Chapter 76 Aren¡¯t records meant to be broken? Zhang Yi¡¯s height has grown a lot over the past year, but he is only just over 1.7 meters tall, which is much shorter than Zhou Billy. Moreover, Zhang Yi only practiced internal martial arts and did not practice external martial arts, so there was nothing outstanding about his appearance. The two stood face to face, obviously not the same weight. However, the competition between the two was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, Zhou Billy was thrown off the ring by Zhang Yi's Tai Chi. Although Zhou Bili stabilized his figure, did not fall, and was not embarrassed at all, there was no doubt that he lost. Zhou Billy was naturally unwilling to accept such a result, but he did not get entangled and agreed to Zhang Yi's invitation. Of course, he didn't accept Zhang Yi's invitation because he lost in the competition. It was Zhang Yi's words just now that moved him. Any smart boxer will think about the path after retirement. Zhou Billy does have the idea of ??opening a martial arts gym, and he also knows that fame from making movies can come faster and more influential than playing games. Of course, this influence is not within the circle, but among ordinary people. But when you open a martial arts gym and recruit disciples, aren¡¯t you dealing with ordinary people? How many people in your circle can you accept? Miura, Zhang Yi breathed a sigh of relief after the villain was cast. As for Sato, another one of the villains who is Miura's lieutenant, Zhang Yi plans to let Yuan Hua play the role. What Zhang Yi valued about Yuanhua was not his skill, but his appearance. As for Jinshan Zhao, Zhang Yi finally has an ideal candidate, and that is Li Yuanba, who starred in "Tiger Revival". Whether it is his physical fitness or the character displayed in it, he is somewhat similar to Jinshan Zhao. As for Master Liao, Zhang Yi found Meng Hai, a member of the Hong Family Gang and one of the leading actors in "Shu Mountain". As for the two brothers Wu Chi Lin and Sha Dan Yuan, Zhang Yi actually found two brothers to play them. Qian Xiaohao plays Wu Chi Lin, Qian Jiale plays Sha Danyuan! Although Qian Xiaohao was approached by the crew of "Mr. Zombie" and the schedules overlapped somewhat, it was not impossible for the two crews to run away, not to mention that Wu Chi Lin didn't have many scenes. And just when Zhang Yi put aside the preparations for the movie "Ip Man" and focused on the promotion of "Crazy Racing", "God of Gamblers" had already exceeded 30 million and headed straight for 40 million. Entering 1984, one month after its release, "God of Gamblers" directly broke the box office record of "Nightclub" with a box office of more than 41 million, becoming the highest-grossing film in Hong Kong. "Ayi, I broke your record! Hahahahaha! I am the only one among the top four in the Hong Kong box office list, and the total box office exceeds 100 million! Haha!" When the box office of "God of Gamblers" broke the box office of Zhang Yi's "Nightclub" ¡·box office, Fatty Wang laughed wildly in front of Zhang Yi, very proud. "Fat man, calm down. Aren't records meant to be broken? Is there something there to show off? You're so excited that you're going crazy. That's all you can do! Three of the top four box office films in Hong Kong were made by you. Are all four scripts written by me?" Zhang Yi said with a faint smile. "Oh!" When Fatty Wang heard this, he immediately looked at Zhang Yi and said, "Aren't records meant to be broken? Ayi, are you going to tell me that your "Crazy Racing" has a chance to be broken? "God of Gamblers" record, right? You won't let "God of Gamblers" stay at the top of the box office for two months? " "It's unlikely!" Zhang Yi shook his head, thinking of "Crazy Racing", Zhang Yi didn't end. If that kind of narrative method were accepted by people, maybe it wouldn't be a hit. After all, when "God of Gamblers" was released, it was the same as when "Food Truck" was released. It was basically a one-stop company, and there was no comparable movie to divert the box office. But "Crazy Racing" is different, it's like the Three Kingdoms fighting for hegemony. "Crazy Racer" is still being released in Shaw Brothers Cinemas, and at the same time there are "The Queen's Secret Order" by New Art City, and "Teppanyaki" by Golden Harvest! Needless to say, "The Queen's Secret Service" is the third part of New Art City's "Best Partner" series. Although the first two films were overshadowed by Zhang Yi's movies, it cannot conceal its classics. It also blocks his appeal to the audience. In the parallel world, this movie topped the list in 1984 with a box office of nearly 30 million. "Teppanyaki" is a movie