Regarding Wang Zijun's last words, many filmmakers from small and medium-sized companies scoffed: nonsense, making movies is to make money, of course, they will shoot whatever is popular, and if they don't follow the trend, they can only drink the wind.

However, the Golden Horse Awards jury and some people from professional film magazines very much agree with Wang Zijun's words.

Some of the members of the special jury are not filmmakers, but writers and calligraphers. These people rate movies from a purely literary point of view, so they have caused art films to dominate for a long time after the establishment of the Golden Horse Awards, which has affected the tendency of later film selection.

At the end of the award ceremony, the staff of ZOSE led everyone to the banquet.

Wang Zijun and his group were once again surrounded by reporters.

"Director Wang, you have won the Best Director two times in a row, do you have confidence in next year's Golden Horse Awards?"

Wang Zijun said with a smile: "I have always been very confident in the Golden Horse Awards. ”

"Miss Lin, when you participated in the filming of "If the Wine Sells Nothing", did you ever think that you would become a Golden Horse actress with this film?"

Lin Qingxia said: "No, I was only thinking about making a good movie at that time, and I didn't think about anything." ”

"Is there no confidence in Director Wang?".

Lin Qingxia said: "It's that I don't have confidence in myself, after all, it's only been two years since I started making movies, and I'm a newcomer in the film industry." ”

In addition to Wang Zijun and Lin Qingxia, the most beautiful is Sun Yue. In many cases, people pay more attention to the actor than even the best director and actress. For example, the reporters surrounded by Sun Yue are far more than Wang Zijun and Lin Qingxia.

After entangled with reporters for a long time, Wang Zijun finally regained his freedom, but he heard a burst of laughter.

Wang Zijun looked over, but it was two old men with glasses walking towards him. He suddenly felt happy in his heart, quickened his pace to greet him, and said with a smile: "Thank you two masters for your love." ”

These two people are Ye Gongchao and Zhou Shukai, both of whom are judges of the review team. And they are not ordinary judges, such as last year's Golden Horse Awards, Ye Gongchao was the convener.

I don't know much about Zhou Shukai and Wang Zijun, I only know that he has served as the ambassador of the Republic of China to various countries, and now he has no official position, and he passes the time by writing and teaching.

However, Ye Gongchao is like thunder, the powerful general of the Crescent Moon School, and Wang Zijun has also read a few of his works. Ye Gongchao was originally a foreign minister, and later an ambassador to the United States, more than 10 years ago, because of Outer Mongolia's entry into the United Nations, he was recruited back to Taiwan by Lao Chiang and dismissed, and now he is teaching at National Taiwan University.

Zhou Shukai said: "Where is love, your movie is very good, we old guys like it very much." ”

Ye Gongchao said: "I heard that you are studying at National Taiwan University now? ”

Wang Zijun said embarrassedly: "Three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, I am busy with some mundane things, I am ashamed"

Ye Gongchao said: "It's a good thing for young people to be busy, but I'm afraid that they will have nothing to do all day long." However, it is still very important to read, and you can also come and listen to my lectures when you have time. ”

"Definitely, definitely." Wang Zijun nodded and said.

Zhou Shukai patted Wang Zijun on the shoulder and said, "Come on, young people, make more good movies." ”

The two came by the way, and after saying a few words to Wang Zijun, they patted their butts and left.

Wang Zijun didn't keep it, these old men usually raise flowers, paint, teach, and stand, and they seem to be living a nourishing life, but in fact, they are all depressed in their hearts. Take Ye Gongchao as an example, what a beautiful scenery he was when he was young, but he was abandoned by Lao Jiang in the past ten years, and his political ambitions have nowhere to be displayed. He has hardly painted orchids in recent years, and all he painted was bamboo.

"Zijun, who are those two old gentlemen?" Lin Qingxia walked over and asked.

