Chapter 829 Scene 829 New Condor Shooting Starts
On the second day after the reporters of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", an all-Chinese actor series, released it, news of it appeared in the media all over the United States, of course, in all the news, there was almost no positive encouragement, all negative comments.
"An arrogant couple, Li Xiaole and his girlfriend have no one in their eyes." The New York Times reported on the cultural event with a huge headline: "Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Benedict Cumberbatch, Heath Ledger, Johnson Scarlett...... A number of Hollywood A-list stars joined "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" as its voice actors, and the heroine Korean actor Ha Ji Won said that the starring lineup exceeded the dubbing lineup, and she was the best actress in Asia. ”
The headline of the Wall Street Journal was: "Chinese Manifesto, Trying to Subvert Hollywood's Film and Television Maniac Couple." ”
Even the famous TV host Larry King joked on his talk show: "Think about it, everyone, you will see a TV series, they are voiced by Iron Man, Hulk, Magneto, Gandalf, Sherlock Holmes, Black Widow, and the starring role is a group of Chinese warriors with swords shouting and killing...... It's so weird~~"
It's only been a few days, from the announcement of the production of martial arts dramas on Pirate TV, to the determination of the crew of the all-Chinese team, and the dubbing of Hollywood movie stars, everything is so fast. attributed to the news at the press conference, the news broke one after another, which really made the fans and netizens who paid attention to movie entertainment and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" active, and many Chinese fans were very pleased, this should be regarded as a strong alliance, right?
But for Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Scarlett's fans of the subway poles of the century, this news is undoubtedly very infuriating.
No matter what fame, acting skills, or influence, American fans think that Tom Cruise is obviously a lot better than those Hong Kong actors! It's insulting to be the voice of them.
Everyone knows that according to Li Xiaole's previous style, he will definitely pursue perfection in all aspects, but doesn't it have to be so ridiculous? Get a Chinese from the top superstars...... I really don't know what Li Xiaole thinks.
In a Yahoo News comment, Fleming-d wrote sarcastically: "This is the thinking of a typical nationalist, in order to highlight the excellence of his own national actors, pull other actors to do the back~~ Is it important to dub? Of course it is important, but it is not necessary to invite so many first-line actors, I think this is simply malicious hype, I can only say that the stars who know Li Xiaole are really unlucky, you are all used by this cunning Chinese. ”
Of course, the Hong Kong actors in "Shooting the Condor" are not nobodies, take Liang Chaowei as an example, not to mention in Asia, but also talk about international influence, he not only won the Cannes Best Actor with "In the Mood for Love", but also won countless praises when Ang Lee's "Lust and Caution" was released in North America last year.
This handsome Hong Kong guy with melancholy eyes and superb acting skills has also embraced many die-hard fans in North America, and one of them, Lina Movie Fans, wrote excitedly on Facebook:
"I heard that Heath Ledger is going to dub Liang Chaowei, this is really exciting, both of them are so ~~ so talented handsome actors, and they are both so charming, working together is a perfect match, I can't wait to watch this "Legend of the Condor Heroes"~~"
In addition, Andrew, from New Jersey, wrote on his blog: "I have always hoped to see a pure Hong Kong martial arts film, and this time I may be able to reproduce the era of Shaw Brothers martial arts films in B-grade films"
For many American fans who originally like martial arts themes, the top star actors in Hong Kong plus the dubbing of Hollywood big names, plus Li Jesus, this is simply a perfect match!!
However, as long as they have seen Ha Jiwon's works, everyone is sure that the Korean actress is undoubtedly full of talent and potential, but after the sensational Asian "Those Girls We Chase", the extremely talented actress has retreated into the background and has no new works.
The sudden "retirement" of this kind of actress is never uncommon, most of them are due to emotional reasons, many of them go home to teach their husbands and children, or they marry into wealthy families, and they are happy to be mediocre and stable......
Even if she makes a comeback later, she will lose her aura and embark on the routine of eating her old book, even if Ha Ji Won once had wonderful performances, but she has been abandoned for 3 years, and it is really a bit shameful for such a person to claim to be the best actress of the same age in Asia.
Even Fan Binbing, who is in China, frowned in an interview with an American tabloid and said: "I don't know who is the best actress in Asia, but if you ask any Chinese audience this question, I believe they will never choose to be Korean." ”
Even the Hong Kong media, and many media in the mainland are sarcastically suspicious, and they are not optimistic about Ha Ji Won's role as Huang Rong this time.
