has dealt with Wang Xiaohu for more than ten years, and no one knows Wang Xiaohu's super sensitivity to the film and television industry better than Run Run Shaw. 【】

When the outside world questioned "Ip Man 2" last year, Run Run Shaw was a little worried, but he couldn't help but admonish, he knew that Wang Xiaohu would not do something that he was not sure of.

Sure enough, when MacLehose stepped down and Youde took office, the new and old Hong Kong governors both admired Wang Xiaohu and confirmed Shao Liu's expectations.

In the field of film and television industry, no one can make Wang Xiaohu suffer, unless the end of the world comes.

After a long time, Run Run Shaw gradually believed that Wang Xiaohu was proficient in divination and fortune-telling, after all, the iron-clad facts were in front of the sixth uncle, otherwise why didn't he see others build a global entertainment dynasty in ten years?

Whether others believe it or not, Run Run Shaw believes it.

Not only did Run Run Shaw see the trickiness in the teaser, but the older generation of filmmakers who came from Hong Kong in the 50s also saw the moral of the trailer.

For example, Mr. Yu Wing-kin, editor-in-chief of Cinema Fortnight and chairman of the Hong Kong Film Awards, spoke highly of the metaphors in the trailer: "Simple but extraordinary. ”

To put it simply, the trailer only relies on a few scenes and two lines, plus an uplifting background music, to bring out the atmosphere of Hong Kong's era.

What is extraordinary lies in the meaning behind those sets of scenes, and as the editor-in-chief of Southeast Asian film criticism publications, Yu Yongjian is looking forward to the second trailer.

"I hope to see that familiar Lion Rock in "Ip Man 2"!" Yu Yongjian prayed in his heart

"Ah Hu, the post-production of "Seraph" is done, do you want to release it first?" John Woo said.

Wang Xiaohu thought for a while, "Let's wait a minute, you go and prepare for the launch of "The True Color of Heroes". ”

Wu Yusen's face was happy, and he took the first budget plan of "The True Color of Heroes" from Wang Xiaohu, and happily went to the finance office to receive the start-up capital. With the eight million funds in the early stage, he can basically realize the ambition in his heart.

It is said that eight million is not much, compared to Jackie Chan, their movies often have a budget of tens of millions, which can be said to be very small, but John Woo's style is different from them, and he doesn't need too much budget to shoot big scenes, and everyone knows that although Chow Yun-fat and others are popular, the remuneration for the films within Concord will not exceed two million, and they can wait until the film is released to pay money.

This arrangement has the deep meaning of Wang Xiaohu, "Seraph" is an international action blockbuster, and it is the first film starring Donnie Yen, and Donnie Yen's popularity in the film and television industry is almost zero.

"Let "Ip Man 2" be released first, and make a familiar face in front of the audience, which is conducive to the box office results of "Seraph".

Wang Xiaohu told Donnie Yen like this, and Donnie Yen didn't have any opinions, after all, what the master said was reasonable, and he decided to follow the master's request to mix in the film and television industry

There are only a few scenes, a dozen black and white photos, and two dialogues of the teaser trailer of "Ip Man 2" that has been broadcast in Hong Kong for a whole week, which really made the public pay attention to this film again.

In this week, the public's attention to "Ip Man 2" has heated up little by little, and the focus of discussion is all about "whether Wang Xiaohu has beaten foreign devils" back and forth.

"Wang Xiaohu is a person who does what he says, he said that there is a plot to fight foreign devils, and there must be a fight against foreign devils!" Some citizens said in a very positive tone.

The reason why they are sure is that it is based on Wang Xiaohu's character in the past ten years, everything Wang Xiaohu has done in the past ten years since his debut is what he says, and he will not shake his decision because of external reasons.

It is this persistence that has led to today's Concord International and the king status of the No. 1 entertainment dynasty in Asia!

Opposing voices also have their own opinions.

"Now that the first round of negotiations between China and Britain has no results, Chinese mainland has issued another issue in September next year if Britain does not give an answer and directly unilaterally announces its decision, the British side is depressed, if Wang Xiaohu is a smart person, he will definitely not jump out at this time to find uncomfortable, if Wang Xiaohu does not know the current affairs, hum, it is very likely to become the punching bag of the British political axe!"

With the reform and opening up, the economic development of Chinese mainland has been renovated, and the foundation of a great country has begun to exert force, although the British political axe does not dare to take Chinese mainland, strangling a colonial film company is not as easy as playing?

No matter what the pros and cons say, there are noses and eyes, and even some media reporters went to Concord International to interview Wang Xiaohu.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaohu only replied: "Don't worry, I believe that when the second trailer is launched, everyone will understand whether there is a plot to fight foreign devils." ”

Hey, this answer is the same as the teaser, I just didn't answer at all, and a reporter rolled his eyes and said with disdain at the time: "Mr. Wang, your Tai Chi attainments are getting higher and more profound!" ”

Wang Xiaohu smiled and said nothing, anyway, now that the post-production of "Ip Man 2" is coming to an end, what remains is the final stage of finding goofs and dubbing, and the big work is done, followed by several rounds of publicity work, as long as the publicity expectation reaches its peak, the film can be launched.

