuan less than the original time and space, considering the difference in ticket prices, Kang Jianfei's version actually has more viewers.

When "The True Color of Heroes" was painted, Oriental Dream Factory held a grand celebration ceremony, and even held a press conference on the film's painting.

No one thinks Kang Jianfei is making a big deal. The box office of 30 million is simply an insurmountable gap for other film companies and directors. It is an astronomical figure that is difficult to reach.

"Oriental Daily" commented: "Kang Jianfei's "Happy Ghost" broke the box office mark of 10 million, his "Mr. Zombie" broke the box office mark of 20 million, and now "Hero's True" has broken the box office mark of 30 million. The previous box office records were a million-dollar growth, but Kang Jianfei pushed the box office of Hong Kong films to a new height at a speed of tens of millions. The box office record of "Hero's True" may not be able to break it in a short time, including Kang Jianfei himself. The author is very much looking forward to the movie where Kang Jianfei can break the box office mark of 40 million..."

Major newspapers are paying attention to the news that "Hero's True Color" has exceeded 30 million box office. At this moment, the "Business Daily" suddenly published a news titled: "The relationship between DreamWorks and Princess Jin has broken down?"

As soon as the report of the "Business Daily" was released, other media came to their senses and remembered that at the celebration ceremony of "The True Color of Heroes", none of Princess Jin's people were present.

Logically speaking, as the screening party of "The True Heroes", the Golden Princess Theater, should have celebrated a grand celebration. However, the Golden Princess Theater did not respond to this. Not only did Lei Juekun not appear at the celebration ceremony of "The True Heroes", but even a theater manager did not show up.

...

Outside the gate of Princess Jin Cinema, Li Maowen was blocked by reporters early in the morning.

The reporters rushed to ask: "Manager Li, did Princess Jin break with DreamWorks?"

Li Maowen smiled calmly and said, "It's not like breaking up, but there are indeed some contradictions."

When the reporters heard this, they became even more excited and continued to ask: "The two companies used to cooperate happily. What kind of conflicts have arisen?"

The evil man Li Maowen complained first: "Oriental DreamWorks films have always been very popular, which is what everyone knows. However, people in Oriental Company are getting older and stronger, and they are pointing fingers at the screening work of Princess Jin Cinemas, and even threatening us by severing cooperative relationships. For example, the new film "Happy Campus" of Oriental Company has already arranged a release plan based on actual conditions, but Ma Qiao, the vice president of Oriental Company, was dissatisfied and asked us to cancel the release schedule of other films at the same time and use all the canvases to release "Happy Campus". Princess Jin Cinemas was not for a company of DreamWorks, but we also had to take into account the interests of other film owners. I can only express my regret for this."

The reporter asked again: "Will DreamWorks films be released on Princess Jin in the future?"

Li Maowen smiled gently and said, "You should ask Mr. Kang Jianfei for this question. I also hope that Princess Jin can continue to cooperate with DreamWorks, but if they are still so unreasonable, I'm very sorry."

The reporter continued to ask: "If DreamWorks cancelled their cooperation with Princess Jin, which theater line will DreamWorks movies be released?"

Li Maowen sneered: "How do I know?"

At the same time, Ma Qiao was also interviewed by reporters.

The reporter asked: "Dreamworks and Princess Jin terminated their cooperation?"

Ma Qiao said angrily: "Princess Jin is too bullying! "The Royal Sister 2" only gives 6 canvases, and "Happy Campus" only gives 5 canvases. Princess Jin's filming schedule is obviously suppressing DreamWorks. In this way, even a good film like "The True Color of Heroes" may only be sold for a few million yuan at the box office."

The reporter asked: "Why did Princess Jin suppress DreamWorks?"

Ma Qiao sneered: "Why? It's not because Mr. Kang disagrees with Lei Juekun's investment in DreamWorks, he wants to take off the firewood from the bottom of the pot and force Mr. Kang to submit by cutting the canvas."

The reporter asked again: "What will DreamWorks plan to do in the future? Do you want to choose to cooperate with Jiahe Cinema?"

Maqiao coughed and said, "Dreamworks has its own plans for this. But I want to say to Princess Jin, our DreamWorks is making movies for the dream of movies, and will never bow to evil forces in the film industry. Don't think that owning a cinema chain can cover the sky with one hand. Even if Maqiao personally leads people to push the movie screening cart and walks around the streets, he still has to show the DreamWorks movies!"

Two completely different reports were published in the newspaper the next day.

One side said that DreamWorks bully the owner, and the other side said that Princess Jin was shamelessly suppressing it. Both sides said it was very well-informed, which made many readers unable to tell which is right or wrong.

However, whether it is ordinary citizens or industry insiders, most people tend to choose to believe in DreamWorks.

For ordinary citizens, their favorite movies were made by DreamWorks, but they didn’t have a deep impression of Princess Jin, and they were emotionally inclined to believe in DreamWorks.

For industry insiders, they choose to rationally analyze the rhetorics of both sides. The latter, which obviously controls the release channels, is more advantageous. Kang Jianfei will take the initiative to fall out with Lei Juekun when he gets tired of his brain. On the contrary, Lei Juekun is more likely to want to invest in DreamWorks.

It can be said that after the report came out, DreamWorks and Kang Jianfei won widespread sympathy.

Some newspapers even analyzed: "As a newly rising young rich man, Kang Jianfei had just been at odds with Sir Shao and was immediately suppressed by Boss Lei. I'm afraid he will be doomed this time. At most, he will take the initiative to give up his shares in DreamWorks in exchange for continued cooperation with Princess Jin."

This view represents the views of most people. Just when everyone thought Kang Jianfei would bow his head to Lei Juekun, DreamWorks suddenly held a press conference and announced only one news: DreamWorks cut off all cooperation with Princess Jin, and DreamWorks movies will never be released in Princess Jin theaters!
