Tsui Hark was a little surprised when he heard this because Kang Jianfei asked him to be his deputy. Obviously, this was not a simple film, just like Kang Jianfei asked Cameron to film "Jurassic Park" together.

This kind of blockbuster, from preparation for filming to on-site scheduling, to post-production of the film, has an amazing workload.

Kang Jianfei is a busy man, so he naturally doesn’t have so much energy to deal with it himself. He is not at ease to find an ordinary director to help him, so he finds a top director as his deputy.

Let’s talk about it, what kind of story is it?Tsui Hark asked curiously.

Although Jackie Chan next to him did not move, he also raised his ears to prepare to eavesdrop.He was not trying to steal information from the new film, but pure curiosity.

Kang Jianfei smiled and said: This story takes place in the future world. In 2020, in a bioengineering laboratory in a building in Kolkata, India, hundreds of meters of genetics and bioengineering scientists from all over the world are conducting a scientific research. A virus suddenly broke out and spread rapidly. The supercomputer controlling the laboratory lost control and closed the building. The virus quickly killed all the staff...

The story told by Kang Jianfei is the adaptation of "Resident Evil".

He once imagined that "Resident Evil" was put in Hong Kong for filming, but Hong Kong was too small to support the grand story background.

Mainland China is quite large, but many plots of the movie are prone to government dissatisfaction, and the facts are not consistent with the facts.

Continue to put the story in the United States, this movie is a Hollywood blockbuster, and the cost of shooting in the United States is too high.

India just happens. There are many Western biological companies doing experiments in this country, treating poor Indian patients as new drugs and experimenting with live animals, which is consistent with the background of the umbrella company.

Moreover, India is close to Hong Kong, and the shooting cost can be controlled to the most reasonable.

From the box office perspective, India is more intimate and mysterious in the eyes of European and American audiences, and is easier for them to accept than pure Hong Kong films.

At the same time, as a British colony, Hong Kong is also very familiar with the Indian San, and local audiences are not opposed to films filmed in India.

As for why the video was filmed in Kolkata, the reason is very simple. At this time, only Kolkata city has a subway...

After listening to the general plot, Tsui Hark asked curiously: What do zombies look like?

Kang Jianfei said: He is stiff in his actions and has no intelligence. He wants to bite a living person when he sees a living person. If a normal person is bitten, he will become infected and become a zombie.

Isn't that a zombie?Tsui Hark said.

Kang Jianfei shook his head and said: Unlike zombies, the formation of zombies is a virus infection. Its brain is destroyed, and only a certain area of ​​the cerebellum is still energetic, so you can control the body to do some simple movements.Zombies cannot fly, and Western audiences are more accustomed to this.

Tsui Hark asked: What about the actor’s arrangement?

Kang Jianfei said: First of all, the heroine must be a Hong Kong star, because this is a Hong Kong science fiction film.Secondly, it is best for the male protagonist to use Hollywood superstars, and they are Hollywood stars familiar to Asian audiences. They are both convenient to open up the European and American markets, and can be accepted by Asian audiences.As for supporting roles, it is best for the second female lead to be an Indian actor, and the rest will be discussed when filming.

Tsui Hark is a lunatic who likes to try new types, but unfortunately, due to his limited funds, he cannot squander like Kang Jianfei.

Now that he heard Kang Jianfei’s idea, Tsui Hark was certainly willing to take over. The only regret was that he could not act independently, because Kang Jianfei would definitely control the crew.

Jackie Chan was still quite shocked when he heard the two discussing the new film.

Because this is a new type of science fiction film that has never appeared before, if it can be really shot, Kang Jianfei is creating the history of the movie again.

With the sluggishness of Hong Kong films, all Hong Kong filmmakers are now in a state of anxiety.

With successive box office losses, Sammo Hung even decided to temporarily retreat behind the scenes and no longer serve as director and starring.

Jackie Chan and Jiahe are also in a hurry. The Chinese-speaking market is shrinking and the European and American markets cannot make it. They are racking their brains to find ways to break through the predicament.

Next year, Jackie Chan will go to Japan to shoot a racing film "Thunderbolt Fire". In fact, Jiahe values ​​Jackie Chan's popularity in Japan, strives to cater to Japanese audiences, and finds a different way to make money in the Japanese market.

Hearing the conversation between Kang Jianfei and Tsui Hark, Jackie Chan even wondered if he should try a new type?

This idea was quickly rejected by him. Jackie Chan knew his strengths and weaknesses, and he could only fight to the death in action comedy movies in his life.

At this moment, the guests on the stage suddenly announced: The best action guide for winning the 31st Taiwanese Golden Horse Awards is - Cheng Jiaban and Liu Jialiang's "Drunk Boxing 2"!

Slap sex...

The awards ceremony hall was filled with applause, Jackie Chan, Liu Jialiang and members of the Cheng family stood up and shook hands and hugged the people around him to celebrate.

Congratulations!

Kang Jianfei smiled and shook hands with Jackie Chan.

His "Kung Fu" was also nominated for Best Action Guide. Although he lost to "Drunk Fist 2", Kang Jianfei and Jackie Chan did not take this small prize to heart.

The awards were awarded next were Best Recording. John Woo's "Face Change" won the first trophy today, and finally won the Best Editing, Best Original Script and Best Actor.

By the way, the best actor in this Golden Horse Awards is another double yolk egg. Chow Yun-fat and Nicholas Cage both stepped onto the podium to win the trophy with their wonderful performances in "Face Change".

"Kung Fu" directed by Kang Jianfei is a bit tragic, but it is not enough to get any results and get a duck egg home.

Kang Jian flew to Taipei this time and only got the best original script, and he got it with "Face Change".

Stephen Chow was speechless about this and sat down from beginning to end and clapped his face.

This year's Golden Horse Awards is Cheng Chong, who used to be a mainland actor, but she immigrated to the United States a few years ago, and in a few years she will be banned by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.

Taiwanese director Tsai Mingliang is the biggest winner. His "Long Live Love" not only won the Best Picture, but also won the Best Director Award.

The only thing that Kang Jianfei is happy about is that he was awarded the best cartoon that was missing in another time and space by the "Sky Legend" of the Black Horse Animation Company.

This cartoon Kang Jianfei did not intervene, and is a pure original work of Dark Horse Anime.

Although "The Legend of Sky" was so disappointing when it was released in Hong Kong that it could have a box office of 1.6 million, it won several small trophies internationally.

Under Kang Jianfei's instructions, Dark Horse Anime has been studying digital 3D animation technology since last year, and "Kung Fu Panda" has also been preparing for the project.

But the speed is very slow. Perhaps "Kung Fu Panda" will be released after 2000, and six or seven years is enough.
