Chapter 181: A New Version of Ip Man
Home Alone was released on Christmas Day and lasted until December 31, cutting off more than 30 million US dollars at the box office in North America in eight days, and the horror data is catching up (never compromise)!
But (uncompromising) it was really the movie that came into reality, and it had such a linkage and sensational effect, blasting out the prologue of the blockbuster that started with 30 million, the home alone, it was a family carnival, and it was released at the best schedule for this movie, so that there was this crazy record.
North America broke 30 million US dollars in eight days, more than 27 million US dollars in eight days in Europe, nearly 20 million Hong Kong dollars in eight days on Hong Kong Island, more than 60 million new dollars in eight days, and 1.8 billion yen in eight days in island countries.
At that time, Lao Li planned to pay 50 million, and Zhao Donghuai said that it was 50 million or 100 million, and when you operate well, we will talk about it after looking at the box office data in various places.
Li Guoxing also agreed.
After all, at this stage, if he makes Zhao Donghuai dissatisfied, this second-hand dealer who has risen by selling Hong Kong films will not be able to eat this bowl of rice in the future.
And the box office performance of Chong Xiaojia in the island country with an average of more than 200 million days a day is still the same as (never compromise), and if it continues, only one island country market can pocket more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars.
With 100 million Hong Kong dollars to buy out, Li Guoxing can make a small profit in the island market, and all parts of Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and South Korea will be full of profits!
At the beginning of Christmas, the first to the fifth is still the holiday time in Europe and the United States, and the home alone once again cut down 25 million US dollars at the box office in North America and more than 21 million US dollars in Europe in five days.
Hong Kong has accumulated a total box office of 33 million Hong Kong dollars, bends have accumulated more than 80 million new bend coins, and the island countries have accumulated a total of 3.3 billion yen.
When the long holiday came to an end, this holiday comedy blockbuster was really making money.
On January 6, Zhao Donghuai met Bruce Willis, Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock at the Zhao's Financial Building, including (Pretty Woman) directors Xu Anhua and Guan Jinpeng.
asked a few people to serve tea, and Zhao Donghuai smiled and said, "Everyone, fly to North America to publicize it, you can still look forward to the box office of (Fengyue Pretty Woman)." ”
"This blockbuster focuses on Blues, after all, Bruce is already popular in the film industry, and you can also ask Brother Gai to help announce it."
"Last year, Brother Gaizi and his father announced Police Story 2, and it was still very successful!"
Police Story 2 has continued until now, and it has really hit more than 60 million US dollars at the box office in North America. No, that's a multitude of factors.
First of all, at the peak of the (uncompromising) explosion effect, William II helped the townspeople of Hinckley win the lawsuit and received 360 million US dollars in damages, and the world paid the most attention to him, and he easily publicized Police Story 2, which made the movie famous all of a sudden.
It was a borrowed (uncompromising) film to shine into reality.
followed by (Police Story 1), which has cut a total of 27 million US dollars at the box office in North America, with a certain audience base, accompanied by theater sales, and videotapes in the market.
Even if Zhao Donghuai crossed the plane before he crossed over, Hong Kong kung fu films have always had a good audience in the North American and European video tape markets, and at this stage (Police Story 1) theaters have cultivated a wave of fans, as well as kung fu fans cultivated by new gunfight action movies......
By the time the second part of the police was released, the market was not low.
Therefore, Cheng Long's second part can sell 60 million US dollars, and the third reason is that Bill Gaizi, a dropout, has been promoted to a billionaire in just nine years, and the promotion of the hot publicity effect is powerful.
With 60 million US dollars in North America, Cheng Long is also considered to be a big hit, completely getting rid of Hong Qibao and Yuan Biao, and really squeezing into the level of global kung fu superstars such as Liu Dehua and Lin Zhengying.
It can only be said that he dared to spend 80 million Hong Kong dollars in the North American market in 1985 to play publicity, and smashed it with real money.
Speaking of which, Zhao Donghuai re-explained, "You don't have to let the lid be too busy, just let him blow it in the media, and to really publicize the hammer, you still have to invite Adjani, Naomi Watts, and Nicole Kidman to interact with them." ”
"Including Cameron Diaz, who is now popular."
