Fifth, Square Games Japan has completed the final testing of "Street Fighter" and is about to be packaged and launched. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Masashi Miyamoto sent an invitation, hoping that if he had time in the summer, he would come to Japan in person to help promote the publicity.

Summer is very popular in Japan, and he is a martial arts master himself, so if he promotes this game, it will definitely sell very well.

However, although he was full of sincerity, Summer still ruthlessly refused. He is now focused on acquiring Columbia-Samsung Pictures, and really doesn't have the energy to go to Japan to promote the Street Fighter game.

In addition to the above five things, there are nearly 100 other things, which do not need to be repeated.

After reading it all in the summer, it's almost time to get off work.

Although his eyes were dry, his shoulders were sore, and his waist was stiff, he was in a very good mood. Because he saw the good news just now, and seeing that the company's various businesses are thriving, he is of course in a very good mood.

"Haah~" Summer stretched a long lazy waist, ready to get off work early and go to see Lin Qingxia. I haven't seen her for a long time, and I'm very worried about her.

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly, "Boss, Director Wang Jing wants to see you!" After pressing the answer button, the secretary Sandy asked.

"Ask him to come in. Summer was stunned for a moment, and then said.

Then as soon as the door opened, Wang Jing walked in from the outside and greeted respectfully, "Mr. Xia, hello!"

"Director Wang, please take a seat~" Summer smiled, "Tea or coffee?"

"No need, no need, I'm here to ask Mr. Xia to take a look at my new script. Wang Jing hurriedly waved his hand.

"Oh, I'm going to make a new film so soon, why don't you take two more days off?" Xia was stunned and said with a smile.

Wang Jing is a workaholic, filming is like playing with his life, at most, he has filmed eleven dramas a year. On average, he can shoot a movie a month, which is simply an iron man.

After filming "Ghost Hunting", he said that he would take a break for a while. I didn't expect it to be only two months, and I immediately thought about tinkering with a new work, and I really couldn't be idle.

"No rest, enough rest. Wang Jing said with a smile.

After he finished filming "Ghost Hunting", he specially accompanied his family to a luxury tour of Europe. United Kingdom, France, Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy...... After walking around the whole circle, touring the mountains and rivers and watching the scenery, don't enjoy it too much.

Of course, money is also spent like running water. This round of shopping down, it cost him a small two million. When I was playing, I was in the mood, and I didn't think too much about it, and I didn't know the pain when I went home. So I immediately pondered a script and wanted to fill the gap. When I heard the news that summer was back, I immediately brought it to him.

"Oh, it seems that luxury travel in Europe is really fun. Summer laughed.

"Yes, Mr. Xia, you should really go for a walk when you have time, it's really beautiful over there. Wang Jing nodded with a smile and said, "If it weren't for my roots in Hong Kong, I would want to live there for a long time and not leave." ”

"Really?" Xia smiled, took Wang Jing's script, and was stunned when he saw the name. I saw three big words written on the cover - "Hong Xiguan"!

……

It is difficult to say whether Hong Xiguan really had a person in ancient times, but there are many folk tales about him in Fujian and Guangdong.

Legend has it that he was one of the founders of Hongquan, who once studied martial arts in Shaolin Temple, and was known as the Shaolin Ten Tigers with Fang Shiyu, Hu Huiqian, Lu Acai, etc. Later, he led the civil armed forces to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty, and was a well-known national hero.

In the 40s, the Hong Kong film industry has already filmed "Hong Xiguan's Blood Splashed in Liujia Village", "Fang Shiyu Saves Hong Xiguan", "Wing Chun Sanniang and Hong Xiguan", "Fang Shiyu and Hong Xiguan" and so on.

Although the influence of Hong Xiguan's series of movies is not as good as that of the Wong Fei Hung series, it can be regarded as a well-known IP with the potential for adaptation.

In the summer, I still remember that in my previous life, Wang Jing had filmed a "Hong Xiguan", also known as "New Shaolin Five Ancestors". That movie starred Kung Fu Emperor Li Lianjie and the beautiful Qiu Shuzhen, although the story is a little weaker, but the fights are quite exciting, and it can be called a quite classic martial arts film.

It's just that I don't know if the current "Hong Xiguan" is the same as the version in the previous life.

Thinking about it, Summer opened the script and read it carefully.

After reading the whole story, he knew it in his heart.

This version of "Hong Xiguan" is almost the same as the version in the previous life, it is the story of Hong Xiguan's rebellion against the Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, the righteous rescue of the five ancestors of Shaolin, and the killing of the traitor Ma Ning'er.

However, there are still differences in the details. In the original version, Ma Ninger fell into the wax pool and was cast into a wax figure. However, in this version, he is crushed alive by a steam engine into a meatloaf.

"Hey, this villain's death is relatively new. Summer laughed.

