"Nonsensical?!" Hong Jingbao and Mai Jia were stunned, and they didn't understand what Xu Guanwu meant.

Although it is a dialect of Cantonese, it will not be until the 90s that it really forms a cultural trend. The filmmakers represented by Wang Jing and Stephen Chow have integrated them into the movies they shoot have become a trend.

But the spoof and subversion of one of the core of nonsensical culture have actually shown signs as early as the seventies and eighties, such as this "Salted Fish Reborn", which can hit people until they suddenly spit out a battery; and Qin Pei, Jiang Dawei, and Er Dongsheng's "Owl", which is a big spoof of the previous "Chu Liuxiang's Bat Boy" played by Er Dongsheng.

Batboy became an owl boy, and he really wore an owl's mask over his head; Xiao Li Feidao turned into a tuberculosis ghost, and the lines were also very funny, "You have also heard that people are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves, Gu Long Chuyuan made me eat poison again, and eat antidote, poison, and detoxification, do you think I am beaten with iron?" also arranged a duel for me, if I don't play well and I'm afraid that the audience will boo, then how can I not get hurt? ”

As for the restaurant battle turning into a Western music concert, the ancients often popped up modern words such as "horses kill chickens", and when they hit the villain, they found that the original villain was a trick, all kinds of spoofs and subversions, even crazier than Stephen Chow and Wang Jinglai.

It's a pity that the idea is too avant-garde, in the eighties, no one appreciated this film at all, and the box office was dismal. If it was released in the 90s, even if there were not tens of millions, at least 10 million or 20 million would be indispensable.

"Nonsensical, that is, exaggerated, spoofed, subversive." Xu Guanwu saw that Hong Jingbao and Mai Jia both looked uncertain, and hurriedly explained with a smile, "It looks nonsense, ridiculous, and inexplicable, but it's fun." ”

"It's still too profound, what the hell?" Hong Jingbao scratched his head and said.

Xu Guanwu was very excited, knowing that he couldn't make sense with Hong Jingbao, in fact, even Mai Jia was at a loss for money. However, Zeng Zhiwei has a flexible mind, and he has already understood the comedic effect of spoofing and subversion early, and has already put it into practice.

In "Fat Dragon Crossing the River", at the beginning of the film, Hong Jingbao imitated Bruce Lee's appearance, a serious, righteous and awe-inspiring posture, "I tell you that this is my land, and you are not allowed to make trouble here." ”

The camera slid down, and a lot of pigs appeared, and it turned out that the big hero posed as a jiashi, and he was playing prestige on a group of pigs.

This will naturally have a subversive effect, and people can't help but laugh.

And in "Li Sanjiao's Shock to the Gate of Hell", Zeng Zhiwei made persistent efforts and brought the spoof and subversion to the extreme, to the point of breathtaking.

"Just wait until you go back and ask Zeng Zhiwei, he understands this more clearly." Xu Guanwu smiled, "Okay, it's late at night, let's go back and rest early." ”

Leaving the theater, Xu Guanwu took the car back home.

Although it was late at night, Zhao Yazhi still didn't sleep, lying on the sofa watching TV, waiting for Xu Guanwu to come home.

Hearing the sound of the car outside the door, Zhao Yazhi hurriedly jumped off the sofa and trotted to the door to greet her, "Ah Wu, you're back." ”

"yes, you haven't slept yet, and you're waiting for me? Didn't you say that if I come back late in the future, you will sleep alone. Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

"I have something to discuss with you." Zhao Yazhi said.

"What's the matter that made you stay up all night and wait until now?" Xu Guanwu asked strangely.

"There's something, something very important, you sit down, and I'll tell you slowly." Zhao Yazhi helped her husband take off his suit and hang it up, and pulled him to sit on the sofa.

"It looks really important, what the hell is going on, let's talk about it." Xu Guanwu sat on the sofa, looked at his wife and looked like he wanted to say something, and couldn't help asking.

"Well, that's the case, TVB wants to invite me back to shoot a TV series." Zhao Yazhi lowered her head and muttered in a low voice.

"What?!" Xu Guanwu was stunned for a moment and asked loudly.

"TVB wants to ask me to make a TV series." Zhao Yazhi muttered again.

