Chapter 152: The Battlefield Reopens (Ask for Recommendation)
"This guy can really pretend. B, I'm really convinced. ”
Everyone in the theater looked at the screen in front of them, the figure that looked like Chu Ling, leading eight unclear figures to stand proudly above the starry sky, trampling the stars under their feet, and no less than half of the people couldn't help but roll their eyes.
The sky full of stars is below, and nine people are at the top, and most of the people present can't help but feel unclear while rolling their eyes wildly.
The next moment, the starry sky and the nine figures shattered instantly, turning into flying starlight, which were slowly connected together to form the big characters of "Starry Sky Entertainment Co., Ltd."
The screen went black instantly, but everyone in the theater was still immersed in shock.
Listening to the exclamations behind him, Chu Ling couldn't help but nod with satisfaction: "This is the effect I want, it's not in vain that I spent more than 20 million yuan for this." ”
From the beginning to the end, it was only a short half a minute, and this special effect cost 2,000 Hong Kong dollars, but the effect was just right, you must know that this special effects industrial light and magic took more than half a year to complete, otherwise the previous movies would not have been bare.
"Chu Ling's work!"
The screen lit up again, and four big characters instantly appeared in the middle of the screen, still domineering and awe-inspiring, but now everyone sees it again without the shock they used to be.
The words are still those words, the wind and bones are still not reduced, but the scenery is not there.
The screen flashed again, and with the subtitles, at the beginning of the film, Chen Zhen, played by Chu Ling, appeared on the screen, and the location was Japan.
"Holy! What was that? Too bullish. B. Compared to this, those special effects blockbusters are simply far behind. ”
"It deserves to be the number one entertainment giant in Hong Kong. Just by looking here, you can feel the monstrous domineering spirit of the side leakage. ”
"Good is good, shock is shock. But what's going on with that guy who looks like Chu Ling? It's too good to fit. ”
"Amazing, it is not a loss to be called the godfather of Asian propaganda in the industry, just this short clip can make 80% of moviegoers remember this face, amazing, amazing."
In the midst of the exclamation, the film played slowly, and then came to the first fight scene, where Chen Zhen cleanly defeated a group of Japanese.
Compared to the original. In this fight, Chu Ling made a lot of changes, after all, now he no longer needs to carefully maintain the original work, for fear of ruining one classic after another, with his current status and achievements, he already has the spirit to make changes.
The most important thing is that he is Chu Ling, not Li Lian.
So. In this budding fight, Chu Ling not only retained the essence of the original book, but also added the ruthlessness of the later kung fu superstar Donnie Yen, as well as his personal fighting ideas over the years.
Although it was only a budding battle. However, with the end of this fight, regardless of the star directors of all walks of life. Still a reporter, all of them involuntarily took back their previously distracted attention.
"Classic! An absolute classic! ”
"A kung fu superstar no less than Bruce Lee, Cheng Long, and Hong Jinbao!"
At this moment. As long as there is a little vision, these two thoughts popped up in their hearts, and they subconsciously glanced in the direction of Chu Ling. Then I was completely immersed in the movie.
Prior to this, even if Chu Ling had single-handedly pushed all the martial arts gyms in Hong Kong in the past month, the people in the circle were just watching the excitement, although they agreed with his status as a first-class kung fu star, they had never compared him with Cheng Long or even Bruce Lee.
It's not that everyone looks down on him, but knowing martial arts doesn't mean that you can become a kung fu star, otherwise there wouldn't be only one Bruce Lee in Hong Kong.
However, even if you don't want to admit it, there's no way not to admit it.
Among the more than 50 theaters in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and Asia, 80 percent of moviegoers have this idea.
And with the emergence of more exciting and hot fight scenes than the original book, as well as novel martial arts concepts, all the people were flushed and excited when they saw it.
Tsui Hark, who was sitting in the back row, watched Chen Zhen, played by Chu Ling, play a very impactful and picture-like action, and his face couldn't help but flash a touch of shock.
"It's worthy of Chu Ling, amazing, it looks like Applejack has an opponent now." Turning his head to look at Liu Lian beside him with an excited face, Tsui Hark couldn't help but show a look of eagerness to try.
At the same time, in the corner of the second floor, Hong Jinbao, Yuan Biao, and Cheng Longshi sat together, and they all saw the heaviness and expectation on each other's faces.
"Aaron, you have an opponent in the future." Hong Jinbao looked at Cheng Long beside him with a solemn face with a sigh.
Raising his head, Cheng Long looked forward to each other: "Each other." ”
"I quit, the gap is too big." Yuan Biao said with a wry smile, his face difficult to hide the look of loss.
If it were possible, he wouldn't want to retreat without a fight, admitting that he couldn't compare to others, but he was self-aware, compared with the two people around him, his status was far behind, and there was no comparison with Chu Lingsan at all, and it was better to quit now than to be embarrassed later.
Hearing this, the two stopped talking, but they both saw anticipation, excitement, and solemnity on each other's faces.
Although the opponent is worth looking forward to, the opponent represents the pressure.
Causeway Bay Starry Sky Cinema.
