Wang Zhengfei just took the title of chief creator. Only he himself knew that he only provided the skeleton of a script. Even taking the title of chief screenwriter mostly meant borrowing the title, but he
I don't mind.
Anyway, it was always like this in the past. When he first debuted, that was when he was filming "Immortality", and he used the fame of Chen Daoming and others to gain the popularity of "Immortality".
When "Immortality" was just released, in addition to the name of the legendary brother Wang Zhengfei and the name of the science fiction blockbuster "Immortality", what was more important was the fame of Chen Daoming, Huang Xiaoming and others. Otherwise, it would not have been possible at that time.
If so many people are attracted to watch it, the box office may be good, but it will definitely not be that exaggerated.
After accepting interviews for a while, Wang Zhengfei and the crew entered the cinema one by one and sat down. The crew sat in the front row, while the audience and reporters sat in the back row as usual.
After a while, the movie started to play. The first thing that came up was the logo of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau, and then the star-printed logo that Wang Zhengfei was very familiar with. Are you not familiar with it? This was made by Wang Zhengfei himself. It was designed by him from head to toe.
.
The plot arrangement of "Crazy Racing" still adopts the multi-line narrative style of the movie "Crazy Stone".
The first line is the protagonist Geng Hao played by Huang Bo. After finishing second in a road cycling race with a difference of 0.01 seconds, Li Farah, a manufacturer and seller of fake health products, asked Geng Hao to shoot an advertisement. Geng Hao was in the advertisement
During the filming process, I drank the bottle of so-called "kidney silver" containing various unknown substances provided by Farah Li.
The first thing that appeared was Huang Bo's unimpressive face. Most of the audience this time were still fans of "Crazy Stone", and Huang Bo's outstanding performance in it also left a deep impression on them.
When I saw Huang Bo with an embarrassed look on his face while filming a "Kidney Silver" commercial for bad businessman Li Farah, the audience below began to laugh quietly. Compared with "Crazy Stone", "Crazy Racing"
It’s much faster to get into the action.
Immediately afterwards, after drinking, he was taken by his master for a post-match urine test. When the urine test results came out, he was named Chengyang, so Geng Hao was banned from the game for life. After hearing the news, Geng Hao's master was extremely angry and had an old habit.
He suffered a blood clot and was paralyzed in a wheelchair, unable to move freely. After that, the protagonist Geng Hao could only drive a refrigerated truck and deliver seafood to earn some money to support himself and his master, who was paralyzed in a wheelchair. Many things happened.
A peaceful day passed like this, but one day Geng Hao's master accidentally saw Li Farah and a group of people on TV wearing Superman costumes and promoting their so-called new product "Super Man" in a stadium.
Advertisement. Geng Hao's master was so angry that he tried to stand up tremblingly. Unfortunately, something happened. He fell downstairs and died.
There are a lot of jokes here, especially the 'Super Man' advertisement, which is hilarious. The slogan at the beginning is: "Super Man, no matter what, no matter what"; when Li Farah was chased and beaten by Geng Hao
, the slogan put out by those people became "No man can do it"; by the time of the last round of Ludao racing, the slogan put out by those people changed to "No man can do it".
The plot progressed to the point where Geng Hao had to go to the stadium to ask Li Farah for his master's funeral expenses in order to bury his master.
This leads to the second, third and fourth lines in the plot. A group of gangsters from Taiwan are conducting drug transactions with a Thai drug lord in the athletes' lounge. Outside the stadium, Li
The killer hired by Farah's wife was sitting in the refrigerated truck stolen from Geng Hao, looking for opportunities to kill Li Farah. In fact, the two hired killers were hired by Li Farah to kill his wife before killing Li Farah. However,
Li Fara's wife offered more money than Li Fara's salary, so the two killers in turn killed their husbands on behalf of the wife. At this time, Geng Hao failed to get money, so he beat up Li Fara.
The situation attracted two eager policemen. The arrival of the police completely disrupted the drug trade in the lounge. When the Thai drug lord put on the clothes in Li Farah's car and escaped, he was hijacked by two killers who thought he was Li Farah.
