There are generally three ways to publish Hong Kong movies:
First, sell trailers, that is, pre-sale the copyright of the video in advance.
For example, one day Kang Jianfei's film company has no funds, he can announce that he will shoot a movie soon, and then ask film and theater merchants to sell films and raise production fees.
This method is a gambling act for production companies and hospital merchants, and was extremely popular in Hong Kong in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
For example, a company spent 2 million yuan to sign a film contract with Andy Lau. The film has not started filming yet, and she can sell 8 million yuan in films from Taiwanese businessmen with the film contract.
This thing is the same as pre-sale of the property in advance before construction has started.
(In addition, Hollywood shopping means that if a theater chain wants to buy a film from a film production company, it must buy all the movies of the company throughout the year, including those that have not been previewed)
Second, the agency distribution company helps the distribution. This practice is done by film production companies only need to contact the distribution company and do not have to deal with the cinema;
The third is to be released in a certain theater.Kang Jianfei’s Oriental Dream Factory is doing this in Hong Kong, directly contacting Princess Golden Cinemas, saving the intermediate issuance costs.
In the past, the movies of Oriental DreamWorks were all provided by the Golden Princess movie distribution company for helping us contact us. Now, except for Taiwan and Nanyang, DreamWorks' overseas distribution rights have been collected.
Like the release of "The Royal Sister" in Japan, DreamWorks directly contacted Japan's Songzhu Film and then distributed it by Songzhu Film.
The most popular and profitable thing in Japan is Kakugawa Film. Although Matsutake Film is one of the five major film companies in Japan, the production volume last year was less than Kang Jianfei's Oriental Dream Factory.
The two actors Sanada Hiroyuki and Matsusaka Keiko in "The Royal Sister" are both pillars of the Songzhu film.
In addition, the quality of this movie is great, Songzhu Film naturally fully supports the release of "Senior Sister Royal" in Japan without its own good films.
If this movie is successful, then Songzhu Film will not only earn a considerable distribution fee, but also praise its own stars.
Like Shaw Pictures, Songzhu Film is an old film company and has its own cinema chain. It is very easy to create 21 cinemas to screen "The Royal Sister".
If Princess Jin continues to be released, it is estimated that "The Royal Sister" will have to wait half a year before it will be released in Japan.
Kyoto Shijo Minamiza.
This name sounds really weird, but in fact it is like Li Stage and belongs to a luxurious theater.You can perform traditional dramas in your daily life, hold concerts for singers, or release movies as cinemas.
Like Tokyo Kabukiza, Kyoto Shijo Nanza, both belong to the industry under Matsuba Filmography.
Half a month ago, while Kang Jianfei was promoting "The Royal Sister" in Hong Kong, Songzhu Film also promoted the movie.
As for the promotional expenses, naturally, the Songzhu Film is first placed and then deducted from the box office revenue. This is also what most companies do when they are agents for issuing.
When "The Royal Sister" was promoted in Hong Kong, the focus of publicity was naturally Kang Jianfei and Brigitte Lin; but when promoting in Japan, the publicity center was changed to Hiroyuki Sanada and Keiko Matsusaka.
It has to be said that Hiroyuki Sanada and Keiko Matsusaka have very good box office appeal.
On the first day of New Year's Day, "The Royal Sister" was released in Shijo Nanzo, Kyoto, and the attendance rate of the first game was 74%.
Takeshi Kitano, the Japanese film emperor who was as famous as Akira Kurosawa in the future, was still a crosstalk actor at this time.
He performed crosstalk in Shijo Nanzo yesterday, and his partner received two tickets for the movie "The Royal Sister". Today, after performing crosstalk in another Kabukizo, they returned to Shijo Nanzo to watch a free movie.
I heard this is a Hong Kong movie.Kitano's partner Akihito Yamaguchi said.
Takeshi Kitano nodded and said: I have heard that the Songzhu Film has been promoting this movie recently, I hope it will be very good.
Akihito Yamaguchi said: I only like to watch Bruce Lee's Hong Kong movies, I don't know other Hong Kong actors.
Takeshi Kitano smiled and said: Jackie Chan is not bad either.
Akihito Yamaguchi shook his head and said: His "Killer Trench" is so bad. I heard that the production cost alone costs 3 billion yen, so it would be better to use this money to arrange crosstalk for us.
Haha, crosstalk cannot be used for 3 billion, 300,000 is enough.Takeshi Kitano said with a smile.
While the two talked, a beam of light was projected onto the big screen and the movie finally began.
Music and pictures are boundless. The opening animation of Oriental DreamWorks made Takeshi Kitano and Akihito Yamaguchi immediately quiet down, feeling that this film company that claims to be DreamWorks seems to be a little different from other film companies.
After the opening animation, a picture of the release of the Songzhu film was added, which was temporarily added before the release of Japan.
The beginning of the movie is the streets of Tokyo, which immediately makes Japanese audiences feel familiar and reduces the cultural isolation of many imported videos.
The beginning is that Brigitte Lin rescued a Japanese from the Japanese gang, and her neat skills immediately attracted many audiences, including Takeshi Kitano.
