The film "Hoa Ngoai Duong" starring Zhao Liying is becoming the center of attention of the audience. Currently, the project has collected more than 81 million yuan (as of April 8, there are no statistics, the figure predicted by the media could exceed 100 million yuan). Compared to the capital spent of 15 million yuan, Zhao Liying's film has a solid profit.
However, there are still many controversies. Accordingly, since its announcement, the film has attracted great attention. Even outstanding shows like "Sisters Riding the Wind Season 6" cannot attract the media with Zhao Liying's project.
However, when the film was released, some opinions said that Zhao Liying's performance and acting were not as good as Lan Tay Nha and Wang Cuc (2 other actresses in the film).
However, if we look at it realistically, the film "Hoa Hoang Duong" was released on the occasion of the Lunar New Year, this is not a big holiday of the year, the number of days off is also limited, so Trieu Le Dinh's film has not been able to surpass a large audience.
Moreover, "Hoa Ngoai Duong" is a film that is quite picky about the audience when choosing a drama film genre, talking about the life of a female prisoner. Therefore, the number of audiences who love the film is not high.
On the other hand, this is a low-cost project, not a blockbuster investment in terms of special effects, with a setting of up to hundreds of millions of yuan. That is shown in the fact that, after only 2 -3 days of showing, the film has regained its capital and started to make a profit.
Therefore, comparing the 15 million yuan film "Hoa Ngoai Duong" with huge investment blockbusters in Chinese cinema is a bit boring.
However, to be fair in this project, Trieu Le Dinh is still a popular star, acting well, but her performance is not as good as previous films such as: "The 20th Article", "The Confessions of Kieu Nghieng"... In this project, the actress is quite safe, her dialogue is controversial...
Therefore, it is unreasonable to say that Zhao Liying's performance in this project is declining or stagnating. If we only consider the revenue, it is clear that "Hoa Hoang Duong" is making quite a good amount of money compared to the budget spent by the crew.
