    Are Japanese actors cheap?  If the comparison is between actors from Hong Kong and Mainland China, the average person would probably have to think about it doubtfully before they would probably answer: Impossible. Japan is the second largest economy in the world. Will its actors be cheap?  But the reality is so cruel. Maybe in the early years, Japanese artists were indeed much taller than those from mainland China. But with the development of China's economy, by the time of 2005 and 2006, both sides, of course, this refers to  In the TV drama market and the movie market, both countries are somewhat weak, and the pay is not too high based on TV dramas.  In comparison, actors in Hong Kong are a bit different. Their low-level actors may not be doing well like the low-level actors in mainland China and Japan. Their wages are only enough for basic needs such as food, renting a house, etc., but at the level of top actors  , Hong Kong has many more actors than mainland China and Japan. This is the precipitation of Eastern Hollywood, but Eastern Hollywood as a whole has irreparably fallen and can only rely on the old bones to hold on.  Although its entire system is still looking for resources from the outside to survive, and the system itself is still operating normally and creating new employees, from the perspective of the entire system, it is heading towards irreversible decline.  ¡° From this point of view, the TV station is the last guarantee for Hong Kong¡¯s entertainment industry. However, in terms of its future destiny, the best fate is to completely integrate into the mainland and become a great provincial and municipal TV station.  Changes in economic status completely determine all this.  However, even if it is crumbling, Hong Kong's entertainment industry still maintains a certain inertia, and its top actors still maintain international influence. They are by no means comparable to TV actors from mainland China and Japan, but there are only a few  Among the top actors, they are only half as good as actors from mainland China and Japan.  In comparison.  Japanese actors seem to be cheap and good-quality, especially those under Queens.  Because capital has always been dominant in the Japanese entertainment industry, Japanese artists have been tamed by capital and become obedient. Even actors like Kimura Takuya work desperately for Johnny without any complaints.  Or just have occasional complaints.  In comparison, the top actors in Hong Kong and Mainland China are as happy as heaven.  Your sister's boss actually agreed to allow his own actors to open their own studios. This is simply the conscience of a capitalist!  Therefore, even if the price is comparable, or even slightly more expensive, using Japanese actors is less troublesome than using mainland actors or Hong Kong actors - of course, this is compared to actors who are already famous.  If they are actors who have not yet made their mark, whether they are from Mainland China, Hong Kong or Japan, let them play no matter how unpalatable roles they appear in movies.  These young people who have not yet emerged will probably accept it seriously without any complaints. This is a certain similarity.  Tomoaki Aonuma's salary is actually not high. When he starred in "The Green Hornet", he received US$500,000, which is equivalent to about 60 million yen. It has been announced that he is the most valuable Japanese actress.  Then in "Memoirs of a Geisha", probably because of Shen Zhenghui's sake, Spielberg gave him a salary of 800,000 US dollars. Japan has already used female stars with over 100 million yuan to mark Tomoaki Aonuma.  But in mainland China, Zhang Ziyi has the same status as Aonuma Tomaaki.  The salary for "The Banquet" has reached 2 million U.S. dollars, at least when it was announced to the public, this was the price. According to the Japanese people's urine, this is already a double crush on Tomoaki Aonuma.  Fortunately, Tomoaki Aonuma was nominated for the Golden Globe for Best Actress and the Oscar for Best Actress for "Memoirs of a Geisha". Of course, they were all accompanying her.  But the B value was severely brushed up, so when it came to "Kung Fu 2", Zhou Xingxing unceremoniously gave the same salary of 2 million US dollars to the film. This was completely generosity to others, but Sony, Kasuga, and Columbia  Very satisfied.  Colombia is because the heroine has enough status.  Sony has always only worried about not being able to spend its budget, not to mention spending it on the Japanese, which is enough to become a topic of hype in Japan. But for Kasuga, it is just money in another hand.  In fact, it¡¯s not just Tomoaki Aonuma. Queen¡¯s actresses were packed into the crew of ¡°Kung Fu 2¡±. Many girls may only appear in a long shot for 1 second and then lose their role, but this does not prevent Queens from taking advantage of this opportunity.  Let your own actresses use this to increase their net worth.  