Rebirth of the Thousand-Faced Movie King

Chapter 378: A legend of a generation! ! !

[Swordsman PK Harry Potter. 】

[Swordsman broke the single-day box office record in Hong Kong. 】

[Hollywood has suffered a setback, but Hong Kong movies are still a treasure. 】

[The hope of the whole village, Chen Ping is domineering and a god. 】

When it comes to Chen Ping's status in Hong Kong, it was achieved step by step.

Previously, Chen Ping was just an ordinary actor in Xiangjiang.

Although he later became slightly famous, he was only a slightly famous star.

but.

When the movies starring Chen Ping break the Hong Kong box office charts time and time again, people can no longer underestimate Chen Ping's influence.

The Chinese Ghost Story played by Chen Ping has exceeded 100 million box office, and Chen Ping has become a god.

But even so.

Chen Ping's journey to becoming a god has not stopped.

After A Chinese Ghost Story, God of Gamblers went one step further and reached a box office of 150 million.

And now.

Although the total box office of Swordsman has not been released yet, the box office of 20 million in a single day is enough to make the whole of Hong Kong excited again.

"I want to say that Swordsman will definitely be able to destroy Harry Potter."

"I feel so too."

"Although I know that Harry Potter has great potential,...in Xiangjiang, Chen Ping is a myth."

As the hope of the whole village.

Countless spectators paid close attention to Chen Ping.

subsequent time.

Almost every time they have free time, they are setting box office records.

“Swordsman, Xiaoao Jianghu will continue to lead the next day.”

"Well, I see it, keep working hard and keep it up until the end."

"come on……"

A large number of movie fans cheered for Swordsman.

At the same time, those friends who have not watched Swordsman are also infected by the atmosphere of countless movie fans.

"Give me your support and watch Xiaoao Jianghu take off."

"Ok, I don't usually watch movies, but this time I support Swordsman."

"Harry Potter is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He still has a lot of stamina. Brothers, who is willing to give it a second try?"

"I come……"

Staring at the box office, many movie fans are actually a little worried.

Harry Potter is not only a Hollywood blockbuster, but also a super big IP.

The Harry Potter book has already become popular all over the world.

So.

Many Harry Potter fans will go to the cinema for the first time.

So everyone can see it later.

Although Swordsman continues to lead the box office, Harry Potter's potential is still huge.

Who knows when, Harry Potter might overtake him.

only.

Today is different from the past.

If before Swordsman, this might have been possible.

but……

At this time when Xiangjiang movie fans are united, Swordsman has become the hope in the hearts of countless people.

"Brothers, actually I want to reveal a secret to you?"

"What secret?"

"It's possible... Swordsman will be Chen Ping's last film in Hong Kong."

"Damn it, I can't."

"I don't think so. But...you can take a look. After Chen Ping finished filming Swordsman in Hong Kong, he has no more works in Hong Kong. Although many big names have invited Chen Ping, for example Tsui Hark wants to invite Chen Ping was filming A Chinese Ghost Story 2, and Wang Jing wanted to ask Chen Ping to film the God of Gamblers series... but Chen Ping refused."

"Didn't Chen Ping go to Hollywood?"

"Yes...but there is a question. What if Chen Ping never returns to Hong Kong after going to Hollywood?"

"It shouldn't be possible. Look at Chen Long, Jet Li... they went to Hollywood, but they would also go back to Hong Kong to film."

"That's because Chen Long and Jet Li are very ordinary in Hollywood...if they become Hollywood superstars, it will be difficult for them to come back."

Say this.

Everyone felt a little heavy in their hearts.

Naturally, they didn't dare to tell Chen Ping not to go to Hollywood.

After all, when people go to higher places, who doesn’t want to go further?

Although Xiangjiang is also very attractive, it is still too small.

It's only natural that Chen Ping would go to Hollywood.

certainly.

This is actually nothing.

There is no conflict between filming in Hollywood and returning to Hong Kong.

But.

When it comes to Chen Ping, that's not the case.

Judging from Chen Ping's resume in recent years, he is simply a myth.

Even if Chen Ping goes to Hollywood, countless movie fans feel that Chen Ping will definitely conquer Hollywood.

Yes.

Ever since Chen Ping became a god, countless movie fans have had this kind of confidence in Chen Ping.

"Okay, even if you are right, what does this mean?"

"Didn't you find it?"