"Do you want to make a TV series?" Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be silent for a while.

Although Zhao Yazhi still plays a role in the movies of the Xu Brothers Company from time to time, most of them are only a few minutes, ten minutes of scenes, two or three days of filming, at most a week can be completed, so it has no impact on the daily life of the couple.

But if you go to TVB to shoot a TV series, it's two different things.

Making a TV series is not like making a movie. A movie lasts a total of one and a half hours and takes two months to shoot, and even the leading actor with the most scenes will not feel too hard during the filming process.

But a TV series always has twenty or thirty episodes, and it is popular now to shoot and broadcast on the spot. Because of the rush to shoot the schedule, every actor in the play is rotated continuously, and several episodes of scenes are filmed a day, and it is common not to sleep for two or three days.

I think that in order to compete with Li's TVB, the whole station rushed to shoot "Chu Liuxiang", and the starring Zheng Shaoqiu was tired of liver disease. As soon as the filming was over, he went directly to the hospital, which was like filming with his life.

Moreover, Zhao Yazhi is filming in her own company, and the treatment is naturally super-first-class, and the scenes of hugging and hugging and kissing are also deleted to the point that they can no longer be deleted, and they can also use stand-ins as a last resort, which will not make the boss Xu Guanwu embarrassed.

But if you want to film in someone else's company, how can people pay so much attention? At that time, there will naturally be scenes of hugging and hugging, and there may even be bed scenes, what does Xu Guanwu think?

"How tiring it is to shoot TV, if you are bored at home and want to find something to do, then I will open a drama for you, how about it?" Xu Guanwu thought about it, looked at Zhao Yazhi and said with a smile.

"Don't, make a movie for me, in case you can't make money, big brother they will have opinions. Besides, I didn't get it by my own efforts, and I don't want it. Zhao Yazhi shook her head and said.

"Then how about coming to the company to do things, I'll give you a vice president." Xu Guanwu suggested again.

"Don't, I hate sitting in the office the most, reading documents and signing them, and I have to pretend to be blackface to teach people, and be poked in the back by people." Zhao Yazhi shook her head again and said.

"If you say that, I'm not always scolded as a manager." Xu Guanwu was speechless for a while, "Ah Zhi, I'm very tired from filming TV series, I shoot more than 20 episodes in one go, and I don't have enough time to sleep every day." Our family is not short of that money, how good is it to enjoy Qingfu at home? ”

"It's annoying to be alone at home all day." Zhao Yazhi pouted and said, "Besides, the producer told me, that TV series only has ten episodes, and there are five starring actors in total, and my roles add up to only more than fifty minutes, and it will be done in two or three days at most." You'll just let me go, okay? ”

"It really only takes two or three days?!" Xu Guanwu asked with a frown.

"That's what the producer said." Zhao Yazhi nodded.

"Do you really want to go?" Xu Guanwu asked again.

"yes, it's boring to stay at home alone." Zhao Yazhi said.

"Well, in that case, then you can go. But remember, we have three chapters of the covenant before. Xu Guanwu said.

"I know, this drama is youthful and inspirational, don't think about it so much." Zhao Yazhi gently poked Xu Guanwu's forehead and said.

"It would be best if I thought about it too much." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

"By the way, how was the midnight test screening of the movie today, and did the audience react well?" Zhao Yazhi asked with a smile again.

"It's not bad, I laughed dozens of times, and after it was over, many people stood up and applauded." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.

"Good! Congratulations, another million box office has entered your pocket. Zhao Yazhi clapped her hands and smiled.

"It's only one or two million Hong Kong dollars, how high can it be. Make money by making these movies, and only in time can you develop? Xu Guanwu waved his hand

Now a blockbuster movie in Hong Kong is only one million, and ten years later, Hong Kong movies do not have a box office of 20 million, and they are not qualified to be blockbusters.

At that time, it was the golden age of Hong Kong films, and it was the era of filmmakers making shark fin rice.

"You are not satisfied with one or two million, many people want to make a movie with a box office of hundreds of thousands, and they are all worried." Zhao Yazhi smiled, "You think everyone is as rich as you." ”

Xu Guanwu couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
