In Jiahe's leading theater, Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang entered the theater together. The interviews of the reporters never stopped on the way, and the topics were basically focused on the box office battle between Jiahe and Shaw Brothers, and the Dragon Master and "The Dao Ma Dan".
The two of them came to the VIP box, and Zou Wenhuai smiled and said: This time, Jiahe and Shaw Brothers were screened in "The Dragon Master", and the box office will never lose to Kang Jianfei.
He Guanchang said: This time Jiahe cooperated with Shaw, and Shaw suffered a great loss.Both companies have appeared in 4 movies, but our movies obviously have better box office, but Shaw's movies have not increased much. It is estimated that Shaw's tycoon will not cooperate with Jiahe again in the future.
It's good to cooperate once.
Zou Wenhuai said with a smile.
He is in a very good mood these days because Jiahe alone invested and is also the first Hollywood movie "Sky" independently invested by Chinese people, the box office in the United States has reached nearly $70 million and is still being screened.
At the premiere of "The Dragon Master", there were many more celebrities invited than "The Dao Ma Dan", and many old Shaw Brothers stars also came to support them.
Sammo Hung chose a good position with Lin Zhengying, Wu Ma, Huang Bingyao and others to sit down. Sammo Hung smiled and said: Aaron made a lot of noise this time. It seems that it is a foregone conclusion to attend his celebration banquet.
Wu Ma said: Our "The Criminal Officials Crazy Ghost" is not bad either, but the box office battle will probably be very fierce. Both DreamWorks' movies are underestimated.
"The Crew of a Ghost" was planned by Wu Ma, Huang Bingyao and Sammo Hung, but the protagonists are Sammo Hung and Lam Zhengying.
Lin Zhengying is living a very comfortable life now because the rules for the main actors when filming a movie are to share the basic pay and box office share (this is also the main reason why Jackie Chan is surprisingly high in his film pay), and Weihe and Baohe are also so in line with him.
Lin Zhengying received a basic salary of 200,000 yuan for filming "The Criminal Officials" and a 3% Hong Kong box office share, which is far more cost-effective than shooting movies with Kang Jianfei.
Lin Zhengying nodded and said: It's Ah, Mr. Kang's directorial level is very high, and I don't know what kind of movie will be made this time.
……
At the entrance of Princess Jin Cinema, Zhang Ling and Yu Hai took a group of members of the Chinese Martial Arts Exchange Group out of the car. Zhang Ling ordered: Say it again, there are Hong Kong reporters at this door.If the reporter interviews you, don't talk nonsense...
Zhang Ling's worries are obviously redundant. Now there are crowds of people outside the theater, and the reporters are all focused on the celebrity guests. How can they care about them?
As the crowd reached the entrance of the cinema, the members of the martial arts team saw the poster of "The Sword and Ma Dan" on the wall. The three beauties on the poster smiled cleverly, making them blush.
Jet Li handed the movie ticket to the ticket inspector, but the ticket inspector tore off the ticket stub, but handed it back a paper box.
What's this?Some team members took the paper box apart and said in surprise that it was a celebrity calendar.
Jet Li couldn't help but take it apart. It was indeed a desk calendar. Each of the desk calendars was printed with a portrait of a star, and the title page reads the words "Daoma Dan" desk calendar, premiere gifts, etc.
These portraits are basically from the three girls of Rosamund Kwan, Brigitte Lin and Cherie Chung. There are also a few portraits of Dong Wei and Liang Xiaolong, all of which are stills in "The Sword and Horse Dan".
Jet Li liked it after seeing it, and turned around and asked Yu Hai, deputy leader of the exchange team: Teacher Yu, do you need to hand over this?
Zhang Ling answered: No, take this one by yourself.
When he arrived at the premiere hall, a team member next to Jet Li exclaimed: Wow, this cinema is so big, at least one or two thousand people need to sit.
Another person asked: Brother Zhong, do you think that tonight’s martial arts movie?
I definitely need a martial arts movie, it’s not that martial arts are not good-looking.
I heard that Jackie Chan will also have a new movie released tonight.
Is it Jackie Chan who is drunk?
Who else besides him?
……
Jet Li felt itchy when he heard this. He wanted to ask where Jackie Chan's movie was played, and he wanted to watch it now.
Since 1979, pirated song tapes, movie video tapes and novels have begun to flow in mainland China.
Jet Li likes to watch Jackie Chan's "Drunk Fist". He also used to do push-ups alternately with his palms and backs in the film, but his wrist was injured for several days.
Last month, Jet Li asked Zhang Xinyan, the director of "Shaolin Temple", and only then did he realize that the martial arts in the movie were all fake, and Jackie Chan couldn't really do push-ups like that.
Amid the expectations, the lights in the screening hall suddenly went out, and a beam of light hit the stage, followed by the sound of gongs and drums.
Soon, the Peking Opera "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" was released on the stage, but several Peking Opera actors did not draw facials.
The audience who were close to each other suddenly shouted: That Han Xiangzi is Brigitte Lin.
Cherie Chung plays Lan Caihe.
……
If it is just a pure Peking Opera performance, at least 80% of the audience in the screening hall do not like to watch it, but if it is a star performer, the atmosphere will be completely different.
Brigitte Lin’s three girls’ Kung Fu’s Kung Fu is obviously not as good as other Peking Opera performers on stage, but the slightly clumsy movement won the audience’s applause.
