Preach in words. - Don Tears
All indications.
The Hong Kong film commercial blockbuster "Sweeping Drugs III" is about to kick off.
And the third part of the series is the main creator of the big blood change.
It is speculated that the purpose of the producer is to go in the direction of box office word-of-mouth.
Because on the basis of the good reputation of the first part, the second part of the box office was a big success, but the word of mouth slipped very badly.
Otherwise, there is no reason to parachute into Aaron Kwok and recall Liu Qingyun.
Of course, the result of the change of formation has to wait for the release of the film to know.
But at this time, some people said that without Andy Lau, the box office ideal to 7-8E, not ideal 4-5, but not ideal situation mostly.
Someone added that "Sweeping Drugs III" is good to be over half a billion.
These two sentences are reasonable conjectures from the perspective of fans, and it does not matter whether they are right or wrong.
Some people also say that Aaron Kwok's box office is not very resistant, and the peerless Aaron Kwok performance is very good, but the box office Chow Yun Fat accounted for a lot of credit.
Another added that why did the word "not how" was used, when did Aaron Kwok carry the box office? Andy Lau's "Fuchun Mountain Jutu" super century big bad film box office is enough for Aaron Kwok to chase for a lifetime.
These two sentences are very excessive, the previous sentence has reasonableness, after all, Fa Ge is Fa Ge, and the latter sentence is purely a business arrears problem.
The other comments are much the same.
Of course, among these remarks, Andy Lau fans account for a large proportion.
This is normal.
After all, the second Andy Lau double-starred plus the film producer.
As a fan, such tendentious attitudes and remarks, as long as there are no low-quality situations, are within the reasonable range.
First of all, let's talk about the current situation and expectations of "Anti-Drug III".
Although Hong Kong movies are declining, every big-budget film will receive more attention than before.
People who like Hong Kong films.
They feel that the pure style of Hong Kong movies to watch one less, so they feel cherished.
People who don't like Hong Kong films.
I will want to see what waves Can Hong Kong films still make.
In such a situation, in fact, I admire the film giants who still stick to the Hong Kong film position.
The local and Southeast Asian markets are almost lost, and the only thing to rely on is the mainland film market.
This leads to the risk of large investments being extremely elevated.
So we see a sharp decline in the output of Hong Kong films, which of course has a market factor.
But even so.
They're still trying to leave something for Hong Kong movies.
For example, let's look back at Hong Kong movies from the last decade.
The movies that can really talk about the box office reputation may be three.
That is, two "Cold Wars" and one "Peerless".
"Cold War II" still holds the record for the highest grossing Chinese film in the Hong Kong market.
"Peerless" is also the first Hong Kong film to break through the billion mark in the mainland market.
The other films had to be back.
Further, "Peerless" is undoubtedly the benchmark among the benchmarks.
So if "Sweeping Drugs III" is aimed at it.
It's just too normal.
So, how much is the three main lineups of Aaron Kwok, Gu Tianle and Liu Qingyun worth at the box office?
400-500 million? 700-800 million? Or is it a limit of 500 million?
In fact, before the release of the film, the prediction is not accurate.
Before the release of "Sweeping Drugs II", who would have thought that it would break the record of "Peerless"?
If there is no withdrawal of heavyweight films in the same period, what will be the box office of "Sweeping Drugs II"? It's hard to predict.
After all, the explosive power of the two movies "Eight Hundred" and "Young You" was also seen by everyone later.
The initial schedule of "Sweeping Drugs II" is only one step away from the "nuclear bomb" level of "Nezha's Demon Boy Descending".
The ending of the collision between the two needs no further words.
Of course we need to respect the facts.
In any case, "Sweeping Drugs II" is currently the runner-up of the mainland box office of Hong Kong films.
Andy Lau and Gu Tianle's combination of males is the first achievement.
That's the topic.
The issue of actor appeal is like a fish in the throat, and it has to be discussed.
Still taking the last ten years as an example, taking the works of Liu and Guo as the object, the cameos are excluded and only the starring genres within three times are counted.
Let's start with a set of numbers.
Andy Lau participated in a total of 27 films, of which "The Great Cause of Party Building", "Cold War", "My Girlhood", "My Secret Agent Grandpa", "The Great Wall", "Railway Flying Tiger", "The Taste of Peppercorns" and "Detective Chinatown 3" are not counted, so the total number of starring works is 19.
Aaron Kwok has a total of 23 works, excluding "The Night of the Better and Better Village" and "Dream Partner" and counting 21 works.
