Chapter 425: Royal Senior Sister

H2> In Hong Kong, before director Zhang Cheda filmed "One-Armed Knife", actresses have always had box office appeal than male stars. At that time, Ling Bo, Lin Dai, Lettie, etc. were all famous for their popularity in Huangmei movies and song and dance films, not only in Hong Kong, but also in Taiwan and Nanyang.

When the crew of "Liang Zhu" went to Taiwan to do publicity, it attracted 200,000 Taipei citizens to welcome them, and the grand occasion was unprecedented, even Han Jin did not have that kind of treatment.

But in the 70s, with the advent of Zhang Che's "One-Armed Knife", a masculine martial arts film was set off. Superstars such as Wang Yu, Di Long, Bruce Lee, and Hui Guanwen have come out one after another, creating a trend of male-dominated Hong Kong films, while female characters have gradually been marginalized and become dispensable vases.

seems to be a martial arts film directed by director Zhang Cheda, the strong ink is always the righteousness of the hot-blooded man, and the female characters have become the foil.

In Bruce Lee's movies, female characters are also dispensable vases, even Miao Kewei's role is not outstanding, and people like to watch thrilling fight scenes.

In Xu Guanwen's comedies, the most brilliant is always the three brothers, and the female characters are just vases. It seems that in "Half a Pound and Eight Taels", Zhao Yazhi is nominally the heroine, but there are only a dozen lines at most, and she is completely a dispensable character.

In 82, Golden Harvest once invested in the filming of the movie "Colorful Lin Yazhen" starring the famous actress Xiao Fangfang, but the result was a loss to death. Wu Yusen was also expelled from Jiahe because of this, and fell into a situation where there was no film to shoot.

Because of this, Hong Kong film companies are not very interested in investing in female-led films, for fear of losing money.

Although Lin Qingxia is the first beauty in Taiwan, she is also a box office superstar of literary films, and Qin Han, Qin Xianglin, and Lin Fengjiao are called "Erqin Erlin". But at this time and again, now Taiwanese literary films have died, and the box office is extremely bleak.

Although Lin Qingxia is still worth and has box office appeal, the box office of "I Love Night Fragrance" and "Gentleman" are all good, but she has not been wronged to create a movie specifically for her. After all, Lin Qingxia is not like Yang Ziqiong, who has the rich Pan Disheng to pay for her.

Therefore, when they heard Han Jin say that he wanted to star in a movie dominated by female characters, the first reaction of the three people present was to shake their heads and sigh.

Han Jin's construction is very good, and anyone knows that if a movie is dominated by female characters, then it will definitely be female characters who are brilliant. It's like the "Overlord Flower" series is brilliant with Hu Huizhong and Wu Junru; The outstanding ones in "Dao Ma Dan" are Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong and Ye Qianwen, Zheng Haonan, Zhang Guoqiang, etc. are only supporting roles; "Royal Senior Sister" is popular with Yang Ziqiong and Yang Lijing.

But the point is that Hong Kong filmmakers are now reluctant to invest in female-led films, so Han Jin is tantamount to saying a well-known nonsense, unless......

"Ah Jin, are you planning to ask Qingxia to star in a movie with women as the main characters?" Shi Nansheng suddenly asked with a smile.

Han Jin smiled, "Miss Shi is worthy of being very intelligent, that's right, I do have this idea." ”

Lin Qingxia couldn't help but be stunned when she heard it, she just heard Han Jin say that she wanted to ask herself to film, and thought he was saying polite words, but she didn't expect him to really have such a plan, and she couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised.

"Ah Jin, you are really fast-talking, you just met Qingxia, you already have an idea?" Xu Ke smiled and asked, "How about you tell me your thoughts and let me have a long experience?" ”

Han Jin smiled, "Director Xu, you stumbled me again, you are a good man in the film field, I am just a layman." ”

"Don't be modest, who in Hong Kong doesn't know that you are a famous talent. Come, tell me about it. Xu Ke continued to ask.

