Chapter 520: Looking Forward to Cooperation
When Lin Qingxia saw the scene of butterflies killing people, she couldn't help but bow her head in fright and hid directly in Xu Guanwu's arms.
Although Xu Ke did not directly show the butterfly killing process, by shooting the bare skin of the tomb robbers and the close-ups of the butterfly's mouthparts that kept appearing, people made up the whole process of butterfly killing in their hearts.
This kind of "intriguing" shooting technique is really refreshing.
Seeing this, people already subconsciously thought that butterflies would definitely kill people, but after reading the eight pages of the Red Leaf Codex, the bookstore owner said that the eight Red Leaf Codex were fake, which made the butterfly killing incident confusing.
The subsequent chase in the barren grassland made people feel a solemn atmosphere.
The tall wild grass, the fierce chasers, and the panicked runners...... The light skills in martial arts novels are not shown, but they still make people feel a sense of urgency that their lives are hanging by a thread.
Finally, the runaway was caught up and killed, and Tian Feng, the owner of the ten-color flag of Tianzi, was introduced.
Through the dialogue between Bai Laoqi, the leader of the white number, and Hong Shi Niang, the red number, it can also be known that Tian Feng is a very ambitious gang leader.
They fought with rival gangs and won victories in several major theaters. However, when Tianzihao's territory was expanding and gaining momentum, Tian Feng slowed down the pace of expansion, and intervened as an arbiter to reconcile the contradictions of various factions.
Slowing down the pace of expanding the momentum is not that Tian Feng has no ambition, on the contrary, it is a great sign of his ambition. Because he is no longer satisfied with fighting and killing, but focuses on establishing his authority in the martial arts.
Although the so-called martial arts alliance leader has high martial arts, in fact, it is more important to have prestige. Tian Feng fought and killed for a lifetime. At best, it's just a titan. But it can win the hearts of all factions. can make him truly the first person in martial arts.
So when he learned that there was a butterfly murder incident in Shenjiabao, he led his men to investigate, the purpose of which was to take down Shenjiabao and become the stepping stone for him to reach the top of the martial arts alliance.
When Tian Feng first appeared, the shot was also very interesting. He was standing halfway up the mountain, the rocks behind him were pitch black, and there was a mist shrouded in them, giving people a strange and unpredictable feeling.
And the white-numbered Bai Laosan and the red-numbered Hong Shi Niang are in a conversation. The war zones that appear are also very interesting. It rarely appears in martial arts movies before and after. I don't know why Lu Dao Xu can be called that, is it affected by the war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party? !
Tian Feng led his men and horses to Shenjiabao, but on the way, he met the martial arts rookie Qingying.
In this episode, Xu Ke's unique way finally revealed some clues.
It turns out that the light skill that the green shadow relied on to become famous was achieved with the help of the power of the steel wire, so deconstructing the legendary light skill stunt can't help but make people feel absurd, but reasonable.
The actress who plays the role of the green shadow is Mi Xue, who was famous for starring in Huang Rong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Although "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is an indelible classic for mainland audiences, Huang Rong played by Weng Meiling is regarded as the most perfect Rong'er.
But in fact, Huang Rong played by Michelle in Hong Kong is the most acclaimed. Not only was it filmed several years earlier than Weng Meiling's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but the sensational impact it caused was also incomparable to the 83 version of the Condor Shooting. And Michelle also got a good name because of this TV series, called Qiao Huang Rong.
It's just that Michelle's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was filmed by Jiashi, and Jiashi also went bankrupt and went bankrupt subsequently, so this TV series was only released for a short period of time, and there was no chance to meet the domestic audience, so it made the younger Weng Meiling's version of Huang Rong more well-known, which is the sadness of the small company.
Tian Feng was willing to let Qing Yingzi accompany him for some reason, which is really a mystery in the movie. And the role of the green shadow in this film is also without a beginning and an end, she appeared in front of the audience abruptly, and the ending was blown up very abruptly, and there were all kinds of chaos in the middle, almost every scene had her appearance, but if there was no her, it would not have much impact on the story.
