My Hong Kong Island Filmmaker

Chapter 184 A world where two heroes confront each other, I am not black, you are not white!

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!
"Swish..."

Wu Xiaozu held the drawing board, and the sketch pen "carved" the characters on the white paper word by word.

An investment of tens of millions is a new challenge for Wu Xiaozu.

He rose at the end of the century. Since "Rainy Night Butcher", "The Birth of a Prefix", and "Young and Dangerous", every movie has witnessed his growth. With the improvement of self-understanding of movies, there will be stages every time. Sexual self-improvement.

From the slant of the sword, to slowly getting better, and then to the new life.

Step by step, Wu Xiaozu used to use his own understanding to interpret the characters and stories under his lens.Every shot is condensed with his sweat and dedication.

He writes the script, finalizes the script of the film, draws the storyboard, surveys the location, establishes the lens, lighting and even the post-editing by himself.How have outsiders paid attention to the hard work and painstaking efforts?

Wu Xiaozu's starting point in the entertainment industry is low, coupled with his reputation for "unity" with his peers, he is a notorious shit-stirring stick and mad dog in the entertainment industry.His reputation is not much stronger than that of Mai Dangxiong in the previous two years.At the very least, Mai Dangxiong has a better foundation than him behind him, and at the same time has a better relationship with Jiahe than him.

copy?

Cheating?

copy?

In fact, since the first "Rainy Night Butcher", Wu Xiaozu has mixed a lot of his own ideas and styles in addition to his commercial sense.After struggling through the three films, he found an opportunity to direct a big cast and a big production.

Director is a profession that especially needs a sense of the times and life experience.

We often find that some great directors who are amazingly talented will always become mediocre over time.This in itself is the inaccuracy of the self's sense of the times and the limitation of life experience.

Film directing is a very simple job, as long as you can shout "Action", you are enough to play this role.

At the same time, directing is an extremely demanding job that requires awe. This profession requires you to have strong overall planning ability, rational judgment, sufficient life experience, meticulous observation and unrepeatable artistic creativity.

If a director wants not to be abandoned by the times, he must sink his heart to experience, explore, and observe this era with cold eyes.

Wu Xiaozu's biggest cheat is not the blurred memory in his head.His biggest golden finger is that his sense of the times is not limited to the 80s and 90s, and his grasp of the pulse of the times is wider than others... and the accumulation is more profound.

On the drawing board, white doves spread their wings, a choir is singing, and black stick figures are dancing flamboyantly. The whole painting is full of exaggeration and paradox.

Beside this painting, infinite shadows are outlined by pencils. A stick figure man walks out from the darkness, with a pair of protruding eyes staring at him from behind, implying commitment and responsibility.

A giant "X" separates the two paintings, creating a chic balance.

Below, a pompous vampire-like man holding a gorgeous pistol confronts a heavy-faced handsome man with a gun.Sideways eyes, one unscrupulous, one heavy sorrow.

Wu Xiaozu took six hours to paint this simple painting.At the feet, countless balls of paper were spread all over the ground, and half-length pencils were also scattered on the ground.

"..."

Liang Jiahui walked into the room, and the manuscript papers all over the floor made it difficult for him to get down. He proudly picked up a ball of paper. Inside the wrinkled white paper, two men sat there, one stood there, and looked at each other.

The man who sat there was blind-eyed and handcuffed.

The standing man is holding a bouquet of flowers, the corners of his mouth are raised, and his legs are twisted in a T-step.

One background is painted with pencil shadows, and the other is behind an iron fence, and a ray of light struggles to penetrate.

This painting makes Liang Jiahui's heart tighten. The strong contrast between the two people in the painting constitutes a strange balance.Without any one, the painting would appear unbalanced and abrupt.

"Oh, how about it?"

A smile sounded in Liang Jiahui's ears, and the drawing paper in his hand was suddenly taken away, only then did he regain his senses.

"This is the story of the duel between the two heroes you told?" Liang Gahui passed a cigarette to Wu Xiaozu, but he couldn't help being startled when Wu Xiaozu handed him a few pages of densely packed materials.

"The background information of the characters, you can use it to complete it." Wu Xiaozu said.

"Being so kind to me? Have you prepared all the biographies?" Liang Jiahui accepted the materials with a smile.

"Your opponent should be Zhou Runfa."

Wu Xiaozu walked past him and patted his friend on the shoulder.

Liang Jiahui turned his head away, looked into Wu Xiaozu's eyes, smiled faintly at the corner of his mouth, and raised the documents in his hand, "How much time do I have to prepare?"

"One month..." Wu Xiaozu added, "I need to confirm the shooting location, communicate with the crew and actors."

Liang Jiahui tightened his grip on the documents, and nodded with a bright smile.

A good actor must have strong self-confidence and pride.

During the recent period, the media all overwhelmingly praised Xiao Ma, who has fairy hair, as the best candidate for the sixth best actor.Little did he know that Liang Jiahui also contributed a "Lin Guoyun" that far surpassed "Xianfeng".

In terms of the excitement of the characters, Lin Guoyun is as good as Xiao Ma!

"By the way, the room will trouble you." Wu Xiaozu who walked out of the room suddenly turned his head, pointed to the messy room and said to himself, "I don't know when Sister Jiahua will come back and see you tossing the room like this... "Speaking of this, he cast a self-seeking look at Liang Jiahui to give encouragement.

"??"

