782 Domestic public opinion is highly praised
"Boss, I, I already feel the madness and passion of Hong Kong movie fans. [No pop-up novel network]" Schwarzenegger said to Wang Xiaohu in a trembling voice.
Wang Xiaohu smiled: "Is there a feeling of being in the spotlight now?" ”
Schwarzenegger shook his head vigorously and said, "No, a very bad feeling, as if there are countless pairs of hateful eyes staring at me, I can feel their anger, boss, me, can I take a stand in advance?" ”
"Worried about them hitting you?" Wang Xiaohu looked at Schwarzenegger, and said in his heart that you are so strong, others just want to beat you, and you have to weigh it, as for being so timid?
Schwarzenegger nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I'm worried that something like this will happen." ”
Wang Xiaohu smiled, patted the big man on the shoulder and said: "Don't worry, Hong Kong is a society ruled by law, the more people hate you, it just means that your acting skills are excellent, and they can't tell whether this is a movie or reality." ”
"Caught the magic of the movie and can't extricate yourself?"
"Yes, when the movie ends, they will calm down, and there will be no bad incidents of beating." Wang Xiaohu comforted.
Although the boss made a guarantee, Schwarzenegger did not take it lightly and prayed in a low voice: "I hope God willing!" "If he knew that the Chinese audience would hate him so much, he said that he would not attend tonight's premiere.
Seeing Ip Man being knocked down in the boxing ring, and seeing the referee waving his hand next to him and counting "owo, three, four...... The audience was anxious, and like the actors on the screen, they shouted "Master Ye stand up." ”
The shouting shook the sky, as if he was about to overturn the roof of the New Century Studios, and Ip Man in the camera seemed to hear everyone's shouts, and finally stood up tremblingly, at that moment, the audience seemed to have won the battle, cheering enthusiastically and applauding vigorously!
Ip Man suddenly used Wing Chun, Hung Boxing, White Crane Boxing and other comprehensive boxing techniques to knock down the tornado in one go, at this time Ip Man was fully capable and had the opportunity to kill the British, and the scene of Hong Zhennan's tragic death was constantly being broadcast in front of him, and the brutality of the British at that time is still fresh in his memory, so he retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, like he killed Master Hong, and killed him.
But in the staggered cameras, he clearly saw Ip Man's inner struggle, he remembered what he said, "It is important to neutralize, not to fight", remembered that his original intention of practicing martial arts was not to "counter violence with violence", and remembered the "forgiveness and forgiveness" that was once rooted in Chinese culture, and remembered the "rule by virtue" and "rule by man" of Confucianism and Taoism......
With every punch Ip Man throws, the 3,500 spectators in the audience will shout "Good! I didn't even bother to listen to Zeng Zhiwei's relieving comments in the movie.
"This punch is for Master Hong, this punch is for you to insult Chinese martial arts, this punch is"
Ip Man won, and in the face of the foreigner reporter, he said, "I don't want to prove that Chinese martial arts are better than Western martial arts, or how powerful they are, I just want to say that our identities and statuses may be different, but the right to be respected is the same." There is a distinction between high and low status, but there should be no distinction between high and low personality. ”
Hearing these words, Jin Yong sighed: "Promoting the righteousness of martial arts and establishing the right path of martial arts, he used such a wise and humble way to protect the spirit of Chinese martial arts, the dignity of Chinese martial arts practitioners, and the era of foreigners raging - the respect that Chinese deserve." ”
"A good person is in neutralization, indisputable, a good person has no difference between high and low, there is no difference between high and low, here is not just a simple Lion Rock spirit!" Run Run Shaw said movingly.
The corners of Shen Zhong's eyes were moist, and he muttered to himself: "Ah asked for a good job." ”
After winning, Ip Man hurried to his home, crossed the overpass, and crossed the community, and when he met his wife and children, the background was fixed at the foot of the high Lion Rock
The opening point is the topic, and the end echoes each other from afar, and many viewers realized it later: "The spirit of Lion Rock." ”
"This is the most enjoyable movie I've ever watched in most of my life!" Li Ka-shing also applauded vigorously.
