Chapter 293 The Most Handsome "Zhang Wuji" in History ([-]rd)

Speaking of this fight scene, we have to mention Cheng Xiaodong, the action designer of this play. As one of the few action directors in Hong Kong, his understanding of martial arts has already begun to emerge from this play.In particular, the elegant and elegant style of his style is very different from the solemnity of previous Hong Kong martial arts films.When the audience appreciates these movements, besides their blood boiling, they also enjoy the beauty of watching a dance.

"It turns out that action movies can also be made like this!" This is the emotion that many people expressed after watching this action scene.

Of course, for the filming of this scene, there is another person who has contributed, and that is the guest actor of this drama-Hong Jinbao.

As we all know, Hong Jinbao was born as an action actor, and he is very unique in action design.In this regard, Cheng Xiaodong is still his "junior".This time, Hong Jinbao got on Chen Xiaotang's thief ship and was pulled by him to make a guest appearance in this movie. Originally, Fatty Hong had made up his mind not to do too much, and GOME-OVER after filming his own part.But when he arrived at the shooting scene, seeing so many dragon and tiger martial artists gesturing back and forth, he inevitably felt itchy. Coupled with Cheng Xiaodong's humility to "ask for advice", Fatty Hong couldn't bear it anymore, and he played the role of Wu Zhi by talking too much for a while. .Seeing that he couldn't help opening his mouth, Fatty Hong thought again, at most I will say this once, and next time I won't talk too much even if I suffocate to death.But when it was time to shoot the next martial arts scene, Fatty Hong couldn't help but "complain" again, the range of motion here is too small, and the range of motion there is not enough, he should hang Wia harder, don't be indifferent... After he talked so much, Cheng Xiaodong began to humbly ask him for advice again.

Fatty Hong: "..."

In this way, Fatty Hong, who couldn't control his mouth, became half of the action director of the play.

In fact, it is precisely because of Hong Jinbao's "accidental" joining. In terms of these action designs, it can be regarded as the best of the two. Shocking audio-visual effects, facing these shots, all audiences have only one word "like" in their hearts.

The story unfolds gradually, reaching the middle part.Zhang Wuji, played by Chen Xiaotang, grew up, but was framed by Song Qingshu, played by Tang Zhenye, and Zhou Zhiruo, played by Li Meixian, and fell off a cliff after being rescued by Xiao Zhao.

There are three most exciting parts in this scene.

The first clip is the scene of Zhou Zhiruo, a beauty starring Li Meixian, out of the bath, while several Wudang scum played by Liu Qingyun are peeping.

In the second highlight, Zhang Wuji was beaten by Song Qingshu and others. Zhang Wuji realized that he had been deceived. He recalled the scene of his parents' death in his mind. .

The third highlight is that after Zhang Wuji fell off the cliff, he followed Shi Jian's "Huogong Toutuo" to learn "Nine Suns Magic".Among them, various complex exercises are dazzling, comparable to a wonderful acrobatic performance.

Among these three clips, especially the second one, Zhang Wuji felt hysterical anger when he realized that he was deceived by Song Qingshu and Zhou Zhiruo.Coupled with the scenes of Zhang Cuishan committing suicide on the big screen, Yin Susu committing suicide next to Zhang Wuji and other scenes of bloody feud, people can't help but feel a strong sense of substitution, full of blood, wishing to enter the screen and kill the couple.

Faced with such an angry plot on the big screen, some people in the cinema couldn't help but cursed.Chen Xiaotang knew that such a reaction was normal. On the contrary, if people were silent, it meant that the plot of the movie failed to resonate with everyone.

Sixth aunt Fang Yihua, Fatty Wang Jing, action director Cheng Xiaodong, and guest actors Fa Ge, Liu Dehua and others watched the film while paying attention to the audience's opinions.This time they heard the audience's scolding and the anger wandering in the air, they looked at each other with a gratified smile on their faces.

