872 [The Sixth Sense Screening]
In the summer of 1993, Jurassic Park began to sweep across Europe and South America.
Someone once estimated that the global box office of "Jurassic Park" is likely to exceed 700 million, and many people didn't believe it at that time. But just in July, Europe gave a perfect set of data. The global box office of "Jurassic Park" was approaching the 900 million US dollar mark.
In early August, the box office of "Jurassic Park" successfully reached 900 million, and the whole world was in full swing. This was a terrifying box office record.
According to the agreement before filming, James Cameron, as the deputy director, received 80 million US dollars, and Kang Jianfei was a rare and generous this time.
It’s not that Kang Jianfei has too much money and has no place to spend it, but that Cameron contributed a lot in the filming of this movie, and 80 million US dollars was what he deserved. You should know that in another time and space, Spielberg had 250 million yuan, which was the real cruelty.
Hong Kong's South China Morning Post reported: "The great success of "Jurassic Park" has made Kang Jianfei's throne of Hong Kong's richest man more stable. In addition to the global box office of 900 million US dollars, the surrounding revenue of "Jurassic Park" is also an astronomical figure. It is reported that the first "Jurassic Park" toy production line has been put into production, and the movie theme park located in Brunei has also made a lot of gold every day. "Jurassic Park" has only sold global TV broadcast copyrights, and the sales of movie video tapes have exceeded 100 million US dollars... Mr. Kang's personal assets are likely to have exceeded 5 billion US dollars, or even more."
Even Kang Jianfei himself doesn't know his wealth and assets, but with various investments in mainland China and Japan, as well as real estate and real estate in Hong Kong, it definitely exceeds 6 billion US dollars.
Major media in Hong Kong have reported that the videotape of "Jurassic Park" has been sold again. Other film production companies have seen it. They are envious and jealous, but unfortunately, this kind of film cannot follow the trend. At most, they can only add various memes about Jurassic Park to the new film to attract audiences.
It was in this public opinion craze that Kang Jianfei's new film "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" was finally released. Film companies from Europe, America and Asia, like asking about a bloody shark, took the initiative to come to buy "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural". This was all stimulated by the box office record of "Jurassic Park".
...
The Cadillac bulletproof sedan was parked in the underground garage, and Kang Jianfei put on a sun hat and sunglasses, pulled Sakai Izumi's little man out of the car.
Sakai Izumizu seemed to think Kang Jianfei's outfit was funny, and pulled the brim of his hat and said, "Do I need to wear sunglasses too?"
Kang Jianfei shaved her nose a little and said with a smile: "Put it on, couples style."
Sure enough, Sakai Izumi was wearing a pair of sunglasses, and the two walked towards the elevator in their hands.
Since the singles and albums sold at the beginning of the year, Sakai Izumizu has become a household name in Japan. She released two singles in the first half of the year, with sales of more than 1 million.
Ai Hui Music was planning to release a new album to her, but Sakai Izumizu missed Kang Jian so hard that she flew hard. She didn't even say a word to him, so she threw down her job and quietly ran to Hong Kong.
After the elevator was lifted to the first floor, the crowded people filled the elevator all at once, and Kang Jianfei and Sakai Insumi were squeezed to the elevator wall.
"Ajian, are you watching the movies too?"
"Yes, I came with my girlfriend."
"I heard that "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" is a ghost movie. Be careful not to scare your younger brother and sister."
"Even if it's a ghost movie, Director Kang will definitely be better than others."
"Of course, Jurassic Park has a box office of 7 billion (converted to Hong Kong dollars). The box office is the world's number one, which director can do it?"
“…”
Many people in the elevator were talking. Most of the chat content was related to "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural". The big news that "Jurassic Park" had a global box office of over $900 million has really saved Kang Jianfei's new film a lot of publicity. Most of the moviegoers came for the name of the director.
This summer, major film companies are worried about the box office failure to meet their expected goals, but "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" is full of viewers. This is related to the reputation accumulated by Kang Jianfei over the years, and it is also caused by the mentality of following the trend.
