"Preach in the text. - Tang Tears"
The "hitting the streets" of Hong Kong movies has become the norm.
Judging from the past two years, among the many Hong Kong-made films that have been put on the battlefield in turn, there are only three films that have made money: "The Siege of the Kowloon Walled City", "Temporary Robbery" and "Broken Hell".
is also very interesting, the main creators of these movies happen to be the three actors who are standing at the top of the Chinese box office list in Hong Kong film history.
Unconsciously, a new round of "clearing inventory" action has been put on the agenda.
Ignoring Tony Leung's "Fox Hunt", which has a backlog of N years, it is not a Hong Kong film in itself.
Andy Lau's "Gold Hunting Operation" has been set for May Day, and it is also said that Louis Koo's "On the Way to the Hospital" was also painted on the same day, so I don't know if the latter is also synchronized in the mainland.
In terms of "inventory" of Hong Kong films, how much is the street index?
"Which one is stronger" in film inventory?
If nothing else, Louis Koo's "inventory" quantity will crown the entire Hong Kong film industry.
Roughly counting, from "Wind Forest Volcano", "On the Way to the Hospital", to "Looking for Qin", "The Guardian", "Tailgating", "Who Changed the Big Buddha", "Detective" and "A Line of Life", there are eight films.
Andy Lau followed.
In addition to the upcoming "Gold Hunting Game", there are also several movies such as "Rage", "Nobody 2", "Hong Kong" and "War Epidemic Angel", but the latter two may not see the light of day.
If you count it again, it may be Aaron Kwok.
Even if he hasn't taken on the film for two years, there are still three "stocks" of the Emperor's commercial film "The Insider", the low-budget literary film "The Secret of June" and "Ring Finger".
Donnie Yen and Tony Leung are both "empty-handed".
There's not much left to talk about.
So in the final analysis, Andy Lau, Aaron Kwok and Louis Koo are really the "face" of Hong Kong films, and this year, not to mention the results, the entire Hong Kong film industry is almost just watching the three of them "sing".
But the outlook is not rosy.
First of all, "Gold Hunting Game" is extremely unpopular.
Based on the observation of Hong Kong films in recent years, the number of fans of the film's official account, the number of likes and the popularity of the video released are "proportional" to the final box office and word-of-mouth of the movie.
Regarding this point, the author has classified and compared Hong Kong films.
小成本港片,按票房高低排序,分別是2.37億的《臨時劫案》、1.87億的《毒舌律師》、1.56億的《談判專家》、8065萬的《暗殺風暴》、6488萬的《斷網》、4078萬的《別叫我“賭神”》和2176萬的《困獸》。
Except for "Disconnected" and "Trapped Beast", the number of fans and hot videos of the rest of the movies are directly proportional to the box office.
大製作港片方面,包括6.84億的《九龍城寨之圍城》、5.74億的《金手指》、3.9億的《潛行》、3億的《危機航線》、2.84億的《掃毒3:人在天涯》、1.29億的《海關戰線》、1億的《爆裂點》和4904萬的《風再起時》。
Except for one "Stealth", the popularity and the final box office are upside down, and the rest are no exception.
That's the law.
So, how will Gold Hunt Go?
Some Chinese fans have discussed with the author, and they probably think that the box office will not be very high, but there should always be two to three hundred million, right?
這繞回了“兩億基本盤”話題。
然當下此時,港產片能有兩億基本盤這件事,筆者以為,近乎奢望。
May 1 is a second-class hot file.
"Dumpling Queen" directed by Liu Weiqiang and starring Ma Li is undoubtedly the town film of this schedule, and it is almost certain that the film will sweep the entire May Day schedule, and there is no opponent.
"Gold Hunting Game" released an official video a week earlier than "Dumpling Queen", but the latter is several times more popular than the former in terms of the number of fans and the popularity of video likes.
This is a very clear signal.
The above-mentioned "depository" works.
Except for a small number of films, the vast majority of them are still "covering the market", and even official trailers are rare, but from the investment volume, theme type and historical cases of the main creator, it can be roughly speculated.
In the author's opinion, "Wind Forest Volcano", "Insider" and "Rage Spreads", these three movies can be seen highly, if the schedule is suitable, or there is a power to fight, "Nobody 2" is not a Hong Kong film, and the other is not Andy Lau's work, but it can be omitted, and the rest are all or have a very high street index.
Aaron Kwok can also be mentioned alone.
What's interesting about this person is that two of the three "stock" movies are realistic literary themes, and even the movies that are being filmed are still on this path.
Among the idol-born actors, his path is really unique.
This article lists sixteen films.
Among them, "Hong Kong Land" and "War Epidemic Angel" are out, "Nobody 2" is not included in the observation, and "The Secret of June" and "Ring Finger" are non-commercial genre films and do not consider the box office.
The rest of the movie.
If the aforementioned "Wind Forest Volcano", "The Insider" and "Anger Spread", they also hit the streets.
Then it's not a matter of "indexes".
而是全軍覆沒。
