"A Good Show" is Huang Bo's directorial debut after more than 20 years, written, directed and acted, and won nearly 1.4 billion box office in one fell swoop.

Of course, this is not something that people do, they may be struck by lightning, how can Su Changqing be so cheating his friends.

Huang Bo was also cooperating with Huang Yang's program to choose singers during this time, and he was very familiar with Dou Wei.

The ending song of "A Good Show" was written and sung by Dou Wei's daughter, but the child has not been born yet.

"Taiping" has been popular at the domestic box office, with 37 million in half a month, surpassing "My Sassy Girlfriend" and becoming the box office champion of the domestic film of the year.

However, there is still a huge gap from "True Lies", which David Landau introduced last year and screened in April this year, which created nearly 900 million yuan at the domestic box office.

The film grossed more than $300 million worldwide, one-third of which came from Chinese mainland.

900 million in 95 years, how much is equivalent to more than 20 years later?

It is not objective to simply convert it into 3 billion 4 billion according to inflation or purchasing power index, you must know that 25 years ago, a unified domestic cinema chain had not yet been formed, the film and television market was very immature, and the purchasing power of the people was also very different from today.

It can only be said that the energy of domestic audiences has always been very huge, and it is not that the market will explode after ten or twenty years, but the enthusiasm for domestic films is far from enough.

Who can be blamed for this, of course, themselves.

Art films are used to show the level to meet the niche, and it is always commercial films that support the commercial market, which is far from sufficient in China.

The gap is very obvious, for example, the production cost of "Taiping" barely reached one million US dollars, which is already a large production, and two years later, "Party A and Party B" is only 500 million US dollars, and "True Lies" is 120 million US dollars, which is not a grade at all.

Low-cost things have good quality, and may even look high-end, but they usually can't be sold at a high-end price, unless you meet a fool, and it's not easy to catch up with others.

True Lies was supposed to make a sequel, but when 911 happened, Cameron was keenly aware that the genre was obsolete forever, and the project was abandoned.

Of course, this film is very bad from today's eyes, CIA agents infiltrate, assassinate, and explode all over the world without telling his wife every day, and his wife is also bent on being a spy to find excitement, and she was almost cheated, and most of the shots will be sprayed into Xiang.

If it is paired with the former CIA director's phrase "We lie, cheat, and steal", this film will be sprayed like a dog.

It is conceivable how much people around the world loved the United States back then, and Xiang was willing to eat it.

Of course, it is a bit sour to look at the problem this way, but when they are in the position of competitors, it is difficult for domestic film practitioners to balance their mentality, whether they are ambitious and talented or born at the wrong time, they feel uncomfortable watching this kind of film to make hundreds of millions of dollars anyway.

In between writing the script, Su Changqing went to Beijing Martial Arts School.

Beijing Martial Arts School, formerly known as Shichahai Sports School, Jet Li was born here, and became famous after filming "Shaolin Temple" in 82.

The school is very small, in fact, this is also the Beijing Wushu team, and students with good grades can be selected to join the wushu team and become professional athletes.

There are very few students in the school, and after nine o'clock is the time for cultural classes, Su Changqing didn't expect to find someone at this time, so he wandered around the campus.

One of the advantages of this school is that it does not require doormen.

After turning around, I was surprised to find someone in the instrument room.

In a huge practice room, only one person was practicing his spear, dancing vigorously.

Su Changqing didn't go in, stood at the door and shouted: "Wu Whale!"

Wu Whale stopped when he heard this: "Who?"

"Someone is looking for it!"

"Who's looking for me?"

"I'm looking for it, the border is urgent, and 100,000 soldiers respectfully invite the god of war to come out of the mountain!"

Su Changqing has always felt that only Wu Whale is qualified to cooperate with this plot, and today he finally has a chance, so he doesn't vomit or feel unhappy.

