"The Mermaid" after Zhou Xingchi, Shen Xudong is not ready to participate...

It's really that the agreement is too outrageous - Ray, as the main control investor, benefits 20%...

Of course, the stock of the light rose by 40%, and by the way, he had the copyright of "The Mermaid", so Zhou Xingchi put aside the light to make "Mermaid 2", which has not been released.

In the film and television industry, it is customary to tout, and being able to tease each other shows that the relationship is good;

It's already very serious if you don't blow it or black, for example, the wireless five tigers are rumored to have a discordant relationship, and people haven't blamed each other...

Face-to-face criticism is a very serious offensive behavior, which rarely happens, but it is commonplace in Zhou Xingchi!

So, keep your distance...

As for the Spring Festival file in 16 years, there are still many key projects in the company's reserves, such as "The Wandering Earth", "End Brain", "Lonely on the Moon" and "Total War: The Great Wall"...

Forget it, don't mention it, some media asked about "Bright Moon Heaven", and Shen Xudong replied: "Martial arts movies, I will definitely support it..."

……

Actually, filming "The White-Haired Witch" is not interesting!

Chinese martial arts are generally presented by three elements: "family and country hatred", "Jianghu flavor" and "children's love".

Lin Qingxia and Zhang Guorong starred in the so-called classic version of "The White-Haired Witch", in order to tell a story of embarrassment, focusing on the love between children in the rivers and lakes.

When I watched it back then, the deepest impression was of course Lin Qingxia's peerless elegance, Zhang Guorong's living up to it, and Wu Zhenyu and Lu Shaoling's androgynous Ji Wushuang...

But if you remove the personal charm of these big actors, Yu Rentai's movie is afraid that the dark tones that run through the whole film and the exquisite art design of Emi Wada will leave the most.

It's a very chicken movie, you can watch it or not...

Zhang Zhiliang wants to play something new!

The Jurchens invaded the country, the power and treachery reigned, the loyal ministers shed blood, starved all over the wilderness, and the conspiracy was endless...

These things are not new to director Zhang Zhiliang, and the "Ink Attack" he directed before has put a lot of effort into depicting the background of the times.

became famous, "The Last Eunuch in China", he has a lot of experience in expressing turbulent times.

The problem is that whether it is Liang Yusheng's original work or previous repeated adaptations, the focus of "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" is love.

Therefore, while explaining the big history, we must be entangled in petty feelings and hatreds.

The whole movie can be summed up by one word 'chaos'!

In fact, any successful martial arts film adaptation in Chinese films, such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" or "New Dragon Gate Inn", is a short story in itself;

In folk legends, only the "Huang Feihong" series, "Di Renjie" and other plots are almost not too coherent, and each episode can be called a separate chapter can be called a success.

Including Jin Guliang's classic works, there are also original works with rich historical backgrounds and connotations, coherent stories, and many characters such as Yang Jiajiang, Sui and Tang Heroes, or Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness, and there are few excellent works in film adaptation.

The few things that have been talked about are all extremely condensed "East Evil and West Poison" or the comedy "Deer and Ding Ji" series.

The rich amount of information in the original work, the distinct personalities of the characters, the wonderful story with constant dramatic conflicts, and the fast narrative rhythm of the film were not well resolved in the golden age of Hong Kong films.

But in this category, there are too many film materials that can be regarded as a treasure trove that are difficult to discard.

Therefore, despite the decline of martial arts films, there are still adaptations such as "The White-Haired Witch", "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", and "Dragon Babu" have come out...

What so many talented people couldn't do in the golden age of Hong Kong cinema, can they be done now?

However, Shen Xudong is really curious, Zhang Zhiliang's previous "Butterfly on the Shoulder" has already been pounced once, and he actually had the opportunity to shoot "Bright Moon Heaven", I can only say that the director is too easy to mix...

In the original time and space, the theater chain has high hopes for this drama, and the behind-the-scenes lineup is very strong:

Photography: Lin Guohua;

Editing: Kwong Chi-leung;

Art Director: Xu Ke;

Art Design: Tim Yip;

Action Direction: Dong Wei, even the original music is Jin Peida...

This schedule, this production, this cast.

made it a little better, the box office was at least close to the level of "Painted Skin 2", and the final box office did not reach 400 million, which shows its quality.

What? Green Desire Play?

Shen Xudong was sleepy...

This movie really sucks, and there's almost nothing to be desired...

……

"They told me that this is what the market wants, and it's good for my image..."

Backstage, Shen Xudong really couldn't help but ask Fan Xiaopang if he knew that "Bright Moon Heaven" was bad, and the latter was very honest...

There is no actor who doesn't make bad movies, but what follows is that the commercial value has risen all the way...

The original time and space, Yang Xiaomi is a typical example, the first starring "Far Cry", is an out-and-out bad movie, she has no acting skills in it, mainly selling face and figure, but because of the fans' efforts, the box office is as high as 90 million yuan, and the bad film proves her popularity.

In addition to her, the audience really has no other reason to enter the cinema, so the capital rushed up, and she took over 17 movies in those years.

Most of them are bad movies, but her commercial value continues to explode...

On the contrary, many people only take good movies, such as Hao Lei, Yu Nan, etc., who take good films, pay good acting skills, and win awards, but they are not popular enough, they can't be the protagonist in big productions, and they can't make much money...

"Bona and Wanda's project, how many actresses can refuse?"

“… Well,"

Shen Xudong had nothing to say, Fan Xiaopang remembered something: "I heard that director Zhang Yi shoots three dramas a year in your company?" ”

“… He is very free, he can shoot whenever he wants, he is willing to shoot three films a year or one film every three years, I don't have any opinions..."

Fan Xiaopang was very direct: "Don't pretend to be stupid, you don't understand what I mean?" ”

Shen Xudong shook his head: "You don't have a show... Director Zhang Yi doesn't like you like this! ”

"Why?"

"You don't have that violent..."

Fan Xiaopang was very unconvinced: "I'm not fierce enough? ”

"You are too beautiful, and the beauty is aggressive, there are very few people who can play, and if the impact of your appearance on the screen is too strong, the expressiveness of your acting skills will be weakened... This can't be helped! ”

“… Do you have a suitable role for me in the next play? ”

"Next time..."Shen Xudong changed the topic: "By the way, why did "Bright Moon Heaven" find director Zhang Zhiliang? ”

Fan Xiaopang explained: "Director Xu Ke recommended, and I have collaborated with him in "Ink Attack", I think it is good..."

"Well..."

Xu Ke has a good relationship with Zhang Zhiliang, Wen Zhang Wu Xu, and he is also hypocritical with Huang Jianxin - he is the producer of "Back to Back, Face to Face"...

But Zhang Zhiliang is making feature films, that is, he is more literary and artistic, and after going north, he doesn't know the mainland at all, and he can't shoot what he is good at...

After chatting for a while, Shen Xudong turned around and wanted to leave, but Fan Xiaopang grabbed him: "Don't be in a hurry to go, how many people will I introduce to you?" ”

"Xu Jiayin? I don't want to know him..."

“… It is Qi Jianhong of Wentou Holdings... He's also a good friend of Cheng Long..."
