Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1775 Violent Aesthetics
Originally, Wang Jing was looking at Lin Daoqiu expectantly, but he didn't expect that this movie called "The True Colors of a Hero" had nothing to do with him.

"Let's talk about your business later."

Lin Daoqiu turned his head and explained to Wang Jing, which made the other party heave a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Lin Daoqiu was not really invited to drink tea today, otherwise Wang Jing would be really depressed.

After that, Tsui Hark, Yuan Kui and Cheng Xiaodong also arrived at the scene one after another.

"Aesthetics of Violence..."

It was the first time Tsui Hark and others had heard of Lin Daoqiu's idea.

"You can't understand things like artistic conception, and everyone will discuss it during the shooting..."

"The film "The True Colors of Heroes" that I want to shoot is a movie that mainly focuses on gunfights. In this movie, [-]% of the action scenes are mainly explosions and gunfights."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Tsui Hark and others seemed a little surprised.

Because before that, the modern action movies shot by Lin Daoqiu focused on gun battles and explosives plus clever martial arts design, which was a combination of these three modes.

Now Lin Daoqiu suddenly wants to make a movie that mainly focuses on gunfights, and it is also a violent aesthetic, which makes them all feel very fresh.

It's just that the aesthetics of violence is Wu Yusen's characteristic. If he wants to make good use of this, Lin Daoqiu alone will definitely not be able to do it.

If it is said that he can write the script, but the performance and reaction of the actors in it all depend on the director's guidance and sometimes the on-site reaction, which cannot be performed just by reading the script.

"It seems that Mr. Lin has a new idea this time. If this is the case, then I will be under a lot of pressure as a producer."

Although Tsui Hark said this, besides the pressure, he was more pleased.

Action movies with modern themes have always been the genre Tsui Hark wanted to make, but he has never been able to find a good script.

When Lin Daoqiu, the real gold medal screenwriter, stood up, the script was no longer his worry.

The question now is how to present the violent aesthetics that Lin Daoqiu wants, this is the most critical point.

"Tsui Hark has a lot of thoughts, I'm afraid you will have to work harder this time, dude."

Yuan Kui's nickname is Yuan Dan. The reason why he got this nickname is because when he was a dragon and tiger martial artist when he was a dragon and tiger martial artist, other people thought Yuan Kui's name was a bit of a mouthful, so they gave him Yuan Dan. It looks like it's over.

From then on, everyone who got acquainted with Yuan Kui called him by his nickname, and he even got the nickname of Director Egg.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, Director Xu is a director I admire very much. It is my honor to work with him. I will try my best to do my job well."

Yuan Kui is different from Wu Yusen. He is not the kind of director with a strong personal style. Like Cheng Xiaodong, he is the type who is easy to cooperate with others.

Lin Daoqiu arranged for Yuan Kui and Cheng Xiaodong to Tsui Hark, hoping that he would be in charge of this drama. After all, he was the producer, and Tsui Hark could not be responsible if he wanted to.

As for Tsui Hark's habit of changing scripts, it might be a nerve-wracking problem in normal times.

But this time it was Lin Daoqiu who wrote the script. Even if Tsui Hark had the guts to change Lin Daoqiu's script, this also limited Tsui Hark's performance on the other hand.

"I won't write the script too detailed this time, there is room for you to play, but..."

Lin Daoqiu paused and continued: "The overall direction of the plot still has to follow the script I wrote. It cannot deviate from it, nor can it change the relationship between them."

Although Lin Daoqiu didn't want to restrict Tsui Hark's thoughts too much, he couldn't let him change it randomly.

Originally, Tsui Hark was still a little worried, and after getting Lin Daoqiu's script, he could only shoot according to it, but now that he had the other party's words, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

After chatting with Tsui Hark and the others, Lin Daoqiu took a look at Wang Jing who had been waiting for a long time after they had left.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Lin Daoqiu looked at Wang Jing and asked with a smile.

"No, I really benefited a lot from listening to Mr. Lin discussing the plot with them just now."

Wang Jing quickly shook his head. Although he didn't participate in the discussion just now, he still got a lot of inspiration when he listened to it.

He even thought about whether he would also like to make a movie about gunfights.

But this also has to wait for Tsui Hark and the others to finish filming "The True Colors of Heroes" and see how it works then.

If the subject matter was not too difficult to shoot, Wang Jing would be more than happy to join in.

"I brought you here this time because there are two plays that need you to direct."

"Two plays?"

Originally, Wang Jing thought that Lin Daoqiu's calling him would probably allow him to participate in the filming of a play, maybe even just serve as a screenwriter.

But what I didn't expect was that Lin Daoqiu asked him to direct two plays as soon as he opened his mouth. To Wang Jing, this kind of thing was no different from a dream.

"And I will be responsible for writing the scripts of these two plays."

After hearing Lin Daoqiu's words, Wang Jing's eyes widened immediately. He couldn't believe that sitting in front of him was the Lin Daoqiu he knew.

You must know that Lin Daoqiu hadn't written a few scripts in the past year, especially in the past few years.

But he didn't expect that today he would come up with three scripts at once. Is this still the Lin Daoqiu he knew?

"The title of these two films is "God of Gamblers" and the other is called "The God of Gamblers". You can tell it's a gambling movie just by hearing the name."

Wang Jing nodded as she listened. It would definitely be no problem to ask him to make a gambling film. He also made his fortune from gambling films at the beginning, so this is a subject he is very good at.

"The gambling films I want you to make are completely different from the previous Shaw Brothers style or other styles of gambling films. This time, you must shoot according to the script, and you can't mess around at all."

Different from asking Tsui Hark, Lin Daoqiu asked Wang Jing very hard, that is, let him shoot according to the script he wrote.

Although Lin Daoqiu will give him a little space here, it is foreseeable that Lin Daoqiu will definitely not give Wang Jing more space than Tsui Hark.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, don't you worry about me? I can shoot whatever you want me to do, absolutely no problem."

Wang Jing and Tsui Hark have completely different ideas. What he pursues is that the films he makes can get high box office. This is the most critical issue.

In addition to the pursuit of the box office, Tsui Hark has his own persistence in the composition of the whole play and the meaning to be expressed.

It can be said that Tsui Hark and Wong Jing have very different ideas about movies.

This time "God of Gamblers" will be released after "The True Colors of Heroes", and "The God of Gamblers" will be released later. Once these three films are released, Lin Daoqiu believes that there will be many different trends in Xiangjiang.