Wu Whale is only in his early twenties this year, and he is still a little green, and his smile is like a bun: "Who are you, what are you kidding, I'm busy." ”

Su Changqing walked in with a smile: "Stop first, sharpen the knife and don't cut the wood." ”

Wu Jing is already a professional athlete of the Beijing Wushu team, and only won the championship of the national martial arts competition elite gun and sparring last year, and he also played Tai Chi very well.

He probably thought that Su Changqing was from other martial arts teams, and hesitated for a while: "We know each other?"

"I don't know you yet, my name is Su Changqing. ”

Wu Jing was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted: "You are the director of "Taiping"?"

Watching the movie, I actually remembered who the director was, and this young man had a future when he saw it.

Su Changqing smiled and nodded: "Have you seen the movie?"

Wu Whale became excited: "I've seen it, it's very beautiful, it's exciting enough!"

But then he looked at the front and back doors: "Did you come in and say hello to our coach?"

Still need a hello?

Su Changqing also followed him back and forth: "What's the matter, you have an ambush here?"

"No, our coach doesn't like to come to me for movies," Wu Jing approached with a gun and whispered, "What are you looking for me for, making movies?"

asked directly enough, it seems that Su Changqing is not the only one looking for him to make a movie.

"No, I'm here to worship you as a teacher, do you believe it?"

"Don't be funny. ”

"I'm really here to make a movie with you, are you interested in talking?"

Wu Whale looked embarrassed: "I have a competition next month, and people have been asking me to film for the past six months, but they have all been rejected by the coach." ”

Since "Shaolin Temple", domestic martial arts films have been very hot, and since he won awards in national competitions and showed his face, people have been coming to the door constantly, but they have been rejected by the coach.

"I can wait," Su Changqing flicked the tip of the spear: "Let's find a time to talk first?"

Wu Whale hesitated: "Okay, I'll see you at the school gate in two hours." ”

"Okay, I'll see you at the school gate in two hours," Su Changqing didn't delay his practice, turned around and walked a few steps and couldn't help but turn around and ask: "Jet Li is your senior brother, right?"

Wu Jing nodded: "Yes, he and I are both Coach Wu Bin's apprentices." ”

I have to say that this coach Wu Bin is really awesome, he can still talk about luck when he teaches one, and two are real skills.

Two hours later, Wu Whale trotted out: "I'm sorry to keep you waiting for two hours." ”

Su Changqing didn't know how long he could come out, so he introduced the movie to a long story short, invited him to lead the male lead, and finally said: "Our movie will start next year, and your game will be over by then." ”

Wu Whale agreed very simply: "I like your movie very much, and I will retire after the competition at the end of the year, and I will follow you to make a movie when the time comes!"

I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, Su Changqing was very happy, and grabbed his hand: "Okay, a word is a decision!"

"A word is a certainty!" Wu Jing was also very excited: "Teacher Yuan Heping said that I am suitable for film and television development in the future, but I must find a good partner, I have been waiting for you for such an opportunity for a long time." ”

This is undoubtedly a smart person, who has rejected many other film and television invitations, and has been waiting for Su Changqing to have such an opportunity.

Su Changqing was a little surprised: "Yuan Heping, that famous action director in Hong Kong?"

"Yes, I made one of his movies in the first half of the year, called "Kung Fu Kid Breaks Love", starring Zhong Liti, and it may be released in a few months. ”

Su Changqing was even more surprised, Wu Whale had already made a film?

"Kung Fu Kid Breaks Through Love", it is difficult to explain when you listen to the title.

This film seems to have been released in early ninety-six, I didn't see it back then, but I heard of it, and it was known for its box office fiasco, only a few hundred thousand, but I didn't expect the starring role to be the kid in front of me.

The key is that the other main creators are all big names, "Shaolin Temple" director Zhang Xinyan directed, action director Yuan Heping, female protagonist Zhong Liti, various reports at that time did not mention the male protagonist, probably because he was originally unknown.

Maybe it's too embarrassing, and no one wants to mention this film after that.

It's really this time and that time, if "Moving Labyrinth" is also released in 96, it will be the box office poison of the year and starring in the movie?
