Chapter 80: True Heroes

In my mind, there was a dream

To make you forget all the pain with your singing,

Brilliant starry sky, who is the real hero,

Ordinary people move me the most,

No more hatred, no more pain,

I hope there are traces of love everywhere in the world,

With our songs, in exchange for your sincere smile,

Wishing you a life that will be different from now on,

Grasp every minute of life,

Go all out to the dream in our hearts,

If you don't experience wind and rain, how can you see a rainbow,

No one succeeds casually.

In the screening hall of Jiuzhou Company, in the dark, the list of film crews on the right side of the screen is slowly rising, and on the left, there are the filming highlights of "King Haibian", there are all kinds of jokes made by NG, there are actors who are injured because of action scenes, there are laughter, and there are tears.

Xu Jing, Lin Jianguo, and Zhao Xiaojun watched the test screening of "King Haibian" on the screen, quietly listened to the singing voice coming out of the speaker, and did not speak for a long time.

"Xiao Jing, this song is so well written, even at my age, I was moved when I listened to it." When the last note fell, Lin Jianguo said with emotion.

Zhao Xiaojun on the side still didn't speak, but Xu Jing vaguely saw a soft light flashing in his eyes.

This song is naturally "True Hero". In the original time and space, like "I Am a Little Bird", it was written by Li Zongsheng and sung by Cheng Long, Zhou Huajian, Huang Yaoming and himself, but at this time, it was put on the screen like "Song of a Thousand Thousand Que" and became the theme song of "King Haibian".

In fact, the meaning expressed in "True Hero" is far from the core theme revealed in the original "King of Haibian", and it is not appropriate, but it is quite similar to the spirit embodied by the protagonist Dumb in Xu Jing's version of "King Haibian".

Although Xu Jing's version of "King Haibian" strengthens the elements of 'superheroes', the elements of 'anti-superheroes' are also deeply portrayed in Zhou's nonsensical performance style.

In the film, Dumb is ordinary and ordinary, but he never forgets his original intention, insists on his 'superhero dream', and even after experiencing setbacks, being beaten, and being hit by a car, he still firmly believes in the belief of 'King Haibian'. This is just a little person with childish dreams and unrealistic, but under his firm beliefs, he shines like Lei Feng.

Never give up, don't be defeated by difficulties, stick to your dreams, work hard for your dreams, and realize the value of your life, which is also the central idea expressed in the song "True Hero".

In addition, the film is no longer a farcical movie like the original, but a "Kung Fu" version of "Haibian King", which is an anti-superhero movie dressed as a superhero movie.

Its core theme is 'anti-superheroes', in which through the helplessness of 'King Haibian' who was robbed many times, helping people but not getting help from passers-by, and 'Big Daddy' being framed but no one dared to offend the greedy ~ corrupt high-ranking officials to prove his innocence, etc., mocking some indifferent phenomena in reality, expressing that "what we need is not superheroes, but ordinary people around us who can stretch out a warm hand when others need it." This is the core theme.

There are traces of love everywhere in the world, and everyone in the world is a true hero.

"Uncle, how is the propaganda plan now?" Looking at the "King of Haibian", which had ended, Xu Jing thought for a while and asked.

"The trailer has been negotiated with TVB, and it will be broadcast in two days." Lin Jianguo said: "But Princess Jin seems to have prepared a way to promote the trailer, hehe." ”

"Leave them alone, it's not like the trailer of any movie works wonders." Xu Jing said again: "By the way, what about the publicity method of cooperation with Paul School? ”

"Those promotional costumes are already being made, and there is no problem with the school and the major media." Lin Jianguo counted his thumbs and said with a smile: "This propaganda idea you think of is really amazing!" Hehe. ”

"Lao Zhao, when those student publicity activities start, I will also arrange for someone to shoot some tidbits, and I will also cut them into the end credits of the film when the time comes." Xu Jing turned to Zhao Xiaojun again.

"Okay, I'll arrange it later." Zhao Xiaojun replied.

"Hmm." Xu Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's go, let's go and see how the 'actors' of the new movie are trained." ”

Speaking of which, these days, because he is busy with the post-production of "King Haibian" and the storyboard drawing of "Borderless City", Xu Jing has almost not paid attention to the 'extras' who have been trained for several days, and Wu Zheng is responsible for the roles from screening to final selection, and I don't know if the filming requirements of the film can be met now.

"You wretch! Splash! Xu Jing and Zhao Xiaojun came to the outside of the martial arts room, and before they entered, they heard a suppressed roar from inside, followed by a burst of laughter.

When the two of them entered, they saw a short and thin man with almost wrinkled facial features, wielding a big stick in both hands, gritting his teeth and smashing a sandbag, and many people laughed and watched on the side.

When the short and thin man saw the two of them coming in, he stopped what he was doing, but his expression was still solemn, and he didn't look happy with anyone. Without Wu Zheng's explanation, Xu Jing knew the role this person was going to play, and this bitter and hateful face could only be the 'dwarf' in "Borderless City".

The "Short Man" does not have many scenes, but it is an extremely important part of the story of the "Young Three Heroes", and he is a member of the "Young Three Heroes" who contributed to the demise of the "Young Three Heroes". In the story, because the protagonist's brother Dumb had an affair with his wife, he hated the 'Young Three Heroes', and after burying his wife alive, he identified Ah Mao among the Three Heroes to the police~cha, causing him to die tragically on the way to wash his hands in the golden basin.

"How did you find this man? is acting like a real person, I'm afraid I won't lose to the actor. Seeing Wu Zheng coming, Zhao Xiaojun asked.

"Frightened, this person Axiong found, surnamed Wu, others call him 'Wu Dalang', and he sells steamed buns in the walled city." Wu Zheng explained with a smile: "He became addicted to gambling and owed a gambling debt, and his wife ran away with someone because of this, and he came to play this role because he had no money to pay off his debts." ”

Yes, this 'Wu Dalang' to play the role of 'Shorty' is really a perfect match, no wonder he played so deeply with a bitter and hateful face, it turned out to be a performance in his true colors.

After testing the other actors again, it is basically no problem, especially the three roles of "Little Overlord", "Benny", and the juvenile version of "Little Douzi" of "Little Overlord", which Xu Jing was most worried about, and the actors who were finally determined were Ah Xiong, Ah Hao's two brothers and Ah Xiong's little Ajie.

Perhaps because they were nurtured by their fathers since childhood, the two brothers Ah Xiong and Ah Hao are full of arrogance and ruthlessness, and it doesn't take much effort to control the two roles of 'Little Overlord' and 'Little Bean', and even Applejack can handle the role of 'Benny' after being trained by Wu Zheng because he has studied outside.

"Dahai, how do you grasp the role of 'Ade'?" Finally, seeing Sun Dahai holding a small notebook and figuring it out, Xu Jing called him over again and asked.