"What did you find?"

"If Swordsman is Chen Ping's last film in Hong Kong, then we probably won't be able to compete with Hollywood in the future."

As soon as this sentence came out, countless people were stunned for a while before they woke up.

They understand.

In fact.

With the current situation of Xiangjiang Film, it is impossible for him to compete with Hollywood.

And now being able to PK is entirely because of Chen Ping.

If there is no Chen Ping.

So in the future, Hollywood will continue to sweep across Hong Kong.

"Okay, I understand. Brothers, it depends on this time whether our Xiangjiang Film can show its prestige."

"Well, I may never have another chance in the future."

"I understand, so...brothers, let's go out with a smile."

at this moment.

All hopes are placed on Xiaoao Jianghu and Chen Ping.

they know.

If they miss this time, they may never be able to witness the glory of Hong Kong movies in their lifetime.

…

"Mr. Sam, I never expected that such a dark horse would appear in the Xiangjiang area."

"This is not a dark horse, this is a phenomenal work in Xiangjiang."

"But, Mr. Sam, don't worry, I took a look and analyzed the data. Although Xiaoao Jianghu is temporarily ahead, our Harry Potter potential has not been fully released. This is a super big IP, and many citizens are It’s about dragging the whole family to the cinema.”

"That's our only advantage."

Sam nodded.

Although there have been some setbacks, the overall situation is still good.

Hollywood's ability to attract money cannot be competed with by certain films.

only.

Just when Sam felt that Harry Potter would definitely surpass Swordsman at the box office in the near future.

did not expect.

It has been 10 days since Swordsman was released, but it has once again exploded.

"25 million."

Looking at the latest box office figures, Sam couldn't believe it.

"Twenty-five million box office, is it real or fake?"

"This must have been brushed."

The box office of 20 million on the first day is already terrifying, but it can even rise later.

To know.

Under normal circumstances, most of the time, the box office is the highest on the opening day.

Subsequent single-day box office sales mostly declined as the release cycle lengthened.

But it has been 10 days since it was released.

The box office of Swordsman was only 13 million the day before, but now it has jumped to 25 million.

"Check the authenticity of this data."

Staring at the data, Sam felt that there were some losers on the Xiangjiang side.

They were worried that Xiangjiang Film would be overwhelmed by Hollywood, so they adopted other methods.

This makes sense.

After all, every place will have certain protection measures.

Even if they are in Hollywood, the same is true.

But it's a pity.

For once Sam was wrong.

Xiangjiang did not adopt any protective measures this time.

If we want to talk about protection.

That is when all the people in Hong Kong spontaneously walked into the cinema.

…

I don’t know who said it, but this may be Chen Ping’s last film in Hong Kong...

Those friends who had not entered the cinema before were finally unable to sit still.

"With a box office of 25 million, you guys are really impressive."

"That's right. I originally wanted to go see it in a few days, but I took a day off today. I want to say, Chen Ping, cheating."

"Hollywood also said that we were cheating on tickets... That's right, we were just cheating on tickets, and 2 people just passed by."

"Hahaha, they can't afford to lose. Otherwise, you guys should follow along. 3 brushes pass by..."

"The one who brushed 4 said nothing."

"The 5 brushes are still going on."

"10 brushes are bubbling..."

From 2 brushes to 10 brushes at a time... there is naturally some blowing here.

Even if there are people who do this, it is only a small part.

But that doesn't matter.

At this moment, this is Chen Ping's last film in Hong Kong... This topic has inspired the aspirations of all Hong Kong citizens.

they know.

If they don't go into the cinema this time, then they may never be able to see the grand spectacle of Hong Kong movies again in their lives.

"On the 20th, Swordsman's box office was 17 million, and Harry Potter's box office was 13 million."

"On the 21st, Swordsman has a box office of 15 million and Harry Potter has a box office of 12 million."

"On the 30th day, Swordsman has a box office of 5 million, Harry Potter has a box office of 3 million..."

The battle was extremely fierce.

Harry Potter has always been clinging to Swordsman.

but……

finally.

Swordsman grossed 350 million, beating Harry Potter with 250 million.

At the same time.

Swordsman once again broke the Hong Kong movie box office record.

This record here.

It is no longer local to Xiangjiang, but includes all movies released in Xiangjiang.

at this moment.

The Swordsman... is really like his name, the real Swordsman.

