Chapter 698: The sword goes sideways

said that just when Chen Xiaotang felt that he had reached a dead end again, suddenly, a game appeared in his mind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The male protagonist of the game, dressed in a white coat and hood, comes and goes without a trace, has superb killing skills, specializes in assassinating the brutal ruling class, and eradicating evil has also become the "Assassin's Creed" that players abide by, working hard to save innocent people.

Yes, this game is called Assassin's Creed!

Chen Xiaotang's eyes suddenly brightened.

In his previous life, he loved this game very much, especially "Assassin's Creed" continues all the advantages of the "Prince of Persia" series, the protagonist is not only an agile martial arts master, but also good at various assassination techniques, plus the game stage presents the style of medieval European towns, which allows players to experience the courage of being an assassin in white. In addition to assassination missions, players must also gather intel on the streets, or accept mission commissions, and the game graphics create a sense of nostalgia for medieval Europe, as well as the bustling crowd of voices, really have good visual effects.

It's a pity that such an excellent game has not been adapted into a movie for a long time, but India's Bollywood has copied a modern version of the action movie "The Ultimate Weapon" according to the character modeling of this game, almost everything in Assassin's Creed it has, Indian Ah San transformed into a white-clothed assassin, the male protagonist looks a little uncomfortable with the audience, but the female protagonist is very eye-catching, but the action scenes are OK. In short, after watching this play, the audience who likes this game feels that the sky is thundering and thunderbolting, which is really uncalm, and it hurts to watch.

Now, if you write the story of this game yourself and make it into a movie in advance, if the movie is a hit, why not make it into a game in turn?!

Chen Xiaotang was excited by his peculiar idea.

Next, Chen Xiaotang further considered from a personal point of view, what angle should he take in this play, who should direct it, and what is the shooting form, is it romanticism, realism, or bloodiness and thunderism?

Chen Xiaotang himself prefers movies with content, as for the subject matter, it can be said that it is super wide, business, literature, martial arts, romance, pure entertainment films, he also likes to watch pure entertainment films, in fact, there is also content,. In fact, as long as there is a shot to watch in a film, it will be valuable to him.

For foreign films, directors, and production companies, I can't remember their names clearly, so I don't have any impression. Therefore, for foreign films, Chen Xiaotang also knows some particularly famous ones, and some special ones.

For example, Stallone's "First Blood" is a good film, especially at the end. The male protagonist is a guerrilla veteran of the Vietnam War, and after returning to the United States, he is repressed at every turn, and is finally forced to go up the mountain to engage in sabotage. In the end, he alone caused chaos in the town. Breaking into the police station, he cried and vented to his former commander, telling him how he felt. Then, when it was dawn, he calmly put on his handcuffs and walked out of the police station with a disdainful expression on his face.

Compared to "Lights Out", "First Blood" is too successful. However, the early part of "Lights Out" is relatively compact and powerful. Chen Xiaotang did not see "Lights Out" as a military academy defense battle, he discussed it as a conflict between the world of adults and the ideals of young people. Generally speaking, when ideals and reality conflict, especially between adults and young people, it is more likely that young people compromise, because the pivot of society is ultimately in the hands of adults.

Young people want to strive for it, and they are also promising, like love, study, and future...... There is no one who "fights for the sake of fighting", because this kind of person is the one who does not know what he has won for. It's as if wars don't start for the sake of "fighting wars for the sake of wars." At the end of the "lights out", people felt that the ideals of the Diaobaoshan Military School had been adhered to for many days had become a boring action.

Chinese martial arts films and novels. It is the most unique subject in the world. It would be a shame if we couldn't develop it into the same momentum as an American Western.

In Chen Xiaotang's view, there are two very comparable martial arts films in Hong Kong recently, one is "Famous Sword" starring Zheng Shaoqiu, and the other is "Decisive Battle" starring Liu Songren.

"Famous Sword" focuses on two scenes: a rescue and a life-and-death duel. These two battles are fortunately fast-paced, with no superfluous dialogues and actions, as well as the editing of Qijia, among all the movies Chen Xiaotang has seen, the editing of these two scenes of "Famous Sword" is definitely the first. Except for these two scenes, "Famous Sword" has nothing else to watch.

Chen Xiaotang believes that "Decisive Battle" and "Famous Sword" are the representatives of current martial arts films. The martial arts coach is the same person for two films, but "The Decisive Battle" has a scene to watch, and it is also fresher than "Famous Sword", and the editing of "The Decisive Battle" is slightly inferior to "Famous Sword", but the shooting skills are not inferior to "Famous Sword".

Directors in Taiwan and Hong Kong can also study their styles: Zhang Che made martial arts films and brought out six generations of martial arts stars. However, in Chen Xiaotang's opinion, his films are all about the same - very stable, but the personality of the characters is not obvious enough, the early films are better than now, most of them are very heroic, if he was asked to shoot the "Loyal Yang Family General" in his previous life, he would definitely be super shocked.

Hu Jinquan's film has beautiful pictures and enough rhythm, but it is not good enough. Sometimes it's annoying. His films are faster than most of his contemporaries. Chen Xiaotang likes his masterpiece "The Drunken Man", which is a very special expression.

