It's really a very difficult thing to tune the dragon.

When filming "Rush Hour 3", Wu Yuan didn't think Cheng Long's acting skills were very poor.

Because this movie is either fighting, or on the way to fight, most of Cheng Long's literary drama is just fighting with his new partner played by Will Smith.

As well as borrowing his mouth, all kinds of speculations about the mysterious organization of the "Ace Secret Service".

It can be said that the movie "Rush Hour 3" continues the consistent style of Cheng Long's movies, that is, witty and humorous jokes + funny and handsome plays.

When making this movie, Wu Yuan felt very relaxed.

The martial arts action is responsible for a professional martial arts instructor, and literary drama is the type that Cheng Long is best at, and almost most of the shots are over and over again.

On the contrary, Will Smith, a Hollywood black superstar, is not very suitable for the style of movies, even if the acting is very good, it takes a lot of time to run in, and there is no less NG.

It's just that on the side of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", it is Cheng Long who has the problem.

It's no wonder that he couldn't beat it later, and he always wanted to transform but couldn't, not only because his martial arts star character is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but also because his literary drama really has nothing to offer.

To put it nicely, everything he plays has the flavor of "Cheng Long".

To put it mildly, it is that no matter what role he plays, he is the same, it is all himself.

Asking him to play a man with eyes like a femme fatale and a belly of intrigue is indeed embarrassing for him.

So what's the solution, Wu Yuan's own choice of actors, tears have to be filmed.

In desperation, he could only teach him by hand, repeating the beats one by one.

A scene that was only less than ten minutes long, Wu Yuan had to shoot for five or six days before he stumbled and finished filming.

Under his vigorous training, Cheng Long finally came up with a performance that satisfied Wu Yuan.

Not to mention how good the acting is, at least it can be regarded as passing, and it is not a play.

What?

Satisfied with a passing grade?

What if it's not!

Cheng Long is at this level, and Wu Yuan is secretly happy to be able to pass!

finally survived this literary drama, and the crew returned to the previous smooth filming state.

Liu Yifei also started her filming of the scene.

"Sissi, move a little neater!"

"Wu Zhi, show her again!"

"Yes, kick your foot a little higher, that's it!"

The martial arts instructor invited from the family class dutifully demonstrated Liu Yifei and adjusted her movements.

Liu Yifei also studied very seriously, her little face was tense, and her eyes were fixed on the martial arts instructor, for fear of missing a small detail.

It's impossible for her to be serious.

The most brilliant part of the role of Weier is still playing.

Although in the early part of the movie, she also represented the Singapore pirates, participated in the rescue of Captain Jack, and argued with Captain Jack, Barbossa and others about whether to gather the kings of the seven seas to fight against David Jones.

But in these literary dramas, she is a supporting role in group dramas, and she does not sing the main drama.

The fight scene is different, although it is also in the scuffle and chaos, but she has a lot of individual close-ups.

The action scenes of Chinese actors have always been the most accepted type in Hollywood, who is called Huaxia has always been a kung fu superstar.

Liu Yifei's own martial arts skills are indeed good.

She still practiced in the crew of "The Condor Heroes", and she didn't hang so many Weiya in vain.

As his first official appearance at Hollywood (the cameo in "Wonderful Night at the Museum" is not counted), Liu Yifei gave 120% of his strength to play this role well.

This also made Kayla, who also had a role in these scenes on the side, a novelty.

is also an actress, she plays just a weak governor's daughter, from the first to the third, she was kidnapped several times, threatened several times, and there was no serious fight.

And as soon as Liu Yifei came, the click was a beating, a tiger and a tiger dancing with a seedling knife, and any pirate group performance close to her was not her enemy.

"Crystal is really powerful, is every actor in Huaxia very good at fighting?"

The beautiful British Rose seemed to have a little boy hidden in her heart, eager to watch Liu Yifei and the group actors rehearse and play, and asked Wu Yuan with great interest: "Is Chinese kung fu difficult to learn?" ”

"I'm referring to the one Bruce Lee learned, called Wing tsun, right?"

Wu Yuan glanced at Kayla in surprise, "You British people also know about Wing Chun?" ”

"Of course!" Kayla compared a classic Bruce Lee move on the spot, which is "Ah! In fact, this is the hand-raising gesture of Wing Chun.

"Bruce Lee's kung fu is also famous in the UK."

This made Wu Yuan a little surprised.

He also thought that young people in Europe and the United States no longer knew Bruce Lee, after all, it had been more than 30 years since he died.

Maybe it's because Kayla herself is in the entertainment industry?

He asked uncertainly, "Really?" Do many young people in the UK know Bruce Lee? ”

This time, Kayla glanced at Wu Yuan in surprise, "Of course, Chinese kung fu is very famous in the UK, and the reason for being famous is Bruce Lee." ”

"Of course, you have to add Jackie Chan, who is very famous in the UK now."

"Is that so?" Wu Yuan touched his chin and pondered.

He has greatly overestimated Bruce Lee's influence in the global film industry.

But now he suddenly discovered that Bruce Lee's influence was still higher than he imagined.

As the first Chinese movie star, the first Chinese kung fu superstar, and a film actor who spread the word "Chinese kung fu" all over the world, his influence abroad seems to be far beyond the imagination of Chinese people.

After all, when Bruce Lee was making movies in Hollywood, China was in an unspeakably turbulent period, and no one would pay attention to a Chinese film actor on the other side of the ocean.