"With the linkage publicity of these stars, as well as the cooperation of AMC Cinemas, it will be released in a few days."
Today is the 6th, and it will be announced until January 11, and it will be able to land in theaters on the 12th to start the road of a new romantic comedy blockbuster bombing the street.
On the Chinese side, January 28th is the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, and the 29th is the first day of the Lunar New Year...... But in fact, the box office of the serious Spring Festival stalls is also very impressive, and in recent years, with the bombardment of blockbusters, the siphon effect of this schedule, and the family-watching movie model have also begun to show signs.
After setting the publicity and distribution plan of (Pretty Woman), Zhao Donghuai flew to Tung Chung to make a movie.
It's January 6th.
When Zhao Donghuai arrived in Tung Chung by helicopter, he overlooked the theme park from the sky, and there were twenty or thirty holiday villas by the sea, all of which were basically built in good shape.
It has been four months since the start of construction in early August, and the highest two-story holiday villa is built quickly, much faster than that of 10,000 comprehensive supermarkets.
There are also several planned 30-story resort hotels, which have also risen from the ground, building five or six storeys high.
On the other hand, looking at Tung Chung from the sky, it is obviously much more prosperous than before August last year, not only the villagers of more than a dozen natural villages in the Tung Chung area, but also many residents of various villages such as Tai O, Lantau South and Mui Wo have come here to develop.
After all, New World Passenger Transport's daily stable flights are connecting all parts of Lantau Island.
………………
Time flies.
After New Year's Day to the Spring Festival, and then to the Lantern Festival after the Spring Festival.
It's not just the citizens of Ganghao Bend who have spent a perfect festival of blockbuster movies, but the European and American film industries have been bombarded by Zhao's Pictures, and there are countless fans.
Among them, although (Pretty Woman) has a strong performance, it still has to be seen in Asia (New Mr. Zombie) and (Lone Tiger 2), Ah Ying and Lau Dehua not only relied on two movies to reach new heights in the field of action movies.
(Mr. New Zombie) This kind of time-traveling variant movie has amazed countless fans, and Gu Zai, who was only 17 years old after the Spring Festival, directly became a popular fried chicken.
Gu Zai is considered to have never been famous, and he suddenly became a sensation in the film industry, and he has the popularity and strength to catch up with F4, mainly because the character he played in (New Mr. Zombie) is too cool and likable.
And Gu Tsai himself...... Who would dare to say that he is worse than a handsome guy in F4?
F4's first appearance in the film industry, which is also Johnny To's black society, was also released in the schedule after the Spring Festival, and the acting skills of the four began to be affirmed and praised by the film critics, all praising them for their acting skills improved a lot by leaps and bounds compared to the Meteor Garden idol drama period.
But in comparison, a large number of media also directly let F4's acting skills and Gu Tianle be benchmarked together, and some media even began to shout that Gu Tianle became F No. 5.
Around this Spring Festival, from Cai Shaofen, Cameron Diaz to Gu Tianle, it really belongs to the latest benchmark for the rise of the new generation in Hong Kong stars!
Compared with this group of little guys, Zhou Yanfa, Zhang Guirong, and Lin Qingxia really belong to the uncle and aunt level actors.
If you want to say regrets, it is (Forrest Gump).
Although the (Forrest Gump) movie has an amazing reputation in the media circle, the box office is ...... It's really ordinary, a big production of 20 million US dollars, and Forrest Gump's story only cost more than 11 million dollars in the first week in North America.
Of course, there can be more than 11 million dollars in the first week, with amazing word-of-mouth and continuous praise, it is impossible for this movie to lose money, and it is still certain that it will win more than 50 million dollars at the box office in two months after its release.
It can only be said that a Chinese person was changed to star in Forrest Gump, and the global box office data in his original trajectory was nearly 680 million US dollars, and it is difficult to say whether he can break 100 million US dollars now.
But Zhao Donghuai never expected this movie to make much money, the award is the basic exercise, just this reputation, if Zhao Donghuai is stuck with the principal profits of the North American Academy Chairman Jury Jack, Sam and other elders, he will be stuck in the 1988 Oscars.
