In March 1982, "Shaolin Temple" starring Li Lianjie was released in Singapore, breaking Singapore's box office record for decades and earning a terrifying box office of 1.7 million Singapore dollars (approximately more than 1.5 million US dollars).
After the news reached Hong Kong, the eyes of Hong Kong filmmakers were red. Although the Hong Kong dollar has been appreciating in the past year or so, 1.7 million Singapore dollars is still almost equivalent to nearly 10 million Hong Kong dollars.
Not only that, the average ticket price in the mainland is 10 cents. In the few months since its release, "Shaolin Temple" has actually accumulated more than 60 million yuan in box office, and it continues to be a hit.
The Great Wall Film Company, which filmed "Shaolin Temple", once again became famous, but it did not make any money, and it was all collected directly by the Mainland Ministry of Finance. Great Wall did not dare to complain, because they have received a lot of financial support from the Mainland over the years.
Otherwise it would have closed down long ago.
However, "Shaolin Temple" encountered trouble when it was released in the Philippines and Malaysia. Local Buddhist groups believed that the scene in "Shaolin Temple" in which monks eat dog meat was a vilification of Buddhism, and they strongly protested against this. Immediately afterwards, the opposition of Buddhist groups spread to
In the entire Nanyang region, "Shaolin Temple" had to cut out nine places before it could finally be released in these countries and regions.
The popularity of "Shaolin Temple" in Nanyang has brought good opportunities to "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng".
Oriental DreamWorks' distribution method has a strong bitch style. Whenever "Shaolin Temple" sells well in a place, DreamWorks will sell "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" and release it immediately.
For example, in Singapore, "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" sold an incredible box office of more than 12 million Hong Kong dollars, which was actually higher than the box office of "Shaolin Temple" itself.
Kang Jianfei was also surprised when he heard this data, because in a parallel space, the box office record set by "Shaolin Temple" in Singapore has never been broken, and now it has been broken by "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng".
In fact, the reason is very simple. Because Singaporeans have just watched "Shaolin Temple" and are very curious about everything in the mainland. And when the local theater company promoted Li Lianjie, it made the local audience think that this is another mainland movie.
The film was shot in Wudang Mountain.
Just from the perspective of film shooting standards, "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" is much higher than "Shaolin Temple". After all, there is a ten-year gap between the two movies, and martial arts movies have already matured by the time of "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng". Because of this, "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng"
In Xinjiapo, I followed the trend of "Shaolin Temple". However, the box office exceeded "Shaolin Temple".

When "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" was selling well in Southeast Asia, Taiwanese director Zhu Yanping also went to Hong Kong and wanted to invite Lin Qingxia to return to Taipei to film "Pink Corps".
Regarding Zhu Yanping, what impressed Kang Jianfei the most was not the "Slam Dunk" and "Laughing River" directed by him, but "The Tomb" starring Jay Chou and Lin Chiling. After the release of this big production, Alyssa Chia lost her job.
Father Wu Dun sells properties to pay off debts, which is really comparable to when Wang Jiawei cheated Deng Guangrong.
Nowadays, Taiwanese movies have begun to decline, but Zhu Yanping is a strange person in Taiwan. It has only been two years since he debuted as a director, but he has shot seven commercial films in a row. Although these seven films sometimes lost money, most of them made a lot of money.
The lack of box office is the main reason why Yang Dengkui approached Zhu Yanping to film.
If you want to use a word to accurately describe Zhu Yanping, then you can call him "Taiwan Wang Jing". This guy's filming style is similar to Wang Jing's. They are fast shooters and business first. Like Wang Jie, Zhang Yusheng is on the screen.
It was his films that became famous, and it was also Zhu Yanping who made Shi Xiaolong and Hao Shaowen famous.
At Lin Qingxia's home. Zhu Yanping took the coffee brought by Lin Qingxia, nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Lin is so polite."
On the sofa on the other side of the living room, Kang Jianfei was drinking tea with his legs crossed and said, "Why doesn't Yang Dengkui come over in person?"
The smile on Zhu Yanping's face faltered. He explained: "Boss Yang is very busy with business, so he asked me to come over and invite Miss Brigitte Lin."
Kang Jianfei put down his tea cup and said to Lin Qingxia: "Qingxia, go get Boss Yang's things."
Lin Qingxia nodded to Zhu Yanping, then walked into the back room to get the script and money.
When Zhu Yanping saw Kang Jianfei staying at Lin Qingxia's house in a grand manner and ordering Lin Qingxia to do things casually, he suddenly felt at ease and knew that the two of them were already lovers as written in the newspaper.
Zhu Yanping is not too old. When he was a boy, he had a crush on the screen goddess Lin Qingxia. Now that he sees his former goddess living with another man, he feels particularly suffocated.
Lin Qingxia quickly took out a lot of Hong Kong dollars and the script. After Kang Jianfei took it, he threw it into Zhu Yanping's arms and said: "Go back and tell Yang Dengkui that if you want to hire someone to make a movie, just bring the contract and hire him openly. Don't give a damn."
Those sneaky and clandestine tricks. I know he has hacked people to death and been imprisoned, but I, Kang Jianfei, have blood on my hands. If he dares to mess around again, let him think about Wang Ke's fate. "
Zhu Yanping swallowed while holding a pile of bundled Hong Kong dollars. Of course he knew who Wang Ke was. The year before last, Wang Ke blackmailed the crew of "The Wrong Ride" and sent director Chen Xunqi to the hospital. As a result, he was arrested more than three months later.