Looking at the Zhang Wuji he played on the big screen, Chen Xiaotang suddenly had a wonderful feeling. He felt that through such a role, he indirectly controlled the audience's emotions.This feeling is absolutely wonderful, and now he is immersed in such a pleasant feeling.

At this time, Chen Xiaotang finally understood why so many movie fans would like an actor at the same time, because that actor could establish an unbreakable relationship with those movie fans through the role he performed.If you have to ask, what is this feeling?It can be said to be - the self in the dream!
Yes, everyone has a martial arts dream. In the dream, he incarnates himself as the hero who is a chivalrous man who walks over the roof and walks over the wall. If an actor can realize the dreams of these people, then he will undoubtedly become so many. People's "dream" spokesman.Becoming the shadow of myself in the dreams of many audiences, I ask, can a person not love himself? !

Having said that, the reason why Zhang Wuji played by Chen Xiaotang can give people a strong sense of substitution is also inseparable from his honed acting skills.In the previous life, this role was played by the big star Li Lianjie, but everyone said that Li Lianjie was the best in kung fu, but his acting skills were not flattering, because watching his movies, many scenes were almost all with a cool expression, very There are few muscular changes.Chen Xiaotang is different. He has at least read the "Morality and Cultivation of Actors" by the Soviet film master Nitanslavsky that his classmate Zhou Xingchi lent him. Layers, the first one = facial muscles twitching, the second one is full of tears, but gnashing teeth to prevent them from flowing out.The third one is the inner torment and struggle, which burst out through angry eyes that are about to breathe fire.

In the previous life, Li Lianjie basically used the second trick, but instead of tears full of pain, he gritted his teeth fiercely.This time Chen Xiaotang came to play this role, which raised the level to a level, and turned it into acting with eyes.

...........................

Seeing that the movie was about to reach its peak, Chen Xiaotang got up and greeted Brother Cheng Long and Huang Boming, saying, "Sorry, I'm going out to smoke a cigarette..." Then he left the movie screening hall in the dark and went to the balcony outside the hall In the place, I saw the stars outside, and a burst of fresh air hit, which made people feel refreshed.

Chen Xiaotang took a break from his busy schedule, walked to the edge of the balcony, lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and felt extremely comfortable.

Although the show has not finished yet, Chen Xiaotang is confident that it will be a big hit at the box office.Because in his mind, this drama is a classic that must not be missed!But now this classic is about to re-glow from its own hands.

However, Chen Xiaotang suddenly thought of a question, he couldn't plagiarize Hong Kong and Taiwan classic movies to his heart's content in the future, what would he do?Chen Xiaotang searched everything in his mind carefully, and finally came to a very frustrating conclusion. Apart from movies, songs, and TV, he knew too little about other things, such as real estate, stocks, and the World Cup. , Current affairs and politics are so pitiful, it seems that I can only plagiarize!But in order to reduce a little guilt, Chen Xiaotang decided to copy Hollywood!

After deciding to make the classic Hollywood series into HK, Chen Xiaotang's thinking suddenly seemed to diverge. If you can really adapt the classic Hollywood series into the HK version, will it stimulate the thinking of HK people and expand their thinking? So that they can create better movies! ?

Why did HK movies decline in the late 90s! ?The first point is of course HK's own reasons. The region is small and resources are limited. Except for a few companies, the investment in other films is not large, but this is the largest number of films!And this kind of small-investment movie will naturally have flaws when it is produced, and at the end of the 90s, the audience's eyes are already critical, watching these shoddy movies will naturally be disappointed with HK movies!On the contrary, the investment in mainland China is much larger, making HK's attractive actors seek development in the mainland. At the same time, Hollywood's continuous high-tech productions, coupled with the influence of Japanese and Korean movies, have led to a sharp loss in the Southeast Asian market. This exacerbated the decline of HK movies.

