261 [Bruce Lee's visit]

The super-level performance of "Meteor Butterfly Sword" has forced the schedule of "Drunken Fist" that has been set for a long time to be adjusted, and it has been unconditionally postponed for at least three months, because "Unparalleled in the World" will be released around the Chinese New Year, and these three main films of Wang's Film Company cannot be dismantled from each other.

Now Taiwan's prices have fallen by about 15 percent, the government's industrial revitalization plan has begun to be implemented, and the economy is showing signs of improvement. Coupled with the upcoming Chinese New Year, "Meteor Butterfly Sword" has been selling out, and the box office in Taiwan has reached NT$9.4 million in the first week.

Such a terrifying achievement has attracted exclamations from the Hong Kong and Taiwan film circles.

In Hong Kong, Great Wall, Phoenix, Zoomlion, Xinlian, Lianyi, and Dianmao, which were once dominant, either closed down or their business shrank, and finally the Shaw Brothers reorganized by Southland Film took the lead. Shaw Brothers loves to leave Zou Wenhuai, and the Golden Harvest Film Company established now faintly has the taste of the second position in the Hong Kong film industry.

In Taiwan, the Kuomintang party-run film institutions such as China Film and Taiwanese are still tenaciously alive, and they make a lot of films every year, but the significance of political propaganda outweighs their profits. Taiwan's League of Nations, Cathay Pacific, and the Federation, the three major film giants, due to various internal and external factors, are now left with only the Federation still struggling to support.

It can be seen from this that the competition in the Chinese-language film industry is fierce, and the anti-risk ability of these film companies is extremely low.

Taiwan's Federal Pictures is best known for its martial arts films, and the classic martial arts movies "Dragon Gate Inn" and "Chivalrous Girl" are produced by the company. Seeing that kung fu films have become popular in the past two years, Federal Pictures, which has been running a little difficult, is like grasping the last straw and following the trend to shoot kung fu films with a hot head, and the result is ......

The decline of federal films, other medium-sized film companies are also living like a year, and the Wang Film Company, which has sold many movies in a row, has rightfully become the number one film company in Taiwan's film industry after "Meteor Butterfly Sword" (not counting party-run film organizations).

"Next Magazine" wrote in the latest issue of the entertainment section: "Wang's film company's accurate grasp of the film market, and the innovation of film content and themes, in today's downturn in the film industry, step by step growth, finally become the leader of the Taiwan film market." And Wang Zijun, a music boy at the beginning, has also become a veritable Taiwanese movie tycoon......

From the collapse of the League of Nations and Cathay Pacific, we should be alert that Hollywood is now the world's largest film exporter and has formed a complete film industry system. On the surface, Chinese-language films seem to be becoming more and more prosperous, but most film institutions have the blindness and limitations of investment, which is very dangerous......"

"Next Magazine" has analyzed in detail the various shortcomings of today's Chinese film industry, which many discerning filmmakers can see clearly, but unfortunately no one has the ability to change it.

Whether it is Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest or Wang's, these large companies are very cautious in making films, and the main problem lies in those small and medium-sized companies. After a theme became popular, countless small and medium-sized companies immediately took the subject to rot in the shortest possible time, like a shark smelling blood.

The continuous development of Chinese-language films is completely nonsense for these followers, because most of their investors are here to make money in the film market. How much do you get, the fast ones earn more, the slow ones earn less, and the ones who lose their money think they are unlucky.

During this time, in addition to participating in the rehearsal and recording of the China Television Spring Festival Gala, Wang Zijun has been writing a list of rules and regulations and film classification systems for the Taiwanese film industry, preparing to discuss them with his peers after the Chinese New Year.

In addition, it is to take the original cast of "Unparalleled in the World" to the three major TV stations to promote it. …,

Under the overtime work day and night, the later stage of "Unparalleled in the World" was completed in only half a month, and at this time it was already the Spring Festival, and most of the company's factories had already been on holiday.

Seeing that all kinds of work came to an end, Wang Zijun took Lin Qingxia back to his hometown, ready to have a leisurely Spring Festival, but he didn't expect Bruce Lee to find it.

"Who are you looking for?" After Wang Zijun's father opened the door, he saw a young man standing at the door, who was solid and walking in a hurry, and asked vigilantly.

Bruce Lee was surprised, but he didn't expect Wang Xianzhi to not know him, he was recuperating in Hawaii, and he would be recognized by many foreigners when he went out.

"May I ask if this is Wang Zijun's home?" Bruce Lee asked.

Wang Xianzhi didn't look like a villain when he saw Bruce Lee, nodded and said, "Come in, he's watching TV inside." ”

"You are Uncle Wang, Happy New Year, Uncle, I'm Bruce Lee." Bruce Lee smiled and followed Wang Xianzhi into the house.

"Bruce Lee, he's Bruce Lee"

"Bruce Lee has come to Grandpa Wang's house."

"Dad, I saw Bruce Lee just now, it's a real person."

“……”

Before Bruce Lee stepped into the door, many adults and children shouted on the street, and immediately many people ran towards Wang's house.

