Chapter 372: Shoot the Grandmaster or Shoot the Rivers and Lakes
Chapter 372 Shoot the Grandmaster or Shoot the Jianghu
The matter of Wing Chun Gate and Hung Quan Gate, because of Zhang Le's interference, became a bit anticlimactic, and finally it was over. And then it was rumored that Zhang Le would shoot a movie about kung fu, which included Wing Chun and Hung Boxing.
And Feng Lei plays the role of Ip Man, the grandmaster of Wing Chun. Then he stood in the perspective of Wing Chun and said something like that, so he didn't feel so brainless.
Who is Ip Man? Maybe many people are still relatively unfamiliar, but when it comes to one of his disciples, it is well known.
Bruce Lee, it turns out that Ip Man is Bruce Lee's mentor! That must be amazing!
Who is more powerful Hung Boxing or Wing Chun? Is it really as Feng Lei said, Hong Quan is not worthy of lifting shoes for Wing Chun? That's not the case. Because Feng Lei also held a press conference for this, apologized for his words, and said that there is no high or low boxing, only those who practice boxing have strength and weakness.
This matter was immediately hyped up, and gradually formed a voice, that is, the whole thing was just a hype of movie promotion.
Of course, some sober-minded people naturally don't think so. But how many sober people are there in this world? Most of them will be swayed by media opinion.
Feng Lei's words are considered to be a hype method for movie promotion, and naturally no one will think that Hong Quan is really just a fart. As Zhang Le said, the impact of Feng Lei's words was minimized through public opinion. There are even many fans looking forward to the contest between Wing Chun and Hung Quan in Zhang Le's film. In this way, Hung Quan became as popular as Wing Chun.
"The Grandmaster? Ip Man can indeed afford these four words. Mr. Zhang wants to invite me to play the role of a master of Hong Boxing? Liu Jiadong looked at the script handed to him by Zhang Le and said.
Zhang Le found himself, and he would definitely not invite Liu Jiaban to serve as the martial arts instructor of the film, after all, Zhang Le's martial arts instructor team has already sprung up, and even their veteran martial arts instructor team can't raise their heads. Then, when Zhang Le found him, he naturally invited him to play a role in the film.
"It's not!" Zhang Le shook his head and said. The master of Hong Quan in "The Grandmaster" is played by Liu Jiadong. That's undoubtedly overkill. Although Liu Jiadong's kung fu has not reached the realm of a grandmaster, his image and temperament are quite grandmaster's bearing. When he saw Liu Jiadong, Zhang Le thought of a person: Gong Yutian!
"Oh?" Liu Jiadong looked at Zhang Le with some surprise, but after thinking about it, he was relieved. If he was invited to play the role of the master of Hong Boxing inside, he would definitely not agree, and Zhang Le obviously knew this. After all, he is a face of Hong Fist. If you lose to Wing Chun in the film, you will inevitably be taken advantage of the opportunity to hype.
"The master of Hong Boxing in the film, Mr. Liu recommends one. I think it's too easy to find a master who knows how to Hong Boxing in Liu's class. Zhang Le smiled and said, "I want to invite Mr. Liu to play the role of the Bagua Xingyi Grandmaster Gong Haneda." ”
"Miyahanada?" Liu Jiadong was a little surprised at first. Then he nodded. Although he is the descendant of Hongquan, after all, he has served as the martial arts director of so many films, and he naturally has a deep study of other boxing techniques, whether it is gossip or Xingyi, it is naturally not a problem for him. It is understandable that Zhang Le found him.
Although Liu Jiadong didn't read the script carefully, he was still very impressed by the role of Gong Yutian. There are a lot of scenes, and the impression is also very deep. For this role, Liu Jiadong is not excluded. Moreover, Zhang Le also left him a role. Recommended by him, he is still a little tempted by this. Nowadays, who doesn't want to get a role in Zhang Le's film?
What's more, Liu Jiadong does not reject this film. Although Ip Man of Wing Chun is the male protagonist in it. But the whole film is not filming Wing Chun, nor is it filming Ip Man. He didn't study the script carefully, but he could see that Zhang Le's film was more like filming a section of rivers and lakes.
