Coquettish Rebirth

"Brother Cheng Long, our DreamWorks has a plan now... We have heard the story given to you by the New Cinema Company, and we think it is not suitable for you, and we probably don't have too much power to edit it for you. ?So we have such a plan now, that is to tailor a script for you, this script will give full play to your various ideas, we will use Hollywood's first-class computer stunts, plus you and your Cheng Jiaban to do stunts level, to complete a great scene that may be challenged by the ancients and the latecomers, and the computer special effects in 10 years can’t match it... Even DreamWorks and I can invest [-] million U.S. dollars for you to do it. Cost of filming... You can think about the book yourself, come up with a rough idea, and I can cooperate with Spielberg to find all the world's top screenwriters you want to write the script for you, and then we will form the world's top crew. Shooting...how do you think?"

When Jia Hongjian first told Spielberg, it was called a tongue twister, what does it mean to persuade Cheng Long to write a book that can persuade Cheng Long, and then to persuade Cheng Long to continue this book.All of this can be said in one sentence, that is - tell Cheng Long that money is no problem, he can shoot everything he wants!As long as he is interested, that's easy!Can't he just leave the specific matters of the book to him?And now Jia Hongjian is doing just that!

At this time, Cheng Long listened to that really for a long time without saying a word!He was originally on his feet, so it was a surprise to get to know Jia Hongjian outside of him!Now Jia Hongjian, it is said that he has become the richest man in Chinese!It is already richer than Li Ka-shing!Such a person, even if his father put the property in his name, that's amazing, okay?This is enough to prove that the economy and strength of mainland China are thriving!Getting in touch with such a family of the richest man in the motherland will make going to the mainland much smoother, isn't it?Not to mention that Cheng Long, as a Hong Kong star, welcomed his return faithfully, which was also very optimistic by the central leadership.The future is bright!He didn't expect that Jia Hongjian would invest [-] million US dollars in him now, and let him make films according to his own ideas!

In fact, he knows that Hollywood is not his stage!What he is doing now is just obeying his godfather's last wish, and wants to make a name for himself in Hollywood on behalf of the Chinese, and prove that the Chinese are capable!But Hollywood is really not his stage—not to mention the 80s, even now, it is impossible for Hollywood to delegate power to him.Let him make a movie according to his own preferences.Even if his "Red Fan District" was released in the United States, it caused a sensation in Chinatown, and many Chinese people went to watch it, and even many white and black people watched it, but even so, compared with Hollywood hero movies , the box office is still bad!Although the "Rush Hour" he is negotiating now has made him the protagonist, accepted his martial arts design and given him a certain control and cutting ability of fighting scenes, but this is far from enough.It is impossible for people to give him complete autonomy, and it is impossible to give him the opportunity to design most action scenes-according to his practice, he goes to the scene by himself, looking for inspiration while looking at the environment.But in Hollywood, a group of screenwriters think behind closed doors in the office, and then go to the scene to act!How can this thing written behind closed doors be spiritual?

You know, the reason why Cheng Long's films are different from others' is the spirituality!This kind of spirituality made him different from others!In the early years, when I was on the Peking Opera stage, I performed on stage with a few senior brothers when I was a child.They found that the wear show is very eye-catching.So I know that I have to be different from others, and this is the way out!So when other people's martial arts scenes are all kinds of martial arts routines, Cheng Long began to use all available "reasonable" things on the scene.For example, various benches, such as various ladders, such as various refrigerators and electrical appliances!This kind of thing is not available in other people's fights, only Cheng Long can think of it and use it!

For example, in "Who Am I", he personally led the team to the Netherlands.On the top floor of an office building with more than 20 floors, wandering back and forth, I saw the bottom-up air outlet of the air conditioner, and thought that I could use this to fight—so there was a villain in a suit pretending to be "forceful" to follow Cheng Long fought, and two people stood on the air outlet, the man's tie was blown up by the wind from the air outlet, then Cheng Long grabbed the other's tie and beat each other violently!In the end, another thug who was pretending to be on the sidelines saw this, and immediately took off his tie consciously!This is what came to mind when I saw the scene temporarily.This is spirituality!This is different from what others think in the office!

Also in "Who Am I", there were no cement bags on the roof of the building.As a result, when Cheng Long was designing the fight, he felt that if he added a cement bag, if the bag broke, everyone would be covered in cement, which would make the fighting feel very good, so he temporarily added a cement bag decorated with corn flour!This is spirituality!Can this kind of thing be imagined behind closed doors in the office?

