In recent years, the Hong Kong first-day group MIRROR has won the shoe-shine courtesy of the bigwigs in the Hong Kong circle, and the three fields of film and television and song have developed in an all-round way, and the recently released movie "12 Strange Thieves" starring all members has created a box office myth in the off-season of the movie, and has defeated a number of Hollywood blockbusters with a score of more than 15 million Hong Kong dollars in 3 days, and strongly defended the dignity of Hong Kong films.
Surprisingly, however, this achievement has recently been revealed.
According to Hong Kong media reports, Brother Ghost, a well-known local movie blogger, recently discovered a rather strange thing: the MIRROR movie "12 Strange Thieves" was nearly full during the day on weekdays. Out of curiosity, he decided to buy a ticket to enter the venue and find out. However, when he bought a movie ticket and entered the theater in the morning, he found that the huge screening hall was empty, and he was the only one sitting in the front row. This sudden "charter" experience made him feel a little scared, and in the end he could only read the "charter" with trepidation.
Brother Ghost admitted frankly that he has no objection to the enthusiasm and support of MIRROR fans, and it doesn't hurt to buy tickets to watch it many times. However, he resolutely opposes those ghost scenes, empty movie viewing sites, believing that this is a great damage to the ecology and good atmosphere of the film industry.
"When everyone works together to make a film, shouldn't the quality of the film itself attract the audience? The 'magic drama' that was recorded at the box office but no one watched it, and you MakerVillle (MIRROR's company and producer) are embarrassed to include it in the total box office?
In addition, Brother Ghost, who was worried about the ecology of the industry and the bad atmosphere, also planned to do a survey on the gold content of the movie, so that everyone could have a general understanding of the credibility of the current box office, but considering that this would offend film companies, movie theaters, artists, and fans, and endanger his own safety, he dispelled the idea.
Hong Kong netizens spoke enthusiastically after seeing the video of the ghost brother. Many people left messages saying that there are many ghost scenes and magic scenes in movies starring MIRROR, such as "My Paradise City" starring former member Jiang Tao and "Soul Brewing" starring member Lu Hanting, which is completely false prosperity. What's more, he also said that MIRROR's movies are worthless, and they are just relying on fans to wash them repeatedly, which is completely self-deception.
In the view of the editor "Hong Kong and Taiwan Entertainment Pass", Brother Ghost's criticism is very reasonable, ghost scenes and magic dramas destroy the reputation of the industry, bring bad industry atmosphere, and squeeze the living space of truly high-quality films, if not curbed, it will inevitably have a devastating impact on the Hong Kong film industry.
But does that mean that "12 Monster Thieves" itself is a box office fraud? I don't think so. Because ghost fields and magic dramas are not actually fictitious box office figures, but a kind of abnormal box office that makes less money, MakerVille, as a company that pursues extreme profits as the highest pursuit, can hardly afford to fill these vacancies out of its own pocket.
So, who did the magic drama and ghost field phenomenon of "12 Strange Thieves"? Of course, I am a MIRROR fan. As the most fanatical and largest fan group in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, their determination to support idol works is firm, maybe they don't like this drama, maybe they are tired of watching this drama, or they really don't have time to enter, so they can only express their hearts by buying tickets and not entering the competition under the organization of the support club.
In addition, the long-standing contribution of MIRROR fans to the box office will increase the weight of MIRROR in Hong Kong's film industry, at least in the non-co-production sector. Considering that the results of the Hong Kong Film Awards have become more and more localized in recent years, and the Hong Kong bigwigs have increased their efforts to promote the new generation, the editor has a very subjective prediction: MIRROR members are not far from winning the Academy Awards.
