Hong Kong Entertainment: The King of Kung Fu

Chapter 312 Really has Qinggong

Yang Ye said seriously: "You came to me, but you came to the wrong person. I am now in a blocked state.

It’s not just me, our company’s top-selling stars, Aaron, A Biao, and Qingxia have all been banned.

The biggest market for Hong Kong films is actually not in Hong Kong, but in Taiwan, and you have many connections in Taiwan.

If Taiwan is offended by a movie, I think the gain outweighs the loss.

So, my advice to you is...don't look for me! "

The Xiang brothers looked at each other at Yang Ye's words. They came to pay homage to Yang Ye's wharf and gave Yang Ye enough face, but in the end they rode horses in exchange for four words?

Xiang Sheng gently patted the back of his brother's hand to signal him to calm down, and asked humbly: "So, what should we do?"

"Our company is newly established, and the first task is to launch the first shot.

But you don’t have your own talents, so your top priority is to find foreign aid.

No one is more familiar with the Hong Kong film industry than me, and I can recommend a few talents to you. "

Yang Ye took a sip of tea and continued: "The most popular movie in Hong Kong today is "The Best Partner" produced by New Art City. The director of this movie, Zeng Zhiwei, has some clever ideas. You can try to get in touch with him."

"If you have a director, you must also have a screenwriter. Huang Bingyao from the Hong Family Class is a screenwriter wizard. I will talk to him later and help you come up with a hit script."

Huang Bingyao is the deadly scissor kick in "Fight Back to School". He is a talented screenwriter. He has written the zombie series, the Five Lucky Stars series, and the Truant Dragon series.

Zou Wenhuai's biggest regret is that Huang Bingyao died too early!

"The next step is the cast. If Hong Kong films want to make money, they must be sold to Taiwan. If you want to be popular in Taiwan, the easiest way is to hire Taiwanese actors. My suggestion is to hire actors from Hong Kong for the male lead, and hire actors from Taiwan for the female lead. ."

"Another point is to ride on the popularity and follow the trend. For example, there is a recent TV series in Taiwan called "The Stars Know My Heart", in which there is a young actor named Xiao Binbin, who became very popular because he is too cute. You film The movie can invite him over.”

"We have the director, screenwriter, and cast, and finally it's the theaters. It may be troublesome to release it in our theaters. I suggest you get Golden Harvest to release it!"

Yang Ye talked for a long time and suggested that the two brothers go to gather the wool of Jiahe and Xinyi City, and he became a screenwriter on his own.

But what he said made sense, and Xiang Sheng had to nod in agreement.

Yang Ye added: "Of course, looking for foreign aid is only a temporary act. If you want to make a breakthrough, you have to recruit talented people.

The most important thing in making a movie is the director. Among the younger generation of directors in Hong Kong, I am most optimistic about Shaw Brothers' Wong Jing.

This person is very talented, but it is a pity that Sir Shao is not good at recognizing people. He only has such talents but does not know how to recruit them. I suggest you sign Wang Jing. "

Run Run Shaw is not good at recognizing people, and it is already a joke in the industry that he often steals treasures. Xiang Sheng couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and said: "Wong Jing has helped Shaw Brothers film several movies. I have seen them all. He is indeed very talented."

……

Yang Ye gave the two brothers a bad idea, then hugged Hu Yinmeng and left.

Xiang Qi said with some dissatisfaction: "This Yang Ye is so disrespectful!"

Xiang Sheng said: "I didn't originally plan to invite Chen Long. He is his pillar, so naturally he won't let him go easily. Besides, we don't have any money.

What I thought was that after he declined politely, he would recommend us other stars and give us a preferential price.

Unexpectedly, he talked a lot and didn’t even give a star. "

Xiang Qin asked: "What should we do now?"

Xiang Sheng said: "One thing he is right about is that when making movies, you need to ride on the popularity and follow the trends.

Now that comedies are popular, he recommended Zeng Zhiwei to us; Xiao Binbin became popular in Taiwan, so he suggested that we invite Xiao Binbin.

This is indeed a very good strategy, and he also asked Huang Bingyao to write the script for us, so it was not in vain.

Brother Ten, let’s do what he says! "

Xiang Sheng said: "Okay, I'll invite Zeng Zhiwei tomorrow."

……

"I always feel that you have no good intentions!"

As soon as the two got in the car, Hu Yinmeng couldn't help but say.

"How could it happen? I'm the one who helped them with their ideas."

"It's weird to believe you. Every time you are particularly serious, you are holding back bad water."

"Wow, you know me so well!"

Hu Yinmeng became curious and asked, "What pit did you dig for them? Will this movie lose money?"

"Writer Huang Bingyao and director Zeng Zhiwei, it is basically impossible for the film to be a hit."

Yang Ye hugged Hu Yinmeng, let her lean on his shoulders, and said: "I'm not cheating them, I'm cheating Shaw Brothers. As long as this drama makes money, they will definitely listen to me. Shaw Brothers poached Wang Jing.”

