Chapter 159 Du Xinwu Released, Another Title

In Du Xinwu's movie, because most of the actions are real shots, and there are not too many special effects, the post-editing work is relatively fast.

By mid-December, the editing and soundtrack of the film were all completed.

Jiang Zhiqiang, Han Sanpin and others have already watched the finished film, and they are very satisfied with the quality of the film.

By the beginning of January, Jiang Zhiqiang had settled the release of the film on Hong Kong Island and brought good news.

The distribution rights of Du Xinwu's film Omi were sold to Max Company for 1500 million yuan.

Max Company is the distributor of Hero in Omi, and they have tasted the sweetness of the movie Hero. After they knew that the protagonist of this movie was Jiang Changsheng, they were very interested.

After seeing the finished film, it is even more optimistic.

Jiang Zhiqiang is good at doing business, and the two parties negotiated and finally set the price at 1500 million yuan.

After Ye Guobin heard the news, he was stunned. Before the movie was released, he had already made a lot of money.

Jiang Changsheng was also very surprised, he didn't expect to be able to sell it at such a high price.

Although Hero's Omi distribution rights were sold for 2500 million yuan, the hero's investment amount was 3000 million yuan.

The cast is also much better than Du Xinwu's movie.

Moreover, Hero is still a big scene commercial movie, while Du Xinwu is just a kung fu movie.

It can be sold for 1500 million yuan. It can only be said that Jiang Zhiqiang has some skills, but it also proves Jiang Changsheng's popularity in Omi.

Max, the company, is not a charity either. They dared to offer a high price of 1500 million yuan. They must have done market research. They believed in Jiang Changsheng's market appeal.

Ye Guobin has a keen sense of marketing, he immediately held a media conference and announced the news that Du Xin's five-ohm release sold for 1500 million yuan.

This news has brought huge attention to Du Xinwu's film.

The social atmosphere at this time is still the same. The moon abroad is relatively round. Du Xinwu sold at a high price in Omi, which means he was recognized by the Omi people. Naturally, everyone became interested in this movie that was favored by the Omi people.

Starting from January 1rd, Jiang Changsheng took Liu Yifei and Dong Xuan to promote the film, from YangTV to Yanjing Satellite TV to Mango TV, from Yanjing to Shanghai to Gwangju, and participated in several promotional activities in a row.

Fortunately, the domestic box office is mainly concentrated in a few big cities at this time, so Jiang Changsheng doesn't have to travel all over the country.

For the promotion of the movie, Jiang Changsheng brazenly changed the song sung in this year's Spring Festival Gala to Du Xinwu's theme song, "No Hero".

Anyway, singing this song in the Spring Festival Evening is not against harmony.

As Jiang Changsheng's coffee position gets higher and higher, his relationship with Yangshi gets closer, and his treatment in the Spring Festival Gala gets better and better.

In addition to singing the theme song of the movie himself, Jiang Changsheng also arranged for Liu Yifei to be included in the Spring Festival Gala. Her song "Girl with Wings" is really suitable for the Spring Festival Gala stage.

After receiving Chen Mang's opinion, the director team agreed.

For this Spring Festival Gala, Jiang Changsheng has been supervising Concubine Liu's song practice while promoting the movie. After practicing the Harmony Pile, Concubine Liu Yifei's breath is full, and her singing has made great progress.

Now he basically has the singing skills of a second-tier singer, and after two years of unremitting training, his singing level will be able to step into the first-tier without any problem.

Except for those who are born with pentatonic insufficiency, singing can be practiced. When many singers first debuted, their singing skills were poor, and the more they sang, the better they became.

Of course, talented singers like Wang Fei are not included.

Throughout January, Jiang Changsheng spent the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal and film promotion.

On January 1, the premiere of Du Xinwu was held in Huaying New World Cinema.

Premieres in this period don't have much of a red carpet, and don't have a lot of formality.

It is to invite the main creators, producers and sponsors to the scene for interviews.

Jiang Changsheng was interviewed on the spot and performed a set of martial arts moves, and Liu Yifei also performed a set of swordsmanship.

After the interview, the lights were dimmed and the film began to be shown.

At night, with the bright moon shining brightly, on a lonely cliff, a tall man stood on the edge of the cliff.

This man was wearing a black strong suit, with broad shoulders, broad back, slender limbs, perfect body proportions, and a fierce aura all over his body.