The plot of the film has developed to this point, and several groups of completely unrelated characters have become entangled together.
The audience enjoyed watching it. Sure enough, this is the style of Wang Zhengfei and Ning Hao's movies, with several completely unrelated main lines completely entangled together.
Rather than watching the plot of the movie, Wang Zhengfei paid more attention to the interstitial advertisements in the movie. Although the specific number of sponsors has not been disclosed, it is certain that "Crazy Racing" is a commercial movie.
, the physical exchange and income from product placement saved a lot of costs for the film.
Advertisers sponsor various props and provide shooting locations for free to the producers, which greatly reduces the production cost of the film. Secondly, the advertisers obtain the rights of product placement through direct payment, and the producers receive a considerable sum of money.
income, thereby reducing the investment risk of the film.
Wang Zhengfei didn't ask about this, but he knew that it was almost like this. In fact, he came up with the idea. In this era, not many people realized that inserting advertisements in movies was also a good way to avoid risks.
In fact, if "Qin Shi Mingyue" was not really suitable for inserting advertisements, he would definitely insert advertisements into "Qin Shi Mingyue", which could effectively reduce costs.
However, Wang Zhengfei just mentioned it casually. Unexpectedly, Ning Hao did such a good job in the end that there was almost no trace of deliberateness.
After a while, Wang Zhengfei was attracted by the plot again. Li Farah accidentally killed his wife, but put the blame on Geng Hao; while the drug lord in Thailand was frozen to death in a refrigerated carriage; at the same time, the gangster carrying the US dollar and the urn holding the ashes were separated due to misunderstanding.
Geng Hao conducted a transaction, but the two killers who obtained the drugs misunderstood the plainclothes policemen who were chasing Geng Hao as the targets of the transaction.
Basically, one link after another is exciting, especially the funny sentences in the plot, which instantly shocked countless viewers.
Underworld, whether there is one or not, what they want is atmosphere, absolute solemnity, absolute momentum, sending paper money to the mourning hall, one-stop funeral service... such a good service, I work here every day, I can't wait to give it
Get your own set!"
“We are a noble community here, with wind and water, underground CBD, and the back garden of life!”
Listening to the countless applause after the movie, Wang Zhengfei knew they succeeded!
The next day, reviews from major media outlets came out one after another, and they were basically all positive reviews.
The greater significance of "Crazy Racing" lies in its enlightening effect on Chinese films, which have been in a state of sub-healthy development. Under the existing market scale and financial operation model, "Crazy Racing" has undoubtedly made a fruitful move.
Try, and I clearly heard that this movie is a loud slap in the face of some people - stop looking for excuses such as funding, censorship, distribution channels, etc. for your inferior movies. Sincerity and talent are the most important.
Important." - Popular Fashion Weekly "In "Crazy Racing", there are more than a dozen main characters who have a direct role in promoting the plot.
In their own behavioral logic, the psychological motivations of these people are in great contrast with their external behaviors or objective encounters. The ironic comedy effect is very obvious. For example, the four people who adhered to the rules of the game were confused by various emergencies.
The professional gangster from Taiwan who was confused and embarrassed, and the two stupid thieves who had just debuted but had to show their professionalism at all times, the two of them contributed a lot of jokes, and the comedy factor in each of them
It arises naturally as the plot progresses. Just in terms of the way the comedy effect is created, "Crazy Racing" and Feng Xiaogang's movies are completely different.
Most of the so-called "laughing fruits" in Feng Xiaogang's movies come from the skit-style dialogue of the character played by Ge You. The plot and character design in the film basically create opportunities and situations for Ge You to speak. What is worth despising is that these from
The destructive power of the Wang Shuo-style ridiculing language that Feng Xiaogang has been using since "The Story of the Editorial Department" more than ten years ago has been very limited, but Feng Xiaogang is still enjoying it wishfully. If you separate these languages, you will find that this
It is not a comedy movie at all. Although the movie is inseparable from language, it is not simply a language art. Otherwise, cross talk can be made into a movie. As a form of entertainment, movies must have their own unique means and techniques, which can
It brings people irreplaceable enjoyment. Although Feng Xiaogang's movies made some audiences laugh, whether it was spontaneously or coerced by the surrounding audience, whether it was because of the movie itself or the kidnapping psychological suggestion effect of Feng Xiaogang and Ge You on the audience!"
