Chapter [-] Filmmaking Special

Because of Zhang Yi's appearance, Li Lianjie's star path was much smoother than in his previous life.At least, because he starred in "Mythology" directed by Zhang Yi, which has attracted great attention internationally, his starlight is even more dazzling than in his previous life.

However, perhaps due to the inertia of history, he still stumbled in "Chinese Heroes", which he directed and acted on his own.Although, because of Zhang Yi's antiquity, this film has set back.But some things still cannot be changed.

The reason for the difference is that at this time, because his reputation is much greater than that of the original version, and his box office appeal is much stronger than before. In terms of box office, he has made a big breakthrough, but he just escaped the fate of not losing money.

Among the Chinese action actors, Li Lianjie is more suitable to play his role in terms of action style and temperament.

Cheng Long's personal style is too strong, Hung Kam Po's body is too fat, Yuen Biao lacks handsomeness, and Yen Zidan is too vigorous at this time, lacking Zhang Yi's calmness, and it is difficult to act.

As for the others, Zhang Yi didn't have to think about it.Either they are too old, or they are too young to make their debut.

After much deliberation, only Li Lianjie was the most suitable.

This future international kung fu superstar, Kung Fu Emperor, has not been silent for a few years because of Zhang Yi's appearance, and because of this, he has gone international ahead of schedule. I don't know how much his achievements have improved.

Zhang Yi looked at Li Lianjie, who was a little frustrated, and saw that he was still a little restrained, then smiled and said: "Master Wu Bin and the Sun family are friends, and you and I have a relationship, there is no need to be so restrained, just be casual." good."

Li Lianjie smiled shyly. He was older than Zhang Yi and had a good reputation at this time, but he still couldn't let go of Zhang Yi.Perhaps, in the Hong Kong film and television industry, there are not two people who can let go in front of Zhang Yi.

This is the reason for the status strength.It has nothing to do with age.

"Is there any work arrangement recently?" Zhang Yi asked.

Li Lianjie shook his head and looked at Zhang Yi expectantly.

"You should have heard of the hijacking case I encountered in the United States last time?" Zhang Yi looked at Li Lianjie and said.

The hijacking case caused a sensation in the whole world, and Li Lianjie had certainly heard of it.He nodded, and looked at Zhang Yi with some doubts, not understanding why he suddenly asked this.

"There is a movie that is going to be changed with that hijacking case, and the investment and production company is my Jiying Film Company in the United States. But I don't have time to act in this movie, so I ask you, are you interested?" Zhang Yi smiled and asked.

Li Lianjie looked at Zhang Yi in shock.I didn't know how to answer for a while.

"You don't have to rush to answer. This is an opportunity, but it also faces a great test. You can go back and discuss it with someone, and just reply to me in a few days." Zhang Yi said immediately.

It is indeed an opportunity to star in this movie.After all, the film is based on a world-shattering event, so it will naturally attract attention.Moreover, at that time, there will be many friendly guest appearances by Hollywood big names, Schwarzenegger, the most popular big-name co-star in Hollywood today.And from the perspective of the role and the degree of excellence, it is much stronger.

Starring in such a movie naturally attracted the attention of the world.

Just, starring in this movie.It is undoubtedly a great test.After all, the character he played was changed from Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi is now so popular and has as many fans that no one can match.If the performance satisfies his fans.Needless to say, not to mention the love and support of all Zhang Yi's fans, but Zhang Yi's popularity will definitely be tainted.Usher in the peak of your career.

But if Zhang Yi's fans can't be satisfied, it will definitely cause a lot of scolding.

Opportunities come with challenges!

This is a choice like a gamble.Not every actor has the courage to take on the role of Zhang Yi who has changed his original form.

Moreover, if Zhang Yi cannot be satisfied with the performance, it will undoubtedly offend Zhang Yi.Offending Zhang Yi, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get along in the film and television industry in Hong Kong.Even if Zhang Yi doesn't deliberately retaliate, no one will stop others from taking the opportunity to trip him up.

