Coquettish Rebirth

Here, Jia Hongjian watched Cheng Long's editing bit by bit. During the editing process, Cheng Long moved his hammer to the left, and then told Jia Hongjian his experience bit by bit. ▲∴, although such a teaching method may not be systematic, and may not teach Jia Hongjian everything Cheng Long knows, but Jia Hongjian does not care about this, he is very hungry for knowledge, as long as He is already very happy if he can learn new knowledge that interests him.Besides, with the relationship between Jia Hongjian and Cheng Long, I'm afraid that we won't have the opportunity to get all of Cheng Long's remaining experience from now on?In the past two years or so, Cheng Long felt that he could not move anymore, felt that he was old, and wanted to find a successor very much.But at such a time, he basically couldn't find a satisfactory successor, and he didn't dare to work as hard as he could. In fact, it is not the most important thing for him to make movies. There are too many stars in Hong Kong movies. Who can be popular all over the world like him?And it is not because he is funny and cooperates with fighting that he can reach today's position. His senior brother Sammo Hung also has a similar style, but has Sammo Hung become popular in Hollywood?

The key to Cheng Long's success in Hollywood is that he has a big scene and dares to work hard!He can do scary stunts for a scene by himself!This level of desperation is completely impossible for others in Hong Kong, and the effect he obtained with his desperation is very similar to the trend of Hollywood's big scene as a whole, but Hollywood is not dangerous. Technology does it.Everyone's aura is so harmonious, which gave Cheng Long a chance to become a first-line star!And in such a year, not to mention the rich Hong Kong, even if it is a mainland with more poor people, no matter how poor the poor are short of money, they will not go crazy and fight desperately like Cheng Long!Cheng Long's spelling scares away so many poor people who came to apply for the job back then!

At that time, many people felt that they had nowhere to go.Come here to apply for the position of Cheng's class.Then Cheng Long took them to work the next day and asked them to jump out from the roof of the three-story villa and jump into a swimming pool two or three meters away from the ground level, which made many people jump. After seeing it once, then you will turn pale with fright and just not come the next day, okay?After all, no matter how desperate you are, you have to live to make money!Among the young actors Cheng Long has met over the years.He has only met one person who is really willing to work as hard as him - a young man named Nicholas Tse.This young man is really a fight!When Cheng Long returned to Hong Kong to film "New Police Story" two years ago, Nicholas Tse and Cheng Long went directly to a tall building to shoot the scene where they were hung on a rope, and then this guy At that time, I was really strangled to the neck by the rope!It's useless to stand in at all!This guy's net worth is not low, and he is also a very handsome star, but he dares to work so hard in filming, this kind of person is hard to find!

But the problem is that this Nicholas Tse has never learned any martial arts, so although the spirit of drive and desperate spirit is in place, he still cannot become Cheng Long's successor after all.After all, all of Cheng Long's experience is in action films rather than literary films, and Cheng Long is not very good at making pure literary films. Of course, he is looking for a successor to pass on all his knowledge, but There is no such person!Nicholas Tse has no background but is willing to work hard is very rare. Other rookies who can fight have no acting skills, and those who can fight and have acting skills may not be suitable in appearance-for example, a baby-faced Wu Jing, It won't be popular!Then it seems that they can fight, have acting skills, and have image.They are not young anymore, and none of them dare to work hard like Cheng Long!In this way, what successor would he find?It's such a time.This Cheng Long really has a feeling that his body is full of knowledge and experience, and his kung fu can't be passed down!

And at such a time, a Jia Hongjian appeared. Relatively speaking, although Jia Hongjian couldn't fight or act, and he didn't even look like the protagonist, let alone dare to work hard, Jia Hongjian had one advantage. .That is, he likes movies, and at the same time, he can invest in making movies at any time, so at least Jia Hongjian can reproduce his Cheng Long style movies by spending money, can't he?Moreover, Jia Hongjian has a lot of money, and he is the owner of a movie company.It is entirely possible to invest by yourself and use Hollywood special effects to make his Cheng Long-style movie. Although it is not 100% succession, at least most of it is succession, isn't it?As far as Cheng Long himself is concerned, although the actors in the world think that he is just a star who knows kung fu and only knows how to fight, only people in the industry know how good he is!