Zhou Xingxing's behavior made many people jealous and resentful, so they bitterly accused Zhou Xingxing of betraying Hong Kong and joining the "Imperial Army."  Star Master did not respond to such comments and began to immerse himself in the film and television city in Puhai and began the filming of "Kung Fu 2".  The preparations were so fast this time, thanks to the blessing of Haruhi, some of the staff who originally participated in the production of "Magic Apprentice" were assigned to the crew of "Kung Fu 2". A large number of Japanese flower girls landed at Puhai Film and Television City, accompanying Zhou Xingxing himself  I started filming and writing scripts at the same time.  At the same time, "Magic Apprentice 2" also started to be released simultaneously around the world.The film has been released at the end of December, but although it cannot be said that it will be released at this time, it is already the best time that Sony can coordinate. The first one to bear the brunt is Zhang Guoshi's "The City of Golden Armor",  In order to avoid "The Magic Apprentice", Sony could only try to release "The Golden Armor" as early as possible. The same is true in mainland China. "The Golden Armor", which was originally scheduled to be released in mid-December, had to be hastily released in mid-November.  But the box office is still gorgeous. The box office on the first day of release in China reached 15 million yuan. In the first four days, the box office has reached 96 million yuan. It is inevitable to hit the box office of 100 million yuan. The key to the problem is that 200 million yuan  ?  300 million?  400 million or 500 million?  In the United States, the film did not seem to meet the taste of the American people. The box office in its first week only reached 1.87 million U.S. dollars, which was worse than the Chinese box office. In the end, the U.S. box office was only 6.57 million yuan, losing to "Heroes" and "Ten".  "Ambush".  The cost of the film was announced to be 360 ??million yuan, but the final box office in China was 290 million yuan, and it relied entirely on overseas markets to recoup the cost.  The combined box office of the entire overseas market and the Chinese market reached 79 million US dollars, which is more than 600 million yuan. However, if the cost is really 360 million yuan, it is still hopeless to rely on the box office to recover the money.  We can only hope that the DVD distribution and TV broadcast rights will be repaid.  Comparatively speaking, "The Golden Jackpot" can only be regarded as a good performance. "Fearless" at the beginning of the year claimed to have invested 30 million US dollars, and the cost reached more than 200 million yuan. The final box office was about the same as "The Golden Jackpot", and it was said to have reached 500 million  box office in RMB.  Recovering the cost is not a problem, but looking at the box office, it seems that it will take a long time to recover the cost.  At the same time, these two films have greatly lost ground in public opinion. Although their performance and reputation have attracted more people to the theater, after watching the movies, there are almost no ordinary movie fans who can say anything good about these two films.  Except for some fans, of course.  Many people watched the movie, outside of the gorgeous, gorgeous scenes.  There seems to be a feeling of loss. The excitement I felt when watching martial arts movies can no longer be found. The more gorgeous Director Zhang's pictures are in line with his identity, the more empty the plot of his entire movie becomes.  It's as if there was some sort of inverse ratio between his talent for set photography and the interest he brought to the film.  In contrast, the momentum of the release of "Magic Apprentice 2" seems to make people not worry about the box office.  Even before the movie is released, potential fans are already eager to subscribe for movie tickets, whether in the United States or China.  Those fans who were tortured by "Star Wars" seemed to get some kind of pleasure from the astonishing speed of "Magic Apprentice".  "Oh my god, I can't believe it's only been half a year. They have already produced the second part, and I heard that the third part is also in production. If the second part is well received, it will be released in the summer vacation.  It¡¯s just unimaginable, I mean neither Star Wars nor Harry Potter seems to be able to do it that fast, let alone the actors from Harry Potter.¡±  An excited fan made such remarks during a temporary interview on the TV station. It is difficult to say whether this is a trap arranged by Sony or Columbia, but judging from the general feedback from fans.  It seems that they don't mind looking for some new excitement when they are tortured by "Harry Potter", especially if the excitement is interesting.  The craze for the first part of "The Magic Apprentice" has gained some fermentation. Similarly, the novel offensive of "The Magic Apprentice" has also cultivated a large number of potential movie lovers.  