Chapter 175: Did Hong Kong Man get into trouble?
Nie Feng actually found William Chan, and Bu Jingyun was Gao Weiguang...
"Fengyun" must have a Hong Kong actor - after all, it is a co-production!
Pick and choose, and William Chan can fight.
Xie Tingfeng... Too short in height!
As for Gao Weiguang, he is purely superior in appearance, in addition, he is too hardworking, the first time they met, producer Ma Rongcheng said that he was too white and too exquisite.
Gao Weiguang asked the director for a few days, didn't take a shower or wash his hair, and when he met again, it was so dirty that he scared the other party!
Oh, and the director is Huang Zhiheng - the art director of the "Ip Man" series, and Kwok Zijian.
The two of them are regular partners, and the two have co-directed movies such as "The Legend of Wukong" and "Mr. Monster"...
By the way, there was a little episode, they originally wanted to find Peng Yuyan to play the shocking clouds, but they were directly rejected by Zhong Lifang, and the original words were like this: 'Don't get an inch!' ’
"The Prequel of the Storm", costing 150 million Hong Kong dollars, has been filmed and is in the late stage of production, it is estimated that it will be released in the summer of 13, and there is a high probability of recovering the cost...
Ma Rongcheng really wants Golden Harvest to shoot "Chinese Heroes" again...
"Chinese Heroes" is Ma Rongcheng's famous work, officially published in 82, and in the 80s, together with "Dragon and Tiger Gate", "Drunken Fist", and "Rulai Shenzhang", it is known as the four famous novels of Hong Kong comics, and has countless fans.
What we know better is the version of Ekin Cheng + Nicholas Tse + Yang Gongru, at the end of the film, the special effects scene of Ekin Cheng and Wu Zhenyu fighting on the Statue of Liberty is very spectacular...
In fact, ATV has filmed two versions of TV series, both starring He Jiajin, "Chinese Heroes" and "Chinese Heroes: Chinese Pride"...
"Chinese Heroes" is based on the background of poverty and weakness in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, telling the story of how Chinese heroes led Chinese by Chinese heroes fought against Orientals and Westerners and punished traitors with their strong martial arts in the events of Chinese bullying and Chinese workers being sold piglets abroad as hard laborers.
Frankly... Shen Xudong is not very optimistic about this theme and story!
The reason is very simple, there is no market for the stories of Chinese workers and Chinese people...
After all, now the three generations of Chinese in the United States have dared to fight with blacks.
In addition, the story of "Chinese Heroes" is too nonsense, the protagonist is set - a lonely star who is destined to commit a crime, die without a companion, and live a lonely life, unless he dies first, whoever is close to him will die, and the design of the fight is also a bit fantasy, but it is set in the Republic of China period.
It's easy to make a play!
……
"The Hong Kong comic market is too small, and the popularity of "Dragon and Tiger Gate" and "Legend of the Son of Heaven" in the mainland is too small, I don't have the idea of inspiring Hong Kong comics!"
Zhong Lifang came over to chat with Shen Xudong about "Chinese Heroes", and by the way, talked about "Dragon and Tiger Gate", "The Legend of the Son of Heaven", including "The Legend of the Black Panther", "Dragon and Tiger V"...
Shen Xudong decisively refused...
He had only heard the names of these works, but he had never read them at all!
But he knows that "Dragon and Tiger V", a work with the villain protagonist as the first point of view, killed his own grandfather, several goddess-level female characters were cooled by him, and other people's children were his children...
Knowing this comic, it's because I went to the forum before, and someone discussed the 'torn book plot', which mentioned "Dragon and Tiger V", and directly said, 'A comic like Huang Yulang's words is absolutely psychopathic!'" ’
"If you make movies in the future, all those who invest more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars must focus on the taste of mainland audiences... Do you expect the Hong Kong box office to recoup its costs? ”
"Action movies, police movies and martial arts movies are the mainstay..."
Zhong Lifang immediately asked: "What about the love light comedy?" ”
"Who's playing?"
"Teresa Teng!"
Shen Xudong thought for a while and said, "... Deng Lixin's appearance and acting skills are just qualified... If you want to do it, put the main market in the Cantonese-speaking area. ”
"Good..."
"In addition to "Fengyun" this year, are there any other treasure works?"
"..."Suit Thug", "Kill the Wolf 2" two sequels, "Death Notice" and "Special Identity"..."
"Death Notice" is "The Darkling"...
Find a circle of old familiar faces to star, and arrange some newcomers by the way to make it a pure Hong Kong film!
The director is He Juetian...
Golden Harvest has sprayed a lot of new directors in the Hong Kong circle in recent years!
It's so much better than the original plane!
The original time and space Academy Awards are not only self-sprouting, but also delineate the boundaries in Hong Kong, "The Corridor of Justice", "Muddy Water Drifting", "Hand Rolled Cigarettes", "Flowing Water Falling Flowers" The new actors, directors, and screenwriters in "Flowing Water" are all excluded, including Huang Zihua, a dissident in the cross talk circle.
I only know how to sing praises to those old people...
Shen Xudong didn't pay attention to these, he just said: "You discuss the specific release time with Chen Xi." ”
"In addition, shoot a few more Cult films, I'm going to launch PPTV!"
"Cult films?"
"It's Nanyang magic, Oriental magic and the like... I've also seen a Maoshan Warlock make money in the United States..."
"Grade 3?"
“… Well, it's a third-level film..."
……
The most popular among the media at the celebration banquet is of course Xu Zheng, in addition to the big sale of "Thai Embarrassment", the most important thing is that when Xu Zheng faced reporters, he was polite and answered all questions...
"The box office is not the only criterion for a movie, and I myself don't judge the quality of a movie by the box office, there are some movies that don't do that well at the box office, but I still think it's a great movie. Some movies do really well at the box office, but I don't necessarily like them. ”
"Of course, I have to thank Xu Dong, he told me that I must make a movie with a clear genre, only with a clear genre can I make the audience very clear about what my characteristics are in many blockbusters."
"'Thai Embarrassment' is both an entertainment-oriented pure comedy."
"Is the dividend down?"
"How can it be so fast... The checkout for the theater is three months after the movie is released..."
"That's... How much can you get this time? ”
"I don't know the specifics, I calculated the account that day, and it should be about 60 million..."
"Are you still satisfied?"
Xu Zheng smiled: "Of course satisfied..."
"Will the next one continue to be embarrassing?"
“… There are no concrete plans yet... After a while, I'll talk to Xudong again! ”
In addition to Xu Zheng, Ning Hao was also surrounded by the media, and the question asked him was very simple: 'When will "One Shot in the End" break one billion? ’
"I don't know, this depends on the theater statistics... Actually, I also wondered, in my heart I have never been a box office director, and the box office is not what I pursue, how to tell a good story is my goal, I just want to make fun and interesting things at the beginning..."
"My creation is very free, they don't have any requirements for me, just tell me, you can do whatever you want, as long as it can pass the review and be released!"
"The story of "One Shot to the End" is a small story told by Xudong... And then I spread a little..."
"And what about the next one?"
"There are two projects in the pipeline..."
The two of them are proud, and the frustrated people are in Huayi...
Hua Yi celebrated "Zodiac" - the box office broke 300 million!
Feng Xiaogang also made an appearance, and the appearance time was very short - busy with the Spring Festival Gala!
