Chapter 872 Series Movies

Xu's "Once Upon a Time" series is a huge breakthrough from previous martial arts action movies.

His "New Dragon Gate Inn" created a new martial arts style, but since "Once Upon a Time", kung fu and martial arts have been closely integrated with the feelings of family and country and the tide of the times.

Watching the "Once Upon a Time" series, what we see is not just the personal practice of a martial arts master who punishes evil and promotes good, nor is it just a gorgeous display of various Chinese Kung Fu.

The spirit in which everyone has experienced baptism, enlightenment, sinking, confusion, or courage in the context of the times has opened up vivid pictures for the audience.

Mr. Xu translated the "Once Upon a Time in China" series into China's Past, which deserves such a name.

As a senior filmmaker, Feng Buck Ya just read the script once and couldn't put it down.

As an intellectual with a strong literary and artistic flair in his heart, this kind of movie story can scratch his itch the most. And he understands better that such a story is not only very literary and artistic, but also can be loved by the audience.

Because the plot itself is very exciting and it is a very mature commercial movie.

It was only at this moment that Feng Buck Ya finally understood Xiao Qian's words.

Xiao Qian once told him that in fact, the boundary between commercial films and literary films is not that strict. Good commercial films may not be without artistry, and good art films may not be without commercial value.

In the past, Feng Buckya always felt that Xiao Qian's expectations were too high. How could business and art be achieved at the same time?

But now, after reading the script of "Once Upon a Time in China", he realized it!

It’s not that you can’t have both, but it requires extremely high creative standards to master.

No one noticed the change in Feng Buck Ya's temperament, but the real situation is this. Another top commercial director who is well-versed in everything is about to be born.

"The role of Huang Feihong must and can only be played by Yang Zhen."

Feng Buckya's attitude was very determined.

Although countless people have played Huang Feihong over the past few decades. But judging from the overall script, the only one who can control Huang Feihong is Yang Zhen.

First of all, this is a commercial movie, which requires actors to have box office appeal. Currently, those who have this ability in China are either Shen Jue or Yang Zhen.

Shen Jue is currently busy with the filming of "Haido" and has no other skills, so Feng Bao Ya can only choose Yang Zhen.

In fact, even if Shen Jue is available, Feng Buck Ya will only choose Yang Zhen.

Because the character Huang Feihong is not fictional, but a real person in history. He is famous in Lingnan and is a household name.

If such a martial arts master is played by an actor who is also a master of martial arts, the essence of it will not be captured at all.

Furthermore, Yang Zhen looks handsome, tough, and upright. Compared with Shen Jue's more modern handsomeness, he looks more like a traditional master.

"I thought so too."

Xiao Qian agreed with Feng Buckya's opinion and took advantage of the situation to help him establish his prestige.

Even his boss agreed, so naturally no one else would say anything.

"Contact Brother Zhen and tell him not to indulge in Wenrou Township and that it's time to come back and be a social animal."

A group of people laughed, wondering if Yang Zhen, who was far away in Japan, would be ashamed when he heard this.

"My opinion is that Wen Yi should play the role of Thirteenth Aunt. Her temperament is perfect for this kind of role."

Many people say that Thirteenth Aunt is the vase in "Once Upon a Time", but Xiao Qian doesn't think so.

In that turbulent and melancholy story background, the existence of Thirteenth Aunt is like a ray of moonlight that illuminates the night sky, and is the source of the movie's brilliance.

Guan Damei has been acting for a lifetime, but the only one who truly excels in her performance is Thirteenth Aunt.

After careful consideration, Xiao Qian decided to ask Wenyi to come out.

His proposal actually received unanimous applause from everyone.

Because in the minds of many people, only Wen Yi can control this female character where tradition and modernity, Eastern gracefulness and Western openness coexist.

"Yan Zhendong asked Ren Shiguan to play the role. The showdown between him and Yang Zhen will definitely be very interesting to watch."

Yam Shikwan was one of the first martial arts directors in Hong Kong to work at Starlight. His initial role was a small role in "Dragon Gate Inn". Later he appeared in many film and television dramas and acted as the martial arts director in many works.

Already quite famous in the circle.

This guy has a sinister face and sinister appearance, making him the perfect choice for the villain role.

In the original version of "Once Upon a Time in China", several of his fight scenes with Jet Li were all stunning, making the audience remember him deeply.

Xiao Qian had no reason not to use him.

"Let Zhou Bujie play the role of Liang Kuan."

Liang Kuan in his previous life was Yuan Biao at first, and later changed to Mo Shaocong.