It can be said that he is a rare all-round movie wizard in modern Chinese movies. Director, screenwriter, performance, editing, photography, action design, music, which job types and positions are he not familiar with?Maybe he is not as talented as Tsui Hark and Tsui, and he is not as literary and personal as the various cult films in Hong Kong and Hong Kong in the 90s. Maybe his acting skills are not as good as those old dramas in Hong Kong, but he is inferior in any aspect There are not many, it can be said that it has reached an excellent level!Such a generalist is quite rare!Others thought that he only knows how to fight, and when he became a director, others thought that he was just a random shooter just to grab the rights in his own hands, and he created a fashion martial arts scene.

Others think that he has a good sense of shooting, he has his own ideas in editing and camera control, and even though he is a little weak in screenwriting, he can't come up with Hollywood-level scripts, but compared with other Hong Kong films, he He is already a person with great ideas and great productions!How many people have all these points in the entire Chinese film industry?Just him!It can be said that he cooperates with Cheng's class alone, and with some casually matched photography costumes and props, he can make a movie with a very good box office!In addition to his own ability to play, the design of the plot, the sense of the market and even acting skills, which one does not require a solid foundation?

As a star, you need to have acting skills. Familiarity with the routines of the film market is basic. Kung Fu stars also need to have good martial arts skills to match their acting skills. Martial arts superstars, in addition to the above-mentioned outstanding performance, must also have keen market sense, keep up with the times.A real kung fu superstar needs a lot of training. Those who can fight but can’t act, no; those who can act but can’t do martial arts, no; Connotation, no... Even as he gets older, Cheng Long thinks more and more about the connotation of the film. "Drunken Master" was filmed when he was young in his 20s. It seemed that he was awesome after drinking. Cheng Long felt that this was not good when he was in his 30s. He should not teach young people to drink alcohol. That's why he was in the late 80s. Filmed the famous "Drunken Master 2", in such a film he showed the consequences of drinking by accident and even drinking industrial alcohol, this is to tell young people not to blindly imitate movie characters!This Cheng Long has long realized the social responsibility of the film!

Although it sounds like social responsibility is quite vain, it seems to require people to be tall.But this is the market sense!Young and Dangerous is awesome, but how many young people have they led?Is Cheng Long and the main creator of Young and Dangerous Boys on the same level?What is his status, Cheng Long?What image will he establish in the future, and how will he manage his image?It's all something to consider!So although Cheng Long has never read a book and looks careless like a big old man all day long, in fact he has a delicate mind. In fact, he has a lot of things in his mind!This is also the reason why in the 21st century, all the star players who have made a living in Hong Kong are not as good as Cheng Long in foreign countries!

In such a situation, besides Jia Hongjian, who else is capable of taking over 70% or even 80% of Chenglong's class?This Jia Hongjian has shown a certain talent in script shooting, and even gave Cheng Long a very big surprise in terms of script, plot structure and martial arts style.Maybe Jia Hongjian can't fight by himself, but the times have changed. Jia Hongjian can use the Hollywood method to do it with virtual reality technology. Cheng Long actually wanted to do the same. Back then, he had no money and no choice but to work hard. He is neither stupid nor crazy, how could he want to risk his life all day long?Therefore, if Jia Hongjian takes over, he can find other capable stars to come and film the film. When the time comes, Jia Hongjian will be responsible for the script and filming. Then the filmed film can also be said to be Cheng Long's style?Of course, it will definitely be a little different when the time comes. Those who learn from others live, like him to die!From this point of view, Cheng Long vaguely felt that Jia Hongjian had the potential to be a successor!

Otherwise, how could Cheng Long agree to tell Jia Hongjian all his experiences so easily?He would like to say that this actually meant that Jia Hongjian was regarded as an apprentice with a certain amount of imparting experience!If he is just a good person, why didn't he teach these skills to everyone in Hong Kong?Why didn't he teach American directors when he was filming in the United States?He also judges people!If someone doesn't treat him, he will hide his secrets!Although on the surface he seems to be a rough person, in fact it is just a mask to a certain extent, a mask that makes people careless. In fact, he thinks too many things in private. Not such a careless person who doesn't think about anything!If helping Jia Hongjian was just to repay favors, then it was already a great deal of face for him to come here to help design movements and help control the camera position.If Jia Hongjian's position had been someone else, Cheng Long wouldn't have offered to come and help with the editing!He doesn't take money, why do so many things?Although it seems that his name will be mentioned, plus he is a perfectionist, so we must do well.But the problem is that this is not his movie in the first place. He doesn't have to be perfect in the American movies he participated in. No matter how perfect he is, he only wants his own movie to be perfect!So he was able to come here because he wanted to train Jia Hongjian! (To be continued..)
