"Brother Ma is so handsome, he is my idol!"

"Song Zijie is the most handsome."

"Song Zijie is handsome, but he is so annoying. Look at what he said to his brother. Are those what his brother said?"

"I don't blame him, because my elder brother was involved in my father's death. I hate him as much as I love him."

"That's true, but Ti Lung is also very pitiful, especially his sentence about "I haven't been a big brother for a long time." It's so classic."

"Yes, and that song is also good. I haven't been a big brother for many years...I almost cried when I listened to it."

"Why are you crying? Say something happy. Let's go buy a windbreaker and sunglasses later. I like Xiao Ma's style very much."

"I like it too, but why did you let Brother Ma die? Damn the director."

"Yes, the director deserves to die. Do you think we should kill the director? I belong to Hong Xing."

"I'm from Dongxing, your enemy of Hongxing, but I agree to kill the director. Who asked him to shoot Xiao Ma to death? I'll be happy today and kill the director tomorrow."

"You're right. Tomorrow we're going to kill the director and screenwriter. You said we'd go to a nightclub later to pick up girls. Why don't we use US dollars to light cigarettes? Hong Kong dollars are also fine. It's so cool and stylish."

"It's cool. I'll give it a try later and let the girls sing around us."

"Hong Kong dollars are too expensive, why not use..."

…

After the release of "A Better Tomorrow", it immediately caused a sensation in Hong Kong. Countless citizens flocked to the cinema to watch this movie, which can be called a phenomenon.

At the beginning of the video, everyone was attracted by the scene of Brother Ma lighting a cigarette with banknotes. This was so cool, why didn't they think of it.

Then the plot unfolded, and everyone was sometimes excited and sometimes sad, completely attracted by the movie.

Especially the part where Brother Ma takes revenge for Song Zihao!

"It is my destiny to step into the world,

It's not that you are willing to be a bad guy.

It's better to be brothers,

Wear gold and silver.

Sometimes money is tight,

Become sworn brothers and tease Sating.

…”

As the Taiwanese song "The Ups and Downs Brothers" played, Brother Ma hugged a restaurant girl and danced together in the aisle of the restaurant, and even made some charming moves.

But there was no evil thought in the hearts of the audience, because everyone saw that under the cover of dancing, Xiao Ma hid pistols in the flower pots on both sides of the corridor.

It foreshadows what he will do next - blood for blood, tooth for tooth, to avenge Brother Hao.

Hong Kong is a place overflowing with associations, especially in Hong Kong. There are dozens of associations, large and small, such as Dongxing, Hongxing, Hesheng, etc., with hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of gang members. Almost every household in Hong Kong is related to the Young and Dangerous.

It has something to do with it, so naturally, it is also affected by it.

Although many people are unscrupulous, they still believe in the love of blood for blood and tooth for tooth. Seeing Brother Ma killing Xiang Xiang in the restaurant, many people wish they had such skills.

It was even more sad to see Brother Ma being attacked and limping away from the scene.

At the end of the film, when they saw Brother Ma being shot in the head by the villain, many people cursed the director and screenwriter, hating them for letting Brother Ma die.

The words that the villain Tan Cheng said before Song Zihao's gun ran out of bullets and the police rushed to the scene and went out to surrender made everyone even more indignant. Many people wanted to rush into the movie and beat Tan Cheng to death with their fists.

Fortunately, this is a commercial film, and the producer's first consideration is box office.

If it were a literary film, it would definitely be Tan Cheng who successfully surrendered and was released on bail by his lawyer a few weeks or even a few days later.

Commercial films are different. They have to take care of the audience's emotions, so Song Zijie handed the gun in his hand to his brother Song Zihao. After Song Zihao shot Tan Cheng to death, he even asked his brother to handcuff him and take him to surrender.

It fully expresses the relationship between the two brothers and also takes care of the audience's emotions.

So "A Better Tomorrow" became a hit.

Even though it was released simultaneously in more than 30 theaters, there were still long queues at the box office of many theaters during prime time. Its attendance rate made colleagues jealous, and the box office in the first week even made many film company bosses want to hang themselves.

The one-week box office is higher than the combined box office of many movies produced by film companies, and it also pushes the record up a lot.

Let alone if it is just a box office hit, the reason why the phenomenon is called a phenomenon is because it will also have a huge impact on the real world.

during this time

As long as you walk on the street, you can see that whether they are students, hawkers or young and Dangerous people from the club, many people are wearing windbreakers, sunglasses, holding a toothpick in their mouths, dressing up as Ponyboy on the street

Go up.

This resulted in a huge increase in sales of toothpicks, sunglasses, and windbreakers, especially windbreakers and sunglasses. Knowing that these two items would explode, Lei Weidong prepared a large amount of inventory in advance, all of which were purchased by Ahong in the Mainland.

Although Ah Hong's garment factory is still in the stage of personnel training and machinery installation and is unable to accept orders, there are so many garment factories in the mainland that any factory can produce.

