In the summer of 1993, "Jurassic Park" began to sweep Europe and South America.√∟,
Some people once estimated that the global box office of "Jurassic Park" is likely to exceed 700 million. At that time, many people did not believe it. But just entering July, Europe has given a set of perfect data, "Jurassic Park"
The global box office has approached the US$900 million mark.
In early August, the box office of "Jurassic Park" successfully reached 900 million, and the whole world was excited. This is a terrifying box office record.
According to the agreement before filming, James Cameron, as the assistant director, received 80 million U.S. dollars. Kang Jianfei was extremely generous this time.
It’s not that Kang Jianfei has too much money to spend, but that Cameron contributed a lot when making this movie, and he deserves 80 million US dollars. You must know that in another time and space, Spielberg received 250 million US dollars.
, that is the real cruelty.
Hong Kong's "South China Morning Post" reported: "The huge success of "Jurassic Park" has made Kang Jianfei's position as Hong Kong's richest man more stable. In addition to the global box office of US$900 million, the peripheral income of "Jurassic Park" is also an astronomical figure.
It is reported that the first "Jurassic Park" toy production line has been put into production, and the movie theme park in Brunei is also making money day by day. "Jurassic Park" has already earned US$20 million just by selling global TV broadcast rights.
Income and movie and video sales have exceeded 100 million...Mr. Kang's personal assets are likely to exceed 5 billion US dollars, or even more."
Even Kang Jianfei himself does not know his net worth, but including various investments in mainland China, Japan, and various properties and real estate in Hong Kong, it exceeds 6 billion US dollars.
Hong Kong's major media have reported that the video tape of "Jurassic Park" has once again sold out like crazy. Other film production companies have seen it. They are jealous and jealous, but it is a pity that this kind of film cannot follow suit. The most they can do is
Can add various Jurassic Park jokes to the new film to attract audiences.
It was during this wave of public opinion that Kang Jianfei's new film "The Sixth Sense" was finally released. Film producers from Europe, America and Asia, like asking bloody sharks, came to ask for "The Sixth Sense".
They were all stimulated by the box office record of "Jurassic Park".
…
The Cadillac bulletproof car was parked in the underground garage. Kang Jianfei put on a sun hat and sunglasses and took Sakai Izumi's little hand to get out of the car.
Izumi Sakai seemed to find Kang Jianfei's outfit funny, pulling on the brim of his hat and saying, "Do I need to wear sunglasses too?"
Kang Jianfei scratched the tip of her nose and said with a smile, "Put it on, it's a couple's style."
Izumi Sakai actually put on a pair of sunglasses, and the two walked to the elevator arm in arm.
Since her singles and albums sold out at the beginning of the year, Izumi Sakai has become a well-known female singer in Japan. She released two singles in a row in the first half of the year, both with sales exceeding 1 million.
Ai Hui Music was planning to release a new album to her, but Sakai Quansui missed Kang Jianfei so much that he dropped his work and quietly ran to Hong Kong without even saying hello.
After the elevator reached the first floor, the elevator was immediately filled with the influx of people, and both Kang Jianfei and Sakai Quanshui were pressed against the walls of the elevator.
"Ajian, are you coming to watch a movie too?"
"Yes, I came here with my girlfriend."
"I heard that "The Sixth Sense" is a ghost movie. Be careful not to scare your siblings."
"Even if it's a ghost movie, Director Kang's shots will definitely look better than others."
"Of course, "Jurassic Park" has a box office of 7 billion (converted into Hong Kong dollars). It ranks first in the world at the box office. Which director in Hong Kong can do it?"
"..."
Many people were talking in the elevator. Most of the chats were related to "The Sixth Sense". The big news that "Jurassic Park" had a global box office of over 900 million US dollars really saved a lot of publicity for Kang Jianfei's new film.
Kung Fu. Most moviegoers come here for the director’s name.
This summer, all major film companies are worried about the box office not reaching their expected targets. However, "The Sixth Sense" has attracted a huge number of viewers. This is not only related to the reputation Kang Jianfei has accumulated over the years, but also due to the mentality of following the herd.
Just like "Fast and Furious 7" in another time and space, with the gimmick and hype of Paul's legacy, the audience flocked to the cinema to watch it like a duck. Many people in China did not know Paul before, but they ran away because of the herd mentality.