But the images of the two are far different.

Yuan Biao's version of Liang Kuan is more rugged, while Mok Shaocong's version of Liang Kuan focuses on humor. But it is Mok Shaocong's version of Liang Kuan that is more loved and remembered by the audience.

When it came to Xiao Qian, he had neither Yuan Biao nor Mo Shaocong, so he simply let Zhou Bujie, who had a similar image, play the role.

Through "Young Bao Qingtian", Zhou Bujie is now a famous actor. But that was in the field of TV series, and in the field of movies, he is still the younger brother among younger brothers.

Playing a supporting role for Yang Zhen did not wrong him, on the contrary, it was of great benefit to broaden his acting career.

The two roles of Yaca Su and Zhu Zhurong were the most difficult for Xiao Qian.

The actors who played the roles in the original version were Song Shen and Zheng Zeshi, both of whom were experienced actors. Xiao Qian could not find anyone.

But these two roles are very important and they must be outstanding, so Xiao Qian is confused.

What he didn't expect was that Starlight's focus on cultivating talents over the years had shown results, and a screenwriter had proposed an ideal candidate.

"There is an actor named Sha Yi from the Air Force Repertory Theater. He starred in The Story of the Cooking Class this year. His image and acting skills are very good. I think he can be auditioned for the role of Yacasu. In addition, there is another character in The Story of the Cooking Class.

The actor named Jiang Chao looks wide and fat. If he gains weight, he should be able to play the role of Pork Rong."

Others still need to look through information to know who Sha Yi and Jiang Chao are, but Xiao Qian doesn't need that.

Good guys, Bai Zhantang and Li Dazui are here!

But if you think about it carefully, these two actors are really good.

Now Sha Yi is not greasy, and looks quite handsome. With a slight change of clothes, he will not be worse than the God of Song in his role as Yacasu.

As for Jiang Chao, although he cannot compare with Zheng Zeshi in terms of acting skills, his body shape is predictable.

And there is no need for him to follow Zheng Zeshi in playing Zhu Rong, he can also master this role.

"Your suggestion is good. Then you will be responsible for contacting these two people. If you can confirm it, let them come for an interview. If it doesn't work, we will look for you again."

The screenwriter didn't expect that he would be directly approved after recommending it with the idea of ​​giving it a try. He was so excited that he quickly agreed.

Even though he just recommended two actors, now that this matter has been spread, his status in the circle will be different.

After all, he is the one who can recommend actors in Starlight's works. Who doesn't value this kind of energy?

The character discussion for "Once Upon a Time in China" has ended here. Xiao Qian does not need to care about the remaining characters.

The others dispersed and started making preparations.

Xiao Qian kept Feng Buckya and wrote two more scripts.

"Although Once Upon a Time is part of the action movie series, in my plan, Once Upon a Time is a series in itself. These are the scripts for the last two movies. When you direct Top Gun, you should also think about these two scripts carefully.

Think about it, I will leave it all to you when the time comes."

I took on a job and before it started, the next job came again.

When had Feng Buck Ya ever encountered such a situation?

If all parties were like this, how beautiful the world would be!

He picked up two scripts and read them greedily.

One is "Once Upon a Time: Men Should Be Strong", and the other is "Once Upon a Time: The Lion King's Contest". The concept of the plot is even higher than that of "Once Upon a Time in the Sky", which made him laugh on the spot.

Obsessed.

"After these three films are filmed, Huang Feihong will have nothing to film from now on."

Feng Buck Ya made such an assertion, but he was absolutely right.

However, Xiao Qian also made detailed arrangements. He took out the script of "Once Upon a Time: The Lion King" separately.

"After finishing Top Gun, I will make this one next. As for the other men, I will work on my own and will not be included in the action movie plan, but it can be used as an easter egg and a gift to the audience."

"Why?"

Feng Buckya reacted quickly.

The action movie plan is produced according to regions. "Once Upon a Time in China" can be regarded as a work representing Guangdong Province, while "Once Upon a Time in China" is a work representing Beijing.

In this way, "Once Upon a Time: Men Should Be Strong" is the same as "Once Upon a Time: Top Gun".

Of course this cannot be included in the action movie plan.

But no matter what, he got the right to direct three movies at once, and at least he didn't have to worry about having nothing to do for two years.

"Leave it to me."

Feng buck teeth is full of confidence.

Among the three movies, his favorite is actually "The Lion King".

Not only because the scene of the lion king's fight for hegemony is more grand, but also because the story takes place in the capital.

He is good at filming stories about Beijing!
