Chapter [-] remake of Huang Feihong

Zhang Yi does not have a film company in Hong Kong, and has recently focused his energy on film in the United States, and has less and less cooperation with Hong Kong filmmakers.Apart from cooperating with Hong Jinbao on "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", he has not cooperated with anyone or any film company.

Last time Daheng Zou wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of attending the premiere of Zhang Yi's "Jurassic Park" to talk to Zhang Yi about cooperation, but he didn't expect that after the movie ended, he didn't have a chance to speak, so the matter was over.And this matter is not a secret in the Hong Kong film circle.

Today's Zhang Yi is no longer the same as before.His business is getting bigger and bigger.Movies are just one of his industries.Moreover, he has not focused on Hong Kong.In other words, he no longer looks down on the Hong Kong film market.

It is true for Zhang Yi that he looks down on the Hong Kong film market.Today, he can turn clouds and rain in the world film market.He alone holds three of the top five films in the global box office list, and among them, the only film that topped the list and exceeded one billion dollars was produced by him.And it is far behind No.2.

The Hong Kong film market is too small to satisfy Zhang Yi's demand for box office.

Zhang Yi's footsteps are obviously too fast, and Hong Kong filmmakers have been unable to catch up with his footsteps.If you can't keep up with him, how can you get him to cooperate with you?

But I have to say that the rise of Zhang Yi has indeed greatly promoted the development of Hong Kong movies.In the past, films with an investment of tens of millions were rare, but now tens of millions are just an average investment, and many films cost 3000 to 5000 million at every turn.Even those who got [-] million, there are quite a few of them.

Of course, this is Hong Kong dollars, not U.S. dollars.Perhaps Zhang Yi is the only one who directly calculates the production cost in US dollars.Not to mention hundreds of millions of dollars, it is worth 5000 million dollars.It is estimated that no film company dares to be a sole proprietorship like Zhang Yi.

Xu Ke was not even sure whether Zhang Yi would attend the premiere of "Zhu Xian", but he didn't want to be invited by Zhang Yi, which surprised him a little.

Zhang Yi made an appointment to drink tea by himself, so naturally it couldn't be as simple as just drinking tea.And the only thing he can relate to himself is movies.

Movie!Zhang Yi must have made an appointment with himself to talk about movies.

That film has a relationship with Zhang Yi, which is the guarantee of box office.Maybe it's because Zhang Yi's current popularity is unmatched, and his achievements in all the films related to him over the years, it can be said that a brand effect has been ready-made.

"Sit down, we are all old acquaintances." Zhang Yi smiled and pointed to the seat opposite.Said to Xu Ke and the two of them.

"Thank you." Xu Ke said.There is still some restraint in the words.He is a filmmaker, but he still understands the ways of the world.What's more, he is not stunned, so he naturally knows what will happen if he accidentally offends Zhang Yi.

Of course, Xu Ke also knew that Zhang Yi was not the kind of narrow-minded person.But after a person's status is high.When facing him, it was inevitable that he had an estimate in his heart.After all, Zhang Yi controls the entire theater chain in Hong Kong, and he wants to ban a filmmaker.Still very easy.

"Your "Zhu Xian" will be released on October [-]?" Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"Hmm. I don't know Mr. Zhang?" Xu Ke nodded immediately and said.

"I will go." Zhang Yi said, "It will take some time to prepare for my new film, and it should take some time before I arrive in mainland China."

"Then thank you, Mr. Zhang. If you participate, the media will stop screaming." Xu Ke said excitedly after hearing this.

He has no relationship with Hong Jinbao and Zhang Yi.When "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" was released, Zhang Yi did not attend the premiere.It was said by the media that Zhang Yi was dissatisfied with the film.If it weren't for Zhang Yi's toughness later, how could it have such a high box office.

Xu Ke didn't think that Zhang Yi would stand up to "Zhu Xian", after all, he was not optimistic about this film from the beginning. The promotion of "Zhu Xian" is already in full swing, but Zhang Yi has not made any remarks about it.Of course, the main reason is that although Zhang Yi is often the focus of the media nowadays, he rarely appears in front of the media.

I couldn't find anyone, and I couldn't even interview him. Naturally, I couldn't ask Zhang Yi how to comment on this film adapted from his novel.

