The fact is indeed as Liu Weiqiang said, although "The True Color of Heroes" completely created a "gangster" hero film, but the works that follow the trend are all small productions. Whether it is word-of-mouth or box office, it is not outstanding. At best, it just followed "The True Color of Heroes" to fool some audiences.

"The script hasn't been written yet, but I have an idea! Wang Zuxian: How are you contacted? ”

"I got in touch, but Shaw Brothers was enough to support her. I heard that I signed a movie by Tsui Hark, and the actor is Xu Guanjie. ”

Although Liu Weiqiang doesn't know what Tsui Hark's new film is, the cast has been exposed. The leading actor, Xu Guanjie with first-class box office appeal! And Wang Zuxian was able to play the female number one when he just set foot in the Hong Kong film industry. It seems that Shaw Brothers is very optimistic about her prospects.

As soon as Liu Weiqiang said this, Lu Yan already laughed. I have to say that Wang Zuxian's starting point is incomparable. And Tsui Hark's new movie, he finally guessed it.

"The Emperor of Part-time Work", this movie has a small cost investment, and the box office is okay. The main reason is because of Xu Guanjie's box office call. As for Wang Zuxian, not many people pay attention to this beautiful 'vase'.

"Hey!" Liu Weiqiang shouted, and then smiled bitterly: "Can you not suddenly look like you are thinking like a silver swing......

"Qiang Zai, I'm thinking about what Tsui Hark's new film will be filming." When Lu Yan heard this, he immediately looked at Liu Weiqiang speechlessly and said, "You are becoming more and more good at teasing me!" Isn't it? Help me make an appointment with her, and I'll talk to her then. ”

"How about you reveal the theme of the new film? We're so prepared. Cheng Xiaodong couldn't hide his smile, and finally returned to the topic and asked.

"Brother Xiaodong, you have to do your best in this movie. It's a costume film, a romantic ghost movie......"

Lu Yan replied very seriously, but it made several people present speechless. Especially Cheng Xiaodong, it turned out that he was still listening carefully. As soon as I heard that it was a costume film, my whole face changed.

"Yan Zai, you're not mistaken, right? There are so many costume films on TV, and the audience is tired of watching them. You still want to make costume movies, it's like looking for death! Cheng Xiaodong, who has always been in TVB, said very directly.

Regarding the current situation of Hong Kong films, Lu Yan certainly understands. But it is precisely because of this that he wants to break this status quo and say: "This is not a question of costume or fashion distinction, but a matter of personal mentality." People nowadays need something of romantic emotion, and I think this movie is okay! ”

The words once again made several people present look at each other. They know Lu Yan to some extent, and this little boss is a tendon. Nothing that has been decided can be changed. However, in the shooting situation, it is different from other directors. At least he can listen to many of everyone's opinions, and he is not a hegemonic director.

Since Lu Yan made a decision, everyone didn't say anything more. After all, "The True Color of Heroes" is in front, maybe the new film he said is Zhuyu behind! It is precisely because of this mentality that everyone will support without hesitation.

Fortunately, if you want to shoot costume films, it will be a piece of cake for Cheng Xiaodong. At that time, I was a martial arts instructor for many TV dramas in TVB, and I was able to be very accurate in many details and mastery of this aspect.

Dongcheng Imaging has begun to talk about the production of the second movie, but the outside world is still crazy about "The True Color of Heroes". Especially after Lu Yan led several leading actors to attend TVB's program, everyone became even more curious about this director.

As Lu Yan himself said, he learned Zhang Che's strong depiction of male friendship, borrowed the concept of martial arts shooting techniques, and added martial arts moves to the shootout, like the fight scenes of martial arts films in the 70s, such as Xiao Ma Ge's slow motion flying and rolling shots; Dozens of minions are solved in Fenglin Pavilion in a chic manner, all of which have the shadow of Zhang Che or Chu Yuan-style martial arts films.

The friendship, brotherhood and father-son relationship depicted in "The True Color of Heroes" all revolve around the emotional development of the male surname, compared to the only female character (Zhu Baoyi) in the movie, who is just a vase character, and also has the soul of Zhang Che's movie.

In addition, the gangster background in the film is a reference to Scorsese's earlier films, and the gangster characters' fateful torments and frustrations with fate are even more similar, and Song Zihao wakes up from a dream at the beginning, sits up straight, sweating profusely, similar to the opening plot of "Poor Streets", and the characters' situation of not being able to stay out of the situation is even more similar. Of course, Lu Yan also evolved the characters in the film into the samurai feeling of his favorite Kurosawa films, so that the protagonist suffered the helplessness and pain of life step by step.

Lu Yan's filmmaking techniques, such as the editing and slow-motion performance of the film, have become a kind of signature in their entirety. He openly admitted in the show that he was deeply influenced by Paikin Pa, such as the heavy use of slow motion to shoot action scenes, and the multi-angle alternating camera positions of fight scenes, all of which are Paikin Pakava-style. They are accustomed to inserting a picture in two coherent slow motions that is not directly related but to show details, prolonging the time of the action scenes and amplifying the mood. Therefore, his films must be shot with multiple cameras, and some of them must be placed on moving tracks. And the styling of the characters, such as the striking and cold trench coat, comes from Mayville's Alain? Delong, who makes the killer character have the qualities of a jungle beast.

Interestingly, Paijinpa and Mayville, two of the most representative masters of violent aesthetics in Western action films in the 70s, have a wild and passionate work and a cold and solemn style, and Lu Yan is the only director who can combine the characteristics of these two masters. Maybe this sentence is a bit excessive, but at least I can see the potential of this rookie director from this "True Colors of Heroes".

"The True Color of Heroes" has something in common with "Kill Bill" in a sense, but Quentin is more of a smug showmanship, and Lu Yan is a catharsis of life after death, and the effect is naturally not the same. (Everyone thinks that "Kill Bill" is a movie of this period, and I can't find any comparison......)

Now "The True Color of Heroes" has won the box office and has exceeded 25 million. And I'm more interested in what exactly is the next film for this newcomer director! Many of my peers are just as curious. ”

If the reviews of "True Colors" by famous film critics define it as a good film, then this article published by Film Fortnight simply blames it as a classic. And for Lu Yan's praise, it is really high!

As the only professional film magazine in Hong Kong at this time, the important surname of "Film Fortnightly" in Hong Kong can be imagined. Rao is the Hong Kong Film Awards Ceremony, which was also founded by the Film Fortnightly.

Because of this, the appearance of this article caused an uproar in the Hong Kong film industry. And the cover of this issue of "Film Fortnightly" is a promotional poster of "The True Color of Heroes".

Just relying on a movie, Lu Yan actually conquered this group of academics with quite high taste?

Could it be that there really been a phenomenal genius director in Hong Kong?

And the storm caused by "Film Fortnightly" did not arouse Lu Yan's waves at all. At this time, he was studying the script at home, and he was repeatedly watching the movies of his predecessors.

Because, the second production of Dongcheng Imaging will officially start soon!