Wang Xianzhi said to himself: "Bruce Lee, why is this name so familiar? ”

Wang Zijun heard the shouts outside, picked up his eldest nephew and stood up to greet him, and said with a smile: "What a rare guest, Brother Long, why don't you say a word from the United States?" ”

Bruce Lee said: "I called you, but no one answered at home, so I found here." ”

Wang Zirong also came over, criticized Wang Zijun while making tea, and said: "Zijun, you don't pour a glass of water when you come to the door, you are the boss and you have not made any progress." ”

"What the eldest brother said is," Wang Zijun introduced with a smile: "Brother Long, this is my eldest brother Wang Zirong." ”

"Hello Mr. Wang." Bruce Lee greeted.

"Don't stand, please sit," Wang Zirong put the tea on the coffee table and said, "My group of boys like to watch Mr. Li's movies, and now many of them go to learn kung fu." ”

Bruce Lee glanced at the calluses on Wang Zirong's hands, remembered some rumors, and knew it.

Lin Qingxia and Wu Xiaozhen also came out, and Lin Qingxia said in surprise, "Brother Long is here, Happy New Year, Wishing you prosperity." ”

"Wishing you prosperity" Bruce Lee hugged his fist.

Wu Xiaozhen nodded at Bruce Lee with a smile and said, "Hello Mr. Li, I am your fan and I like your Jeet Kune Do very much." ”

Wang Zijun introduced: "This is my sister-in-law Wu Xiaozhen. ”

"Hello Miss Wu." When Bruce Lee and Wu Xiaozhen shook hands, they saw the scar on the side of their face, and thought to themselves, Wang Zijun's family is not simple.

As a few people were saying this, many neighbors who had heard the news had already crowded in, asking for autographs, and even more so, bringing cameras from nowhere to ask for a group photo.

After more than half an hour, these people left unsatisfied.

Wang Zijun asked, "How is Brother Long's health?" ”

Bruce Lee said: "I feel almost, I haven't had a headache for a month." ”

"That's good." Wang Zijun said happily for him.

Bruce Lee said: "This time, in addition to going back to Hong Kong for the New Year, the main reason is to discuss something with you." ”

Wang Zijun said: "You say." ”

"Has Zijun ever thought about entering Hollywood?" Bruce Lee asked.

Wang Zijun asked: "Brother Long wants to make a movie in the United States?" ”

"Not bad." Bruce Lee said, "I originally wanted to open a film company in Hong Kong, but when I came back, I found that kung fu movies didn't seem to work here, so I wanted to go to the United States." ”

Wang Zijun said: "That's good, Brother Long, when you were filming "Enter the Dragon", you also met a lot of people in Hollywood. And you have a lot of fame in the United States, and it's easy to succeed. ”…,

Bruce Lee said with some embarrassment: "There is some unhappiness between me and American filmmakers. ”

When filming "Enter the Dragon", Bruce Lee suffered from mild mania because of frequent headaches, and he was better for the Chinese, and the foreigners in the crew were almost offended by him.

Bruce Lee continued: "I want to open a film production company in the United States and am looking for a partner. ”

"Me?" Wang Zijun said strangely, "Why didn't Boss Zou or an American find me?" ”

Bruce Lee smiled: "Because I trust you." ”

Bruce Lee's trust, on the one hand, is because Wang Zijun saved his life, and then because Wang Zijun's film company is developing rapidly, and his vision and ability are unquestionable, and finally Ding Pei blew the wind on Bruce Lee's pillow.

The most important thing is that the last time Wang Zijun and Bruce Lee chatted, they said a lot of views and expectations about Hollywood and European films, and their analysis of the Hollywood film market was also quite unique. So as soon as Bruce Lee planned to open a company in the United States, he immediately thought of Wang Zijun.

Wang Zijun didn't think about it, and directly agreed: "That's okay, the three holes of the cunning rabbit, I also have to make a few more holes." ”

"Happy to work with"

"Happy to work with"

The two laughed and high-fived.

Wang Zirong on the side looked at his younger brother who was talking and laughing, and he couldn't tell what emotions were in his heart. He himself is now a big brother-level figure in Taipei, and his business is getting bigger and bigger, but compared to his younger brother, it is really not a level.

Not to mention the film company, even an instant no, oh no, it should be called a food group, can compare him to the big brother.

"Brother Long, big brother, Zijun, the dumplings are ready." Lin Qingxia and Wu Xiaozhen came out with dumplings.

Wu Xiaozhen, the former daughter A Fei, became a virtuous daughter-in-law and beckoned Wang Xianzhi to come in and eat dumplings.

"This Mr. Li also makes movies?" Wang Xianzhi asked.

Bruce Lee said: "Yes, I heard Zijun say that his kung fu is family heirloom." I'd like to visit my uncle and ask you for two tricks. ”

Wang Xianzhi waved his hand and said, "I can't do it anymore, I was secretly injured when I was young, and I can't do anything with people." ”

Bruce Lee was disappointed: "That's it, that's a pity." Then he became happy again, "I asked my uncle for martial arts, I don't have to fight, we can discuss it together." ”

"Not interested." Wang Xianzhi doesn't care what kind of international star you are, he doesn't give anyone face.

Bruce Lee glanced at Wang Zijun, hoping that he could help say good things. Wang Zijun rolled his eyes, shrugged his shoulders, and said that he couldn't help .......