Bao Yugang nodded: "Well, how can it be a pleasure, it seems to drink a cold drink on a hot day, refreshing from the inside out!" ”
Huo Yingdong frowned, and after a long silence, he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go out and buy tickets for the next movie, and we'll watch it again!" ”
When the word "end" was written on the big screen, the audience was boiling, and the audience clapped their hands vigorously, shouted hello, and shouted loudly together:
"Ip Man!"
"Ip Man!"
"Ip Man!"
In the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, Wang Xiaohu took all the main creators of "Ip Man 2" to the stage, and Zhao Yazhi, Wang Jiaen, and Sammo Hung stood beside him.
Taking over the microphone from Zeng Zhiwei's hand, Wang Xiaohu waved his hand, and the theater immediately fell silent.
I heard Wang Xiaohu say: "Are you happy to watch? ”
"Cool!"
More than 3,000 spectators answered in unison, which was very deafening.
"It's cool!" Wang Xiaohu nodded and continued: "To be honest, this movie is the most tiring one I have ever filmed in my life, and I believe everyone knows that there are many topics surrounding "Ip Man 2", and there are also many emergencies at the beginning and end of filming. ”
The audience held their breath and recalled the experiences of "Ip Man 2" since its launch.
First of all, there are all kinds of doubts about beating foreigners in the script, and then it is the incident of Liang Ting's competition for the authenticity of Wing Chun, interspersed with various sensitive topics of Sino-British negotiations
All kinds of pressure fell on Wang Xiaohu, and it was not easy for people to persist until now.
It wasn't until the end of the film screening that the audience clearly felt Wang Xiaohu's sincerity, which was reflected in the movie as the intention of striving for perfection.
In reality, Ip Man may not be as brave, elegant, and chic as in the movie, but Wang Xiaohu uses his personality and demeanor to make up for all this.
"Ip Man 2" is not only a kung fu movie, but also a good reputation with rich connotation, full of respect and sincerity, and carefully polished and enriched.
After Wang Xiaohu finished speaking, the audience erupted in thunderous applause, which was applause for Wang Xiaohu's recognition and applause of gratitude.
At the same time, in the Great Hall of the People, representatives of China and Britain also watched the premiere of "Ip Man 2", relatively speaking, both sides have their own gains.
On the British side, I feel that the movie is very real, although there are some flaws, the few pictures basically position the environment and historical events at the time, especially the helpless shooting of the Hong Kong British political axe, in fact, it is true, but they don't agree with Wang Xiaohu's model of making Ip Man a hero.
Just like in the movie, after Ip Man won, some foreigners applauded Ip Man and won their respect, while some foreigners shook their heads and left, some agreed, some opposed, and it couldn't be more real.
If all the foreigners applauded, it would be really nonsense.
On the Chinese side, it is more appreciative of the rising national integrity in the middle and later parts of the film, especially Ip Man's speech after his victory, which speaks to the hearts of these central bosses.
But the words came out again, and the bigwigs were all heavy in their hearts after watching the movie, although Ip Man promised the British boxing champion, he could not change the fact that Hong Kong was colonized by the British.
"If you are backward, you will be beaten, and if you are weak, you will be bullied, is Wang Xiaohu suggesting that we should suppress the British in negotiations as soon as possible and recover Hong Kong?" In the small screening hall of Zhongnanhai, Deng Gong said with a smile.
Wang Xiaohu, who had just finished being interviewed, suddenly sneezed, sniffed hard, and hugged his wife and said, "It's the middle of the night, let's go back and rest." ”
"A clash of top masters, a joyful movie." A reporter from Ming Pao published a commentary article on "Ip Man 2".
"Eleven years ago, "Ip Man 1" started a sect and became famous all over the world! Eleven years later, the king of "Ip Man 2" has returned, swallowing mountains and rivers! The story of "Ip Man 2" is easy to understand, the context is clearly visible, the composition is fair, the shooting is atmospheric, the editing is capable, the rhythm is bright, and the overall style is in the same vein as "Ip Man 1". ”
"The whole film has found an excellent balance between literary drama and martial arts. In terms of literature and drama, this film skillfully writes Ip Man's frustration and embarrassment in a meticulous way, which is poignant. In terms of performance, Wang Xiaohu's family of three went into battle together, and the characters in the film were handled with flesh and blood, affection and righteousness, rich layers, precision, steady and steady, and shining. ”
"Ming Pao" almost smashed all the good words into "Ip Man 2", in Jin Yong's words, Liang Gen's newspaper in the movie is still filmed in our "Ming Pao" Weekly Building, anyway, this movie is a classic production, don't be stingy with words, try to "icing on the cake"!
