Movie tycoon

Chapter 415 The premiere is hot (three more)
And Chen Xiaotang's understanding of Zhang Che can be traced back to the movie "Great Shanghai 1937" that was screened at his school when he was in school.Among them, Chen Xiaotang remembers most clearly the male protagonist "Knife" Yang Fan, showing his chest muscles, full of masculinity, with a dagger stuck in his abdomen, and the tragic scene of fighting with Japanese officer Sasaki in the bloody rush.That is really a "cool" word!Men, they should be so crazy and bloody.

The film should be regarded as a violent and bloody film, but because the content is mainly Japanese, it was confusedly included in the category of "patriotic film" by the school at that time, allowing the majority of students to watch the film collectively, otherwise Chen Xiaotang would not have This is a great opportunity to see such a wonderful kung fu movie.

Since then, Chen Xiaotang has become obsessed with this kind of "hard bridge and hard horse" Hong Kong Kung Fu movies.Not long after, I watched another movie with a similar theme: "The Dragon Crossing the River"!
Fortunately, there is even the actor of "Small Knife" Yang Fan appearing in it.It was still a great skill, but the result was even more heroic, the whole body was stabbed in a mess, blood was flowing, and the eyes were still wide open, vowing not to bow their heads!It was a pity that Xiaodao Yang Fan didn't come out with any more kung fu movies, and he didn't appear again until a TV series "The Thorn Horse" starring David Jiang, playing "Duan Yulou", and the ending was still "death"!Later, this gentleman disappeared, and made a "stunning" appearance in Zhou Xingchi's movie "Kung Fu". Poor old man, made Chen Xiaotang very sad!
But at that time, Chen Xiaotang only cared about the actors in it.I didn't even think about who shot the movie.Then gradually grew up.Only then did Chen Xiaotang know that the directors of these two films are both named "Zhang Che"!
It is precisely because of Chen Xiaotang's obsession and admiration for Zhang Che, that when filming the last scene, Chen Xiaotang did not hesitate to integrate Zhang Che's masculinity into the fighting in "Young and Dangerous", forming this kind of wind and rain, The blood donation frenzy, the amazing scene of hundreds of people fighting shirtless.

It has to be said that such a scene shocked all the audience in the cinema.

I saw that some audience members had stiff expressions, obviously getting too deep into the drama.Some audience members grabbed the armrests of the chairs with their hands, obviously feeling too excited.Some viewers even trembled all over, obviously unable to bear such excessive stimulation.

In short, there are all kinds of people, and everyone was shocked by the last scene of the fight scene, and the three souls lost their souls...

However, the shock was short-lived. When a small policeman accidentally shot and killed the villainous but skilled villain Liang Kun on the big screen, the whole movie theater suddenly became a sea of ​​joy.

"Okay! The villain, Liang Kun, is dead!"

"Victory, Chen Haonan and the others have won!"

"Great, finally won!!"

……

People get carried away and forget that this is just a play, there is no need to be so happy.

But then again, why do people watch movies?Isn't it just longing for this passion, this joy?
In addition, I have to mention one point, if this drama was only filmed according to the routine of the previous life, then it would definitely not cause such a big response.Chen Xiaotang's script and idea started from the perspectives of "martial arts" and "kungfu", which are popular among Hong Kong audiences, and then combined the essence of the previous "Young and Dangerous": hot blood!Loyalty!friendship!Pool them together, toss and fry them, and create this rich meal that will delight 80s audiences.

So this play is not the version from the previous life, but an improved version after Chen Xiaotang's careful consideration, with great originality.

At this moment, after the whole film was played, the audience applauded spontaneously because the film brought them excitement and joy, and they had a pleasant night.All this is enough for them to applaud the people behind the scenes of the film.

The applause spread throughout the hall through the thick walls and gates like mountains and seas, making fat Wang Jing's ears swell.

"We succeeded! We succeeded!" Liu Dehua, Zhou Huimin and other crew members stood up and cheered happily.The excited Zhou Huimin wept with joy, and tears of joy flowed from her face. You know, this is the first movie she starred in, and she was treated so courteously by the audience, and she felt a little foggy for a while.

