10 [Failed to play]
Generally speaking, midnight venues have a attendance rate of 60% to 70%.
If the films of Bruce Lee, Dillon and David Jiang were released, the midnight show might be even full. Fans would rather buy scalper tickets at high prices than try to get a glimpse.
"The Band of the Corps" now has less than 50% of the attendance rate, which is indeed not outstanding.
But Ye Jin could understand this.
In terms of the cast of "The Band of Corps" is not very outstanding. Starring Chen Xing and Chen Guantai are just small stars at Xiaoshi Film. They have never starred in a movie and have no box office appeal.
In terms of main creators, director Wu Siyuan is also a newcomer. "Crazy Killer" directed last year is not a hit. Yuan Heping is now just a fledgling martial arts leader, and he is not the world-famous Eighth Master in the future.
The starring actors and the main creators have no selling points and no box office appeal, so it is not surprising that the midnight show will not be sold.
However, this does not mean that "The Swordsman" will definitely not be able to turn over.
There have always been many dark horse works in the film industry. Many movies were not optimistic when they were first released, but if the quality of the movie itself is good, it can still achieve high box office.
For example, the most popular movie this year, "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World", when it was first released, no one had much confidence in it, and they thought it was just another bad movie.
But in the end, because of its excellent quality, the audience became [Tape Water] and actively helped promote it. One passes to ten, ten passes to hundreds. Soon the movie became the biggest dark horse in the summer season, and it was transparent in the dark, and eventually won nearly 5 billion yuan in box office, shattering the eye.
...
After taking the front seat, the movie started playing immediately.
In the 1970s, cinemas were still relatively regular, with no clip advertisements at all, and they would directly play movies as soon as they arrived.
At the beginning of the movie, the police chased the thief of Jianghu. Jianghu was alone, bare-handed, facing more than a dozen soldiers with live ammunition, and were not afraid at all. They used their martial arts to beat them to the point of falling.
One of them is Ye Jin.
Ye Jin saw himself on the big screen for the first time and felt excited. But to be honest, his image is not outstanding, mainly because he is not handsome.
In Ye Jin's opinion, this fighting scene was basically failed. The main reason was that the fight was too old-fashioned. The protagonist only fought with one person every time, and the others were swaying around, one was beaten and the other was on. Moreover, the camera was not rich in conversion, and it was basically a mid-scene shot, with occasional close-ups.
In comparison, the action movies in later generations are much more exciting. Several people took action together and combined with camera conversion, which made the audience dizzy, a sense of urgency, a stronger sense of crisis, and a natural and refreshing look.
Although Yuan Heping is talented, he is limited by history and is not as advanced as Ye Jin.
The reason why Ye Jin did not remind him was that he was not in his position and did not do his own politics. He was just a dragon and tiger martial arts master, not a martial arts guide, and he was not worried about martial arts design. Second, the new martial arts style was his trump card for becoming famous, so he would not tell others easily, so as not to teach his disciples to starve his master to death.
Although Ye Jin looked down on this fighting scene, judging from the audience's amazement one after another, it was obviously very attractive to them.
...
After defeating the police, the gangster jumped. As soon as the picture turned, he was running between the fields, and there were several wanted orders interspersed in the picture. It was obvious that he was wandering around the world and escaping pursuit.
The movie name "Dang Ketan" list also appeared.
This kind of movie starts with a climax scene and then subtitles. Compared with the traditional narrative method of step-by-step movies, it is obviously more attractive to the audience's attention.
From this point of view, Wu Siyuan is also a talented person.
After the subtitles were played, the picture changed again. A young man was practicing boxing by the beach, and there was a beautiful woman in front of him.
These two are also the main characters in the film. The man is Yu Yang and the woman is Lin Meiyu. Both are popular artists under TVB. After practicing boxing, they were having fun at the beach. At this time, a mute came and told them that "Shen San is back."
The actor of the mute is from the Korean talent, Xiao’s martial arts training class, and is a student of the same class as Di Long. However, because he is limited in appearance, short and not good-looking, he can only play roles such as small characters and bewitching people. His long-range career is not as bright as his classmate Di Long.
The picture changed again, and the despicable Chen San, who was despicable, was boasting about the power of the Heshan Road in Japan, and also said that he would monopolize the gentian grass produced in the village. The villagers refused to sell it, so they started fighting again.
A major feature of traditional kung fu films is that they play every three or five minutes, and they will never be in a bad mood.
The villagers were no match for Chen San, and they were beaten up. Just when Shen San was arrogant, the young man arrived and beat Chen San to the sky. Then, the young man and his girlfriend went home.
At this time, the gangster also fled to the village and stayed at his house with the help of the mute.
...
When the young man returned home, as soon as he climbed the steps, someone attacked him, and then another fight. But he stopped until he was about to stop, and he would not hurt the harmony.
The person who attacked was played by Liu Dachuan, known as the first boxing champion in Xiangjiang. Last year, Liu Dachuan once issued a challenge book to the king of kung fu Bruce Lee, which caused a sensation.
But whether there was a fight or not, who won the final battle, but there was no following. There are many legends in the world, some say that Bruce Lee won, some say that Liu Dachuan won, but in short, this person became popular with this topic.
Wu Siyuan invited him to play, and wanted to borrow his fame. Let everyone see how capable this person who challenged Bruce Lee was.
The two of them fought a few times and stopped and praised each other. The person who attacked each other, namely Brother Sun, suggested that he was coming to transport gentian grass, saying that there was a plague in North China and that gentian grass was urgently needed to treat it. They also said that the National Government arrested the Japanese ronin, and the Japanese side was trying to find a way to rescue them.
Thinking of the sudden arrival of Heshan Road in the village, everyone finally understood that the Japanese wanted to use gentian grass to control the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in North China, thus coercing the National Government to release the Japanese Ransen.
Yu Tang, the young man's brother and the owner of the Yu Martial Arts Hall, was starred by He Shouxin, the popular host of TVB. He Shouxin joined the TVB ace program "Happy Tonight" in 1972 as the host, and became a hit and became one of the most popular hosts in Xiangjiang.
Wu Siyuan invited him to film, and he also attracted his high popularity and relatively low pay.
While the three were talking, the villagers came to report that the Japanese Ronin was coming.
As the picture turned, Ye Jin was wearing a wig and a mask, and striding with a team of Japanese ronin, and entered the village in a mighty manner under the leadership of Shen San. It was obvious that the visitors were not good.
Among the Japanese ronin he brought, there was Ueno Taro, played by Fang Ye, the father of Xiangjiang Muay Thai. Fang Ye set up a Muay Thai gym in Hong Kong in 1966 and defeated many masters who came to play. He had a very good reputation in the industry. Even Wang Shi, the male lead in "One-Armed Knife", and the most popular male star in Hong Kong, once studied Muay Thai as a teacher.
In the 1971, Fang Yekan performed Muay Thai in "Happy Tonight", which also caused a great sensation. He was also invited by Bruce Lee to star in movies such as "Dragon and Tiger Fight" and "Death Game". He is a person with real kung fu.
