255 The way out for Chinese action movies

Chen Xueqian's first impression of Wu Jing was his baby face, in fact, it was precisely because of this appearance that Wu Jing's role was subject to a lot of restrictions. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Chen Xueqian carefully recalled the movies that Wu Jing starred in in his memory, especially some classic action movies he starred in in the later period. However, Chen Xueqian found that Wu Jing's overall fighting style is obviously biased towards routines, even in his pinnacle masterpiece "Slaying the Wolf", although Wu Jing's fighting style is ruthless, it is very different from Chen Xueqian's film style this time.

However, kung fu movies are often not a question of whether they can be played, but whether they can be acted.

It's just that Chen Xueqian still has expectations for the other party's skills, after all, it is difficult to say that there is a limit to kung fu movies. For example, "Jingwu Hero", which is regarded as a classic by the Western film industry, has only reached a certain height in one genre.

It's hard for you to say which is more exciting, the battle in the back alley in "Slaying the Wolf" or the battle in front of Huo Yuanjia's tomb in "Jingwu Hero". The answer to this kind of question is different in the eyes of different people.

Therefore, Chen Xueqian is not confined to the prototype of the movie in his memory in his previous life, what he wants is the real, one-hit killing fighting style shown in that movie. Instead of copying the fighting moves of the previous life.

As for the negotiation with Wu Jing, there is actually nothing nutritious, for Wu Jing, it is far more important to have a character with a distinctive personality than others.

What Wu Jing wants is an opportunity, an opportunity for him to break through the bottleneck of his current career.

Chen Xueqian's request is simpler.

"Do you dare to really fight?" After talking to Wu Jing about the general outline of the script, Chen Xueqian asked a question that he valued the most.

"Really fighting?" Wu Jing was a little confused by Chen Xueqian's question.

"That's right, it's a real fight, a real fight, don't coerce, and the fighting style is also CQC, so as to be real, punch to the flesh."

When he first heard Chen Xueqian talk about martial arts, Wu Jing was still a little unimpressed, but when he talked about CQC, the expression on Wu Jing's face became very exciting.

Over the years, most of Wu Jing's action style has been routine-type, and this style has become more and more declining after the kung fu emperor Jet Li. In the past few years, there has been basically no market.

Nowadays, international and even domestic action movies have basically begun to develop to hand-to-hand combat and mixed martial arts.

is like Kung Fu Dan, who worked with Wu Jing not long ago, and the style of kung fu films he has directed in recent years has been constantly trying to integrate the mixed martial arts style.

In "Slaying the Wolf", this style can be said to be the first to see, and in Yip Weixin's upcoming third film "The Fuse", he has used mixed martial arts skills to the extreme in terms of ornamentation.

And Wu Jing has also glimpsed this popular trend in his cooperation, and in some recent films, he has also changed his fighting style, although it has not yet matured, but it has also begun to bear fruit.

This is what he didn't expect the Hollywood director in front of him, who looked a little young and excessive, to mention it to him, quite professional CQC.

However, Wu Jing was a little hesitant about Chen Xueqian's proposal, because he knew too little about Chen Xueqian, so it was difficult for him to judge how much Chen Xueqian knew for a while.

Just when Wu Jing hesitated, Chen Xueqian suddenly stood up and said, "Let's go, I'll take the two of you to visit our company's activity room." ”

It can be said that Chen Xueqian's sudden proposal made Wu Jing and the others a little unable to react for a while, they didn't understand how the movie was talked about well, why did they suddenly remember to visit the activity room.

However, in this negotiation, it was obvious that Chen Xueqian took the initiative, so although Wu Jing and the others had doubts in their hearts, they still stood up.

The activity room Chen Xueqian mentioned is in the annex building next to the studio. When Chen Xueqian led Wu Jing and the two into the already extremely empty room, Wu Jing's first reaction was that this was a practice room!

Just when Wu Jing's heart moved, Chen Xueqian, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stood still, took off a leather jacket on his body, and said, "Are you interested in communicating?" ”

Wu Jing couldn't help but be stunned again when he heard this, this was the first time he had been stunned after meeting Chen Xueqian. It's really this young director who is too unexpected.