Li Hanxiang is also a director with a fixed form, but he has made a great self-breakthrough in "Wu Song".

Although the above three directors shoot martial arts films, they take different routes, Zhang Che is a bloody person, he likes to sprinkle dog blood in the play, and often the male protagonist is dressed in white, with rotten intestines and blood, which is extremely eye-catching. Hu Jinquan is a romantic, and the bamboo forest battle in the filming of "Chivalrous Girl" was borrowed from the future "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Li Hanxiang is a realist, and he likes to shoot Qing court dramas, which stems from his examination and research of history.

The above three directors do not quite meet the requirements of Chen Xiaotang to shoot "Assassin's Creed", although they are really directors and their fame is really loud.

In contrast, among the young emerging directors, Chen Xiaotang admires Cheng Xiaodong the most. Others like Xu Anhua, Tan Jiaming, Xu Ke, Wu Yusen, and Huang Tailai are also good. Wang Tong's film, the script is weak, but he shoots it well, like a work of art,.

Generally speaking, cutting-edge directors dare to shoot rampage, but the skills of old directors are profound and watchable.

Therefore, Chen Xiaotang decided that if possible, this drama would be directed by Cheng Xiaodong, a cutting-edge director, and the route taken by this drama is romantic, don't forget, Cheng Xiaodong's "Undefeated in the East" in the previous life was romantic enough!

After thinking about it, Chen Xiaotang no longer hesitated, and took advantage of the inspiration that emerged in his mind, Chen Xiaotang picked up the pen, brushed it, and wrote wildly.

Minutes and seconds passed.

Chen Xiaotang didn't know how long he had been writing, but he felt that inspiration was pouring out like a spring, and he couldn't stop at all.

Under his pen, a white-clad assassin leaps onto the page and gradually takes shape......

Just when Chen Xiaotang was busy creating his new script, the Hong Kong media, which had calmed down, was boiling again, there was no way, the Hong Kong entertainment industry was like a roller coaster, with ups and downs, and no limit to the excitement. However, what attracted everyone's attention this time was no longer Magic Shadow Entertainment, no longer the Tseung Kwan O land that had just been put into the project, and no longer the gossip scandal of a big-name star, but the 4th Hong Kong Film Awards!

Founded in 1982, this award has become the goal of all filmmakers in Hong Kong since its inception. It has also become a gladiatorial arena to evaluate the real strength of major film companies and the real acting skills of various actors.

As an annual event in the entire Hong Kong film industry, the Hong Kong Film Awards has become the most eye-catching festival for almost all relevant people, on this day, not only Hong Kong, but also all regions in Asia, will be focused on here, watching the birth of a new miracle!

But what kind of miracle will there be this year?!

Recently, Hong Kong TVB has been very prosperous, not only because they won the highest ratings in prime time with a martial arts TV series "Xiao Li Flying Knife", but also broke the all-time record of 60 points of master, creating a new history; What's more, because they also grabbed the live broadcast rights of the Hong Kong Film Awards this time, they are known as one of the big winners behind the Academy Awards.

You must know that as an annual event in Hong Kong, if you can obtain the right to broadcast live, it is equivalent to obtaining high ratings, obtaining huge profits, and increasing the popularity of the TV station in Asia and even the world.

As the boss behind TVB, Shao Daheng has always paid attention to brand promotion, and with the help of the Academy Awards, it is undoubtedly a good opportunity.

However, if you want to become famous and open up your popularity, you must make great efforts. Shao Daheng, who has been in business for a long time, understands this deeply, so he has always been stingy with a stroke of his pen and directly arranged this Academy Awards at the Hung Hom Stadium in Hong Kong.

It costs a lot of money to lease Hung Hom, which is inevitably a little painful for Shao Daheng, who has always been accustomed to being a thrifty housekeeper. No way, the richer you are, the more stingy you will be in some ways. So Shao Daheng was thinking about how to recover some losses, and at this time, he remembered Chen Xiaotang.

Chen Xiaotang held a concert in the Red Pavilion, and it would be great if he could be invited to be the guest performer at the Academy Awards, of course, for free.

Shao Tycoon is calculating very well, not to mention that now Chen Xiaotang is fighting with himself, it is also appropriate to let this kid help a little, he is an old man, and it is normal for him to show respect for the old and love for the young.

So, Shao Daheng didn't care whether people were busy or not, and directly called Chen Xiaotang, and said on the phone, I must invite you to come to the Red Pavilion, there are important things to negotiate, if you don't come, I won't leave.

Pick, this time Chen Xiaotang was forced hard.

On the one hand, he is busy taking care of the affairs of the Demon City Cinema, and on the other hand, he is busy writing the script of "Assassin's Creed", and here he has to be like a junior, facing the sixth uncle with the biography.

Wooden method, Chen Xiaotang thinks he is a polite and good young man, not to mention that the sixth uncle also plays tricks, which may be absolutely rare.

So, Chen Xiaotang asked the fat man Wang Jing to accompany him, took time, and drove directly to the Hong Kong Red Hall.