Looking at the messy room, Liang Jiahui thought about how peaceful he was when he kindly allowed him to come home to create, but he was eating him, sleeping with him, and framing him before he left...

Liang Xiaoyu wished he could hack this guy to death with a knife.

In the past few days, Wu Xiaozu purposely went to Liang Jiahui's place to hide for peace in order to "replenish energy" and perfect the new play.

Jiang Jiahua and Su Liyao were looking for an office building during this time.

It was no problem for 1024 Locomotive Film Studio to be located in a tea restaurant at first, but it is naturally not suitable now.

Whether it is a film company or any other type of company, as it develops and grows, the company framework needs to be really built.

A grassroots team like 1024 Locomotive Film Studio can't be regarded as a formal enterprise.

Take the accounting of the box office in this port and other cities as an example. This work requires special financial personnel to be responsible.Publicity, finance, and film production are all the most basic departments in themselves, but before that, the nature of the company of 1024 Locomotive Studio will not be much higher than that of street food stalls!

In addition, now that there are two new and popular stars, Luo Yijian and Zhou Huimin, Wu Xiaozu himself finds it inconvenient if the 1024 locomotive continues to stay in the tea restaurant.

Wang Xianxian, who is determined to come up with an album, can practice her voice very loudly every night on the bed.

You can't rent the clock hotel every day, can you?
Therefore, Grand Duke Wu Xiaozu approved the 1024 locomotive to move out of Longcheng Ice Room with a selfless wave of his hand.

Wu Xiaozu decided that the theme of the new play will be "Double Heroes".

The movie setting of the confrontation between the two heroes is an immortal monument in the history of Hong Kong movies!This setting has made great contributions to many mainstream commercial films in later generations.

Every film director will have his own unique film style and concept.

Wu Xiaozu's personal style of space, positioning, camera and violent aesthetics is fully displayed in the three films.Even his transformed "Young and Dangerous" can vaguely see this shadow.

Therefore, Wu Xiaozu simply returned to the kind of black humor movies he was good at handling, and played a violent confrontation with a big cast.

Any director will have areas that he is good at and not good at.

A rational and cold-blooded person like Wu Xiaozu can't really produce that kind of nonsensical comedy.

The accuracy of self-awareness is also a point that Wu Xiaozu surpasses others.

……

Da Rong Film Company.

Workers removed the "Da Rong" signboard and reinstalled a plaque titled "Yingzhijie Film Company".The golden company signboard is particularly eye-catching.

The front desk is still the same front desk, and the boss is still the same boss.

Boss Deng failed to frame Wu Xiaozu, so he stopped for a while.This month I ran back and forth between Wanwan and Omen. "Young and Dangerous" was released, and it was only then that he returned to Hong Kong.

The first thing he did when he came back was to cancel "Da Rong Film Company" and re-registered a film company called "Shadow Master".

The signboard of "Da Rong" stinks the street. When everyone mentions Da Rong Film Company, they can't help but think of "Brother Xianshi".

Luo Liang and "Shengbao" have really attracted a lot of "fan fans" by virtue of the gimmick of "salty and wet fans".

In order to avoid trouble and eliminate the influence, Boss Deng also changed his vest and re-opened the "Yingzhijie Film Company".

Relying on his connections in the entertainment industry in the past, he has made a lot of investments in Wanwan and Omen, and now he is like a lonely young woman asking for a child with a lot of money...

In the office, the thin Hou Xiaoyan was standing on the sofa, holding a storyboard in his hand, flipping through the lecture page by page——

"Under the rapidly changing urban tide, family affection, friendship, and love all confuse moral judgments, and the crazy pursuit of material things constantly subverts ethical standards.

The grievances and grudges of the family, the underworld, and the school collided with each other, resulting in intricate entanglements.These are the youth and memories of teenagers. "

Hou Xiaochen explained his creative intentions eloquently. When he revealed that he was the main creator of "Young and Dangerous", and that he was also shooting a film about urban teenagers and youth, and the film also involved underworld elements, Deng Guangrong invested with a wave of his hand without even thinking about it.

Nowadays, no one knows that "Young and Dangerous" is a gold mine waiting to be developed. As he knows, many independent film companies have already approved more than a dozen films about "Young and Dangerous".

This trend is as turbulent as the wave of zombies, gun battles, and strange cases back then!
He had heard the name of Hou Xiaochan before in Wanwan, and he was considered one of the new generation of directors in Wanwan.At the same time, this guy is also the producer of "Young and Dangerous".With this kind of qualifications, it is worth Deng Guangrong's investment.

"My movie is the same as "Young and Dangerous", and it also has comics..." Hou Xiaochen recalled Wu Xiaozu's telling him to be honest, and said quickly, "My story was born out of the Japanese comic "Daughter of the Nile"..."

"Director Hou, there is absolutely no problem with the investment. You can make a count—" Deng Guangrong was elated, looking at Hou Xiaochen as if he saw a peerless treasure.This is clearly his cornucopia and cash cow!

Hou Xiaochen sighed in his heart.

really!

Hong Kong island filmmakers have a real love for movies!
Wu Xiaozu is an honest gentleman, honesty does not deceive me.

Deng Guangrong has a good vision, but it may be that he has been an actor for too long. He is used to observing a film from the perspective of a filmmaker.

Looking at the problem from this perspective, where is there any problem with Hou Xiaochen's script?Behind him is Zhu Tianwen, a gold medal screenwriter.Is it more reliable than Wang sunglasses?
