Li Qiye said to Xu Qian: "I didn't expect that there would be an opponent in our June file!"
Xu Qian nodded and said, "Who is it?"
Li Qiye said: "It's Yuan Datou!"
"Yuan Datou?"
Xu Qian's mind came up with Yuan Datou's information!
This is another director of Hong Kong's golden age, that era is really starry, and there are countless famous directors!
Yuan Datou is one of the most powerful directors in Hong Kong's golden age!
However, Xu Qian has met more than Yuan Datou in Hong Kong so far, whether it is Wong Tai Sin or Wang Fatzi, they are not lost to Yuan Datou in terms of strength!
The only thing these two people are afraid of losing to Yuan Datou is their qualifications, because Yuan Datou has become famous in the seventies, and these people can only be regarded as his juniors!
There are two types of genres that Yuan Datou is good at shooting, these two categories are martial arts films and kung fu films, in fact, these two types of films have a lot in common, and they can basically coincide!
And Yuan Datou is also very proficient in martial arts instructors, he is one of the initiators of domestic martial arts instructors, known as the first martial arts instructor, and the former Hollywood crew has also invited him to be a martial arts instructor, and he is extremely powerful!
The influence of such a person with deep qualifications, wide connections, and peach and plum all over the world is still very terrifying!
And the movie he shot this time is called "Dragon and Tiger 2"!
That's right, it's a sequel, and it's a sequel for the first time in many years!
"Dragon and Tiger" is an excellent movie!
As you can see from the awards it won, "Dragon and Tiger" has a number of award-winning records, including 4 awards including the 73rd Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, and it is also the first film in the history of Chinese film to win the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film!
Of course, Xu Qian doesn't like this film, because this is a movie of Western values dressed in the skin of Chinese culture!
This movie made him, a native of the East, very awkward to watch!
Yes, it's awkward!
Because it doesn't match his own values!
"Dragon and Tiger" is indeed an excellent film, whether it is the picture quality, or the photography, or the action design, and the acting skills of the actors have reached the peak!
But the success of "Dragon and Tiger" does not mean that "Dragon and Tiger 2" can also be as successful as it once was!
Especially if the director has changed!
Yes, Yuan Datou is not the director of the original "Dragon and Tiger"!
It turns out that the director of "Dragon and Tiger" is Li Chuang, this gentleman is one of the most powerful directors in Baodao, and he has also made a name for himself in the world!
Yuan Datou is still a long way away from Li Chuang!
This distance is not something that can be easily erased!!!!!!!!
And Xu Qian didn't think that Yuan Datou would be able to succeed this time!
First of all, this is a sequel movie, and it would have worked well if it had been released immediately after the huge success of "Dragon and Tiger" that year!
However, it is inevitable that it will be a little unwise to launch it after many years!
What's more, sequel movies are generally criticized, used to compare with the original, and people will pick bones in eggs!
Secondly, it is determined by the attributes of "Dragon and Tiger" itself, "Dragon and Tiger" is very famous and has a certain reputation in the West!
But there are not many loyal fans in China!
First of all, of course, the values are different, an oriental martial arts movie with Western values, many people watch it very awkwardly!
Secondly, this is a literary film, this is an award-winning film!
Li Chuang himself is a famous director of literary films, he has also filmed commercial films, but they have all hit the streets, so he also understands his shortcomings, and knows that he can't play commercial films, so he still shoots literary films honestly, so at least he can keep his reputation!
Literary films win awards, not box office earnings!
Therefore, there must be a weakness at the box office, and even with the blessing of the awards, it may not be able to achieve a high box office!
This is determined by the nature of the film!
And Yuan Datou will encounter a problem when he takes over the filming of "Dragon and Tiger"!
Nima, do you continue to follow Li Chuang's routine to make literary films? But he is not good at him, because Yuan Datou was born in commercial films, and he is not good at literary films!
But if it is made into a commercial film, will people feel uncomfortable and think that he is desecrating the film?
If you want to preserve the commercial attributes and add some literary and artistic attributes, it is easy to make four dislikes, and this kind of advanced skill is not something that Yuan Datou can control, after all, countless big directors have failed!!!!!
Therefore, according to the above thinking, Xu Qian feels that this "Dragon and Tiger" is a big pit, and in the end, it is better not to step on it, it can be said that without the diamond diamond, don't take the porcelain work!
And to put it mildly, in today's era, it is becoming more and more difficult for Chinese films to win awards, even if they are filmed at the level of the year, they may not be able to win awards, this is a change of the times!
Li Qiye said: "Tianyu is really a ghost and a ghost this time, and he actually wants to cooperate with Yuan Datou!"
"Is it Tianyu?"
Xu Qian didn't expect that this time Yuan Datou's cooperation was Tianyu!
At the beginning, Li Qiye jumped from Tianyu, and then after going beyond entertainment, he played a huge role, and in the last negotiation of "Tucao Conference", he took the aura of mental retardation to the extreme, which led to the success of the negotiation!
also encountered Brother Li, Brother Li immediately filmed "My Sassy Girlfriend" after jumping to Beyond Entertainment, and now Brother Li is already a superstar in civilized Asia!
Although these two people were not so awesome when they were in Tianyu, it was Xu Qian's best use of them that made them achieve great success!
But Tianyu didn't think so, they felt that Xu Gan was not authentic, and dug up their two cash cows, and this feud was settled!
Of course, Xu Qian is no longer what it used to be, no matter how he says it, he is also a bigwig-level figure, even Tianyu does not dare to deal with him blatantly and target him!
This time it's probably a small strategy used by Tianyu!
They didn't make stumbling blocks against Xu Qian in secret, but openly confronted Xu Gan!
This method is actually okay, it is a head-to-head competition, and it is much better than those who use intrigue and trickery in secret!
Xu Qian said: "It's okay, I finally have a decent opponent!"
The June file is very low-key, and since "Ip Man" was announced to be released in June, there have been almost no decent movies!
And now there is finally one!
Li Qiye looked at Xu Qian and said, "How is it?
"Scared? That's a joke。。。。。。。。。 ”
Xu Qian said: "I'm not even afraid of Chen Xuanli, I'm still afraid of him!"
Xu Qian's only opponent in the mainland market is Chen Xuanli, the first director in China!
As for those directors in Hong Kong's glorious era, they have basically declined or are not adaptable, and they are no longer majestic!
Xu Qian is not afraid of these people!
Because he knows that these people are just paper tigers!
"Haha, this is the Director Xu I know!"
Li Qiye laughed and laughed!
Xu Qian's impression in Li Qiye's impression has always been so confident and fearless!
However, in Li Qiye's opinion, Xu Qian does have arrogant and domineering capital, because he has not tasted defeat since his debut, and it is not impossible to describe him as a lonely defeater!
"He won't be defeated this time!"
Li Qiye was full of confidence in Xu Qian!!!!!!!