A beam of light was projected from above the cinema to under the reception desk, and the audience where the light reached stood up collectively, with smiles on their faces and clapping their hands vigorously.The sound of whistles and applause came and went, and lasted for a long time.

Fatty Wang Jing and other main creative personnel stood on the stage, Liu Dehua, Zhou Huimin, Wu Zhenyu, Ren Dahua, Lin Baoyi, Ouyang Zhenhua, Tao Dayu... Some of them were full of smiles, and some were already in tears.At this moment, they only prepared to speak when the audience calmed down a little.

After a few minutes, the applause slowly stopped.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Tonight, I can say for sure, that I saw a brand new kung fu movie, an incomparably wonderful gangster flick! I think it won't be long before all the other cinemas in Hong Kong Audiences who have seen this movie here will also sigh like me! Ladies and gentlemen, welcome tonight's hero, our director Wang Jing!"

The host blushed with excitement, and handed the microphone to Wang Jing.

The applause sounded again, wave after wave.

Fatty Wang Jing stood very modestly on the surface, but he was already coquettish in his heart.

I chose to interview me, you really have vision!
Fatty Lanhua raised his fingers, held the microphone lightly, and looked at the cheering crowd like a Buddha holding a flower.

It has to be said that this is the first time he feels his success as a director.This gave him more confidence and courage to create his own movies.

I am, after all, still very talented!

"A movie that can be recognized by the public, I think, we have succeeded. And our success comes from your support. We paid a lot for "Young and Dangerous", and I was very nervous before, because I didn't know Will you like this movie? However, at this moment, I can finally proudly say: We succeeded! On behalf of all the creators of "Young and Dangerous", I would like to thank everyone for their support, thank you!"

The fat man began to show his true feelings, and the hand holding the microphone trembled slightly, and finally bowed respectfully to the audience.This is really rare for him who has always been coquettish~unlimited coquettish and cynical.

The reason why the fat man was so excited was not entirely because of the public's approval of the film he shot.

Although it is not the first time to participate in the so-called movie premiere, Fatty, who has been in the industry for a long time, naturally knows something about it.

There is an unwritten rule in the Hong Kong film industry in this era, that is, under normal circumstances, each film must be screened for three days before its release.

This is the rule that all film creators love and fear the most.Do you want to know why?At the test screening, the main staff of each film must be present to learn about word-of-mouth, usually the director, leading actor, and producer.

This test screening venue is the most unruly. If it is not good-looking, the audience will point their noses and scold them bloody; word of mouth spread.

Therefore, in this era, even dull literary films, as long as they have a good reputation in the test screenings, they can also make some box office.

This is what future Hong Kong films will fall far short of. Directors and actors are very afraid of this; because in the test screening, if the audience is not satisfied, it is still trivial to curse a few words, and they may even beat people. No responsibility is required.

Therefore, every director and every actor always try their best to do everything well, so as to please the audience and escape the catastrophe of the test screening.

Therefore, under the circumstances that everyone is trying to please the audience, Hong Kong movies have gradually evolved into easy-to-understand, highly entertaining Hong Kong movies.In terms of entertainment~, even the Hollywood movies of that era are far behind.

Although this is only the first premiere of the trial screening, judging from the audience's reaction, "Young and Dangerous" has basically achieved success, at least it will not become cannon fodder in the battle between Golden Harvest and New Art City.

But this unwritten rule has its pros and cons.

The advantage is that it can urge filmmakers to work harder.This is a hundred times stronger than those actors and directors in the 21st century who only get paid but don't make good films.The disadvantage is that the audience often dominates the creator's thinking. Once a certain film is a big success, it will be frantically followed by others.For example, zombie films in Hong Kong are popular these days, so good, "Mr. Zombie", "Doctor Zombie", and "Master Zombie" all of a sudden popped up. A Date with a Zombie"... If gambling movies sell money, then good, "God of Gamblers" will bloom everywhere in the future, such as "Gambler", "Gambler", "Gambler", "gambling" will make you messy, and you will feel nauseous watching it !