Just watched Chen Xueqian take off his clothes and swing his fist quickly, accurately, and steadily when he moved his body. The heart that belonged to a martial artist in Wu Jing's heart finally couldn't help but move.

Eventually, he took off his clothes with a hearty smile and walked to the middle of the field.

The two went their separate ways, and then they began to confront each other on tacit understanding. When the two slowly approached, Wu Jing suddenly made a very fast long fist, which went straight to Chen Xueqian's face, but Chen Xueqian was a dodge, and between Wu Jing's moves and the old, there was a close-range surprise attack like a storm.

Wu Jing, who was good at routines for a while, was entangled by Chen Xueqian, and he had no chance to make a move.

When Wu Jing finally forced Chen Xueqian away with a bullet leg, he had already left a lot of traces of Chen Xueqian on his body. Fortunately, Chen Xueqian used the palm of his hand, otherwise this surprise attack would be enough for Wu Jing to drink a pot.

Looking at Chen Xueqian, who had reopened his distance and stared at him tightly, Wu Jing finally understood that he was too light on the enemy just now, and the other party's skills did not lose much to him at all. If he thought that this young director who always caught him off guard was a little ignorant, then at this time he didn't think so at all.

And Zhang Mengyi and Wu Jing's agent, who were standing on the side and watching the competition between the two, were already stupid at this time, they didn't expect Chen Xueqian to actually know kung fu, and even looked at the situation in the field, and faintly pressed the martial arts champion Wu Jing.

It was only at this time that they knew the purpose of Chen Xueqian bringing Wu Jing here, and Wu Jing's agent thought more, out of the professionalism of a professional, he was keenly aware that whether Wu Jing could get this role or not depended on his next performance.

When Chen Xueqian and Wu Jing slowly approached again, Chen Xueqian took the lead this time, but his attack was obviously short, and the empty door in front of his chest was never exposed between the swings of his arms.

And Wu Jing's fighting style is very mixed, but in the face of Chen Xueqian's close-knit melee style, he seems a little uncomfortable.

When he began to try to use a more wild fast-attack style, Chen Xueqian distanced himself from him again.

To Wu Jing's surprise, Chen Xueqian did not continue, but stretched out his hand and let Zhang Mengyi put on his coat.

"Mr. Wu, I think you should be able to see the fighting style I just used, and the action style of this movie is like that, I hope you will practice more during this time. As for the salary, I will give it to you at your current market price. As for the role, wait until the next meeting, we will depend on the situation. No problem, right? ”

This time, Wu Jing did not hesitate, and nodded directly. At this moment, he felt as if he had found a direction for the future, and perhaps after the filming of this movie, he could really figure out what to do next.

In fact, Chen Xueqian couldn't be clearer about this, Wu Jing in his previous life began to try to get out of his own action style after years of tempering in Hong Kong films.

It wasn't until later that he inadvertently electrocuted the military theme and opened another door for him. That is special fighting techniques, and the CQC that Chen Xueqian just used is a type of special fighting technique.

It can be said that Chen Xueqian's cooperation with him this time has helped him save at least five years of exploration time.

Sending away Wu Jing, who had regained his direction, Chen Xueqian fell into deep thought.

After interviewing Wu Jing just now, Chen Xueqian found that Wu Jing was not suitable to play the leading role in his movie. Because the other party has always lacked a sense of calmness like a mountain.

Maybe he can play another important role in his movie well, but he is not suitable to play the leading role.

But if Wu Jing can't do it, then who can he find to play?

And Chen Xueqian is reluctant to find the original protagonist of this movie to play, because then the Chinese elements of this film will be greatly weakened.

His main intention in making this film is nothing more than to warn those filmmakers in China, but at the same time, he still hopes to pull Chinese films.

It can be said that the box office performance of Chinese films abroad is really bad enough, and this phenomenon is not what Chen Xueqian is happy to see.

And in later generations, in the European and American markets, action movies, which are China's traditional strengths, have gradually been replaced by other countries, which Chen Xueqian can't bear.

In his previous life, Chen Xueqian could only complain about this, but by chance in this life, he happened to have the resources to change the situation, so he wanted to give the domestic film industry a shot in the arm through his own way. (To be continued.) )