"yes, I borrowed it from the Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster 'The Terminator.' Wang Jing smiled and explained, "That Ma Ning'er is invulnerable, and even explosives can't kill him, which is very similar to the T-800 in "Terminator". So I set this ending for the T-800 according to the way he died. ”

"Clever!" Summer couldn't help but smile and nod when she heard this.

He remembered that in the original version of "Hong Xiguan", Ma Ning'er's death of falling into the wax pool seemed to be a reference to "Terminator 2".

The original "Hong Xiguan" was a work of the 90s, when "Terminator 2" was born, which was the most sensational science fiction film at the time, with a global box office of $516 million, and was the box office champion of the year.

Hong Kong filmmakers, who have always liked to follow the trend, will certainly not miss this classic, so parodying "Terminator 2" became popular at that time.

Zhou Xingchi once spoofed "Terminator 2" in "92 Happy Events" and "King of Destruction". And Wang Jing, who has always liked to follow the trend, is of course no exception, and has used the elements of "Terminator 2" in "Hong Xiguan" and "Truant Weilong 2".

Now "Terminator 2" has not been filmed, but "Terminator 1" has already been filmed. Although the box office is not as shocking as the sequel, it is also a very high-grossing sci-fi film that is very popular with fans.

Especially the robot T-800, who can't die no matter how he fights, is ruthless, and is bent on hunting the heroine, and he drags and cools the sky, leaving an unusually deep impression.

Therefore, when Wang Jing wrote about Ma Ning's childhood, who also couldn't be killed or blown up, he borrowed the death method of the T-800 in "Terminator", which is not unusual.

……

"Mr. Xia, do you think my script is okay?" Wang Jing asked with a smile again.

"Not bad. But who are you going to invite to play this play?" asked Summer.

"Mr. Xia, in the first half of the year, didn't you sign the most popular martial arts star in the mainland, Li Lianjie, to your command, I think it is more appropriate for him to play it. Wang Jing hurriedly said.

Seven years ago, "Shaolin Temple" starring Li Lianjie was a smash hit, not only popular in the mainland, but also in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan and other places, and also hit a very high box office.

Kung Fu kid Li Lianjie became an instant hit and became a big star in East Asia. But it's a pity that the film industry in the mainland is not developed, and the follow-up works did not follow immediately. After making Li Lianjie popular for two or three years, he gradually became obsolete because he did not launch good works.

If it weren't for signing him back to Hong Kong in the summer, the Hong Kong film industry would have forgotten about this once smash hit kung fu star.

"Well, he's a good fit. Who are you going to invite to play the heroine?" asked Summer curiously.

"Would it be good to invite Miss Wang Taoxian to act?" Wang Jing asked.

"Xiaoxian?!" Summer was stunned.

The heroine of "Hong Xiguan", Hongdou, is a delicate, beautiful, and a little funny girl. The original version was played by the great beauty Qiu Shuzhen, but now it is not inappropriate to change Wang Jixian to play it.

"But Xiaoxian is too tall, the two of them stand together, they don't look like a couple at all. Summer said with a frown.

Wang Jixian's height is officially reported to be 1.72 meters, but in fact, Xia knows that her real height is 1.75 meters. And Li Lianjie's height, although he doesn't know the exact number, is just over 1.6 meters. The difference is ten centimeters, and it is still higher for women and lower for men.

If they are really playing together, then Li Lianjie will be lined up as a short man, where can he talk about the heroic style. Do you want Wang Qixian to be short every day to film, or give Li Lianjie a three-inch inner height.

"I hadn't thought about it. When Wang Jing heard this, he blinked, "Mr. Xia, how bad is it? Do you want to try the styling first, what if you do it?"

"In my opinion, forget it, don't let Xiaoxian act, I'll recommend another candidate to you. Summer waved his hand and said, "Zhang Min, who just starred in "Hardcover Chasing Girls 2", has you seen her, what do you think of her?"

"Zhang Min?!" Wang Jing was stunned, he was really not familiar with her. Because he had just returned from a trip to Europe.

"The "Hardcover Chasing Girl 2" she is starring in is still in theaters, you can go and see her. I think she's good, beautiful, and willing to endure hardships. Usually girls can't shoot fights, but I know she can. Summer suggested again.

"Since Mr. Xia said yes, it must be wrong. Wang Jing saw that Xia recommended Zhang Min so strongly, his eyes lit up, and he immediately said with a smile.

In fact, he is not picky about celebrities, and he will use whoever is popular. Although he can't bring out the best acting skills of the actors, he can make them contribute qualified performances.

Since Zhang Min was recommended in the summer, he must have an unusual relationship with him. In that case, then use it yourself, anyway, who doesn't use it.

"Good. Summer nodded, and then said, "In addition, I suggest that Ye Dexian play the thief woman, and Wu Mengda play Ma Dashanren." ”

"I think it's doable. Wang Jing nodded, very satisfied with these two characters.

"Then who are you going to invite to play?" said Xia again.
