215 Huashan on the Sword

Investing in films, but also shooting commercials?

Yuan Yang'an suddenly became interested.

Now he has a kind of confidence in Zhou Wenqiang's commercials.

Although "Lying World" is excellent, even the most demanding film critics believe that the commercial film at the front of the film adds a lot to the film, and the shooting skills and exquisite pictures that surpass this era are vividly expressed in this commercial film that is only a few minutes long, and even played a role in driving the box office.

"Wen Qiang, don't you want to invest in a martial arts movie?"

Looking at the "Ming Pao" in front of him, Yuan Yangan was a little expectant, but also a little worried.

Before Shao Yifu returned to Hong Kong to establish the Shaw Brothers Film Company and hired famous martial arts directors such as Hu Jinquan and Zhang Che, Hong Kong Island was not without martial arts movies. Shao Laoer's 'father-son company' established on Hong Kong Island has filmed a lot of martial arts movies, "Fang Shiyu and Miao Cuihua" and "Burning Shaolin Temple" are among the masterpieces.

However, in the Hong Kong Island film industry, which is dominated by Fengyue literary films and Cantonese films, most of these martial arts movies are small productions. In the eyes of famous choreographers and directors, it is simply a work that is just bad money, and it is even better than an opera film that is directly put on the screen.

It is conceivable that in this era when there are no computer stunts and no professional martial arts team has been established, the so-called martial arts movies are similar to children's plays, and many actors' skills are not as good as opera actors.

Although he knew that Zhou Wenqiang was very rich, Yuan Yangan, the big brother, couldn't bear to watch his money go down the drain.

"Brother Yuan, I know what you're worried about, but in fact, you don't have to worry about it."

Zhou Wenqiang said with a smile: "With the popular serialization of the Condor Divine Condor, coupled with the renewal of this Heaven and Dragon Slayer, the popularity of the Condor Trilogy has always been very high. According to my statistics, there are at least more than 500,000 loyal readers on Hong Kong Island. ”

"This movie is the essence of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", called Huashan on the Sword. Not only do you have to shoot in full color, but you also need to shoot in two or even three cameras, so I've ordered a new color camera and I'll be in Hong Kong in a week. ”

"Wen Qiang, you ordered another color camera? Also three-camera shooting! ”

Yuan Yangan only felt dizzy for a while, and said in his heart, if you get another color camera, my life will not be over?

"Brother Yuan doesn't have to worry, I will invest 50,000 Hong Kong dollars in this "Huashan on the Sword" to create a big cast and a big production. In addition, Condor itself is a big IP, and the box office will surpass "Lying World" just around the corner. ”

Zhou Wenqiang thought for a while and said: "The current decline of martial arts movies on Hong Kong Island is not because of the problem of martial arts themes, but because there is no big IP to rely on. In addition, most of the actors have no kung fu foundation, and the filming is like a child's play, and the effect is certainly not good. This time, I will check all aspects such as writers, directors, and actors to shoot a great work that is 20 years ahead of the times! ”

"In addition, I will personally play the protagonist Guo Jing, and Huang Rong will be played by Xiaomeng. In addition, please ask my senior brother Ip Man to play Emperor Duan, Hongquan Grandmaster Hong Zhennan to play Hong Qigong, West Poison Ouyang Feng will be played by a national art master named Jinshan in my company, Baihemen Wu Zhong will play Zhou Botong, and Mr. Gossip Xingyimen Gonger will play Yinggu ......"

Ip Man, Hong Zhennan, Wu Zhong?

Yuan Yangan was directly stunned.

These are all well-known masters of national arts on Hong Kong Island, and with these people co-starring, it is guaranteed to be full of gimmicks...... This is what Brother Zhou said about the big cast?

Good guy, that is, Brother Zhou, has changed to another producer, who has the ability to invite these national art masters?

As for what big IP, he has never heard of it, anyway, he doesn't know how to do it, and he's embarrassed to ask more......

Xia Meng stuffed two prawn dumplings in her mouth, her eyes sparkled, she heard it clearly just now, Huang Rong will be played by her!

Finally going to be the main character!

Since she joined the Great Wall Film Company, in addition to showing her head once in the advertising film of Wang Laoji herbal tea, she has not yet been able to show her own works, and she is still an authentic newcomer, and she is about to go crazy if she wants to be the protagonist!