However, it was not until the Japanese audience's familiar appearance that the atmosphere in the screening room became warm.
Especially when Hiroyuki Sanada showed his skills on the plane and stuffed the detonated grenade into the storage cabinet at critical moments to save the passengers of the entire plane, a burst of cheers broke out in the screening hall.
The benefits of Kang Jianfei's invitation to join the franchise are finally reflected. In Taiwan, Taiwanese audiences are definitely Brigitte Lin, while Japanese audiences are Sanada Hiroyuki and Matsusaka Keiko.
When Keiko Matsusaka appeared, Takeshi Kitano heard someone in the back seat sighing: Keiko is really worthy of being the number one beauty in Japan, and this hairstyle is very suitable for her, like a gentle and virtuous wife and mother.
Sanada Kan and Keiko's daughter are also very cute, and they are such a happy family.
Sanada Jun is amazing.
Of course, he is Chiba Shinichi's disciple.
……
boom!A violent explosion sounded, and as the flames burned in the car, all the audience was stunned.
Baga!
How could this be done? Keiko and her daughter were actually bombed to death.
Abominable director, abominable screenwriter.
Kill that bad guy!
……
When I saw this, the Japanese audience's response was even greater than that of Hong Kong audiences.
Especially afterwards, Hiroyuki Sanada was knocked into a big pit and was about to be buried alive. Many viewers were so excited that they sweated all over, fearing that the director would shoot Hiroyuki Sanada to death.
Until Brigitte Lin fought life and death with the villain to save Hiroyuki Sanada, the Japanese audience immediately became more fond of Brigitte Lin, and they praised Brigitte Lin for being beautiful and capable of fighting.
There is a long plot in the middle, and Hiroyuki Sanada did not appear.
Just as the Japanese audience was impatient, the scene of Mikao, played by Kang Jianfei, committed suicide, finally impressed the Japanese audience who was unfamiliar with him.
By this time the movie was released, most of the movie had passed. Japanese audiences had always regarded Kang Jianfei's role as a joke clown, but now they finally regard him as their own person.
Yamaguchi Akihito breathed and said: This is really a good movie that made me feel ups and downs, and the fights, speeding and explosions are really great.
Takeshi Kitano nodded and said: It's Ah, Yamaguchi-kun, how about you saying we're going to act in movies too?
Ah?Yamaguchi Akihito asked casually, but his eyes were staring at the big screen. When he saw Mi Gao being dug up his body, he couldn't help but curse, Baga!Too shameless.
The final battle made everyone very happy. The only thing that made the Japanese audience unhappy was: In the final battle, Hiroyuki Sanada actually injured his leg early, and the life-and-death struggle was not participated, and Brigitte Lin showed his face alone.
However, the final ending still satisfies the audience. The bad guys get the consequences of evil, and justice defeats evil.
After watching a movie, some viewers asked: Who is the heroine, she looks so beautiful, and she is also very good at it.
I don’t know, there are posters outside, just look at the posters.
I know who she is. She is the Taiwanese star Brigitte Lin. In the past, there were films showing her in Japan.
……
Brigitte Lin is very popular in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia and South Korea, but she is not well-known in Japan.Although many of her movies have been screened in Japan, they have no influence.
But from now on, Japanese audiences will remember that in addition to Jackie Chan, there is also a Chinese star named Brigitte Lin.
After watching the movie, a Japanese audience, who was a little idle and frustrated, ran to see the poster information, and a guy suddenly shouted: I accidentally discovered that the actor who played Migao was the director of this movie!
Take Kitano stared at the poster for a while, but he had the idea to be an actor in his heart.This future Japanese movie emperor is already middle-aged. After watching "The Royal Sister", he suddenly wants to be an actor.
The first day of "The Royal Sister" was released in five games, and the attendance rate of the last two games was close to 80%, which made the person in charge of Songzhu Cinema happy.
On the second day of its release, New Year's Day, the average attendance rate of "The Royal Sister" gradually increased to 83%.
Such a high attendance rate, in addition to the New Year's Day holiday, is mainly because of the very strong box office appeal of Hiroyuki Sanada and Keiko Matsusaka.
In the following days, as the reputation of "The Royal Sister" gradually spread, the number of viewers increased sharply.
Even "Asakura Xingye" is in its entertainment version, saying "Senior Sister Royal" is a box office dark horse in the new year this year, and praised Brigitte Lin and Hiroyuki Sanada as very co-starred screen partners. Their handsome and beautiful appearances and great skills will definitely be the box office pharmacy in the future.
Japanese professional film magazine "Movie Shinbao" exclaimed: Hong Kong's film production level has surpassed Japan, "The Royal Sister" is the real action movie, and the Japanese action movie shooting techniques are still in the 1960s...
Songzhu Film saw "The Royal Sister" sold well. After some discussion and consideration, it took the initiative to contact Oriental Dream Factory, hoping to distribute "Mr. Zombie".
On the second day after "The Royal Sister" was released in Japan, Kang Jianfei's second novel "The Journey of Ethereal" was officially serialized in the Oriental Daily on New Year's Day.
