Hong Kong films have been in decline for many years, and now the local market in Hong Kong is also not improving, and the box office is still one-sided and no one is watching. However, in the mainland market, it has repeatedly achieved box office success, and many box offices have exceeded the 1 billion yuan mark. For example, "Peerless" has exploded nearly 1.3 billion at the box office in the industry and the outside world, and director Zhuang Wenqiang is worthy of the selling guarantee, and the film has also helped the heroine Zhang Jingchu to return to the peak!
"Peerless" is one of the most explosive Hong Kong films in recent years, and its record is historical. The film is produced by Bona, written and directed by Zhuang Wenqiang, and starring Chow Yun Fat, Aaron Kwok, Zhang Jing and others. The film tells the story of the criminal genius "painter" and the counterfeiting genius Li Wen who combined their swords to create super counterfeit banknotes. A first-class star cast, a strong behind-the-scenes production team, and a director with plenty of money can finally let go of his hands and feet to play to the fullest.
The big sale of "Peerless" also declares the rise of Hong Kong films in the mainland market, and now that Hong Kong films account for an increasing proportion of the box office in the mainland, it is inevitable that they will become the mainstream of the market in the future. Although Chow Yun-fat and other superstars are old, they are still playing their residual heat, and many people of the younger generation have also stepped forward to take over, and now Hong Kong films have shown signs of recovery. The advantage of Hong Kong films is the talent of screenwriters and directors, in this regard, the mainland film industry is not enough, high-quality Hong Kong films can also attract excellent actors from the mainland, so it is easy to sell at the box office.
"Peerless" was released in the fiercely competitive National Day file, and the opponents at the same time were Zhang Yimou Deng Chao's "Shadow", Happy Twist "Li Cha's Aunt" and other blockbusters, but in the end it was Zhuang Wenqiang who laughed to the end. Before the release of this blockbuster, few people were optimistic, and they also predicted that it would hit the street at the box office, and as a result, it won the championship at the mainland box office of 1.273 billion yuan. The first day only received 54.82 million yuan, this opening painting is indeed average, but it quickly completed the counterattack, and maintained a strong staying power all the way, and finally reversed the box office.
The box office of "Peerless" is as high as 453 million yuan, deducting the completion of the investor is still a big profit, the net profit of this film can be calculated in "100 million" units. Although Hong Kong films are no longer as brilliant as they used to be, their audience is still very wide, because these films have actors that the audience is familiar with and likes, so everyone is still willing to go to the scene. In contrast, most of the current mainland movies are rotten on one side, and over time, the reputation will be exhausted, and then they will "die".
The biggest winner of "Peerless" is undoubtedly Zhang Jingchu, the actress has a high starting point in the film industry, she has also achieved very brilliant achievements, but she was depressed for a long time before the film. The success of the new film has helped her to reach the top again, the omnipotent "one sister" is back, her performance in the movie is very outstanding, and the scenes made by the powerful faction are good to watch. Zhuang Wenqiang set a new height for his personal achievements this time, but also set a milestone for Hong Kong films, and he handed over the first Hong Kong film box office in history.
"Peerless" is an unending explosion of Hong Kong films, which is directly reflected in its reputation, and Douban is as high as 8.1 points. People familiar with this platform know that the ratings of Chinese films are generally low, and it is not easy for Zhuang Wenqiang's new film to score this high score, and the film finally broke the historical record of Hong Kong films. In the film, Fa Ge is still so handsome, Guo Tianwang is skilled in acting, Zhang Jingchu is still stunning, and the audience has not seen such an enjoyable Hong Kong movie for a long time!