written, directed and acted by Xu Guanwen. In the parallel world, despite competing with the movie "On Her Majesty's Secret Order", it can still achieve a box office of nearly 20 million, ranking first in 1984. No. 6 on the box office list. Still in front of "Plan A". Three movies were released at the same time, and the incident between Zhang Yi and Xinyi City was brought up by the media and became a hot topic. However, Xu Guanwen refused Zhang Yi's invitation and did not appear in "Nightclub". After "Nightclub" became a hit at the box office, he was ridiculed by the media. One line in "Nightclub" was even used by the media. The crown text is more suitable, and the leap hair is also ok! If Xu Guanwen refuses, someone can find a "box office poison" on your behalf.?You! It also sold well at the box office and directly topped the box office list in Hong Kong! Although, Zhang Yi did not hold a grudge against Xu Guanwen's rejection and took the opportunity to be sarcastic as the media said. But three people become tigers, Xu Guanwen naturally thought so unknowingly. In fact, after Xu Guanwen watched "Nightclub", he did regret a little. He regretted not reading the script at the beginning. In fact, the role of He Sanshui was really suitable for him. If he had read the script, he would definitely take it. Now the three of them meet on a narrow road, and are hyped up by the media like enemies meeting, full of gunpowder. Although Zhang Yi has a background in "Nightclub" and is also the screenwriter of several box office hits, the media is not optimistic about Zhang Yi's "Crazy Racing", which he wrote, directed and invested in. Countless media threatened that this film will be It¡¯s Zhang Yi¡¯s ¡°Waterloo¡±. And when the news of Zhang Yi¡¯s preparation for a new film came out, the media directly believed that Zhang Yi himself had no confidence in the film. He started preparing for a new film before the film was released. What does it mean if he didn¡¯t give up on this film? Zhang Yi actually didn¡¯t expect that the three films would be released at the same time by such a coincidence. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? When the coincidence occurred, Zhang Yi more or less guessed it. The three films were released at the same time, but they were just pawns in the competition between the three theaters, Xinyi City, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers. And the grievances between himself, New Art City, and Xu Guanwen were so heated by the media that the three film companies probably contributed a lot behind it. ¡°Perhaps, Xinyi City wants to take this opportunity to defeat Zhang Yi and save some face. Perhaps Xu Guanwen had the same idea, but of course it was possible that he was involuntarily doing so. In Zhang Yi¡¯s film, almost a newcomer plays the leading role, and the box office success is almost entirely due to Zhang Yi. Even Zhou Yunfa, who made a cameo in it, only broke out unexpectedly after "God of Gamblers". But a cameo is a cameo after all. Although Zhang Yi¡¯s box office appeal is strong, Xu Tuanjie and Xu Guanwen¡¯s box office appeal is not weak either. Perhaps the real competition between the three movies is the movie itself. And it is precisely because of this that Zhang Yi has no confidence in whether the audience can accept the narrative method of "Crazy Racing". "Listening to your tone, why do you feel that you really have no confidence? You won't really give up on this movie as the media said, will you? If you lose to those two movies this time, you don't know what those unscrupulous media will do Writing!" Fatty Wang looked at Zhang Yi and said. There was some worry in his tone. "What do you think I should say to those media outlets? I don't care at all whether I compete with those two movies or not. What I care about is how much less money I will make from this movie because three movies compete with each other!" Zhang Yi waved his hand. , said, "Fat man, do you think if "God of Gamblers" competed with those two movies, would the box office be so high?" Fatty Wang thought for a while, and finally shook his head, let alone "God of Gamblers" and those two movies. The movie is released at the same time, even if it is released at the same time as one of them, it is estimated that the box office will not break the record. If excellent movies are released at the same time, the box office will definitely be divided. Wang Jing finally understood why Zhang Yi said that "Crazy Racing" could not break the record of "God of Gamblers". "Hong Kong's market potential is so small, but Hong Kong's film companies are fighting to the death in this market. No matter who wins the box office battle, he will also lose!" Zhang Yi said calmly.
