Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Xianxia vs. Xianxia, ​​special effects vs. special effects. It can be said that "New Shushan Swordsman" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are a tit-for-tat competition.

Both dramas are about heroes and special effects.

But it is obvious that "Legend of Sword and Fairy", which has a mass base, has a lot of advantages in this regard.

Putting aside the special effects and plot, in these two dramas, the emotional drama is obviously a very important part.

But the difference is that there are very few emotional scenes in "New Shushan Swordsman", and you can only see some of them in Ding Yin and the Lord of the Fairy Castle.

But the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" on the other side is completely different.

Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, and Lin Yueru, the love-hate drama of the three has always been the focus of the audience's attention.

From novels to movies, what everyone wants to see most is the love-hate entanglement between the three of them.

This is also one of the most important reasons why "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is so popular.

After the premiere, the next day, the ratings of TVB and ATV's broadcast of the premiere were also released. The final result was fifty to thirty-six.

If you didn't know, you would have thought that it was TVB that got the 50, and TVB's ratings have always been higher than those of ATV.

But this time, TVB actually lost to ATV, and even won by a full fourteen points, which made Fang Yihua very unhappy.

"Although both plays were novels first and then made into movies, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" obviously has many more readers than "New Shushan Swordsman".

"And this time, Lin Daoqiu found many celebrities to support the show, and it is normal to beat us by 14 points."

Li Tiansheng's analysis can be said to be no different from the facts.

"If you look at it this way, the box office of "New Shushan Swordsman" may be in danger."

Fang Yihua didn't like either Jiahe or Lin Daoqiu.

However, it is inevitably a bit childish to be able to judge the box office of the two dramas just from the ratings of this broadcast premiere.

At the same time, on the other side of the ATV, there was already a scene of laughter and laughter.

When Huang Xizhao and a group of supervisors held a morning meeting, they even mentioned the ratings of last night's broadcast of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" at the meeting.

After all, ATV has always been under pressure from TVB. It is rare that it has defeated the other party in broadcasting, and it has also won more than half of the ratings. It is really gratifying.

"It would be great if Mr. Lin could hold a movie premiere every week."

A certain producer on the scene couldn't help but express such emotion.

However, such words are just talk. If Lin Daoqiu really does this, the possibility of always getting more than 50% of the ratings is basically zero.

On the first day when "New Shushan Swordsman" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" were released, there were long queues.

The theaters in good locations along the Jiahe Cinema Line are almost always full, while the theaters in slightly more remote locations can basically fill up to 90% capacity.

It can be said that "New Shushan Swordsman" has made a good start.

As for the "Legend of Sword and Fairy" side, although Zou Wenhuai didn't ask, he could feel that the other party should be at full capacity.

On the second day, the box office results were officially released. On the first day of its release, "New Shushan Swordsman" achieved a box office success of 3.5 million.

This result has already been broken. It is the highest box office performance of Jiahe Cinema on weekdays. Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang both laughed happily because of this.

"By the way, how was the box office performance of "Legend of Sword and Fairy"?"

After listening to the report of "New Shushan Swordsman", Zou Wenhuai began to care about the situation on Lin Daoqiu's side.

"On the first day of its release, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" took in a box office of RMB 2.7 million, which was RMB 800,000 less than us."

It sounds like "New Shushan Swordsman" won on the first day. Logically speaking, Zou Wenhuai should be very happy.

But for some reason, the smile that appeared on his face suddenly slowly disappeared.

Because he had discussed with He Guanchang before that after Golden Harvest bought the Kowloon Cinema Chain.

If the theater is always full, it can get up to close to 4 million box office in a day.

But now, "New Shushan Swordsman" only received 3.5 million at the box office on the first day.

This means that "New Shushan Swordsman" still failed to make Jiahe Cinema truly full.

This is definitely not good news for either Zou Wenhuai or Tsui Hark.

However, outsiders didn't know the difference. Without exception, everyone began to praise the drama "New Shushan Swordsman".

Many people even felt that Lin Daoqiu was likely to be defeated by Tsui Hark this time.

The gap of 800,000 was widened on the first day. You can imagine how difficult it would be to make a comeback.

Moreover, after the movie is released, the box office should continue to decline, and reverse growth is basically unlikely to happen.

Now we have to see which one of the two dramas, "New Shushan Swordsman" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy", has fallen the fastest.

"Old Xu, there is nothing to worry about. We will definitely win this time."

Shi Tian and Eric Tsang pulled Tsui Hark out of the office and found a place to have afternoon tea.

"This thing is really uncertain. Until the last moment, who can dare to say that he will definitely win Mr. Lin."

Tsui Hark still maintained a very cautious attitude towards this.

Even though "New Shushan Swordsman" had already won 800,000 yuan at the box office of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" on the first day of its release, he still couldn't relax.

"Mr. Lin is just a human being, he is not a god. As long as you are a human being, you will make mistakes sometimes. And you should believe in yourself. Even if you don't believe in yourself, you should also believe in the box office."

Shi Tian felt that Tsui Hark thought of Lin Daoqiu too much, but he felt that Lin Daoqiu would definitely lose this time.

At this moment, Tsui Hark and the others suddenly heard that someone next to them started talking about the two movies "New Shushan Swordsman" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

"Didn't you just watch "New Shushan Swordsman"? What did you think of that show?"

When they heard someone talking about their movie, Tsui Hark and the others immediately stopped talking, then pricked up their ears and began to listen carefully.

"It's just average. The fighting is quite exciting, but the special effects worth tens of millions seem to be nothing more than that. I can't say how magical it is."

For the audience in Xiangjiang at this time, special effects technology had just begun to rise, and it would take many years to achieve the shocking effects of later generations.

"Is that so? I went to see "Legend of Sword and Fairy" yesterday. The special effects in that movie were really amazing, and the scenery inside was just like a landscape painting. It was so beautiful..."