Another reason is that there are not enough filmmakers, and a large number of Hong Kong film mainstays have flowed to the mainland and Hollywood, leaving a vacuum of HK film talent in an instant!Of course, this has nothing to do with the film market in HK at that time. Since the mid-90s, filmmaking is no longer a purely artistic act. Filmmakers must survive in the gap between art and commerce so that HK films can go global. , There are more and more restrictions. The theaters will teach you what themes to shoot; the distributors will teach you which commercial elements to add; the publicity will teach you how to choose actors; the insurance company will tell you which products are insured. Yes; even the accountant of the movie theater will come to teach you, saying don’t shoot that scene, it’s too expensive, the actor you want to use can’t be used, the scene you want to shoot can’t be shot, and the script that has been set has been changed to pieces. Your work is no longer your own work, but a work that has been trampled by countless people. Many filmmakers just can't bear this restriction and leave!
The film investment is small, and the funding is reduced, which will directly affect the shooting time. From 80 to 90 days to shoot a movie in the [-]s, it takes more than ten days to shoot a movie in the [-]s. It took more than ten minutes to make a film, pursuing quickness and losing creation and details!

Another Chen Xiaotang himself feels that HK movies have a feeling that there is nothing good to shoot. They either keep repeating the old tunes or play new ones. However, after the innovation, the audience said that they are not like HK movies. After all, the previous HK movies are like myths. It is memorable. Naturally, everyone's expectations for him will be higher, so if we change Hollywood-style movies to HK movies now, will there be more room for the development of HK movies in the future?

At the very least, I can start from my upcoming "Doomsday Journey", try to make Hollywood movies HK, make HK movies international, gradually expand the scale of production, and then use a lot of high-tech, so that in the future it can effectively reduce the impact of Hollywood movies on HK. If it succeeds, then HK movies will no longer be stuck in the tiny territory of HK, but will truly open their minds and go to the world.

Chen Xiaotang began to look forward to it, although he would have to wait more than ten years to know whether his current efforts would be effective, but Chen Xiaotang didn't care, because he saw hope, he was no longer as lost as before!Although I still can't completely solve the defects of HK movies that I know, but I am not the only one who loves HK movies!
When Chen Xiaotang was still thinking about the infinite future of HK movies, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his hand, tsk, why did this cigarette end before taking a few puffs!Before he threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, "Is there any reason? Everyone is so nervous inside, but you are here leisurely!" Fatty Wang Jing's voice sounded behind him.

"I'm just taking a break from my busy schedule. Don't act like a resentful woman, okay?" Chen Xiaotang glanced at the fat man, threw away the cigarette butt, and crushed it on the ground.

The fat man walked to Chen Xiaotang's side, leaned his back against the wall, looked sideways at the cigarette butt Chen Xiaotang threw on the ground, and said, "Smoking too many cigarettes is not good. Don't you know that smoking is harmful to your health?"

"Hehe, some people say that it is easy to lose your kidneys if you pick up too many girls, but why do you always pick up?" Chen Xiaotang asked the fat man with a glance.

"How can picking up girls be the same as smoking? Although you have to get rid of them like cigarette butts in the end, picking up girls is all about skills and psychological tactics. Your smoking is a waste of life! Besides, you don't know the charm of my fat man. Many beautiful girls I can't resist, I will die or live because of me, alas, who made me so chubby and cute?! Men are too cute, so they are troublesome!" "The fat man said triumphantly.

"Tick, have you ever looked in the mirror? Do you know how Zhu Bajie died? He was scared to death by himself! And you said that you are a top-notch picker, so why don't you dare tell your current girlfriend about your feat? "Chen Xiaotang said with a smile, "I heard that she is attracting those cronies around you recently, developing her internal response, and preparing to play lurking with you! Or, I'll lurk there too?"

"No!" the fat man exclaimed, "Why is she like this, she can't trust me at all! How can she get me to date her sincerely by making tricks in private?" He looked very disappointed, as if an infatuated man saw himself The girlfriend seems to be hooking up with each other, and she is disheartened.

"You're so playful, it's right for a girl to develop eyeliner, just take precautions!" Chen Xiaotang couldn't help teasing him.

Fatty was speechless.What do you mean, you deserve to be watched?Although he is not a gentleman, he is still a romantic and unrestrained man!Tang Zai, you underestimate me!