At this time, not only media reporters and fans are looking forward to the second trailer coming out, but Hong Kong tycoons Li Ka-shing and Fok Yingdong are also staring at it.

To be honest, the two of them waited and watched because they wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob and see if they could take this opportunity to rush into the film and television industry at once.

But they just watched, and didn't take action immediately, everything has to wait for the release of the film, depending on the attitude of Hong Kong's British political axe before making a decision, after all, they are all representatives of Hong Kong's wealthy people, as old fritters in the business world, they will not act rashly.

The first round of trailers continued to be played, and at the end of June, the Hong Kong bureau chief of Xinhua News Agency [***] began to be active, either leading a team to visit the residents of the Kowloon Tong area today, or going to the Hong Kong airport in preparation tomorrow, and even inviting Hong Kong celebrities to private banquets.

Clear-sighted people can see that President Xu's high-profile and positive understanding of Hong Kong has a lot to do with the article published by Ming Pao not long ago, and the tough attitude of Chinese mainland has made the newly appointed Xinhua president have n many things to deal with.

In the face of President Hui's high-profile behavior, Sir Youde, who had also just taken charge of Hong Kong's colonial handsome, began to lose his breath and took President Hui out for negotiations, reiterating to President Hui the British political axe's commitment to Hong Kong and finding an arrangement acceptable to Britain, China and Hong Kong.

It seems that the negotiations between the two are not very optimistic, and the next day the newspaper broke the news that "Youde and President Xu's negotiations collapsed, and Youde returned to the UK overnight".

The Hong Kong newspapers expressed an astonishing unified view on the "return of Youde to Britain": The British are going to completely give up the struggle for sovereignty over Hong Kong!

"Lao Xu, the second round of trailers is smashed out!" Wang Xiaohu didn't expect things to come so suddenly, and when he was busy, he arranged for Xu Junlong to carry out the second round of publicity.

Although he is a reborn person, although he knows that Hong Kong will definitely return to the embrace of the motherland, it does not mean that he knows too much about the whole return to the motherland, after all, he was less than a year old when these things happened.

The Hong Kong people are fully aware that Hong Kong's future can only be in their own hands, so several groups of teams and organizations have appeared to petition and negotiate in Yanjing.

This time [***] is even busier, compared to the previous President Liang's inaction, President Xu can be described as an old-fashioned warm-hearted, today is either to help the team go through the procedures for visiting Beijing, or to lead a pair of people to continue to visit various communities in Hong Kong, busy and happy, and the performance is very positive.

In this environment, the second round of trailers for "Ip Man 2" surfaced.

It's still a few scenes and images from the teaser, but the difference is that this time characters and dialogue have been added.

Wang Xiaohu knows that there are up to three versions of a movie's trailer, namely the first version, the theatrical version, and the final perfect version.

The three versions are based on the interest in the film and the post-production finish, as well as the regional culture.

In the theatrical version, that is, in the trailer of the second version, Wang Xiaohu threw out the gimmick of Wing Chun vs. Hung Boxing, of course, it was only a taste, and through a few shocking martial arts actions, the public knew the origin of the original Zhao Yazhi in the first version: "It is so troublesome to open a martial arts gym in Hong Kong".

The richness of the picture and the growth of time add a lot of color to the trailer.

Ip Man played by Wang Xiaohu, Zhang Yongcheng played by Zhao Yazhi, Ye Zhun played by Wang Jiaen, Huang Liang played by Donnie Yen, Hong Zhennan played by Sammo Hung, etc., appeared one by one, and completely aroused everyone's interest in watching the movie through several tense pictures and dialogues.

The trailer of the theatrical version is condensed into one sentence: Wonderful play!

Although there are not many pictures, the tense and exciting atmosphere is really fascinating, especially when the muscular man Schwarzenegger appeared in the ring and died loudly, the citizens suddenly realized: after all, they still beat foreign devils!

"How can I say it, Wang Xiaohu is Wang Xiaohu, he said that if he fights foreign devils, he will fight foreign devils!" Supporters gleefully argued.

Fighting devils can be described as a topic that Chinese talk about, and now there are rumors that the British political axe has completely abandoned the Hong Kong negotiations, and foreigners are about to get out, "Ip Man 2" beating foreign devils is naturally amazing!

It is not an exaggeration to use "conforming to the will of the people" to describe supporting "Ip Man 2" to fight foreign devils.

Many opponents also defected, but they did not support Wang Xiaohu at this time, but purely sought spiritual release by watching movies.

Some people hid in a dark corner after seeing the trailer of the theatrical version, hehe sneered, after waiting for so long, it was finally a good time!
