Chapter 387: Angels and Dolls

The angel action series starring Li Saifeng in the original time and space can be regarded as a classic action movie in Hong Kong, especially among the action movies with women as the main perspective, the angel series and the royal sister are the most classic.

The characteristics of the "Angel Action" series are that it does not hesitate to use manpower and material resources, shoot across borders or abroad, and the action shootouts are definitely rare Hong Kong-style gunfire action scenes, and Li Saifeng has also become one of the hottest action actresses in the eighties and nineties with the Angel series.

But in fact, in later generations, neither Angel Action nor Royal Sister is a classic.

The most praised fiery gun battle scene of Angel Ops at the time of its release was not a classic in the eyes of later audiences, it was very noisy, and it was unnecessary, but it was true.

This is also the reason why the royal sister is a little stronger than the angel action, because the royal sister is mainly fist and foot kung fu, and does not use guns much, and the fight of women whether they hit men or women is very interesting in itself, and it is much more interesting to use hands than to rob.

The idea of Angel Action and Royal Senior Sister to play the card of female star is very good, and it is very marketable to play the card of women in the environment of rising female status, and not only women like men but also like it.

But except for the second part of the Royal Senior Sister, Qiao Feng doesn't like the other stories very much, because in his opinion, it is indeed very ordinary, which is why Qiao Feng only chose the Royal Senior Sister 2 to shoot but there was no follow-up production.

Originally, Qiao Feng was also not interested in the angel action series, but one day two months ago, Qiao Feng suddenly remembered another series of films related to angels, called Thunderbolt Jiaowa.

Thunderbolt tells the story of an angelic organization to deal with the bad guys, there are three women in the movie who are beautiful and intelligent, they accept and complete difficult tasks under the control of the behind-the-scenes boss Charlie, and in the process of completing the task, they fight with the bad guys, they fight in the sky and on the ground, which is very popular, and the box office is quite high, not only that, but also the three women are on fire at once.

Then a thought flashed through Qiao Feng's mind, anyway, they are all organizations composed of angels, so why not make Angel Action and Thunderbolt Jiaowa into a series.

Operation Angel focuses on the Southeast Asian market, while Perak Boot targets the European and American markets.

Originally, the Angel Organization was the criminal nemesis operating in Southeast Asia, and it had done a lot of things in Southeast Asia, and later the scope of the Angel Organization's activities expanded from Southeast Asia to Europe and the United States.

Starting from Hong Kong, the first part focuses on the Southeast Asian market, and then it is also distributed to Europe and the United States, but depending on the actual situation, if the response is followed by a gradual increase in Europe and the United States, if the response is generally continued to attack Southeast Asia, and the situation of stabilizing the Southeast Asian market will be pushed to Europe and the United States.

However, to synthesize a series, the first thing you need to do is overhaul the script.

The first part of the Angel Operation is about the first time that the police of Hong Kong, Japan and Thailand joined forces to burn down the poppy fields on the border of eastern Thailand, and a huge Asian drug trafficking syndicate sent killers to retaliate against the police, and the Interpol who participated in the burning of drugs was killed one after another, not only the police of the three countries were furious, but the Interpol headquarters was also very shocked.

Because the original version wants to break into the market, the number one among the angels is himself, and he invited the purple idol Hideki Nishiro to star.

After Qiao Feng rewrote the script, first of all, there is no script in this angel organization, whether there will be a situation in the future, anyway, the positive role will definitely not be given to him, although the bad guy in it is a Hong Kong person, but he is said to be played by Gali Oshima, this Qiao Feng has also changed, the bad guy has become said himself, but he chose Hui Yinghong to play.

In addition to the actors, the biggest change is that the angels no longer use guns at every turn, because gunfight movies are really the best in Hollywood, because people can't ban guns, you can get any gun, there are all kinds of guns sold in supermarkets, Hong Kong movies are more than gunfights with Hollywood, and the romance of gunfights can be, but to say that the popularity of gunfights is really incomparable, and it is impossible to get guns and missiles in Hong Kong, it is pure nonsense, and it will make people play.

If you want to export, you have to export what is unique to Hong Kong, what European and American audiences need, what they want.Why did Li Xiaolong, Cheng Long, and Li Lianjie all enter Hollywood, and they are very successful, because they can play, they can play Chinese kung fu, which is what American audiences like, and what Hollywood movies lack.

Therefore, Qiao Feng's biggest change in the script is the action scene, the original version of the angel action, whether it is the bad guys or the angels, is basically a firearm, no matter what, bang gun first, or the bomb will blow up, and even the bad guys will shoot a group of people with guns for a long time, and there is nothing else in the ears except for the crackling gunshots, giving people a very noisy and uncomfortable feeling.

After Qiao Feng re-adapted, the shooting scenes became only a handful, and there were few gunfight scenes, and even only the villains used guns, and the three angels, two women and one man, were able to defeat the stubborn enemy as long as they were bare-handed.

In fact, it is a routine with Cheng Long's movie, not to mention not bringing a gun, even if you carry a gun, you don't shoot, and if you grab a gun during a fight, you won't use it for various reasons, and even use it as a throwing weapon to smash your opponent.

In order to achieve such an effect, Qiao Feng invited Tang Jili, at this time, of course, Tang Jili was only not famous, and he had done martial arts actors, martial arts stand-ins, scene notes, assistant directors, producers and screenwriters for wireless, Shaw Brothers, and Jiahe, like Zhou Yanfa, Zhang Guorong, Zhang Manyu, Zhong Chuhong, and he had done all the stand-ins for these people, but he was also mixed in general.

But Qiao Feng knew that this would be a famous director in the future, and several movies that specially directed Cheng Long were quite successful, so Qiao Feng simply invited Tang Jili to be the director of Angel Action, and by the way, he also participated in the screenwriting and action design.

In addition to the director looking for Tang Jili, martial arts instructor Qiao Feng specially hired Liang Xiaolong, one of the four tigers in Hong Kong, to serve as a martial arts instructor and train Li Saifeng.

When Liang Xiaolong was invited to the mainland for cultural exchanges, he said in an interview: "This is the first time in my life that I have set foot on my motherland, and the audience is warm and friendly to me like relatives, which deeply touches me, and as a Chinese, I silently wish the motherland's economy to take off!"

Because of this sentence, Liang Xiaolong was banned by Taiwan, and no one dared to ask him to film on TV or movies, but Liang Xiaolong was disfigured because his wife was retaliated against, and he spent a lot of money on treatment, and spent four million Hong Kong dollars before and after, which is not a small amount for Liang Xiaolong, who mainly shoots TV, it can be said that he is bankrupt, and he was banned, so it can be said that his life basically collapsed.

Please Liang Xiaolong, firstly, I want to help him, secondly, Liang Xiaolong's kung fu is really good, he has real kung fu in hand, he was once besieged by many people outside his martial arts hall, Liang Xiaolong beat down everyone, but he was not injured, this ability to be a martial arts instructor is no problem at all.

In addition to Li Saifeng, another female angel is Huang Qiuyan, and the male is ATV's He Jiajin.

Liang Xiaolong's training is rigorous, of course it is easy for Huang Qiuyan, but it is difficult for Li Saifeng and He Jiajin, they have to train for four or five hours every day, and eight or nine hours when they are more.

It's no wonder that Li Saifeng is tired and unwilling to pick up the mess left by Wang Xuxian.
