Cheng Long is a little contradictory to Du Qifeng, because "One Hundred Thousand Urgent"...

In fact, "One Hundred Thousand Urgent" is obviously not Du Qifeng's style, it is said to be Cheng Long's creativity.

Cheng Long also scolded Du Qifeng in the newspaper...

Chen Kexin has never cooperated with Cheng Long.

However, they all admit that Jackie Chan is the biggest name in the Hong Kong film industry!

Chen Kexin talked about his fate with Cheng Long: "Actually, I worked at Golden Harvest in the 80s of the last century, and the first movie I participated in was "Heroes Without Tears", the director was Wu Yusen, and I was the coordinator of the crew... At that time, the crew went to Thailand to shoot and needed a translator, so I went, and they asked me to be the coordinator...The filming of "Heroes Without Tears" encountered an accident, and several people died, Wu Yusen, as the director, chose to conceal the report, and I secretly told the boss..."

Shen Xudong answered: "I remember that "Heroes Without Tears" didn't seem to be released at all, and because of this scene, director Wu Yusen was fired by Golden Harvest? ”

"Yes, it's not released... Later, "The True Color of Heroes" became popular, and Golden Harvest took out "Heroes Without Tears" for release... Because of "Heroes Without Tears", the boss appreciated me very much and arranged for me to be the assistant director of "Weilong Detective"..."

"Weilong Detective" Golden Harvest cooperated with Hollywood's "Warner Pictures", hoping to use the film to promote Chenglong to the North American film market.

Chen Kexin also served as an assistant director in the film under He Guanchang's arrangement, helping "Taizhuzi" Cheng Long enter the international film market.

It's a pity that the effect of "Dragon Detective" after its release in North America was not ideal, and Cheng Long's Hollywood impact tour ended in failure.

After returning to Hong Kong, Cheng Lung held back the fire in his stomach and took out "Police Story"... This inspired me a lot, it turns out that making movies really needs to be innovative! ”

"I only started directing my first film in '91, A Tale of Two Cities..."

"A Tale of Two Cities" was selected as the best film by the Hong Kong Directors Guild, Zeng Zhiwei won the Hong Kong Film Awards, and Chen Kexin also became an instant hit...

After talking about the experience, Chen Kexin asked Shen Xudong about the direction of the mainland market, and Du Qifeng also listened carefully...

The Hong Kong market is too cold, there is no way to return to the original cost, the foreign market is almost dominated by Hollywood, and Hong Kong movies can never return to the past~

Now there is only one way out of the domestic market.

Shen Xudong thought for a while, and then said: "Actually, theaters in the mainland are more inclined to blockbusters..."

"What do you mean by blockbuster?"

"There must be a big scene, a big star... And it's a high investment! ”

"How do you understand the big scene?"

"Heroes..."

"Oh!" Chen Kexin nodded, and then asked again: "But "Orphaned" sold 67 million, and it also sold 6 million in Hong Kong!" ”

“… Oh? Hong Kong sold 6 million? ”

"Well, we're surprised, too!"

In the Hong Kong film market in 04, Chinese films are extremely unpopular, and 10 million can be among the top ten grossing records - the Hong Kong box office of "Ambush on All Sides" is 14 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking 7th in the year...

Shen Xudong thought for a while: "It may have triggered a social discussion..."

"Is it okay to start a discussion?"

Shen Xudong thought for a while, and then told the truth: "The most important thing is the support of the theater..."

Chen Kexin nodded: "Then it's no problem... My "If Love", what about Star Beauty Investment! ”

“… Well, come on! ”

There is an egg, as soon as "Wu Ji" is on, all the theaters will stop for you!

……

Chen Kexin still has the possibility of cooperation, after Ya went north, she found a lot of screenwriters and made a bunch of books, for example, she found Lu Wei to write the screenplay "Waiting", uh, Kong Lin, a military doctor who had an extramarital affair with a nurse, waited for 18 years, and finally divorced the original wife in his hometown... A military doctor, who also had an extramarital affair, was determined to not pass the trial, and later wanted to do "The Case of the Sauce Garden Husband" and "The Great River and the Sea"...

Later, I went to streaming!

Leave a sentence 'The most feared thing about making a movie is not that you don't have to shoot, but that you don't have a choice!' ’

As for Johnny To...

Since "Drug War", I haven't been able to make movies well.

In fact, directors like Johnny To are typical of resisting the mainland...

I feel that I can live without the mainland!

Anyway, I'm a citizen of world cinema...

Without liamine's body powder, the mentality is similar to liamine...

However, Shen Xudong must praise "Judo Dragon and Tiger List"...

A film that pays tribute to Akira Kurosawa, to be exact, "Zi Sanshiro"...

The biggest problem with the movie "Judo Dragon and Tiger List" is casting!

Aaron Kwok is going to play a rising stunned young man, and Louis Koo is a dull hidden master...

The age and status of the two men created a serious discord.

"Judo Dragon and Tiger List" itself is to create a highly hypothetical plot setting that is different from what normal audiences can access - the dignity and status of everyone in the film are realized by judo!

Then you can't have anything that makes the audience jump out of the plot and start thinking about it.

Once you don't get into the play, the problem will be magnified.

Therefore, the reputation of "Judo Dragon and Tiger List" is very fragmented, and the box office is not good...

It's very simple to blow a movie, if you can't blow the plot, you can blow the Tao, and if you can't blow it, you can blow the temperament!

What's more, "Judo Dragon and Tiger List" can indeed blow a wave...

"Does Director Du have an idea to enter the mainland?"

“… There is no suitable script for the time being... Your "Manslaughter" found Lin Lingdong... Do you have a suitable script? ”

I said how could Du Qifeng care about a little screenwriter, it turned out to be "Manslaughter"...

Shen Xudong immediately thought of "The Tailor"...

But when I think of Johnny To's reputation, forget it, what if he steals an idea and finds someone to shoot it?

"Not for the time being, but if Director Du wants to, he can say the conditions, I'll go back and write one..."

“… Is it so powerful? I say conditions, you can write? ”

"Screenwriter... Take any job..."

"Forget it, what I'm good at, can't be released in the mainland!"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "In fact, urban romance films like "Thin Men and Women" and "Lonely Men and Widows" are very popular all over the world! ”

To Qifeng pointed at himself in disbelief: "Do you think I want to make that kind of movie now?" ”

"Then why did you shoot in the first place?"

“… To feed the company! ”

"So, let's open up the market, make a few more romance films, and then discuss with the above to shoot a few gunfight genres, the mainland was very chaotic in the 90s, there were a bunch of bandits..."

Shen Xudong said a few cases, similar to Zhang Jun, Erwang, Hulan Daxia and the like...

Johnny To became interested: "Will they let me shoot?" ”

"Let's discuss... There's definitely a chance! ”

“… Even if I want to shoot, I can't find a suitable actor, the actresses in the mainland are too earthy..."

Shen Xudong shook his head decisively: "This is too absolute, whether the soil is not the soil mainly depends on the clothing, the so-called people rely on clothes, horses and saddles, and change clothes, they are all urban beauties!" ”

“… You give an example. ”

"Chen Hao and Gao Yuanyuan are not bad..."

"Then you write me a script, I'll take a look first..."

"Cheng, no problem!"