"I'm looking for Mr. Xu this time, mainly because I want to cooperate with Mr. Xu in a few movies." Zhang Yi said immediately after taking a sip of tea.

"How many movies?" Xu Ke looked at Zhang Yi in surprise.A few, it seems impossible.

"I plan to remake Huang Feihong!" Zhang Yi said lightly.

When Xu Ke heard it, he immediately understood that the remake of Huang Feihong was naturally a series of movies, and it is normal to make several movies.After all, there are many old versions of Huang Feihong.

Zhang Yi has done many remakes before, and they were all successful.For example, the remake of Li Hanxiang's "A Chinese Ghost Story" and Cheng Gang's "The True Colors of a Hero".Now, they plan to remake "Once Upon a Time".

I don't know what he plans to remake of "Once Upon a Time".

"A remake of Huang Feihong?" Xu Ke frowned and looked at Zhang Yi.

"Yes! However, since it is a remake, it needs to be filmed with new ideas. Therefore, I plan to film Huang Feihong when he was young, and elevate the chivalry of eliminating violence and peace to the level of worrying about the country and the people." Zhang Yi nodded, Immediately said.

"Can you tell me more about it?" Xu Ke became interested when he heard this.

"The story happened in 1975. The Qing government signed an unequal treaty with Lieqiang, allowing foreigners to demarcate borders and become kings in China. Foshan is no exception. Huang Feihong, one of the ten tigers in Guangdong, was the head of the Black Banner Army and the leader of the militia. People..." Zhang Yi then briefly narrated "Huang Feihong: Top Gun".

The film itself was produced by Xu Ke, and the film has changed the image of Guan Dexing as Huang Feihong's highly respected master, which is refreshing.The story retains many characters from the original version, but it focuses on the love between Huang Feihong and Thirteenth Aunt. The film breaks into the political conflicts between Chinese and Western cultures and China's sub-commands, placing the new and the old, the traditional and the modern. conflict.

This film has undoubtedly risen to a higher level.

"Mr. Zhang wants to show the epitome of that era through a person like Huang Feihong. Let the film have a new aesthetic meaning?"

After hearing Zhang Yi's story, Xu Ke's eyes lit up, and he asked with some uncertainty.

When Zhang Yi heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "It seems that I have found the right person."

Xu Keben is the screenwriter and director of this film.Of course, he is not the only screenwriter.

Let’s not talk about how successful the original film was at the box office, but it is enough to show that this film won four awards at the [-]th Hong Kong Film Awards: "Best Director, Best Editing, Best Music, and Best Martial Arts Instruction". the quality of the video.

In Zhang Yi's view, it would be a pity if there were no Hong Kong movies of the Huang Feihong series.Although, without his own promotion, this film may still appear, but Zhang Yi can't wait.

"I've accepted this series of movies. I don't know who is suitable to play Huang Feihong, Mr. Zhang?" Xu Ke said with a smile.After hearing Zhang Yi's story, he obviously became interested in this film.

Besides, he didn't think he could refuse Zhang Yi.

"What do you think of Li Lianjie?" Zhang Yi said with a smile.Zhang Yi was not surprised by Xu Ke's promise.

"Li Lianjie!" Xu Ke was a little surprised, then looked at Zhang Yi, and said, "Will he take this role?"

Li Lianjue doesn't need to be down and out in his previous life.Because of Zhang Yi's appearance, he didn't stay silent for two years, and because he played Zhang Yi's "Myth", he had a relationship with Zhang Yi. Not long ago, Zhang Yi recommended him to Hollywood to play the role of Zhang Yi in the kidnapping case. Yi prototype adaptation of the role.

Although this movie has not been released yet, everyone can see that once it is released, Li Lianjie's value will definitely increase.It is not a problem to go international with the support of Zhang Yi.He should be facing Hollywood now, playing Huang Feihong, I'm afraid it might be impossible.

"If you think he is suitable, he will take it." Zhang Yi said with a smile.

When Xu Ke heard it, he immediately reacted.When Zhang Yi came forward, Li Lianjie would naturally not refuse.However, he was a little puzzled. Didn't Zhang Yi intend to push him to the international market? Could it be that he lacked confidence in Li Lian's movie starring in Hollywood?

"Among Hong Kong actors, he is indeed the most suitable." Xu Ke thought for a while and then said. (To be continued..)