"Tomb Raider" has not yet been promoted for its release. Zhang Le's new film is hotly hyped, and even the lower part of "Xin'er in Wonderland" has not yet been painted. This has to be said to be a strange image. But everyone in the know knows that it was because Zhang Le wiped Feng Lei's buttocks.
"Xin'er in Wonderland" is still hot at the box office. However, judging from the trend, it is a little difficult to surpass the box office of the previous part. And in terms of its evaluation, it is not as good as the upper part. Even if the lower part is visually superior.
Of course, when everyone mentions this film, especially those filmmakers, every time they talk about this film, they are more lamented by the film's ability to attract money, and how much income this film has brought to Zhang Le to Xinle Film and Television.
Over the years, Zhang Le has long lost the careful calculation he started with. Although he was not the richest, he had enough money for him to spend, or enough for him to squander. Therefore, he didn't care at all about how much money "Xinle Wonderland" could make. Of course, he is still very happy to make money, after all, that is also an aspect of the film's success.
This film is not plagiarized by him, but original. It's his own thing.
After Yang Xin'er finished filming "Tomb Raider", she turned down all film appointments and announcements, and devoted herself to spending her energy on "The Grandmaster". She knows Zhang Le's purpose for making this film.
Films that win the box office and films that win awards are completely different. As far as the actors are concerned, their efforts are not the same.
During the Spring Festival, Zhang Le and Yang Xin'er put down what they were doing and spent a year with their families in peace. After the Spring Festival, the two went to work again.
"Why does Director Chen have time to come to me? I've heard that a Hollywood studio has invited you to shoot a film! Zhang Le said with a smile to Chen Ke in front of him.
Chen Ke's filming of the "Spider-Man" series has achieved a good response internationally, and it is not a problem to attract the attention of Hollywood. However, what people didn't expect was that Chen Ke repeatedly rejected the invitation of Hollywood studios. Zhang Le said this, but it was just a joke.
"That group of guys who pick the door, it's very embarrassing to cooperate with them, or to cooperate with you, well, it's comfortable to cooperate with your Xinle Film and Television." Chen Ke said with a smile.
Chen Ke cooperated with Xinle Film and Television, perhaps because of Zhang Le's relationship, every time he exceeded the budget and applied for additional investment, Xinle Film and Television was very happy. But I have to admit that none of the films cooperated by Chen Ke and Xinle Film and Television made Xinle Film and Television lose money, and they all made a lot of money, especially the "Spider-Man" series.
Of course, the reason for making a lot of money is nothing more than that the film was released abroad and did an excellent box office.
"What, Director Chen has an idea again? What you want to shoot, Xinle Film and Television is happy to invest. Zhang Le smiled and said.
"Refreshing!" Chen Ke smiled, "I fell in love with a comic in your hand!" ”
"Which one?" Zhang Le said with a smile.
"Iron Man!" Chen Ke said.
"Your eyes are really poisonous!" Zhang Le said with a smile.
"I wanted to make 'Transformers', but who doesn't know that you're going to make this series yourself. I'm too embarrassed to rob you! Chen Ke said with a smile.
In fact, there is another reason why he did not shoot "Transformers". After all, Huaxia is not as good as Europe and the United States, and if the filming of "Transformers" is not related to the military, it is impossible at all. If those scenes were missing, would "Transformers" still be "Transformers"? And how deep Zhang Le's background in the military is, he still knows it.
This film, I'm afraid that the whole of China will be filmed by Zhang Le. Of course, if Zhang Le comes forward to contact the military, other directors are still possible. But is it possible? It's no secret that Zhang Le wants to shoot "Transformers". It's just that people don't know why, he still has no plans to shoot.
"Transformers, hehe, I'm about to put it on the agenda!" Zhang Le said with a smile.
"Oh, are you going to shoot 'Transformers' when you shoot your next kung fu movie?" Chen Ke asked.
"Nope! Before I made Transformers, I would also make a film about robots. Zhang Le smiled and said, "You said that the robot knows kung fu, and then got it to the ring to compete, did you have a head?" (To be continued.) )
