Jia Leilei gave Wu Yuchen a brief introduction to their work on "The Dance of Martial Arts". Seeing Xiao Wu in front of him who seemed very happy, he smiled secretly in his heart. The charm of martial arts for young people is really great.

Then he took out a booklet bound on A4 paper from the side and handed it to Wu Yuchen:

"Xiao Wu, first take a look at how many of the above movies you have seen."

Wu Yuchen took the booklet and looked at it carefully, "Shaolin Temple", "Burning Red Lotus Temple", "One-Armed Sword", "Dragon Gate Inn"...

There are many movies listed on each piece of paper, with the year written on the back, and there is no order in which they are arranged. But without exception, they are all martial arts movies. In such a thin book, there must be at least seven or eight hundred movies. .

Wu Yuchen was not in a hurry, and just turned over page after page. After waiting for a while, he evaluated it in his mind and replied:

"Teacher Jia, I estimate that I have seen 40% to 50% of it."

He did watch a lot of martial arts movies following the "Dance of Martial Arts" documentary in his previous life, but he didn't cover all the 700 or 800 movies mentioned above. Some of them he had never even heard of.

Jia Leilei was drinking water from a white enamel teacup. After hearing this, he raised his eyebrows, put the lid on the teacup and put it down: "Are you sure?"

The other people sitting in the room also looked at Wu Yuchen, and some of them couldn't help but frown, feeling that this young man who had just arrived was a bit of a braggart.

The movies listed above are martial arts movies that are somewhat famous or influential since the early 1920s.

As an ordinary movie lover, I can say that having watched one of the above movies is a good achievement, and there are some old movies that you may not have access to if you want to watch them.

Some of these people here have been dealing with movies all their lives. Before participating in the production of this documentary, they only watched 30% of the above at most, but this guy immediately said 40% to 50% when he opened his mouth. Isn’t this bragging?

Wu Yuchen nodded to Jia Leilei: "Absolutely."

Jia Leilei chuckled. He felt that Xiao Wu was bragging, but he was not annoyed and said:

"Since you have watched so many, you must have some experience in martial arts movies. Then tell me how much you know about Huang Feihong in the martial arts movies. Let's talk casually."

Several elderly consultants couldn't help but smile when they heard this question. This little Jia was testing the boy's depth.

In recent years, with Jet Li's Once Upon a Time becoming popular, who among those who love watching martial arts doesn't know about Once Upon a Time?

Basically, any martial arts fan can say something to Huang Feihong in the movie.

But if this Xiao Wu can really only name those Once Upon a Time movies by Jet Li and Xu Ke, then he is basically a bragging idiot.

Although they don't criticize much, they can still tell how good this person is. The most important thing is that bragging means that he is not practical in his work. If it really doesn't work, go to Hou Keming and find another one.

Wu Yuchen couldn't help but grin after hearing this question. This question was really the right one. In the documentary "Dance of Martial Arts" in his previous life, there was a separate explanation and analysis of Huang Feihong, an important figure in martial arts movies.

Now that he has arrived at the production team of "The Dance of Wu", Wu Yuchen is also interested. He can't help but imitate the movie with his hands clasped in fists and bowed to the surroundings in a decent manner:

"Teachers, I have made a fool of myself. If there is anything wrong in what I said, please correct me."

After finishing speaking, Wu Yuchen cleared his throat and said loudly:

"As of the end of 1994, the most recent Once Upon a Time movie should be "Once Upon a Time in the City: Dragon City" directed by Xu Ke, starring Zhao Wenzhuo. As far as I know, the earliest one should be directed by Hong Kong Island in 1949 Hu Peng filmed "Once Upon a Time, Part 1: The Whip Wind Extinguishes the Candle" and "Once Upon a Time, Part 2: The Burning of Bawangzhuang". The first and second episodes are counted together as one film.

During this period, there were more than a hundred movies with Huang Feihong as the protagonist. It should be said that Huang Feihong is the history of Chinese movies. Oh no, it should be said to be the best in the history of world movies! "

Just hearing this, Jia Leilei was alerted. It seems that this Xiao Wu really has something, which ordinary people can't understand.

Others also became somewhat interested and raised their brows to see what else he could say next.

Wu Yuchen then continued:

“From my personal understanding, I divide Once Upon a Time in the movie into three generations.

The image of the first generation Huang Feihong - a traditional hero.

The shapers of this first generation of Huang Feihong were mainly director Hu Peng and actor Guan Dexing. From 1949 to the 1960s, they jointly created 59 Huang Feihong movies, which can be said to have shaped the glory of Huang Feihong at that time. Mr. Guan Dexing, who was already skilled in martial arts, was also known as Huang Feihong in his lifetime.

The image of Huang Feihong in the movie at this stage is also the traditional heroic image of the drama. He fights against injustice, suppresses evil and promotes good, and pays attention to the traditional Confucian moral spirit of etiquette, righteousness, tolerance, forgiveness and harmony. It is especially in line with Hong Kong Island's prayer for stability and maintenance during the turbulent years at that time. He is known as a "classicist" hero due to his peaceful folk customs. "

Then Wu Yuchen raised his right hand and raised two fingers:

"The second generation of Huang Feihong - a funny hero.

After the mid-1960s, Hong Kong Island already had a certain degree of economic strength, people's livelihood was basically stable, and citizens had demands for interesting movies. Against this background, funny kung fu films represented by Yuan Heping and Cheng Long emerged, such as "Drunken Master" 1 and 2.

During this period, Huang Feihong began to ignore the feudal system, challenge tradition, no longer blindly tolerate and forgive, and he had more humor, and even his clothes began to become more modern, and he often appeared with a comedy face, so I called him He is a funny hero. "

After Wu Yuchen finished speaking, he paused. When he saw everyone around him listening attentively or smiling, he knew that he had passed the test.

He smiled slightly, then turned slightly sideways and said:

"The third generation of Huang Feihong is the image we are most familiar with now. He has great righteousness for his family and country and is invincible for his benevolence!

The representative image that I don’t need to introduce is Li Lianjie.

Since the 1980s, cultural exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait have been increasing day by day. Against the background of the countdown to the imminent return of Hong Kong Island, Huang Feihong's film has added cultural themes of resisting foreign aggression and resisting the humiliation of foreign powers to the traditional moral themes, turning a China's chivalrous image has been further enhanced, with more cultural and spiritual connotations, and has brought greater influence and thinking to society.

Jet Li's Once Upon a Time has typical postmodern compatibilist cultural characteristics: it combines martial arts, romance, and comedy, and combines power and humor with entertainment. At the same time, his master's demeanor far exceeds that of the second generation, and he is constantly striving for self-improvement. , being compatible and caring about the world, thus creating a new world for Huang Feihong movies!

Although the images of the three generations of Huang Feihong are different and transformed, they all reflect the folk customs and citizen mentality of Hong Kong Island society at that time. Huang Feihong has always upheld the chivalrous spirit and placed the people's expectations and pursuit of justice.

It can be said that Huang Feihong has become a classic hero image that Chinese martial arts movies cannot avoid! "

After Wu Yuchen finished speaking, he closed his mouth, and the whole hall became quiet, and you could hear a needle drop.