Wang Zijun said: "Ye Gongchao and Zhou Shukai. ”

"Oh, I remember, they were the members of the Golden Horse Awards jury." Lin Qingxia said suddenly. …,

Wang Zijun said: "Aren't you learning calligraphy? This old Mr. Ye Gongchao is a calligraphy master, do you want to learn from him? ”

Lin Qingxia smiled: "Forget it, I'll have time to practice now." When he was busy filming, he couldn't even sleep, if he learned from this old gentleman and didn't grow in every inspection, I am afraid that he would be so angry that the old man blew his beard. ”

Wang Zijun couldn't help but laugh when he heard Lin Qingxia say something interesting.

……

The news that "Dry Wine Sells Nothing" was nominated for seven Golden Horse Awards and five awards soon became the headlines of Hong Kong and Taiwan newspapers.

The next day, many entertainment magazines called one after another, all to take cover photos for Wang Zijun, Lin Qingxia, and Sun Yue. Wang Zijun had already taken Lin Qingxia to the crew of "Unparalleled in the World" at this time, where did he have the heart to care about them?

However, Sun Yue did not refuse, and for a week, he became the cover character of many magazines.

As for Wang Zijun's cover photo, it is the only one of "Next Magazine" and has been taken a long time ago.

"Impact", as Taiwan's number one film professional magazine, carefully elaborated on Wang Zijun's last speech, listing a series of data on the trend of various companies making movies, and finally commented: "Hollywood, as the world's largest film production base, although there is also a phenomenon of following the trend, but major companies are very sensible. The ratio of commercial films to art films, the ratio of various themes and large and small investments in commercial films, are based on scientific data. If Taiwanese films want to form a scale and system, they must pay attention to the phenomenon of following the trend......"

At this time, there was a film practitioners association in Taiwan, but unfortunately, the main function of this association was how to let the authorities reduce taxes and how to distribute benefits, and they hardly considered the long-term plan.

Now Wang Zijun has also been forcibly pulled into the association, but he has not attended a single meeting.

……

In Wang Zijun's version of "Unparalleled in the World", Wang Zijun plays Li Yilong, Lin Fengjiao plays Li Fengjie, Lin Qingxia plays the eldest princess, and Liu Dan plays Emperor Zhengde. Originally, the role of Emperor Zhengde was given to Qin Xianglin, but he was about to enter the crew of Qiong Yao's "Where the Seagull Flies", and the time was not easy to adjust. And since Liu Dan poached him from Hong Kong by Wang Zijun, except for playing Feng Jingyao in "Shanghai Tang", he really hasn't played any other good roles, so he got him over.

In addition, Zhao Yazhi plays the role of Jade Rabbit in the film, which is the role of Zhu Yin in the original version, and Liu Jiachang makes a cameo appearance as the neurotic warrior Zuo Lengchan (played by Zhang Yaoyang in the original film). And Wang Zijun's first love was left to Teresa Teng, who was far away in Japan, to make a cameo. Teresa Teng will return to Taiwan before the Chinese New Year, anyway, there are not many scenes, and the re-shooting will be made up when the time comes.

In addition, people like Cheng Long, Cheng Xiaodong, Ke Shouliang and others are also playing various supporting roles and tricks. Wang Zuxian's brothers and sisters will also play when Wang Zijun and Lin Feng were petite.

Wang Zijun thought that if someone turned out this movie again ten years later, I am afraid that they would unconsciously get a lot of surprises. is like watching the 83 version of "Shooting the Condor", a small soldier is actually Xingye, a maid is actually Carina Lau, and an official is actually Wu Zhenyu......

When waiting for the props group to set the scene, Wang Zijun clapped his hands and said: "Because the time is very tight, I have to work hard for everyone in the past two months, and I have to shoot at least twelve hours a day." I treat you to a supper every day, which is not included in the company's accounts, and everyone insists on it."

"No problem" Whether it is the actors or other staff, they all readily agreed.

In this era, it is common to make movies and work overtime continuously, and Wang Zijun has enough to take care of his employees.

is still the strongest team of the Wang family, and with the completion of several other dramas, all its elites have joined the filming of "Unparalleled in the World". …,

The costumes and art designs are all roughly drawn by Wang Zijun and finally modified by professionals, whether it is clothing or interior furnishings, they all carry the aesthetic style of later generations.