Just like another time and space "Fast and Furious 7", with the gimmick hype of Paul's last works, the audience flocked to the cinema like a duck to watch. Many people in China didn't know Paul at all before, but went to join in the fun because of the herd mentality. These people were fake watching movies, and taking photos and showing off on WeChat Moments is real.
This is exactly the popularity of "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" at the beginning of its release. The new international director film was released, so you should take a sneak peek at it.
Sakai Izumizu couldn't understand Chinese and didn't know what these people were saying. After leaving the elevator, she came to the cinema. When she saw the long ticket purchase team, she exclaimed: "Hong Kong people love watching movies so much!"
Kang Jianfei pointed to the poster of "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" on the wall and said: "Because this is my new film."
Sakai Izumizu asked: "They are they all watching "The Sixth Sense"?"
"Of course." Kang Jianfei said pretentiously.
The reserved ticket in Kang Jianfei's hand was naturally the best place. He sat down with soda and popcorn, and waited until the lights in the screening room turned off before taking off his sunglasses and hat.
In the gap waiting for the movie to be screened, Sakai Izumizu took the initiative to pull Kang Jianfei to kiss. The Kitchen Girl's kissing skills improved rapidly. The flexible lilac tongue defended and counterattacked from time to time, and took the initiative to reach Kang Jianfei's mouth for him to taste.
The two of them kissed passionately, and could be heard through two or three rows of seats, and the audience around them looked at each other. Some young couples were also infected by them, and after several tentative and teasing, they all hugged each other and chewed each other.
I feel sorry for those single dogs in the theater. I actually suffer from this when watching a ghost movie!
At the beginning of the film, the couple played by Huang Qiusheng and Liu Jialing, drinking to celebrate with a certificate of awards, and then there is a half-minute intimate scene.
"Bang!"
When the gunshot was heard, the psychiatrist played by Huang Qiusheng was shot by a patient he once gave up.
The progress of the first 30 minutes of the film is slow, which means that a psychologist wants to cure the child's mental illness. The audience who watches the movie carefully with their brains naturally notices the various hints and suspense in the film, and is very excited about the plot that will happen next; while those who are used to watching martial arts and comedians begin to feel a little impatient.
For viewers who are used to popcorn movies, "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" is really boring. There is no fighting scene, no funny scene, no funny, no horror, and no horror. They all shouted that they were deceived and thought they were deceived into the cinema by Kang Jianfei.
Finally, when the little girl said that she could see ghosts, the pace of the whole film quickly became faster, and the audience who were about to doze off also sat up straight and stared at the big screen.
In the film, the scene of the mother and daughter played by Zhong Chuhong and Cai Zhuoyan hugging each other tightly touched many viewers in the cinema. Just when everyone thought the film was over, Huang Qiusheng suddenly returned home and found that the wedding ring on his ring finger was gone.
"So that doctor died from the beginning!"
"Didn't the little girl say it? Many people still think they are alive after they die."
"It turns out that there are ghosts from beginning to end. You just said that this movie was boring and there was not even a ghost in half an hour."
"No, if the psychiatrist is a ghost, how did he communicate with the little girl's mother?"
"There was no communication, they didn't say anything from beginning to end."
“…”
The plot reversal at the last minute of the film gave the audience a big surprise, and few people could predict the ending. And when all the puzzles were solved, the suspense and doubts in the previous film suddenly became clear, which made the audience who understood it exclaim.
According to Hong Kong law, Hong Kong films must have Chinese and English subtitles, so although Sakai Izumizu cannot understand Cantonese, it does not prevent her from understanding the movie through subtitles.
After the movie ended, Sakai Izumizu said admiringly: "Sword Feijun, you have created another very powerful and excellent work. You see, everyone likes it very much, and the discussion is so lively."
Kang Jianfei heard a cheerful voice mixed with some harsh comments.
"What a bad movie, wasting my movie tickets."
"I almost fell asleep when I watched it. Is this a ghost movie?"
"Kang Jianfei can't make movies anymore, this movie is so ugly!"
“…”
Hong Kong is always the world of commercial films. If a film with a slightly literary style like "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" is replaced by other directors, it is estimated that it will be very likely to fail. (To be continued...)