——Popular Films "A good script is so important to a movie. In "Racing", the power of the script is indeed reflected. This movie still follows the plot line of Guy Ritchie's crime movie.
Under the guidance of a core motive, several clues go hand in hand, and the event moves irreversibly towards madness. Wang Zhengfei's re-creation of this plot pattern in "Crazy Stone" is already very mature, and in "Crazy Racing",
Wang Zhengfei finally achieved a comprehensive transcendence of this narrative style. The core props being chased here changed from one to two - cash and drugs. There are also two murder cases running through it. Around this, more than a dozen characters from the Six-Party Force
Tangled together, here is not only the chase around the main plot, but also the side plots in which the forces of any two parties push each other. The amount of information is huge. This not only gives the audience enough enjoyment, but also challenges the audience's intelligence.
The audience has to make quick and accurate judgments about the characters' long-term and stage-based mission motivations and the ownership of items, so the fun they get from it will double exponentially. Obviously, those who ignore the audience's IQ and only know that
A copycat movie that is just a vulgar spoof is not on the same level as "Racing"." - Watch the movie "Compared with "Crazy Stone", "Racing" is an ensemble drama, with more than ten people.
Almost all of the main characters are outstanding. Although Huang Bo is the male lead, he doesn't actually play many roles in the film, but his performance is still eye-catching. The rough athlete Geng Hao, who is kind-hearted and domineering, is better than the one in "Stone".
The silly thief with black skin is more dramatic and three-dimensional. Like Bao Shihong (Guo Tao) who fights for his factory, his family and his dignity in "Stone", Geng Hao's filial piety to his coach and mentor is the main story line throughout "Racing".
Such a humane setting ensures a touch of warmth and justice in the black comedy and avoids blind cynicism.
Just like Heipi and Dao Ge in "Stone", the two stupid thieves in "Racing": "Brother-in-law" and "Brother-in-law" are also amazing. The older newcomers Wang Shuangbao and Bado, who play the second roles, also gained recognition through this film.
He will definitely become a phenomenal comedian in the Chinese film industry after Huang Bo and Liu Hua.
In this film, Wang Zhengfei's ability to control the script has been very concentratedly reflected, which makes us full of expectations for his next work, which is "Qin Shi Mingyue". Although a novel version has already been released,
But everyone is looking forward to seeing whether Wang Zhengfei can produce a story with his own style!" - Nandu Weekly.
"New director Ning Hao is another comedy film after "Crazy Stone". According to the reaction of the audience that day, "Crazy Racing" is a well-made comedy movie!" - News Network.
Of course, what surprised Wang Zhengfei the most was that News Network also broadcast "Crazy Racing News". This made Wang Zhengfei and everyone at Xingchen Entertainment stunned. News Network, they actually went on News Network, maybe foreigners
It is difficult to understand the status of News Network in China. It is true that with the deepening of reform and opening up, the programs of major TV stations are becoming more and more abundant, and the ratings of News Network are getting lower and lower. However, it is undeniable that the huge influence of News Network is basically
The things that appear on Xinwen Network are all national events and people's livelihood matters. Although the format is basically fixed, many people can write Xinwen Network articles in a joking manner. But if it can be published on Xinwen Network, how much of a sensation will it cause? Although
It was just a mention, but it was enough to make Wang Zhengfei very happy. Don't forget, there is half of Wang Zhengfei's investment in it, plus 20% of the shares in Xingchen Entertainment. Basically, this time "Crazy Racing"
He alone accounted for 60% of the final income of "The Movie", which even exceeded Gao Yan's income. Gao Yan had nothing to do about it. He had already expected this before filming started.