For the first time, these actors were exposed to nonsensical comedy, and they were so happy to laugh at a line for a long time.

For example, Liu Jiachang, this gentleman was invited by Wang Zijun a week after attending the Golden Horse Awards ceremony to perform martial arts master Zuo Lengchan.

"Fan, the fan over there is blowing a little stronger, ready for the next one"

"Match 52 of "Unparalleled in the World", Ikesh"

"Hey, who are you?" Wang Zijun was carrying a wooden stick for rolling noodles, and Lin Fengjiao was standing behind him with another wooden stick.

Liu Jiachang sat on the roof, dressed in an ancient fancy dress, and said very deeply: "I am Zuo Lengchan, who is known as a thousand-armed Rulai and invincible with iron palms on the rivers and lakes, and I am here today to avenge my brother-in-law." Hey"

Cheng Xiaodong gestured to the staff who controlled Weiya, the two of them ran away with a tightrope, and Liu Jiachang jumped down from the roof with the courage to glide towards Wang Zijun.

Liu Jiachang, who is not familiar with Hanging Weiya, did five times before and after barely getting there, but fortunately, he can change the stand-in halfway through the shot, but Liu Jiachang himself still has to land in the end.

As soon as Liu Jiachang appeared on the stage, he was extremely forced, and the fan blew up the leaves on the ground and flew wildly. According to inertial thinking, he is definitely a peerless master. It's a pity that the coquettish light skills flew over, and before they landed, they were knocked over by Wang Zijun with a rolling pin, and then Wang Zijun and Lin Fengjiao beat Liu Jiachang on the ground like hooligans.

Lin Fengjiao impatiently pushed Wang Zijun away, and said while beating people with a rolling pin: "Let me come, let me come"

The next shot.

"Jiachang, be a little melancholy during the monologue." Wang Zijun said with a smile.

Liu Jiachang sat on the stone steps with a blue nose and swollen face, one hand still dropped on his neck with gauze, and said to the camera: "I was planted in the hands of the little overlord brothers and sisters, and I was defeated except for ...... Zang Rui...... Again, I planted it in the hands of the Xiaobawang brothers and sisters, but it's not actually this version. They beat me with sticks, with the most brutal tricks of Street Fighter Forty-Two...... I was planted on a folding chair, and the wound still bleeds a lot......"

"Hahaha......" Liu Jiachang looked like a bear, his head was wrapped like an Indian Ah San, and he said strange words in his mouth, and often sandwiched English. Not only Liu Jiachang himself, but even the people watching from the sidelines laughed a few times.

finally passed, Liu Jiachang happily said to Wang Zijun: "What kind of broken script are you, I am playing a chivalrous man of the Ming Dynasty, and what is the history of blood and tears in the rivers and lakes, and I can actually speak English." ”

Wang Zijun rolled his eyes and said, "That's not funny." ”

Liu Jiachang said: "It's funny." ”

Wang Zijun said: "Isn't that okay?" ”

"It's kind of interesting." Liu Jiachang said, "Can you show me the complete script?" ”

"Of course you can" Wang Zijun patted the dust on his buttocks and shouted: "Next game"

……

"Hong Kong student, how do you feel?" Taking advantage of the moment's rest, Wang Zijun asked Cheng Longdao, who rushed over to run the trick.

"Very good, fortunately there is Old Man Yuan, otherwise who will teach drunken boxing?" Cheng Long said, "By the way, Yuan instructed the three of them, father and son, to return to Hong Kong tomorrow." ”

Wang Zijun said: "Then you will send them on my behalf, just say that I am too busy to get out of my body, so I won't send them." ”

"Okay, boss, don't worry, I'll do it." Cheng Long was actually a very good spoof person when he was filming, but somehow, as soon as he met Wang Zijun, he became serious......
