283 [Fierce Box Office]
"Someone chasing you?" Wang Zijun stared at Zhao Yazhi for a long time, and she was a little uncomfortable before she said, "There seem to be a lot of people chasing you, right?" ⑤???? Read the latest chapter of the book"
Zhao Yazhi said distressedly: "This is different, he proposed to me." ”
"Oh?" Wang Zijun asked, "What kind of person is it?" ”
"His name is Huang Hanwei, he is a doctor, and he is more than ten years older than me." Zhao Yazhi replied.
Dizzy, Wang Zijun was completely speechless, how could the people he should have met still bumped into each other. But it seems that Zhao Yazhi and Huang Hanwei don't seem to know each other for 74 years.
Wang Zijun asked, "What is your impression of him?" ”
Zhao Yazhi thought for a while and said: "Handsome, handsome, polite, learned, personable, and rich, he is very good to me and my mother." ”
Wang Zijun asked, "Then do you like him?" ”
Zhao Yazhi shook her head and said, "I just think this person is not bad, but I don't feel anything." ”
Wang Zijun said: "Isn't that over, what do you have to think about?" ”
Zhao Yazhi said: "But my mother likes him very much." ”
Wang Zijun asked with a smile: "Is that your mother marrying or are you marrying?" ”
"Hate" Zhao Yazhi was laughed at by Wang Zijun and secretly punched him.
Wang Zijun comforted: "With your current fame and conditions, what kind of man can't be found?" Why bother to marry an old man who is more than ten years older than you. ”
Huang Hanwei became an old man in Wang Zijun's mouth, in fact, he is in his thirties, just in the prime of life, not only is he a famous doctor and handsome, but his family is also a famous family, in the eyes of most NV people, this is a diamond king.
Zhao Yazhi said: "When I was studying, I didn't have a few friends, but I often sang, danced, and played ball with boys. When the boys came to play in our house, my mother not only called me crazy like anything else, but she was hospitable every time, and all of my male classmates adored my mother......"
"So what?" Wang Zijun said.
"So, after I graduated, I slowly became well-behaved, learned to cook and make soup with my mother, and then wanted to find a man to marry and have a happy family." Saying that, Zhao Yazhi looked at Wang Zijun funny, "It's just that I didn't expect to be tricked into filming by you." ”
"Have you ever wondered what you're after for yourself?" Wang Zijun asked.
Zhao Yazhi said: "I don't know very well myself, my previous dream was to travel around the world, but this is a fantasy when I was young. Then, when filming got busy, I couldn't take care of anything, in fact, I wanted to stay at home and do nothing now, and sleep until I woke up naturally every day. ”
"That's not right, if you marry your husband, you can be a full-time master.
Zhao Yazhi's wild xìng when she was a child has not been completely domesticated, and she immediately shook her head when she thought of that kind of day: "Don't want it, you can't suffocate to death." ”
Wang Zijun said: "Then don't get married." ”
Zhao Yazhi smiled and asked, "Is there a boss like you?" Let employees not get married. ”
Wang Zijun smiled bitterly and thought: Did this Ah Zhi eat the wrong yào today, and he didn't want to marry and came to ask me, does Xiu anyone love?
Wang Zijun said: "You are now famous in Xiangjiang, that Huang Hanwei dares to chase you, your family background should be good, right?" ”
"yes." Zhao Yazhi nodded.
Wang Zijun asked: "Such a famous family, will you agree to continue filming after you get married?" ”
Originally, in that time and space, Zhao Yazhi's first marriage broke down like this. This book is updated in real time DU(5)8.сΟm According to convention, after marriage, the nv star should be family-oriented and slowly withdraw from the entertainment industry. But after Zhao Yazhi got married, movies and television were made one after another, not only made blockbuster movies such as "Half a Pound and Eight Taels" and "Fat Money Cold", but also starred in "Shanghai Tang" as a smash hit and became a popular TV station. The more popular Zhao Yazhi became, the more dissatisfied the Huang family became, because this kind of throwing was embarrassing to them, and finally made trouble to the point of having to divorce. …,
Zhao Yazhi smiled sweetly when she heard this: "Even if you convince me, then I won't marry." ”
Wang Zijun couldn't understand why Zhao Yazhi would ask him such a boring question, obviously he had already rejected that person in his heart, and he had to ask him once. Not only did Wang Zijun not understand, but in fact, Zhao Yazhi herself couldn't say it clearly. A diamond king proposed to her, and Zhao Yazhi's first reaction was to let Wang Zijun know. I don't understand if it's out of show-off or whatever.