Xu Guanwu thought it was very strange when he watched this movie earlier, he saw the blue shadow suddenly appear at the beginning, and thought that she would be such a powerful character, but unfortunately the story did not show up until the ending.
Originally, Xu Guanwu thought that she would be a hidden boss, but in the end, she made a stupid dart and killed the thunder fire crow of the fire god Guo Li, but she was also killed by the gunpowder in the thunder fire crow, which is really a typical example of not being dead.
When the team came to Shenjiabao, Tian Feng began to plan the layout, laid down the net, and then led people into Shenjiabao.
In the lobby, because of the use of the camera, it feels as if someone is spying on them, but when the curtain is lifted, it is a huge statue of a dragon, with a hideous face and a bloody mouth, as if it wants to choose someone to eat.
Tian Feng, Qing Yingzi and the others stood in front of the dragon statue, but they looked a little small, as if they were already predicting the future ending.
And then someone reported that they had found the Tianzi person who had been sent to Shenjiabao three days ago, and everyone rushed to take a look, but saw that the person had died tragically, and his hands were densely covered with small holes, and at the same time, he was holding a butterfly in his hand, as if he had been bitten by a butterfly and died.
Later, he discovered the handmaid poem and discovered the secret passage hidden under Shenjiabao.
The servant girl Xiaoshi was deaf and dumb, at the beginning, Xu Guanwu saw her suddenly appear, and she was a weak female streamer, deaf and dumb, and guessed in her heart that she would be a hidden boss. Because according to the theorems in martial arts movies and mystery novels, the less likely a person is to be a murderer, the more likely he is to be a murderer. And the more people who seem to be incompetent in martial arts on the surface, it stands to reason that they are most likely to be hidden martial arts masters.
It's a pity that Xu Guanwu encountered Xu Ke, who played cards most unlogically, and the two hypothetical bosses before and after were miscalculated. Qingyingzi is indeed a newcomer to the rivers and lakes, and he doesn't know much about the rivers and lakes. And the servant girl Xiaoshi is indeed an honest and bullied weak woman, and these two people have not achieved a reversal after reaching the worst, which really makes Xu Guanwu very disappointed.
In the tunnel, Tian Feng met Shen Qing, the lord of Shenjiabao. Shen Qing's wife. And it has been mentioned many times before. Recently, the scholar Fang Hongye who suddenly rose in the martial arts.
Then Shen Qing explained the two butterfly killings before and after Shen Jiabao, and then he was killed by the butterfly, leaving a lot of mysteries.
When telling about the two butterfly murder incidents, the frequent appearance of butterflies is really terrifying, and the tragic appearance of Shen Qing, who was killed by butterflies, also makes people believe in the butterfly murder incident.
However, scholar Fang Hongye obviously had no other thoughts, so he kept looking for new clues in the bunker. And the ironclad man who appeared later, as well as several of Shen Qing's senior brothers. It also makes the story develop from a strange and unpredictable angle, which is really a bit confusing.
Fang Hongye and Qing Shadow discovered the arsenal hidden in the bunker, but on the ground, Tian Zihao was already fighting with Shen Qing's senior brothers.
Just after the end, Fang Hongye revealed the truth of the facts, it turned out that Shen Qing was not Shen Qing, but his original name was Yu Zhen, one of the four elephants of heaven and thunder, and he was also the person who researched and made the thunderbolt thunder bead musket.
The four elephants of heaven and thunder wanted to borrow the thunderbolt thunder bead musket to achieve the goal of dominating the rivers and lakes, so in order to be able to test successfully, they did not hesitate to let Yu Zhen cheat and die incognito. Came to the underground grottoes of Shenjiabao to develop secretly.
However, in the subsequent development process, Yu Zhen found that his every move was monitored by his senior brother. Let him feel that even if he made the Thunderbolt Ball Musket, the future may be miserable. So Yu Zhen secretly laid out, borrowed his wife's butterfly control technique, and directed a butterfly murder scam, taking the opportunity to remove the eyeliner sent by his senior brother to Shen Jiabao one by one.
