Chapter 213: Different Ways of Expression in Kung Fu Movies

Huang Bai comforted them, thought for a moment and asked, "Do any of you know some people who are good-looking, mainly spiritual, and have kung fu? I want to open two more films, both of which are adapted from a play. I want to make a feature film, a funny comedy. Now I need a main character to make a feature film, and I myself need to make a comedy comedy."

"A drama adaptation? Which drama?" Chen Xiaolong asked curiously.

"Thunderstorm." Wong Cork Road.

The drama of thunderstorm is there in this world. After all, there really is Huo Yuanjia in this world. But this drama has been in the dust for a long time.

Huang Bai searched the Internet for a long time before he found it.

At first, it was adapted and performed by students at the Longjing Drama Theater in the thirties and forties. As soon as it was launched, it immediately caused a sensation in the context of the times at that time.

Later, it was adapted one after another, and even some of the characters in it were changed.

Later, someone made it up based on some real characters.

In the sixties and seventies, he performed in Hong Kong City, and at that time, there was the role of Chen Zhen.

It's a process that's slowly evolving.

In the 80s, there were also people who moved to the screen, but the response was not great.

Slowly, this drama was sealed in the dust. Now that I take it out, I don't think anyone will know.

And Cork is not really adapted according to this, but just chooses the names of the characters in it to use.

Besides, this is not an adaptation of Cork, but a plagiarism of his original world.

Huang Bai said: "Actually, it doesn't have much to do with drama. But it just needs that kind of background and those characters and stories. The main thing is to make this drama well, and I personally have the nature of playing."

Huang Bai really doesn't know if the people in this world can accept Zhou Xingxing's nonsensical performance, so this is just testing the waters.

Anyway, now Cork is not short of money, and he can afford to spend tens of millions of dollars to make a movie and have fun.

Of course, Cork can directly make those more successful films, but Huang Bai believes that there should be a gradual process of market acceptance. If Huang Bai makes a movie like "Kung Fu" and a movie like "Journey to the West" at once, can the audience understand and interpret it without saying whether they accept it or not?

Today's film and television are indeed too impetuous, and there are many types of movies missing in the middle, and this time I jumped to the kind of movies that are cool with little fresh meat and no action or acting skills at all.

Let's put it this way, today's movies, the background of the movie is beautiful, the plot is mostly sadistic, embarrassing, and mostly love, and it is the kind that dies and lives because of a little misunderstanding at every turn.

There is no transition, just a little fresh meat, a fairy-like heroine, they are inexplicably bloody and fall in love with each other, and then there is a series of bloody plots, crying to death in the play, and finally misunderstanding the ice release, defeating the biggest boss, and the male and female protagonists are happily together.

Such routines, in war dramas, in modern cities, and in fantasy fairies, are basically the same.

The audience is actually tired of such movies.

This is also the main reason why the Five Lucky Star series is so popular all of a sudden.

Because there is a plot and action in the Five Lucky Stars, as well as hilarious performances, everything is perfectly integrated, and this becomes an excellent and really good movie.

The action fight is closer to actual combat, the actor's acting skills are not blunt or embarrassing, and the plot is smooth, which seems a bit nonsensical, but it is also reasonable.

Huang Bai just saw that there was a thunderstorm in this world, a drama that had been a sensation, and it had an early evolution, so now he has taken out the Jingwu Sect, which can just make up for this shortcoming.

Huang Bai also hopes that through this Jingwumen movie, the people of the Dragon Kingdom can be reminded of the dark and tragic history of the past, and the people of the Dragon Kingdom will be vigilant against the people of the island country.

This is also a preparation for the collapse of the island style street

。

"Well, how about I be the main character?" Chen Xiaolong asked with some interest.

"Iβ€”Can I?" Yuan Biao, this kid, also looked at Cork with a little expectation.

