As soon as he sat down, Cheng Long took the lead in speaking: "Deshuang, congratulations, the death game is a big hit at the box office!" ”

"Brother Long, I have to thank you for your recommendation, if it weren't for them to join, it is estimated that this movie would not have such good results. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

This time, the martial arts instructor of "Game of Death", according to Lu Deshuang's idea, originally wanted Zhang Jin to be on it, but it didn't come to pass, although Zhang Jin had been an action director before, he couldn't control such a large-scale action movie at all, so he could only change people.

For the first time, Lu Deshuang thought of the Xiangjiang side, who made this period, the domestic action director, really can't take it.

As we all know, among the many martial arts groups in the history of Xiangjiang films, Cheng Long's Cheng family class; Hong Jingbao's Hong family class; Yuan Baye's Yuan family class, Liu Jialiang's Liu family class is undoubtedly the best, and after entering the new century, among the four major classes, the Liu family class is stubborn, the Hong family class has limited innovation, and they are all lonely and disbanded, only the Cheng family class and the Yuan family class survive in the dangerous living space, and fight to Hollywood.

Among them, Cheng Jiaban can be called the "Flying Tigers" in the Xiangjiang martial arts group, brave and resolute, and omnipotent.

You must know that Xiangjiang's master of action direction is like Lin, and winning the best action direction at the Hong Kong Film Awards is like winning the table tennis championship in Huaxia, which is much more difficult than winning the world championship.

As the action team with the most awards (9 times) at the Xiangjiang Academy Awards, it is also the only team that can win action design for three consecutive years (if you add Tang Jili's "Police Story 4", Cheng Jiaban will be 2 times triple champions.) Cheng Jiaban can be said to be proud and beautiful in Xiangjiang.

However, behind the scenery, there are countless hardships, and it can be said that almost all of the achievements of the Cheng family's class were brought back with their lives.

However, Lu Deshuang did not choose the Cheng family class, but the Yuan family class.

First of all, Yuan Jiaban's action style is indeed more suitable for "Game of Death", and secondly, with the global sensation of the "Matrix" series, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and "Kill Bill" series, Yuan Jiaban has also reached the peak of glory and has become a sought-after brand in the world action movies.

It was very smooth to contact Yuan Jiaban, and Yuan Baye personally came forward to receive Lu Deshuang.

In the face of Lu Deshuang's invitation, he also readily agreed, not only did he not care about the commission, but even promised that he would personally lead the team to direct "Game of Death", but Yuan Baye was so enthusiastic, and it was not unconditional, he wanted his apprentice Zheng Zidan to star in the movie "Game of Death".

This gave Lu Deshuang a headache, after all, the crew had almost prepared, and all the actors for the important roles had been found, all of them were Hollywood big-name action superstars, and they were obviously not suitable for changing roles, and Yuan Baye personally spoke, and Lu Deshuang couldn't take some tricks out of the perfunctory.

In the end, he was selected and selected, and squeezed out a supporting role, but there were almost no lines, and he was killed not long after he appeared, which naturally caused Yuan Baye's dissatisfaction, although his apprentice Zheng Zidan was not popular at this time, but he didn't want the protagonist, he just wanted a weighty supporting role, but he couldn't fool himself with such a role.

As a result, the result was not pleasant, although there was no falling out, but the cooperation was not possible.

In the end, Lu Deshuang could only find Cheng Long, hoping that he would recommend a few action directors in Cheng's class who were more suitable for "Game of Death" to come over and help, and Cheng Long didn't say anything, and directly introduced three people to Lu Deshuang, namely Yi Tianxiong, Zheng Jizhong and Li Zhongzhi.

To be honest, compared with Lu Huiguan, Taibao, Mars and other well-known members of the Cheng family class, Lu Deshuang still knows, but the names of these three people are really unfamiliar to Lu Deshuang, but when Lu Deshuang read the resumes of the three people, he felt that Cheng Long was righteous enough.