"Is that Wang Jing very powerful?"

"It's not that great, he has some talent!"

"Then why don't you just poach him?"

"His father Wang Tianlin is an old man who followed Run Run Shaw and conquered the world. He can't be poached without special means.

Just let the Xiang brothers do such offending things.

And his so-called talent is to make some shit comedy, which only works in Hong Kong.

Even if I poach him, I won't reuse him. In that case, why do I poach him? "

Yang Ye found Huang Bingyao and gave him a script framework. Huang Bingyao wrote the script in only three days.

This script is the original work "Big and Small Bad" written by Yuan Shikong Yongcheng.

At that time, the Xiang brothers made a profit from Golden Harvest and Xinyi City. The box office eventually exceeded 10 million and it was a good start.

Now, the operation methods are similar, and there should be no surprises in the final outcome.

Over there, Zeng Zhiwei received a call from Xiang Qin and was so frightened that he had no choice but to explain the situation to Xinyi City and help with filming.

He also brought Sylvia Chang over because Xiang Zhen asked Sylvia Chang to play the heroine.

……

April 4nd, the premiere of "Kowloon Walled City".

Li Saifeng said: "Brother, are you nervous about going on stage?"

Donnie Yen was actually a little nervous because this was his first movie as a leading role.

It is different from Li Lianjie who plays the leading role and becomes famous immediately.

He waited for three years. During these three years, he practiced modern fighting, Muay Thai, Qing Kung Fu, and worked as a dragon and tiger martial artist on the set.

Today, it is finally going to be officially unveiled, it would be weird if you weren’t nervous!
In order to maintain the reputation of his senior brother, Donnie Yen forced himself to be calm and said: "I'm fine! Aman, are you nervous?"

Li Saifeng smiled playfully: "Don't be nervous! Because after taking the stage, everyone's focus will be on Master and not on us."

Donnie Yen suddenly realized that when Yang Ye was around, Yang Ye was the protagonist. He was nervous and a hammer?

Donnie Yen's mood suddenly relaxed, but even though he was relaxed, he was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart!

……

On the other side, Deborah said to Zhou Xingchi who was about to take the stage: "Xingzi, relax!"

Zhou Xingchi wiped his sweat, nodded and said, "Yes, Lagu!"

Deborah smiled and said, "I heard that your first role with lines was assigned by Yang Shaoqin?"

Zhou Xingchi said: "Yes, that was three years ago when we were filming "Dragon". Mr. Yang went to visit the cast, and on a whim he asked the director to give me a role with lines, playing the role of Yi Dabiao, a disciple of the Beggar Gang." "From now on you Is your fortune going to be good?"

"It doesn't matter. Later I started filming and playing some small roles. Then the station's "Watch Time" wanted to be the host, so I was chosen."

"It only took you three years to be promoted from Qingli Feifan to the emcee of Yang Shao's movie premiere. Your stardom is very prosperous.

If nothing else goes wrong, starting from tomorrow, your status in the station will be improved by another level. In the future, acting will at least be an important supporting role. "

After hearing this, Zhou Xingchi couldn't help but look forward to what would happen when he woke up tomorrow.

"Lagu, Xingzi, come on stage!"

Deborah smiled and said to Zhou Xingchi: "Come on!"

Then she took the microphone and walked onto the stage with a smile on her face, and Zhou Xingchi quickly followed behind her.

The two of them came on stage together, and after introducing themselves, Deborah said: "Let us welcome all the creators of "Kowloon Walled City" to the stage with warm applause!"

Yang Ye took the lead, followed by Zhen Zidan, Li Saifeng, Cheng Kui'an and Wan Ziliang.

Wan Ziliang has been filming for ATV and is one of the pillars of ATV. His status in the TV station is second only to Pan Zhiwen. "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng" starring his partner Michelle, and "Yangxia Zhang Sanfeng" starring his partner Chen Xiuwen both achieved high ratings.

Yang Ye knew that he was good at playing the role of the gangster, so he was appointed to play the role of the gangster in the new film, and Cheng Kui'an was his number one thug.

After Yang Ye led the main creators to greet the audience, Zhou Xingchi suddenly raised his arms and shouted: "Sing! Sing! Sing!"

It has become a common practice for Yang Ye's movies to sing the theme song at the premiere. When Zhou Xingchi shouted, the audience immediately understood and started shouting along.

"Sing! Sing! Sing!"

Yang Ye signaled everyone to be quiet and said to Zhou Xingchi with a smile: "You kid, who asked you to take the lead? What if my movie doesn't have a theme song?"

Zhou Xingchi said: "Young Master Yang, you have a quick mind, you can speak well and write a poem in seven steps. Even if you compose a poem on the spot, there is nothing that can stop you!"

"Good boy, you flatter me pretty well. In that case, let's sing!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The audience applauded wildly!