Huang Bai shook his head and said, "Brother Long, Brother Biao, the style is different. Brother Long, you and Garbo, as well as Yuan Biao, yes, and Yuan Zhengying, your martial arts actions are almost the same series, and they are more inclined to a kind of tricky and actual combat. That is, the use of some environmental tools and other aspects of the kung fu system. For you, anything can be a weapon. This kind of performance style can lead to a lot of unexpected jokes, making people feel a kind of enthusiasm, but also feel nervous and exciting, and will make people laugh and laugh. To put it bluntly, it's a combination of martial arts action and funny style."

"...... here," Huang Bai glanced at them separately and said frankly, "I'm also telling the truth, your appearance also determines your style, not too handsome and handsome, because, if you want to achieve greater success in film and television, then you must work martial arts action, unexpected funny, especially some thrilling actions that others can't do." Kung fu moves that can be done without a stand-in, only in this way can you have your own unique characteristics and become a real kung fu superstar."

"Huang Shao is right, you see a fat man like me, if it weren't for good kung fu, wouldn't it be funny, do you think the movie I made would be watched?" What Hong Jiabao said about Huang Bai was the most profound, so he patted Chen Xiaolong and Yuan Biao on the shoulder.

Huang Bai smiled and said, "Brother Long and Yuan Biao's appearance is still good. But think about it, compared with those little fresh meat today, do you think those girls like you or those little fresh meat? However, do not be discouraged, because your style is something that no one can imitate. The achievements of the Five Lucky Stars are the result of your joint efforts. So, in the future, you will shoot more movies together first, and slowly form a performance style, and when you come out individually, and you can support the box office of a movie, then you will come out and take the lead, or consider changing your acting style."

"Well, we'll try." Several people understood a little.

There are some things that really don't need to be explained too clearly.

Now, when they come out alone, they really can't support the box office of a movie.

Even Chen Xiaolong is the same, otherwise, his original entertainment company would not have given him resources without paying attention, and would not have let him go easily, and let him sign a contract with Mythical Entertainment.

Therefore, this police story is indeed very important to Chen Xiaolong.

Huang Bai then said to them, "Kung Fu, there are many ways to express it, and I am telling you one. The other is a neat, handsome and cool kung fu performance. Of course, the main thing is the routine, that is, how to shoot the action of the fight, how handsome it is. But it doesn't mean that it's all routines, at least people who know kung fu need to have some actual combat movements. Such a kung fu actor does not necessarily need that kind of muscular man to shoot, he is handsome and has kung fu. Naturally, this acting and spirituality are also indispensable, otherwise it will not be filmed well."

"To be handsome and have good kung fu, as well as acting skills and spirituality. Huang Shao, you don't mean yourself, right? You're supposed to have kung fu, we've all seen the video of your fight with those two killers." At this time, the actor Chen Qisheng said on the side.

"Forehead......" Huang Bai covered his forehead and said, "I do know a little kung fu, and it doesn't mean that I can't let me shoot." However, we can't be all on our mythological entertainment, right? We have actors like Bruce Chan and Hung Jiabao who have a kung fu performance style, and we also need other kung fu performance style actors. I have to compose music, I have to write movie scripts, I have to participate in filming, and I have to be an actor, do you really think that I am the Monkey King with seventy-two changes? Do clones have skills? If I continue like this, I just won't even have time to shoot."

"Hey...... hey" everyone snickered.

Huang Bai said angrily: "There is also a tendency to express kung fu in Western movies now, that is, the kind of fist to flesh, but the fights in Western movies are too monotonous, and they are not as ever-changing as the kung fu of our Dragon Kingdom. place

In this way, the Western way of fighting to the flesh, combined with the kung fu of our Dragon Kingdom, can show a violent aesthetics."

"Also, a kind of fighting performance of ancient martial arts, in this, it definitely takes some real kung fu to shoot well, and you need moves to shoot that effect. Such as what kind of martial arts, what moves, how to perform. As for the current little fresh meat, just put on a shape, how do you know what kind of kung fu? So, it looks really embarrassing."

