Chapter 590: A Trip to Xiangjiang (9)

Unlike the situation in the mainland, there are no third-party film and television cities in Hong Kong.

As early as the twenties and thirties of the last century, film companies in Heung Kong began to appear, flourished in the sixties and seventies, and reached their peak in the eighties and nineties.

At that time, the number of films produced by Xiangjiang in a year reached the second place in the world, second only to Hollywood in the United States.

Since many film companies are family-owned and accustomed to working in silos, the big studios have their own studios, and many of these studios are concentrated in the Kowloon Tong area.

Over time, Kowloon Tong has become the film and television shooting base of Xiangjiang, especially after entering the new century, Xiangjiang films have declined, many film companies have closed down, and the big film companies that can't support it have also tried their best to save costs, and many studios have been merged or rented out, forming today's pattern.

Garbo Pictures' studio is not the largest in it, but the facilities and equipment are relatively advanced compared to its peers, so according to the plan, some of the shots of "Across the Seas" were shot on Garbo studios.

In fact, the facilities of Yanjing Film and Television City are better than here, but Garbo also has its own advantages.

First of all, Garbo Pictures has made many action movies about police and gangsters, and the quantity and quality of props are very high, especially in terms of firearms and weapons, which are rich in variety, which is very suitable for the filming needs of "Across the Seas".

Secondly, Garbo Pictures has an experienced team of martial artists and stunts, which has a great advantage in action scenes, and the experience of using Weiya is stronger than that in China.

WIA was first invented by the martial arts director of Xiangjiang, and has now become an indispensable tool in the shooting of many films at home and abroad.

When Luo Kai came to Garbo on the set, an action scene was being filmed in the studio.

In front of a huge green screen backdrop, several actors are hoisted high by tightropes, wearing ancient costumes and holding swords flying back and forth, looking quite thrilling.

And there are more than a dozen people below who are in a fierce battle, and the sound of swords and swords and shadows shouting is quite intense.

Sun Xiuwen introduced: "This is the "Oriental Swordsman" we are filming, which is ready to be released in April. ”

Luo Kai nodded.

He could see that what the other party was shooting was not a martial arts movie, but a popular Xianxia movie.

In the seventies and eighties, martial arts films were quite popular in Xiangjiang, but they were quickly replaced by police and gangster films, and now these two types of action shootout movies are also not good.

Garbo Pictures is obviously chasing a new trend in film, so it shoots this new type of film that is quite popular among young people.

But to be honest, Luo Kai is not very optimistic about Garbo Pictures' efforts.

Because in recent years, most of the domestic Xianxia films have hit the streets, and several Xianxia films with an investment of more than 100 million yuan have all been dismal at the box office, although he does not know much about the film market in Xiangjiang, the trend of the market is still quite clear.

The most important thing is that if there is no big investment in Xianxia films, they really can't make good films, especially the investment in special effects must be high, otherwise it will be difficult to be recognized by today's audiences with high vision.

Of course, Luo Kai would not say these words in front of Sun Xiuwen, that would be too rude.

So after watching quietly for a while, he and Sun Xiuwen went to another studio connected to the studio - the training hall of the Jiabao martial arts class.

The area of the training hall is about the same as that of the studio, which is mainly divided into two areas, with three practice rings in the east and a lot of fitness equipment in the west, including the wooden stakes that Luo Kai is most familiar with.

In the ring, two pairs of martial artists were fighting back and forth, and there were more than a dozen people practicing equipment, most of them were young, wearing tight vests or practice clothes, and their muscles were bulging and strong.

"Daddy!"

To Luo Kai's surprise, Sun Xiuwen actually shouted at a man standing in front of the ring.

The other party looked to be no more than forty years old, not tall but with knotted muscles at the waist, wearing a black vest and shorts, revealing thick arms and thighs covered with tattoos, looking very strong.

Hearing Sun Xiuwen's call, he turned around, a doting smile appeared on his rough face, and strode over and asked, "Wenwen, why did you come here?"

Luo Kai noticed that Wu Jiarong and Wu Shao, who had been following him closely, quietly retreated at the same time as the other party came over, and actually hid behind him.

The rough man stood still in front of Luo Kai, his eagle-like gaze fell on him, and he suddenly frowned and asked, "Wenwen, is this beautiful boy your boyfriend?"

"Daddy..."

Sun Xiuwen showed a helpless expression and said angrily: "What are you talking nonsense, this is Mr. Luo Kai from the capital, didn't I tell you a few days ago?"

"Oh..."

The rough man suddenly said: "I remembered, I was filming with us." ”

Sun Xiuwen introduced Luo Kai: "Mr. Luo, this is my father Sun Yongjie, and he is also the head of our Jiabao martial arts class. ”

"Hello Master Sun..."

Luo Kai took a step forward and took the initiative to stretch out his hand to the other party: "When we meet for the first time, please take care of me." ”

Sun Yongjie stretched out his calloused hand and shook Luo Kai: "You are the director of "Across the Seas"?"

Luo Kai smiled: "Yes." ”

The next moment, he felt that something was wrong, because the leader of the Jiabao martial arts class not only did not let go of his hand, but also increased the strength of his hand, and there was a hint of banter in his eyes.

Is this a disadvantage?

Luo Kai kept smiling and kept shaking hands, as if he didn't notice Sun Yongjie's small movements at all.

But Sun Xiuwen quickly noticed the abnormality, and immediately raised her eyebrows: "Daddy!"

Sun Yongjie immediately let go of his hand and said with a dry smile: "The young man is good, do you have a girlfriend?"

At this moment, the young martial artists who were exercising before came over one after another, and the sparring in the ring also stopped, throwing curious glances at this side.

Luo Kai keenly felt a hint of hostility from his surroundings.

He smiled faintly and said, "I have a girlfriend, thank you for your concern." ”

"I have a girlfriend..."

Sun Yongjie looked very sorry, and asked again: "Have you ever practiced martial arts?"

Just now he really wanted to give Luo Kai a little bit of power, but it didn't work at all, and he was a little unhappy.

Luo Kai said calmly: "I have practiced." ”

"That's good..."

Sun Yongjie's eyes suddenly lit up: "Let's go up and learn?"

Sun Xiuwen was angry: "Daddy!"

As a result, a young martial artist next to him shouted, "Master, let me practice with him." ”

Sun Yongjie smacked his lips and said, "It's okay..."

He smiled at his daughter: "Wenwen, you don't have to worry, Hui Zai is measured, and he promises not to hurt us, a distinguished guest from the capital." ”
