"Mr. Red Carpet" lost miserably, the box office was only enough for Andy Lau's salary, and the superstar had "fallen"

Sure enough, in this year's Spring Festival, Jia Ling's new film "Hot and Hot" directed and acted by herself is still the most successful one. The total box office of this film is currently close to 2 billion yuan, and the Douban score has also risen to 8.0 points. It is not only the highest-grossing film in this year's Spring Festival, but also the film with the best reputation during this year's Spring Festival.

Driven by the box office of nearly 2 billion yuan, Jia Ling achieved a cumulative total box office of more than 8 billion yuan in starring movies through only two movies. The last Chinese actor to achieve this goal was Wu Jing, who had the most box office appeal.

However, at any time someone is happy, someone will be sad, but what people didn't expect is that in recent years, the Spring Festival stalls are always happy with that wave of people, and the same group of people are sad.

Jia Ling in this year's Spring Festival file is as happy as in 2021, because the movies she directed and acted in during the Spring Festival in the past two years have become champions, and they have all received unanimous praise from most audiences.

And Andy Lau in this year's Spring Festival file is also as sad as in 2021, because the movies starring him in the Spring Festival file in the past two years have become the biggest "cannon fodder".

In the Spring Festival in 2021, the biggest "cannon fodder" is "The Crowd", which is co-starring Andy Lau and Xiao Yang. In this year's Spring Festival, the biggest "cannon fodder" is "Mr. Red Carpet", which is starring Andy Lau personally.

Although these two films are the "cannon fodder" of the Spring Festival, there are still differences between the two, at least the "Crowded" of that year still made some money more or less, but today's "Mr. Red Carpet" may cause huge losses for the filmmaker.

has been in theaters for several days, and the cumulative total box office of "Mr. Red Carpet" has just exceeded 70 million yuan. Even "Let's Shake the Sun", which was not as good as it at the beginning and the theme was not suitable for the Spring Festival, has now surpassed "Mr. Red Carpet" at the cumulative total box office. This means that among all the live-action movies in this year's Spring Festival, "Mr. Red Carpet" has the lowest box office.

And the low box office is not terrible, what is terrible is that the cost of this film is very high.

Not long ago, the official of the movie "Mr. Red Carpet" just announced the cost of the film.

As a director, Ning Hao's salary exceeded 24 million yuan. As the first starring actor, Andy Lau's salary has exceeded 60 million.

You must know that the total box office of "Mr. Red Carpet" has just exceeded 70 million yuan, and Andy Lau's salary alone has almost caused the film's loss. has no box office appeal, but with so much salary, I don't know what kind of idea the filmmaker is now.

In addition to the remuneration of the director and the first leading actor, plus other expenses, the total cost of "Mr. Red Carpet" has exceeded 260 million yuan.

2 At a cost of 260 million RMB, the film should at least receive more than 1 billion RMB at the box office to ensure that it can break even. However, judging from the current results and trends, the final total box office of "Mr. Red Carpet" will not exceed 100 million. It seems that the amount of its losses may be the highest of the year.
