Tran Thanh shared that he really liked actor Quang Trung's wish when he wished the movie "The Four Guardians" to reach the trillion-dong mark.

Tran Thanh affirmed that he dreams of becoming the first director to achieve a trillion-dollar revenue with a film.

"The Guardian Quartet" of Tran Thanh is expected to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Unlike “Mai” - a work in which Tran Thanh tried to demonstrate his directing and professional abilities with shots, angles, and scripts about human fate, “The Four Guardians” is purely an entertainment film.

“The Four Guardians” revolves around the love triangle between Quoc Anh (Quoc Anh), Quynh Anh (Tieu Vy) and Karen (Ky Duyen). Interwoven into their love story is the “mischief” of supporting actors such as Tran Thanh, Le Giang, Uyen An, Le Duong Bao Lam...

“The Four Guardians” will have a relative advantage in terms of audience attraction compared to “Mai”. If “Mai” is rated 18+, restricting the audience’s age because of hot scenes, “The Four Guardians” is rated 16+, the film has a wider audience’s age.

“The Four Guardians” is a purely entertaining film. The film brings together a new cast of actors, with outstanding good looks and a large fan base. In particular, Tran Thanh “smartly” attracted the Say Hi Brothers to participate with interesting cameo roles, such as Quan AP, Ali Hoang Duong, Hung Huynh, Pham Anh Duy...

The "Guardian Quartet" also uses the music of Say Hi Brothers such as Captain Boy, Erik... and inserts many songs that "stormed" the music viewing and listening market in 2024 of Say Hi Brothers.

Tran Thanh's calculations are clearly revealed in "The Four Guardians" with many different ways to attract audiences, from "taking advantage" of the attraction of Say Hi Brother, to inviting the cast. performer all beauty queen

However, “The Four Guardians” will also have disadvantages compared to “Mai”. As a purely entertaining film, “The Four Guardians” will hardly create explosive debates about the script and Tran Thanh’s directing skills like “Mai” did.

When “Mai” was released, it created an overwhelming impression, swept all the theaters, dominated all discussions and controversies on social media platforms. The main reason is that “Mai” is considered Tran Thanh’s first work. The audience divided into factions arguing whether “Mai” is really excellent, whether it is a good movie or not, what kind of director Tran Thanh is when handling the storytelling in “Mai”... has created a “huge” attraction for the film.

The more heated the debate, the more people will spend money to see “Mai”. That is certainly what “Mai” can do better than other films.

“Mai” dominates the 2024 Lunar New Year screening room because other works have difficulty competing. “Sang den”, “Dao, pho va piano”, and “Gap lai chi bau” are not highly rated, while “Bo qua bao thu” this year will have to compete in theaters with more formidable opponents, such as “Yeu ma ban than” with the participation of “hundred billion beauty” Kaity Nguyen, or “Nu hon bac bac” by the talented producer Thu Trang.

Therefore, although Tran Thanh "calculated" many "tricks" to attract audiences for "The Four Guardians", whether the film can reach the trillion-dollar mark or not is still a big question.
