February 5, 1983.

The four-nation war among DreamWorks, Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Art City finally kicked off.

Golden Harvest's "Plan A" was the first to hit the battlefield.

At the end of January, "Project A" took the express train of the Lunar New Year stalls early and was released.

Because there is no fierce film and "Project A", Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao, Yuan Biao, three of Golden Harvest's most capable kung fu superstars at present, also gathered Chengjiaban and Hongjiaban, two of Xiangjiang's counting movie teams. A good movie grabs the box office. Therefore, as soon as "Project A" was released, it swept the box office. In just one week and two days after its release, "Project A" won more than 12 million Hong Kong dollars.

Moreover, "Project A" not only has excellent grades, but also has a good reputation-this time, the critics and audiences' comments on "Project A" are very consistent, and all film critics and audiences think that "Project A" is One of the few good kung fu movies in recent years.

The achievement of "Project A" made Zou Wenhuai feel very happy - in Zou Wenhuai's mind, the Lunar New Year holiday in 1983 must be the world of Golden Harvest, and it must be the world of "Project A"!

However--

It didn’t work out—as soon as February 5th arrived, DreamWorks’ “The True Colors of Heroes” and New Art City’s “Best Partner Shows Their Magical Powers” ​​stepped onto the battlefield at the same time, and then the Three Kingdoms War began.

Before the release, neither DreamWorks personnel such as Xu Cun, nor New Arts City personnel such as Lei Juekun had full confidence—not to mention that "Project A", which is a rare good movie in the history of Xiangjiang movies, is currently being screened. Just saying that "The True Colors of Heroes" was screened in Liberty Cinemas, a brand new theater, made Xu Cun feel unsure. Although the Best Partner series is also a rare good movie, all the staff in New Art City are full of infinite fear for Xu Cun, a man who has repeatedly created miracles.

but--

When "The True Colors of Heroes" and "The Best Partner Shows His Powers" were released, Xu Cun and other DreamWorks staff and Lei Juekun and other New Arts City staff all breathed a sigh of relief—"The True Colors of Heroes" and "The Best Partner Shows Their Powers" The average attendance rate of Shentong on the first day was 92% and 94% respectively, while the average attendance rate of "Plan A" dropped from 93% the previous day to 100%. eighty seven.

The average attendance rate on the first day of "The True Colors of Heroes" reached 92% mainly due to the strong box office appeal of Xu Cun, Zhou Runfa, and Zhang Guorong. Ninety-four percent is mainly due to the good reputation accumulated by the first "Best Partner". And the impact of "The Best Partner Shows Its Abilities".

Zou Wenhuai and others were mentally prepared for the sharp drop in the average attendance rate of "Project A" - "The True Colors of a Hero" and "The Best Partner Shows Its Magical Powers" are both fierce films with famous directors and famous actors. Simultaneous release will naturally steal the box office of "Plan A" at the beginning.

But it doesn't matter - Zou Wenhuai and others have confidence in "Plan A"! They all believed that as long as "A True Colors" and "Best Partner Shows Their Talents" were unsatisfactory, with the excellence of "Project A", the average attendance rate of "Project A" would definitely increase!

What makes Zou Wenhuai and others feel cold is that once "The True Colors of Heroes" and "The Best Partner Shows His Powers" were released, film critics and audiences gave these two films, especially "True Heroes" extremely high praise. evaluate!

Oriental Daily:

"I thought I was engaging in high technology, but in fact it wasn't very interesting. The performances of the leading actors were a bit off."

"I have been waiting for three years, just to wait for an opportunity. I want to fight for my breath. I don't want to prove how great I am. I want to tell others that I must get back what I lost! The author has experienced the chivalrous and courageous, arrogance-ridden, blood-boiling rivers and lakes. The hero who raises his arms, the hero who promises a thousand dollars, and the warrior who sacrifices his life for righteousness made my blood rush and my heart surge. Wearing a windbreaker, holding a pair of guns, a toothpick in his mouth, and a charming smirk, he kills a person in ten steps and never stays behind! I can’t describe the movie "The True Colors of a Hero" in words. I can only Say, Xu Cun really deserves to be the number one director in the world!"

Sing Tao Daily:

"Due to the unprecedented success of the first film, "Best Partner Shows Its Abilities", a Hong Kong spy film imitating 007, has also been officially set as the keynote of the series. In terms of investment in film technology, it can be seen that Mecca has worked hard. The Rocket Chair, and Robot Wars, is simply a combination of 007 and Transformers, and the visual effect is very good.”

"I don't know whether it is Zhou Runfa who made Brother Ma, or Brother Xiaoma who made Zhou Runfa. This is a question that will never be answered. With his superb acting skills and unparalleled charm, Zhou Runfa has created an almost mythical eternity for us. image. Just as Xiao Ma said in the film: "I am a god, and the one who can control his own destiny is a god!" "So from then on, the image of Little Ma has become a god-like totem in my heart."

Ming Pao:

"There is a sense of joy, humor, and connotation. The robot war is a highlight. A large number of hand-made models and the use of fireworks, although not as shocking and realistic as the special effects made in the digital field, still look very interesting. But also very sincere.”

"The opposition of evil and justice makes this world passionate, and this opposition is mainly a matter between two men, so the world becomes very simple. Two men with guns need no reason to meet head-on. They are fighting for nothing. What is secondary and complicated is just the process of one killing the other. During this period, the intertwining of love and hatred is the real theme. "The True Colors of Heroes" praises and publicizes loyalty and love, even if it is loyalty and love in the evil camp Giri, or the loyalty and giri of a villain in a split second. The philosophy of Tomorrow is so simple and straightforward—if a man has a choice, he should choose giri, and if he has a second choice, he You should choose a gun. Xu Cun, the world's number one director, explained to us what is called violent aesthetics!"

"..."

Unlike film critics who use gorgeous words to express their feelings, ordinary audiences who have watched "Project A", "A Hero" and "The Best Partner Shows Their Powers" generally only use the simplest words to express their feelings. Express your feelings. For example: "Project A" is good, "The Best Partner Shows Its Magical Powers" is also good, but the best is "True Colors of Heroes"!
