"I think it's better for some directors to focus on the film itself..."

Chen Kun said it very bluntly.

He is not a good stubble, when "Looking for the Dragon" was released, Brother Kun reprinted the bad reviews of "Nine-Story Demon Tower", of course, deleted it afterwards...

Shen Ming couldn't help but answer: "Making a movie is a very complicated and difficult thing, you need to be very serious about every detail, I can only say that in places where the audience can't see, there are still too many things to do in domestic films." ”

"Thank you two for the interview!"

At the end of the interview, Chen Kun specially invited Shen Ming to a nearby private club...

I looked at the decoration of the clubhouse, which was purely Japanese.

The two sat down, and after a while, two girls in kimonos walked in, and Chen Kun directly asked them to leave...

Although these two girls are wearing kimonos, nine times out of ten are Chinese, because the legs are very long, the neon Nagada girl, the legs are particularly short, their aesthetic is like that, I think the girl who is five or five open is the cutest!

So, Arina、Sakura's legs are not very long...

Retracting his reluctant gaze, Shen Ming asked, "Brother Kun, do you have something to do with me?"

“… Something!"

Chen Kun and Shen Ming have known each other for a long time, and in "Hot Pot Hero", he took Shen Ming to act...

Therefore, chatting with him, Chen Kun didn't bother to make it so vain, and went straight to the topic.

"You say!"

"Do you know Xu Haofeng?"

Shen Ming thought for a few seconds, and then replied: "Is it the director of "Master", Xu Haofeng?"

"Yes, that's him!"

"Then I know, what, what you want to talk about has something to do with him?"

……

Xu Haofeng is a professor in Nortel's directing department.

This name is more well-known after the release of Wang Jiawei's "The Grandmaster", and he served as the screenwriter of the film together with Zou Jingzhi and Wang Jiawei.

In 2014, his other martial arts "Taoist Priest Descending the Mountain" was adapted and filmed into a movie by Chen Kaige...

In fact, as a director, so far, he has made four works, "The Trail of the Widow", "The Arrow Warrior Willow White Ape", "Master" and "Hiding in the Back of the Knife"...

In addition to "Hiding in the Back of the Knife", the first three have all entered theaters!

"Hiding in the Back of the Knife" was filmed in 2017, won the Dragon Standard in September, and went to the Montreal Film Festival to win the Best Artistic Contribution Award.

Why has "Hiding in the Back of the Knife" never been able to enter theaters?

I don't know, no one knows...

However, the investment of "Hiding in the Back of the Knife" is as high as 80 million, and the producer must have some concerns...

After all, Xu Haofeng's previous three movies plus one piece, the box office was only 61.59 million...

But his movie, whether you like it or not, the audience and critics still recognize the "unique" martial arts temperament of Xu Hao's movie.

Let's say that Chinese martial arts movies have undergone the evolution of many genres.

Bruce Lee and Cheng Long belong to kung fu movies, no longer like this!

On martial arts alone: Hu Jinquan's poetic aesthetics, Zhang Che's masculinity and violence, Chu Yuan's strange and treacherous, Liu Jialiang's hard bridge and hard horse, Xu Laowei's modern connotation interpretation and so on.

Xu Haofeng's movie has no Wia, no special effects, and no basic moves.

It's two people facing each other, monkey-like constantly moving their feet to find each other's flaws, and there is an intermission, after the break, one move wins...

This kind of martial arts action design, the audience actually doesn't like to watch it, so many people feel that the fights in "Master" are particularly fake!

Martial arts, if you really want to talk about actual combat, is actually closer to sanda or free fighting, and there is almost no routine of blocking and counterattacking one move at a time.

But if it's for the sake of making a good movie, then you can also design some good-looking actions without worrying about whether the actions are real or not.

Director Xu's problem is that while playing the gimmick of restoring real kung fu and traditional martial arts, he also designs some unrealistic movements, which are actually not pleasing to both sides.

Although many people are desperately praising "Master", there are not many audiences who go to the theater to watch the movie!

Shen Ming had only heard of Xu Haofeng, and he didn't know anything about it...

……

""Poetry Eyes Tired of the World"?"

"Yes, it's a martial arts movie!"

Then Chen Kun roughly told the plot of "Poetry Eyes Tired of the World", the story of the swordsmen who made a living from the martial arts competition were involved in the dispute between the martial arts and the court...

After speaking, he looked at Shen Ming with a little expectation: "What do you think?"

“… This is Xu Haofeng's movie? How do I feel a bit like Zhang Che's martial arts?"

After hearing this story, Shen Ming's first reaction should it be fake?

Because Xu Haofeng has always only filmed the theme of the Republic of China...

"This is an attempt by him, and he also wants to add more entertainment and commercial elements to the movie!"

“… If you see it, if you continue to lose it, no one will look for him to film!"

Shen Ming picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then asked, "Why are you telling me this?"

“… Can you make a cameo?"

Shen Ming didn't think about it: "No problem!"

"I thought it was a big deal, you asked me to make a cameo, I definitely made a cameo... As long as you don't let me invest, it's all right!"

Chen Kun rolled his eyes, but he was still very happy: "It's good if you agree, you plus Zhou Xun should be enough." ”

"Zhou Xun also wants to make a cameo?"

“… She... She's a special star!"

"Understood, isn't it just a cameo, who is the female number one?"

"Little Song Jia. ”

Shen Ming complained: "Director Xu really likes to use an actor!"

It's not the same as the cannon glow...

Chen Kun thought for a while and replied, "Maybe I have met my own muse." ”

“… I can't say for sure!"

The so-called muse is the existence that inspires the creator.

The next topic is daily greetings, talk about work plans and so on...

Anyway, Brother Kun is probably the water reversal this year...

The ratings of "Tiansheng Long Song" set the lowest record on Mango Channel!

Some netizens made a picture of Chen Kun's performance in the 20 years since his debut, and concluded that the total box office of Chen Kun's movies is only 1 billion yuan...

starred in 19 TV series, in addition to "Tiansheng Long Song", there are also 5 bloody films...

Let's not mention the TV series, the total box office of the movie is 1 billion yuan?

What people say is very reasonable: in addition to the big IP "Looking for the Dragon" and the double heroine's "Painted Skin", the main Li Lianjie's "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", the total box office is really only 1 billion yuan...

In terms of awards, it is even worse, there is no one of the three golds, and Xiao Ming Huang's performance in winning awards is better than him.

Closing the coffin: "Marketing Coffee"!

Thanks to the "Crazy Call" at the end of the year, it once again proved that the acting skills still have a coffee position - "The Crazy Call", the beginning and end of the film are Chen Kun, and Mary is the second star.

In fact, Chen Kun's network resources far exceed most people's imagination, the first person of the young generation that the third master supported back then, otherwise, why did he designate him to star in "The Ballad of Yunshui" and "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic"?

He also has a good relationship with Xu Laowei...

Invested in Chen Guofu's Gongfu Films.

also has its own natal chart: Dongshen Pictures.

Dongshen Pictures was established by him and Zhou Xun, in addition to investing in the projects of the two, it also has a brokerage business, by the way, Ni Dahong is his signed artist!

Such a person will be Flop because of a "Tiansheng Long Song"?

There are still five projects to be filmed: "Onmyoji", "Fengshen Trilogy", "Nine Phantom Generals", "Folding City", and "Painted Skin 3"!
