Chapter 051 The Grandmaster was released

"Oh, I don't know what the play is?" Hong Jinbao asked curiously, "What do you think of me?" ”

"Don't worry, Brother Hong."

Gu Weiqi thought about it and said: "After a while, after my movie is released in the United States, I will personally tailor a popular action blockbuster for the two of us." When the time comes, you will be satisfied, now I want to borrow you Yuan Biao and Yuan Hao, I don't know if Brother Hong is willing to cut his love? ”

"Haha, brother, you have said it, brother, what else do I have to say? When you need them, just say it, and I'm not going to stop them. By the way, I heard that you are very good at writing scripts, I wonder if my brother can help my brother write one? ”

"No problem." Gu Weiqi said briskly: "It's just a script, it's just a trivial matter for my brother." You wait, I'll give you the script in two days. ”

Hong Jinbao patted Gu Weiqi's shoulder and said with a smile: "Then brother, thank you first." Okay, don't delay you to greet the guests, brother went in first. ”

"Okay." Gu Weiqi nodded and continued to greet the guests who came to cheer.

At this time, Chen Huixian, Anita Mui and Ye Qianwen also came together, and came to Gu Weiqi's side and said together: "Boss, congratulations on the release of the new film, I hope it will be a big hit at the box office." ”

"I lend you good words." Gu Weiqi asked with a smile: "How is your album made?" ”

Anita Mui replied: "Mine has already begun to be released, and Ah Wen and Ah Xian's are still in production." ”

"Well, yes, you guys should concentrate on singing now."

Gu Weiqi advised: "If you have time, you can also go to the training class to learn acting, and go to Phoenix TV to play a cameo role." When you have a foundation in acting, I will tailor a few movies for you. You have to work hard and don't let me down. I'm very optimistic about you. ”

The three girls were overjoyed and said, "Can we really act?" ”

"Of course." Gu Weiqi nodded and said with a smile: "Come in, the movie will start in a while." ”

The three girls walked into the theater in a happy mood, and the 3,000-seat movie theater was almost full, with an attendance rate of almost 90 percent, including many film critics and journalists. Gu Weiqi, Yang Xuanpan, Huang Yuansheng and Liu Zhenwei and the main creative staff sat in the back row to watch. But what they watch is not the movie, but the audience's reaction.

The time to truly test them had come, and Gu Weiqi sat there as steady as Mount Tai. However, Liu Zhenwei and others were a little uneasy in their hearts. Especially Yang Xuanpan is even more stressed, after all, she now has the title of the highest-paid actress in China on her head, and if the audience is not satisfied, it will undoubtedly cause a lot of waves for her to appear on the big screen.

Suddenly, the strong war drums and the desolate horn sounded, accompanied by the flavorful sound of gongs and drums, which made the audience feel refreshed. Then the lights of the whole audience dimmed. The red curtain slowly opened to both sides, and the big screen illuminated by several beams of strong light became the focus of people's attention.

In the midst of the surging wind, a golden dragon roared out and forced people to come. Then the "Oriental Hollywood International Film Company" jumped out of the flames, and then the list of the film's main creators appeared one by one in the form of subtitles, accompanied by the blood-boiling opening song "Men should be self-reliant" The song sounded. Then there are the producers, producers, screenwriters, directors, action directors, and directors of photography...... All in all, a large list of positions are Gu Weiqi's name.

saw that the producer, director, martial arts instructor, soundtrack, leading actor, etc. are all Gu Weiqi's names. Many film critics and reporters at the scene couldn't help but whisper to themselves. It is important to know that there are very few generalist film talents in Xiangjiang who can take on so many positions at the same time, or it is more appropriate to call them all-rounders.

At the beginning of the plot, it is the scene of the heroine practicing her skills, and looking at Yang Xuanpan's heroic Tang costume, it immediately gives people a stunning feeling. Many male viewers were in high spirits and immediately became interested, and those who were whispering also immediately closed their mouths and concentrated on watching the movie. In order to conform to the trend of the times, Gu Weiqi set the protagonist as a native of Xiangjiang.

And the scene of snow in the original book was also changed by him to the weather without snow. After all, I was in a hurry to shoot at the time, and it was impossible to shoot in a place with snow. Although this inevitably discounts the visual vision of the camera, judging from the feedback of the audience, it seems to be quite good.

Especially when Gu Weiqi appeared, many female viewers felt that their eyes lit up, because he was very photogenic and his appearance was relatively handsome, so everyone began to look forward to the next plot.

In fact, the next plot did not disappoint the audience, and as the camera switched, a series of battles were staged one after another. Gu Weiqi's crisp and neat skills, the heroine's incredible kung fu display, the audience in front of the screen from time to time sighed and exclaimed. Of particular note are several of the backdrop music.

