Hong Jinbao's unpopular disciple has set a new Hong Kong box office record.

Now Hong Jinbao no longer star in movies, but he is still a very vocal person in the entertainment industry. The development of Hong Kong's movie has made a certain contribution, even now he no longer appear in the big screen, but as long as he said the words are still very weighty. Sammo Hung has made a lot of actors famous, but he also has the time of poor eyesight. Once he said in front of the media that his least optimistic disciple was Liu Guanwei, but he did not expect this disciple to set a new box office record in Hong Kong.

Liu Guanwei had been working as a cameraman before, and he was very interested in directing after being exposed to the camera set. He told Sammo Hung he didn't want to be a cameraman, he wanted to be a director and have a movie he shot himself.

We all know that making a movie is not an easy thing to do, in addition to a certain amount of talent and professional knowledge, but also need to talk about luck and strength, some people shoot a lifetime of drama have not been successful, while some people once on the altar.

This "Mr. Zombie" took a year to create and only three months to complete when it was filmed. Sammo Hung was prepared to lose money, and as a new director, his first time, he had been because the movie might cost the company money.

Liu Guanwei, who was under great pressure, still finished shooting Mr. Zombie, but the good thing is that the result was optimistic, Mr. Zombie had very good reviews, and sold more than 20 million dollars at the box office in Hong Kong at that time.

Liu Guanwei was also honored as the "originator" of the zombie film. He showed a lot of genius in "Mr. Zombie". The design of "zombie jumping", using glutinous rice, ink threads, and holding one's breath to deal with zombies has been used in all subsequent zombie movie followers. Although "Mr. Zombie" is a horror film, Liu Guanwei added a lot of comedy elements in the film, which largely dissolved the horror atmosphere of the movie.

In the era when Hong Kong films were prevalent, zombie films opened the door to the world of fantasy, and for many post-80s, the zombie films of the Lam Ching-ying series should be the most profound collective memories, in addition to the comedies of Mr. Sing.

Liu Guanwei is the more characteristic ghost film director in the eighties, "Mr. Zombie", "Mr. Spirit Fantasy", "Ghost Bites Ghost", "Mr. New Zombie" and so on are all from his hand. These films may seem like classics now, but sadly, except for a few, most of the rest of the ghosts and monsters movies were average returns.

But Liu Guanwei's status in zombie movies is no less than that of Lin Zhenying. It's just that not a lot of people know about him because he's behind the scenes. In later years, because of the decline of zombie films, Liu Guanwei seldom made similar movies again.

But in the past few years, he occasionally made a comeback, "Four Eyes" and "Mr. One Eyebrow" are all from him.

The much-anticipated psychic film "Mr. One Eyebrow" is another collaboration between the two veteran partners, Chien Siu Ho and Lau Kwun Wai.

Its mere 3.7 rating on Douban also heralded "Mr. One Eyebrow" as a total flop!

After the death of Lin Zhengying, the careers of Qian Xiaohao and Liu Guanwei took a sharp turn for the worse, partly because of the absence of a leader, and partly because of the fact that psychic movies were no longer popular. After the two have worked together several times, and even tirelessly and repeatedly under the banner of Lin Zhengying fried cold rice, but ultimately failed to rise again!

Director Liu Guanwei probably can not figure out, that belongs to the golden age of zombie movies, has long been with Lin Zhengying, Xu Guanying, Wu Ma's passing away, relying on speculation, simply fried back, the old feelings, should be left to the old times.

Maybe it can't keep up with the trend of the times, or maybe it's a jungle, in short, these two movies suck.