The light in the screening room suddenly dimmed, and the screen was blue, and the ink animation tiger of Wang's Film Company pounced on it in a roar.
In the entire movie theater, Cheng Long was the most nervous, staring at the screen with clenched fists.
At the beginning of the movie, Tan Daoliang played the killer, who had a fight with the target after receiving the killing task, and finally killed the target. This beginning is decent, although Tan Daoliang's tuǐ method is very good-looking, but Hong Kong audiences who are used to watching Bruce Lee's kung fu movies do not find it so unusual.
Many reporters thought to themselves, this is an ordinary kung fu movie, Wang Zijun bragged so much, this time it was a shame.
It wasn't until Huang Feihong played by Cheng Long appeared that a funny move during martial arts training made the audience feel different. In the past, kung fu movies or martial arts films were mostly serious, ruthless, hot-blooded, righteous and the like, but this movie seems to be based on light-hearted and funny.
When the bully played by Yuan Biao was bullying, Cheng Long fought with Yuan Biao on the street. Yuan Biao held a single knife in his hand, while Cheng Long held two cucumbers to fight against him, a play to teach the bully a lesson, as if he was playing from beginning to end, with exaggerated expressions and movements, every move and style was full of drama.
"Haha, if you make a mistake, it's okay to fight."
"This Wong Fei Hung is so funny"
"Who played that cousin, she looks good."
“……”
The film mí, who attended the premiere, began to discuss it in a low voice, and it was only at this time that "Drunken Fist" was really recognized by the audience.
And that's just the beginning
The bully's father came to mén to take revenge, Cheng Long was punished for molesting his cousin whom he had never met, and then ran away from home to eat the overlord's meal, until Su called Huā appeared, a farce after farce, which made the audience burst into laughter. There were even people who held their stomachs while auditioning on the armrests of the seats.
"I'm laughing to death, how can I shoot like this?"
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die, my stomach hurts."
"Wow, Su's drunken fist called huā is good, and he deserves to be Old Man Yuan."
“……”
When the audience saw Cheng Long following Su to practice the basic skills, the audience's habitual thinking thought that Cheng Long would become a bull because of this, but they didn't expect that after a few days of practice, Cheng Long tricked the master whose martial arts were higher than his unknown number into the water tank, but he ran away.
Watching Su Huāyīn overturn in the ditch and climb out of the water tank with an unlucky expression, many film critics realized that this was another subversive work of Wang's company. The book is updated in real time DU(5) 8.сΟm
"Lu dòngbin - drunk lifting pot force thousand catties, iron crutch Li - spinning and kneeling and drunk is true, Han Zhongli - stumbling and hugging the top of the heart, Zhang Guolao - drunk tossing cup kick chain, Han Xiangzi - grabbing the wrist and getting drunk **, Lan Caihe - single mention toast to break the waist and break Uncle Cao Guo - immortal toast lock throat buckle, He Xiangu - bounce waist to offer drunk dàng step ......"
On the screen, Cheng Longkou read the boxing book of drunken boxing, and finally began to practice drunken boxing. The audience finally burst into applause, and after a long time of being funny, and occasionally coming to a serious place, everyone is still very much looking forward to it, especially after listening to the boxing book, and then seeing the wonderful moves of jīng, they all feel that the original drunken boxing is so powerful.
It's just that......
When Cheng Long practiced He Xiangu, he began to be funny again.
Wang Zijun saw Bruce Lee beside him looking at the screen thoughtfully, and asked, "Brother Long, what do you think of this drunken fist?" ”…,
Bruce Lee said: "It's a bit interesting, but no matter what kind of martial arts, it depends on the specific user." As far as the drunken fist in the movie is concerned, watching xìng is more important than the actual meaning. Even if you abandon the huā whistle in the film and have no practical use, if the user does not have enough basic skills, or if the speed is not fast enough, this kind of boxing will not even be able to beat an amateur boxer. This drunken fist seems to have some shadows of lying on the ground. More than a decade ago, I met a master of lying on the ground in San Francisco, and at that time I mainly practiced chūn boxing, and I had not practiced the tuǐ method of wing chūn, and I suffered a small loss in the lower three roads. ”
Hehe, I didn't expect Bruce Lee to be deflated at times.
