In fact, if you just want to make money, action movies are much easier than martial arts movies, but Xiao Jian's purpose now is not to make money, but to promote himself, and it is not impossible to promote himself with action movies, but in that case, he will need several, or even more than a dozen films, for several years.

However, if it is a martial arts film, and it is a widely known work like Jin Yong's novel, then as long as he shoots it well, with the length of the TV series and the heaviness of the movie, he can definitely use only these two works to completely promote himself in Southeast Asia.

Xiao Jian has the most confidence in this, not because he is arrogant, but confident, you know, his current movies, novels, TV series and other works are still being broadcast in Southeast Asia, and he already has a lot of popularity.

You must know that in this era, martial arts films are still the kind of martial arts films that are fought on the ground, and it can be said that there is no use of Weiya to fight in the Tianshan Mountains, at most, it is just to use Weiya to fly in the sky, and he is now directly using the mature theory of aerial fighting, which is at least 5 years beyond the times.

This alone is enough to make his work a striking effect.

Don't underestimate the time of these five years, the current martial arts are the old martial arts, and the five years later will be the new school of martial arts, this alone is enough to illustrate the problem.

What's more, in his two works, there is not only the selling point of playing in the sky, but he also added a lot of special effects to it, and its level is definitely beyond the current 20 years, and it has been broadcast absolutely shocking.

Coupled with this combination of handsome men and beautiful women similar to ancient idol dramas, the gorgeous costumes, and the ultra-realistic landscape brought by big investments, if this can't make a classic, then he will be killed directly.

It can be said that these characteristics alone are enough for Xiao Jian to rely on these two works to completely gain a foothold in Southeast Asia, and let people from Southeast Asian countries call his name when they see his face, even if they are not his fans.

Not to mention. In the end, he also used the real murderous martial arts in his mind, as long as the work involved the fighting, he put it into it, like a lot of martial arts similar to "Qinglian Sword Technique", and there are definitely not a few picturesque scenes like now.

You must know that the martial arts of "Qinglian Sword Technique" are real murderous swords. Although this set of swordsmanship was not created by Li Bai, it was also created by later generations according to Li Bai's works and legends, and was used in battles and fights.

Xiao Jian is based on this real martial arts, and cooperates with his far beyond ordinary human body. These 'picturesque' shots are topped up in the two works, plus the big investment scenes, it is already a very simple thing to become famous in Southeast Asian countries.

Even, it is by no means impossible to open the European and American markets in this way.

With Xiao Jian's vision from later generations, "Smiling Proud Jianghu: Undefeated in the East" is definitely not worse than the two films "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero", and even, in this era, the sensational effect caused by this is definitely not comparable to the two works of "Hero".

You know, he's nearly 20 years ahead of schedule.

And, seriously, it doesn't matter what others think. As far as he is concerned, compared with the two films "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero", he prefers "Smiling Proud Jianghu: The East is Undefeated", and in terms of storytelling, he also thinks the latter is better.

Now with this better story, plus the big scenes that are not bad at all, plus the fight scenes that far surpass the latter, and it was released 20 years ahead of schedule, if such works can't enter the European and American markets, then he still died early with the idea of using martial arts films to enter Europe and the United States.

After all. If such martial arts films are not liked by European and American audiences, then don't say anything, except for using time and a large number of classic works to change the concept of European and American audiences, don't think about martial arts films.

So. For these two works, Xiao Jian is almost 100% sure that they will cause a sensation in Southeast Asian countries, after all, these countries are deeply influenced by Chinese culture, and Jin Yong's "Smiling Proud Jianghu" also has a certain popularity, plus his fame. These two works have been withdrawn and are definitely capable of causing a sensational effect.

As for Europe and the United States...

Forget it, let's leave it to fate, in the case of these two cultures, no matter how confident Xiao Jian is in these two works, he really doesn't have the slightest certainty.

"Whew..."

After carefully checking it and not finding any mistakes in the footage just shot, Xiao Jian also breathed a sigh of relief, the state of almost epiphany just now made him really not sure that he could do better than just now, and it was better to do it again.

Raising his head and looking at the nervous crowd, Xiao Jian smiled and said, "OK, this one is over, everyone is ready to shoot the next one." ”

"Yay!!"

"Long live the director!!"

…….

In an instant, a cheer rang out in the sky, and after being happy for a while, the crew was also happily chatting about the shot just now, while preparing to shoot the next one.

"Xiao Dong is so strong, he is simply a god, he is worthy of being my idol, he can shoot such a powerful classic shot, if this film can't break Xiao Dong's previous record, I will eat the camera."

"Cut!"

"You obviously won't lose, with the director's ability, as long as the post-production is not too bad, this film is definitely a classic among the classics, and it is absolutely no problem to break the record."

"By the way, this set of swordsmanship just now doesn't seem to be "Dugu Nine Swords", although it is just as powerful, but this set of swordsmanship is obviously more murderous, and there is a trace of dust in the huge murderous aura, and the simple, direct, and sharp "Dugu Nine Swords" are obviously two sets of swordsmanship."

"Don't you say that I really haven't noticed, it's really this situation, it's worthy of being my idol, it's strong, this peerless swordsmanship is actually at hand, it's definitely the strongest in the world."

……

Listening to the discussion of the crew, Xiao Jian couldn't help but shake his head, but the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

Time passed slowly, Xiao Jian took the crew to travel around Southeast Asian countries, shooting classic shots in scenic spots, and a month later, he led the crew back to Hong Kong, and the two works were also filmed and began to enter the post-production process. (To be continued.) )