Now it's a big cast, a big IP, and a big production with an investment of 50,000 Hong Kong dollars...... Fools know that whoever is on this kind of movie can be popular! What's more, she is also a loyal fan of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and she likes the bright and agile pretty Huang Rong in the book very much.

What makes her happiest is that Zhou Wenqiang is going to star in her 'Brother Jing', which is a very good opportunity.

In fact, Xia Meng has already figured it out, and he has to fight for his own happiness!

What's so great about Bai Yue, if you want to say that she knew Brother Zhou earlier than her! used to be petty with Zhou Wenqiang, but it was just a girl's feelings, but he was not really angry.

"Brother Zhou, thank you for giving me the opportunity. Then we can decide, the role of Huang Rong is mine! ”

Xia Meng smiled at Zhou Wenqiang, and his previous suspicions were relieved.

"Why, you're finally willing to smile at me?"

Zhou Wenqiang laughed and said: "That's right, now you only have a little bit of a pretty Huang Rong." ”

Yuan Yangan peeked at Zhou Wenqiang and Xia Meng, and was also secretly happy for the children, and said with a smile: "Wenqiang, your Rong'er has it, did you ignore the 'old father-in-law'?" The other three of the four uniques in the world are available, what about the actor of Huang Laoxi? ”

"The actor of the East Evil must not only have kung fu, but more importantly, he must have a good fight, be able to play a role, and be handsome enough in terms of image......"

Zhou Wenqiang said with a smile: "There is a famous mainland singer named Yu Zhanyuan, who should have come to Hong Kong Island a few years ago, and he is suitable for playing the East Evil in terms of image and skills." Brother Yuan often deals with people in the opera industry, I don't know if I have heard his name? ”

"Is that him?"

Yuan Yangan nodded when he heard this: "Master Yu and Fan Juhua are both quite famous in the Hong Kong Island film industry, but the two of them have cooperated more with the Shao family's 'Father and Son Pictures', and they have not cooperated with us yet." 'Father & Son Pictures' is still our competitor......"

"It doesn't matter, Master Yu and Fan Chrysanthemum are both famous singers of the generation, at most they only cooperate with the Shao family, and they can't be their contracted actors. Since the Shao family and the Great Wall are in competition, then you don't have to be polite, just dig their corners. ”

Zhou Wenqiang smiled: "As a sign of respect, I will personally invite these two celebrities." Pink Chrysanthemum is just right for playing Mei Chaofeng, and with the two of them joining, this drama is perfect. ”

Yu Zhanyuan and Fan Chrysanthemum are both famous, one is a generation of grandmasters who taught the 'Seven Little Blessings' to influence Hong Kong Island kung fu movies for 30 years.

One is that the fan class was later established, and taught Lin Zhengying, Xiao Fangfang, Zunlong, Luo Jiaying and other film bigwigs.

As long as these two are grasped in their hands, what will be the Seven Little Blessings and Fan Family Class in the future, and they will not all be dishes in the bowl sooner or later?

However, these two celebrities are old-fashioned people, and they talk about the word 'rites' the most, since they have a friendship with the Shao family, it is still a little difficult for the Great Wall to invite them, so Zhou Wenqiang decided to go out in person.

"Brother Yuan, I will hand over the script to you as soon as possible. To tell you the truth, this "Huashan on the Sword" has a lot to do with me, I hope it can be started and released as soon as possible, and the crew will trouble you in preparing these things. ”

Yuan Yangan said curiously: "Brother Zhou, what you said has a great relationship, could it be the relationship between "Lying World" and Wang Laoji herbal tea commercials?" By the way, the new commercial you just mentioned, I don't know what the content is, martial arts dramas don't seem to be suitable for commercial advertising, right? ”

"Hehe, it's a secret. After I say it, Brother Yuan, you have to keep it a secret for the time being. ”

Zhou Wenqiang said with a smile: "This commercial is not for advertising a certain product, but for the TV station I am about to build......

"TV station?"

Yuan Yangan and Xia Meng were stunned, both of them had the same idea as Jin Yong at the beginning, and now there are not even a few TVs on Hong Kong Island, can they really run a TV station?