Zunlong relied on Forrest Gump to win an Oscar.
Do you want to be stuck for a year and a half? When the other party paid the money, he begged to get on the car, and the profit so far is really gratifying, but the money is in the account of Zhao Donghuai's company, when will the money be repaid, it is not a matter of his words?
After the Lantern Festival, it was already February 13, 1987.
The North American Golden Globe Awards have long ended, and Zhao Donghuai's mother undoubtedly won the Golden Globe Award for Best Director by (never compromise).
Adjani's Golden Globe Actress Trophy, (Juno) Best Picture Trophy, and (Soul Catcher) let Al Pacino win the Golden Globe Best Actor and Xu Jinjiang Best Supporting Actor.
A Golden Globe, Hong Kong Island Pictures is crazy about brushing its face.
These blockbusters were also shortlisted for the 59th Oscars in 1987, and as long as they waited until the end of March, the trophies they should have will be in the bag one after another.
Around the same time, the Hong Kong Island Film Awards also began to operate, and a group of award committee members from Cannes, Berlin and Hollywood in North America were invited to form a committee to select some films from the films released in Europe and the United States last year to accompany them.
At this year's Hong Kong Island Film Awards, the chairman of the jury is the oldest one who asked Shaw Yifu to come forward.
At noon on the 13th, Zhao Donghuai was still having dinner on the 32nd floor of the Financial Building, when he received a report that Yin Sabel Adjani had visited.
When he saw Adjani, the new Golden Globe actress gave Director Zhao a deep hug again, and then smiled, "Zhao, Sidney and Charles, they want to ask me, if they withdraw now, will it be okay?" ”
Zhao Donghuai smiled dumbly, "Of course, until now, this wave of financial war to speculate on foreign exchange is coming to an end, not to mention their funds, which are the funds handed over to me by the citizens of Ganghao Bend, and they should be sold and settled one after another." ”
"In the next time, even if there is still a profit, this profit is not very much compared to the profit of the whole year in 86."
It was February 13, 1987.
It's really not that far from the Japanese yen appreciating to 120 yen, which is equal to one American knife, specifically...... Well, the specific time was in 1987, when the global stock market crash hit, and after the famous Black Monday, the value of 120 yen was equal to a dollar dollar.
That was after October 19, 1987.
From now on, it will be closed one after another, and it will definitely be able to evacuate stably and safely, and the operation of withdrawing all the money can be developed step by step for a period of up to eight months.
Sidney was the president of the Cannes jury last year, Charles was a jury, and without them, where would [Juno] be able to run the Cannes actress nomination? How could Zhang Yimou win the Cannes Best Director trophy? ?
Now the two tactfully invited Adjani to inquire and test the tone. It should have been that I heard the news that Old Jack, the chairman of the North American jury, wanted to withdraw his investment on the phone last time, but was rejected by Zhao Donghuai, and was frightened.
If it weren't for Zhao Donghuai's simulator, even if he was a traverser and dared to work against American, British, and German capitals in the foreign exchange market, he would have been hammered to death.
Then it would be impossible to develop to this day, without such a big hang as a simulator, it would be a Ponzi scheme for him to dare to play like that.
"You can tell them that the settlement will be made within a week, and the principal profit will go to their designated bank account after deducting the due handling fee."
Adjani laughed, "I'll just say that Mr. Charles is too timid, and now he wants to withdraw his investment, and when the funds arrive, he will probably regret it again soon and want to cry." ”
Charles, a native of France and one of the veteran judges of the Cannes jury, entered the game with 2 million US dollars in early April last year, which is not as profitable as the people who got on the bus on January 1.
However, until mid-February 87, his 2 million dollars were still equivalent to earning more than 3% of the appreciation quota per day, and under the 20 times leverage operation, the gross profit was more than 13 million US dollars.
In less than a year, 600% gross profit!
Three days later, on February 16, at the Regent Hotel in Wan Chai, Charles confirmed that he had more than 14 million US dollars in principal and profit in his account.
He also went to the hotel next door to find the other Cannes judges, confirmed each other, and verified the news that all the principal and profits were back.
Including North American director Sidney, this one is also a big profit and is safe in the bag.