…

"Chen Ping, are you going back to the mainland?"

"Well, there is a TV series in the Mainland that wants me to act in it."

"Oh my God... If you don't act in a lot of movies in Xiangjiang and go back to acting in TV series, you are getting worse and worse."

"Hahaha……"

After receiving a call from Tsui Hark, Chen Ping said: "I think TV series have the advantages of TV series, and movies also have the advantages of movies. Although movies look high-end, not everyone can enter the cinema. Although watching TV series It sounds low-end, but its spread is still very wide. Moreover, the most accessible thing for ordinary people is TV series."

This is what Chen Ping figured out when he was an actor.

now.

Chen Ping thought more clearly.

If you want to open up the mainland market, just acting in movies is not enough.

In the field of TV dramas, there are also many achievements.

This is also the reason why Chen Ping will make the first part of "A Man on the Road" available for free on various platforms.

When this kind of communication reaches a certain range, the audience of the movie will naturally become larger.

"Okay... your ideas are always different from others. However, it will be a few days later."

"Director Xu, I have something else to do... I really don't have time to film in Xiangjiang."

"I'm not asking you to film. You forgot, there will be an important award ceremony in Xiangjiang in a few days."

"Awards?"

"I thought you forgot."

"I forgot, but I haven't forgotten, it's just..."

Chen Ping hesitated for a while.

It reminded him of those days.

When he came to Hong Kong, Chen Ping dreamed of winning a gold medal.

but now.

Facing this Academy Award, Chen Ping looked at it indifferently.

Although the Academy Awards have not started yet, and the list has not been announced yet.

But Chen Ping is sure.

With his current fame and status...he will never be able to escape this award.

"What, you're not interested in the Academy Awards anymore?"

"Not really."

Chen Ping shook his head: "The main thing is... you also know that it may be impossible for me to go to Xiangjiang to film in the future. When I leave, I want to win another award, right..."

If he had said this normally, I'm afraid Tsui Hark would have said, "How do you know you will definitely win the prize? Are you too arrogant?"

but now.

basically……

If Chen Ping doesn't win the award, I'm afraid we have to consider whether the Academy Awards are necessary.

So Tsui Hark quickly said: "You, you, what nonsense thoughts. It seems that you have done something sorry to the people of Hong Kong. It is too late for everyone to thank you. You don't know that your status in the hearts of Hong Kong movie fans is very high." There is no limit. Even if Chen Long comes, he probably won’t be able to compete with you at this moment. As for whether you can go to Xiangjiang to film in the future... who can force this matter? Moreover, aren’t all the series of films you have made before? Was it filmed in Xiangjiang? In other words, giving you a trophy when you leave is also the best wishes for your future from Xiangjiang fans."

"Okay, I will definitely go when the time comes."

Having said this, Chen Ping still has no reason not to go.

…

Three days later.

The annual Hong Kong Film Awards are held at the Hong Kong Coliseum Stadium.

As the largest film award in Hong Kong.

It is also the most famous film award in Asia.

The Hong Kong Film Awards have a pivotal position and unparalleled popularity.

Although Hong Kong movies have declined significantly for a period of time.

But in the past year or two, Hong Kong movies have regained their former glory.

So.

This year's Hong Kong Film Awards is more sensational than any previous one.

"Brothers, are you watching the live broadcast of the Academy Awards?"

"Look at it, this is the biggest first-award film event in Hong Kong in recent years. How could you miss it?"

"Yes, Xiangjiang Film has really established its own prestige this year, even Hollywood has been beaten to its knees. Just thinking about it makes me feel proud."

"Although I am from the Mainland, the Hong Kong Film Awards has nothing to do with the Mainland. However, Chen Ping is from the Mainland."

"Hey, brother, what are you talking about? The mainland of Xiangjiang is one family."

"Hahaha, that's right."

At this time, the number in the live broadcast room has exceeded 10 million.

This is just the beginning.

Every second, thousands of viewers come into the live broadcast room.

certainly.

As they entered, a series of topics were also swirling.

"Brothers, which film do you think will be the biggest winner at this year's Academy Awards?"

"There is no doubt that he will definitely be proud of himself."

"I also think that Swordsman's box office record of breaking 300 million yuan may not be broken by Hong Kong in the next ten years."

"Hahaha, it seems that Xiaoao Jianghu is the biggest winner."
