Chapter 115 Father-son communication. She was afraid that I would turn over and crush her.

In the end, Huang Jinhao did not object to the filming of "Black Fist".

Because he has no better choice.

For the filming of "Black Fist", the script and many masters required for the fighting scenes are all available, and judging from the script, the funds required for this movie are indeed not much.

On the contrary, if "Black Fist" is not filmed, the masters invited by Li Zhongwu will have reasons to refuse to participate.

Not to mention, the total investment in the movie will definitely be higher.

The most important thing is - he thought about it carefully and felt that the script of "Black Fist" is not bad. Although the plot is a bit simple, if the effect of the fighting scenes can be guaranteed, then this is a very pure kung fu movie.

Anyway, the total investment for this movie couldn't be that high. After thinking for a moment, he decided to start filming.

Before leaving, he discussed some shooting details with Li Zhongwu.

For example, should we choose a warehouse as a venue for black boxing? Or an unfinished building? And how to arrange the layout inside? etc.

Finally, he asked who the seven experts Li Zhongwu invited were.



That night.

In the living room of Huang Zutao's residence, Huang Jinhao lazily held a cup of tea, leaned crookedly on the Taishi chair, and sipped the tea with squinted eyes.

His father, Huang Zutao, was wearing a dark gray nightgown and was sitting next to him, squinting as he read the script of Li Zhongwu's "Black Fist".

Time passes quietly.

Finally, Huang Zutao flipped through the last page of the script and read the last line of the script. He closed the script casually, raised his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose, and asked tiredly: "Ah Hao, are you sure you want to film this script?"

After a day's work on the set, he was already very tired.

Although his directing job seems to be the easiest on the entire set, he just has to use his words and sit there directing most of the time.

But he is old after all, and his energy is not as good as that of young people.

Moreover, the big and small things he needs to consider on the set every day are very exhausting. Usually when he returns home, he will take a rest soon.

But there is no other way. His son brought this script tonight and asked him to help him read it. As a father, he naturally had to work hard and help his son check it.

Huang Jinhao hummed, "Dad, how's it going? Do you think this script is okay?"

Huang Zutao stopped massaging the bridge of his nose and turned to look at his son, "Don't ask me for my opinion yet. Let me tell you how you feel first! What do you think of this script?"

Huang Jinhao had already made a judgment in his heart, so he opened his mouth and answered: "At first glance, the plot of this script is a bit too simple, but then I thought about it carefully and felt that this script is actually a very pure kung fu movie script. It is almost

The element of kung fu has been achieved to the extreme, almost from beginning to end. There are basically no other side details, but the few side details it has have brought together family, friendship and love. Therefore, this

Although there are many fighting scenes in the script, the male protagonist does not fight randomly without reason. From the first black boxing match, he only wants to earn money to treat his sister's illness. From this point of view, his reason is actually quite convenient.

Yes, if the film is done well, just for this reason, the audience will have a good impression of him.

So, if I can make the fight scenes exciting in this movie, it will be successful; on the contrary, if I can’t make the fight scenes well, the movie will collapse directly.”

Huang Zutao listened quietly to his son's understanding, and nodded slightly, "You are right, this is indeed a very pure Kung Fu movie script, and the reason for the male protagonist to engage in black boxing is indeed very convenient."

Having said this, he paused and said with a smile: "Speaking of this, I just want to mention one person."

Huang Jinhao was curious, "Who?"

Huang Zutao: "Zu Qifeng!"

Huang Jinhao was confused, "He? What's wrong with him? Dad, you don't want to recommend him to play the leading actor in this drama, do you? Oh, Dad! I don't agree with this. I didn't write this script. I didn't

I have the right to let Zu Qifeng play the leading role! Li Zhongwu can’t agree to it.”

Huang Zutao laughed, "What are you talking about? I didn't say that I wanted Zu Qifeng to act in this drama."

Huang Jinhao was puzzled, "Then why are you mentioning him?"

Huang Zutao didn't answer but asked: "Let me ask you, what do you think of Zu Qifeng's kung fu?"

Huang Jinhao said without thinking, "That's great! Among our great martial arts movie stars, his skills should be among the top five! What's wrong?"

Huang Zutao smiled and asked, "Do you think he is popular?"

Huang Jinhao frowned, thought for a while, and said hesitantly: "The reputation is not bad. People who like to watch Kung Fu movies should all know him. Even those who don't like Kung Fu movies, there should be many people who have heard of him.

name, but to say whether he is popular or not... I feel like he has never been very popular, and always feels that he has always been less popular. I think no one would object to saying that he is a famous kung fu actor, but if you say that he is

Kung Fu superstar, there are probably more people who oppose it. Dad, what exactly do you want to say?"

Huang Zutao, "Then why do you think Zu Qifeng has never become famous? Have you ever thought about the reason?"

Huang Jinhao thought for a moment and said uncertainly: "Is it... because he's not handsome enough?"

Huang Zutao chuckled, "Sun Xiu, who is much uglier than him, is more popular than him. How do you explain that?"