Han Jin was not afraid that Xu Ke would plagiarize his ideas, so he explained the concept of "Royal Senior Sister" again.

"Royal Sister" created a precedent for Hong Kong women's action films, adding a bright color to the field of male-dominated Hong Kong action films.

Since then, many action movies with actresses such as "Senior Sister" and "Female General" have been born in Hong Kong movies, making Yang Ziqiong, Luo Flo, Hu Huizhong, Li Saifeng and other female stars very popular.

After Xu Ke heard Han Jin's idea, he couldn't help but be a little surprised. The subject matter must be very interesting to tell him. Now men are indeed kings in the field of action movies, such as Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, Yuan Biao, Xu Guanjie, etc. are all popular superstars in the field of action movies. But female characters have always been vase-like characters in the male-dominated action movie field.

If we do the opposite now, and remake an action movie starring a woman, it will definitely be fresh and interesting for those who are tired of watching it.

Lin Qingxia couldn't help but be a little moved when she heard Han Jin's words, she knew that she was old now, she was born in 1954, she is thirty-one years old this year, and let her play the role of an innocent girl, even if the audience doesn't get tired of watching it, she herself is numb.

Not to mention that there are too many beautiful little flowers waiting to be on top in the Hong Kong film industry now, everyone is younger than her, purer than her, and more beautiful than her, even if Lin Qingxia is unwilling to give up, sooner or later she will be topped. Therefore, changing course has become something she must do now.

If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be long!

Hong Kong now has two hottest themes, one is comedy, the other is action movies, and of course, the most popular is action movies with comedy elements.

Lin Qingxia has acted in comedies such as "I Love Night Fragrance" and "Gentleman" before, and in good conscience, with her appearance, playing the role of a vase in it is more than rich, but she can't let go of her hands and feet at all when she plays comedies.

Xiao Fangfang played Lin Yazhen, wearing thick glasses like glass bottles, pretending to be a silly eldest sister to make people laugh; Wu Junru acted in a comedy, she had to be forced to pick her nose in front of the camera, and she had to take the initiative to force a man, and a girl who was originally very thoughtful was forced to pretend to be an ugly girl. gained dozens of pounds, and her boyfriends left her; Yuan Qiongdan acts in comedies, all of which are the kind of roles such as old bustards and flowers, and only by being contemptuous can they make people laugh; Mao Xianyun acted in comedies, and he could be as strong as "Dominatrix", with a scar on his face and a large patch of black hair on his legs; Mo Wenwei made comedies, and she also pretended to be an ugly woman to chase Zhou Xingchi......

In comparison, Lin Qingxia has been acting in comedies all the time, and she can't let go of her star shelf. Zhou Botong played by Liu Jialing in "East Becomes West" can touch a man's chest like spring, so that she is just a supporting role, but she is very brilliant.

Compared with the three princesses played by Lin Qingxia throughout the whole process, in fact, they have always been brushing their faces, and all the funny scenes have been divided by Liang Wei, Zhang Xueyou, Liu Jialing, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Guorong, etc. Even Ye Yuqing, who plays a small supporting role, is much more eye-catching than her.

Throughout all the comedies that Lin Qingxia has participated in in her acting career, she has always maintained the appearance of a stunning beauty, and most of the funny scenes are taken on by other roles. So if you want her to take the comedy route, it is even more difficult.

In this way, only making action movies is the most suitable route for her. There are outrageously few female action movies now, and Lin Qingxia can just fill this gap. At that time, with her fame and the hot trend of action movies, it will not be difficult to achieve a high box office in Hong Kong and even Nanyang.

"Okay, there must be something going on with this theme." Xu Ke clapped his hands and smiled, "Ah Jin, I'll just say that you are amazing, I didn't expect that there was really a set." ”

"Qingxia, Ah Jin's idea is really good, you might as well consider it." Shi Nansheng also said with a smile.

