Chapter four hundred and ninety-ninth lively summer
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Hong Kong comedy was the world of the Xu brothers. At that time, the Xu brothers' movies were not only a guarantee of box office in comedy movies, but also at the best level in Hong Kong movies.
It was because Zhao Yazhi successively participated in the films of the Xu brothers, including Fa Qian Han, directed by Wu Yusen, and starring Xu Guanying and Xu Guanjie, which became the most popular actress and the highest paid actress in Hong Kong at that time.
Unfortunately, just when the Xu brothers' company was at its peak, Xinyi City suddenly appeared. Then, Xu Guanjie, the third brother of Xu brothers, dug up to Xinyi City for a high price to shoot the Best Partner, and then the Best Partner was sold. The Xu brothers turned against each other and fell apart, resulting in the Majesty of the Xu brothers, and the momentum and strength that Xiongzhuo dominated the film industry was no longer visible.
However, although the Xu brothers are no longer in glory, there are still many big stars and independent production companies. Even if the Xu brothers' movies cannot win the annual championship, as long as they appear, they are quite sure that they will be in the top ten or even top five of the annual box office.
However, the Xu brothers have produced fewer and fewer movies in recent years.
However, the luck of fighting the Qin Warriors this time was not very good. In the second half of the movie, I actually met the film of the Xu brothers.
There is no way to do this. Although Qiao Feng is the largest shareholder and the boss of Longteng Cinema, the Xu brothers are Jiahe, and they are not bad either, and they are also shareholders of the Cinema.
Therefore, in the screening, Qiao Feng could not arrange the situation of fighting the Qin Warriors in ancient and modern times to a time period where the schedule is good and there is no strong competitor, which is completely impossible.
You should know that this is the summer season, and the most released films are the best time to appear in the year.
Jiahe alone has two other films in addition to the Xu brothers. One is a sequel to Cheng Long's police story, and the other is a young master.
This is still from Jiahe. If you add films such as the School of New Art City in Princess Jin, and the collaboration between Qiao Feng and Shaw Brothers, these are the four films that will be released in August.
With such screening volume and production scale, even if Longteng Cinema is the largest and most extensive theater giant in Hong Kong, it can only release four large-scale films with great investment and influence at the same time.
I don’t dare to go more, otherwise it will be internal friction.
The talk between chickens and ducks can only be arranged in July, because the summer season will be released in September.
July is not the case. If we talk about the quality of time, July is even better than August.
Because July is just off for school, and August is about to start school. Students are just off for vacation. When school is about to start, everyone has to do some homework and preview their homework, so there will be less time.
Therefore, the battle between the Qin Warriors in ancient and modern times can only welcome a strong opponent after enjoying the dominance of the family for a period of time.
The new film of the Xu brothers is called Chicken and Jae Talk. This film can be regarded as the re-production of the Xu brothers. Although Xu Guanjie only made a guest appearance, he was still a guest appearance himself.
There is a "Xu Ji Roast Restaurant" in Hong Kong, which is famous for roast goose. Xu Guanwen plays the rude and merciful owner of the Lao Xu Ji roast duck restaurant. However, Lao Xu is conservative and blind and confident. His business philosophy is obviously behind the times but he refuses to make any changes. He is also very harsh to his friends. Lao Xu and his mother-in-law are constantly in conflict with his mother-in-law. She is a working woman with an in-depth understanding. She believes that people should keep up with the times, constantly innovate and seek change, so that they will not be eliminated in the end.
Soon, a new fast food fried chicken restaurant funded by foreign investors was suddenly opened near Xuji Hotel. Its magnificent decoration attracted many customers. In addition, their business methods are full of the atmosphere of the times, making Lao Xu's store less and less crowded. Although Lao Xu tried his best, he still couldn't turn the tide. The guys' job change was undoubtedly a step further.
When Lao Xu was frustrated, he planned to sell the store to an international consortium. Later, he realized that with the support of his wife, son and friend, he borrowed funds from his mother-in-law to reform the store business, combine tradition with modern packaging, and finally made "Xu Ji" come back to life and become one of the top ten "business geniuses".
The film is based on the actual life of Hong Kong's petty citizens. The main line focuses on the theme of innovation and change, and is concentrated on it, which is closely linked to the interests, views and experiences of many people.
The names of the film are all based on the main foods of the two stores. The duck seller meets the chicken seller, so it is called Chicken Talk to the duck.
This film is different from the Hong Kong comedy films. It is popular but not vulgar. It makes people laugh and feel and inspire. The film describes the conflict between Lao Xu and his friend and his mother-in-law, which is appreciated by both the elite and the masses. After the reform, everyone's relationship is filled with warmth and affection.
Xu Guanwen mainly performs his personal performance in the film, and the performances of others are all to set off his performances. His colorful expressions and loud language all grasped the hearts of the audience.
As Sister Ya's remaining heat has not disappeared, especially with the constant scandals about Zeng Xiaoyan and Le Bei, the box office of Chicken and Ducks was cut by nearly three million on the first day of the release of the Chinese and modern times, which is not inferior to the relationship between the Qin Warriors in ancient and modern times.
The next day, Chicken and Duck Talk once again received a box office of 3.1 million, and 6 million in two days. It is really worthy of the luxurious starring lineup, the collective return of the three brothers of the Xu family, and the strong guest appearance of the female star Zhang Aijia, who is not considered the starring actor.
When all kinds of movies in the summer season were either cold or hot, the promotion of Miss Hong Kong and the downturn of Sister Asia also reached the most critical time.
For Sister Ya's low-level, Wireless is just a good deal, because compared to TV stations that do serious programs, gossip magazines and newspapers that do not sell well, or have good sales, but have a low-end style, are the main players in ATV.
All the bad reports are all due to them, and they have little to do with wireless. At most, wireless will only add to the insult and add fuel to the fire.
When the wireless side is trying hard to lower ATV, ATV will naturally not sit idly by. When it comes to public relations for its sister Asia, it is also contacting the media to write some Hong Kong sister’s black news.
However, there are not many bad news about Miss Hong Kong. Even if there are many, they have become Miss Hong Kong in the early years. At least there is no bad news about the beauties in this year.