The lower plate of the chūn fist has always been very devastating, but I heard that the chūntuǐ method that is not spread is very powerful, as for whether it is true, Wang Zijun has not seen it, and I really don't know whether it is true or not.
But Yongchūn punching the ring is weak, but this is true, because there are various rules in the ring, many places cannot be touched, and many moves cannot be used. Yong chūn's bī kung fu is very strong, it is good to say, can suppress the opponent from beginning to end, otherwise in the ring, a boxer with similar strength will definitely win the yong chūn fighter.
Wang Zijun and Bruce Lee chatted about martial arts without saying a word, of course, basically Bruce Lee said it, Wang Zijun only listened.
And in the theater, the audience's laughter basically never stopped.
There is no doubt that "Drunken Fist" was a success, and it almost mobilized the laughing nerves of theater audiences.
The next day, a film review in Ming Pao Weekly wrote: "I've never seen a movie like this, and I still can't tell if it's a kung fu movie or a comedy, or as Wong Pictures said in its promotion, it's a kung fu comedy." It's not separate, and the funny inside is perfectly combined with kung fu moves. I started laughing from the third minute and laughed all the way to the end of the film. Halfway through the movie, I was worried that the plot would become serious because it was mixed with inspiration and revenge, as well as the punishment of the villain. But as it turned out, my worries were unnecessary, and until the end, when Wong Fei Hung beat the killer to death, the director and screenwriter were still making jokes. "Drunken Fist" is not a very meaningful movie, but it is definitely a good movie, it will make you sit in the cinema and laugh for two hours from beginning to end, so that you can forget all your worries......"
Few people go to the cinema to watch movies in line with their art, and what can be funny is a good movie, not to mention laughing from beginning to end.
As soon as various film reviews came out in newspapers and magazines, coupled with the audience who had participated in the premiere swearing that it was good, it immediately aroused the curiosity of countless movie lovers.
As the release date approaches, major theaters in Taiwan and Hong Kong have replaced the posters of "Drunken Fist".
What makes Wang Zijun laugh the most is that other people's posters are the most obvious names of the director or starring actors, and the poster of "Drunken Fist" actually puts the names of the screenwriter and producer very big, without him, because Wang Zijun's name is written after these two positions.
A week later, "Drunken Fist" was simultaneously released in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Taiwan's "Seagull Flying" has already been drawn, and there is no rival to compete with in the same period, not to mention Hong Kong, the only blockbuster "Ghost Horse Double Star" this year, will be released for several months.
It can be said that "Drunken Fist" is the only movie that can be watched in the Chinese film industry at this stage.
Due to Wang's Film Company's preparation for several months, "Drunken Fist" was rolled out in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and almost every cinema was screened. Due to the large number of theaters, the average attendance rate at the beginning was only seven or eight percent, and later, the attendance rate began to rise steadily, and the entire line was full in less than a week.
"The best movie of the year", "The funniest martial arts film in history", "Wang Zijun's screenwriting masterpiece" and other labels, so that many audiences who don't plan to enter the cinema can't hold back their curiosity, and finally buy movie tickets. …,
"Drunken Fist" grossed a staggering NT$6.6 million in its first week in Taiwan and a record of HK$1.5 million in Hong Kong.
This is a jaw-dropping data, and now many directors in Hong Kong and Taiwan have worked hard, and the total box office is so much.
This movie alone made director Chen Daosheng, starring Cheng Long, and even Tan Daoliang, who played the villain in it, popular. Not to mention the old man Yuan Xiaotian, his role as Huāzi is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The film has only been released for a week, and countless investors have approached Mén and asked the directors and actors to shoot the sister part of "Drunken Fist" or Su Qier.
Eye-catching, robbing money is not this way to rob money, this data was reached in the first week, what will be the final box office?
A few months later, the Hong Kong box office of "Ghost Horse Double Star" is more than 6 million Hong Kong dollars, Wang Zijun believes that under his own operation, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers' theater chain will be fully rolled out, and there is no reason why it will be less than the box office of "Ghost Horse Double Star".
Of course, in addition to Wang's Film Company, the bosses of major theaters also make a lot of money, and they only regard Wang Zijun as the God of Wealth.
Huang Hanzhuo of the First Film Agency called, and his tone couldn't help but be a little sour: "Congratulations, Boss Wang." ”
"Rejoice and rejoice." Wang Zijun said with a smile.
