Chapter 216 Police Turn On
readx; "Don't say three conditions, it's three hundred, and I agree to three thousand conditions!" Cheng Long heard that Li Yihua had the ability to invite Honggu out, and said without thinking. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In the eyes of others, this movie is just an ordinary movie, but for Cheng Long now, it is very important, and it is no exaggeration to say that this movie is his turnaround.
Ever since he had an unpleasant quarrel with Boss Zou, Cheng Long has been thinking about his way out, and there is no doubt that there are two ways to go in front of him. One is to continue to be a grandson in Golden Harvest and live a life that comes and goes when you call it; The second is to set up his own company and be the boss like his senior brother Hong Jinbao, and from then on, the sky is high and the birds fly deep and the fish leap.
After kneeling, Cheng Long chose to set up a company without hesitation, unwilling to live the life of a grandson. The team that established the company is a family class, and the work is the sequel to "Police Story" promised by Li Yihua. Now what Cheng Long wants is to shoot "Police Story" well, and then rely on its good reputation and fans to start his company's first shot. So he will not hesitate to agree to the factors that are conducive to the movie.
There is another reason, that is, to ease the relationship between him and Honggu, since the last time he fell out, to be honest, Cheng Long's heart was full of guilt, after all, he did something wrong and deceived Honggu.
"Big brother, this is a big-scene movie, to put it bluntly, it is also a big production of my Longsheng company, and it is also a movie that the Governor of Hong Kong is concerned about, only success is allowed, and failure is not allowed. I'm going to be very strict on the set, maybe it's different from your philosophy, and then it's my opinion. ”
Li Yihua has this request, it is absolutely very necessary, Cheng Long is a tyrant on the set, it is not a day or two, and when the time comes, they will not give in to each other, so it is better to say anything in advance.
Li Yihua continued with a serious expression: "The second point is to ensure the personal safety of all the actors in the filming, especially the eldest brother's family class, one person buys an insurance with them, and the crew pays for it. Especially you, big brother, you must not do particularly dangerous actions without my permission. ”
As the top team in Hong Kong, the family formation class parted ways because Cheng Long did not share the blessings after the big hit, and it cannot be said that it is not a pity. For the sake of movie quality, Cheng Long is extremely demanding on these brothers, and dangerous actions are fatal at any time every day, and the worst thing is that none of Cheng Long and the family class had insurance at that time, and many brothers often rubbed shoulders with death. If Cheng Ren is killed or injured because of this movie, this is not what Li Yihua wants to see.
Cheng Long nodded vigorously and said: "No problem, I will do this little thing, even if you don't say it, I will buy insurance for the members of the family class, you can rest assured that Ah Hua, even if they are injured and disabled, I will take care of them without worrying about food and clothing." ”
Looking at Cheng Long with a sincere face, Li Yihua sighed secretly in his heart, if this is the case, the family formation class in the future generations will not be disbanded, let alone the old members will come out to accuse him one by one.
"Third, and most importantly!" Li Yihua thought about it and said: "Don't use the opportunity to entangle Honggu, the love between men and women is originally what you and I want, and it is too much, and even friends can't do it." ”
"Uh......" Cheng Long, who was full of interest, was suddenly stunned, and his face turned red suddenly, and he said embarrassedly at the moment: "Ahua, I'..... I see, this time I'm just going to make good movies and I'm not going to do anything. ”
"My Fair Lady, good gentleman, this is human nature." Li Yihua nodded and said, "But if people don't agree, don't force it!" ”
"I see." Cheng Long lowered his head, being taught a lesson by a guy who was younger than himself, and he felt awkward.
...............
On January 10, 1985, "Police Story" was officially launched, and at the opening ceremony, dozens of senior police officers including the Royal Hong Kong Police and the Commissioner of Kowloon Police attended the ceremony.
Since the film is based on the police, and the purpose is to promote the awe-inspiring righteousness of the Hong Kong police and establish a positive image of the Royal Hong Kong Police, the Commissioner of Police delivered a very inspiring speech at the opening ceremony, in order to let the Hong Kong people see the determination and confidence of the police to rectify the police.
Li Yihua, as the producer, producer, and director of this film, can be said to have the power of life and death in one hand, Cheng Long is the starring role, martial arts instructor, and assistant director of the film, Zhong Chuhong and Zhang Manyu play the roles of Salena and Ami in the film.
The villain lineup is also very strong, Wu Zhenyu plays the role of the big drug lord Zhu Tao, and Liang Jiahui replaces the role of Qin Xianglin in the original version.
