"If you don't learn acting, how can you get acting skills? I specialize in singing and vocal music, but there are also corresponding acting classes."

"My tutors say that I look a bit ordinary, but if I have fat cheeks in the future, I will still have a lot of opportunities to play supporting roles or green leaves."

When Huang Bo said this, he stared at Jin Chengwu like a quarrel and smiled, "Awu, you can be regarded as one of our juniors on the Good Voice stage. Although the way you became famous is a bit strange and too nonsensical."

"But we can still keep up our efforts and perform more martial arts performances. Maybe one day we will be spotted by the tycoons?"

In this summer's summer season, the blockbuster masterpiece is Zhou Xingxing's (The Mermaid), but in terms of TV, more than 40 episodes of (Water Margin) have been completed and are in post-production, and the third season of the variety show (The Voice of Asia) is still the most watched

Rate.

It's just that after experiencing the peak competition in the first two seasons, the players in this year's competition don't have that many future strongmen.

In the Chinese music scene of similar age groups, almost all the fierce ones were wiped out by the first two sessions.

Just when Huang Bo was at the bar, Wu Jingcai reacted, "No, you're studying for Asian opera after summer vacation? It's only July 9th??"

The Asian Opera term usually starts at the end of August or the beginning of September.

Huang Bo looked at him strangely, "I rented a house in the third phase of Huayuan. I have already planned to start over. I will try to stay in the Hong Kong Island Music Hall more often. I can practice my singing skills more and it can be regarded as a work-study study."

"With your Beijing movie skills, how can you still compete with our Huayuan Phase 3 star Ah Wu? Are you new to the industry? Let's go, let's go, I'll treat you to a movie. Jiahe recently starred in a modern call girl, listen to the name

It’s just curious…”

Wu Jing, "..."

Jin Chengwu, "..."

Ah Wu once again glanced at Huang Bo with disgust, and said to Wu Jing, "Let's go to 100 Years Pictures to have a look and help run errands. He doesn't look serious at first sight."

Whether it is the modern version of the original track or this version, it is a drama that does not miss anything. It is nothing more than a major change of the heroine team in this dimension.

Three beauties, Chen Yalun, Li Meifeng, and Zhong Shuhui, perform the role passionately. Among them, Zhong Shuhui is an Asian opera student who has never been outside the circle. Chen Yalun was also a student of the 1984 Asian opera training class, and was a classmate of Li Ming and Zhou Haimei.

Li Meifeng also debuted in the modern Diao Chan program in 1984.

The movie is not a real romantic movie, but the name of the movie can easily give people a strong sense of misleading upon hearing it.

Ah Wu disliked Huang Bo from the first sight. It was not that he was really fed up with this senior, but that Bo Zi seemed familiar with everyone he met and had a particularly cheerful personality, which made him uncomfortable.

In addition, the other party has repeatedly ridiculed his strange way of becoming famous... Currently, many people who are residents of the third phase of Huayuan know Jin Chengwu. He was deceived by Wang Jiawei to learn martial arts and self-taught acting in order to make a movie. He has been around for 18 months and still hasn't made a film?

This method is indeed too prominent and eye-catching!

When Wu Jingxin and Ah Wu left, Huang Bo, who was holding half a fan of watermelon, was left confused. Did he hear it correctly? Why did Ah Wu go to 100 Years Pictures to help?

Could it be that he has been fooled by this? The matter of teasing Awu for not being able to turn on the phone for so long is about to happen? After the other party endured it for 18 months? (The Grandmaster) is about to turn on the phone??

"No way, Director Sunglasses is such a big trap that I can't just say a few words to improve my moral integrity and regain the lost bottom line!"

………………

It was a new day, July 10th officially arrived. Huang Bo was so excited that he ran to the theater early in the morning to wait for a movie. He watched Zhou Xingxing version (Mermaid) and got into the movie after it started.

The opening scene of the tourist group visiting the museum made the audience unable to stop laughing. Wan Ziliang's guest appearance as the museum director was too bottomless!

When the wealthy Liu Xuan, played by Xing Zai, made his official debut and auctioned a piece of land in Tsing Luo Wan, the auction scene was fierce and he looked like a young boy in suits and ties. Wu Jingyi, who acted as Xing Zai's assistant, appeared.

