Andy Zhou looked at the picture on the computer screen with his mouth wide open, and said in surprise, is this a martial arts movie? How does it feel closer to HBO's "Rome" war epic?

"Kim, come and take a look~~ Come and see this film~!!" Andy Zhou wiped his mouth and shouted excitedly to the editor-in-chief, Mohamed King.

"What are you yelling at, how many times have you said it, the office is going to call me editor-in-chief, you idiot." Mohammad King came over, looked at the female editor snickering next to him, patted Andy Zhou's head speechlessly and said, "You wipe your mouth clean before you speak!" ”

Editor-in-Chief...... Let's take a look at this first. Andy Zhou touched his head and excitedly opened the film of "Shooting the Condor" just now.

Mohamed King couldn't help frowning, his subordinate really didn't know how to measure, what was worth being so excited about, wasn't it just to write a criticism of the film, isn't it simple?

But at the beginning of the video, Mohammad King was also frightened when he saw the beggar disciple rushing up and pressing the camera with the Mongolian soldier's brains bursting, and then all his attention was immediately deeply attracted by the content of the video, staring intently at the screen, without blinking his eyes for three minutes, and watching it in one breath......

After reading it, Mohammad King's first reaction was to say to Andy Zhou: "Let it go again!" And this time, he enlarged the picture on the screen, not looking at the protagonist, but carefully looking at the details in the picture, the expressions, costumes, and movements of each actor.

"The actors are really good, everyone is doing well...... It's strange ~ these Chinese actors don't even have a roster of casts...... But it seems that the acting is excellent, which is completely different from other Chinese TV dramas......" Mohammad King said a little strangely.

has been the editor-in-chief of the entertainment section of the New York Times for decades, Mohamed King can be said to be familiar with the style characteristics of film and television dramas around the world, although China's historical dramas have always been of a very high standard, and the starring and scripts are usually impeccable, but there are not many works that can really get on the international stage, because they all have some small problems with poor production, such as the most popular overseas drama "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", although the leading actors are all first-class actors, but once it comes to group dramas and war scenes, The performance of those minor supporting characters can be described as inferior, and the soldiers in the background often fight like children...... is too fake, which makes European and American audiences who have always paid attention to details feel very dramatic.

And this "Shooting the Condor" from beginning to end is not at all like a TV series from China, the production is rigorous, and the performance of every actor is very in place, making it easy for people to enter this plot.

Andy Zhou is only a small editor of the "New York Times", not as professional as Mohammad King, but as a Chinese, he can see such a martial arts drama, not only because he thinks his pictures are beautiful, but because he feels a feeling that Hong Kong films have never had before......

Compared with those Hong Kong films with small doors and single scenes in the impression, the scenes in it are converted very quickly, and the picture is full of impact, many of which are shot with the wide-angle lens of the movie, and the close-ups of the characters are very charming, and the martial arts movements seek meat in one move, which is very real.

What's more, Andy Zhou seems to feel in those shots, these people exude a charm, which is exclusive to their nation, they don't seem to be afraid of death at all, and their eyes seem to be saying the belief of "not to live, but to die".

In many Hong Kong dramas in the past, the heroes of those costume films would perform such scenes, but the audience can easily feel that they are "acting", they can feel it, they are "fake high", and the tragic emotions can't come up at all, just like watching a group of people singing and performing, and the audience can't feel death and pain from them, so there will be no shocking feeling.

But in the eyes of these beggars, Andy Zhou fully felt what it meant to be dead, and he could fully feel the despair, anger, grief, and hatred in the eyes of these people...... There was hatred in their eyes, more of a sober and fearless temperament...... Their calmness in the face of death is shocking!

People who often watch film and television dramas actually know that simple anger is very good performance, but it is very rare to show sobriety under anger, and these actors have obviously done it, and they have done it very well.

Andy Chow saw in the eyes of these beggars a belief similar to Don Quixote who rushed to the windmill, and suddenly, Andy Chow even felt that the person he saw just now was not a beggar, but a knight in the Middle Ages in Europe wearing armor and facing thousands of troops, but still rushing towards the enemy...... It's just too stylish......

"Editor-in-chief, what do you think of this flower? Let's not write a manuscript to criticize Li Xiaole. Andy Zhou looked at Mohamed King, who had been silent for a long time, and asked as excitedly as possible, his eyes full of anticipation.

