Chapter 252: Chen Ping'an's Film Review
""Dragon and Tiger" is excellent as an undercover movie. Not only because it redefines the concept of "undercover", but also shapes the image of undercover as flesh and blood, and even as the bandits, so that this sense of opposition between "black and white, good and evil" is no longer so extreme, but examines ...... from another angle"
"Dragon and Tiger" has opened a cold and realistic Hong Kong film mode, the film style is tough and realistic, the story is full of twists and turns, the plot is relaxed, and the characters are full and powerful, and this film is also a classic of Hong Kong realistic police films......"
Following "Bloody Heroes", the two major actors, Zhou Yunfa and Li Xiuxian, teamed up again to co-star in "Dragon and Tiger". In the rare masterpiece "Dragon and Tiger", Li Xiuxian changed his normal way to play a bandit, and Zhou Yunfa played an undercover policeman, which is diametrically opposed to "Bloody Heroes", but it is as wonderful as "Bloody Heroes......"
"Another new director star is rising, and the new art city has reaped the rewards of Lin Lingdong!"
""Dragon and Tiger", the new art city reproduces its brilliant work!"
In the movie "Dragon and Tiger", Zhou Yunfa has an extremely wide range of drama and wonderful performances. The portrayal of the tragic life and fate of the undercover agent makes the movie very tragic and infectious. The friendship established by mutual appreciation in the robbery gang is more humane than the interpersonal relationship in the seemingly large police system, and it is also the film's spicy satire on people and society......"
In the small conference room of Xinyi City, Xu Jinheng had a thick stack of newspapers in front of him, all of which were newly baked today, and he still held one in his hand, which he read with relish. The above are all comments about "Dragon and Tiger", and I praise this movie, the two leading actors, director Lin Lingdong and Xinyicheng. In particular, "Cheng Pao" spared no effort to paste a word of praise on the new art city, and the words "Dragon and Tiger" marked the re-emergence of the super new art city.
Seeing Lin Jianyue walking into the office with a sigh, Xu Jinheng threw the newspaper in his hand over: "Look at it, it's all today's newspaper." ”
"I'll just say that Adong won't let us down." Looking at the report on "Dragon and Tiger" in the newspaper, Lin Jianyue smiled, "I really want to see Chen Ping'an's expression when he sees today's newspaper." It's a pity that "Prison Storm" was bought by him. ”
"If you were asked to pay a million, would you be willing to buy it?" Yang Zhicheng's voice came from the door, and the two walked into the small conference room accompanied by Yu Cheng.
Lin Jianyue hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said, "Although I don't look down on Chen Ping'an, I have to admire his courage. Buy a script for a million, let alone me, I'm afraid the whole of Hong Kong can't find such a loser. ”
"Loser? If "Prison Storm" is released and the box office exceeds 20 million, do you still think so? If there was no script contest, the script of "Prison Storm" would be in our hands now! Also, how much money did you think Chen Ping'an spent on that script contest? Didn't see so many ads at the awards ceremony? He's a loser...... I think he's a worthy opponent. ”
Seeing that Lin Jianyue's face was not good-looking, Yang Zhicheng changed his words and said: "Dayue, before you take over the family business, having an opponent like him will definitely benefit you a lot." If you can defeat Chen Ping'an, you will definitely be able to add a lot of points in front of your old man. ”
The effect of a sentence is often inseparable from the person who said it.
If Xu Jinheng had said this, Lin Jianyue would definitely not have thought so, but Yang Zhi's achievements would have been different. He and Xu Jinheng are still the rich second generation in the entrepreneurial stage, and Yang Zhicheng has become the rich second generation who has made brilliant achievements.
In particular, Lin Jianyue knew that his father was also interested in the entertainment industry, and recently began to contact Qiu Degen and enjoyed the subscription of part of ATV's equity. Otherwise, he wouldn't have heard that he wanted to acquire Xinyicheng, so he only considered providing him with enough funds for three days.
"Don't worry, I know it." Lin Jianyue nodded, "But our "Dragon and Tiger" this time has a good reputation, and it is estimated that the box office will not be bad." ”
"Golden Harvest's "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" also has a good reputation, and the venue was full yesterday, so don't be complacent because of a little achievement." Yang Zhicheng mentioned a sentence and asked Xu Jinheng, "What do you say about "God of Gamblers" above?" ”
"I haven't looked at it yet."
Xu Jinheng came to the company early in the morning and asked the secretary to buy dozens of newspapers, and he read them one after another, mainly to read the evaluation of "Dragon and Tiger" in the newspaper.
Since they entered the new art city, they have shot several movies, although each of them makes money, but not to mention that it is not enough with Dark Horse International, even compared with the new art city in the era of the Big Three in Mecca.
These wealthy sons have a glamorous side and a torturous side. If you want to inherit the family's huge business, or gain the trust of the old man in the family, and gain more say, you must make achievements.
The acquisition of Xinyicheng to set foot in the film industry is not only to make money and play with women, but also a way for the elders of the clan to prove themselves.
