won the daily box office championship for 8 consecutive days, Zhang Hao touched the porcelain "Jiupin Sesame Official", but he didn't expect it to be successful
A few days ago, the remake of Stephen Chow's movie "New Nine Sesame Officials" was ridiculed by the group as soon as it was launched and accused of destroying the classics.
According to the original reproduction, if you don't move the slightest, you may only be said to be mediocre.
But they have to add more snakes, not only missing classic characters such as Ruhua and Gonggong Li, but also changing the leopard head to a female character, playing a side game, and the typical will not die if you don't do it.
Here, "New Jiupin Sesame Official" has not yet been offline, and there is another movie "Brother Hao Havoc County Ya" that rubs "Jiupin Sesame Official".
The former failed at the box office, with a box office of only 1,305 yuan on the first day, and the latter won the box office championship of online movies for 8 consecutive days because of Erlonghu Haoge, with a total box office of 6.901 million.
01, ultra-low-profile version of "Jiupin Sesame Official" + "Let the Bullets Fly"
The film is written, directed and acted by Zhang Hao, and the territory of the "Erlonghu Haoge" movie universe has been expanded.
His performance is learning from the nonsensical of Xingye, and movies that pay tribute to Stephen Chow are commonplace, and he filmed "New Truant Dragon" in 2021.
Originally, when "Brother Hao in the County Government" started filming, the banner was also "New Jiupin Sesame Official", but unfortunately the name was preempted by others.
But judging from the storyline, it belongs to a hybrid version of "Jiupin Sesame Official" + "Let the Bullets Fly".
Feng Hao is a housekeeper who went to Ancheng to be the county magistrate for the old man. (Side quest to find Dad)
The county magistrate of Ancheng is a high-risk industry, and the first 43 people, some of whom are self-denying and defying the law, and some who are corrupt and pervert the law, all died in the line of duty.
As the 44th county magistrate, he faced the squire bully Gao Dengtang, adhering to the soft and hard way, and his life was not bad.
But under the scolding of the people, the contempt of liking girls, and the truth that his father (the first county magistrate of Anseong) was killed by Gao Dengtang, he woke up and decided to resist.
Helpless, under the pursuit of Gao Dengtang, he strayed into the bandits' den, learned a good skill (whistle taming, archery), and happened to meet the son of Xiong Dashuai.
And Xiong Dashuai happened to be his father's old subordinate, and with the support of Dashuai, he returned to Ancheng, punished Gao Dengtang, and hugged the beauty by the way.
There is no doubt that Zhang Hao is talented and can mix the two movies together, and also add elements of treasure hunting and Japanese.
And many movie stalks are used just right, and by the way, they pay tribute to "The Legend of Deer and Ding", "Truant Weilong 2" and Gu Long, etc., which shows that he has put a lot of thought into it, and this creative attitude is worthy of recognition.
02, "Fang Tang Mirror" Wu Qihua joined in
"New Jiupin Sesame Official" found Huang Yishan and Pomegranate Sister Yuan Qiongdan to take charge, while Zhang Hao invited Wu Qihua.
In "Jiupin Sesame Official", Fang Tangjing played by Wu Qihua is like a reed, with a cheap look, and he plays it very well.
In "Brother Hao's Troubled County", he turned into Master Zhen, although he changed his vest, he changed the soup but not the medicine, and he was still a tiger.
Wu Qihua created many villains in his early years, and later became a gentle and jade-like killer in TVB.
For example, the easy-going Cheng Zhimei in "Wonderful Hands and Benevolence", and the humble gentleman Zhang Wuji in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer".
In recent years, he has been mixed in big online movies, so that some netizens complained: Wu Qihua, why are you so troubled... Is there really such a lack of money?
Wu Qihua has a good way of investing, so naturally he is not short of money, acting in online movies, he may really like filming.
It is worth mentioning that he has two Hong Kong dramas this year, "The Crime of Non-Division" with Chen Wei, and "The Law Enforcers" with Xuan Xuan.