A group of Cannes judges had a crazy day of hilarity, and when they woke up on the 17th of the next day, Charles suddenly sat on the bed in a daze.
After being in a daze for more than ten minutes, he grabbed the phone and called Yin Sabel Adjani, "Adjani, you are also 32 years old, and when you get the Oscar Actress trophy at the end of March, you also belong to the senior elder in the film and television industry, I want to recommend you to enter the jury sequence of the Cannes International Film Festival in 1987 this year, what do you think?" ”
Adjani smiled, "Yes, thank you, Mr. Charles. ”
After smiling and politely on the phone for a while, Charles asked curiously, "Adjani, your money?" Investing in the Japanese battlefield? Got it? ”
Adjani was full of atmosphere, "It's still early, what am I anxious about, I voted for 1 million US dollars on January 1 last year, but I raised it again when you entered in April, including in August, Hollywood Film Group gave me 5 million US dollars for filming, and I also raised the 5 million dollars." ”
"Up to now, the total profit is more than 30 million dollars, and it's a little early to settle now, wait, and in the summer of June and July, you can make an additional few million dollars in profits."
Charles took a long breath and felt his heart hurt!
Yes, he has withdrawn in February now and made 600% of the small money, all of which are American knives, but if he withdraws later, wouldn't there be more small money to make a profit?
How happy, joyful, and stable Charles and the other Cannes judges were yesterday, and now when I hear Adjani's words, how heartache I feel, it's all money, beautiful knives!
He was still in heartache, so Adjani smiled and said, "Charles, don't tell me that you regret it, and you still want to continue investing...... Come if you want, leave if you want, you don't believe in Zhao Sheng's strength. ”
"It's not that easy to get back on the bus now."
Charles instinctively wanted to refute, they suddenly got out of the car, by no means they didn't believe in Zhao Donghuai's financial power, but they were afraid that like Old Jack and Sam in North America, if they wanted to withdraw and be rejected, the principal might be in danger......
But now, he is a little out of words.
Come when you want, go when you want, turn around and want to keep coming back? How can it be that easy?
At the end of the phone call, although Charles had made a lot of money and should have been so happy that he should have exploded in joy and joy, when he walked to the second floor of the Regent Hotel, his expression was as ugly as if he had died of a loved one.
This sentiment soon began to spread throughout the jury circle, including Sidney, who was the old man last year!
………………
Zhao's Financial Center.
After Adjani put down the phone, her eyebrows fluttered with a smile, and she didn't talk happily, and then took advantage of the fact that only Zhao Donghuai was in the office and Zhang Min and Qiu Shuzhen were not there, so she walked quickly, "Zhao, I'm 32 years old, and if you don't use it, you'll be old." ”
"Why don't you really help me? Fix the plumbing ......"
Director Zhao, "......"
Sister-in-law, please respect yourself??
………………
Kwun Tong.
Zhang Weifan, a regular worker of a senior Wanjia supermarket, returned home happily and said to his parents with a look of surprise, "Dad, Mom, we have made a fortune, we have really made a fortune and settled." ”
"We invested 600,000 in the foreign exchange market on January 1 last year, and I went to settle before and got 6 million Hong Kong dollars!"
"It's time to buy a house, buy a big house...... There is no need to let the younger brother sleep in the living room anymore, this is enough to buy several thousand-foot mansions. ”
He got on the bus on January 1st, and now on February 17th, the proportion of the daily yen has appreciated by more than 4 percent and close to 5 percent.
With a gross profit of 600,000 yuan after deducting various handling fees and other expenses, it is really not difficult to buy a big house.
Zhang's father immediately put down what he was doing and ran, "Is there really 6 million?" Hiss...... It's also too ......."
It's an exaggeration.
Who would have thought that at the end of 84, they had saved half a lifetime of money and raised 600,000, and it would become 6 million in just over a year?
During this time, after the Spring Festival, Zhang's father resigned from his profession as a bus driver, just to wait for the foreign exchange settlement one day, he helped buy a house, build a new home, and then waited for it to be stable, saying that he would apply to go to New World Passenger Transport to be a taxi driver.
