"Soldier Assault", Shen Xudong decided to invest in production, as the company's first TV series!

It's 12 million anyway.

Orange Sky provided 8 million funds, accounting for half of the investment, and Gao Fenfen picked up another 4 million from the TV station...

Shen Xudong didn't want to invite Zhang Guoli in the first place, isn't it a coincidence, let him also intervene...

“… Did you write the script? ”

"My senior brother, Lan Xiaolong's script, originally called "Erna Assault", won the Cao Yu Drama Award... The plot is very simple, from rookie to soldier king... A very gentleman's play! ”

“… No emotional drama? ”

"Hmm... So, I was a little afraid to do it. Of course, Shen Xudong quickly changed his words: "But I think there should be a market for this drama, because many people are interested in special forces..."

Zhang Guoli smiled: "Then do it..."

"Howler!"

Shen Xudong was about to praise the script of "Soldier Assault", and Feng Xiaogang read "Glory of the Tang Dynasty": "This is really well written!" There is a sense of national epic! ”

“… No, it's all history..."

After the Anshi Rebellion, Anxi lost contact with the Central Plains, and the Western Regions became an enclave, and the central government did not know that the Western Regions were still there. The Tang army held the Western Regions for 40 years and finally overturned.

Looking at Chang'an in the northwest, there are countless mountains in pity.

Wang Shi has been in charge for 40 years, and he is no longer in Yumen Pass...

The last Tang Anxi Army, alone in the Western Regions for 50 years, finally fought in a lonely city, and was full of white-haired veterans in the heavy snow;

Speaking of this, Shen Xudong continued: "Actually, many historical stories are suitable for adapting movies, such as the undefeated god of war Murong Chui, the twilight of the hero, and the 100,000 Dragon City cavalry that he had worked hard to accumulate for a lifetime was destroyed. The white-haired Murong Chui passed through the Hepi to mourn the soldiers who died in the war, howling... By the way, the thirteen strong men return to the Jade Gate..."

Why aren't these things recorded in the history books?

Many people don't even know the name of Guo Xin, the commander of the Tang Anxi Army!

Because, we have never mentioned the tragic war between Tang and Tibet, only mentioned the two sides of the two sides of the peace and one alliance...

"If I didn't have time, I would have to shoot this scene!"

Director Feng doesn't have a magic barrier yet...

had to wait for him to enter the 100 million yuan director club, and then he thought about proving that he was not only a "comedy New Year film", and transformed into a literary and artistic "Night Banquet"...

And then being scolded wildly...

Shen Xudong thought for a while, and then said: "No matter who makes Cheng Long, it must be Cheng Long's movie, and it will not be regarded as the director's work... There is no need for a director like you to work with such actors..."

"It's also..."

Feng Xiaogang nodded: "I listened to them, when filming "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", Jiang Wen couldn't sit still, and all kinds of noise took the lead..."

……

The Japanese actor of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" is called Nakai Guiyi, and after returning to Japan, he also wrote a memoir about the filming of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", Nakai Guiyi was very dissatisfied with Jiang Wen in the book, because Jiang Wen often went to guide director He Ping, which was a bit noisy...

He Ping and Feng Xiaogang have a very good relationship.

Back then, he served as the producer of Feng Xiaogang's "Party A and Party B" and "See You or Leave".

He Ping starred in "Big Names", as far as the "China's audio-visual industry, this oil and water is big, take this DVD as an example, China has 27 million DVDs, each DVD player consumes 10 DVD discs a year, each DVD we take 1 yuan in royalties, this 1 yuan times 10 is ten yuan, 10 times 27 million, this is 270 million..."

can be regarded as a representative figure of the fifth generation of directors.

was actually directed by Jiang Wen to make a movie...

Cheng Long is actually the same, several masterpieces "Police Story 1 and 2", "Plan A", and "Plan A Sequel" are all written, directed and acted by him...

The personal color is too strong, the basic script, the director, the martial arts style, and the narrative are all built around this core protagonist, and everyone else is a supporting role.

Therefore, in order to perform in a style that suits him, he must meddle in the affairs of the venue, and he can only direct and act by himself, so that other supporting roles can integrate into his own personal electronic film style...

There is no right or wrong, it can only be said that movies are so diverse.

In fact, Cheng Long also did something to set the director in the air - "Serious Crime Team".

"Serious Crime Team" was originally called "Beast Criminal Police", the prototype was the kidnapping of the rich Wang Dehui by robbers, director Huang Zhiqiang, found Chen Desen, Zhang Zhicheng, Chen Wenqiang and other screenwriters, adapted this case into a movie, named "Beast Criminal Police", starring Li Lian.

However, due to the salary contract issue, Li Lianlian fell out with Golden Harvest, and the filming was forced to be interrupted, and later Golden Harvest asked Cheng Long to save the scene, and changed the name of the movie to "Serious Crime Unit", and the director was still Huang Zhiqiang.

Director Huang Zhiqiang is a typical third-class film director, who likes to add some violent and sexual elements to his films.

Cheng Long doesn't like that his movies have inappropriate ingredients for children!

Golden Harvest had to finally compromise with Cheng Long and abandon Huang Zhiqiang and be replaced by Chen Zhihua...

Including "Drunken Fist 2", this film was led by Cheng Long to prepare to raise funds for the Hong Kong Stuntman Association to build an office building, and took out his classic IP in his early years - the famous work "Drunken Fist"...

A large number of stuntmen were invited to participate, including Liu Jialiang...

During the filming process, the two also had differences due to different concepts, and in the end, Liu Jialiang simply gave up the director's position after less than two weeks of filming, not as a director, but as an actor...

There is also a small story in this, that is, after Liu Jialiang finished filming "Drunken Fist 2", he felt that this became an authentic Cheng Long work that did not suit his liking, so he immediately invited Andy Lau, Li Jiaxin, Zheng Shaoqiu, etc. to direct and act in a "Drunken Fist 3" by himself, and arranged to be released in the same year as Cheng Long's "Drunken Fist 2"...

In fact, Cheng Long's "Drunken Fist 2" began to be called "Drunken Fist Ultimate" by Golden Harvest, but the producer of "Drunken Fist 3" is Li Jiansheng, a member of the family class...

Cheng Long ordered to change the title of all the previous poster movies to "Drunken Fist 2", so that "Drunken Fist 3" could be released justifiably...

Shen Xudong told Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Guoli about this: "I feel that Cheng Long's character is a very big brother, you give me face, I give you face!" ”

Zhang Guoli was surprised: "How do you know so many things?" ”

"I made "Screening Room", telling the past of Hong Kong films, and I have seen a lot of materials! And I'm very interested in gossip and scandals, including behind-the-scenes information, and I basically remember it at a glance..."

"Then who do you think is suitable to be the director of "Glory of the Tang Dynasty"?"

Shen Xudong scratched his head: "I didn't think about this..."

"Really?"

Shen Xudong smiled, and then said, "... Xu Ke, after all, the environment of his "New Dragon Gate Inn" is very close to "Glory of the Tang Dynasty"..."

"Xu Ke..."

Zhang Guoli looked at Feng Xiaogang, and the latter said: "He seems to be filming "Seven Swords"... Ciwen's play! ”

"You recommend one more!"
