    In 1988, from the beginning of the first war, glory was destined to belong to the Dragon Film Company, and the performance of the Dragon Film Company also left everyone stunned. It seemed that the accumulated power of the Dragon Film was suddenly used this year.  It broke out. First, Dragon Clan's Hotel Eight Immortals suddenly earned more than 31 million yuan at the box office, and then a small production, Ghost Hunters Co., Ltd., although the score was only more than 7 million, it was also ranked in the schedule at that time.  in second place.

    Next is the time for everyone to get excited. The Spring Festival period that major film companies are chasing is also the time of year when the box office explodes. In this month of competition, the Dragon Clan once again shows off its power, a God of Gamblers  But all of a sudden, the image of Xiao Ma Ge and Chuan Chuan Zhi, which had been deeply imprinted in everyone's minds, was changed. In particular, Zhou Runfa added a classic image to the screen, the God of Gambling, Gao Jin, although the popular one is still  A black windbreaker, but this time the hair wax is out of stock, and everyone on the street is a man in black with his hair bare.

    The box office of 39 million is another miraculous number. It is not only the best result of Dragon Clan in the Hong Kong film industry, but also the best result of Hong Kong movies in history. Although this movie did not end well in the end.  It's not completely finished, and it's still being screened in some theaters at midnight, but it's impossible to break the 40 million mark.

    However, although he failed to create an incredible myth, such a number was enough to make Fatty Wang jump for joy. This guy was so excited that he started a crazy party in his villa for three days in a row. Now he not only saw through three thousand  Ten thousand, but almost over forty million. He is also the first box office grosser of Hong Kong movies, surpassing the original box office champion A Better Tomorrow by more than three million, and making A Better Tomorrow the third highest grosser among Hong Kong movies. Yes, that¡¯s right.  the third.

    Because of this big explosion, it¡¯s not just God of Gamblers that¡¯s crazy, there¡¯s also a movie that also involved Chow Yun-fat, which is also a huge success, and that¡¯s New Art City¡¯s The Good News.  This movie maintained a strong momentum at the beginning, and finally earned more than 37 million at the box office. The gap with God of Gamblers was only less than 2 million, making it the second highest-ranking movie in Hong Kong film history so far.  The video is worth mentioning.  The top three films on the Hong Kong box office rankings now.  They were all starred by Zhou Runfa, which made Shen Xianfa the well-deserved king, and his salary quickly exceeded 10 million, becoming the king of the box office.

    And in the big explosion during the Spring Festival.  These two films are not the only ones that are successful. The Flying Dragon, which was co-produced by Chen Long, Sanmao Ge and Yuan Biao, also broke through 30 million without any surprise, reaching a box office of 33 million.  Although he is not as evil as the first film "Rich and Rich", it still has a box office of 25 million.  As for Yong Sheng's "Red Lips", although it is slightly insufficient compared to these movies, more than 13 million is considered a very good result under the compression of several such super high box office movies, and Jet Li's "Chinese Heroes" is not as good as them.  In comparison, it is slightly insufficient. The box office of 11 million is not bad, but it is slightly insufficient compared to the big scene of this movie and the huge investment. It does not meet their expectations.

    It is worth mentioning that.  In addition to these films, in the middle of the Spring Festival, more than a week after these films were released, Love Deserter by Yi Neng Pictures Co., Ltd., a company founded by several filmmakers, was also released.  Although it has only been established for less than two years and has not produced many movies, it is a company that many insiders are optimistic about, and Yan Xu knows it very well.  Before 1997, this film company was one of the major film companies in Hong Kong and produced many popular films.  This is a love deserter.  Although it is a low-budget romance film, the cast is anything but ordinary. In addition to the principal, a popular singer, there are also many familiar faces joining the cast. Therefore, in such a fierce battlefield, its box office continues to rise.  , with a box office of nearly 15 million, far exceeding the box office of The Red Lips.

    In such a period, the total box office of 175 million was more than 30% higher than the same period last year, which also made more and more filmmakers and businessmen use their brains.  , of course there are also some community figures.

    And back to Dragon Film Company, after a super high box office of 39 million, Dragon once again released another movie of Fatty Wang, which was the long-running The Courtship Suicide Squad. Fatty Wang is very good at this kind of movie.  Although the shooting time was very short, and Fatty Wang focused on the God of Gamblers, Yan Xu still used his funny methods in chasing girls, and it was released.  On the twenty-first day, with the high popularity generated by God of Gamblers, it suddenly earned more than 14 million at the box office.

    In 1988, in just three months, the Dragon Clan released four movies, which grossed more than 92 million in box office, of which the Dragon Clan could get a share.?More than 37 million. Excluding the various costs of remuneration, filming and publicity, these four films "Dragon" made a profit of more than 18 million in Hong Kong alone.

    More than six million per month is definitely more than many large companies, and this is still part of it for Dragon Company, because the revenue of Dragon Company's movies in Southeast Asia is basically the same as Dragon Company's share in Hong Kong  , especially Yan Xu's movies, can basically earn 20 to 30 million at the box office in Japan alone. Therefore, according to the lowest calculation, the last four films of "Dragon" have earned more than 50 million in Southeast Asia and Hong Kong.  There is no problem.

    With a box office of 50 million in three months, according to such a revenue, it is not a problem for Dragon Company to earn 200 million in profits every year. Coupled with the sales of video tapes and peripherals, these can completely account for the total annual box office of Hong Kong movies.  Quarter.

    With such a momentum, it seems that it wants to take the top spot in the film industry, even catching up with the current giant Jiahe, and has surpassed Debao and Xinyi City.

    After The Suicide Squad, another blockbuster of Dragons was released. The film industry has already reached the off-season in early April. Although it is not as good as Black May, it is still similar. However, the performance of The Suicide Squad completely overturned the off-season concept.  It can be said that in the past two days, nearly 4 million has been recovered at the box office. Breaking 25 million is definitely not a problem, and this film has become the fourth film released by Zhou Runfa this year, because  In addition to the Eight-Star Announcement and God of Gamblers, in March, New Art City also released Tiger Out, shot by Zhou Runfa. Although this work produced by Mecca has not yet been released, it has already received 25 million yuan.  The box office.