Because they use foreign exchange, the price is unimaginably low.

Just after the windbreaker and sunglasses became popular, pirated copies came out in less than two weeks.

Facing the pirates who competed with him for the market, Lei Weidong only used one trick, lowering the price, and beat them into a panic.

In terms of quality, how can the products produced by small workshops compare with regular manufacturers?

In terms of price, how can the things produced in Xiangjiang compare with those in the mainland? It is not products with high technical content such as TVs and refrigerators, but clothing is labor-intensive.

Faced with authentic products that were even cheaper than pirated ones, those buyers were in tears and had no choice but to deal with them at a loss and go to Lei Weidong to wholesale the authentic products.

Not only local merchants from Xiangjiang, but also traders from Southeast Asia came here.

As for the reason!

Just like reality, the Hong Kong variety show world and the Hong Kong movies of the 1980s are all in Asia.

Movies that are not a hit at the box office in Hong Kong are likely to be hits in other regions, and movies that are hits at the box office in Xiangjiang will definitely be hits in other regions.

Less than a week after the release of "A Better Tomorrow", its incredible box office performance attracted all overseas film producers.

Everyone came to the door waving checks, and with a super high box office share contract, bought back the screening rights of this movie that had a huge box office and screened it in their own country.

Everyone knows that "A Better Tomorrow" will explode at the box office, and that the trench coats and sunglasses will sell like hotcakes, even if they can't compare to the hundreds of thousands sold in Hong Kong.

In Southeast Asia, which has a population dozens of times that of Xiangjiang, it is easy to sell two to three million units.

This made Ah Hong's hands weak when counting money. At the same time, she also understood that opening a garment factory in the mainland could make a lot of money. Her previous steps were too small and she needed to increase investment to turn the number of workers in the garment factory from thousands to tens of thousands.

People, not to mention in the whole country, at least in the special zone must do their best.

"Congratulations!"

In the VIP room on the top floor of XX Club in Central, Lei Weidong met the director. As soon as they met, the director congratulated Lei Weidong.

"I didn't expect that "A Better Tomorrow" would be so popular. Not only did it break the previous record, but it also exceeded the previous record by a large margin, not to mention 30 million. It's a pity that it didn't break 40 million." There was something in the director's words.

Pity.

"Where is the population base of Xiangjiang? The 40 million box office needs to increase the population, otherwise there will be no chance." Lei Weidong smiled and filled the teacup in front of the director and said: "Director, you have made a profit this time.

More than three million is not a lot."

"It's quite a lot. It's more than my salary in seven or eight years. What's more, I have a reputation. Many friends have asked me if I want to write an autobiography and become a writer after retirement." The director smiled,

"It would be nice if there were a few more scripts."

"Yeah!" Lei Weidong just nodded and didn't answer. Instead, he drank the tea cup gently.

"You little bastard who doesn't let go of rabbits." Seeing Lei Weidong drinking tea leisurely and contentedly, the director cursed in his heart and said, "Huang Bingyao's new position has been confirmed.

After Paul of the Hong Kong Island Region retires, he will become the Commander of West Kowloon. Lin Meng will also be promoted to the Commander of the Central Region. His deputy will be Uncle Biao. As for you."

The director paused and said, "The Tsim Sha Tsui Police Commissioner has been confirmed, but for the position of Yau Tsim District Commander, some people say you are too young.

It's a little inappropriate to be the commander, so I'd better serve as deputy first and then be promoted in two years."

"I have two scripts here." Lei Weidong took out the prepared script, "One is "Police Story", which I adapted based on the Zhu Tao drug trafficking case two years ago. The protagonist is played by Chinese-American Li Yuanba.

The other one is "Five Lucky Stars". I saw five living treasures some time ago. The combination they formed was very funny, so I wanted to put their stories on the big screen.

Although these two scripts are not as good as "A Better Tomorrow", they are still capable of earning more than 20 million yuan at the box office."

"The two 20 million dollars add up to 40 million, which is good." The director nodded with satisfaction.

Although he is not a person in the film industry, the director also understands that movie box office is not easy to break, and movies like "A Better Tomorrow" are hard to come by.

Generally speaking, if a movie has a box office of more than 10 million, it is considered a blockbuster, and if it reaches 20 million, it is considered a hit.

Moreover, since Lei Weidong dares to promise, he means that the box office of the movie will definitely exceed 20 million. Even if it does not exceed, he will buy enough box office to make it exceed.

The Oriental Group continues to grow in Hong Kong. Not only the employees in shopping malls and supermarkets, but also the thousands of taxi drivers, if they and their families go to the movies, the box office can be increased by hundreds of thousands or even millions.

""A Better Tomorrow" made Fa Ge a fairy, and I am going to make a tailor-made movie for him to hit the 30 million box office mark again.

It's just that I'm still conceiving this script, and it will take some time to come up with it," Lei Weidong continued.

"Leisheng, how much market has the taxi company you mentioned last time occupied?"
