715 Today, ten years later, our family is filming "Ip Man 2"
In fact, there is not much difference between Taiwan's ban and not blocking Wang Xiaohu, even if it is officially blocked, the Taiwan theater chain represented by the Bamboo Union Gang will also think of arranging the release of Concord International's films. γReading.comγ
In particular, in recent years, Wang Xiaohu said that the filming of "Shaolin Temple" and "Mulan" are all propaganda of Chinese orthodox culture, and the Taiwan side has also turned a blind eye; to put it bluntly, Taiwan's political axe has always believed that he is the best inheritor of Chinese civilization, and Wang Xiaohu's use of the banner of propagating Chinese culture can be regarded as secretly in line with the mentality of some people in the Taiwan authorities.
Coupled with Liao Gong's open letter, Taiwan's political axe simply sent a favor to unseal the order.
Wang Xiaohu didn't expect that he just scratched Liao Gong back then, and people really took this matter to heart, and helped him solve the problem by the way.
"Xiao Wang, what movie are you going to make next?"
Hearing Liao Gong's question, Wang Xiaohu hurriedly sighed and said: "I haven't thought about it yet, I've been busy filming for the past few years, and I feel a little tired, and I want to be lazy and take a break." β
"Huh? I just encouraged you to work hard, but you kid wants to be lazy. Liao Gong said angrily: "You are still young, you should take the lead and set an example." β
Wang Xiaohu smiled and said: "If I keep shooting, the gap with everyone will get bigger and bigger, it's better to stop a little and give everyone some time and space to catch up, besides, my role model has been enough over the years, and there is really no point in shooting again." β
According to Liao Gong's understanding, Wang Xiaohu is not the kind of person who is afraid of the heavy, and no matter what movie he makes, he will have a clear goal, just like "Myth" is to pry open the door to the commercially developed United States, "Shaolin Temple" once shocked neighboring countries and said, "Mulan" Cannes triumphant.
Wang Xiaohu uses one work after another to show China's beautiful mountains and rivers like the world, and to promote Chinese traditional culture to the fullest.
If Wang Xiaohu continues to climb, the people at the foot of the mountain will not want to catch up, and if it continues for a long time, the role model will be counterproductive, and it is bound to hit a group of motivated filmmakers with a positive surname.
"Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too fast, and it's easy to get out of touch with everyone." Liao Gong nodded, he admitted that he was still in a hurry.
"What are you going to do next?" Liao Gong asked again.
"Next, cultivate a group of Hong Kong directors, bring up a few of the little apprentices I accepted back then, and complete the task just entrusted by the chief by the way." Wang Xiaohu said with a soft smile.
"Is that the mission to save Chinese martial arts?" Liao Gong's squinted eyes were very bright.
Wang Xiaohu nodded undeniably and said, "Yes, it's a huge project, and I have to rely on Liao Gong's help when the time comes." β
"It's incumbent on me to help, I'll find a few old friends and let them take the lead." Liao Gong said with emotion: "Hey, in fact, sometimes it's sad to think about, after the Cultural Revolution, all kinds of cultural heritage in the country have been looted, and if you don't save it, I'm afraid the consequences will be unimaginable, but there is no specific person in the country to take the lead, and I want you to propose, hey, it's really"
"Don't think too much about Liao Gong, there are some things that we can't hope to happen, as long as you do what you can do well, it's enough to be worthy of your conscience." Wang Xiaohu was busy persuading Liao Gong.
"Xiao Wang, don't forget to help domestic film and TV workers."
"Liao Gong may not know yet, Mr. Wang just sent charcoal to the crew of "Journey to the West" and is helping." Minister Huang said.
"That's good, that's good." After Liao Gong finished speaking, he closed his eyes.
After a while, the doctor came to check the ward, and Wang Xiaohu, Zhao Gang, and Minister Huang said goodbye.
When he went back, Zhao Gang said: "The doctor said that if Liao Gong recuperates well, he will have a year to live." β
Wang Xiaohu looked at the scenery outside the car and did not speak, and the atmosphere in the car was a little silent.
After a long time, Minister Huang suddenly said, "Mr. Wang, there is something I want to discuss with you. β
"Please."
"Well, here's the thing, do you think you can finish filming "Earthshattering" in a spare time?"
Wang Xiaohu snorted coldly, "Less than six years have passed since the Tangshan earthquake, if "Earth-shattering" is filmed, it is tantamount to sprinkling salt on the hearts of millions of Tangshan people, which is too cruel, with all due respect, I will not do this film in recent years."
"Oh, I didn't say it." Minister Huang smacked his lips.
In the next few days, Wang Xiaohu, Lin Qingxia, Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow and others went to Yu County, Henan Province, to attend China's first "Mulan Culture and Art Festival".
At the opening ceremony, Lin Qingxia took the lead in reading "Mulan Ci", which attracted live broadcast by CCTV and Henan TV, and the scene was extremely sensational.