Andy Lau's films grossed 8.55 billion yuan.
The top three are "Bomb Disposal Expert 2" with 1.317 billion, "Anti-Drug 2" with 1.285 billion and "Macau Storm 3" with 1.116 billion.
The minimum three are "Sister Peach" 0.7 billion, "Future Police" and "Blood Choir" are both 0.6 billion.
Aaron Kwok grossed 7.453 billion.
The highest three "Peerless" are 1.263 billion, "Three Dozen White Bone Essences" are 1.2 billion, and "The Great Haunting of the Heavenly Palace" is 1.046 billion.
The minimum three are "Accomplices" 0.23 billion, "Mai Luren" 0.18 billion and "Floating City Tycoon" 0.09 billion.
The average box office of the two is 450 million and Aaron Kwok 345 million.
Purely in numbers.
Regardless of the total box office, the highest box office and the lower box office limit, Aaron Kwok is inferior to Andy Lau.
But if you look at the genre of the subject matter, you can analyze it.
Among Andy Lau's nineteen films, the mass commercial theme accounts for sixteen, and only "Sister Peach", "Lost Orphans" and "Blood Choir" are niche literature and art.
Among Aaron Kwok's twenty-one films, there are five literary and artistic themes, namely "Favorite", "Floating City Tycoon", "Before Dawn", "Mai Luren" and the latest release of "Secret Visitor", in addition to five niche suspense films, "B+ Detective", "Accomplice" and "Christmas Rose", plus "Secret War" and "National Witness".
Look at the box office performance of Aaron Kwok's commercial genre films.
The main works, "Cold War", "Cold War II", "Journey to the West Three Dozen White Bone Essence", "Peerless" and "Journey to the West's Daughter Country" have a total box office of 4.115 billion, with an average box office of more than 800 million.
The above remarks about using "Fuchun Mountain Jutu" as an actor's appeal are simply ridiculous.
It should be removed by Andy Lau fans.
So the box office appeal problem.
As I said long ago, it must be related to the subject matter and the style and direction of the actors.
Moreover, the box office explosion of a movie, as the main creator, should enjoy this reputation, but the credit is all on an actor is outrageous.
Movies are really not personal shows.
If you really want to talk about single resistance, such as the Aaron Kwok photo album in the 1990s dominating the Taiwan and mainland markets for seven consecutive years, as well as the concert of the four kings at the peak, or your record sales are good, these can be counted.
But as far as the film industry is concerned, talking about monoclonal antibody is actually a joke.
From another point of view, of course.
Objectively speaking, Aaron Kwok's current acting level has really reached the highest level.
Taking the recent works as a measure, the actors who cooperate are the top figures in the Chinese film industry, such as Shuangliang Zhou in the Hong Kong film industry, Wang Qianyuan and Duan Yihong in the mainland, and in these works, in addition to the "Cold War" period, which is slightly inferior to Leung Ka Fahui, "Breaking the Game" against Wang Qianyuan, "Peerless" cooperates with idol Fa Ge, "Secret Visitor" and Duan Yihong play, not only do not fall behind, but the single performance can be described as radiant.
In another pending "When the Wind Rises Again", director Weng Ziguang said that Aaron Kwok's performance is more refined and sharp than that of the "Blood and Plums" period.
Therefore, on the issue of filming, he may need to get a little closer to Andy Lau.
Because the acting skills have reached a certain level, in fact, they ignore the subject matter.
Let's talk about the box office expectations of "Sweeping Drugs III".
The final landing point, at this stage, in fact, no one knows, and if you have to say that you know, it is nothing more than a guess.
But Aaron Kwok, Gu Tianle and Liu Qingyun are such a lineup.
An optimistic expectation is inevitable.
Aiming for a billion shouldn't be outrageous.
And word of mouth may surpass "Anti-Drug II".
#
However, this box office-only attitude is actually very bad.
After all, for an actor, professionally self-chasing, in the years of acting career to gain the love and respect of fans, this is the greatest value, not just staring at a number.
Take Andy Lau as an example, if the box office is theory, then he is short of value before the box office of "Sweeping Drugs II" exceeds one billion in 2019?
Or once the box office is not good, his fans will be disappointed in him and no longer like him?
This is clearly not the right understanding.
So no matter the box office hit, he should always be the legendary idol in the hearts of his fans.
And whether it is first or not, in fact, is far from being so important.
This view.
