By November 30, 2015, the comedy Goodbye Mr. Loser had got more than 1,400 million yuan in ticket sales.
It was amazing that a film with common actors who had their first shows in the film got such great success. What’s more, the actors were all stage performers and they improved their acting skills by making this film.
The comedy tells about a common middle-aged man who has no job but problems. He seems to be a loser in life and never gets any success. He causes many jokes and is laughed at a lot. And because of his bad luck, he feels upset most of the time. Later, a sudden accident changes his life and he starts to realize how important the family is to him.
Goodbye Mr. Loser was the first movie made by Mahua FunAge(开心麻花). The film came out on September 30, 2015. Because of its great success, the film company became famous overnight.
