Chapter 789: Kung Fu Movie (1/3)
Yang Ming also knew the difference between form and mind from Song Hongbao's mouth, and the two were not like the mind and mind that ordinary people in the outside world said, but there was still a big difference.
The most important thing is that the mother fist of Xinyi Quan is the 'cross handle', and the basic boxer of Xingyi Quan is the 'three-body style', which is fundamentally different from the inner and outer three of the "cross handle" of the Xinyi Liuhe Fist.
Xinyi Liuhe Quan was created by the national hero Yue Fei, and Xingyi Quan was formed in the late Qing Dynasty and became an independent boxing type.
Probably because Xingyi Quan appeared relatively late and is closely related to contemporary times, most people in the world generally know Xingyi, but do not know the mind, plus the connection between Xingyi Quan and Xinyi Fist, ordinary people can't distinguish it at all.
In fact, even if Song Hongbao himself is not only the twelve-shaped fist of Xinyi Liuhe Boxing, he also has a deep attainment in the twelve-shaped fist of Xingyi Boxing, and he is very familiar with the two major boxing methods.
Yang Ming was happy when he saw Hunting, chatted with Song Hongbao for a long time, and even called his senior brother Liang Zhidan over, and after going to the restaurant to eat together, they went to the martial arts hall to have a discussion.
The exchange between Liang Zhidan and Song Hongbao also opened Yang Ming's eyes and gained a lot, and the idea of making kung fu movies in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Even when he returned home, his mind still appeared from time to time when Liang Zhidan and Song Hongbao were discussing in the afternoon.
In the minds of every Chinese person, there is a martial arts dream.
Punish evil and promote good, do chivalrous righteousness, and be happy with revenge!
In particular, Yang Ming's soul comes from the world where martial arts novels and kung fu movies were popular in the previous life, and the martial arts color in this life is indeed a little lighter.
Yang Ming has been thinking about a problem, he has countless classic movie resources in his previous life, which can ensure that in the next fifteen years, he does not have to worry about the box office of the movie.
Even after fifteen years, when Oriental DreamWorks rises to a certain height, it will inevitably have a huge screenwriting system, and there will definitely be no shortage of good scripts.
But I don't know why, Yang Ming always feels that something is missing.
It seems a little unwilling.
Was 2012 a success?
From the perspective of box office alone, Yang Ming is very successful.
But for some reason, he always felt that it wasn't what he wanted.
Even if it is an epic special effects picture shown in this movie, he still feels a little regretful.
The future trend of cinema, special effects are all the rage, that's for sure, and in previous lives, it was also proven.
Especially the spectacular pictures in those science fiction movies have become the basic guarantee of box office revenue.
In the previous life, the movies released every year later, the pictures of special effects in them became more and more huge and spectacular, so that in the back, the competition of special effects was already a basic element between blockbusters.
Domestic films are even more named "XXX Hollywood blockbuster special effects production group" at every turn, and the box office is crazy in the domestic film market, which shows that their plan has succeeded, but the so-called special effects blockbusters shot by domestic film companies that cost more than 100 million yuan and use countless financial resources to get the North American and European film markets have not even made a wave.
Speaking of which, it's just fooling the Chinese people.
It is also impossible to deny the investment of domestic films in film special effects, and there are indeed several special effects movies with large investment that have achieved relatively good box office results.
But when you really want to look at the domestic film rankings in previous years, then you will find that the role of special effects in the film production of domestic films that occupy the top spot is not so obvious.
The most notable example is "People Are Embarrassed to Travel", the box office champion in 2012, with 12. The box office of 6.7 billion surpassed the box office of "Titanic" of more than 900 million, becoming the first box office of the year.
Does the movie have special effects?
No.
However, Yang Ming also admitted that the reason why this movie was able to achieve such amazing box office results was indeed due to too many accidental factors.
But I have to say that Xu Zheng's comedy elements are a very important reason for this.
The domestic film market in 2012, which was also in the previous life, was blown into the sky by countless media, and the special effects blockbuster "Painted Skin 2", which spent hundreds of millions of dollars to shoot, was only the fourth box office of the year, and on "Painted Skin 2", the third ranked movie was "Zodiac".
A so-called magic blockbuster with extremely luxurious special effects and gorgeous scenes, he didn't even do "Zodiac" that was over 50 years old and was known as the old, weak, sick and disabled Brother Long.
At the time, this really surprised many people.
When everyone thought that Brother Long was old and no longer good, his kung fu movies gave many people a resounding slap in the face.
Zodiac, 8. 8.1 billion box office;
Painted Skin 2, 7. 0.3 billion box office;
The difference between the two was nearly 200 million in the box office of the movie, which really surprised everyone at the time.
Moreover, Brother Long's "Heavenly General Lion" filmed in 2015 still got 7. 4.3 billion box office number jΓΉ!
This makes people have to admit Brother Long's evergreen charm in the film industry.
If you look at it from another angle, remove the charm of Brother Long's own kung fu superstar for many years, then why do these two kung fu movies shot in his more than half a hundred years still attract countless domestic audiences to buy tickets and watch them?
Why do audiences still buy it so much?
One thing is for sure, that is, Brother Long's skills are definitely not as vigorous as when he was younger, and the movie scenes shot by Brother Long now are definitely more gorgeous than before!
In his previous life, Yang Ming had been thinking about this issue, and even, around him, many friends in the film industry were also discussing this reason.
He had heard countless answers, all sorts of answers, but none of them were as good as he wanted.
But in this life, with such a fantastic life experience, he also has a vague answer in his heart.
In the previous life, Brother Long's kung fu movies made in the year of confusion are still enduring, and have been recognized by countless fans and audiences, and the focus is on the first two words: 'Kung Fu'!
Kung fu!
Kung Fu Movie!
A film genre that has been regarded as an ordinary and ordinary film by countless filmmakers in the previous life, and used by countless directors as a means of filming to attract audiences and fans.
It seems that everyone has long forgotten the sensation caused by Bruce Lee's kung fu movie when it landed in North America.
I have long forgotten that whenever foreigners mention China, they will give a thumbs up and say: Chinese kung fu!
China, Huaxia, martial arts, kung fu, when these are connected in series, the movie table has influenced the whole world in an era, even after more than ten years, the first impression of many foreigners on China is Chinese kung fu!
In the previous life, after kung fu movies reached 2000, they seemed to have long been considered by everyone to be no longer brilliant.
Is that really the case?
Yang Ming once carefully studied the box office rankings of domestic films in previous years, and he found that maybe the box office champion every year is not a kung fu movie, but in the top five, there will inevitably be a kung fu movie.
Especially the kung fu superstars who left a deep impression on a generation back then, whenever there are movies starring them, the box office is very good.