"And then there's that kind of fairytale, kung fu action plus computer special effects. Alas, my mother, what are those Xianxia things that are being filmed in film and television now? Those actors, if they want to act without acting skills, if they don't have kung fu, they don't have kung fu, and after a play, they all rely on floating."

Huang Bai waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this, you see, who knows some suitable ones, bring them to me." I looked for some kung fu stars online, but I couldn't find the right one."

Bruce Chen raised his hand at this time and said, "Well, I know a person from our Dragon Country in the beautiful country, he is quite obsessed with kung fu, especially Bruce Lee. He knew that I was also a kung fu star, and he came to me every day to compete. However, I haven't seen him for a long time, and I haven't been in touch, so I don't know where he is now. It's like he's got caught in jail or gone somewhere because of a fight or something."

"Oh? What's it called?" Huang Bai listened to this person's experience, and it seemed to be a little similar to someone.

"It's called Zhen Jiahao. When I first met him, he was afraid that he was in his twenties, he said that he also wanted to make movies like Bruce Lee, and went to some crews to say that he wanted to film, but people didn't care about him, they would usually kick him out, and once he ran to my crew, and then he met him. Now, after a few years, I will be twenty-five or six years old at most. I don't know exactly what happened." Chen Xiaolong said.

Zhen Jiahao?

Huang Bai knew that it wasn't necessarily Zhenzi Dan, no, definitely not.

However, since Chen Xiaolong thought that he might be suitable, he could ask Chen Xiaolong to contact him and see if he could be found.

Anyway, if Huang Bai wants to shoot the new Jingwumen now, he must shoot the Jingwumen first. And this Jingwumen can shoot two styles, one is the style of Kung Fu Li, and the other is the style of Mako Dan. It's up to you to find which style is more suitable for shooting, and then shoot that one.

"Okay, Brother Long, you can contact him and see if you can find him. If you can find him, let him meet him...... No, if it's too far away to make it inconvenient, you can send me a picture of him."

"Okay, I'll look it up when I get back, I don't remember his contact information, but it must have been written down in a notebook." z.br>

"Well, don't rush, take your time."

Huang Bai nodded.

"Huang Shao, I, I learned kung fu from a master, there are several disciples under this master, one of them has just graduated from college, and he has not found a job recently, he learns kung fu from the master every day, I think he is very good at kung fu. The shape is also good, do you want to bring it to you to see? But yes, he hasn't acted before, so I don't know if it's okay."

"Oh? Where did you worship Master?"

"My master is the owner of the Dragon and Tiger Martial Arts Pavilion, and he is in his fifties. is also surnamed Hong like me, called Hong Chengwu, mainly through the Hong family boxing, is one of the grandmasters of Nanquan. I heard that he is still a descendant of Hong Xiguan, but I don't know if it's true or not. If it weren't for the fact that I have the same surname as Master Hong, then I might not have been accepted as an apprentice, and he said that I am in my twenties, which is long past the age of martial arts training."

Martial arts training must be practiced from a young age to achieve success, which is the common sense of martial arts practitioners.

"What you have to practice is a routine, as long as the filming is enough." Wong Cork Road.

"Yes, that's what I told Master Hong, I said that I practiced his boxing, and I can promote it for Hong's boxing in the movie in the future, just like Bruce Lee's swimming spring and Jeet Kune Do, and beat this fame out." Hong Jiabao said with a clever smile.

"Hehe, it seems that your Master Hong is not a pedantic person, it's okay, you bring him to the company tomorrow, let me see if it's suitable."

"Okay."

Huang Bai drank with them for a while and talked a little

movie, and then announced that they would be given a bonus package to the crew of the Five Lucky Stars.

This is also something that everyone in the company has a part in.

But there must be more than that.

The main creators of the movie, such as the leading actors, have checks in the red envelopes.

Like the director, it is directly two million, and Chen Xiaolong is also two million. The other starring is one million and so on, and the average employee is equivalent to an extra month's salary.