In addition to Wu Qihua, there is also a familiar face in the movie, and it is Zhao Xiaorui who plays the villain Gao Dengtang.
His first impression was naturally the black whirlwind Li Kui in the CCTV version of "Water Margin", who performed straightforward, loyal, reckless and cute, which is simply Li Kui himself.
There is also Zheng Lao Fart in "The Mansion Gate", who used the big stomach king to curry favor with the Seventh Master and was able to stay in the mansion gate.
Zhao Xiaorui can play honest roles, and he can also control the roles that are very spicy and have a deep city, such as the killer whale in "Blade Attack", Cao Peng in "Sweeping the Black Storm", etc.
"Brother Hao in the County Government" naturally has many shortcomings, such as the handling of the ending, which does not judge the villain above the court like in "Jiupin Sesame Official", and uses violence to counter violence.
The most disappointing thing is the heroine Tong Fei, who has an expression from beginning to end, revealing embarrassment everywhere.
Tong Fei, formerly known as Tong Fei, her starting point is actually not low, she entered the industry and signed a contract with Wang Jing Company, she was born as a "Jing girl", and has cooperated with many big names.
For example, Ah Bao in "Greater Shanghai", Ah Cai in the "Macau Vice" series, etc.
At that time, under the strong support of Wang Jing, it was also rated by some media as one of the potential "Four Little Flowers" of the post-90s.
Later, the resources became worse and worse, and she has been circling in online movies, and her acting skills have not improved, so she is almost the worst Jing girl.
03, "Erlonghu Haoge" movie universe
In online movies, Zhang Hao can be called a super IP.
The starting point of the story starts with a 2012 "Erlonghu Hao Ge: Siping Youth".
Zhang Hao, who had been working in the theater for 3 years at that time, had some acting experience, but he didn't know much about shooting, editing, and lenses.
Maybe the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, so he dared to take 2,000 yuan at that time, and then find a group of friends to make a movie together.
After filming, there was no money for post-production, so Zhang Hao learned by himself, and then used his favorite Hong Kong movie soundtrack.
After everything was completed, he chose to upload it on Singles' Day on November 11, 2012, maybe he was just a little fuss at first, but he didn't expect to make a Wang Bang, and the gears of fate began to turn from this moment.
"Erlonghu Haoge: Siping Youth" has been rapidly spread on the Internet, and the cumulative number of broadcasts on the whole network has exceeded 100 million.
Some people like the black humor in the movie, some people think that the film is realistic, and of course, there are also people who criticize the movie for being vulgar and nonsense.
Although the movie was taken off the shelves in the end, Zhang Hao did become popular, and the "Erlonghu Haoge" movie universe was launched.
In the following years, "Erlonghu Haoge's Resurgence" and "Erlonghu Haoge's Fury Road" were launched one after another, and the derivative works "Siping Youth" series were one after another.
Zhang Hao has been influenced by Hong Kong movies since he was a child, and some Hong Kong stars can be seen everywhere in his movies, such as Yuan Qiongdan, Li Xiuxian, Wu Zhixiong, Lu Huiguang, Zou Zhaolong, etc.
The territory of the "Erlonghu Haoge" cinematic universe is still expanding, and its success is inseparable from the following reasons.
First, the investment cost is small, and there is no pressure at the box office.
Take "Brother Hao in the County" as an example, the investment should not be more than 10 million, and it is easy to return to the capital and make money.
Second, paying tribute to the classic IP, Zhang Hao's performance has its own characteristics.
Third, the frequency of updates is high, since 2012, nearly 20 movies have been made now, and last month a "Siping Police Case: The Diamond Robbery" was launched, which received a box office of 14.76 million.
Zhang Hao is very clear about his positioning and advantages, so steady and steady, he has won a place in online movies.
I hope that this Siping young man who came out of the bud rice field back then will go farther and farther in the future. (Written by: Youwei)
