Chapter 283, I can't stop it

["Is this the lion's roar? Who does Tai Chi? ”

"Ah, lion roar, tai chi!"

"It's a waste of decoction if it's cured, forget it."

"Yes."

"Oh no, Brother Chen, drive quickly! By car!

As soon as the picture turned, the charter man didn't know when he was sitting in the front seat of the car, and the charter wife didn't know when he was sitting between Brother Chen and the master.

An axe helped the little brother run over: "Big brother! ”

The master reprimanded loudly: "What kind of brother! Do you have a sense of public morality, noisy and noisy, and the neighbors don't have to sleep? People have to go to work tomorrow, get out! ”

The younger brother looked at the charter man and the charter wife, and walked away with interest.

The master snorted: "You scum! ”

The charter lady posed Bruce Lee's classic pose to Brother Chen.

The car started and left, Brother Chen took out his cigar in fear, the master's lighter couldn't be turned on, and it suddenly hit, but it burned Brother Chen's hair, and the master accidentally took the wine jug and poured it on Brother Chen's head in a hurry, and the fire instantly became bigger.

Then the camera is everything, and what is seen in the frame is a car with fire and smoke disappearing into the night. 】

"Hahahaha......"

"I'm laughing to death."

"Lu Bu and Tian Ji are too good."

Seeing this paragraph, the audience laughed and talked, and the atmosphere of the entire theater was very relaxed and happy.

Hu Jing smiled so much that her eyes turned into two crescents, the corners of her mouth curled up with a graceful arc, lying on Lu Bu's arm, and whispering: "How do you do it in a serious way without laughing?" ”

Lu Bu spread his hands helplessly and said, "When I was filming, I really didn't think there was anything funny. ”

He was telling the truth, and the set was so quiet at the time.

In fact, this is the "laughing fruit" created by Zhou Gaochi with music, just in the scene just now, when the hair was feverish, the song "I Don't Go to Hell" was used, which is a typical use of music contrary to the current situation to create a huge contrast, which makes people laugh.

When it comes to the soundtrack of "Kung Fu", it is very distinctive, the music style is very diverse, but it is not chaotic at all, whether it is Chinese music or Western music, it is pure, and there is no mixture of Chinese and Western music.

In the movie, there are mainly seven folk music, "Ambush on All Sides", "East China Sea Fishing Song", "Zheng Feng", "Heroes Defeated the Dadu River", "Chuang General's Order", "Sichuan General's Order" and "Little Knife Club Suite", and "Song of the Wanderer" and "Sabre Dance", as well as "Don't Forget Tonight" and "Dream Man", two songs of the old magic capital in the thirties and forties, etc.

All the soundtracks were completed by Huang Yinghua, at that time, because Zhou Gaochi had high requirements for music and the control was also very strict, which gave Huang Yinghua a lot of pressure, more than 100 minutes of film soundtrack, Huang Yinghua wrote it over and over for three or four months, I don't remember how many versions I wrote.

The final result is good, presenting a perfect to perverted soundtrack feast, whether it is to the smallest details, or to the whole movie, the soundtrack is almost completely synchronized with the plot, there is tenderness, funny, amorous, nostalgia, and more magnificent momentum and passionate rhythm.

Among them, the most outstanding song is "As Long as You Live for a Day" composed by Liu Jiachang and adapted by Huang Yinghua, which appeared in Ah Xing's robbery of the dumb girl, and Ah Xing's final encounter with the dumb girl.

When Ah Xing robbed the mute girl, the rhythm of this song matched the development of the plot and the performances of Zhou Gaochi and Huang Shengyi, which was so perfect that it was shocking.

And in the end, Ah Xing and the mute girl met, and under the soothing saxophone playing, Ah Xing and the mute girl went back to their childhood in a circle, peaceful and quiet but shocking, like a full stop, which gave the movie a happy ending.

"It's good that a lover will eventually become a family." Hu Jing is still immersed in the two-way love between Ah Xing and the mute girl.

"I didn't use too much pen and ink, and it was also an old-fashioned hero saving beauty, but in the hands of Xing Ye, this love became very attractive and touching." Lu Bu sighed again and again.

"I saw a sentence on the Internet before, which very aptly summarized Xingye's movie, which said, 'I missed the love of my life, Zhou Gaochi, who satirized everything in the movie, but there was no irony of love', which is also something that other directors can't learn." Hu Jing said slowly.

"Yes, love has become elusive in "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", love has become simple in "Domestic Lingling Paint", love has ended tragically in "Journey to the West" as in reality, love has become important since "God of Food", overriding everything, to the sincerity and steadfastness of love in "The King of Comedy" under Yin Tianqiu's courage to confess to Liu Piaopiao, it is not 'I love you' but 'I raise you', love in "Kung Fu" is romantic, and it is what love should look like." Lu Bu talked eloquently.

