Chapter 222: Countering Violence with Violence
Xiao Jian stood on the stage, surrounded by Zhang Guorong... and other crew members, the entire Li stage resounded with roaring applause, these applause belonged to Brother Xiaoma, Song Zihao... and other roles, which belong to "The True Color of Heroes", and also belong to Xiao Jian and others.
Looking at the excited and adoring crowd below, Xiao Jian's face couldn't help but be full of pride and satisfaction, no matter how many times he experienced it, this kind of scene still made him feel excited.
However, although he was excited, after all, he had experienced a lot, Xiao Jian quickly came back to his senses, and couldn't help but think of the second part of "The True Color of Heroes", which will be filmed next year, and couldn't help but show nostalgia in his eyes.
Maybe a later generation will know that Xiao Jian's decision to shoot "The True Colors of Heroes: The Villain is Refined" is based on the best-selling online novel "How the Bad Guy Is Made" 20 years later.
For this best-selling novel Xiao Jian's later generations, I have been watching it for a long time, although I didn't insist on reading it, but for this black . He likes Taoist novels very much, and in later generations he has seen a web series that is said to be adapted from this novel, but, seriously, he can't read it just by looking at that introduction, anyway, he can't understand why Xie Wendong went to fight against Japan.
Of course, Xiao Jian has also made very big changes to this adaptation, and even, it can be said that he has changed beyond recognition, not that he has an opinion on the original novel, but that the adaptation of the online novel into a movie is almost overturned, after all, although the novel and the movie are both illusory stories and worlds, there is still a big difference.
What's more, Xiao Jian also wants to put the novel into the framework of "The True Colors of Heroes", so it will be even more adapted, and besides, this time filming "Bad Guy Forged" Xiao Jian still plans to shoot a series of works, so he is very serious about the first foundation work in this series.
The details of it have been thought about and thought, which has led to the fact that the script of this movie has not come out so far, and only an outline has been completed.
But seriously, Xiao Jian's next "True Colors of Heroes" series is a gangster movie, but it's not quite right. If he were to describe it, it would be more like a Hollywood kind of hero film, the central theme of which is to 'fight violence with violence', become the master of the darkness, and make the rules. Restrain criminals with rules, protect peace with killing, and eventually forge an underground dynasty and become a god in the dark.
In fact, the specific point is the hero in the dark, and its theme is to 'fight violence with violence'.
This time it can be said that it is an attempt by Xiao Jian. Besides, anyway, he still feels quite emotional about this idea, and he doesn't care much about whether it will be popular, it's a big deal that he spends money to shoot it for himself, as the so-called rich is capricious.
Of course, I don't care about Xiao Jian at the box office, not to mention the reputation of this one, there are still many selling points in the second part of "Bad Guy Forged", such as action scenes and campus dramas. Countering violence with violence... Wait, anyway, for him, this film is still very attractive to him, just thinking about it makes him a little enthusiastic.
But seriously, movies with this theme can be released in Hong Kong in this era, and they will not be able to pass the review level just by putting it to future generations.
And this time, Xiao Jian decided to try to shoot "Bad Guy Refining", the main scene of which is in the fictional 'Dixiang High School', and its ultimate goal is to dominate this school, so as to become the secret protector of this school and rule this high school. If the film is a hit, he'll shoot a third one, and then he'll set the scenes in Hong Kong and build the series on the model of a Hollywood blockbuster.
Arguably. The film released in the summer of next year is also a test of the waters, and as for the effect, we will have to wait until after the release.
Thoughts flickered in his heart, looking at the people who were still applauding, Xiao Jian took a deep breath, suppressed all kinds of chaotic thoughts, and began to send everyone away one by one. Especially Cheng Long and Lin Qingxia, who came to cheer... Wait for others, you must know that after a while, several films such as "Police Story" will also be test-screened.
Xiao Jian doesn't plan to participate in a few test screenings, after all, there are several movies to be tested at the same time this night, and only one will offend the other, so it's better not to go, and this time "The True Color of Heroes" If it wasn't held at 6:00, it is estimated that these people would not come, at most he would take the time to watch these films in the next few days, and by the way, promote it.
By the time the first qiē was over, the time had already come to more than 9:00 p.m., and there were not many people left in the Li stage, and it was only at this time that Xiao Jian Fang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiao Sheng, I wish the movie a big hit, and I have benefited a lot from watching this work of yours."
Hearing the sound behind him, Xiao Jian turned around to look at Tsui Hark and Shi Nansheng, who came hand in hand, and couldn't help but show a smile on his face.
"Brother Xu, I can't afford your praise, you are an old-timer, and there are still many things I have to learn." Xiao Jian said politely with a smile.
"Humility." Tsui Hark shook his head.
"That's it, it's too modest, this movie is very good, even I, a woman, feel a little enthusiastic after watching it, and..." Shi Nansheng on the side also spoke, and finally sighed for a while, before he smiled and quipped: "Lao Xu was full of praise for your work just now, you must know that there are not many people who can make him admire, and you are one of the only few people." ”
Looking at the two people in front of him, Xiao Jian shook his head with a smile, and didn't say anything more, it would be really too modest to talk about it at this time.
Not wanting to continue chatting on this topic, Xiao Jian changed the topic and asked, "By the way, Brother Xu, I don't know what you mean by my previous mention?" ”
Hearing this, Tsui Hark's face couldn't help but show hesitation, and Shi Nansheng on the side didn't speak, but the calm on his face had already told Xiao Jian a lot of information.
Before that, Xiao Jian had mentioned that he wanted to buy a stake or buy the special effects studio in Tsui Hark's hands, after all, he knew that the future would be the era of special effects, and in order to catch up with the trend or facilitate shooting, it was necessary for him to start a special effects company.
It's just that it seems to be hanging now, if the two of them were still a little moved at the beginning, then they sold 5 million Hong Kong dollars in two special effects shots of less than a minute, plus today's effect, whether it is a stake or an acquisition, I am afraid it will be difficult.
Looking at the two people who left, Xiao Jian couldn't help but shake his head, although the other party didn't say it explicitly, but the result was the same as he expected, but he didn't care much about it, to put it bluntly, he really didn't look down on the only special effects company in Hong Kong in this era, and his previous approach was just to save trouble.
"Now it seems that it is necessary to go to Hollywood and buy a special effects company in the future." Xiao Jian thought to himself. (To be continued.) )
