My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 1377 What kind of movie is "Big Brother"?
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket!Ask for a monthly pass!
Xia Chan called the world narrow.

The heat wave is full of anxiety, lurking in the heart, and the curiosity hidden in the busy traffic, wearing impetuous clothes, stirs up boredom and gathers in Causeway Bay.

There has never been a day as crowded and sweaty as today in the summer vacation.

In the afternoon, the fireball was scalding.

The poster of "Ninety-two Condor Heroes: The Long Sword of Infatuation" hanging on the theaters under the Golden Princess is particularly eye-catching.

Liu Dehua and Guan Zhilin are very good screen CPs, attracting many young people to buy tickets and enter the stage to support.

The movie theme song "Thank you for your love" sung by Hua Tsai is also sung in the streets and alleys. The opening line, "Don't ask me, how many people have I loved in my life..." The nasal and vibrato made many female students feel like "I am miserable." Already, I'm in love la' feeling.

Not far away, in "Shark Invasion" at Yonggao Theater, there are many people dressed as sharks doing activities on the street, and it even plays the gimmick of "science fiction horror movie" and "Hong Kong island disaster movie".

The publicity strategy focuses on special effects.

This kind of publicity also attracts many young people who are curious about this subject.

You have to admit that once Spielberg used "Jaws" to help Hollywood knock on the influence of the world market. This movie played the "Hong Kong version of "Jaws"" science fiction film Light's name.

Luo Jiecheng even announced in the newspaper, "This is an epoch-making work that created a Chinese science fiction disaster movie!" '

In short, there are endless drafts of various hyped disaster movies.

There is a big one, you sing the excitement of my appearance.

but--

On the contrary, the announcement of "Big Brother", which received a lot of attention among movie fans some time ago, was not so intensive.

It's just a serious publicity routine, and it seems that it doesn't put all its thoughts on this movie that the outside world has been "coming out after a long time".

"A new chapter for the hero movie!?"

"The life experience of a gangster based on a true story."

"The second Lame Man?"

In any case, "The Lame Man" really opened the prelude to the Hong Kong-produced heroic movies. In the past year, more than a dozen movies with the theme of heroic biographies have been released. …

Therefore, the market's predictions for "Big Brother" are basically the routine of "The Lame Man".

Indeed it is.

At least in the eyes of many Hong Kong filmmakers, "The Lame Man" is undoubtedly the pinnacle of heroic films.

In fact, the heroic films were pushed forward. As early as 1975, "The Storm of Integrity" directed by Wu Siyuan was a film set on Hong Kong Island at the turn of the 70s and [-]s. It is the earliest distant memory of the heroic films.

Of course, the definition of this generation of heroic films is still because of Mai Dangxiong's "The Lame Man".

It is even slightly different from the previous life. In this life, Lu Liangwei appeared in several of Wu Xiaozu's movies, which can be regarded as honing his acting skills. Therefore, in this life, with the role of Laihao, he won the honor of Best Actor at the Academy Award. To a certain extent, this movie has raised a very iconic banner.

These follow-up heroic films on Hong Kong Island are all in the same way.

"The Legend of Five Billion Inspector Lei Luo", "The Legend of Five Billion Inspector Lei Luo II, Father and Son's Enmity", "Legend of Blue River: Anti-flying Team Storm" and the upcoming "Four Detectives", and Yongsheng's The "Casino Tycoon" series are all filmed according to this template.

The audience thinks so too.

It's really cool to shoot a movie like this... All of them are based on real people and real events, describing the crimes of gang leaders before the establishment of the ICAC or the corruption of the early police force.Belonging to the quasi-biographical film with legendary color, it is also true and false.

Many audiences feel about "The Lame Man", and they also think that this is a rare work with epic temperament.

After all, the city of Hong Kong Island has its own unique development history, and heroic movies are rare movies that can carry the historical memory of this city...so it is rare and strange.

Wu Xiaozu didn't quite agree.

The seemingly epic temperament of these films is nothing more than a specious romance about that period of history, neither epic nor temperament.

Or the next definition.

Hong Kong island filmmakers are not good at dealing with this kind of documentary film. The result of documentary is often that the drama is weakened, and the psychological depth is not fully displayed.

So when they shoot great men and the Nanchang Uprising, they will show the kind of young and Dangerous temperament with a watermelon knife slashing at each other.

It can probably be said arbitrarily that they have no belief or understanding of this period of history.

This is the missing precipitation in the bones.

During the 99 years of earth transformation, they did not empathize with the heroic blood and pride of the rivers and mountains.

Not to mention that there are still those people who 'escaped from Hong Kong' on Hong Kong Island.

They have all fled to Hong Kong, so there is no need to talk about passion... that is survival and life.

Not that it's bad.

But there are always some people who have indeed surpassed the value of our common people, and then go to throw their heads and blood for this nation and country.That's why they should be remembered all the more.

