Chapter 205: "Mythology" Creates Myth (I)
Chapter 205 "Mythology" Creation Zào Myth (I)
April 1st is also considered a holiday.
"Myth", this film that took Zhang Yi half a year from preparation to release, is also the film that Zhang Yi took the longest time to shoot a movie.
Now, with great expectations, it will be released simultaneously in Southeast Asia and mainland China. Of course, there is one area that has been banned.
Nowadays, the relationship between Taiwan and the mainland is still a little special, and this movie, which can almost be said to be co-produced with the mainland, naturally cannot be released in Taiwan. However, Zhang Yi seems to be much better than Liang Jiahui and has not been banned by the Taiwan authorities.
Of course, it can't be blocked. It was rumored that after Zhang Yi and the mainland co-produced a movie, Zhang Yi's other films were still released in Taiwan.
Moreover, "Myth" could not be released in Taiwan, and the Taiwan authorities were under great pressure. After all, Zhang Yi's fame is there, and his fans in Taiwan are unknown. Some of these crazy fans even gathered in protest at the gates of certain departments. caused quite a stir.
Zhang Yizhi was ready to start filming this movie, and he was already prepared. only blocked this movie, which is already good for Zhang Yi.
The mainland film market and the Taiwan film market, if Zhang Yi had to make a choice, Zhang Yi naturally chose the former without hesitation.
Now, just this movie has lost the Taiwan market, which is a surprise for Zhang Yi.
The premiere of "Mythology" can be described as a star-studded show. Celebrities and bigwigs in the film industry are almost all present. Zhang Yi now has a transcendent status in the Hong Kong film industry, not to mention that no one can match it, at least there are few people who can compare with it.
Of course, those people came, and in addition to Zhang Yi's reasons, there were many people who were interested in this movie. They want to know what kind of surprises and inspirations Zhang Yi's new film will bring to them.
Zhang Yi originally wanted to cooperate with TVB to get the premiere or something. But in the end, I gave up.
There was not too much nonsense, and before the broadcast, Zhang Yi did not greet the celebrities who came to cheer as before, this time he just asked Yuan Kui and Li Lianjie to do it for him. And he, Zhou Huimin and Liao Yiyuan accompanied Shao Daheng in the private room.
At the beginning of the movie, the first thing that appeared was the words "Zhang Yi's works". As soon as these four words came out, applause immediately rang out in the theater.
Fans know that as long as it is a movie directed by Zhang Yi, these four words will appear before the movie starts. These four words have undoubtedly become a symbol of Zhang Yi's film.
After the words "Zhang Yi's works", the production and production companies appeared, followed by the cast. At the end, the two words "myth" appear in blood red! After these two words disappeared, the film officially began.
The sky is full of yellow sand. The princess escort team walked from the endless desert, showing the style of China's Western Regions from far and near. And Meng Yi's welcoming team also walked slowly on the yellow plateau.
These scenes are obviously not photographed in Hong Kong.
The simple words let the audience in the theater know that this is a small country around Great Qin, and they are afraid of the strength of Qin, so they have to marry the princess to the old man of Qin Shihuang as a concubine.
and pro. It has appeared many times in the history of China. But mostly cowardice with shame. And now, because of the strength of the Qin State, everyone suddenly has a sense of pride.
Then, because of the appearance of the Fanbang general played by Rong Zhang. The fiancé of this princess, in order to prove that his country does not need to be cowardly, reached peace in such a shameful way. He has the ability to protect his own women and protect his country.
And this proves that it is to kill the Mengjia army as a welcoming team. This Megatron Great Qin elite.
War, a small-scale war, but also very shocking. A rain of arrows. The impermeable shields, the guerrilla charges of the cavalry, and the pairs of infantry are all exciting to watch.
In the theater, almost all the audience were stunned when they saw this war, and their hands clenched their fists with excitement.
"That's the real big picture! War, this is war! Army, that's how it should be! He Guanchang said with some sighs.
Everyone else in the private room nodded. In the past, wars were just a few or a dozen tricks running around and making trouble. Now, compared with this war scene, it was not a war in the past, but a joke!
And many directors present at the scene, when they saw this scene, they all wondered in their hearts, if they changed themselves, could they do it?