Yang Ye smiled and said: "The next song will be performed by me and my apprentices Zhen Zidan and Li Saifeng for everyone. Everyone knows that we practice kung fu, so this song is called..."Chinese Kung Fu"!"

The three of them got off the stage and prepared for two minutes. Yang Ye came back with a microphone, but Li Saifeng changed into a red outfit and held a sword in his hand.

As for Donnie Yen, there was a big drum at the scene, and he stood there playing the drum.

This guy's father is a musician and his mother is a martial artist. He has inherited piano and tai chi skills, both of which are very high.

However, the song "Chinese Kung Fu" was not suitable for piano, so he played the drums live.

"Dong dong dong dong!"

As soon as the drum beat, Li Saifeng pulled out the sword in his hand with a loud sound, but saw a ray of cold light, took off the box and shot out.

"Lying like a bow, standing like a pine tree. Sitting motionless without shaking, like a bell, walking like a gust of wind.

South Fist and North Kung Fu, Shaolin Wudang Kung Fu. Tai Chi Ba Gua Lian Zhang, China has magical skills..."

Following Yang Ye's singing, Li Saifeng danced her sword skills around Yang Ye.

It was very slow at first, and I could see each move clearly.

She has practiced dancing since she was a child and started learning swordsmanship. The figure brought out by dancing has naturally integrated into her swordsmanship, which is really beautiful.

"The stick sweeps a large area, the gun picks a line. The body is as light as a swallow in the clouds, and the heroic spirit soars into the sky..."

Yang Ye sang faster and faster, the drumbeats became more intensive, and Li Saifeng's sword skills became faster and faster.

She is petite and agile. When she dances with her sword, she moves like a butterfly through flowers or a dragonfly in the water, dazzling the audience.

The songs were nice, the dances were beautiful, the drums were energetic, and the girls were beautiful. The audience watched with gusto. They applauded and whistled enthusiastically after listening, and the atmosphere was very active.

The premiere of Yang Ye's movie every year is a carnival day for fans, which causes the ticket price of the premiere to be increased to an incredible height.

However, there is no way to ban scalpers these days, so we can only let it go as to ticket speculation.

After the show ended, the two hosts blew a rainbow fart first, and then Deborah asked Yang Ye: "Young Master Yang's movies are usually released in the summer season. Why have they been moved to the resurrection season this time?"

Yang Ye smiled and said: "It will be released as soon as the filming is completed. It will save the audience the wait!"

"This sentence makes me so happy. I wait anxiously for your movie every year!"

"Actually, it's like this. The previous films involved very complicated post-production, and they had to shoot locations everywhere, so the production cycle was relatively long.

This time it was completely shot in Hong Kong. The story is relatively simple, and then it is completely practical. All of our main creators went into action in person, without using wires or special effects, in order to give the audience a real experience. "

Yang Ye's words whetted everyone's appetite.

The lights in the theater dimmed and the main film finally began!
A row of subtitles came out at the beginning! The subtitles these days are all written in white.

"In 1993, Hong Kong! The government built a high wall outside the Kowloon Walled City to isolate it from Hong Kong."

The audience was shocked. In 1993, wasn't that a science fiction film?

This is followed by some close-ups of the interior of Kowloon Walled City.

This place, which has made many Hong Kong citizens change their minds after hearing about it, has at this moment unveiled its mysterious veil and revealed it to the world.

Those who can afford to watch the premiere are people with some money, and they would never go to a place like Kowloon Walled City.

At this time, they all concentrated and watched with relish.

K2, played by Cheng Kui'an, appeared first, rushing into a building with a group of boys in a fierce manner.

In a house, a young man from the city played by Yang Ye was frantically destroying the white noodles he snatched from K2.

This section uses parallel editing and rapid music to exaggerate the tense atmosphere.

After destroying the white noodles, Cheng Kui'an chased after him, and what followed was an exciting chase scene.

Yang Ye ran and jumped in the narrow corridor, as light as a swallow. Suddenly, he passed through the small window above a door.

"Wow!"

"Brilliant!"

"Monkey Sai Lei!"

"This Qinggong is so awesome!"

The audience was stunned and applauded enthusiastically!

This action is so cool!

However, this action is just the appetizer.

Yang Ye hung a rope and flew around the entire building. He climbed up to the roof with his bare hands and jumped from the rooftop to the rooftop of another building.

The camera shoots from above, and you can clearly see Yang Ye flying through the air at an altitude of more than ten meters without using any protective measures!
"Oh my God!"

It was so thrilling and exciting that some viewers were so nervous that their hearts jumped into their throats.

Some timid female viewers were so frightened that they covered their eyes with their hands, and some even screamed.

But then they heard a burst of cheers, because Yang Ye jumped over and it was okay.

He let go of his hand, opened his eyes, and saw Yang Ye's strong figure again.

"So handsome!!!!"
