The term martial arts instructor was coined by HK Films.

To be precise, it was created by director Zhang Quda and his Zhang Jiaban.

In the first decade of the last century, when HK movies were at their most glorious, many awesome martial arts instructors emerged, such as Yuan Baye, Cheng Xiaodong, Chengjia class, Hong family class, etc...

With the change of the times, or with the change of the audience's aesthetics, special effects have gradually replaced the group of martial arts instructors, of course, it may also be because action movies have not been very popular in recent years, so most of the martial arts instructors who have created a bunch of god-like actions have retired from the rivers and lakes.

However, Korean movies have risen a lot of martial arts instructors, and their action design is biased towards beautiful and powerful fights, the movements are very simple, and they pay attention to killing with one hit.

"Lone Agent" and "The Chaser" are all in this vein style.

There are several martial arts instructors who are really active in the film industry in today's Chinese films, except for the Universe Dan, that is, the family class and the Hong family class, by the way, Li Zhongzhi is from the family class!

To be honest, the martial arts instructor Xu Hui wanted to find at the beginning was Yuan Baye, after all, the original time and space was the martial arts instructor of the "Huang Feihong" series played by this great god.

The eighth master did creatively bring a new martial arts coaching style to HK movies at that time.

Including the weapon used by Huang Feihong, that is, the umbrella, which was also deliberately arranged by the eighth master to Li Lianjie.

The classic was born!

Now when many people think of the image of Huang Feihong, they will think of the black umbrella in his hand...

Of course, Li Zhongzhi is a very good martial arts instructor, he is Wu Jing's royal martial arts instructor, and he has cooperated with a lot of movies, and the directors of "Wolf Teeth" are these two people.

The martial arts instructor of "Embroidered Spring Knife" is also him.

However, his style may not be suitable for "Once Upon a Time", it may be appropriate for you to ask him to design fiery and realistic movements, but the action design of "Once Upon a Time" is biased towards elegant movements, although it is not as flying around as pure martial arts, but it cannot be too realistic.

For an action movie, martial arts instruction can be said to be the most central part.

Action movies pay attention to action, and the most textured thing is action.

If you don't play well, you will lose a lot of points!

Can you imagine, if all the action scenes of "Ip Man" are subtracted, can the movie still be watched?

Fortunately, Li Zhongzhi is not the kind of particularly big-name martial arts instructor, and he knows how to communicate with the director.

The style Hui wanted included certain movement designs, such as Wong Fei Hung's signature move 'White Crane Wings', which he had written into the storyboard with stick figures.

The effect is not bad, at least the design of this scene just now is quite in line with the martial arts style that Xu Hui wants to present for the whole movie!

……

Many big-name martial arts instructors have their own beliefs and persistence, such as Liu Jialiang, he has always adhered to the style of hard bridges and hard horses, and pays attention to real fights.

But presented in the movie screen, these actions will not be too exciting, after all, the real fight requires restraint, in case something happens!

So the action he designed is not good enough in the eyes of the audience, and the thrill is not exciting enough.

But this is his insistence!

The original time and space Xu Laowei was looking for a martial arts instructor for the "Huang Feihong" series at the beginning was Mr. Liu Jialiang, the two communicated very unpleasantly, Xu Laowei's ideas were wild, and Liu Jialiang thought that he didn't understand martial arts at all, and left the "Huang Feihong" crew directly with his own team, and then Yuan Baye entered.

Just because he didn't agree with the director's concept, he quit the crew directly!

This seems a little strange to many of our current juniors, but it was normal in the eyes of the HK martial arts instructors at that time - I am a martial arts director, and the action design is left to me, so you can shoot your literary drama well.

Most of the martial arts instructors from the martial arts have this problem, they think that the action scenes of a movie should be completed by the martial arts instructors, I don't care if you are the director or not, stay there!

When Zhou Xingchi was filming "Kung Fu", the martial arts instructor he was looking for at first was Hong Jinbao and his Hong family class, and then, the two broke out into a fierce conflict, and Hong Jinbao left the "Kung Fu" crew in a rage.

The so-called fierce contradictions, we start with Hong Jinbao's statement to the media: 'Zhou Xingchi doesn't treat others as people at all, and he doesn't respect people at all!'

It can be seen in one sentence that the reason why Hong Jinbao withdrew must be because Mr. Zhou interfered with the work of Wu Xing.

This thing is a big no-no for big-name martial arts instructors!

When many martial arts instructors shoot action scenes, they ask to clear the scene in order to hide their secrets, especially in the early years of the century!

Of course, the crew of "Once Upon a Time" probably doesn't need these.

After all, Xu Hui is the absolute leader of the crew, Li Zhongzhi has not made much of a name for himself at present, and most of the martial arts instructors found by HK filmmakers for filming, he is not the choice of the first column, not even the choice of the second column!

Therefore, even after "Embroidered Spring Knife", he has never received any decent work.

In this "Once Upon a Time", he could feel Xu Hui's ambition to recreate HK movie action movies, and Li Zhongzhi knew that this was his perfect opportunity!

You have to get it.

He looked at the sketches drawn by Xu Hui, and many action scenes seemed incredible to him!

It's hard to bring these scenes to life, but once this movie is successful, then he Li Zhongzhi will inevitably become another mountain of action design!

Therefore, when designing the movements, Li Zhongzhi was not limited to the set of juggling movements he learned in the family class, but also not only the beauty of modern striking.

He knew that what Xu Hui wanted to present was the action scenes unique to HK movies in the last century!

He has the unique habit of referring to Yuan Baye, Cheng Xiaodong and other predecessors, and many fight scenes appear natural and smooth under his design, and at the same time, there is no lack of violent beauty.

Of course, Li Zhongzhi is Li Zhongzhi after all, and he likes slightly violent and exciting scenes - he is the action director of "Slaying the Wolf 2".

As a result, a lot of Huang Feihong's one-hit killing actions have been added, such as the scene where Huang Feihong breaks into the Shahe Gang alone.

The original version of Yuan Baye probably wanted to show Huang Feihong's unparalleled side of benevolence and righteousness, so, under his design, Huang Feihong's movements are very good-looking, but unfortunately the lethality is too low, and many little minions neutralize him, and they can still stand up and continue to fight!

This Nima is a bit of.

Huang Feihong, his fists and feet are unparalleled, the master of national arts, if he doesn't kick someone to death with one foot, even if he is merciful at his feet, he should be seriously injured and fall to the ground anyway.

Therefore, Xu Hui and Li Zhongzhi summed it up, and this scene of a pair of people should not only reflect Huang Feihong's benevolence and righteousness, but also have his slightly ruthless place.

You won't kick someone to death, but you'll be seriously injured if you don't die!

Wang Qianyuan is unlucky, as the leader of the Shahe Gang, he has a lot of scenes where he is beaten, and in order to make the picture look better, this section must be a real fight.

There's got to be a close-up!