Huang Bo couldn't help but slapped his thigh, "Fuck, it's that pretty boy from yesterday..."

Wu Jing, that guy with a baby face and a weak look, actually appeared in a Star Master movie? Or was he an important supporting role? Hiroko's big teeth were simply shocked.

Soon, he no longer had time to lament for Wu Jing.

The plot officially kicked off, and there was a dinner after the filming session, in front of a large single-family villa nestled between the mountains and the sea. The yard was as luxurious as a parking lot.

A big red supercar drove into the villa courtyard like Lola Fanna's drift car in (Wanted 1). Liu Ruolan, the second-generation rich woman played by Liu Xiaoli, got out of the car.

Then to the murderous costume showing off the perfect figure, paired with the classic soundtrack of "Hello World", the movie suddenly feels high-end.

It feels like there is a strong character coming out of the big screen.

When a group of black suits were running to clear the way for the wealthy Fourth Master played by Xu Ke, a vintage car that looked very contemporary also made Xu Ke, who deliberately dyed his hair white, look particularly rich and tycoon.

Then, the audience, immersed in the atmosphere of a high-end wealthy family, was directly dropped from the sky by Di Long, who was wearing a leopard-print outfit, gold-rimmed glasses, a Mediterranean hairstyle, and a pesticide-sprayed version of a single-person aircraft on his back, and his remaining hair was blowing wildly.

I can't live without laughing.

As for Di Long's image in this movie, it's really... eye-catching.

The plot of The Mermaid is still the same. The main reason is that the actors have been changed. Zhou Xingxing appears in person, plus the Chinese version of the heroine Chen Derong, and the supporting villain is Liu Xiaoli.

I can only say that after watching the movie, Huang Bo laughed so hard that his stomach ached many times and he couldn't bear it anymore. More viewers had similar reactions. No matter how much people outside imitate or get close to him, if they are not Zhou Xingxing, they will always taste bad.

Even a talent like Xiao Ma, who has been completely free and willing for a year, is nothing more than funny in this field, second only to Chen Baixiang and Li Lichi's sense of joy.

At this stage, Xiao Ma has not only starred in three comedies in a row, but has also completed his junior year in Asian opera!

(Mermaid) is a blockbuster hit, and the explosive power of summer blockbusters is once again in front of everyone. The first weekend of three days in Hong Kong exceeded 17 million Hong Kong dollars, with an average daily revenue of more than 5.7 million, and a box office of 18.9 million Hong Kong dollars in three days.

.

It must be said that the publicity of this movie is also very strong. The required posters, subway bus taxi car body pictures, TV program announcements, and even the trailer are not released at all. They have been pushed out more than ten days in advance.

Not just (Mermaid), but also Pony's previous masterpiece (Fist of Fury 1992), every real blockbuster released at this stage, with basic promotions such as big announcements and releases, are all full.

Otherwise, for example, a movie that is a hit in Europe and the United States, even if it is starring a white man or woman, would not be so popular as soon as it is released.

The announcement is grand enough, so that as many people as possible can see, hear and know about it, so it will attract so much money when it is first released!

Three days in the Mainland, more than 80 million yuan on the first day, 110 million yuan on the second day, more than 90 million yuan on the third day, and a total of 280 million yuan accumulated in the three days!

Stars, Malaysia and Thailand grossed over HK$51 million in three days, South Korea grossed over HK$29 million in three days, and tens of thousands of theaters in the island country grossed over HK$32 million.

Not counting the RMB 280 million from the Mainland, this represents an accumulated total of HKD 147 million in East and Southeast Asia! There is a very interesting thing here, that is, the combination of stars, horses, and Thais, the box office appeal is much stronger than that of the island countries and South Korea alone.

The current total population of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand is less than half of the island country... but it is not surprising, because the entertainment industry in Thailand is more exclusive than South Korea, and there are more than 7 million overseas Chinese in Singapore, Malaysia alone, and they are the richest family in Thailand.

, many of them are also overseas Chinese.

Especially in 1992, the island country's social economy collapsed and its purchasing power plummeted. However, a country with a large population like Thailand was still in the period of rapid growth and prosperity of the Four Asian Tigers.

In South Korea, the total population is only one-third of the island country this year, but the box office difference between the two places is only 3 million Hong Kong dollars!