Then he felt that he was unable to support himself, and he found Tian Feng, who is now ranked third in the martial arts and is booming, and used the strength of Tian Zihao to compete with his two senior brothers, while he himself watched from the wall, waiting for the two sides to flicker and be damaged, and then came out to clean up the overall situation, and wiped out Tian Zihao and Tianlei Castle.
After Fang Hongye exposed Yu Zhen's conspiracy, Shi Shiran left Shenjiabao. The rest of Tian Feng, Yu Zhen, and his senior brother began to fight to the death, just as Fang Hongye expected. The most dear did not get out of Shenjiabao, and even the green shadow did not survive.
At the end of the film, it ends with the Tianzi Red Flag and the corpses of all the people in Tianlei Castle, which makes people feel the impermanence of life and the cruelty of people in the troubled world like dogs.
……
After the film was screened, Xu Guanwu couldn't help but applaud Xu Ke.
Although this movie has such and such shortcomings, it is already a very remarkable work for Xu Ke, a young director, and it is very worthy of encouragement.
"Huh?! The screening is over? Lin Qingxia heard Xu Guanwu's applause, and suddenly woke up and asked Xu Guanwu in a daze.
"yes, what's wrong, you just fell asleep?" Xu Guanwu asked in surprise.
He was quite fascinated by it just now, and he didn't want to miss any shots, feeling that although Xu Ke had only made his first movie, his later style had already been revealed.
For example, the sharp editing makes people look faster and have higher martial arts; For example, the application of lens language for familiar faces makes people feel new all the time, etc.
"The plot is so boring, what a butterfly murder incident, so it's mysterious." Lin Qingxia pouted and said, "And the fight is not good-looking, it is not good at all." ”
Xu Guanwu was dumbfounded when he heard it, it is true that the fight scenes in "Butterfly Transformation" are very ugly, there are no weird and unpredictable magic skills, and there are no gorgeous special effects. Because almost all of the actors selected don't know kung fu, they give people a clumsy feeling of tossing and turning.
"Actually, the story is pretty good." Xu Guanwu smiled.
At this moment, the lights of the theater suddenly turned on, and Wu Siyuan and He Guanchang walked up to the stage, "Xie Lu, thank you for your encouragement, we held a cocktail party at Fuli Hotel at noon today, I hope everyone can enjoy your face." ”
"Ah Wu, are we going to the hotel yet?" When Lin Qingxia heard He Guanchang say this, she couldn't help but turn her head and ask Xu Guanwudao.
"You don't dare to drink, I can't drink, what kind of drinking party are you going to, let's go home and eat." Xu Guanwu smiled and said, got up and took Lin Qingxia to say goodbye.
But as soon as he took a few steps, he was surrounded by reporters.
"Mr. Xu, what do you think of this "Butterfly Change"?"
"Tell me what you think, how do you think this movie is better than "A Scheme"?"
"Mr. Xu, do you admire Director Xu Ke very much? Are you interested in asking him to film? ”
……
Xu Guanwu originally wanted to go home directly through the group of reporters, but when he heard the reporter ask, he couldn't help but stop again, "I think Director Xu Ke is a very talented director, although "Butterfly Change" has some flaws, it is not easy for new directors. So I'm very optimistic about his future development and hope to work with him one day. ”
After Xu Guanwu finished speaking, he didn't stay any longer, and helped Lin Qingxia to leave.
"Wow, Mr. Xu is optimistic about Xu Ke, the young director of Golden Harvest, and his evaluation is really high. Now there's news to write about. ”
"I wonder if this "Butterfly Change" directed by Xu Ke can be sold to the United States? If it can be as popular as "A Plan and Planning", we in Hong Kong will become internationally famous. ”
"Fool, "A Scheme" was filmed by Mr. Xu's company, and he is naturally willing to spend effort to promote it. "Butterfly Change" is a Golden Harvest movie, why should Mr. Xu help him? ”
"Doesn't Golden Harvest have its own channels? It's a shame. ”
Hearing what the reporters said, Wu Siyuan on the side couldn't help sighing, and He Guanchang next to him had a black face like the bottom of a black pot. (To be continued......)
