Chapter 323 The most realistic entertainment industry
The premiere is over.
There was a lot of commotion in the auditorium.
Most of the people who came to watch the movie today are people in the film and television industry, although the professional level is different, and the character is also different, but after watching this movie, they all feel good.
The plot of this movie is very smooth, especially the funny fight scenes in it, which make people laugh, but Chen Long's agile skills are fully displayed in this movie.
Compared with Jackie Chan in the original version, Chen Long's kung fu is much higher than him, and the funny scenes are almost the same, but the fighting actions are much more clever.
If it weren't for the fact that the foreigner who played the villain couldn't cooperate with his fight, the fight scene between the two would definitely be more exciting.
But even so, the movie is amazing enough.
Nine out of ten action movies in China are costume films, and there are modern action movies, but there is not much difference between the fighting action and the style of costume films, not to mention that insiders have seen it, even laymen feel that the kind of one-sided fight is too insulting to IQ, and after Guo Dalu's "First Blood" was broadcast, the audience could be regarded as seeing the real modern style of fighting in their minds.
However, Quanhua has to produce hundreds of action movies every year, and it is impossible for every one of them to be performed by Guo Dalu, and it is impossible for each of them to reach the height of "The First Blood" and "Shaolin Temple".
Now the world's action movies since the advent of Guo Dalu's works, the entire martial arts have been shaken, some people of insight after watching Guo Dalu's action movies, they know that the original one-piece fighting action must not be able to do the extremely smooth and sharp style of play directed by Guo Dalu, whether it is the lens expression or the design of the action, they are not worse than Guo Dalu.
For this reason, the martial arts fingers of action movies have also begun to try innovative fighting design, but the martial arts design habits for many years have made it difficult for them to get rid of the previous fighting concept.
There have been a number of action movies recently, but none of them have been a real success.
Now Guo Dalu is coming with a new film from his junior brother, although the name is a changed comic work, but it is essentially an action movie, and this action movie is ingenious and adds a lot of comedy elements in it, the protagonist in it is different from the serious and cold protagonist in the past, but it is a bit funny, like a clown fighting with the enemy, completely subverting the protagonist template of the previous bitter and hateful, making this protagonist more down-to-earth, this kind of gag fight, more liked by everyone.
Watching movies, isn't it just for fun, always watching those bitter and hateful movies, everyone is a little tired of watching them, and occasionally watching some funny movies to spice it up, that's also a joy in a busy life.
This is also why the previous "East Becomes West" was so successful, the fast-paced life in this world makes people need a relaxing environment too much, and movies are the first choice, and comedy movies are especially liked by them.
If "Shaolin Temple" hadn't interspersed with comedy elements in the movie, it is estimated that it would not have such an amazing box office.
Compared with serious dramas, comedy movies are more popular with a wide range of audiences.
When filming this "City Hunter", Guo Dalu deliberately asked Chen Long to watch the comic version of this movie several times, pondering the temperament of the protagonist, when writing the script, the writing was extremely detailed, and it was almost written, after reading the script, whether it was the image of the protagonist or the supporting role, it was basically set up in the actor's mind, and Guo Dalu's repeated mentions, Chen Long, Guo Yunxia and their brains are not stupid, although they can't go to school and study, but they are much smarter than ordinary people in other things.
When this drama was first filmed, it was filmed on a cruise ship, Guo Dalu was on the cruise ship at that time, and he was involved in the shooting of basically every shot, and when Huang Botao led the crew to the film and television city to make up the shots, the fighting style of the whole movie was completely well-known to everyone, and they just need to keep it up.
When Guo Dalu looked at it after the shooting, Guo Dalu found that some of the fighting actions were designed by Pang Bao and Chen Long together, and the effect was very good.
The two of them have this kind of progress, which is exactly the result that Guo Dalu wants, he supports them out, leads the horse and sends a few steps, whether it is a dragon or a snake depends on their own, of course, if it really doesn't work, it will not be too late to help them when the time comes.