Go join in the fun, it’s fake for these people to watch movies, it’s real to take photos and act cool and post them on WeChat to show off.
This is why "The Sixth Sense" was so popular when it was first released. A new film by an international director is released, so why not give it a sneak peek?
Izumi Sakai couldn't understand Chinese and didn't know what these people were talking about. When she got out of the elevator and came to the cinema, she saw the long queue for tickets and exclaimed: "Hong Kong people love watching movies so much!"
Kang Jianfei pointed to the "The Sixth Sense" poster on the wall and said, "Because this is my new film."
Izumi Sakai asked: "They all came to watch "The Sixth Sense"?"
"Of course." Kang Jianfei said pretentiously.
The reserved ticket in Kang Jianfei's hand was naturally the best seat. He took a seat with a soda and popcorn in his hands, and waited until the lights in the theater went out before taking off his sunglasses and hat.
While waiting for the movie to show, Sakai Quan Shui, who was passionate about rape, took the initiative to pull Kang Jianfei into a kiss. The Quan Shui girl's kissing skills improved very quickly. Her flexible lilac tongue defended and counterattacked from time to time, and she took the initiative to put it into Kang Jianfei's mouth for him to taste.
.
The sound of the two people's passionate kiss could be heard through two or three rows of seats, and the surrounding audience looked sideways. There were also some young lovers who were infected by them, and after several provocations, they all hugged each other and licked each other.
stand up.
What a pity for those singles in the theater who have to suffer this torture even though they are watching a ghost movie!
At the beginning of the film, the couple played by Huang Qiusheng and Liu Jialing were drinking and celebrating in front of a certificate, and then there was an intimate scene that lasted for half a minute.
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, and the psychiatrist played by Anthony Wong was shot by the patient he had given up on.
The first 30 minutes of the film progress slowly, as a psychiatrist wants to cure a child's mental illness. Audiences who watch the film carefully with their brains will naturally notice the various hints and suspense in the film, and are very much looking forward to the plot that will happen next;
Audiences who are accustomed to watching martial arts movies and comedies are beginning to become a little impatient.
For viewers who are accustomed to popcorn movies, "The Sixth Sense" is really boring. It has to be drama but not drama, it has to be funny but not funny, it has to be scary but not scary. Everyone screams that they have been fooled, thinking that they are being cheated.
Kang Jianfei tricked him into entering the cinema.
Finally, after it was revealed that he could see ghosts, the pace of the whole movie picked up speed, and the audience who were about to doze off sat up straight and stared at the big screen.
In the film, the scene of mother and daughter, played by Chung Chu Hong and Cai Zhuoyan, hugging each other tightly moved many viewers in the cinema. Just when everyone thought the film was over, Huang Qiusheng suddenly returned home and found that the wedding ring on his ring finger was missing.
.
"It turns out that doctor was dead from the beginning!"
"Ever? Many people still think they are alive after they die."
"It turns out it's full of ghosts from beginning to end. Just now you said this movie was boring. There wasn't even a ghost in the film for half an hour."
"That's not right. If the doctor in charge was a ghost, how could he communicate with the little girl's mother?"
"There was no communication, they never spoke from the beginning to the end."
"..."
The plot reversal at the last moment of the film gave the audience a big surprise. Few people could have expected the ending. And when all the mysteries were solved, the suspense and doubts in the previous film were suddenly revealed, which made people understand.
The audience was hooked.
According to Hong Kong law, Hong Kong films must have bilingual subtitles in Chinese and English, so although Izumi Sakai cannot understand Cantonese, it does not prevent her from understanding the movie through subtitles.
After the movie ended, Izumi Sakai said with admiration: "Jianfei-kun, you have created another very powerful and excellent work. You see, everyone likes it so much, and the discussion is so lively."
Kang Jianfei heard a round of applause mixed with some harsh comments.
"What a lousy movie, a waste of my movie tickets."
"I almost fell asleep while watching it. Is this also called a ghost movie?"
"Kang Jianfei doesn't know how to make movies anymore. This movie is so ugly!"
"..."
Hong Kong is a world of commercial films. If a film with a slightly literary style like "The Sixth Sense" is made by another director, it is estimated that there is a high possibility that it will be a blockbuster. (To be continued...) u