After the opening performance, the premiere officially began.
People like Zhang Ling, who come from the mainland, think this premiere is quite interesting.
Most of the time I was chatting on stage, talking about how the three heroines worked hard to learn Peking Opera before filming, how they overcame difficulties during filming, etc.
Most of the audience listened with relish, while a small number of people were quite impatient.
For example, Brother Zhong, who likes martial arts films next to Jet Li, just muttered: It’s been half an hour, why haven’t you played the movie yet?
As if he heard his voice, Kang Jianfei suddenly said on the stage: Okay, I won’t delay everyone watching the movie. "The Dao Ma Dan" will start soon...
Kang Jianfei pulled Guan Zhilin and Brigitte Lin back to the audience, and Chu Hong Chung, Dong Wei and others also followed behind and left the court.
In the darkness, Brigitte Lin said: Ah Fei, I will go to Taipei to film "Chinese Female Soldier" in two days.
Kang Jianfei asked: So fast?
Brigitte Lin said: It’s a military education film, I heard that the Ministry of National Defense is destroying it.
Kang Jianfei said: Then I will take you on the plane.
Lin Guan suddenly said: I'll go and give it to you too.
Kang Jianfei was amused and crying, and Guan Meiren obviously felt something was wrong.
……
(ha)
Looking up, I laughed happily.
Watching the world, just like a play,
This is a trip to the door.
In the next game, you and my companions in the Eight Formation Map,
But it turns out that all the separation, joy and sorrow of men, women, young and old,
Singing high and low, it's all a show
……
The movie officially began. After the opening of DreamWorks, it was the theme song "Another drama" with a strong Peking Opera.
The theme song of the version in the parallel space was sung by Sally Yeh, and this version is now sung by Su Qi.
The film begins with the singer played by Cherie Chung, which then leads to a series of ridiculous plots.
The first time in the screening room was that Chung Chuhong used a piano to smash Dong Wei's head to grab jewelry. The movements and expressions were so funny.
When Brigitte Lin appeared, there was a burst of exclamation in the screening room. Meiren Lin was actually dressed in a man, and her popularity overshadowed the male protagonist in the film.
The pace of Hong Kong society is very fast, which can be seen from the speed of Hong Kong elevators.
Hong Kong films are also so fast-paced. They can get a good box office if they play happily and act funny. Few viewers are willing to slowly appreciate any slow-paced art films.
The three heroines who attract Hong Kong audiences the most.
Rosamund Kwan's acting skills are very poor, but the role she plays is very good at testing her acting skills, which made Kang Jianfei very worried during the filming.
If you change to someone who can act, the shooting time can be reduced by at least one week.
However, in the original version of "The Sword and Ma Dan", Sally Yeh, who plays this role, is also a newcomer, even far inferior to Rosamund Kwan.
Because Sally Yeh grew up in the United States, he could only barely speak Mandarin, and he could not even recognize Chinese characters.
In this case, Sally Yeh was trained by Old Monster Xu to have good acting skills. Why can't Kang Jianfei train Rosamund Kwan well?
The final effect is very obvious. Rosamund Kwan on the big screen is innocent and cute, and her performance effect is not inferior to Sally Yeh's version.
Brigitte Lin's heroic appearance, Cherie Chung's greed for money, Rosamund Kwan's innocence and kindness, the images of three different women appear on the screen, and together with the two male protagonists, Dong Wei and Liang Xiaolong, gradually bring the audience into that era of chaos.
The children of the world, the major affairs of the country, are all integrated into that screen.Amid the audience's sighs and applause, the five protagonists finally rode their horses to go their separate ways.
The movie has been screened, and Jet Li stood up and prepared to leave without any satisfaction. The team member named Zhong next to him said: "The Knife and Ma Dan" is better than "Chasing", but it is even worse than "Drunk Boxing".
I think "The Dao Ma Dan" is better, and those actors acted so well.Another team member retorted.
It’s good to act, but there are too few martial arts scenes.
As you said, if there is no martial arts scene in "Lushan Love", isn't that a big bad movie?
"Love in Lushan" is not good at first.
……
Zhang Ling, the leader of the martial arts exchange group, sighed: I didn’t expect that Hong Kong directors would also make such revolutionary and patriotic movies.
Yu Hai said: It's Ah, I thought it was a martial arts movie before.
Zhang Ling is from the Hong Kong and Macao Office of the State Council, but he is thinking in his mind whether to recommend introducing this "Daoma Dan" to the mainland.
Since the reform and opening up, the mainland has also introduced many foreign films, among which Japanese movies and TV series are the most successful. The movie "Chasing" has caused a national movie viewing craze, and some people even like it so much that they watch movies dozens of times.
Compared with Japanese movies, Hong Kong movies are only works by the Great Wall and Feng Huáng, which can be released in mainland China, but unfortunately, these movies do not like them.
In Kang Jianfei's view, this "Sword and Ma Dan" is very artistic and entertaining. The rare thing is the patriotic revolutionary film, which is very suitable for introduction to the mainland for screening.
The two of them came to the VIP box, and Zou Wenhuai smiled and said: This time, Jiahe and Shaw Brothers were screened in "The Dragon Master", and the box office will never lose to Kang Jianfei.
He Guanchang said: This time Jiahe cooperated with Shaw, and Shaw suffered a great loss.Both companies have appeared in 4 movies, but our movies obviously have better box office, but Shaw's movies have not increased much.