On the other hand, when he, Cheng Long, was controlling his films, he had always consciously wanted to be different from others.For example, in the traditional martial arts scenes in the 78s, you can often see the protagonist fighting the villain. Obviously the villain came with a group of people, but the group of people just dangled in front of the camera just like the background Go, watch the protagonist beat the villain violently, just don't go up and hug the protagonist!There is no rationality here!Where is the real gang fight like this!When one beat ten people, he was surrounded by ten people, and the ten people came up and were beaten one by one?The main character will definitely be kicked down and unable to get up, okay?When there are more than one fight, it is necessary to use the pace to open the distance, let the other party block people, ensure that there are only one or two people in front of you alone, and then defeat them one by one. This is the normal thinking of one-to-many, okay?

It is to be different from this traditional fighting scene that Cheng Long came up with an innovative way - that is to say, when one-to-ten, in Cheng Long's movie, there is absolutely no way to see the other nine people walking in the same way as the background. go!His approach is always like this - first come up and let ten people punch and kick, so that everyone can make an appearance!Then, using the position of the camera, with one punch and one leg, the audience only saw one person fighting Cheng Long! [

For example, if ten people surround Cheng Long, each of them may kick Cheng Long down with a punch and a leg. Then at this time, the camera turns and turns into a low side shot, and Cheng Long blocks it at this time. One person is one body, and then a lazy donkey rolls and kicks the opponent down - at this time, only one-on-one fighting can be seen in the camera. In fact, it is the same as the essence of traditional movies, only one fights at a time!But the audience can't see the other 9 people walking around like the background, they can only see one-on-one!At this time, in order to highlight the oppressive feeling of the beating, after Cheng Long kicked him, maybe in the process of getting up, he flew up from outside the camera and kicked Cheng Long again!At this moment, when the camera changed again, Cheng Long blocked a punch on the left, then immediately received another punch on the right, then was kicked in the left leg, and then kicked behind the back!Then when he was surrounded and beaten like this, he knocked down one and was beaten several times, and knocked down another and was beaten several times.In the end, he succeeded in one-on-ten, which gave people the feeling that he was absolutely full of enthusiasm!And that sense of tension, that sense of reality, is not comparable to the "chaotic" kinetic energy of the background!

Then, in fact, his fighting process in the real process is not fast and not good-looking, but the quick editing through the camera can create a kind of pressure that makes people feel breathless!This kind of thing, that is what Cheng Long can bring when he is a director!And these things, he couldn't master them in Hollywood, and he couldn't bring them!Is he happy with this matter?Of course I'm upset!However, he was also thinking that he might not be able to play in two years, and he was about to transform, so maybe this kind of filming is also a way out.

At this time, Cheng Long really had some thoughts about Jia Hongjian's proposal!To be honest, he knew that he was already in his 40s, and he might not be able to move in two years!So now he is thinking about finding a way out for the future, but at the same time, a rich man came over and said, I will give him money so that he can give full play to his abilities and make the best movie in his life... Who can do that? No idea!When I still have the ability, to shoot a masterpiece... This is simply a dream!You must know that even if it is "Who Am I", the total investment of this film is only 1000 million US dollars, which is more than 7000 million Hong Kong dollars in total!But the worldwide box office has more than 2300 million US dollars!In the mainland, it has created a box office of almost 8000 million yuan!On the heels of Titanic and Saving Private Ryan!This "Titanic" still created a box office of 98 million in 3, and "Saving Private Ryan" made by Jia Hongjian and Spielberg even reached a box office of 2 million!One step away from the Titanic!

If Cheng Long got 1 million U.S. dollars in funding, even if 1000 million U.S. dollars were given to Hollywood to produce top-level special effects, then he would still have 9000 million U.S. dollars to shoot. Wouldn’t it mean that there would be 9 "My Who's the scale?That is simply a dream!

But even if Cheng Long is tempted now, he still has to think about it!After all, this decision was too big, and he didn't know what Jia Hongjian wanted here! "Mr. Jia...then what if I have invested [-] million yuan in this movie and can't earn back the investment?" he asked. "It's very simple, then you owe me money, and then you have to pay me back for the rest of your life..." Jia Hongjian joked heartlessly at this moment, "Hahaha, I'm just kidding! As you know, I am the richest man in Chinese. To tell you the truth, I like your movie very much. It’s the best if you can earn back the cost of [-] million dollars. If you can’t make it back, I spent the money to make a movie for myself and buy a toy, so that you Are you satisfied?"

"...Toys?" Cheng Long had to sigh with emotion at the rich man's generosity, but he still said, "Boss Jia, let me think about this matter..."