You must know that the pleasure you get from reading a movie is completely different from the pleasure you get from watching a movie directly.  Especially when the movie and novel shot by Shen Zhenghui are particularly well-produced.  In the second half of the first part, Mario's appearance in women's clothing was even more amazing. Now in the second part, they can enjoy this feast even more. Generally speaking, if it is just a beautiful woman, it is impossible to capture more than average people.  Note, but if you add a gimmick that this beautiful beauty is a cute boy, the degree to which it can attract others will suddenly be different.  Thailand is deeply influenced by the magic of "The Magic Apprentice". In addition to foreign tourists who go to China to watch the filming set, Thailand has also become a key tourist destination for foreign tourists. Its transvestite show has quickly become a topic in Europe and the United States, so much so that many people believe that Mali  Oh, he's a shemale - and using a shemale as the male lead is really crazy.  Although the media has repeatedly promoted and emphasized Mario's identity as a boy, there are still a large number of chuunibyou patients who believe that I am correct and insist on their opinions.  However, this also helped the promotion of "Magic Apprentice" to a certain extent. The Los Angeles Gay Alliance announced that Mario is the best gay image in their minds, and there is no one.  Since Mario was not yet eighteen years old, Sony did not arrange for him to attend promotional events in Los Angeles due to strong protests from Mario's mother, which triggered another round of protests from the Gay Alliance.  Anyway, amidst the commotion, "The Magic Apprentice"has been released, and the rounds of publicity are enough to make people who are interested in the movie enter the cinema. Several major Hollywood companies are strongly paying attention to the results of this sequel. According to Hollywood theory, if the sequel  The second and third sequels have taken hold, which means this series has truly become a money-printing machine.  Outside of Hollywood, there are also Sim Ching-hui¡¯s peers who are paying close attention to the performance of his films. This includes not only Hong Kong directors, but also major directors who are trying to impact overseas markets with so-called domestic blockbusters.  Whether they are the elites of Eastern Hollywood or the masters of domestic films, whether they admire or disdain Shen Zhenghui, whether the theme is commercial or artistic, they are all extremely concerned about the box office of his movies. This is not only because of Shen Zhenghui's success,  Not only has he established a firm foothold in Hollywood, but also because he seems to have grasped the pulse of the times with every film he plays, and every film caters to the interests of the audience, especially "The Magic Apprentice," which has a record of $690 million.  , this is currently the number one box office masterpiece by a Chinese director, and it seems that only Shen Zhenghui himself has any hope of breaking it.  Everyone hopes to know how Shen Zhenghui manages to cater to the audience in each of his movies.  So they pinned the possibility of understanding this situation on the second part of "Magic Apprentice".  ¡°Of course, I don¡¯t know how many people with dark minds are secretly cursing and hoping that Shen Zhenghui¡¯s film will be released on the street, but I believe that more people have prepared congratulatory letters, or are preparing to express their own congratulations to Director Shen through entertainment reporters.  Of course, more high-end people have already established connections, hoping that officials such as the film bureau can come forward to organize an exchange meeting about Chinese movies - or Chinese directors, and ask Shen Zhenghui these issues face to face.  Of course, some of Shen Zhenghui¡¯s original remarks, as he himself is a shareholder of Qidian, Qidian¡¯s self-promotion and self-advertising remarks have gradually been concentrated into reports or internal reference articles.  So some people have begun to think about whether this reference to the upstream industry in the entertainment industry is useful?  ¡°All of this must be proven by ¡°Magic Apprentice 2¡± and even strengthen the message of those who hold this belief.  When so many people are paying attention to the box office of "The Magic Apprentice 2", it seems that some kind of ideological power has really arisen. In North America, after four days of release, the box office exceeded 110 million US dollars in the first week. At the same time, in China, the box office in the first week  Zhou's box office also exceeded 110 million yuan.  And as far as the reputation of the general audience is concerned, it is extremely good.  Such results seem to be enough to crush "City Full of Golden Armor".  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