It's really a joy that the West Mén Cinema Line, a subsidiary of First Pictures, is now the first of the five major cinema chains in Taiwan (there were only four major cinema chains, but now there is one more Wang Cinema Line), and the box office dividends of Taiwan's cinema chains belong to Huang Hanzhuo who gets the most.
No matter how much money he makes, Huang Hanzhuo's heart is not a taste, as soon as "Drunken Fist" comes out, there is no film company in Taiwan that can compete with Wang's.
At the same time as "Drunken Fist" was released, Bruce Lee and Sammo Hung were about to board for the United States.
At this time, Zou Wenhuai found Bruce Lee, mainly because of the question of whether to continue filming "Game of Death".
"Game of Death" was designed by Bruce Lee Jīng, and he personally drew sketches of the five-story pass tower, and the gatekeepers of each level also made explanations in Chinese and English. In addition, he also invited masters such as Ilu Shandu, Ji Hanzai, and Jabbar to shoot the scene of the Jīng Cai fight. It can be said that Bruce Lee Jīng is a movie created by his heart.
In another time and space, the film was shelved because of Bruce Lee's death, and it was not until a few years later that an imitator reshoot was completed.
Bruce Lee's creation of "Game of Death" was actually before "Enter the Dragon", which began in 1972, but after shooting a few sets of shots, it was put on hold because of the need to start filming "Enter the Dragon".
After the production of "Enter the Dragon" was completed, Bruce Lee had a new idea, so he took it out and re-discussed the script with Zou Wenhuai, Ding Pei and others, and then Bruce Lee's body was in condition.
"Bruce, you weren't in good health last year, and I can't embarrass you. But now that you're healthy and this is another movie that you take very seriously, don't you want to finish it? Zou Wenhuai said.
Since Bruce Lee left, although Golden Harvest has made some money-making movies from time to time, there is no one who can take the lead. Especially after the stock market crash, the Shaw Brothers still has a high-grossing "Seventy-two Tenants" to support the mén side, but Jiahe has nothing.
Bruce Lee thought about it for a while, but he still couldn't wipe his face, and said: "But I already have a new shooting plan now, why don't I finish filming this movie now?" ”
In fact, the script of "Game of Death" is very immature, after all, it was a script written by Bruce Lee a few years ago (it was later released in another version, and the screenwriter was also another person), in terms of the fun of the plot and the content of the viewable xìng is far inferior to "Enter the Dragon", because it is more inclined to the jīng color of the fight scenes, which will seem a bit monotonous to ordinary audiences. It was also for this reason that "Game of Death" was shelved and "Enter the Dragon", which had a better plot. …,
After Bruce Lee finished filming "Enter the Dragon", he had new ideas, but these ideas were just thoughts, and there was not much progress after discussing with Zou Wenhuai for a long time at that time, and if he wanted to shoot it now, it would be tantamount to rewriting and making a movie. Of course, in Golden Harvest's warehouse, there are still 40 minutes of master tape he filmed back then, and he can barely cut out 10 minutes of content.
Zou Wenhuai said: "Didn't we say it at the time? As soon as "Enter the Dragon" is finished, "Game of Death" will be filmed. "Game of Death" is a place on your martial arts philosophy, did you just give up? ”
Bruce Lee was silent, although he was sometimes stubborn, but his words still counted, and he did promise Zou Wenhuai. After thinking for a long time, Bruce Lee said: "That's it, I'm cooperating with Wang Zijun now, I'll call him and ask him." ”
Zou Wenhuai nodded, to be honest, he really couldn't figure out why Bruce Lee abandoned him and went to Wang Zijun to cooperate. However, after hearing that Wang Zijun and Bruce Lee opened a film company in the United States together, he still had some resentment towards Wang Zijun in his heart, just like a frustrated man who was robbed of his NV friend.
Bruce Lee quickly dialed Wang Zijun's phone, and after Wang Zijun heard him talk about the situation, he couldn't say anything, but said: "You can decide this Brother Long, I have no opinion." ”
"Okay, let's put our movie on hold for a while, and then I'll talk about it after I finish filming Game of Death." Bruce Lee thought about it and hung up the phone, and then informed Sammo Hung and others that they would not be busy going to the United States first.
Seeing Bruce Lee finish this series of actions, Zou Wenhuai finally had a smile on his face.
――――――――
Well, I came together in the morning and found out that Han Han was going to stop fighting with **, and I was very disappointed, so I paid attention to it again.
The 15,000 words I said today will not be updated as usual, but it will be replaced with three more, and each will be 5,000 words.