"Hmm...... Not bad indeed. Mohammad King nodded with a complicated expression, looked down and thought about what he was measuring, looking at Andy Zhou looking at him with some disappointment for a long time, seeing that he didn't react, he turned around and gently kicked the desk next to him, while muttering angrily: "Anyway, we are also professional media people, even scolding this kind of film, our "New York Times" is too despicable~!" Are we still fucking media people!? ”

Mohammad King was furious when he heard this, and he casually walked over with a document in his hand: "What are you muttering!? Who told you that we were going to scold this Chinese. ”

"Editor-in-chief, are you saying we don't write critical drafts anymore!?" Andy Zhou was hit on the back by the document, and instead of laughing, he shouted in surprise.

"Criticism? Why criticize, the Chinese can make TV series like this, we can't be too harsh on them. Mohammad King snorted and patted the young Chinese editor Andy Zhou on the back of the head: "Okay, I don't know what you kid thinks, you want to say something good for your Chinese dramas, right, okay, I'll let you be happy today, lest you always nag behind your back, you don't write any criticism, what is your feeling after watching the film, you just try to write it." ”

"What about Fox?" Andy Zhou asked excitedly, the Murdoch family is not easy to mess with.

"What happened to Fox TV? Did we dare to scold Stalin, Hitler's New York Times, before World War II began!? Need to wag your tail to curry favor with the Murdoch Brits? Mohammad Kim said with a righteous look on his face.

In fact, he already has a score in his heart, this Hong Kong drama has such a level, the potential of Pirate TV is self-evident, if he helps Fox TV at this time, then it is equivalent to making a feud with Li Xiaole, looking at this momentum, it is not necessary that Black Pearl Company will be the second News Group in the future......

"Good! Got it~! Andy Zhou nodded fiercely, not to mention how energetic he was, he had never been so excited about being an entertainment editor for so long, finally~~! There is a purely Chinese-made drama that can enter the mainstream market in the United States~~~~!!

Mohammad King watched his Chinese subordinates go to work, and he took out a cigarette and smoked it, thinking in his heart, it seems that Li Xiaole has really invested in this episode, and the overall effect does not seem to be worse than "Roma", it seems that millions of ratings should be guaranteed, but the problem is that it is made by all Chinese...... The audience of this series is really narrow, and it is really impossible to recover the cost, and the passing line of 8.25 million viewers still seems out of reach...... You must know that "Roma" has only reached 3 million viewers, just to see if Li Xiaole can survive until the end of the series......

The key issue is 3D ...... This is the X-factor of the success of "Condor Shooting", Mohammad King repeats this word repeatedly, but he can't imagine what a 3D TV series looks like......

At the same time, in the Emei Film and Television Base, Zeng Zhiwei, who is the producer of the TVB side of "Shooting the Condor" in North America, is frowning and looking at the promotion poster this time, looking at the supporting roles occupying a lot of space and looking a little dissatisfied......

At this time, I heard my assistant rushing in excitedly and shouting: "Big brother~~ There is news in the United States, HBO TV is going to buy our replay rights~! ”

"You're not mistaken." Zeng Zhiwei's eyes lit up, his worries in the past few days were finally swept away, and after getting a definite answer, he rushed directly to the direction of Li Xiaole's editing room.

trotted all the way to the dark editing room, not a single light was turned on, and there was a picture of "Shooting the Condor" on the LCD screen in front of him, but it was very strange that this picture turned out to be ghosted, and it looked very blurry...... It's very hairy, so I can only shout: "Director Li is not here?" Director Lee~~? ”

As he was shouting, he heard a figure get up from the darkness and complain, "Who, didn't you say that you are not allowed to come in?" ”

Li Xiaole, who was wearing a pair of strange glasses, stood up from the bench, rushed over and saw Zeng Zhiwei's face a little better, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Brother Zeng, I didn't know it was you who came in." As he spoke, he took off his 3D glasses, rubbed his swollen eyes, and kept his tears in his eyes, and Ha Zhiyuan next to him also reacted the same way to say hello to Zeng Zhiwei: "Brother Zeng is so ......" His eyes were also red with tears......

"Le Zai...... I'm so good at this play...... You're crying. Zeng Zhiwei was stunned for a while, seeing that the blurred picture on the TV screen was the fragment of Zhou Botong teaching Guo Jing to play each other, and he felt very strange in his heart, this little couple is too emotional, what is there to cry about......