A movie has made so much money for Mythical Entertainment, and it is definitely necessary to give certain red envelope rewards to the company's employees and the main creators of the movie.

This is an extra red envelope on top of the salary they have already received.

In fact, they are also very clear that this movie was invested and shot by Huang Bai, and it is the script of Huang Bai, and in the actual shooting process, Huang Bai is basically the leading.

Therefore, even if it is the director and starring, even if it is Bruce Chan, a successful first-line kung fu star, he does not dare to say that the success of this movie is because of him. On the contrary, he was able to participate in this high-grossing film and restore and even increase his fame, which also requires gratitude to Huang Bai for giving him such an opportunity.

If it weren't for Huang Bai inviting him back to film many times, then he wouldn't know how to run a "trick" in that crew in a beautiful country. A first-line kung fu star in the Dragon Country can only be reduced to a "dragon set" in the beautiful country, which really makes him feel suffocated and unwilling.

Therefore, the five lucky stars who participated in the show could achieve such great success, which really made him breathe a bad breath.

Therefore, he knows how much money Huang Bai has made since he was red.

To be a human being, you really need to know how to be grateful.

But fortunately, for the time being, no one will feel that their salary is unreasonable, and whether the red envelope given by Cork is too small.

That's it for the celebration feast.

As the heroine Mei Qianxue, she was also very happy, and she had to touch a glass with Huang Bai a few times, but she was already a little drunk when she left.

Huang Bai didn't plan to go back to the apartment in the university town to rest, but seeing Mei Qianxue's appearance, he was responsible for sending her and Lin Qingya and other girls back to the apartment together.

She lives on the same floor as Huang Bai with Lin Qingya, Luo Chuling, and Gu Tingting.

Luo Chuling and Gu Tingting, who were also a little drunk, were sent into the room by Lin Qingya.

But Mei Qianxue was unwilling to be sent in, but pulled Huang Bai to the door of Huang Bai's house.

"Cork, I'd like to go in and sit for a while." Mei Qianxue seemed to be a lot bolder with the intention of drinking, and grabbed the placket of Huang Bai's clothes with some unsteady steps.

"Okay, I'll make you a cup of honey tea to relieve your hangover." Huang Bai didn't think much about it, swept his face into the room, and helped Mei Qianxue to the sofa.

The door was not closed, and Huang Bai was thinking about sending Mei Qianxue back later.

The bee candy was bought by Huang Shaojun, and she went to dig the honeycomb with Cork when she was a child.

She knew that Cork was particularly fond of honey with honeycomb.

However, it was a bit difficult to find and buy in the city, so she bought a lot of honey and came back.

Huang Bai soaked a cup of honey water for Mei Qianxue.

At this time, after Lin Qingya sent the other two girls back to the room, she found that Mei Qianxue did not come in, so she couldn't help but go out to look, but saw that the room was not closed, and saw that Huang Bai was about to help Mei Qianxue drink water, and saw that Huang Bai was still very gentle to cool some water in the cup, so she gave Mei Qianxue to drink. She couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable in her heart, and a feeling of discomfort naturally arose.

She hesitated, did not enter, but retreated into her room, closing the door softly.

She knew that Mei Qianxue also liked Cork.

However, she also saw that Huang Bai, Zhai Jiangqing and Su Yuqing did not seem to be simple.

Now that Mei Qianxue is like this again, she really doesn't know what to say about Cork.

This guy is really sweet!

However, knowing that Huang Bai is such a caring guy, she does think about him from time to time, and she will feel a little uncomfortable when she sees Huang Bai so close to Su Yuqing and Mei Qianxue.

She didn't know if she was jealous.

But she also knows

Dao, he and Huang Bai are actually just ordinary friends, and it seems that it is not their turn to be jealous.

Sometimes, she doesn't know what she thinks.

Every time I think of the situation with Huang Bai in the Peace Hotel, I will remember the heartbeat of Huang Bai hugging me from time to time.