One of them is 97 The King of Fighters, but this music was changed by Gu Weiqi to "Who is competing", and the atmospheric-sounding "Butterfly Dance World" was also changed by him to "A Generation of Grandmasters". These two pieces of music are the backdrop music and interlude of the film, which absolutely complement each other. Especially the theme song of Butterfly Dance Tianya, the tune is atmospheric, and it is definitely not much better than being a man to be self-reliant. It's a masterpiece.

Among them, the heroine walked on the water, and when she was separated from the male protagonist, Gu Weiqi was paired with the episode of "Thousand Thousand Que Songs". Originally, he planned to match this section with "kiss goodbye", but later imagined that it was still accompanied by the "Thousand Thousand Que Song" sung by Chen Huixian.

The Taiwan version is accompanied by the "Sunset Song" sung by Anita Mui, and the current version of Gu Weiqi is accompanied by the Japanese version of "Sunset Song" sung by himself. As for the European and American versions, it is accompanied by the English version of "kiss goodbye", which can be described as painstaking.

The 90-minute movie quickly came to an end, the protagonist was seriously injured in the bloody battle of Changxiang, and Zhang Tong played by Zheng Wenya took the protagonist to get into the car, and the picture was frozen, and the song "Dream Chaser" sounded, and the audience knew that the movie was over.

However, after watching it, the audience still has a feeling of unfinished. Since the sudden death of kung fu superstar Li Xiaolong, it has been a long time since Xiangjiang has been able to make such an exciting kung fu movie. And this is not a simple kung fu movie, after Gu Weiqi modified it with professional screenwriters, the plot is much fuller than the original book.

The whole movie can be said to have ups and downs in the plot, with distinct characters and great tension. Especially the fighting part, it is extremely intense and shocking! It's definitely a premium action movie.

Gu Weiqi was the first to stand up, and the other main creators also left their seats. As they stood in a line at the front desk, several lights fell overhead, illuminating their location. The audience didn't react at first, many of the audience were still stuck in the wonderful plot, and more people didn't relax for a while because the ending song was good.

"Wouldn't it? What's going on? Gu Weiqi secretly sweated in his heart, waiting for the moment when the life and death of the film were decided, why didn't the audience react?

It took a while until the ending song really ended. The audience finally burst into thunderous applause. Gu Weiqi breathed a long sigh of relief, although he already thought that this film was good, but if the audience didn't buy it, then there was nothing he could do.

"Wonderful, this is a real action movie, compared to those martial arts movies full of swords, I don't know how many times better!"

"It's no exaggeration to say that this is the best movie I've seen this year. No wonder media reports say that this film is a sincere and excellent work, and it is! ”

"The actor's kung fu is really powerful, and it looks really exciting. But I haven't seen it yet, so I'll have to buy a ticket to see it later! ”

"If the overall level of Xiangjiang films is as good as the production of Oriental Hollywood International Pictures, it will definitely be able to compete with Hollywood in the future!"

“……”

Liu Zhenwei whispered to Gu Weiqi: "Yes, it seems that the audience is very satisfied. There shouldn't be any surprises. ”

Gu Weiqi nodded and said with a smile: "Yes." Now I can finally rest assured. ”

At this time, reporters gathered around, and Gu Weiqi and the main creators stood together and began to be interviewed by reporters.

"Gu Shao, how much box office do you expect the film to get after it is released?"

"Of course, the more at the box office, the better." Gu Weiqi said with a smile like a spring breeze.

In the face of reporters' questions, he did not say anything arrogant. Although according to the current momentum, the final box office of this film will definitely not be too low. However, he was not overly arrogant, and this answer can be said to be leaky. In fact, today's reporters are still very simple compared to journalists in the 21st century, and this scene is simply too easy for him to deal with.

The reporter was unwilling, and then asked: "The highest-grossing film this year is the 21.1 million Hong Kong dollars created by 'Lifting Little Hands', are you confident that you will break the box office record of this film and reach a new high?" ”

"Mr. reporter, you should know that 'Lifting and Letting Go of Little Hands' was originally produced by our Donglai Company. It doesn't matter to me if I break the box office record or not. ”

Gu Weiqi still replied lightly: "Actually, in my opinion, as long as this movie can make money, it doesn't matter how much." The main thing is that the audience is satisfied. ”

The reporters saw that his tone was quite tight, so they had to shift the target.

"Miss Yang, how do you feel about becoming the highest-paid actress in China?"

"Of course I'm very happy, I'm very grateful to Director Gu for his vigorous cultivation, if he hadn't invited me to star in this film, I wouldn't have won this title. But to be honest, this title is quite stressful for me. Fortunately, the director's temper was quite good during filming, and the crew took good care of me. ”

"Director Liu, I heard that you are filming a new play, can you reveal what kind of film it is?"

"Hehe, keep it secret for the time being, and I'll let you know when it's time to officially turn on."