It is Du Xinwu, the hero of the film.

The camera zooms in and shows Du Xinwu's face, which is smooth, natural and well-defined, harmonious and three-dimensional, his eyes are shining like stars, his nose is like a knife's edge killing people, his eyebrows are like slanting swords flying on his temples, and his face is like a bright moon shining on people!
This appearance is simply the work of Nuwa.

There were already many women in the theater exclaiming in low voices, and some even secretly swallowed their saliva.

Jiang Changsheng is playing Du Xinwu when he was young at this time. The makeup is not too much modified, and the movie camera is also very real. If you look closely, you can see the faint pores on Jiang Changsheng's face.

This truth not only did not damage his handsomeness, but made the girl blush even more.

Liu Yifei and Dong Xuan who were sitting beside Jiang Changsheng were also dazzled at this moment.

The camera zooms out, and Du Xinwu stands on the cliff, looking at the brightly lit cottage on the opposite side.

The cottage was crowded with people, very lively, with wine and meat, as if they were celebrating something.

Du Xinwu's eyes gradually turned cold. He took out a flying sickle hook, tied the rope, and threw it vigorously. The flying sickle hook whizzed away and was deeply nailed to the opposite cliff.

Du Xinwu tugged, and after confirming it was safe, he tied the end of the rope. When the audience thought he was going to use a pulley to slide to the opposite side, he didn't have a pulley, but directly grabbed the rope with both hands, and hung himself on the rope. Alternate hands forward.

Du Xinwu was hanging between the cliffs, hanging on the rope with his hands, and swung towards the opposite side one after another.

From time to time, the camera showed close-ups of the two ends of the rope rattling, as well as images of rocks rolling down the cliff and being smashed to pieces.

The atmosphere is full.

The audience became nervous, and many people who were afraid of heights didn't even dare to watch.

Du Xinwu didn't change his face, and swung to the cottage very calmly.

This cottage is easy to defend but difficult to attack. No one thought that someone would break into the cottage from the top of the cliff.

Du Xinwu hid on the top of the cliff, and when everyone in the cottage was drunk or asleep, he took out a dagger, turned into a god of killing, and killed more than a hundred people in the cottage!
The audience was shocked by Du Xinwu's ruthlessness!
This is the first time for many people to see such a decisive hero!

After Du Xinwu killed the bandits, he came to the back mountain dungeon and rescued the common people who were raised as livestock.

A moment ago, some people were complaining that the protagonist was too vicious, but now seeing the civilians being kept as meat, everyone felt that it was a good kill!

Among the rescued people was a little girl carved in jade.

The little girl's parents were eaten, and she was homeless, so Du Xinwu took her by his side and accepted her as an apprentice.

The girl is practicing martial arts hard in the courtyard. She is a bit naughty and likes to stir up dust when practicing martial arts.

A cloud of dust rose up, and when the dust dissipated, Jiang Rou, played by Liu Yifei, walked out of it.

In a transition, the girl has grown up, and more than ten years have passed.

Jiang Rou walked up to the 44-year-old Du Xinwu and asked, "Master, what is kung fu?"

Du Xinwu was straight, like a javelin, and he replied: "What is Kung Fu? It's very simple. Kung Fu is killing skills!"

As soon as this sentence comes out, the prelude ends.The song of "Not Calling Xia" sounded, and the opening title of the movie started.

This prelude alone gave the audience a lot of surprises, and the idea of ​​the whole story came out. It is simple and clear, kung fu is a killing technique, and there is no hypocritical moral connotation.

The content of the movie screenings later also confirmed this point. Du Xinwu is insidious and cunning, and can kill people in various ways.

The cruelty of Kung Fu is fully displayed.

But the audience doesn't hate it, because although Du Xin's five methods are not bright, they do good things. Whether it is protecting revolutionary fighters or caring for ordinary people, they have achieved the demeanor of a chivalrous man.

He himself has the reputation of a hero from the north and south, but he always reminds his apprentices not to be kidnapped by the name of a hero. It is not easy to be a hero. The three words he often talks about are "not to be called a hero".

This kind of protagonist is very rare, but the audience has a sense of substitution. One is because it is true. It was explained before the film was screened that this film is adapted from the real experience of Du Xinwu, a martial arts master of Natural Gate.

