Chapter 280: Technical Security is Shared
The current Hong Kong actresses, if you talk about the degree of popularity, it is definitely the world of Zhong Huihong, Wang Guxian and others, Zhang Meng can only be regarded as a little beauty who has just emerged, with Zhang Manyu and Zhang Manyu in "Hardcover Chasing Girls", but there is no memorable role.
So Liu Zhenwei is now saying that it is not to cut Wang Guxian's role, and to find a way to increase Zhang Meng's role, it is a joke.
Chen Jialuo tried his best to get Wang Guxian to participate in "God of Gamblers", in order to create a topic, because Wang Guxian and Zhou Yunfa have collaborated on three movies this year, which can be regarded as inseparable.
And from the perspective of attracting the media and the audience, it is definitely for Wang Guxian to take the lead, and Zhang Meng is not qualified enough at present.
Looking at things from Liu Zhenwei's point of view, I feel that whatever movie I make is an actor, but in fact, it can be regarded as a mutual achievement. After all, it is now Chen Jialuo who needs such a team to create a topic, and then come up with "God of Gamblers".
As for Liu Zhenwei's opinion that Yongsheng Film Company, in fact, although "God of Gamblers" can be regarded as a cooperation with Yongsheng Film Company, in fact, Chen Jialuo filmed "Heavenly Love" for Liu Dehua, and "God of Gamblers" is for Liu Dehua to cooperate with the two most popular male and female protagonists in the film industry today, so Yongsheng Film Company did not come forward to object.
Of course, Liu Dehua himself has signed several film contracts with the Red Flower Club, even if he opposes it, there is nothing to say.
As for the opposite side of the funds, "God of Gamblers" and Yongsheng Film Company are actually a seven-three situation, the reason why Yongsheng Film Company was pulled in, on the one hand, is for the convenience of filming, and on the other hand, Chen Jialuo wants to use the relationship with his family to find a way to put the movie in a real casino for framing and shooting......
Chen Jialuo said: "Try to polish Liu Dehua's acting skills and shoot more of his scenes in the early stage, because after "The Birth of a Word" is officially completed, "Heavenly Love" will be filmed immediately. ”
Liu Zhenwei nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Although Chan Ka-lok has always been famous for making movies with water-milled tofu, for most directors in Hong Kong, it is not too easy to make fast scenes, and "God of Gamblers" is indeed not difficult.
"By the way, I, Zhang Shuping, said that you plan to make a literary film?" Liu Zhenwei thought about it and asked.
In Liu Zhenwei's eyes, Chen Jialuo is the king of commercial films, since entering Xu Xian Film Studio, every movie has been a very blockbuster, and "Prison Storm" is the biggest winner of the Academy Awards, and it can be regarded as the biggest winner of word-of-mouth and box office!
Such a king of commercial films, inexplicably wants to devote himself to literary films? If this news spreads, I am afraid that many people will be shocked.
The corners of Chen Jialuo's mouth twitched slightly, and he said: "It's not a literary film, if you have any good books, you can bring them to me, maybe after "God of Gamblers" is over, you can set up a project." ”
In fact, when it comes to Liu Zhenwei's screenwriting ability, it has always seemed like a mystery. Originally, Liu Zhenwei should be regarded as a unique screenwriter, but because of Wang Jiawei's existence, many people questioned Liu Zhenwei's screenwriting ability.
For example, in the famous "Journey to the West", Wang Jiawei once said in an interview: One of the stories in "Journey to the West" is the first draft of "East Evil and West Poison", and Chun Thirty Niang and Supreme Treasure are stories developed at that time, but they were not used later, so they were filmed for him.
Another example is the most classic line: "There was once a sincere love in front of me, I didn't cherish it, and I regretted it when I lost it, and there is nothing more painful in the world than this." If Heaven could give me another chance, I would say to the girl, 'I love you!' If I had to add a term to this love, I would like it to be 10,000 years. ”
This sentence is known by many people as an imitation or ridicule of a line in Wang Jiawei's "Chongqing Forest".
If this form is not strange in Hong Kong films, then Liu Zhenwei's other classic - "East Becomes West", is very revealing.
When Wang Jiawei was preparing to film "East Evil and West Poison" in 1993, investors were afraid that they would not be able to recover the cost, so they asked Wang Jiawei to make a funny version of the movie with the same cast of actors, so there was "East Becomes West". The film was almost at the end of the year when it was filmed, so it was planned to be produced in the form of a funny Chinese New Year film, and the director in charge of the film was Liu Zhenwei, and the screenwriter's name was also Liu Zhenwei.
But in fact, when mentioning the two movies "East Evil and West Poison" and "East Becomes West", the king of sunglasses said this: At that time (when the new company was established), it was the release of "The Undefeated Comeback of the East", and I said that it would be better to make a martial arts film. Liu Zhenwei and I both liked "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" the most, when we were together all day, discussing who played the East Evil and the West Poison, and the more we talked, the more excited we became. However, it was also found that this was quite costly. And usually after filming, Wang Jing will use it to spoof, so it's better for us to do it ourselves, I'll shoot seriously, and Liu Zhenwei will shoot funny.
This is how "East Evil and West Poison" and "East Becomes West" began, and when "East Evil and West Poison" started, I found that if I filmed seriously, I would definitely not be able to catch up with the schedule. And comedy must be the most advantageous for the New Year, so I will finish "East Becomes West" first, and I will write him to shoot.
"East Becomes West" was written by me, and it was filmed in a month, and the credit at that time was not very important, Liu Zhenwei was also called Ji'an, and Ji'an could be shared.
Wang Jiawei's words almost made Liu Zhenwei come to a big doxxing, and everyone exaggerated the work of saving the scene, but in the end it was actually written by Wang Jiawei.
And Ji'an, the screenwriter, everyone knew that it was Liu Zhenwei before, but in fact, it was shared with Wang Jiawei. Thinking about the previous movies such as Liu Zhenwei's "Ghost Mission", which were all written by Wang Jiawei, it is not difficult to find that in fact, Wang Jiawei's screenwriting ability is absolutely okay.
But this guy who has the ability to write a blockbuster script never uses a script when he makes movies himself, so that the actors and crew are chattering or confused, and at the end of the filming, he doesn't even know what it will look like when he cuts it out......
Hearing Chen Jialuo say that he should have a good book to take out, and he can set up a project to prepare for filming after "God of Gamblers" is over, Liu Zhenwei naturally nodded very happily and said: "No problem, I will definitely give you a few books after "God of Gamblers" is over." ”
On the other hand, Chen Jialuo is actually curious about which line Liu Zhenwei's screenwriting level is, and he will know it after reading the book.
As for the level of directing, it can be seen after the filming of "God of Gamblers" started.