Including Hong Kong's luxurious star lineup, Li Yihua's personal guidance, and dozens of senior police officers have paid close attention, which has attracted the media of Hong Kong as soon as the filming of "Police Story" started, who is embarrassed to go out if they don't know this movie.
Fu Baorong commanded the field staff to move the table together, and then put on the roast suckling pig, roast goose and many fruits. After arranging the altar, Li Yihua took all the staff to worship God, put his hands together and poured incense, and muttered in his mouth: "All gods, bless the filming of "Police Story" smoothly and everyone is safe and ............."
After Li Yihua finished worshipping, everyone else also put on incense and prayed one by one, looking at the senior police officer standing next to him, who had the surname of his platform, and it was quite funny, and a group of senior officials watched the crew turn on and worship God.
It's a combination that has never been done before, and then what? And then there was no then.
As soon as the worship was over, the reporters swarmed up and surrounded the members of the crew.
"Yi Shao, your company has always been a small-budget film-based, this time the film with a big fanfare and a big investment is made, does it mean that Longsheng Pictures is no longer satisfied with the current situation and has begun to compete in the film industry?" A reporter asked impatiently.
"Everything is from small to big, and here I would like to thank all the fans for their support, it is you who have spoiled me and given me a lot of confidence. The reason why I made a big movie is to give back to my fans, you are my food and clothing, and if possible, I will make better movies. Li Yihua said with a smile, "As for the deer film industry, it's too much, I just want to make my movies well, as for other ideas, I really don't have any!" ”
"That Yi Shao, is this movie really as the outside world said to invest 30 million Hong Kong dollars?" The reporter hurriedly asked.
Li Yihua said bluntly: "Our film is a big investment, and the initial planned investment cost is 30 million Hong Kong dollars. ”
There are really no films in Hong Kong that dare to spend 30 million to shoot, and even the old blockbusters promoted by Golden Harvest, Shaw Brothers, and New Arts City are just a simple 10 million Hong Kong dollars, not to mention that there is still water in it.
It was a big news for a while, Hong Kong's first blockbuster was produced in the hands of Longsheng Pictures.
"Yi Shao, everyone knows that since your debut, you have been enabling newcomers and giving them opportunities, why are there no newcomers in the movie this time?" A bespectacled girl asked weakly.
"Haha, you should be a newcomer, the most important thing in the journalist industry is to be bold." Li Yihua nodded at her and said with a smile, "Who said I didn't bring a newcomer, aren't you just one?" Although you didn't appear in my movie, I interviewed me, I gave you the opportunity to interview, I just changed the way to promote you. ”
Hearing his answer, the low reporter burst into laughter, and the girl blushed with shame all of a sudden, and muttered unconvinced, "What kind of answer is this?" If you don't use a newcomer, you don't use a newcomer, and you don't use it around the corner. ”
Unfortunately, this almost complained was heard by Li Yihua, and he was not angry at all, "As a director, the most important thing is to know people, and when I meet the right actors, I will give them a chance." It's not appropriate, I can only say I'm sorry, after all, I'm responsible for those who eat with me. ”
"Yi Shao, how much do you expect to reach the box office of "Police Story"?"
"This ..... I really can't say this, but if you reporters all watch this movie, I believe this drama will not be too bad. ”
The reporter who questioned him choked up all of a sudden, and he felt that he had been annihilated if he failed to make a mockery.
"Big brother, are you and Honggu really in tow?" A gossip reporter asked.
Cheng Long, who was smiling, suddenly darkened his face, glared at him fiercely, and said coldly, "No comment!" ”
This reporter is quite wonderful as Xiaoqiang, and seeing that there is no benefit, he immediately pointed the microphone at Zhong Chuhong, "Aunt Hong, can you tell me when you and your eldest brother started?" ”
"Start? Why should you start? We're just friends, not the kind of relationship you think. participated in this play, mainly because the script was very good, and I believed in Yi Shao's directing ability. Zhong Chuhong smiled at him and said.
"Journalists, this is the end of today's interview! Hope to see you next time. Li Yihua saw that the interview was becoming more and more gossipy, and immediately stood up to stop it.
Although he was very reluctant to leave, he saw the senior policeman on the side, and suddenly pinched again.
The next day's newspaper became the news of the launch of "Hong Kong Police" without exception, and the citizens were paying close attention to the filming progress of this film, so Li Yihua can be said to be very relaxed, he has watched Cheng Long's movie more than once, every shot is in his head, all he has to do now is to delete the unreasonable plot and add Hollywood-approved shooting techniques.
As for the action design, it is all left to Cheng Long, after all, he is an expert in this area, and Li Yihua's role is to supervise.
