Lin Jing walked to the end of the red carpet, and there were two people waiting there, Cheng Long and Yuan Dart.
Behind the two of them, there is a huge poster. The content of the poster is based on the club in the movie, and the cartoon portraits of Cheng Long, Hong Xinbao and Yuan Dart are highlighted.
Lin Jing saw this exaggerated and slightly funny poster, and thought that the poster did clearly present the relationship between the three of them, a faintly formed iron triangle combination. And this combination of iron triangles will become a classic in the next films that the three will work together.
"Miss Lin, are you okay?"
"It's fine."
Lin Jing breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, she was able to come here without much effort, thanks to the help of Hong Xinbao and several staff members.
"They're coming up, Miss Lin, let's go in quickly." Cheng Long was about to say a few words, but when he saw the surging crowd behind him, he hurriedly said to Lin Jing, and together with Yuan Dart, he blocked behind Lin Jing.
It's crazy too!
Seeing this, Lin Jing nodded at them, then quickly quickened his pace and dodged into the movie theater.
In fact, if Lin Jing hadn't seen the opportunity to dodge quickly, I am afraid that she would have encountered a lot of "black hands".
"Sister, this way."
Inside the cinema, she saw her father, brother, and sister waiting for her at the top of the stairs.
Sitting down on the special seat, Lin Jing glanced around, many of them were familiar faces, but they were only nodding acquaintances with her, so they just said hello and didn't talk too much.
The acquaintances who participated in "Five Lucky Stars" last time, such as Li Saifeng, Ye Tong, and Zhong Chuhong, did not appear here.
Li Saifeng and Ye Tong did not appear, it is estimated that there is no time for filming, and Zhong Chuhong is likely to be related to Cheng Long.
Zhong Chuhong and Cheng Long became acquainted when they were filming "Five Lucky Stars", but long before this movie, Cheng Long had already become friendly with Lin Fengjiao. In Lin Jing's memory, Lin Fengjiao should have married him and gave birth to the name of the owner in December last year.
Maybe Zhong Chuhong noticed this, and then broke up with Cheng Long.
Thinking of this, Lin Jing glanced at Cheng Long, who was talking and laughing on the stage, and thought that Qian Zhongshu's words were indeed reasonable, the eggs were delicious, but the chicken that laid the eggs was still not to be recognized, otherwise it would only disappoint people in many cases.
The performance on the stage did not last long, and soon the iron triangle combination of Cheng Long, Hong Xinbao and Yuan Dart announced the official start of "Plan A".
The background of "Plan A" is Hong Kong, which has been open for a long time and has a prosperous economy at the beginning of the 20th century, attracting a large number of pirates.
The plot is not complicated, and it can even be said to be a bit old-fashioned: in order to combat piracy, the Hong Kong authorities have set up a special police team to take charge of maritime security. And the whole movie revolves around the story of how the marine policeman Ma Rulong (Jackie Chan), the 6th policeman Liu Tianci (Yuan Biao) and the thief Zhuo Yifei (Sammo Hung ) teamed up to defeat the pirate Luo Sanpao.
In fact, this movie has another very popular name, "The Story of Bandits at Sea"!
This "Plan A", from beginning to end, changes the witty action film in the early stage of Cheng Long, the kind of long and smelly action scenes of demolition moves, with the help of photographer Zhang Yaozu and editor Zhang Yaozong, with multi-shot and fast editing, so that the rhythm becomes clear and bright.
In fact, this is a feature of Cheng Long's movies after the middle period, the action scenes are thrilling and exciting, the literary drama is also full of jokes, there is no drag, and there is almost no low tide, and the whole film is full of unexpected comedy effects.
For example, the three most characteristic fight scenes in the whole film.
In the first scene, there was a chaotic battle between the marine police and the 6 police officers in the bar; In the second scene, Ma Rulong and Liu Tianci chased the wanted criminal Changsan in the rich club; In the third scene, the chase from the tavern to the street, from the alley of the main street, and from the alley back to the tavern, especially the bicycle street fight in this one, is amazing; In the fourth game, Luo Luo hit three shots.
The Yuanjiaban Iron Triangle above fought hard, and the audience below was of course laughing happily.
In fact, it was only from "Plan A" that Cheng Long formed the most distinctive feature of his films - very, very, very dangerous stunts.
In later generations, stunts have become a distinctive feature of "Cheng Long Movie".
Audiences come to see his films, in part because they want a fast-paced and fun experience. While the reality is that many movies are thrilling or comical (e.g., "The Five Lucky Stars"), Cheng Long's films give audiences a more unusual experience: the intense sensory stimulation of high risk.
And this characteristic thing of his is also shaking the hearts of the audience.
What is being shown on the big screen is the scene where Ma Rulong can't grasp the hand of the big clock, falls from a height of 5o feet, smashes through the double tent, and falls to the ground.
In an instant, most of the audience in the entire movie theater was gasping.
Is this true?
The height of 5o feet, converted to meters, is 15 meters. Falling from such a high place, although there are two tents in the middle to block it, I am afraid that I will fall half to death.
So the next moment, such a question lit up in their minds.
But the camera told them that it wasn't fake, and then they were in awe and burst into thunderous applause in amazement.
And in fact, this is indeed true.
According to Cheng Long's own account, he made many attempts when shooting this shot.
All the movie posters say that he is "fearless", but that, as Cheng Long himself puts it, is nothing more than propaganda, and anyone who thinks he hasn't been frightened when he does these stunts is even more naïve than he is.
When he tried, at the beginning, he used a bag of rice weighing dozens of catties and threw it where he needed to fall. As a result, the bag of rice passed through the cloth barrier and fell to the ground, breaking the bag and splashing the rice in all directions.
It made him feel terrified, but he was ready to fly.
So after many attempts, he mustered up the courage to prepare to go into battle himself, but this preparation took him six days, and each of these six days, each time he climbed to the top of the bell tower, hung it for a few minutes, and then let someone pull it up.
Until the seventh day, because the preparation time was too "long", so that the assistant director Hong Xinbao was tired of it, and Yuan Dart also thought that he didn't need to do it, "Plan A" had been shot very well, and there was no shortage of such a stunt shot, and persuaded him to delete this stunt shot.
But Hong Xinbao and Yuan Dart, the persuasion of a senior brother and a junior brother, instead made Cheng Long make up his mind to "jump", and one "jump" is to "jump" three times, shoot three sets of shots, and finally form a group of thrilling shots that the audience sees at the moment that make people stunned.
It can be said that Cheng Long's success is desperately returned!
If you don't talk about his problems with women, just talk about his achievements in movies, he is undoubtedly an admirable filmmaker.
Lin Jing thought so. (To be continued.) )