Qiu Shuzhen and Zhang Min opened New World Passenger Transport in October last year, and in the four months since its development, the ferry has caught up with or even surpassed the Star Ferry and the Yau Ma Tei Ferry.
The taxi team connecting Hong Kong, Kowloon and the New Territories has also grown to more than 3,000 vehicles, and it is already one of the leaders in the taxi industry in Hong Kong.
After all, there are only 16,700 taxi licences in Hong Kong.
Those who know know that entering the New World Passenger Transport and driving a taxi is equivalent to becoming an employee of Zhao Donghuai in disguise.
With such an advantage, what kind of bus does Zhang's father drive?
Isn't it fragrant to drive a taxi and live with Zhao Shengming?
Zhang Weifan directly handed over the bank card to his father, and said with a smile, "Ami is about to give birth, and our family really can't live without buying a house, so the company said that when the financial group has begun to start the settlement project one after another, I will settle it directly." ”
"If this money is still in the financial group, it will be settled in the summer, and it will be able to make a profit of hundreds of thousands, but our family is in a special situation......"
When they just pooled their money to invest in foreign exchange, it was still a family of six, and Ami had just been married for two months.
His second brother is also still in secondary school.
Right now?? Not only is Ami seven months pregnant and about to give birth, but her younger brother is also graduating soon, and she will graduate from middle school this summer and will enter the society, and she will be 18 years old.
What to do then? Still living in such a crowded place? What should I do if my second brother talks about his girlfriend in the future?
But with these 6 million, it's different.
In 1987, housing prices on Hong Kong Island have begun to skyrocket, that is, in 83 and 84, the average price of residential houses in Kowloon was more than 500 Hong Kong dollars per square meter, which is equal to more than 5,000 square meters, and now it has risen to more than 800 Hong Kong dollars and more than 8,000 Hong Kong dollars per square meter.
That's the average price!
In most residential communities in Yau Tsim Mong and Kowloon Tong, the house price has long been more than 1,000 Hong Kong dollars per foot, that is, the price of new towns in Kwun Tong, Tseung Kwan O, Sau Mau Ping, Tsz Wan Shan and other districts is 5,601 square feet.
The more prosperous the place, the more expensive, and the more remote and backward the area, the cheaper.
Zhang's father and mother laughed excitedly, laughed heartily, and after laughing for a while, Zhang's mother rubbed her hands and said, "Then Afan, where are you going to buy a house?" ”
"Since last year, hasn't Chinese Real Estate also rebuilt a lot of buildings in old neighborhoods? Thanks to Zhao Sheng's support, we can make a fortune, and we still have to buy a house from ACN. ”
Zhang Weifan nodded, "This money is to spend more than one million yuan to buy a thousand-foot mansion in Yau Tsim Wang, and you can also buy three or four sets, I plan to buy a large set in Tsim Sha Tsui, preferably a double-storey duplex, about 2,000 square feet, which can live in our family." ”
"Then I want to buy one in Tung Chung."
Zhang's father was dazed, "Tung Chung? Lantau Island?? You ......"
Zhang Weifan said excitedly, "That's the case, I am currently a small supervisor of the daily department store area in Kwun Tong Wanjia, but if I want to appreciate and raise my salary, I will have to wait for a long time." ”
"If it weren't for Ami's pregnancy last year, which was inconvenient, I would have thought about going to the mainland to be gilded, even if I went to the mainland to get a low salary for one or two years, which was eight or ninety percent less than the salary on Hong Kong Island, but if I worked in the mainland for two years, I would have been promoted much faster."
"Missing the fast track to promotion in the mainland, Tung Chung is a good place, and it is currently deserted and backward, but I believe Zhao Sheng, since ACN has made so many development plans and invested so much there, Tung Chung's future development prospects must be very good."
"In addition to building holiday villas and resort hotels, ACN has also developed small communities similar to Taikoo Shing, including Wanjia supermarkets, and if I go now, it will not be long before I can be upgraded to another level."
The development model of Wanjia supermarket, from the first entry to the promotion to the general manager of the first district, and then to the entire Wanjia CEO level, the middle is full of 9 levels of poor treatment of employees.