When Zhang Yi heard this, he smiled. This is the big scene, what is it that snatched Johnson & Johnson's elixir and Meng Yi was robbed and killed?
In the film, the Mengjia army defeated the Fanbang army with its strong strength, and the Fanbang general played by Yu Rongqi was unwilling and led more than a dozen pro-soldiers to snatch the princess played by Zhou Huimin. Seeing this, Meng Yi, played by Li Lianju, immediately handed over the command of the army to the deputy general, and then rushed forward with his own soldiers, wanting to rescue the princess.
A small number of cavalry fought, fast, ruthless, and accurate, and in the end, only Meng Yi played by Li Lianjie and Fanbang general played by Yu Rongqi remained, and the two chased the princess's carriage and staged a fierce fight on the horse.
Meng Yi made a bronze long sword, and the general of Fanbang had a scimitar, the collision of weapons and weapons, coupled with the galloping horses, was indescribably thrilling.
In this scene, it took a lot of time to shoot, and Li Lianjie and Yu Rongqi were also injured as a result. But now watching the theater audience be fascinated, that qiē is undoubtedly worth it.
"This fight is definitely expected to compete for the best action design at the next Academy Awards! Did you design it, or did Ah Yi design it? Hong Jinbao looked at this scene and said to Yuan Kui and Yuan De beside him.
"Huh! It was Mr. Zhang's idea. Yuan Kui and Yuan De glanced at each other, Yuan Kui smiled and said.
Although this scene is wonderful, it is not the most exciting in this film.
Like the original, both princesses fall off cliffs. And the scene instantly turned to the present.
"Holy! It turned out to be a dream! I thought it was a costume drama? A fan saw Li Lian who woke up from a dream and said suddenly.
"It could just be a simple dream! It can be seen from the trailer that there are still a lot of ancient scenes. A fan choked his mouth and said.
The film progresses slowly, and the scientist who studies the power of levitation played by Liang Jiahui appears and invites Jack, played by Li Lianju, to go to Chinese mainland because a hanging coffin is found in one place.
This plot was originally arranged in India, but it was changed by Zhang Yi. He always felt that the plot was a little unreasonable. Let's not talk about how the Qin State was connected with the surrounding countries at that time, how could an emperor, especially a domineering emperor like Qin Shi Huang, let a prince of Fanbang choose his own concubines.
Of course, the owner of the hanging coffin is no longer a prince, but the general of that state. The portrait of the princess in the hanging coffin was requested by the general of the state in the name of his king's longing for his daughter. And the sword of Meng Yi next to the hanging coffin became the one that Meng Yi stabbed into the body of the general of that state when he was fighting with Meng Yi and did not pull it out.
As for the stone with the power of levitation, it was naturally obtained from Qin Shi Huang.
Naturally, there is a fight here, the hanging coffin has a guardian, and during the fight, Jack played by Li Lianjie was forced to jump into the river as in the original version.
And then the scene goes back to ancient times.
"!"
The switch between ancient and modern times is at a critical time, which makes people want to stop, and some fans who have a bad temper can't help but scold.
However, I was soon attracted to the plot again. Meng Yi and the princess were in trouble, their feelings gradually emerged, and a hardship finally reached the border of Qin.
Great Wall! When this symbol of China appeared, a round of applause was immediately remembered in the theater. Then he was attracted by Zhou Huimin's solo dance by the Great Wall.
"I'm afraid helicopters are used for this shot, right?" Zou Tycoon looked at Zhang Yi and asked.
"Not bad!" Zhang Yi nodded.
"It seems that Mr. Zhang's relationship in the mainland is not ordinary. The mainland is not like the United States, as long as you spend money, you can find helicopters! Zou Daheng smiled and said, "The mainland environment does have unique conditions, no wonder I heard that Mr. Zhang spent hundreds of millions of dollars to build a cinema on the mainland." ”
The environment in Zou Daheng's mouth naturally does not refer to the political environment, but to the scenery. The scene of the Great Wall can attract many people. After all, although they are the descendants of Yan and Huang, who has never heard of the Great Wall. There are a few more people who have been seen. Zhang Yi's high-altitude overhead scene shows the appearance of the Great Wall, and those who have seen it, I don't know how many people want to go to the mainland to see the Great Wall.