For example, this Yi Tian Xiong, nicknamed "Plague".

Yi Tianxiong joined the Cheng family class in 85, and because of his high and bold art, he was also one of Cheng Long's usual stand-ins.

And the people of the Cheng family class are famous for fighting for their lives, but among the many members, Yi Tianxiong is the most fatal, and he pats his chest on some extremely dangerous actions. Therefore, his peers decided that he had a plague and did not want to die, hence the nickname.

When Cheng's class was disbanded, Cheng Long came forward to keep him, but as soon as the brothers left together, he still chose to leave.

He is extraordinary in martial arts, and after leaving Cheng Long, he still serves as his martial artist, stand-in, and martial finger.

and then successively participated in Tsui Hark's "Once Upon a Time" series, in which he also served as a stand-in for Jet Li and Zheng Zheshi (Zheng Zheshi has a fat body and no one can replace him, and Yi Tianxiong is stuffed with cotton). As for the movies he personally participated in, the more familiar role is the pirate king Zhang Baozai in "Once Upon a Time: Dragon City Annihilation".

In recent years, many martial artists in Xiangjiang have poured into Hollywood to make films with the tide, Yi Tianxiong is one of them, he participated in the production of "Spider-Man", "Daredevil", and "Thunderbolt Baby".

And the remaining two people, although Lu Deshuang is not very familiar, but not to be underestimated, among which Li Zhizhong joined Cheng Long's family class in the 80s and has been with Cheng Long for more than 20 years.

From the beginning of the martial arts to the later deputy martial arts instructor, to the martial arts instructor in recent years, Li Zhongzhi can be said to be rising step by step, and at the same time praised by Cheng Long, Cheng Long not only praised Li Zhongzhi by name in the interview, but also highlighted his status in the movie signature, such as "New Police Story" and "Baby Plan" are the signatures of "Li Zhongzhi, Family Class".

Cheng Long is famous for his movies that emphasize quality and have few scenes, so in addition to helping Cheng Long's company, Li Zhongzhi also works outside, leading a group of members of the Cheng family class who were disbanded that year to create the world everywhere, and has participated in the martial arts design of many classic Hong Kong action movies, and his martial arts style is tough and concise, and explosive.

For example, "Black Fist" starring Wu Jing, "Three Forks" starring Guo Tianwang, Wu Yanzu, and Zheng Yijian are all actions designed by him, and he has also collaborated with Xiangjiang genius director Cheng Musheng in many popular action films, such as "New Police Story", "Baby Plan", and "The True Colors of Men" are all his representative works. In 2008, he cooperated with Wu Jing to shoot his directorial debut "Wolf Teeth".

Li Zhongzhi can be said to be the popular action director in Xiangjiang and even the entire Chinese film industry after Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, Liu Jialiang, Chen Xiaodong, Yuan Heping and others, especially in the years before Lu De's death, there were many excellent works.

On April 3, 2016, Li Zhongzhi won the Best Action Design Award at the 35th Xiangjiang Film Awards for "Slaying the Wolf 2", and on September 7 of the same year, he won the Best Action Film Director Award at the 20th Huading Awards for the movie "Wolf Warrior".

Zheng Jizhong joined Cheng Jiaban in the 90s, and made great contributions to Cheng Long's impact on Hollywood, including the "Rush Hour" series, and has also collaborated with many Hollywood directors, such as Billy Burke's "Twilight"; Jeff Chase's "Wild Hour", "Time to Chase the Fight"; Catherine Hardwick's "Little Red Riding Hood" and so on, are the more outstanding achievements among the latter batch of Cheng Jiaban members.

In the first World Film Stunt Awards, he was shortlisted for the "Best Fight" and "Best Aerial Stunt" awards.

It's a pity that this pioneering work directed by Zheng Jizhong is a failure, to quote the words of "The Hollywood Reporter", the cast of this movie is very expected, but the script is terrible.
