768 [Fighting Spring again]
Kang Jianfei had two movies before, and they were directly planned to premiere on the same day around the world.
It is said that it is the world, but in fact it is East Asia and Southeast Asia. Because Kang Jianfei's movies are sought after in these places, local theaters are happy to create a gimmick of premiering on the same day in order to attract audiences from their respective regions.
However, as Hong Kong films become stronger and more competitive, even with Kang Jianfei's current fame, it is difficult for new films to be released in Asian countries on the same day.
DreamWorks' cooperative theater company in Taiwan is China Film Company, and Taiwan's four major "state-owned" theater chains, including China Film, have left all the best schedules for American blockbusters due to pressure from the Lee government.
When DreamWorks collaborated with scholars and Long Xiang in the past, the new films were always released in the New Year and summer seasons, but now they can only squeeze out the gaps left by Hollywood films.
Who told Kang Jianfei to be a famous pro-communist?
Li Zi had just come to power and was not stable, so she didn't want to cause trouble to lift the ban on Kang Jianfei. Now that they have the power, they have not directly ordered the ban on Yingmeng Factory's films.
In the past ten years, Kang Jianfei has invested and built nine cinemas in Taiwan, and now it has all been affiliated with China and British theaters through franchise. China Film Company's attitude of helping American blockbusters has made Kang Jianfei more and more disgusted. He is already considering whether to establish his own theater chain in Taiwan based on the original nine cinemas.
The reason why I have not implemented my ideas for a long time is mainly because Taiwan is too complicated. The existing theater chains in Taiwan have already defined the territory of the Taiwan film market. Behind each theater chain is black and white. Kang Jianfei wants to set up a theater chain in Taiwan, it is tantamount to snatching food from a tiger's mouth. After the theater chain company is established, there will definitely be accidents every few days. Either it is a gangster or relevant departments will check taxes and hygiene. An excuse for insufficient fire protection measures can make your theater close and rectify for half a month.
Because of this, Kang Jianfei's nine Taiwanese cinemas were hiding under China Film Company, and only with the background of the Taiwan authorities could he be spared from trouble.
After the release of "Trumen's World" in Hong Kong, since it did not get the Spring Festival schedule in other parts of Asia as soon as possible, Oriental Entertainment Distribution Company has been negotiating with the theater merchants, hoping to get the summer movies from all over the country. Therefore, after "Trumen's World" was released in Hong Kong, there was no news of its overseas box office, but instead in North America across the ocean. "Trumen's World" was once again logged into the spring schedule.
At this time last year, "The Tomb Raiders" showed great power in the North American market, ranking 9th in the North American annual box office list in 1990. And Jiahe participated in the investment and filming of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles".
It's another spring season. Kang Jianfei's film made a comeback and was jointly released through Oriental Film Company and Paramount. Due to the good results of last year, American theatres are no longer stingy this year, and directly gave "Trumen's World" 1,958 premiere canvas, which is only a famous director and a big producer. For example, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", which Jiahe participated in the investment last year, had a total of 2,006 canvases on the first day, and the premiere canvas of "Die Hard 2" was even more crazy 2,507 yuan.
Generally speaking, the box office of the spring movies is too high. The top ten movies in the North American annual box office list are basically from the summer and the end of the year. However, last year is an exception. Among the top ten movies in the box office list, the spring movies actually account for 3.
Can't Kang Wan have a plot? His "Fang Fang" has won the unique special award at the Cannes Film Festival: the most popular movie award.
The film begins. Truman, played by Tony Tony appears in the mirror.
In the previous few minutes, there was still a faint sound of conversation in the screening hall, but as the plot of the movie progressed, the director deliberately set the suspense that the audience had to concentrate.
The screening room became quiet. The occasional funny scenes attracted bursts of laughter. However, the audience couldn't laugh soon.
Quini is a very serious person. When the TV show Truman Show was revealed, he thought to himself: Kang's movie has big loopholes this time, how could someone be locked on the island all his life?
The movie is still being screened, and the protagonist uses a plan to paralyze everyone and disappears out of thin air under the surveillance of countless cameras. This plot suddenly releases the audience's previously suppressed emotions, and Quinny can even hear the relaxed exhalation.
"Wow!"
A sudden exclaim broke out in the screening hall. However, the huge moon in the sky suddenly flipped and disappeared, and the entire sky was torn off like a huge piece of wallpaper. The red sun rose rapidly from the sea level.
"So that's it! Not only the island, but also the sea and the sky outside, are all the studios of this show. Those were not plot loopholes before!" Quinny suddenly realized, and at the same time understood why this movie was classified as science fiction.
After laughter and depression passed, "Truemon's World" finally ushered in tears, and the hero drove to the other side in the wind and waves.
"Roar out!"
"Don't give up, hold on."
"Oh, mygod!"
"Silly director, turn off the wind and waves quickly!"
“…”
The movie "Trump World" is very interesting. It is a drama in the play. Truman is the protagonist in the TV show in the movie.
At this moment, not only the audience in the cinema were watching Truman rush through the wind and waves, but the TV audience in the movie were also watching, and everyone was cheering for Truman.
The shouts from the audience on the screen further mobilized the emotions of the audience in the screening hall, so many people shouted out excitedly.
When Truman defeated the wind and waves, climbed up from the water, and sat on the boat and smiled at the camera, the eyes of the big man Quini were a little wet.
The sense of immersion is the greatest success of "Trumen's World". Many viewers unconsciously regard Trumen as their image portrayal, and their emotions change with Trumen's depression and joy.
"I love that smile so much."
"Who is this Chinese male actor? My friend is infectious when she smiles."
“…”
Quini thought to himself: I know who he is, the male protagonist of "Fangfang", but what is his name?
“Oh, no!”
While Quini was still thinking about Tony Leung’s name, a moment of silence suddenly appeared in the screening room. Then some viewers couldn’t help but scream: The male protagonist who was trying to rush out of the bondage and headed to the other side had hit a wall at the last moment!
Fortunately, this wall was only a short time, and a happy ending came in a moment. But in this short period of time, the huge emotional changes from sad to joy, from joy to sorrow, and finally turned to joy made some emotional audiences lose control of their emotions and actually covered their mouths and laughed and shed tears.
Quini slowly exhaled the turbid air in his chest. He had a lot of feelings about this movie. Like the superficial profession of the male protagonist in the movie, he was an insurance salesman. Boss, friends, and wife... He felt that all the characters in the movie had deep metaphors in reality. The more carefully he thought about it, the more he felt that the movie was full of reminiscence. (To be continued...)
