On March 7, the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, co-hosted by Fang Yihua and Zou Minhuai, and witnessed by many reporters, the second co-production of Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, Weihe, Zhengfei Xingwei, and four companies, "Police Story" ushered in a grand opening ceremony.

The main actors in the play, in addition to Chu Yuan and Tang Zhenye of the Shaw Brothers, supporting roles such as Dong Bi and Charlie Cao of Golden Harvest also joined later, while Zheng Fei Xingwei is mainly responsible for the behind-the-scenes work, Pan Hengsheng serves as the chief director of photography in the film, Da Fei is responsible for action design with the family class, and Liang Kun is still Wang Zheng's assistant, occasionally helping the family class design several sets of actions.

As soon as the film started, Zheng Fei Xingwei's people were busy enough. Often, as soon as "Police Story" finishes work, Wang Zheng takes Pan Hengsheng and a few people to the set of "Mr. Zombie" immediately.

Soon after the launch of "Police Story", "Mr. Zombie" also ushered in the boot, which is the opposite of the grand launch ceremony of the former, which is very low-key.

The roles in the film have been determined before the start of filming, in addition to the starring Lin Zhengying, Xu Guanying, and Li Saifeng, the pending Ye Zimei and Qian Xiaohao have also officially joined the crew.

Zeng Zhiwei finally invited Yuan Hao of Seven Little Blessings, "Ghost Queen" Wang Xiaofeng, to enrich the main creative team, and at the same time invited good friends Wu Ma, Chen You, Tian Qiwen, and made a cameo appearance in the play, along with the founding shareholders of Zheng Fei Xingwei, Zhou Xingchi and Liang Chaowei.

The filming of the two dramas started at the same time, and Wang Zheng and several people were affected, among which Pan Hengsheng, the director of photography who was also the director of photography for the two dramas, worked the hardest, and after filming "Police Story", he immediately rushed to "Mr. Zombie", and finally caused most of the scenes of "Mr. Zombie" to be at night.

"Police Story" has a lot of stunt shots, but the filming process of "Mr. Zombie" is extremely fast, and in less than a month, this zombie film is nearing the end.

can have such a smooth ride, all thanks to the joint efforts of the main creators in the play, director Zeng Zhiwei knows that Wang Zheng also has to take care of the filming of the four co-productions, in order not to lag behind, he took the initiative to work overtime to catch up with the shooting.

The protagonist Lin Zhengying is deeply grateful to Wang Zheng, so she naturally has no opinion on overtime.

Don't look at Xu Guanying as one of the four heroes of the Xu family, but she is extremely serious about her work and has no complaints about working overtime.

With the consent of the three main creative cores, Li Saifeng, Qian Xiaohao, Ye Zimei and others, who are still newcomers in the film industry, will naturally not have any dissatisfaction.

Therefore, with the joint efforts of everyone, the filming was so smooth, and the producer Wang Zheng did not spend too much attention, so that he could better guide the co-production, after all, this drama is the focus of Shaw Brothers.

There are many thrilling scenes of explosions and fights throughout the film, and in order to ensure safety, a lot of time had to be spent on test shooting during the filming, which eventually led to an unusually slow shooting process.

Among them, a very interesting episode occurred during the filming.

The time came to mid-March, and the New Year's stalls were coming to an end, and the top three "Lucky Stars", "Prison Storm", and "Plan A Sequel", the total box office was close to 30 million at the same time.

In order to quickly break through 30 million, the producers of the three dramas, Fang Debao, Shaw Brothers, and Golden Harvest, held an ice-breaking ceremony at different times and places, and this ice-breaking ceremony was created by Wang Zheng.

The ice-breaking ceremony ended, and the time came to late March, and the total box office of the three dramas finally broke through 30 million as they wished, but they persisted until the next painting, and the final box office did not increase much.

In the end, the total box office of "Prison Storm" of 31.8 million came after and ranked first.

"Plan A Sequel" has a total box office of 31.4 million, ranking second.

"Lucky Star Gaozhao" has a total box office of 30.8 million, falling to third.

"Wishing you prosperity" finally ranked fourth with a total box office of 18 million under the strong appeal of Xinyi City.

"Kapok Robe" has a box office of 15 million, ranking fifth, although it ranks low, the box office of more than 10 million is a steady earning.

The worst thing is "Goodbye Seven Days of Love" at the end, with a total box office of 7 million, which just makes back the cost for Shaw Brothers, if there is no strong theater support from Shaw Brothers, it is almost impossible to recover the cost.

During the Lunar New Year, the total box office of the six films reached 300 million Hong Kong dollars, the highest in the history of Hong Kong films.

Following "Crazy Stone" in 83, "Happy Family" in 84, and "Prison Storm" in 85, it is another Shaw Brothers New Year champion.

In addition to rewarding the main creative team, he also invited the happy cooperation of Golden Harvest to celebrate together.

For such a grand event, "Police Story" and "Mr. Zombie" also stopped work and gathered in the Peninsula Hotel.

During the banquet, Fang Yihua, who was the spokesman for Shao Daheng, pulled Wang Zheng aside and encouraged him bitterly: "Ah Zheng, we will continue to work hard in the coming year, if we can win the championship for four consecutive years, then our Shaw Brothers will be able to equal the record held by Wang Yu, if we work a little harder, it is not impossible to break the record for four consecutive years." ”

Wang Zheng smiled wryly, the filming of two dramas at the same time this time has already made him tired enough, and he doesn't dare to think about winning the championship for four consecutive years, he just wants to rest for a while now.

But such a discouraged remark can't be said in front of the leader, in the face of Fang Yihua's encouragement, Wang Zheng could only nod and promise: "Sixth aunt, rest assured, I will do my best to help the Shaw Brothers regain the lost glory." ”

"I have confidence in Ah Zheng, and while working hard, you should also pay more attention to rest!" Fang Yihua smiled and left after caring about Wang Zheng for a few words.

Wang Zheng touched the stubble on his chin, he was too busy during this time, he lived on the set most of the time, rarely went back to Dunhoulou, and even forgot to shave his beard.

"Brother Zheng!"

Just when Wang Zheng touched his chin and was a little stunned, a familiar call came from behind him, and when he turned his head, it was Wang Guxian, who he hadn't seen for a month.

Seeing Wang Guxian, who was dressed as the girl next door as usual, Wang Zheng had a smile on his face and said, "Xiaoxian, I haven't seen you for a long time! When did you go back to Xiangjiang, why haven't you been seen?"

Wang Guxian pouted and said, "I've been back for more than half a month, and I can't find someone to say, and someone doesn't know to come to see me." ”

Wang Zheng smiled bitterly: "I think, someone must be very busy!"

Wang Guxian nodded, and said a little distressed: "Well, Brother Zheng is right, later I learned that someone started two dramas at the same time, and he was busy during the day and then at night, not to mention coming to see me, he didn't even have time to rest! ”

Wang Zheng nodded, no wonder I only saw Wang Guxian now, it turned out that she had joined Xu Laowei's film studio, and this cooperation should be the opportunity for her to take over the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

Just as Wang Zheng was about to ask Xu Laowei what his temper was, Guan Zhilin, who was also at the banquet, came over and asked the two of them in an unkind tone: "Sister Xiaoxian, which person makes you care so much?"