The 83 version of Huang Rong's role as Weng Meiling is a classic of the times, almost irreplaceable, and in the subsequent remakes, whether it is Zhu Yin or Zhou Xun, Ariel Lin will inevitably be compared with it, and everyone except Weng Meiling Huang Rong is almost disliked by fans......
Whether it is derogatory or praised, the special series "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has aroused great interest among North American fans, although most people are holding their fingers, ready to wait until the day of release to scold and voice their idols, but "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" still received the enthusiastic attention expected by Li Xiaole.
The sunrise and morning light, the cloudless sky, the warm sunshine, the green trees and forests of the entire Emei Mountain area ripple with the autumn breeze, and the thousands of leaves seem to be flooded with pieces of golden waves, all the actors of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" have arrived, and the entire crew and staff of 859 people have stood on the square of the Song Dynasty District of the newly built film and television base, and the props team has spent more than an hour to arrange the scene.
This opening ceremony not only attracted the leaders of the Sichuan Provincial Tourism Bureau, but also TVB's Shao Yifu and Fang Yihua, the two respected Hong Kong film and television leaders, have personally watched it now, when they saw this film and television base completely this small part of the Song Dynasty complex, they couldn't help but be in a trance, as if they had returned to the stormy era more than 800 years ago, when romance and national crisis coexisted.
"Director Li, I have never seen such a filming scene, which is more than a hundred times better than our TVB scene." Shao Yifu, who was already a little inconvenient to move, couldn't help nodding excitedly, and Fang Yihua kept patting his back before he could finish this excited sentence.
"Sixth uncle, as long as the TVB crew is willing in the future, you can come here to film at any time." Li Xiaole assured the Hong Kong entertainment tycoon that this sentence made the TVB employees on the scene excited, looking at the beautiful scenery around them, where is the land of Hong Kong can be compared, and I can't help but be proud in my heart~~ If all the ancient costumes are filmed here in the future, this kind of meteorological scenery alone can make the work a lot more colorful~~
Before the start-up, because it was the first cooperation between hundreds of employees of TVB and Pirate TV, it was inevitable that it would be a little messy now, after clearing the scene and holding the isolation belt, art director Xu Zhen scolded TVB's prop masters in half-baked English for being too slow, and TVB's lighting team was also complaining that the American radio microphone of Pirate TV was blocking their lights.
"Daurson, look at your microphone, how do you shoot the shadow in the camera! This is not the kind of flat light in the United States, we use a high beam light here~~"
"Director Xu~~ You can't understand what you're saying, are you saying that there is a problem with the position of this stone lion, or is there a problem with its angle...... Please, can you pronounce the words correctly? ”
"Aren't you alalready!? It's going to turn on, what are you props team grinding about, hurry up and pick up the cigarette case over there! Did the Song Dynasty have cigarette cases!? ”
Because everyone has put too much effort into it, and has huge expectations, even the team is picky and demanding about every detail, and they don't look at each other very well, and the whole shooting scene is noisy, irritable, nervous, expectant, and chaotic emotions are intertwined, making everyone seem restless.
Everyone's hearts were very noisy and couldn't calm down, and at this time, I saw Zeng Zhiwei suddenly clapping his hands and holding the board above his head, but before he could shout, he saw Shao Yifu in a wheelchair trembling over under Fang Yihua's support, and said a few words to him, Zeng Zhiwei nodded respectfully and said, "It's good, sixth uncle." Then he handed the board to Shoyiv with both hands.
At this time, everyone looked at this side, and saw Shoyifu making a gesture to Fang Yihua, Fang Yihua sighed in embarrassment, stretched out his hand to slowly help him up, the old Shoyiv trembled his legs and wanted to stand up from the wheelchair, looking very painful......
The action of "Sixth Uncle" immediately attracted everyone's shouts, and many people, including Li Xiaole, immediately rushed over to support him, but Fang Yihua waved his white hand and motioned for everyone to stand back, and everyone watched the centenarian stand up with his thin hands......
Finally, under the gaze of more than 800 pairs of eyes at the scene, the stubborn old man finally stood up tremblingly, he tried his best to lift the board into the air with both hands, and shouted with all his strength in a thick and indistinct Shanghai accent:
"In 1973, TVB's first drama was played by me personally, and today I hope that this drama TVB will step out of a new era, and I will also play this board, I hope that all colleagues will do their best to prosper the future of our Hong Kong films~~"
Although these words sound a little weak, but from the mouth of the founder of Hong Kong film and television, who has passed the age of 100, there is a particularly heavy force, whether it is the employees of Pirate TV or TVB, they can't help but be very solemn, and they all look at the board held high in Shoyiv's hand.
