Chapter 232 Finale Reception
Chapter 232 Finale Reception
The cameos of the big names in the sequel to "Resident Evil" may not be as many as those in the previous life with strong political characteristics such as "founding the country" and "founding the party", but there are definitely a lot.
The monster wiped out a large area with a single machine-gun sweep. Of course, the monster's machine gun is not comparable to the power of ordinary machine guns. But the one that fell could barely count the stars.
And in the whole film, naturally not only this scene is a cameo by big names, some are invited by Zhang Yi, and some are taken the initiative by themselves.
But anyway, after two months of filming, the sequel to "Resident Evil" has finally been completed and entered post-production.
After the film was completed, Shaw Brothers held a grand finale party, and Zhang Yi, as a director, producer and investor, naturally would not fail to attend.
Of course, in addition to the cast and crew of the film, there are also some stars who cheer on the scene. Naturally, it is indispensable to invite some media.
"When are you going to release this movie?" Shao Tycoon said to Zhang Yi. Now he is smiling, some time ago Zhang Yi planned the "Asian Dream Show" has been broadcast on wireless for two episodes, and its ratings are so hot that it is beyond everyone's expectations, and it actually overshadowed the ratings of "Millionaire" and became the highest-rated program on TVB.
Wireless is on top of variety shows, and it can be said that ATV has no power to fight back. The only thing ATV can compete with is "The Voice". It's a pity that "The Voice" only has one season a year.
If it weren't for Zhang Yi's current and unusual, the price of his script would be too high, and Shao Daheng would have wanted to invite Zhang Yi to the script of the TV series. Of course, if Zhang Yi can direct a TV series himself, it may be better.
However, Zhang Yi filmed a TV series, which is obviously impossible.
"It should be released during the Spring Festival!" Zhang Yi glanced at Shao Daheng and then said.
"Hmmm! Southeast Asia will definitely be released simultaneously. I wonder if there is a problem in North America? Shao Tycoon then said. When the filming of this movie started, many Southeast Asian filmmakers have already come to the door. ”
"Over there in North America, I'll arrange it, and there should be no problem." Zhang Yi thought for a while and said. After all, "Resident Evil" caused a sensation in the United States, and its sequel, if you want to come to other theaters over there, will not let go of this opportunity to make money.
"After this movie is finished, are you going to prepare for "Jurassic Park"?" Shao Tycoon looked at Zhang Yi and then asked.
Zhang Yi shook his head, and then said: "The special effects are technical. It's not perfect! There will be no shooting for the time being. ”
"In your kid's habit of making movies, when the filming of this film is over, when the post-production is completed, the next film will be slowly prepared. When the film is released, a new film will be made. I don't know, what kind of movie are you going to make this time? Shao Tycoon looked at Zhang Yi and smiled.
In the Hong Kong film and television industry, the most profitable ones are definitely not those film and television companies, but the young man in front of him who has no film company in Hong Kong.
A "Ghost Love" can be said to have shocked the eyes of all Hong Kong filmmakers. 500 million in the world, not to mention dollars. Even if it's in Hong Kong dollars. It is estimated that there are many film company owners who can wake up with a smile.
"I haven't figured out what I'm going to shoot yet. Maybe take a break for a while. Maybe invest in a few movies as well. Zhang Yi thought for a while and said.
"I heard that you and the Huo family's Guoshu Building opened in Taipei every few days." Shao Tycoon then said.
Zhang Yi nodded, glanced at Shao Daheng, and said, "I'm going to Taipei in two days." ”
"Huh. Nothing should happen this time! Shao Tycoon smiled and said.
"The martial arts community in Taipei is quite supportive. As for the martial arts circles of Japan, South Korea and Thailand, the lesson given to them last time was big enough. If you don't know what to do, I don't mind giving them another one more profound. Zhang Yi said with a smile.
"Huh." Shao Daheng obviously didn't want to dwell on this. Then he looked at Zhang Yi and said, "I heard that your Jiayi Records is going to hold a few performances for its singers in the Red Pavilion?" ”
"I've heard Uncle Zhan say that." Zhang Yi nodded. looked at Shao Daheng and smiled, and said, "Uncle Sixth doesn't want to broadcast these concerts, right?" ”
"If you kid want to perform on stage, TVB will broadcast it, or even broadcast it live." Shao Daheng looked at Zhang Yi and smiled, "Zhang Guorong and Tan Yonglin are singing on the same stage, although they are attractive. But the two of them together may not be as attractive as yours alone. ”
"Huh. I'm not sure about that. If you have time, you may or may not attend one or two shows. Zhang Yi smiled and said.
