Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 869

Hu Jinquan, Leslie Cheung, Chen Yulian, Li Saifeng and other film creators lined up on the stage.

Before the start of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", they accepted a brief interview.

"The film "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is the most special work I have ever filmed since filming."

On stage, Hu Jinquan began to chat about his feelings about the movie "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

The reason why he said it is the most special is because this movie is the first time he returned to the mainland to shoot a movie.

Prior to this, Hu Jinquan was either in Baodao, or in Bangguo and other places, looking for a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to shoot.

It can be said that returning to the mainland to shoot a movie is not only a very rare thing for him, but also for others.

However, the production team has issued a gag order from top to bottom for filming in the mainland.

No one is allowed to tell this matter. If the outside world asks, they will say that it was set up in Xiangjiang and Bangguo.

Even for a place like Guilin landscape, you can recognize where it is just by looking at it.

But sometimes, the difference between admitting and not admitting is still very big.

If "Legend of Sword and Fairy" wants to be shown in Baodao, it must be killed that this movie did not go to the mainland for filming.

As for whether Baodao believes it or not, it depends on whether Lin Daoqiu's skills are good enough.

"This movie is the hardest movie I have ever filmed, but I am very satisfied with the final result, so I am also very pleased."

As the leading actor, Leslie Cheung, it can be said that he has suffered a lot in the movie "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Fortunately, when he was filming "Lotus Hegemony", Leslie Cheung began to systematically train in martial arts.

And he has been filming TV dramas in ATV in recent years, and he has also filmed several ancient costume or modern action dramas.

So for Leslie Cheung, playing scenes is not the most difficult part for him to overcome, the most difficult part is the difficult local shooting conditions.

"Actually, Young Master Rong is the hardest one in our show. In many difficult fight scenes, he plays in person without a substitute. I really admire him."

Lin Yueru, played by Li Saifeng, has always been by Li Xiaoyao's side.

It can be said that she and Leslie Cheung had the most rivalry scenes, so she is very clear about this.

"Aman actually suffered a lot in this drama. Everyone knows that Lin Yueru is a girl who grew up practicing martial arts, so it is difficult to play the role of Lin Yueru well."

"Everyone, don't look at Aman's delicate appearance. When it comes to practicing kung fu, she is very serious and can endure hardship."

For the impression of Li Saifeng, whether it is Leslie Cheung or Hu Jinquan, including Chen Yulian, they all admire this little sister very much.

You must know that it must be a very big challenge for Li Saifeng to suddenly let her play a role like Lin Yueru for a person who has no foundation in martial arts.

Being praised by everyone like this, Li Saifeng looked very embarrassed.

"I heard from Mr. Lin before that the special effects of this movie cost 4000 million yuan. I was scared to death at that time."

As the host, Dong Biao couldn't help but mention this matter again in front of the audience.

Most of the audience present didn't know about it yet.

So when Dong Biao finished speaking, there was a burst of exclamation at the scene.

Lin Daoqiu actually didn't want to take this matter as a selling point, but now it seems that he can't do otherwise.

"Mr. Lin, since everyone is so curious about this matter, how about you come up and chat with everyone about the special effects of this movie?"

Dong Biao took the initiative to invite Lin Daoqiu.

Lin Daoqiu, who was sitting next to Zhong Chuhong, could only smile and nod, then stood up from his seat and walked towards the stage.

After taking the microphone handed over by Dong Biao, Lin Daoqiu first smiled and then spoke.

"Actually, when the special effects of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" started, there was no set amount of money to be spent. I didn't know until the end that the film actually cost 4000 million."

"If I had known that this movie would cost so much money, I might not have made it."

Although Lin Daoqiu said so, in fact, he never thought of limiting how much "Legend of Sword and Fairy" would cost.

Otherwise, when he handed over "Legend of Sword and Fairy" to Moli Studio, he could first set the upper limit of the special effects fee.

"Mr. Lin, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" spent so much money, do you think this movie will be able to pay back in the end?"

Liu Zhirong next to him directly asked Lin Daoqiu the doubts in the hearts of many people present.

"In fact, many people have asked me this question. What I want to say is that no matter whether "Legend of Sword and Fairy" can be paid back in the end, from the current point of view, this drama has been satisfied in terms of plot, martial arts, and special effects. If you meet my request, I don’t care if you lose money or not.”

Only Lin Daoqiu could say such grandiose words.

If someone else said this sentence, I'm afraid they would laugh and say that they were swollen in the face to pretend to be fat.

"The trend of special effects movies will not change. Even if "Legend of Sword and Fairy" fails to meet expectations, I will continue to invest in special effects movies."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted immediately.

At this time, Hu Jinquan and other film creators had already walked off the stage.

After everyone took their seats, the theater lights slowly dimmed.

As the big screen slowly lit up, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was officially presented in front of the audience.

At the same time, on the other side, at the premiere scene of "New Shushan Swordsman", the movie has already started for more than ten minutes.

For movies of this kind, many people who buy tickets to enter the theater maintain a kind of curiosity.

They watched too many martial arts and kung fu comedies before, and now such a fairy tale movie suddenly appeared.

Different from monster movies, the martial arts and special effects scenes are jaw-dropping.

At the beginning of "New Shushan Swordsman", special photography technology was used to shoot the scenes of the mountains.

There are many strange rocks and smoky scenes, which are jaw-dropping.

For ordinary audiences who have never been exposed to special effects movies, the opening of "New Shushan Swordsman" is indeed full of surprises.

However, the opening 10 minutes is all about war scenes that have nothing to do with Xianxia movies, which is a bit disappointing.

If it weren't for the scenes that appeared at the beginning of the movie, the audience might mistakenly think that this is an ancient war movie, not a fairy tale movie.

However, Tsui Hark did not keep everyone waiting too long. After more than ten minutes, "New Shushan Swordsman" slowly revealed its true colors.