The wage standard is similar to the gap between workers in the first to eighth levels in the mainland.
Zhang Weifan has been in the industry for a few years, and he has slowly become a second-level employee by relying on honesty and diligence, similar to the small supervisor of a Japanese hypermarket of the nature of "the original comprehensive supermarket Watsons's Baijian supermarket", and he doesn't know how long it will take to become a third-level employee.
Therefore, where does the group go to the beginning of development, seize the opportunity to open up new markets, it is easier to upgrade and promote, and each employee of different levels, wages and benefits are better standards!
There is basically only one CEO for the ninth-level worker.
"More importantly, Tung Chung is in the early stage of development, and the housing price of the first batch of residential areas to be built is only 400 yuan a foot, and 1 million Hong Kong dollars can only buy a house of seven or eight hundred feet in Mong Kok and other places, but in Tung Chung, at present, 1 million can buy more than 2,000 square feet of luxury houses."
Zhang's father and Zhang's mother couldn't help but smile with satisfaction and happiness when they looked at their eldest son's energetic and eloquent appearance.
The bottom layer of dick silk has become the middle class!
They really wanted to shout a few times, long live Zhao Sheng.
………………
February 18, Zhao's Financial Building.
When Zhao Donghuai saw Hong Jubao, Yuan Biao, Qin Xianglin and others who came together, he just signaled to let Qiu Shuzhen make tea.
Hong Jubao hurriedly waved his hand and smiled, "Don't bother Sister Zhen, let's come by ourselves, little sister, why don't you hurry up and pour tea." ”
The little sister he called is Zhong Yihong, these guys found out (Mr. New Zombie) on July 31 last year, and they plan to remake it (Clever Trick Five Lucky Stars), and it's been five or six months now.
There is no need to find anyone to adapt, the screenwriters of the original version are Hong Jubao and Huang Bingyao, get together and re-assemble the whole paragraph, and everything will come out.
Add a traverser!
The most difficult thing in this is how to make the story after crossing more exciting, such as the version of Gu Tianle (Mr. New Zombie), learning Taoism and marrying a beautiful woman to become an upright handsome man to protect the land and the people, the main theme line is too comfortable and strong.
Conspiracy's film adaptation...... A group of people discussed to the end, and added a sixth lucky star Chen Baixiang, and the beginning was an extra section of green hair played by Chen Baixiang, who was killed when he gave a green hat to others, and then Ah Xiang crossed over.
Then Chen Baixiang's green hair continued to make trouble and went to prison after crossing over, only to find out that he had entered the story of the Five Lucky Stars movie?
After becoming the sixth lucky star and being released from prison, Chen Baixiang did not work with the five lucky stars, but took the initiative to hook up with Xia Wenxi, the daughter of Chen Chao, the king of counterfeit banknotes, and robbed the girl who played that role in the original Taibao.
The follow-up was to cooperate with Wufuxing to continue to send Chen Chao to prison and eat royal meals for a lifetime, but Chen Baixiang harvested all Chen Chao's inheritance, wealth, and became a rich man.
Five Lucky Star series of movies, in fact, the key actors don't need them to be handsome, they need to be funny.
pulled Chen Baixiang to play a green hair who specializes in green others, this Alak's funny power, there is really no need to doubt it!
After watching the movie with a group of people from the Wufuxing crew, Zhao Donghuai laughed many times, but after watching it, he still said bluntly, "The shooting is good, but compared with (Mr. New Zombie), I still feel that the taste is still bad." ”
This version of the story of the Five Lucky Stars, Chen Baixiang and others got together, and the funny power is very strong, which is much more exciting than the best lucky stars and lucky stars in the original trajectory with Mai Jia participating in the rivers and lakes.
But how to say it, the viewing experience is still not as refreshing as (New Mr. Zombie), but it is a grade off.
Hong Jubao was also busy nodding, "Yes, we stayed up a lot of time during filming, and we were busy saving new jokes, and finally found out that it was actually the main line logic that was poor and the grade was not enough!" ”
"Mr. Zombie is adapted, the main line is very stable, the logic is strong, it is the protagonist of the new crossing, the development trajectory is clear at a glance, the main line of the Five Lucky Star series to catch thieves, compared to learning Taoism, marrying a beautiful woman, and then becoming a warlord...... It is much weaker, and the similar pattern is not enough. ”
"This movie, I feel that it can make a lot of money by selling it, but the influence is definitely far less than that of the new Mr. Zombie, and not all films can rub the east wind of the traverser."