That night, the opening scene of the Mulan Culture and Art Festival appeared on the "News Network", which was the second time that "Mulan" won the Palme d'Or and the Best Actress Award at the Cannes Film Festival on the "News Network", which shows that China attaches great importance to "Mulan".
After participating in the cultural festival, Wang Xiaohu did not stay in China for a long time, but led the team to return to Hong Kong quickly.
"Three things!" Wang Xiaohu returned to Hong Kong and immediately convened a meeting of the company's core members.
"The first thing is to make every effort to complete the post-production of "Shooting the Condor" within October, and I have already discussed with the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Radio, Film and Television when I went to Yanjing this time, and "Shooting the Condor" will be broadcast on the mainland at the end of October."
"The second thing is that you are planning a promotional film about the changes of Hong Kong films for the promotion of the first Hong Kong Film Awards to be held at the end of the year, and I want the whole of Asia to know about the opening of the Hong Kong Film Awards, which is the focus of work in the second half of the year."
"The third thing is to contact various film companies, buy their high-quality old movies, and prepare for the creation plan of the Phoenix TV movie channel."
After Wang Xiaohu released the three things, Concord International Headquarters was immediately busy, and these three things are the focus of the company's work in the second half of the year, which shows Wang Xiaohu's determination to fully support the rapid development of Hong Kong films.
In fact, Wang Xiaohu has a fourth thing to be busy with, but this matter has nothing to do with the movie, so he called Huang Chunliang directly.
"Uncle Wong, take the time to come back, I want to let Hong Kong Wing Chun and mainland Wing Chun have an exchange activity." Wang Xiaohu immediately told Huang Chunliang about his plan to participate in the mainland's salvation of the country.
Huang Chunliang listened for a long time before he replied: "Okay." β
"In addition, I still want to start filming "Ip Man 2" on the tenth anniversary of my ancestor's death, and I have to ask the teachers and uncles of Wing Chun Gate to help." Wang Xiaohu said.
"Hey, I can't imagine that Master has left us for ten years, and time flies so fast." Huang Chunliang sighed on the phone, "I will contact Liang Ting and them, you can rest assured." β
It's been ten years, and it's been almost eleven years since Wang Xiaohu was reborn in this time and space.
God gave Wang Xiaohu eleven years to create a huge film kingdom like Concorde and International, and let him realize all his wishes in his previous life in eleven years, it cannot but be said that he is quite lucky.
The plan to rescue, organize, and co-opt Chinese martial arts was very difficult for Wang Xiaohu, and the best way he could think of was to organize an exchange event between Hong Kong and mainland Wing Chun to kick off the whole plan.
After all, Wang Xiaohu as a disciple of Wing Chun has made great contributions to the promotion and development of Wing Chun culture in the past ten years, not only filmed "Ip Man" ten years ago, but also funded Wong Chun Leung and other Wing Chun warriors to open martial arts gyms abroad.
I believe that with the best example of Wing Chun in front of the martial artists in China, it will be easier for them to cooperate.
"Ah Hu, are you going to shoot "Ip Man 2"?" Zhao Yazhi asked.
Wang Xiaohu nodded and said, "Yes, so, I also want to implore the lady to come back to play Zhang Yongcheng." β
"But the stars have grown up, who will play Ye Zhun?" Zhao Yazhi did not object, as long as it was for her husband's career, she was very supportive and cooperative.
"Xingzi can't count on it." Wang Xiaohu scratched his head and caught a glimpse of his son sweating profusely coming out of the practice room, a pair of tender arms full of red and swollen arms, compared to the wooden stake.
"Ah Zhi, why don't we perform on the same stage as our family, our family should be very suitable to play the ancestor family, right?"
Zhao Yazhi laughed when she heard this, "It's good, I'm worried that my son's performance is not as good as Xingzai's, and I smashed the gold-lettered signboard of "Ip Man". β
"It's fine. You see that our son is about the same size as Xingzi when he was 10 years old, not to mention that Xingzi and they have all grown up, and they just play Huang Shibo. Wang Xiaohu rubbed his nose and felt that this method was very good.
In his previous life, he had a lot of opinions about Huang Xiaoming and Shi Xiaolong's participation in "Ip Man 2", Huang Xiaoming is very two, and Shi Xiaolong is even more two, which simply subverts the image of Shi Xiaolong in the minds of fans, who would have thought that after more than ten years, Shi Xiaolong would become so fat and so unwelcome.
So while he and his wife were still young, while Xingzi and they had grown up, and taking advantage of the 10th anniversary of the death of his ancestor Ip Man, he simply filmed "Ip Man 2", which happened to cooperate with this rescue plan, killing three birds with one stone.
"Then it's decided, I'll go rewrite the script first." Wang Xiaohu patted his buttocks, rushed into the study full of energy, and went to rewrite the script of "Ip Man 2" written ten years ago, because the script of "Ip Man 2" is very, very unreasonable, especially the part that beats foreigners in the second half, if it is not modified, it will really smash the signboard of the first part, Wang Xiaohu doesn't want to make a mess of a classic series.
"Hey, it's a headache, it's a headache!"