So be it,
A lot of content that needs to be expressed exists in the bones... This does not involve the level of personality or values, but the differences in understanding of works, characters, and history.

To describe this in four words is 'cultural deviation'.

In later generations, Wu Xiaozu saw the greatness of this country with his own eyes!
He has really experienced what it means to be born under the red flag and grow in the spring breeze. The people have faith, the country has strength, and the nation has hope. Everywhere you look is China, and the five stars shining are all faith..." The vigorous shock .

"Dongfeng" told him, what the fuck should be called national self-confidence!

It is definitely not the so-called aesthetic concept of some so-called elites.

Let's say that.

Compared with other filmmakers in Hong Kong Island now.

Wu Xiaozu went to Hollywood because Hollywood now needs him to make money for them, akimbo for a while! ! !

Of course.

Even though the announcement of "Big Brother" didn't have as many strange tricks as before, there are still some cards that should be there...

"Ka Ka Ka, is that Hu Zhenting???"

"The big-nosed dragon is here too??? Isn't he a competitor? His movie will be released tomorrow, right?"

"Gu Hong! Brother Fa! Look here—Brother Hui is waving!"

"Girl Twice poses, oh maiga, sisters must buy their... new album."

"Chengcheng, Li Ming, Brother Xueyou, look here, look here..."

"Master Xing and the crew of "Detective Airplane Head" are here, he and Zhang Min are not really together, are they?"

"Is that the eldest son of the Zheng family?"

"No way? Fan Liu is here too???"

The paparazzi and reporters stood guard in front of the theater for the premiere, and suddenly discovered that there are too many famous people in Hong Kong! !
Almost all the stars in the circle whose itineraries do not conflict have arrived.

There are also many familiar figures of the rich, famous and famous ladies in the city.

This shocked them.

Is Li Licheng such a big name? ? ? ?
Uh……

In other words, Fei Cheng is indeed very famous... He was also selected as one of the top ten young people on Hong Kong Island this year.

There is no way, the enterprises under him have brought many people to employment.

Of course, most people know that these people came here for Wu Xiaozu's face...

In the theater, Wu Xiaozu wore a shirt, trousers and round glasses. He was gentle, elegant and easy-going, and personally greeted every guest who came to support him.

It is enough to save face that people can take the initiative to come to my side to support when so many movies in the circle are premiering!
"thanks, thanks."

Wu Xiaozu looked at the big-nosed dragon bouncing up and down with its small eyes full of wisdom, and he also smiled and took the initiative to clasp his fists.

"Is it interesting enough?" Brother Long gave a warm hug and whispered, "I'm sorry, the summer vacation time is set by Master Qi, and I can't change it..."

"It's nothing, I won't hurt you and my brothers." Wu Xiaozu also smiled and patted each other's back.

"That's good, I'll introduce Niu to you later."

Don't talk about it.

Brother Long is an honest and real man.

He talked about the life gate of a man with his mouth shut.

Most men don't say anything about anyone, we call time management gurus, we call scumbags, but...

Who dares to say that he has not fantasized about replacing it?
Luo Shi's small electric buttocks let alone women, even men look forward to it!

Who the hell doesn't want to hit five times a second?

Obviously, Brother Long is indeed a senior scumbag.But it doesn't prevent Wu Xiaozu from treating him as a relative and friend.

"Come inside, Brother Ting."

Seeing Hu Zhenting coming to join him, Wu Xiaozu also showed a smile and took the initiative to greet him.

"You and I don't need to be polite." Brother Hu wore big glasses, smiled kindly, and offered to extend his hand, "Everyone is here to support you."

"Hello Mr. Liu...Hello Mr. Zheng" Wu Xiaozu also greeted Liu Luanxiong and Mr. Zheng in time when he saw him.

Although everyone has a complicated relationship, they still maintain a good attitude on the surface.

"Wu Sheng, this "Big Brother" doesn't seem to have enough publicity in my opinion? What kind of film is this?" Mr. Zheng took the initiative to joke, "I think you have been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai."

"Where is there... The summer season is full of wind and clouds, and I am also exhausted. But this drama itself is not going to the box office..." Wu Xiaozu said with a half-truth and half-fake smile.

As for whether you believe what he said or not, you can't help but know.

But Wu Xiaozu really didn't really aim for the box office for "Big Brother", otherwise he wouldn't overthrow it again and make major changes again.

In terms of investment alone, this movie is actually not low or high.

The biggest problem is actually the food, drink, housing and transportation of the crew. After all, star participation is basically half-selling and half-free, and the salary is pitifully low... Most of the actors don't even have a salary.

So the investment is not as big as the outside world sees.

Besides...

The financing of this drama also comes from investors, and no matter how much it pays, it will not be able to compensate Wu Xiaozu.

Still the same sentence, unless it is absolutely necessary, the director will never use his own money to make a movie.

"Everyone, please come inside." At this time, Fei Cheng also took the initiative to greet him.

Hearing this, everyone walked into the theater with a smile and took their seats one after another.