"Ah Chang, it seems that I still underestimated this kid before." Looking at Chu Ling fighting on the screen in front of him, Zou Wenhuai's face was solemn.
Turning his head to look at Zou Wenhuai beside him, He Guanchang looked puzzled: "Didn't we just go all out to deal with him before?" How can you underestimate it? ”
"Whew"
Breathing a sigh of relief and regaining his composure, Zou Wenhuai said coldly: "In the past, my goal was Hollywood, and I only used three percent of my strength to deal with him, but now it seems that it is necessary to give up entering Hollywood, otherwise, after a while, Hong Kong will not have a foothold for my Golden Harvest." ”
Speaking of this, looking at He Guanchang beside him with a puzzled face, Zou Wenhuai took out a cigar and hung it in his mouth, and said solemnly: "Hong Kong is the world of kung fu movies!" ”
After speaking. Ignoring He Guanchang, who looked stunned, he got up directly and left the table halfway. There is no intention of looking any further.
At this moment.
Among the starry sky theaters across Hong Kong, entertainment giants such as Golden Princess's Lei Juekun, Shaw Brothers' Run Run Shaw, and the struggle group of New Arts City are all dignified.
in Hong Kong. Since the emergence of a Bruce Lee, whether it is Zou Wenhuai, Run Run Shaw, or Lei Juekun, they all think from the bottom of their hearts: Hong Kong is the world of kung fu movies!
Because, Bruce Lee is famous all over the world because of kung fu movies, and Cheng Long and Sammo Hung are also famous in Asia because of kung fu movies, and in Asia, kung fu movies are the most profitable and market-oriented films.
Therefore, as far as the identity of the actor is concerned, there was no filming of "Jingwu Heroes" before. Chu Ling's salary is one million, and after filming, his salary is five million.
This is the gap, although this statement is not all true, but in Hong Kong, and even in Asia, kung fu films are definitely the undisputed number one genre films, whether it is to open up the market or box office appeal. It's not comparable to other types of films.
In the past, Zou Wenhuai and others also attached great importance to Chu Ling, but after watching "Jingwu Heroes" again, this attention has surpassed everything. There was even the idea of replacing offense with defense
Just as soon as "Jingwu Heroes" was released, when the Christmas file war was first kicked off, entertainment companies such as Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Arts City had quickly completed their film scheduling plans.
"Inform the media. "Weilong Detective" premiered at 8 o'clock this evening, and then it will be fully released the day after tomorrow. I was instructed to go all out in terms of publicity and public relations. ”
"Police Story" made Aaron hurry up and shoot. Then complete the post-production, and speed up the post-production of "Lucky Stars", but the quality can't be bad, and the publicity and public relations can be launched now. ”
In the office building of Jiahe Entertainment, orders were passed down from the mouths of Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang.
""Happy Ghost Summer Vacation" premiered in the evening and will be released tomorrow, and other movies will also give me time to promote, and also, contact Golden Harvest to discuss the joint broadcast of the two theaters."
Xinyi City, Lei Juekun, who controls most of the shares, commanded in a deep voice.
Compared with the previous two, the Shaw Brothers seemed extremely calm, and did not act immediately, but proceeded unhurriedly according to the original plan.
"It's really a head caught in the door, since he is in the limelight, so why harm his own interests to hit hard, it's better to avoid the limelight for the time being, and then work steadily to maximize benefits, this is a businessman." Hanging up the phone, Run Run Shaw shook his head and sighed.
In fact, he is addicted, if it weren't for Jiahe and Xinyicheng in front, it would be strange that he could sit still, after all, although it is a good move to temporarily avoid the limelight, but if you condone the other party and make it more sharp, it will be worth the loss.
"Bell bell bell"
After a moment's pause, Run Run Shaw picked up the phone, and after a while, he put down the phone, with a look of displeasure on his face, pondered for a moment, and then picked up the phone again.
"Advance the premiere of "Jianghu Love" and "Big and Small" to tonight, and release them the day after tomorrow." Shaw commanded in a deep voice.
After hanging up the phone and being silent for a moment, Run Run Shaw put away the displeasure on his face, shook his head and sighed: "After all, it is not a person all the way, and it is better to have less contact in the future." ”
At the same time, in the office of the director of Yongsheng Entertainment, Xiang Huaqiang and Xiang Huasheng brothers sat opposite each other.
"If you do this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to put the film back on Shaw Brothers in the future." Xiang Huaqiang frowned, looked at Xiang Huasheng in front of him, and couldn't help but show a trace of worry in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I've already contacted Golden Harvest, where can the film be played in the future, big brother, as long as the film is good, in Hong Kong, there will definitely be no theaters." Xiang Huasheng said coldly, his face flashing with a hint of hideousness.
Seeing this, a trace of hesitation flashed in Xiang Huaqiang's eyes, but looking at Xiang Huasheng's lost ear, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and sighed secretly: "After all, it is a brother." ”
"It's up to you."
"Thank you, big brother!"
A flash of joy flashed, Xiang Huasheng regained his gloom, but his eyes flashed with a hint of hideousness, and he subconsciously raised his hand to touch his ears, and when he reached his chest, his hand was frozen in mid-air, and his face became more and more gloomy. (To be continued......)