When he was a child, the mute girl handed Ah Xing a lollipop, and Ah Xing chose to leave; When she grew up, the mute girl handed Ah Xing a lollipop again, and Ah Xing ran away again; Whether it is Ah Xing when he is a child or Ah Xing when he is an adult, when justice is overwhelmed by evil, love becomes extremely fragile in an era when black and white are reversed.

Ah Xing must pick up kindness in order to have love, and finally with a kind heart, love returns to the most innocent moment, just like a child's Ah Xing and the mute girl walking into a candy store holding hands.

It is said that Miyazaki has created a beautiful dream for countless children, Zhou Gaochi is not, although the movies he made are all commercial films, but behind the funny story, he has always used a childlike perspective to put forward various thoughts and questions to the adult world, bringing a beautiful fairy tale.

"Kung Fu must be a big hit at the box office, I said!" Hu Jing suddenly said very firmly.

"The box office will not be bad, but the word of mouth is not easy to say, and Xingye's movies will be scolded very badly when they first come out." Lu Bu was still a little worried about this.

"For such a good movie, no one will scold it, right?" Hu Jing couldn't find any flaws, the action, special effects, soundtrack, dubbing, acting, etc. were all perfect.

"You forgot, there's also me as a box office poison." Lu Bu made a joke of his own.

"There's nothing wrong with Brother Chen you played, it's okay, you will vividly show the ruthless axe gang starring in the gang, especially when you kill your sister-in-law and younger brother, you show no bottom line and ruthlessness to the fullest, if anyone dares to say you, I will go to him to theorize!" Hu Jing raised her fist.

"This role only lasted 10 days in total, but it had a different feel from the previous roles, and it was more ...... Yes" Lu Bu paused, and finally used the word "interesting" to describe it.

"You, you've played too many roles of the same type for a period of time, and you're tired, and it's very fresh to suddenly play a role that you haven't tried before." Hu Jing analyzed.

"Those who understand me, Jingjing." Lu Bu said with a smile.

"What's the name of that dumb actress?" Hu Jing asked.

"It's called Huang Shengyi, what's wrong?" Lu Bu replied.

"The eyes are clear, pure as jade, although there is not a single line, but with that tear, you can harvest the hearts of countless boys and girls." Hu Jing couldn't help but praise, she was indeed fresh and charming, and then said: "She is going to book a place for the new Four Little Flowers." ”

"Isn't it Shuangbing Sidan, why is there a new Sixiaohuadan?" Lu Bu said suspiciously.

"Alas......" Hu Jing sighed lightly and said: "It's old, a generation of new people replace the old, and the post-80s generation of actresses led by Liu Yifei has pushed us to the beach." ”

"Eighty years of life is not old, let alone youth." Lu Buyun said lightly.

Hu Jing didn't dwell on this problem, touched her stomach and said, "I'm a little hungry." ”

Lu Bu also had a little, and immediately said, "Then go have supper." ”

When the two of them were looking for food, the audience who left the audience was also talking about "Kung Fu".

"This one is still the same little person to big hero as Xingye, it is very classic and meaningful."

"Yes, the little people counterattacked, full of sorrow and joy."

……

"Finally, it is no longer the personal show in Zhou Gaochi's previous movies, but a group of heroes dancing together, the characters of Huoyun Evil God, Chartered Father, Chartered Wife, Coolie, Tailor, Fried Ghost and other characters are vivid and unique, unforgettable!"

"My favorite is Brother Chen, and Sauce Explosion, both of them are serious and funny."

……

"This is Ah Xing's kung fu dream, Xing Ye's kung fu dream, why not our kung fu dream."

"It's really cool to watch the action of playing, I like this kind of comic style."

……

Lu Bu's worries seem to be superfluous, judging from the feedback from the audience who watched it, he liked it a lot.

But, is that really the case?

The next day, some professional film and television newspapers, film publications, and website forums published comments on "Kung Fu".

"Entertainment Film and Television News": An axe gang looking for thugs everywhere to fight against a slum, the protagonist is a small person at the bottom of the society, when he was a child, he learned the palm of the god and wanted to be a righteous person, but he was beaten by the society, and then he was determined to be a bad person, but he had a good conscience and turned against the water to be a good person, and finally counterattacked to defeat the first master and influenced the other party, plus a touching love as a foil, very clichΓ©.

"Film Fortnightly": Zhou Gaochi's works have shown his determination to seek breakthroughs in his performance style from "God of Food", to "The King of Comedy" is his own work, but it is from this time that his works have become nondescript in order to carry more independent and even hopeful and in-depth ideas, which may be the failure of the transformation and creative exploration of "Shaolin Football", so that Zhou Gaochi hopes to turn over with "Kung Fu", but from this point of view, this time it is still overkill. It's not for every actor.