Li Lianjue went back and struggled, but Zhang Yi believed that he could not resist this temptation, nor was he afraid of this test.

"Boss, who do you want to play the role of my original adaptation?" Li Xiao asked out of curiosity.

Zhang Yi smiled, looked at Li Xiao, and asked, "Who do you think is more suitable to play? You don't want to be asked to act."

"I don't know how to act, it's too complicated. It's better to think about boxing than to spend energy on tone." Li Xiao said, smiled, looked at Zhang Yi, and said, "As for who is more suitable to play, I don't know. Movies, how do you know who is suitable. Asking, I am just a little curious."

"Your body type, I'm afraid you can't find it in the film and television industry. Besides, this person must have a kung fu foundation." Zhang Yi thought for a while, and then said, "What do you think of Billy Zhou?"

"Billy Zhou, him? He is quite tall in the film and television industry. But compared to me, he is still a lot worse. Moreover, he is not as handsome as me. However, it is still possible to play a character who has changed my original shape." Li Xiao said lightly.

When Zhang Yi heard this, he smiled.Zhou Billy has a foundation in kung fu, and there is no problem with his movements.Moreover, he played the role of a master villain in "Boxer", and after "Boxer" is released around the world, he will definitely be familiar with him.What's more, the character was adapted from Li Xiao's original form, so it is impossible to find someone who looks similar to Li Xiao to play it!

"Boss, who is going to be the action director for this movie? Mr. Barry Diller mentioned this." Lin Xiao asked Zhang Yi after hearing this.

"The action director will naturally invite someone." Zhang Yi smiled, but there were two candidates in his mind.And those two people have a cooperation with themselves.

Yuan Heping and Yuan Kui.

In the next few days, Zhang Yi summoned the main creators of "Boxer" to shoot and produce a movie special.And Shao Daheng, who has watched this special, has to admire Zhang Yi's imagination on the promotional film, which is like a powerful and unconstrained style.

Although Zhang Yi seldom does publicity for his films, every time the publicity planning is extremely successful.

"Don't you just ask me to watch TV?" Zou Daheng looked at his old partner He Guanchang with some puzzlement.

He Guanchang smiled, and said: "I heard that Zhang Yi has created a special movie, so I invite you to watch it together. At the beginning, Zhang Yi made it into the trailer, but now it has become an indispensable part of movie promotion. And this is not only imitated by filmmakers all over the world, but also by Hollywood movies."

"Movie special? Well, I've heard of it too." Zou Daheng nodded and said.He knew that Zhang Yi made such a thing, but he didn't know it would be played at this time.

Apart from trailers, Zhang Yi's publicity methods have been imitated by other film companies in many ways, among which Golden Harvest is undoubtedly the best.

Movie specials, this kind of new stuff, besides Zou Daheng and He Guanchang who are extremely curious, it is estimated that many filmmakers are also the same.

"I heard that TVB broadcast Zhang Yi's movie special without charging any advertising fee." Zou Daheng said again.

"I'm afraid this kind of treatment is only available in Zhang Yi's movies. However, if the publicity effect is good, it doesn't matter if you spend a little money." He Guanchang said immediately.

As soon as He Guanchang's voice fell, the special episode of "Boxer" broadcast on the TV station had already begun.

The special begins, first the trailer of the whole movie.This trailer is longer than the previous version, but longer than the final version, with a segment of more than a minute, and it also shows some exciting things that have never appeared before.

When this trailer ended, the cutting room where Zhang Yi was located appeared on the screen, and a line of subtitles appeared beside him: "Boxer" producer, director, producer, screenwriter, action director.

"This movie is my other attempt at kung fu movies. It is different from the traditional kung fu movies of "Ip Man" and also from the comedy kung fu movies that are common today. The purpose of making such a movie is to make the martial arts The spiritual connotation and the actual combat style show everyone..." (to be continued...)