And these rampant follow-ups have fundamentally led to the weakness and decline of Hong Kong movies in the future.Because everyone doesn't need to bury their heads in creating new ideas, as long as other people's plays sell money, it's OK for us to copy his ideas.There is no need to use "brainstorming" at all, and you can get a lot of money, which is so cool.

After interviewing Fatty Wang Jing, the reporters pointed their finger at Zhou Huimin, the heroine of the play.

"May I ask how it feels to be the heroine for the first time?" a reporter asked.

"How do you feel? That is, this is a very moving movie. At first I thought this movie was similar to those Jianghu movies before, but after I read the script, I realized that this movie is not simple!"

"What is the most memorable scene for you?"

"Well, it's Xiao Jieba who was kidnapped by Chen Haonan and went to the top of Victoria Peak to eat barbecued pork buns!"

"Oh, why this scene?"

"Because I really paid a lot for filming this scene. The char siew buns alone ate three baskets!"

When Zhou Huimin said this, everyone laughed. It is conceivable that a beautiful woman is holding a basket of buns and eating happily.

"Other than that, who do you think is the happiest to cooperate with?" The reporter chased after him. "

"Yeah. Everyone is cooperating faster! How should I put it, this is like a big family. I grew up in this big family, like Ah Tang and Hua Tsai. They all taught me a lot!"

"Speaking of Chen Xiaotang and Liu Dehua, which one of them do you think has better acting skills?" A reporter asked as a trap.

"Hehe, aren't you embarrassing me? They are all very nice, Hua Zai is very handsome, Tang Zai is very talented!"

"If the weak country asked you to choose a boyfriend, what type would it be? Like Chen Haonan in the movie?"

"Well, no. Although Chen Haonan is very good, it won't give me a sense of security."

"Then would you date a boyfriend in the circle?"

"This...everything depends on fate! But it is unlikely in the circle, after all, if the two of them are busy filming and get together less often, their relationship will be unstable!"

Zhou Huimin talked eloquently in front of these gossip reporters, without any hint of youthfulness.Such a performance can not help but surprise people.But they seem to have forgotten that this beautiful actress was born as a radio DJ, and she has done many exclusive interviews with celebrities. These tricks are too trivial for her.

"Miss Zhou Huimin, we want to ask you the last question now. Who do you most want to bring the joy of success to and share with him?"

All the media reporters looked at Zhou Huimin, waiting for her reply.

Zhou Huimin glanced at everyone with her beautiful eyes, and then said: "Of course it's my parents. I hope I can share this greatest joy with them at this moment!"

Not bad, she really is a filial daughter.

Everyone thinks so.

But at this moment, a figure appeared in Zhou Huimin's heart. Perhaps for her, the person she most wanted to share her joy with was him.

In silence, Zhou Huimin couldn't help comparing Chen Xiaotang in her heart with that Ni Zhen:

Does it look like?Ni Zhen is also very handsome, but at first glance he looks like a pretty boy, and Chen Xiaotang, not to mention, can fascinate many women just because of his looks, especially his face is sharp and angular, but he is more masculine than Ni Zhen...

family background?Chen Xiaotang is just a young man from a tea restaurant, and I heard that he has been in the Tao, but he is very light and hardworking. He joined the entertainment circle for only three years and has become a top star. I heard that he can write novels, Writing scripts, and even writing songs, is simply one of the best talents in the entertainment industry.As for Ni Zhen, he was born in a scholarly family and his father is well-known. He himself graduated from university and won numerous awards. He is also quite talented and can write some bourgeois articles.It seems that he is very good at romantic matters, and he is very good at chasing girls romantically...

After some comparison, Zhou Huimin was surprised to find that Chen Xiaotang was much better than Ni Zhen in every aspect, except that Chen Xiaotang was weaker than Young Master Ni in terms of family background.Zhou Huimin couldn't help her cheeks burning hot, and muttered secretly: "Hmph—how can this guy have so many advantages?"

However, the desire to see him became stronger and stronger.