The man had his hands and feet chopped off in the detention center, and now he can only live in bed.
Some people once suspected that Kang Jianfei found someone to do it, but they were never sure because Wang Ke had many enemies and it was impossible to pinpoint who did it.
Now that Kang Jianfei had personally admitted it, Zhu Yanping felt a chill in his chest, fearing that he would not be able to return to Taiwan intact. But Yang Dengkui was not easy to deal with either, so he could only bite the bullet and said with a dry mouth: "
Mr. Kang, Boss Yang is really sincere..."
Kang Jianfei sneered, interrupted him and said: "Yang Dengkui's sincerity is to buy and sell by force? Enough nonsense, if Yang Dengkui is sincere and courageous, he will personally come to Hong Kong with the film contract."
Seeing that he could not persuade Kang Jianfei, Zhu Yanping could only stand up and said: "Miss Lin, Mr. Kang, I'll leave first."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "If you don't want to give it away, just take the money with you."
Zhu Yanping left with a bag of Hong Kong dollars on his back, but he was thinking about how to go back and explain to Yang Dengkui.
After Zhu Yanping left, Lin Qingxia asked with an unhappy face: "A Fei, did you ask someone to chop that Wang Ke?"
Although Wang Ke's case has not been reported in the newspapers in Taiwan, it has spread widely in private, so much so that even Lin Qingxia has heard of it.
Kang Jianfei denied with a smile: "How could it be me? I just scared Zhu Yanping. I have always been against violence. After all, violence cannot solve problems. Only love and communication can make the world a better place."
After listening to Kang Jianfei's nonsense, Lin Qingxia still felt a little unbelievable, but she didn't delve into it further, but warned: "A Fei, you are not allowed to have any contact with people from the gang in the future. Those people are very difficult to deal with."
Kang Jianfei asked: "If you don't deal with them, they won't come to you?"
Lin Qingxia was immediately speechless. Whether in Taiwan or Hong Kong, gangs are a hurdle that cannot be circumvented. Even now, when Kang Jianfei is filming in certain places in Hong Kong, he still has to pay some safety fees to local societies.
Kang Jianfei pulled Lin Qingxia into his arms, kissed her cheek and said, "I'm going to film "Royal Senior Sisters 2" and I'll write the script in two days. You can prepare it."
Lin Qingxia was surprised and said: "Then what if Yang Dengkui really comes to Hong Kong to invite me? The schedule cannot be moved."
Kang Jianfei smiled and said: "Of course he waited first, why should I wait for the man named Yang? But this time I am not the director, I only wrote the script, Zeng Zhiwei will be the producer, and Chen Xunqi will be the director."
Lin Qingxia rolled her eyes at him, turned around and hung Kang Jianfei's neck with her arms and said, "My joy was in vain. I thought you were going to film the movie yourself."
Kang Jianfei flicked Lin Meiren's face with his fingers and said, "Why, do you really want to act in the play I direct?"
Lin Qingxia laughed and said: "I'm so sentimental, it's not fun at all to film with you."
Kang Jianfei sighed: "Why do I feel that someone is talking duplicity?"
Lin Qingxia stopped joking with him, leaned into Kang Jianfei's arms and asked, "Then what movie are you planning to make?"
"Hero movie." Kang Jianfei replied with a smile.
Lin Qingxia asked with some confusion: "What is a hero movie?"
"A hero movie is a hero movie. You'll know it after it's made." Kang Jianfei didn't bother to explain, but what he was thinking about was who should Wu Yusen, who had become a box office poison, cry to if he shot "A Better Tomorrow" first.
, I guess Director Wu has been immersed in it for two or three more years.
"I know, you are going to make a new type of film, isn't it, my director from UConn?" Lin Qingxia was joking, but she was quite proud in her heart, because her man is a unique talent.
.
"The one who knows me is Qingxia! How about we have an in-depth exchange of ideas now?" Kang Jianfei got confused as he spoke, picked up Lin Qingxia and ran to the bedroom.
Lin Qingxia was held by Kang Jianfei, waving her arms and legs wildly, struggling with a smile: "Bad guy, it's still broad daylight, can you not do that kind of thing?"
Kang Jianfei pushed Lin Qingxia onto the bed and said with a smile: "There is no time for this kind of thing. Of course, I do it whenever I feel like it."
Lin Qingxia laughed and scolded: "The thoughts are dirty and obscene."
Kang Jianfei kissed Lin Meiren's small mouth, reached out between her legs and gently caressed and rubbed her. After a long time, he took out his hand and laid it down in front of Lin Qingxia. He pointed at the crystal liquid on it and said, "Let's see who is more obscene?"
Lin Qingxia's cheeks turned red with embarrassment. She closed her eyes and turned her head aside to ignore him. But soon she couldn't bear the teasing and took the initiative to hug Kang Jianfei and kiss him. Feeling the hot hard object at the base of her leg, Lin Qingxia took the initiative to lift it up*
*Welcome, holding Kang Jianfei's waist between his legs, and trembling with a drunken expression: "Little rascal, please be gentle, I'm going to be broken by you." 8