Zhang Meijuan, editor-in-chief of "Hong Kong Women's Daily", commented: "I am a very emotional person, but I never thought that "Ip Man 2" could make me cry, and during the entire premiere process, I carefully sorted out a set of data: the attendance rate of New Century Cinema was 100%, including 5 laughs, 3 mid-range applause, 3 applause without interruption, and large-scale applause appeared twice during the round table battle, mainly concentrated in the ring battle at the end of the film. The number of times he cried was 4 times, 3 of which were painted by Wang Xiaohu's acting skills, and one time was for Master Hong. ”
"Although I have seen a lot of publicity for "Ip Man 2", I have never deliberately watched it, if I remember Ip Man because of the first movie, then what makes Ip Man have a profound and even indelible impact on my mind is the moving and shocking tonight. The film has really put a lot of effort into the word life, so that traces of labeling can be seen everywhere. For example, Ip Man said that "winning or losing is important, or eating with your family". For example, when Hong Zhennan was dying, he said, "I can endure it for the sake of life, but I can't insult Chinese martial arts", just to force Ip Man into the ring; And after defeating the British boxing champion, what Master Ye wants to do most is to go home"
The Hong Kong bureau of Xinhua News Agency reported with the headline "A legend of dignity or a pot of nationalist spirits"
"This legend of defending dignity, despite its fictional elements, is precious and moving, and those dignitys that should belong to you will make you feel vivid and accessible in an instant! However, if this struggle to defend dignity is nothing more than a pot of nationalist hot wine that stirs up popular anger, then the only aftertaste left is the ** in the mouth! ”
"One hundred and twenty minutes of film, every minute and second is unforgettable, and every scene shocks the Chinese people"
The mainland's "People's Liberation Army Daily" reported: "In Hong Kong in 1950, all Chinese were oppressed by foreigners, and that Huayang boxing match was completely an unfair match, and Ip Man, who did not bow to power, proved the indomitable and resolute of the Chinese to the foreigners present and the world with suppressed dissatisfaction; When Ip Man fell, hundreds of millions of Chinese people were subjected to the kind of 'Master Ye, stand up', when the tornado fell, the countdown voice in that familiar language overwhelmed the referee, resounding throughout the land of China, a Chinese unity and unanimity told the world that Chinese is strong; in the end, when Ip Man was interviewed by reporters, he did not use this best publicity opportunity to promote his martial arts gym, but told the world the humility of Chinese. ”
This time, Chinese mainland commented on "Ip Man 2" in a high-profile manner.
"News of Participating in Politics" even briefly described the plot, with such a paragraph as the end: "The Chinese nation has inherited the history of civilization for 5,000 years, and the history of the Chinese nation is fairly recorded in history, the prosperity of the Chinese nation, the bullying, the rise up of resistance, and the history of inheriting civilization Chinese. This is the spirit of the Chinese, a spirit that has penetrated the blood of every Chinese for thousands of years -- indomitable, resolute, united, and humble. ”
"The national spirit expressed in "Ip Man 2" has enhanced our national cohesion and centripetal force. It does not want to express that the Chinese nation is the best nation in the world, it just hopes that 'from this moment on, we all learn how to respect each other', it just wants to remind us that in the current situation of having a strong motherland, we should not forget that we had a period of humiliation, let alone that in those humiliating years, countless people who fought and even sacrificed to defend the dignity of the nation! Ip Man and Hong Zhennan are a microcosm of the people of that era. -- China Youth Daily.
The banner of nationalism is the key factor for Wang Xiaohu to open the mainland market, and it was precisely when "Ip Man" and "Jingwumen" were watched by Taizu that there was a situation in which Hong Kong films bloomed on a large scale in the mainland.
It can be said that at the time of the Sino-British negotiations, the release of "Ip Man 2" greatly excited the whole country.
"Film Fortnightly" did not publish a review article the next day, but under the auspices of Yu Yongjian, it began to collect all the data of "Ip Man" 1 and 2, planning to compare the two major versions and make a special issue together.
