Chapter 31 Draft
"Hey, I'm leaving. I'll give you a few stacks of flyers in a few days. When you go to collect the bill, I can send them to the store to promote them!" After taking the business license, Xie Changhua turned around and left.
"I know, Brother Hua, if you don't tell the big boss, you will ask us to do this, but you are crossing the river too fast and tearing down the bridge. Just leave after taking your things!" Chen Xi said jokingly.
Xie Changhua turned his head, smiled slightly, and shook the paper in his hand in front of his eyes: "Why, do you still want to keep me for dinner? There is no girl in the daytime. Why should I stay? Besides, I am very busy now.
I still have to go back and take charge of the overall situation."
Chen Xi grinned lustfully and said: "Look at what you said, you don't know how grateful Bobo and Alan are to you now. Once you open your mouth, coming to accompany you in broad daylight is a trivial matter."
"I'll take some practical actions to thank you. What's the point of talking about it? Ask them to take the initiative themselves." After Xie Changhua told the joke, he smiled and said: "I really don't have time. Let's talk next time."
"
"Well, I'll celebrate it for you when it comes out." He shouted towards Xie Changhua's retreating back.
When Xie Changhua came to the cutting room, the post-production staff had already gathered in the room waiting for Xie Changhua to make the final review.
"How's it going? Does it appeal to you, director?" Johnnie To asked after watching the final film.
Xie Changhua sat on the chair with his legs crossed, shook his head, and said with a smile: "You worked so hard, how could you fail? If you pass, you can have a good sleep tonight!"
"That's good. I'll send it up for review right away. You can continue chatting." Liu Shiyu packed up his things and went out immediately. Only three familiar people were left at the scene.
"Hey, I heard that you have plans for your next work. When do you plan to launch it?" Lao Du stretched out and asked pretending to be casual.
"How do you know, who said it?" Xie Changhua glanced at him.
"No, but she just gathered all the producers together and specifically discussed the idea of making a fashion action film. Let's go back and think about it carefully and make suggestions. We can get together in two days to discuss it. I'm thinking of you.
We just finished talking this morning, are you going to do this type of filming?" He pulled up a chair and sat across from Xie Changhua.
Wang Jing put his hands on the back of the chair and looked up at him.
Xie Changhua looked at them and chuckled a few times, but said nothing. He blinked and shook his head.
"What do you mean by shaking your head and blinking?"
Xie Changhua leaned on the back of his chair, sighed, and said with a playful expression: "My opinion, but I won't take this next step because the approval is too troublesome, but you can help me watch it and learn more about it.
After a while, I was about to shoot this type of film, so I asked Ms. Fang to help me explore the way first. She is famous for being very budget-conscious, and I planned to learn from it later to save some money. She told me
I went back and thought about it, but I didn’t expect to move so quickly.”
"Wow, you are really good at doing business. It seems that I don't have to worry about your company. Although there is no manpower at all now, I think you will save money like them in the future." Wang Jing said from the side.
vocal tract.
"Boss saves money, but I won't save money like the two of them!"
As soon as he said the words, Ah Jing ran to the door, looked outside, closed the door and rushed back: "Don't talk nonsense here, although we all know it, but we still go back and talk."
"I know, I know, I won't talk nonsense!" Xie Changhua nodded to express that he knew he was wrong.
"Hey, Ah Hua, since this is a good idea, why don't you film it yourself, so that everyone will remember your contribution in the future?" Johnnie To thought for a while and asked.
"Because I want to make money. Even if I make a fashion kung fu movie, I won't make much money. That won't be the case with my next one. I plan to design something special and sell it as a toy."
"Okay, you told me yesterday that you haven't thought about it yet. Tell me what you plan to shoot and tell us the general story." Wang Jing coaxed.
"Hmm~, the ancient martial arts film is set in the Tang and Song Dynasties. It is about the life-and-death showdown between swordsmen from Japan and swordsmen from the Central Plains." Xie Changhua thought for a while and said, he decided to copy Cheng Xiaodong's famous work, the life-and-death showdown setting.
, but the bad plot needs to be changed. It can be changed with reference to the unborn Fengyun and Chinese Heroes. This drama opened the era of martial arts movies flying around, so Xie Changhua decided to open the way with Wia and Sword Qi,
When filming flying fighting scenes, make the sword more beautiful, make the clothes more beautiful, look cool to the end, and start the era of selling goods, selling swords and clothes.
"How did you shoot this? What did you think, was it a joke?" Ah Jing asked doubtfully.
"No funny, serious and gorgeous fighting scenes!" Xie Changhua said seriously.
"Uh~, I'm not very optimistic about it. How do you plan to shoot it?" Ah Jing shook her head.
"Rb, there are just those kinds, cherry blossoms, heavy snow, samurai either commit suicide or kill people everywhere. At most, you can add some ninjas, hidden weapons and so on. Shaw Brothers has made some movies like this, and in the end it is the martial arts of the Central Plains that exposes the conspiracy.
I’m not very optimistic about you planning to follow this routine to win the victory!” Johnnie To thought for a while and said with a frown.
"Of course I have to innovate. I have already thought of several scenarios. Important people must die in the snowy day, parting must be staged during the cherry blossom season, samurai must be crazy about martial arts and finally driven crazy, ninjas must have hidden weapons, ninjutsu and
He is proficient in all kinds of escape techniques and has gorgeous moves, but throughout the whole movie he is just jumping into the street one by one."
"I don't understand what you are talking about, and Sakura, it's March and April, do you have to prepare for such a long time?" Wang Jing expressed his disapproval.
"Of course not. I'll shoot it myself when I can. If not, I plan to buy some film and graft it on. And I'm not fully invested in this movie. It doesn't matter if it fails. You take care of yourselves. I have my own plan." Although he said it, he didn't say it.
However, Xie Changhua is still prepared. People in Hong Kong will watch martial arts movies, and for Hong Kong people to find a good-looking movie, they only need to grasp a few points.
First, it must be a tragedy, and we must grasp human nature to discuss it. Therefore, the warrior must be very miserable and have to make difficult choices. Therefore, Xie Changhua gave a setting. A person with superb swordsmanship and love for his family was finally killed.
The father who pursues honor is forced step by step to kill his wife and sister, completely abandoning himself, and becomes a madman pursuing the peak of swordsmanship. Therefore, the first half must have a cheerful character, and the second half must have a sudden change.
The second most important thing is to die, a lonely person in a snowy day or a separation and a dead person in the cherry blossom season. In the Japanese and Korean dramas of the previous life, either I received a cancer notice during the first snowfall, or I discovered on that day that my lover turned out to be a half-brother and sister.
Or be directly hit and killed, so be sure to die immediately after receiving good news on an important and meaningful day.
Third, the fight must be rhythmic. On the one hand, the movements must be neat and gorgeous. On the other hand, there must be pauses and blank spaces before or during the fight. Shoot some confrontation scenes so that the audience can interpret the information themselves. Tsui Hark's martial arts films are popular in Japan and South Korea.
It is not as popular as A Chinese Ghost Story because there are too many action scenes and too dense a sense of participation. People just like things with delicate emotions and give them time to reflect on them slowly. Therefore, it is difficult to fully occupy the Hollywood popcorn movies of later generations.