By the time people in China paid attention to and knew about Bruce Lee's deeds, he had been dead for a long time, and the Chinese people could not clearly recognize how powerful Bruce Lee's influence was through hearsay.

How high is Bruce Lee's status abroad?

In 1973, "Enter the Dragon" starring Bruce Lee was a huge success at the box office of $23 million as soon as it landed in North America.

This film is known as the greatest kung fu movie in history, and it is listed by the United States Congress as one of the 25 most important films in American film history, and is respected by the European and American film circles as one of the films that changed the world.

It is ranked first in the UK as one of the top 10 greatest kung fu movies of all time.

In 1973, Marvel used Bruce Lee as the prototype to create Shangqi.

In 1979, the government of Los Angeles designated June 8 as Bruce Lee Day.

In 1993, the United States issued the dollar for the 20th anniversary of Bruce Lee's death.

In 1993, the United States commemorated the 20th anniversary of Bruce Lee's death and produced the movie "The Legend of Bruce Lee".

In 1993, Bruce Lee won a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Japan's Fighting Karate magazine named Bruce Lee one of the top ten martial artists of the 20th century.

In 2003, Hollywood held a Bruce Lee commemoration event.

In 2004, Bruce Lee was called the father of MMA by the UFC president.

In 2004, Bruce Lee was named one of the 100 greatest heroes and icons of the 20th century on Earth.

In 2005, Bosnia and Herzegovina covered a statue of Bruce Lee to fight ethnic divisions.

In 2006, Bruce Lee was listed on the "Time" Asian Hero List.

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, a country with a large number of Muslim believers and a complex ethnic composition, Bruce Lee successfully defeated the president, Gandhi and other candidates and became the only bronze statue in Central Park.

After Bruce Lee's death, many countries in Asia, Europe, and the Americas spontaneously organized themselves to set up bronze statues for this great Chinese man.

A monument to Bruce Lee was erected in the United States, and because his fans were so fanatical that almost every teenager in New York had a nunchuck, leading to frequent street fights.

In the end, the city had to issue a nunchuck, which was not lifted until 2018.

Even in 2018, Afghan Alister Abbas became popular on the Internet because of his imitation of Bruce Lee.

The term "Bruce Lee" has 455 million searches on Google, but only 100 million on Baidu.

Both of these web apps were born after Bruce Lee's death, but he still contributed a lot of search volume to Google, more than four times that of Baidu in China.

Bruce Lee's news quality and search volume are far behind most martial artists and artists, and Bruce Lee is a person who cannot be bypassed in the history of martial arts and action movies.

Even in the Internet era, Bruce Lee's news is of high quality and quantity, which is jaw-dropping.

In 2023, the 50th anniversary of Bruce Lee's death, "Enter the Dragon" will also be restored in 4K and will be re-screened in London, Vienna and several other cities on August 11.

Bruce Lee's popularity and influence in foreign countries are actually far beyond the imagination of most Chinese people.

Everyone knows that he is a well-known kung fu superstar in Hollywood, but they don't know that he is so well-known.

It can be said that before the emergence of Cheng Long and Yao Ming, two Chinese people representing China, Bruce Lee's popularity in the world.

In any street interview, ask a foreigner who you know in China, and 99% of them blurt out Bruce Lee.

Rubbing his chin, Wu Yuan was thinking very seriously.

Speaking of which, Oscar seems to be quite fond of biographical movies.

"A Beautiful Mind", "The Queen", "Mozart", "The Last Emperor", "The Theory of Everything", "The Iron Lady", "The Social Network", "The King's Speech" and other films that won the best picture and the best actor/actress are all biopics.

Moreover, Hollywood's biopics are very inclusive, with biopics featuring famous scientists, political figures, historical figures, sportsmen and even big stars.

If there is a chance, he Wu Yuan can also make a biographical movie based on Bruce Lee, and try to hit the Oscar for Best Picture!

Bruce Lee is famous and influential in Hollywood, and is even considered to be an important actor who changed the history of Hollywood films.

With him as the protagonist to shoot a biographical film, the old white people at the academy will still buy it.

As long as you are willing to spend some money on public relations, winning the best picture is not a dream.

Moreover, Wu Yuan also has a very suitable candidate to play Bruce Lee!

Hong Kong Island actor Chan Kwok-kun!

is to play the four senior brothers of Shaolin in "Shaolin Football", the ghost catcher, and the goalkeeper of the Shaolin team.

It was because he looked like Bruce Lee that he was appreciated by the star master.

In "Shaolin Football", Xing Ye used his role to pay tribute to Bruce Lee, and there are many scenes in the movie imitating Bruce Lee.

is also because his appearance and figure are very similar to Bruce Lee.

So later, when CCTV did the biographical TV series "The Legend of Bruce Lee", it specially asked him to play Bruce Lee, and the acting was simply vivid!

can have such an actor who is very similar to Bruce Lee in terms of image, temperament, and figure to make his biographical movie, then this movie is basically half of the success!

The remaining half is nothing more than a two-hour movie script that takes Bruce Lee's life reasonably and artistically.

Precisely, Wu Yuan still has a little confidence in this regard, and he very much hopes to do it.

Zuckerberg, who is less than 30 years old, can have his own biographical film "The Social Network", how can Bruce Lee not have it?

This person made Chinese martial arts go to the world, changed the status of Chinese overseas, and changed the image of Chinese in the hearts of foreigners.

Let foreigners who think highly of themselves begin to face up to Chinese Americans, and kick the Chinese kung fu superstar who has the sign of "The Sick Man of East Asia" written on it.

There has to be a biographical film about his great life!