Maopuwang: "Kung Fu" is different from Tang Bohu's exaggerated and funny, and it is not all laughter and tears like Yin Tianqiu and Supreme Bao, but he is still the "Stephen Chow works" that the audience is familiar with, not about the debate between "special effects" and "nonsense", the important thing is that as a director, he is forming his own style, which can also be summarized into one sentence, which is a demonstration of Zhou Gaochi's skills in many years of practical experience in filmmaking.

Some people think that the plot is very exciting, and there are no urine spots throughout the whole process.

Some people also think that Zhou Gaochi is exhausted, and at most it can only be a popcorn movie with special effects.

However, regardless of word-of-mouth, it will not affect the box office of "Kung Fu".

From nine o'clock in the morning, the ticket office of the theater began to queue up, in order to maintain the order of the scene, many theaters have sent a large number of security personnel, and installed guardrails and belts at the door of the ticket office.

Although it has just been released on the second day, it has become the focus of major theaters, and intensive screenings have been arranged, but this still cannot meet the needs of the audience, and the tickets for the midnight show have been sold out before the opening of the gold market, in order not to lose this rare opportunity, many theaters have added screenings that night, and the longest screening has even been extended to more than five o'clock in the morning.

After the box office on the day of the premiere received 12 million, the box office performance on December 24 doubled, with a box office of 24 million, breaking the highest single-day box office record of 18 million held by "Hero" in China.

It is also very popular in Hong Kong, and the box office in the first weekend of its release received 29 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Awesome, slashing 36 million box office in two days, more than the box office of some movies in a month."

"100 million can't be stopped."

"100 million? The goal is 250 million for "Hero" and win the box office champion in the history of Chinese films! ”

"Low-key, let's take a look at the stamina first, but it's not a big problem to surpass "No Thieves in the World" and "Ambush on All Sides"."

"They all said it wasn't good-looking, and they ran to see it one by one."

"Back then, "Journey to the West" scolded much worse than this, look at it now, it was made by a god."

……

"Kung Fu" was released in 2004 and 2005, but it is a 2004 movie, even if he was released on December 31, it is still counted as 2004.

Therefore, after seeing this ferocious start, Lao Mouzi and Feng Xiaogang couldn't sit still, one of the champions was threatened, and the runner-up position of the other was probably not guaranteed, but they couldn't do anything, so they could only silently pray at home that "bad reputation" would affect the subsequent box office.

Then something magical happened, perhaps thanks to the development of the Internet, the rise of various online forums, various interpretations of Kung Fu emerged one after another, and more and more details were dug up.

What does it mean to make a good movie? A good movie is moisturizing things silently, and it unconsciously affects life, "Huoyun Evil God", "Axe Gang", "The charter woman has no water", "I see your bones are wonderful", "Don't think that if you are handsome, I won't beat you", "This is called professional", "Am I going to tell you if I have learned the Palm of the Gods?" "A branch piercing the clouds, thousands of troops come to meet" and other nouns and lines, began to become popular in forums, post bars, QQ and other places.

Word-of-mouth is not to say that it has reversed, but at least the positive and negative reviews are seven or three open.

And the box office also went all the way up, and it successfully broke 100 million on the last day of 2004, becoming the fastest film to break 100 million in China, in just nine days.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Chinese New Year's Eve.

LΓΌ Bu was far away in India at this time.

"Congratulations on successfully taking off the label of 'box office poison'." On the other end of the phone, Yu Feihong quipped.

"Uh......" Lu Bu was speechless.

"It's a pity that you can't see the audience's evaluation over there." Yu Feihong sighed softly.

"What evaluation?" Lu Bu asked along with her words.

"It's Brother Chen who you played, and I received unanimous praise, saying that you acted like the boss of that era." Yu Feihong said with a smile.

"At that time, I talked with Xing Ye for almost a night, and I put a lot of effort and thought into it, if I didn't act well, I couldn't talk about it." Lu Bu's dedication to this role is enormous.

"There's another good news......" Yu Feihong stopped halfway through.

"What's the good news?" Lu Bu asked eagerly, scoffing at her act of selling Guanzi.

"Kung Fu" was nominated for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best New Actor, Best Picture, Best Screenplay, Best Editing, and ...... at the 24th Academy Awards and 16 other awards, including two of yours, which are Best Supporting Actor and Best Action Design. Yu Feihong's tone was full of joy.

"This is no ordinary cow." Lu Bu was speechless, and almost all of the 16 awards that could be nominated were mentioned.

"I also sent an invitation to you, and the award ceremony will be held at the Xiangjiang Stadium on March 27." Yu Feihong said again.

"You can attend." Lu Bu made up his mind directly.
