There was no similar situation in the previous life. All of this was caused by a chain reaction. Luo Xun supported Zhou Xingchi to use IMAX plus 3D technology to shoot "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", and then Xu Ke had the opportunity to borrow some machines to shoot "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers".

Although IMAX was castrated, it is not bad to retain the 3D effect.

At least, as soon as the domestic 3D publicity came out, the popularity of "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers" rose. You know, everyone's taste was originally spoiled by "Avatar", and their interest in ordinary 2D movies declined for a while. Without 3D as a life-saving straw, I'm afraid that "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers" would not have a good time.

Luo Xun felt fortunate for this.

I thought that the first wave of dividends from "Avatar" should belong to "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", but Luo Xun and Zhou Xingchi underestimated the time spent on post-production such as movie special effects, so Xu Ke took the advantage first.

But there is no need to worry.

Because no matter how much 3D is played by Xu Ke's "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers", it cannot change the fact that he did not use IMAX technology to shoot, so "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" will still be China's first IMAX plus 3D full special effects movie!

This advantage...

is incomparable to "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers"!

Only "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" is the real peak of domestic special effects at present. For this, Luo Xun and Zhou Xingchi have waited too long, and they will continue to wait-

Until next Spring Festival!

And in this summer season, the only movie that can compete with "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers" is "October Besieged City".

The lineup of this movie is awesome.

Some people call it the summer version of "The Orphan of Zhao", because in terms of lineup and cast, this movie is quite comparable to "The Orphan of Zhao" released during the Spring Festival.

Zhen Zidan...

Xie Tingfeng...

Two young Hong Kong ace players, in addition to Wang Xuexi, Fan Binbin, and even Leon Lai, Li Yuchun, and Tony Leung Ka Fai, among whom Li Yuchun starred in both "The Siege of the City in October" and "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate".

This situation is not surprising.

During the Spring Festival, Huang Xiaoming also starred in two movies during the Spring Festival. In exaggerated cases, some people even starred in three movies in one period. After all, when they were acting, they did not expect that their movies would be released in one period.

And it doesn't matter if they play supporting roles.

If they play the leading role, they will lose a lot. Playing supporting roles will only make money and not lose money. They are almost invincible and can also make a lot of face. Why not do it?

It's just a little embarrassing when promoting.

You have to run around and promote two competing movies at the same time. It's a bit schizophrenic no matter how you look at it...

Fortunately, between the two movies.

The current gunpowder smell is not strong.

After all, there are many actors who have worked with Xu Laoguai, and there is no grudge between the directors, so there is no verbal battle. It is nothing more than you promote yours and I promote mine. In the end, it is up to the audience to choose which movie to watch. But if necessary, the capital will let the two sides fight, but it has not reached that point yet.

In general, "Dragon Gate Flying Dagger" has a greater advantage!

Not only because the director of "Dragon Gate Flying Dagger" Xu Laoguai has more fans, but also because the male lead is Jet Li, and now Luo Xun has a strong box office appeal in the film industry. His presence in this movie may not be worse than Jet Li.

Even Luo Xun himself did not expect...

Unconsciously, he can already exist as a huge selling point of a movie. "Dragon Gate Flying Dagger" has received a very high level of attention because of him!

What's more interesting is that

In the promotional poster of "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers", Luo Xun and Li Lianjie occupy the same size position on the left and right. The meaning of this is worth considering. You should know that Li Lianjie is a top-tier star. Although Li Lianjie is a top-tier star, because he is really old and has not acted for many years, he is very different from Zhou Xingchi, who is also a top-tier star, but he is still a top-tier star.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse.

Therefore, this poster is more like a high-standard recognition of Luo Xun by the film industry, which means that Luo Xun's presence in "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers" is not weaker than the male lead.

In general...

For the audience, "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers" is more attractive, who let this movie have 3D!

Before "Avatar"

Chinese people have no idea about 3D movies, but after "Avatar", many people have learned about 3D, not only through movies, but also through the publicity of many journalists. Domestic journalists spared no effort to praise the film technology changes brought by Cameron, and finally let this concept gradually penetrate into people's hearts.

At this time.

When many domestic movies started shooting, they all had the idea of ​​following the trend of 3D movie technology, and everyone wanted to learn from "Avatar".

But more people are still waiting and watching.

Now "Dragon Gate Flying Dagger" has become a reference for many people. Everyone wants to see how this movie under the banner of domestic 3D will perform in the end.

Will it crush "October Besieged"?

To be honest, "October Besieged" is definitely not a weak opponent, and it can even be said to be very powerful. As an opponent, it definitely has a high reference value. If Xu Laoguai can win this wave, there is no doubt about it---

All in 3D!

In the future, everyone will play with this technology, and the audience loves to watch it. We are willing to increase investment to learn this thing, all for the box office!

But if Xu Laoguai loses?

That means that "Avatar" is the king of IMAX plus 3D. The gimmick of 3D alone is not enough to make Chinese people buy it. In the future, everyone does not need to rush to get in touch with this new technology. 2D shooting is still fun.

In addition to 3D.

There is another point that has attracted great attention from people in the industry, that is, whether Luo Xun can stabilize his box office performance and prove that the success of "Partners" is not a flash in the pan -

Accidental success certainly counts.

But accidental success is always mixed with luck. Therefore, although Luo Xun has a lot of appeal in the film industry, no one recognizes him as a first-line actor, but only says that he is a hot actor in the film industry -

He needs to show more convincing results!

Although he played the second male lead in "Dragon Gate Flying Dagger", not the male lead, it is also a small test, at least for Luo Xun himself. If this movie is successful, Luo Xun will not only enter the first line, but also become a quasi-first line in the film industry.

In this regard, Luo Xun is also looking forward to it.

The difficulty of this matter itself is not high. As long as the box office beats "The Besieged City", it will be fine, just like the Spring Festival period. In addition, the success of this movie has a second meaning for Luo Xun...
