About "The Grandmaster", in fact, it is about "Master"...

Because the story of "Master" is relatively simple, it tells a person who fights against martial arts.

Very good to tell!

"The Grandmaster" is too complicated...

So the plot became: an unknown southern martial artist, with unique skills, wants to make a name for himself in Tianjin, the martial arts capital of the Republic of China, and start a sect.

At that time, the martial arts was already in the twilight.

There is no food left for the darts!

The things that our ancestors had studied for hundreds of years seemed to be suddenly useless in the face of Western guns.

Wu Xing still holds the shelf, hides the stunts, and does not learn them.

The martial arts hall has become a lucrative business, the master uses the apprentice, the apprentice calculates the master, forms a gang, and bullies the widow with the crowd, and the grandmaster puts the widow in front, oppressing the newcomer with airtight rules and not being able to get ahead.

If a newcomer wants to become famous, even if he has good kung fu, he can't go against the entire martial arts.

can only be under the guidance of martial arts masters, and use methods that are not on the table to secretly cross Chen Cang.

In reality, if you want to insert a foot in the rivers and lakes lined with sects and erect a signboard, you must have far-sightedness, long-term planning, three or five years, and the layout and aftermath will take up most of it.

We must do things that make a name for ourselves, and we must also do things that are not visible on the inside.

Accepting apprentices is not for passing on art, but for selling.

This thing, from the very beginning, was broken.

Master is proud, but he is not inflexible.

When he was young, he experienced family changes, from rich to poor, ran darts, served in the army, saw a lot of three religions and nine streams, knew that he would do whatever it took to the end, and if he talked too much about benevolence and righteousness, things would not be done.

But martial artists also have infatuation, and there is an intrigue between sects for fame and fortune, and Wing Chun and gossip can also find their origins.

Sincerity and selfish desires are intertwined, and the love for women is a use, but also a fetter, and the apprentice who was originally just a simple use also unconsciously has a sense of affection.

But after all, things have come to an irreparable step, martial arts has become fat in the eyes of warlords, and the strong boxer is the best sign of the overseers, the signboard attracts soldiers, there are soldiers and there is territory, with territory, money and power will follow, this is a higher level of ecology.

To put it bluntly, Wing Chun wanted to go north, and then met the rules and times...

The role of Gong Er was deleted, and Shen Xudong simply let Wang Zhi play Zhao Guohui, who was the teacher...

Wang Zhi and Tong Yali are roommates in the same dormitory in college, and then Yaya went to act in "The Best Family" when she was a freshman, and was selected by Er Dong to star in the TV series "New Love" in her sophomore year.

Wang Zhi is more embarrassed, she was also famous in college - she acted in the drama "Pan Jinlian", at that time she was called Wang Zihuo...

Good figure and full of charm.

So, it's good to play Zhao Guohui, cheongsam show!

Shen Xudong did not answer the question of the Golden Lion Award, but said: "Actually, the "Grandmaster" I originally planned to shoot was to tell a lot of stories about martial arts during the Republic of China.

But the things that our ancestors had studied for hundreds of years seemed to suddenly be useless in the face of Western guns.

This is the tragedy of an era.

The script was almost ready, and then when I was chatting with Mr. Xu Haofeng and Mr. Zhang Dachun, I heard Xu Haofeng say that Ip Man had tried to upload Wing Chun north... Of course, he didn't make the trip, but I think it's interesting to hypothesize, what if he did go north? ”

"After three months of desk work, we researched a bunch of rules and regulations of the Republic of China's martial arts, and then made up such a story!"

"The previous script is invalidated?"

"Hmm..."Shen Xudong nodded: "I pay attention to feelings when making movies, sometimes I met a person yesterday, and I feel that he is very interesting and impressive." But then I can't meet it again, life is like this... If you don't feel it, don't force yourself! ”

"What about the Golden Lion?"

"Actually, I wasn't going to go to any film festivals, but Meghan Ellison, the investor in the United States, wanted to win the awards, and if you want to win something during the awards season, you definitely need to participate in major film festivals... Then, I went to Venice! ”

"Megan Ellison?"

"Her Annapurna Pictures company paid $8 million for the North American rights to 'The Grandmaster'..."

"And then you won the Golden Lion?"

"That's right," Shen Xudong's expression was very calm: "It may be more in line with the taste of the jury, after all, the play of "The Grandmaster" is really powerful..."

……

Actually, there is another reason for changing it to "Master", because the narrative of "Master" is more conventional, not so fragmented narrative, and not obscure.

Shen Xudong is a blockbuster director!

The box office of "Rise to Fame" has exceeded 200 million, and "33 Days of Broken Love" has exceeded 300 million, so this time "The Grandmaster" can't stop at about 100 million, right?

At the end of the PPTV interview, Shen Xudong joined Wang Zhi and went to record "Super Interview"...

Why are you in such a hurry?

Because "The Grandmaster" will be released on September 9, there are three dramas in the same schedule: "Da Wusheng", "Captain America", and "Global Love"...

The National Day file was given to "New Chinese Ghost Story".

Tomorrow, Donnie Yen, Xie Miao and Jin Shijie will come...

By the way, there is also a "One Man's Martial Arts" scheduled for December 31, which must be released this year, Donnie Yen has announced that the next drama will fight against Zhao Wenzhuo...

Tsk, "Envoy Identity"!

Then Donnie Yen was hacked for decades...

Unlucky, caught up with the competition for the right to speak between the mainland entertainment industry and the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment circles, and caught up with the general trend of history, it doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong, who netizens support more, who is right!

Pulled back, at half past nine in the evening, Shen Xudong took Wang Zhi downstairs to eat - just after a discussion, both sides were a little tired...

The taste of Lao Guang: stick beating abalone...

This is normal, actresses and directors...

One has a heart, the other does not take the initiative, does not refuse, is not responsible...

was eating, Wang Zhi suddenly remembered something: "Director, is "The Grandmaster" going to be screened in Chinese opera?" ”

"Yes..."

Shen Xudong nodded and glanced at her: "What?" Nervous? ”

"Not really... It's kind of fun..."

"It feels like you're getting home, right?"

"Hmm..."

Shen Xudong smiled: "When "The Grandmaster" is released, you will have more choices!" ”

"Choose?"

Shen Xudong said succinctly: "There are several Hollywood productions that invite you to participate..."

“… It's true? ”

Shen Xudong was very serious: "I will never deceive women!" ”

“… Thank you. ”

"No thanks, we've all pushed..."

"Huh?" Wang Zhi was surprised: "Why push? ”

"The characters are so bad, they are basically flirtatious roles, and the scenes don't exceed five minutes..."

Wang Zhi lowered his head and whispered: "That's also Hollywood..."

Shen Xudong pretended not to hear it and changed the subject: "Do you know the "Crime City" series? ”