"So I saved up another Republic of China film, Zhao Sheng, can you help me take a look?"
Zhao Donghuai was dumbfounded, and when he watched Sanmao's new script in the big office, he was surprised by the opening name, (Ip Man)!
This is really magical, you must know that the original Ip Man was only filmed in 2008, and the original Ip Man screenwriter is only 9 years old this year, right? ?
If you think about it, it's nothing, first of all, Ip Man is a real person, although the real Ip Man experience is very different from what is presented in the 2008 version of Ip Man movie.
But in his life, Ip Man taught an apprentice, Bruce Lee, and countless people know that adapting Ip Man's biopic film is to stand on Bruce Lee's shoulders and do things.
From the perspective of publicity and distribution, the film company changed the life deeds of Bruce Lee, the world's legendary superstar, into a script and made a movie, which naturally has a huge viewing foundation.
With the creativity of Hong Xiubao and one of his right-hand men, Wong Bingyao, at this stage, they were aroused by a bunch of blockbuster biopics to start their own biopic series?
Hong Jubao, Cheng Long, Lin Zhengying, including Yuan Biao, all began to rise in the Bruce Lee era.
A lot of thoughts flashed in his heart, Zhao Donghuai looked through the script of Ip Man, read it roughly, and found that this version of Ip Man was six or seven percent similar to the 2008 version of Ip Man.
After he finished watching it, Hong Jubao sneered, "We can handle the adaptation rights, but Master Ye has some things that are inconvenient to put on the big screen, so he beautifies them a lot." ”
The real Ip Man is short, rich and handsome, smokes a lot, visits the green house, etc...... There are too many that are not suitable for the current big screen.
But the most important story development is that Ip Man founded a sect in Foshan, No1 in the martial arts world, defeated boxers from other places who came to challenge the martial arts world in Foshan, and then fell to Foshan, and the Ye family was robbed of all their wealth and lived a humble and sad life.
Later, he fought in the ring and defeated the martial arts masters of the island country and ran away.
The story line of the ring can be said to be copied from Huo Yuanjia's deeds, which is also easy to arouse the emotional resonance of Chinese audiences, and Brother Xiaolong's Jingwumen is the best example.
Zhao Donghuai smiled and nodded, "The book is good, who are you going to find to play?" ”
Hong Xiubao was excited, "Master Ye, I plan to let Ah Biao play, Ah Biao is 30 years old this year, he plays beautifully, he will also do Wing Chun, and I plan to play the boxer from other provinces to challenge the martial arts world in Foshan." ”
"Island country masters, I plan to choose Billy Zhou and Kurata Hoaki."
"But if you really shoot, you have to go to the mainland to shoot a lot of scenes, and you also need to use the manpower and material resources of the mainland to shoot, not to mention the magnificent atmosphere like the biography of Wang Wenxia, at least you have to shoot decently."
This Ip Man said that it was six or seven percent similar to the original story, that is, the foreign boxer played by Hong Jubao, Master Hong Boxing, after being defeated by Ip Man, he was also moved by Master Ye's charm and became Ip Man's subordinate.
And the island country invaded China, and there were two big bosses in the end.
In the end, one was Ip Man vs. Billy Chow, who won the Open Championship under the watchful eyes of countless people, and was beaten and ran away to Hong Kong Island.
The other is the island base indoors, where Master Hong, played by Hong Qibao, kills Kurata Hoaki.
Wing Chun? In 1981, Yuan Biao starred in (Loser), which is the story of Ah Biao learning Wing Chun to avenge his master and kill the villain.
Thinking of this, Hong Qibao said again, "The heroine invites Chen Hong?" Anyway, in the whole script, Master Ye is a good man who is afraid of his wife and loves his wife...... There is no hand-holding scene, and the character design is also everyone's girlfriend, a good wife and mother. ”