Europe and the United States are also considered explosive. The three-day opening weekend in North America was US$12.8 million, and Europa was US$9.6 million. The combined sales of the two places exceeded US$22.4 million!

You said Ogame only has US$22.4 million??

Comparing it to the US$20 million or US$30 million first weekend in North America alone, or even comparing it to (Spider-Man 1)'s first weekend US$60 million in North America, is it too shabby?

This is already the best box office record that Zhou Xingxing can achieve in a movie that only has star-style comedy, no kung fu and not many big special effects.

It can only be said that his nonsensical films have been released continuously in Europe and the United States, slowly gaining fans, and Jim Carrey's explosion, one film (Lucky Star) plus another (Weird in Disguise) have attracted more European and American white people to like it.

This type of performance led to Ah Xing's great expansion.

It cannot be said that Zhou Xingxing and Jim Carrey have the same acting styles. They each have their own characteristics and core competitiveness. However, at a quick glance, it is clear that they both rely on exaggerated movements and expressions to rise...

………………

On July 14, Sammo Hung took a car early in the morning and arrived at the filming location of the (Harry Potter 1) crew, which was Tung Chung.

Tung Chung Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!

The special effects models and other preparations started three years ago, including the construction of the Magic Academy. It is a bit far from the Jurassic Theme Park in Tung Chung, and you have to take a car deeper into Lantau Island to reach it.

As blockbusters take the world by storm, the number of related tourist attractions can only be said to be increasing.

At this stage, the Magic Academy complex is definitely not open to the public, and tourism and entertainment projects will only be officially opened after Harry Potter 1 is released.

After getting off the car, I saw several figures approaching from the left and right, and they were also the main creators of the team. For example, Richard Norton, who plays Severus Snape, one of the vice principals, is very familiar with Sanmao.

One of the vice-principals, Minerva McGonagall, is played by Lin Qingxia and Julia Roberts in double versions.

Sanmao couldn't help but sigh, "It's a big hit. The first weekend is only three days. Not counting the mainland, even Wanjia Cinema has entered the island country at this stage. It's 147 million Hong Kong dollars in the first weekend. It's really..."

He, a film industry tycoon who felt that he was about to be eliminated by the tide of the times when the production of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was started, once again experienced the ferocity of blockbusters, and still felt that it felt like he had not seen it for a long time.

The data for East Asia and Southeast Asia in the three days of the first weekend is enough to shock countless people!

Lin Qingxia also had a look of emotion on her face, but she didn't talk about the box office, but asked curiously, "Brother Sanmao, I heard that Zhao Sheng's Pacific VCD players and discs have not made it to Europe and the United States?"

Pacific VCD machines and discs have indeed conquered cities in East and Southeast Asia and created massive wealth, but Europe and the United States...

Sanmao complained speechlessly, "They were boycotted. These are too high-quality and cheap, and may cause Hollywood theater operators and several major film and television groups to put too much extra effort in preventing piracy, so they were boycotted together."

"It's easy here. In the past six months, one or more piracy gangs have appeared from time to time, and then they were quickly beaten to death."

"I would say, judging from the performance of Ah Xing (Mermaid), as long as the film is of high quality and attractive enough, the impact of VCD machines on the box office is not that exaggerated."

This is true. In the original trajectory, Hong Kong movies were impacted by VCD machines and discs, including the loss of local ticket warehouses, and the loss of many financial backers...

While countless people in the Hong Kong film industry have lost their jobs due to a series of comprehensive factors, Chow Sing-sing's movies are still setting box office records at every turn.

Lin Qingxia smiled bitterly, "Those of us who have made more money than we can spend in our lifetime can be regarded as landing early. Poor younger generations are becoming more and more outrageous."

In the original track, even in the era of the Internet, there would be many Hong Kong films whose sources could not be found, and could only be stored on VCD discs or DVD discs, and no one knew which collector was hoarding them.

The situation at this stage will only be more severe.

……………………

On July 18, Zhou Xingxing's "Mermaid" continued to be a hit all over the world. Wu Yusen brought Zhang Jiazhen, Liang Chaowei, Li Zixiong and others to happily raise their glasses, "Master Kai, congratulations to Master Kai (
To be continued...
