Chapter 80 Backstab (4/4)
Ten years later, which pure action movie left the deepest impression?
"One Man's Martial Arts", the younger generation was granted the title of Yu Xiute and came to receive instruction. Today, they are divided into superior and inferior, and life and death are decided;
"Slaying the Wolf 2", Zhang Jing fights two;
In "The Master", a man of true talent and arrogance still has to bow to the rules of the world;
Of course, what impressed me the most was the "Gong Shou Tao" with the blessing of Qian's abilities!
Maybe the original intention of "Gong Shoudao" is to promote Chinese martial arts culture, but the audience only saw Pay Palm, Ant Legs, Huabei Quan...
I have realized that only the rich can defeat martial arts in the world. One hundred million yuan can bring a thousand catties.
However, "The Way" gave Shen Changlin a reminder - action movies should try their best to find action stars to star in them.
In fact, it is not that Shen Changlin has never had the idea of Hong Kong movies.
However, in Hong Kong movies 10 years later, we can no longer see the unrestrained and freehand confidence of the golden age, those magical strokes made out of nothing, the pride of being proud of the world, and the compassion of helping the world and saving the people.
but…
Without talking about anything else, let’s talk about the action design of "The Fury", where Donnie Yen jumped out of the car to save the baby...
That kind of brilliant stroke of inspiration, really, except for the directors in the Greater Bay Area, no director from any country or region in the world can come up with it!
Every year, there are some high-quality productions in the Greater Bay Area.
"Eavesdropping", "Chill", "Anti-Corruption Storm", "Anti-Drug", "Walker", "The Bomb Disposal Expert", "Equator", "Chasing the Dragon", "Wushuang"...
Although the leading actors in Hong Kong films or co-productions are always these veteran actors, the reputation of these films is mostly passable!
The audience also recognized it.
As one of the major centers for Chinese-language films in the Greater Bay Area, Shen Changlin has no reason to let it go!
Moreover...this circle does not have a unified mentality!
Some are unequivocally patriotic, some are centrists, and some are simply opposed...
Treat them to guests, accept them as dogs, and behead them.
There are three paths, treat them differently, don’t kill them all at once.
"Slaying the Wolf 2", with Shen Changlin's blessing, you can definitely join Wu Yue!
…
After eating, Shen Changlin was covered in sweat. Yang Fan played with him for a while, and then he said: "It's really troublesome!"
"What's wrong?"
"Sun Entertainment is a company that launders Mihua. It is used to launder money... Do you think we would cooperate with such a company?"
Yang Fan smiled: "How can it be so serious? Xi Mihua is the president of the Macau Film and Television Production Association!"
Shen Changlin shook his head: "...It's very serious. Let's run our business in the right way and don't have anything to do with it."
Otherwise, why would Bona's vice president jump off the building?
Taiyang Chuanhe also fell?
Yang Fan probably understood what he meant, and asked doubtfully: "Then you also talked about "Slaying the Wolf 2", you said it with all your energy!"
"How can I leave if I don't tell you?"
Then he uttered a curse word: "What a waste of time! The key is that "Slaying the Wolf" is a good subject!"
"Then... let's change the title of the film without using their copyright!"
Shen Changlin hesitated: "Is it okay? Huang Baigao's side..."
"If it's a big deal, I'd better contact Huang Baigao and ask him to stop following Mihua. Let's register a company here and let him take charge!"
"Over here? Macau?"
“Shenzhen or Xiangjiang are all fine, they are all in the Greater Bay Area anyway!”
Shen Changlin nodded: "...Okay, contact the Emperor..."
Also, if the subject matter of "Slaying the Wolf 2" were filmed in the mainland, it would not be possible!
"...Then let me contact Huang Baigao first..."
"It's best to talk to Wu Jing."
"no problem!"
The two chatted for a while about the filming of "The Treasure Hunt" and then took a taxi back to the hotel...
…
The meeting with Huang Baigao was just an interlude. Afterwards, Xi Mihua arranged several more meetings, but of course, they were all rejected by Shen Changlin.
The reason is simple: I am filming and can't spare time.
He is really filming with peace of mind, and he has a feeling of "hide in a small building and become one, and don't care about winter, summer, spring and autumn."...
"Big Buddha" was released, but he didn't even attend the premiere...
"That Year in a Hurry" had a box office of over 800 million, and he just sent a Weibo post to congratulate Su Lun.
By the way, the web series "The Year in a Hurry" was launched, just 20 days after the movie version was released...
It had a good reputation, but Sohu refused to sell it to a TV station!
It is to be broadcast exclusively, and even the price is increased to 4.5 million for a single episode...
Maybe they are aware of the traffic-draining effect of hit dramas on video platforms!
Sohu's self-produced dramas in those years were pretty good, and it also produced several hits, such as "The Year in a Hurry", "Forensic Doctor Qin Ming", "Wuxin Master", and yes, "Addicted"...
Why can't I play anymore?
Poor.
You see, Fuji Xun Fuji Xun invested heavily in Fuji Xun video;
Baidu enhances iQiyi’s strategic position;
Ali Baba fully acquires Youku Tudou.
In the video world, BAT has formed a three-legged alliance...
Sohu is not left behind!
The original exclusive broadcast rights of "One Piece" and the exclusive cooperation platform of "The Voice of China" were all given up.
Talking back to "Big Buddha", after the film was released, the reputation was very good, and the Douban score once exceeded 9 points. However, the box office was a bit embarrassing, with only about 40 million in the first weekend.
It almost didn’t compare to Donnie Yen’s partner Jing Tian’s “Special Identity”…
There is no way, the box office of serious themes is like this!
A bunch of experts jumped out and said that the market is not mature enough...
Shen Changlin just retweeted a plot analysis of "Big Buddha" on Weibo. The ID seemed to be "Wang Li has an extra macro", and then ignored it.
As soon as he entered the shooting mode, he was completely absorbed in his work and had no energy to worry about anything else.
Shi Shi knew him very well, and besides saying good night regularly, he had no idea of visiting the class...
Just because she doesn't come doesn't mean others don't come!
Even if Shen Changlin is very reluctant...
Oh, this time it’s Yang Xiaomi.
…
At the dinner table, Shen Changlin accompanied Yang Xiaomi...
I booked a meal at the hotel.
Yang Xiaomi looked at Shen Changlin: "Why don't you speak?"
"Oh..." Shen Changlin reacted: "Aren't I waiting for you to speak?"
"Why do I feel like you don't welcome me?"
Shen Changlin raised his head and glanced at Yang Xiaomi: "You are thinking too much."
"to be honest!"
"Nonsense, we have been filming this scene for a week. All I think about every day is filming. How can I have time to welcome others?"
"…Then shall I go?"
Shen Changlin hurriedly said: "No, you're already here, let's have a meal and if word spreads, my reputation will be ruined!"
"...Then I will visit the class with great fanfare, but I don't want the reputation anymore?"
Shen Changlin took off his hat, scratched his head and said, "What's the matter with you?"
"Why did you cut your head bald?"
"...To avoid going out...don't laugh, I'm imitating Victor Hugo!"
"Hugo?"
"The one who wrote "Notre Dame de Paris", it is said that in order to force himself to create with peace of mind, he shaved his head so that he could not go out to meet people."
Yang Xiaomi's eyes widened: "Is there such a thing?"
Shen Changlin looked at his position helplessly: "...Don't put your feet on my lap. I'm telling you, it's very unhygienic. We are eating!"
"Then you mean...that's it after eating?"
“…”