The second is because of the coolness. Du Xinwu hardly suffers in the whole film. He abuses others. This kung fu film is cool from beginning to end.

The fighting action is beautiful, the plot is simple and exciting, and the audience is very enjoyable to watch.

After the film ended, the nunchuck singing sounded, and the theater naturally burst into applause.

Judging from the enthusiastic response of the audience, Du Xinwu's movie was very successful!
On January 1th, Jiang Changsheng flew to Hong Kong Island again to attend Du Xinwu's Hong Kong premiere.

On the 31st, on New Year's Eve, Jiang Changsheng sang the song "Not Calling Heroes" at the Spring Festival Gala, letting more people know about Du Xinwu's movie.

On February 2st, Du Xinwu was screened simultaneously in three places on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

The domestic box office exceeded 2500 million in the first week!It is a full 1000 million higher than Feng Pants' New Year's movie mobile phone released at the end of the year!
There was an uproar in the industry, because Du Xinwu's investment was only 1000 million, and it was a pure kung fu movie.

In recent years, kung fu movies have gradually declined, and there are not many people making them anymore.

Moreover, the word-of-mouth of Du Xinwu's movie does not seem to be very good. Many film critics criticized this movie for being simple and crude, without connotation. Some people even reported this movie, saying that it promotes violence.

The film critics cheered, but the audience was very real.

Du Xinwu's movie is enjoyable enough. A martial arts master who never suffers a disadvantage, uses eighteen kinds of martial arts to return as a king in the arena, all kinds of pretense and punching faces, men like this plot.

As for the female audience, with Jiang Changsheng's good looks, female audiences are indispensable.

Jiang Changsheng also made good use of Internet publicity, and Hou Liangliang's navy team was very active, using various angles on Tianya to increase the popularity of the movie.

In the second week of its release, Du Xinwu's box office rose instead of falling, reaching 2600 million. After the third week, the box office dropped significantly, only 1900 million.

Du Xinwu's movie was screened in the mainland for 42 days, with a cumulative box office of 1.03 million yuan, and the real box office was 9900 million yuan. The last point is a fake.

After all, there is still a big difference between movies with a box office of less than [-] million.

The film was released on Hong Kong Island for 60 days, with a cumulative box office of 4300 million Hong Kong Island dollars.

On February 2, Du Xinwu was released in Omi at the same time. Omi audiences watch kung fu movies just to watch the fighting scenes, and not many people pay attention to the plot. Du Xinwu fits this point. The plot is relatively simple, with many fighting scenes and endless tricks.

Moreover, Jiang Changsheng was already very popular in Omi, and many audiences went to the movie theater for him. It happened that Jiang Changsheng's fighting movements in the movie were chic and fierce, which was very suitable for the appetite of Omi people.

Du Xinwu's movie has a high reputation in Omi.

The film finally earned 8800 million yuan at the box office in Omi, a very auspicious figure, and Max Co. made another fortune.

Because of this, Jiang Changsheng became popular again in Omi. Some people have compared him with Cheng Long and Li Lianjie, saying that he is a new generation of kung fu superstar in Huaguo.

In terms of comprehensive fame, he has surpassed Cheng Long in Omi, and is more popular than Yao Ming, because he is not only a singer, a writer, but also a Kung Fu star, belonging to the three-dimensional development.

Moreover, all three items are top talents, and Omi people's favorite is the strong character design.

In addition to Omi, Du Xinwu's performance in East Asia and Southeast Asia is also very good. The most unexpected thing is in Dongying, where the box office is as high as 45 billion Dongying coins, which is equivalent to about 3 million Hua Guoyuan (the exchange rate at the time).

Jiang Changsheng couldn't understand the brain circuit of Dongying people. They were all villains in the movie, and they liked watching it so much. Could it be that they really have a hobby of being tortured?

Du Xinwu's film has only invested tens of millions, and it has achieved such brilliant results. It has already made a lot of money at the box office alone, and there will be DVD sales and other proceeds in the future.

Jiang Changsheng became a favorite in the film industry, and his salary also skyrocketed.

The happiest is Cheng Long, whose new police story is considered a miss.

But all of this has nothing to do with Jiang Changsheng, he is very headstrong, since February 2th, he ended the film promotion, came to Hengdian, and joined the production team of Legend of Sword and Fairy.