Han Jin also smiled at Lin Qingxia, "Miss Lin, I don't know if you're interested?" ”

Lin Qingxia smiled and nodded, "Mr. Han, this idea of yours is very good, I am indeed very interesting to participate." ”

"That's great, in that case, let's settle it. I immediately arranged for someone to write the script, but I don't know when Miss Lin will have a schedule? Han Jin asked with a smile.

"I'm still filming Cheng Long's "Police Story", and I don't know exactly when it will be finished." Lin Qingxia replied honestly.

Cheng Long has always been striving for perfection in making movies, especially this "Police Story" is his transformation work, so he is even more strict. It's been three months since the Chinese New Year started, but it's far from the time to finish.

"Well, if that's the case, that's fine." Han Jin thought for a while and said, "It's not easy for actresses to make action movies, especially for actresses like Miss Lin who are halfway home. Because the most important thing in an action movie is to fight the scene, and if the fight is not exciting, then the movie will lose a lot of points. ”

"Even if there will be a stand-in in our movie, some action scenes have to be played by the actors themselves. As long as you start to do it, it will inevitably be injured, so I hope that Miss Lin can use this time to practice kung fu well. Although you are not required to be a martial arts master, at least there is that heroic flavor in your gestures. Han Jin said to Lin Qingxia.

Lin Qingxia also nodded, knowing that it was not easy to make action movies. Like Cheng Long's "Police Story" from the start of filming to the present, there have been no less than ten Dragon and Tiger martial artists who have been injured and hospitalized, and they have fallen one by one and suffered from serious illnesses such as fractures, bone cracks, and concussions. As for cuts, bruises, abrasions, sprains and other skin injuries, they all grit their teeth and endure them.

There is a saying that "minor injuries do not get off the line of fire", Lin Qingxia often sees those martial artists who have been beaten with blue noses and swollen faces, and bruises all over their bodies, which is very scary. Although Lin Qingxia dared to dedicate herself to art, she was still quite afraid of letting her suffer so many crimes.

"Qingxia, it's really dangerous to make action movies, if you really want to take the action route, you have to make up your mind." Shi Nansheng looked at Lin Qingxia worriedly.

Although Lin Qingxia is still beautiful now, she is already a thirty-year-old woman after all. Now let her practice martial arts again and loosen her muscles and bones, it is a little too cruel.

Lin Qingxia nodded, "Don't worry, sister, I can endure hardship." ”

"Yes, that's good." Shi Nansheng patted Lin Qingxia's hand, "Be careful." ”

"Miss Lin, are you looking for a coach by yourself, or will I help you find it?" Han Jin asked with a smile again.

Lin Qingxia was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "It's better for you to find it for me, Mr. Han, I don't know the place in Hong Kong, I'm afraid that I can't find a suitable coach, and I won't be able to meet the needs of making movies at that time." ”

Han Jin nodded, "That's fine, then I'll introduce my senior brother to you." He was referring to Cheng Xiaodong, the martial arts instructor of "Modern Cinderella".

Cheng Xiaodong was one of Lin Qingxia's Bole in his previous life, and designed a martial arts action for her, which made Lin Qingxia, who had long sleeves fluttering, like a fairy.

Moreover, his movements are elegant, flowing smoothly, and he does not pay attention to the dismantling of one move and one style, such a martial arts design is different, and it also saves the actor a lot of hard work.

Because of the dismantling of one move and one style, if you want to shoot well, you must punch the flesh. How many punches can a woman like Lin Qingxia withstand?! On the contrary, if it is like the "dance movement" designed by Cheng Xiaodong, it will be as beautiful as dancing, with both visual effects and low danger, which is just suitable for people like Lin Qingxia who are halfway home.

"Your senior brother?!" Xu Ke and Lin Qingxia couldn't help but be stunned.

"Oh, it's Mr. Cheng Xiaodong, the famous martial artist of TVB." Han Jin explained with a smile again. r1152
