A wave of publicity has given "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" a steady rise, and film critics have generally praised the film's reputation.

Of course, there are also some newspapers and magazines that think this movie is vulgar, erotic, pornographic, excessively nude, bloody, dark, and of poor picture quality.

"The whole movie "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" is full of dark distortions of human nature. After watching this movie, I only saw a pervert killing people continuously. Every shot is so bloody that it makes people sick. The picture quality is rough and it is really a piece of cake.

This is a big piece of shitty film that sells sheep’s head as dog’s meat!” - "Ta Kung Pao"

There is also a lot of negative news. Many serious newspapers and periodicals have criticized this movie. They even think that this movie will teach young people bad things.

This kind of polarized comments also increased the film's reputation in disguise. But on the other hand, it also limited the film's audience.

However, the audience of slasher movies itself is very fixed. It cannot be compared with the supernatural kung fu of "Mr. Zombie". Not to mention those popular movie themes.

Negative news is normal. Even "A Better Tomorrow" was criticized for being a bad boy. There is no art form or medium in the world that everyone can like.

When Wu Xiaozu decided to make a thriller about a murderer, he had the purpose of attracting attention and being topical. He was already mentally prepared to be scolded.

Fortunately, most film critics, including critics and film critics, still support the film. The continuous publicity has also contributed to the film's box office.

Affected by word-of-mouth and publicity, after the first two days of tepid box office, the box office of "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" showed significant growth starting from the third day.

In five days, the box office easily achieved a good result of HK$2.03 million.

For a horror movie and a niche movie, this kind of box office is enough to be called a "box office dark horse". This is inseparable from the energy of the Jiang family.

Of course, this also proves the market potential of Hong Kong films.

In 1980, the total box office on Hong Kong Island exceeded 100 million, reaching 184.3 million, with an average ticket price of HK$8.

In 1981, it reached 241 million, and the ticket price rose to 10 Hong Kong dollars. In 1982, it was 404 million, in 1983, it was 411 million, in 1984, it was 560 million, and in 1985, it was 608 million.

In 6 years, the market revenue has increased 6 times. The growth rate is amazing!

Before September 1986, the total box office in Hong Kong reached 580 million, breaking last year's record is just around the corner.

If there are no accidents, within the past two years, the local box office of Hong Kong Island will have a box office of 1 billion. This has been proven in previous lives!

These are only the local box office in Hong Kong Island, the Bay Market, the Japanese and Korean markets, the Southeast Asian market and even the European and American markets are not included.

With more than one billion in the 1980s, are you still wondering why social groups come to make money? You can’t even make a profit by selling fans and making movies.

…

Leung Gai-fai has been interviewed by several media outlets in the past few days. The reporters are very interested in the sad journey of this down-and-out actor returning to the big screen. This made him a little limelight in September.

Jiang Jiahua played a big role in this. Coupled with the great director Li Hanxiang's greetings, Liang Gaohui's return to the entertainment industry was a matter of course.

Now, all it takes is an opportunity for the Wanwan Cultural Department to unblock it.

I believe that with Li Hanxiang taking care of him, and Jiang Jiahua being good at dancing, and relying on Liang Gaohui's popularity during this period, it will not be difficult to find this opportunity.

Later, the Wanwan authorities even explained that they only banned Liang Gaohui for one year as a warning to others! So everyone knew about it later.

Never argue with the Taiwanese authorities about this kind of thing. These politicians are very good at bringing your IQ to their level, and then use their years of idiotic experience to reward you with a tea egg!

Compared to Leung Gai-fai's popularity, director Wu Xiaozu is more curious among insiders. They all think that this young man has great ideas and has certain attainments in the field of horror films.

It is almost classified into the framework of "eighteen-tier directors of small-budget horror films". It is far behind the top directors.

"Azu, when will your next movie be released?" This was the first sentence Wu Xiaozu said when he met Jiang Zhiqiang.

"The Butcher on a Rainy Night" has soared at the box office and has the potential to become a dark horse at the box office with its small profits. As a businessman, how can Jiang Zhiqiang give up such an opportunity to make money? And he also wants to take advantage of such an opportunity and enter the field of investment and production.

For the time being, it seems that Wu Xiaozu meets the requirements of Antai Pictures.

"As soon as possible, I will save the script and give it to Jiang Sheng for you to review." Wu Xiaozu agreed without thinking. At this time, Wu Xiaozu still had no right to choose.
