Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 535
""Longmen Inn" created a mode of martial arts film, character, narrative, scene, rhythm, so that the audience who indulged in Shaw's fake flowers and grass studio at that time saw another possibility. From then on, the film had to strengthen the sense of history, pay attention to the nature of the landscape, design the rhythm of fighting, and penetrate the spirit of the times as its foothold of the times, and gradually became a poetic film product. These are all brought by Mr. Hu to martial arts films. Change, Mr. Hu is a veritable master of martial arts."
In the small viewing room, Xu Ke held the detailed script and cast in his hand, but looked at the Longmen Inn directed by Hu Jinquan on the screen. The poetic pictures inside were extremely agitated.
"In fact, in martial arts, Director Hu used the techniques of Peking opera to innovate martial arts scenes. Several characters appeared on the stage. With the cooperation of music, it was as impressive as the appearance of Peking opera. During the fight, the footwork under the cooperation of music advanced. The fight against each other has become the target of countless martial arts films to imitate. The film’s innovative fighting style also enabled the martial arts films in Hong Kong, Taiwan and even the mainland to finally get out of the shadow of Japanese samurai films, and establish a unique charm of their own. The fighting style has developed to the present, and it has finally become a unique genre of great achievements in Hong Kong and Taiwan movies. "Qiao Feng nodded in agreement.
In fact, not only the previous directors were affected, but the martial arts films in the following decades were still deeply influenced by the style of martial arts films directed by Hu Jinquan.
Even Xu Ke, the future master of martial arts movies, is still deeply affected. Even Xu Ke is the director who has inherited the style of Hu Jinquan's martial arts most perfectly, whether it is the original time-space New Longmen Inn or Swordsman. Or Huang Feihong, Green Snake, etc. These martial arts movies can be said to be re-creations on the basis of the martial arts films laid by Hu Jinquan. These starting points all began with "Longmen Inn" as a successful model for Hong Kong and Taiwan martial arts films.
"Do you have the confidence to shoot well, and super far away from this classic directed by Hu Jinquan?" Qiao Feng clicked on the movie that is still on the screen and asked with a smile.
"Mr. Qiao gathered Li Lianjie, Qingxia, and Zhang Manyu together, as well as an old partner Cheng Xiaodong who is a martial arts instructor, and the script is written so well by Mr. Qiao. If I had no confidence anymore, I would be too sorry for Mr. Qiao. Is valued."
Although Xu Ke said that Li Lianjie, Lin Qingxia and others are the guarantee of success, in fact, in his heart, the greatest confidence comes from himself.
Qiao Feng knows Xu Ke very well, so he shook his head with a smile after hearing the words: "You are not honest. You obviously have confidence in yourself, but you just use the person to tell you."
Xu Ke laughed and changed the subject and said: "Since Li Lianjie was chosen for the leading actor, then the ultimate villain, Cao Shaoqing, we must also choose a talent that can match Li Lianjie in kung fu, otherwise I am afraid that the final fight will be difficult. "
Qiao Feng deeply agrees with Xu Ke's question, because it exists in the original time and space.
The original time and space of the New Dragon Inn was played by Liang Jiahui, played by the protagonist Zhou Huaian, while the big villain Cao Shaoqing has practiced martial arts since childhood and has excellent kung fu, Zhen Zidan.
Liang Jiahui hasn't watched many martial arts movies, but he doesn't know any kung fu, so after the movie was released, many people complained about Zhou Huai'an martial arts too water, not as good as Lin Qingxia and Zhang Manyu's Qiu Moyan It's good with Jinyingyu, and it looks good.
The most exciting thing about the fights in martial arts or kung fu movies is that the two parties are equally matched.
Take Li Lianjie as an example. His most classic fighting scenes include Fang Shiyu’s fights with Zhao Wenzhuo and Ji Chunhua, the fights with Xiong Xinxin in Huang Feihong, the fights with Zhou Billy in Jingwu Fengyun, and Tai Chi Zhang Sanfengli and Qian Xiaohao’s. Fighting and so on.
These are the most classic and most talked about, and they are all equally matched. Both sides are duels of martial arts masters.
Zou Zhaolong, who has had opponents in movies such as Zhongnanhai Bodyguard, The King of Adventure, The Demon Lord of the Legend of the Dragon Slayer, and Li Lianjie said that among the actors who have cooperated in his life,
"What do you think of Yuan Heping's apprentice Zhen Zidan?" Qiao Feng said after thinking.
"Zhen Zidan?" Xu Ke was a little at a loss. The name was familiar, but he couldn't remember when he heard it.
"Well, Zhen Zidan. He is considered as Li Lianjie's younger brother, who was first discovered by Yuan Heping and starred in Laughing Tai Chi. Not long ago, he and Zhang Xueyou, Ren Dahua, and Zheng Yuling starred in a police movie, Special Police Tu Long." Qiao Feng laughed.
"Oh, it turned out to be him, I remember." When it comes to specific movies, Xu Ke immediately matched this name with the person in his impression.
When Laughing Tai Chi was released in 1984, the box office was pretty good. The box office of more than 6 million yuan was already very good when the box office of the topic was broken 10 million. The local box office alone allowed investors to make a lot of money. A sum, including the overseas box office, can earn a few million more.
Therefore, Zhen Zidan at that time can be said to be a new star in the film industry, especially in martial arts movies.
It's just a pity that the drama is considered to be popular, but it is not. Zhen Zidan felt that the development in Hong Kong was not good, so she returned to the United States, and then returned to Hong Kong again this year to film.
That is to say, Zhen Zidan’s mother Mai Baochan and Yuan Heping’s sister are good friends and sisters. Otherwise, like Zhen Zidan, who was praised by Yuan Heping in the past, but afterwards, regardless of the situation of running back to the United States, Yuan Heping would never give him a first Second chance.
After returning to Hong Kong this year, Yuan Heping once again praised Zhen Zidan. Among them, the special police Tu Long allowed Zhen Zidan to account for the most fighting scenes, spit out Zhen Zidan's personal characteristics.
"Special Police Slaying the Dragon" is one of the first few excellent Hong Kong action movies, with exciting plots, dynamic actions, exquisite martial arts combat, and fierce gun battles.Unlike Wu Yusen’s legendary depiction of gunfire, the style of this film is more rigid, more like the Miami Tianlong in its heyday.
The producer of this film is Debao, which is also a rare good movie after Debao and the Golden Princess fell apart and participated in the establishment of the new treasure theater.
Pan Disheng also got the film to be screened at this year's Cannes Film Festival, making it widely circulated in Europe, and Zhen Zidan was also praised there.
But although this movie became popular in Cannes, it performed just so after it was screened in Hong Kong.
The reason is actually very funny, and it also made director Yuan Heping a laughingstock for a while.