Shao Daheng thought about it, but didn't say anything, but looked at Zhang Yi and asked, "You really don't plan to continue directing the third part of "Resident Evil"?" ”
"No more directing. I've lost interest in this movie. If there is no interest, there will be no passion. I don't know how many years later. If Uncle Sixth doesn't mind waiting a few years, I'm willing to continue directing. Zhang Yi shook his head and said.
Wait a few years! Shao Tycoon smiled bitterly. After waiting for your year, how many years will you have to wait?
At the finale reception of the sequel to "Resident Evil", Zhang Yi naturally couldn't sit in the room and talk to Shao Daheng. Zhang Yi generally doesn't drink, but it doesn't prevent him from going out for a walk.
Naturally, the party is not just for drinking to celebrate.
"Mr. Zhang!"
Zhang Yi looked back, but it was Yuan Heping who walked over with a person. And that person, Zhang Yi knows it. But it was Donnie Yen, Yuan Heping's apprentice.
Donnie Yen's movements are different from those of Jackie Chan and Li Lianjie, and he has his own style with actual combat. However, Xingtu is not good compared to the two. It wasn't until Cheng Long gradually grew old and his physical flexibility deteriorated, and Li Lianjie gradually faded out of the film and television industry to be enthusiastic about charity, that he gradually emerged.
If it is really calculated, he and Li Lianjie can barely be regarded as senior brothers. Of course, brothers may not count, but alumni are.
"Mr. Yuan!" Zhang Yi smiled, then looked at Donnie Yen next to him, and said, "This must be your senior disciple Donnie Yen." ”
"Mr. Zhang!" Donnie Yen smiled and hurriedly greeted.
Zhang Yi nodded, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, glanced at Donnie Yen, smiled, and said, "I heard that your mother, Ms. Mai Baochan, studied under Master Fu Yonghui?" Fu school martial arts cover China's three major internal martial arts, Tai Chi, Bagua, and Xingyi. Moreover, when Master Fu Yonghui was studying in Shenyang, he also learned Bajiquan with the spear Li Shuwen and Huo Diange. I wonder if your mother, Ms. Mak Bao Chan, can teach you these kinds of boxing techniques? ”
When Donnie Yen heard this, he smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "My mother is good at tai chi. And since I was a child, I learned Tai Chi with my mother. As for Bagua, Xingyi, and Bajiquan, I am somewhat involved in it, and I am not proficient in it. ”
In fact, Zhang Yi knows that Donnie Yen is good at free fighting. When he first practiced Tai Chi, it was estimated that his mother knew his temperament, so she did not teach him how to fight. So I switched to kickboxing.
A hint of hesitation flashed in Zhang Yi's eyes.
"Mr. Zhang, Danny has a very high talent for martial arts, if you want to learn a kung fu, you will soon be able to take on its form, pass through the camera, and be able to play with a god form." Yuan Heping seemed to have thought of something, and seeing that Zhang Yi was silent, he hurriedly said.
This is an opportunity. Yuan Heping obviously saw it. He and Liu Jialiang filmed the Guoshu Grandmaster series, although the box office was good, they were also very profitable. But in terms of influence, it can't be compared with "Ip Man". Obviously, it did not achieve the effect that Zhang Yi expected.
Yuan Heping obviously heard Zhang Yi's intention from the words just now. He wanted to make a kung fu movie, and he took a fancy to his apprentice. Even if it is not directed by Zhang Yi himself, it is still an opportunity.
"Oh?" Zhang Yi looked at Yuan Heping, but smiled, and then looked at Donnie Yen, in fact, Donnie Yen seemed to have realized something, and was a little nervous.
"I'm going to make a film about Kokushu. The setting will be in the United States, though. Mr. Donnie Yen was born in the United States, so language is naturally not a problem. But my film involves a lot of action, and there's a lot of traditional martial arts in it. Especially with Tai Chi, Xingyi and Bagua, as well as Bajiquan. Zhang Yi glanced at Donnie Yen, and then said, "I believe in Mr. Yuan." This movie is expected to be filmed in the spring of next year, and you can take advantage of this time to go to the Guoshu Building to practice more. I'll say hello over there. Remember, I'm not asking you to learn routines, but how to play! (To be continued......)