Although "Dragon and Tiger" only premiered yesterday, the effect is extraordinary, whether it is the newspaper reviews this morning or the reaction of the audience last night, which is a testament to the success of the film.
As for Dark Horse International's "God of Gamblers", he has no time to watch it, and second, he doesn't think Chen Ping'an can make any new tricks in gambling films.
Yang Zhicheng is very clear about what kind of sensation "God of Gamblers" caused by the audience at the same time last night, including the newspaper's evaluation of "God of Gamblers", and Yu Cheng reported to him on the phone early this morning.
"God of Gamblers" is a commercial film - the pinnacle of commercial films!"
"God of Gamblers", the first film that really deifies "gambling". ”
"Gamblers who are addicted to gambling are portrayed in a positive light, and shameful cheats come into their hands to become subtle and elegant dazzling stunts. The image of the God of Gambling played by Zhou Yunfa is very kingly supreme, and it is difficult to match gambling films in the past. ”
"The pinnacle of Hong Kong gambling films, the deification treatment is a new river, and it is difficult to compare with gambling films in the past!"
"God of Gamblers is definitely the pinnacle of Hong Kong gambling films, and apart from that, there are almost no films of the same genre that can be equal to it. The film has a strong subversive significance, few commercial blockbusters dare to let the actor play an idiot most of the time, Chow Yun-fat plays the God of Gamblers more than half of the scenes are playing fools, but as soon as Gao Jin returns to the gambling table, he can still be powerful as soon as he eats a few pieces of chocolate, such a perfect acting skill is doomed to the success of "God of Gamblers" in advance. ”
The newspaper's evaluation of "God of Gamblers" is no worse than that of "Dragon and Tiger", and it is overwhelmingly praised. It is believed that this movie has completely subverted the impression of previous gambling films in the audience's mind, and the gambler who is addicted to gambling has been portrayed as a positive image, which is definitely beyond the audience's expectations. For a commercial film, it is really rare to achieve such a reputation.
Although it was only a premiere, judging from the comments in the newspaper, Chen Ping'an created another miracle, and the gambling film was saved by him.
Yishu's comments reveal why the film is so revered:
"God of Gamblers" is not actually based on gambling, but mainly about a person who has suffered repeated setbacks and still struggles with perseverance. Chen Ping'an gathers extremely rich dramatic elements such as family, love, brotherhood, gunfights, actions, deified gambling skills, and personality splits caused by amnesia in the story. ”
Of course, as a traditional Chen Ping'an Hei, in the midst of applause, it is naturally indispensable for the questioning voice of "Sing Tao Daily".
"Sing Tao Daily" pointed out that gambling has always been one of the stubborn public security diseases that plague the Hong Kong police, and Chen Ping'an's "God of Gamblers" has positively portrayed the image of gamblers, and it has been sublimated to the level of "god", which is tantamount to encouraging gambling in disguise and should be criticized. They called on Hong Kong citizens to boycott the film to prevent themselves or their relatives and friends from being exposed to gambling.
There are few supporters of the "Sing Tao Daily" report, and more are skeptical voices, believing that they are purely picky in the egg.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon, isn't it normal for a family to reunite and play mahjong? As for the color head...... Who plays uncolored mahjong? Regardless of whether this sentence is correct or not, at least in the hearts of the vast majority of citizens, it is a wise saying.
The black of "Sing Tao Daily" did not have an effect this time, but attracted many citizens to the theater to watch "God of Gamblers".
If there is still a small controversy in the media about "God of Gamblers" directed by Chen Ping'an, then for Zhou Yanfa's acting skills, the media will definitely praise and praise him.
Zhou Yanfa's comedic talent in "God of Gamblers" is a highlight of this film. After amnesia, the childlike innocence and stupidity are diametrically opposed to the kingly spirit of the gambling god, but they complement each other, which is really wonderful. ”
is not only in "God of Gamblers", Zhou Yanfa's childlike innocence and stupidity and diametrically opposed kingly demeanor are convincing, but the undercover agent he played in "Dragon and Tiger" vividly shows the inner world of the undercover agent in front of the world.
The sentence at the end of "Dragon and Tiger" "It's good if you kill me, while there is still time, hurry up if you want to kill me, this is what I owe you", the feelings contained in Zhou Yanfa's sentence moved countless people. As an undercover agent, the brotherhood between him and the gangster played by Lee Xiu-hyun is unforgettable.
Even Chen Ping'an wrote a film review and published it in the "Oriental Daily".
This is the first time Chen Ping'an has written a film review, and the center of the review is not "God of Gamblers" and "Dragon and Tiger", but Zhou Yunfa himself.
“…… The two movies were released at the same time, both movies are rare masterpieces, Zhou Yunfa's wonderful performances in the two movies created three completely different but equally convincing screen images, which feasted the audience's eyes at the same time, but also pushed him from a human being to a god, and since then has completely opened his era - he is Zhou Yunfa, a fairy hair belonging to Hong Kong people! ”R1152