Because of Guo Dalu's requirements, Chen Long preliminarily determined his fighting style on the screen in this play, that is, try to focus on funny actions, be good at using the props around him as assistance, and try to suppress his true strength as much as possible, and try to make his image on the screen closer to ordinary people who know martial arts, rather than real martial arts masters.
Making a movie is making a movie, and a real fight is a real fight, and the two must be completely distinguished, Guo Dalu has already given them a good demonstration of this.
You can use real kung fu during the filming process, but it depends on the specific scene, and everything is mainly about taking care of the script, rather than deliberately showing your own kung fu.
Just like Guo Dalu, if he really shoots with all his strength, he can blow up his opponent with one punch, how can he shoot with all his strength?
The villain of this duel with Chen Long is a rough foreign actor, if the two really fight, Chen Long can kill him with one move, but for the needs of the plot, the two must be evenly matched, and they must be abused by the villain for a while, and finally they can turn the tables.
If this situation were put on traditional martial arts masters, they would never play this role, but Chen Long had already regarded himself as an actor in the film and television industry at this time, and he had no scruples about this.
Even Guo Dalu can say that he will die in the play, what can't he do?
Therefore, when filming this scene, Chen Long was extremely open, so that his expressions and movements were very well done, adding a lot of color to the whole movie.
If there is no accident, after the release of this drama, the reputation should not be too bad, and with an action actor with his own fighting style, it is difficult to think about it.
After the on-site screening, the host began to let the participants and the audience in the hall do some interactive programs, and then it was a lottery or something, it was very lively, and after the end, it was lunch time, and the organizer naturally wanted to invite these people to have a meal, Huang Botao as the director, these people were naturally dealt with by him, Guo Dalu was too lazy to mix with these people in the entertainment industry, and got up and left.
Many people who attended the premiere today came to Guo Dalu, and some people seemed to get acquainted with Guo Dalu, or wanted Guo Dalu to make a cameo in his own film, so that his starlight would also bring some luck to himself, but they didn't expect Guo Dalu to leave the stage so early, and these people were extremely disappointed.
After eating and drinking, many people at the scene returned to their residences and began to write film reviews, basically all of them praised, but some of them took the opportunity to scold Guo Dalu because they couldn't get used to Guo Dalu's words at the premiere, but they didn't mention a word about the pros and cons of the movie.
Three days later, "City Hunter" was released nationwide.
Because of the sufficient advertising, coupled with the gimmicks of "Guo Dalu's younger brothers and sisters dedicated", after the movie was screened, the attendance rate was extremely high, and after the audience watched it, the reputation of the movie gradually came out.
The funny fights in the film and the lust of the protagonist, as well as the performance of the heroine and heroine in it, all opened their eyes, and with the assistance of Guo Dalu and the popular student Zhang Ran, the box office of the movie exceeded 20 million on the first day
The production cost of this film only cost more than 7 million, and after all kinds of expenses, the cost has been recovered on the first day of screening.
This is already a huge success for the first film shot by a film and television newcomer, ranking first in the film category of the same period.
On the second day and the third day, the box office was still hot, just like Guo Dalu said, the box office of a movie is good or bad, on the one hand, it is its own quality, and on the other hand, it is the foil of the same movie.
The three domestic films released at the same time as "City Hunter", except for a love movie with the protagonist of the current little fresh meat, the rest are also action movies.
After watching the four movies in the same period, the audience will naturally make a comparison, this comparison, the good and bad suddenly have a clear difference, at the beginning the gap between the box office of the four movies is not very big, but the gap is getting bigger and bigger, and after a week, the box office of the remaining three movies combined, is not as good as the data of the movie "City Hunter".
Through this movie, Chen Long became famous in one fell swoop, and even the three sisters Guo Yunxia left a very deep impression in the minds of many audiences.
In other words, the industry that is most likely to get rich overnight is the entertainment industry, before the movie "City Hunter" was drawn, a number of film and television personnel sent invitation cards to Chen Long, and Tianxi Film and Television directly increased Chen Long's salary to 3 million.
You must know that when filming the movie "City Hunter", Chen Long's salary was only 130,000, which was still fought for by Guo Dalu.
Now that he is famous, his salary has been improved immediately, and the entertainment industry is so realistic!