Huang Jinhao opened his mouth, but he had no words to argue.

Facts speak louder than words. Sun Xiu, who is also a kung fu star, is indeed much uglier than Zu Qifeng, but his popularity is much higher than Zu Qifeng.

The most important thing is - Sun Xiu's skill is obviously not as outstanding as Zu Qifeng's.

This confused Huang Jinhao. Why was Sun Xiu so much more popular than Zu Qifeng even though his appearance and skills were not as good as Zu Qifeng?

Huang Zutao: "I think Zu Qifeng has suffered a lot in these years because he has never gotten a good role, a role that most audiences like! If you think about it carefully, is this the truth?"

Huang Jinhao was startled, and subconsciously looked at the "Black Fist" script in his father's hand, recalling the setting of the male protagonist Li Wu in the "Black Fist" script, and the reason for playing black boxing...

After thinking for a while, he gradually understood something in his mind.

Looking at his father's face, facing his smiling gaze, Huang Jinhao asked softly: "Dad, you mean the role Zu Qifeng played before, although his appearance and kung fu were excellent, the audience didn't like him very much.

Because he is a character, he has never been able to become famous?"

Huang Zutao nodded, "That's right! If you think carefully about the roles that Zu Qifeng has played since his debut, they are either supporting roles with flawed personalities like the second male lead or the third male lead, or male protagonists with bitter and hateful personalities, or...

The male protagonist looks free and uninhibited, but is actually frivolous and slippery. If you think about it from the perspective of the audience, will you like the characters he plays?"

Huang Jinhao nodded slowly and agreed with his father's analysis.

Then, he said thoughtfully: "Dad, according to what you said, if I ask Zu Qifeng to play a better role later, will he be a big hit?"

Huang Zutao's eyes became strange, "Why do you want him to play a better role? If you have a good script and a good role, then why don't you go to the most popular Kung Fu superstars? Why do you want to go to him?

Zu Qifeng comes to take risks?"

Huang Jinhao was stunned.

Then he laughed and said, "I understand! It seems that Zu Qifeng is destined not to become a big star. No wonder the scripts he has acted in these years always have flaws of one kind or another. It seems that the best scripts have always failed him.

On your hands! This is so unlucky."

Huang Zutao smiled, raised the script of "Black Fist" in his hand, and brought the topic back to before, "So, as a script for a kung fu movie, the idea of ​​this script is very good! As for the final filming of the movie,

What kind of reputation and box office it can have depends mainly on the effectiveness of your cooperation with Li Zhongwu. If you can make the fighting scenes exciting, then even if the investment cost of this movie is very small, it may not be impossible for it to explode both in box office and reputation.

"

After a pause, he added: "As for you saying that the plot of this script is a bit too simple, I think it is an advantage! Kung Fu movies, Kung Fu movies... the biggest selling point is the word 'Kung Fu'. A complicated plot will weaken it."

The biggest charm of kung fu movies is that if the audience wants to watch a movie with a complex plot and endless suspense, then why not go directly to a suspense movie? If they want to watch a love story, why not go directly to a romance movie?

Kung Fu movies! As long as the fighting is reasonable and good-looking, it is qualified to be simple in script! It’s like a chef, as long as his cooking is delicious, it doesn’t matter whether he stutters or walks lamely,

If the marriage is a mess, everyone will say that he is a good chef! Do you think this is true? "

Huang Jinhao chuckled and nodded in agreement, "Dad, I understand what you mean. Keep improving on the core selling points. As long as you create the biggest highlight, you can cover up all the ugly with one beauty, right?"

Huang Zutao nodded: "That's about it! No movie can be without shortcomings. On the contrary, many movies that are praised as classics by the audience have many shortcomings of this and that kind, but are those important?

As a director, I will teach you a lesson today."

Huang Jinhao's curiosity was aroused, "What do you think?"

Huang Zutao: "Writing seems to look at the mountains but not the plains! A movie with no shortcomings and no advantages is a mediocre work. Only a movie with many shortcomings but one outstanding advantage can be a masterpiece!"

Huang Jinhao: "..."

Wen seems to look at the mountains and dislike the plains...

Huang Jinhao chewed this sentence in his heart and felt that it made sense.

After a while, he relaxed, took a sip of tea, and said lazily: "Hey, Dad, I'll give you a chance to pamper your son. When work starts tomorrow, help me talk to Ju Xudong and let him come to me."

I want to play a role in this new movie! I'm afraid I can't hire him, so I can only help you, hehe."

Huang Zutao rolled his eyes at him, threw the script into his arms angrily, got up and walked towards the bedroom.

"Go away! I get angry when I see your face! I don't know what evil I did in my previous life to give birth to a thing like you in this life..."

Huang Jinhao was scolded so much that he smiled and replied loudly: "Dad! You must have owed me something in your previous life, and you must pay it back in this life! Haha..."

"Grass! Damn!"

Huang Zutao uttered a curse word without looking back.
