The "007" series is a well-known Hollywood blockbuster and has always performed very well at the box office.

"The Iron King Kong Breaking the Black Demon Party" released in Hong Kong last year (translated as "007: Life and Death" in the mainland), won a box office of HK$2.2 million, ranking third in the annual box office rankings of non-Hong Kong films, second only to "The Adventures of the Sea God" and "The Godfather".

Moreover, the investment scale of "007" has always been quite large. 007 often travels around the world, including snow-capped mountains in Switzerland, Mount Fuji in Japan, beaches in Brazil, monuments in Athens, and small islands in the Caribbean...

This also makes every 007 movie invested millions of dollars, which can be regarded as a super masterpiece compared to the investment of hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong films.

Ye Jin never expected that he was as powerful as a man from Hong Kong. He was able to participate in the behind-the-scenes filming of "007". It was really admirable. I really wanted to meet this master.

"Mai Jiashang?" Ye Jin was stunned when he heard this name, and thought of another person with only one word difference.

The man's name is Mai Jia, who was once the boss of New Art City. He collaborated with Xu Rongjie in the "Best Partner" series, and achieved an amazing box office at that time.

Later, he worked with Zhou Xingchi in "Love Saint", and with Sammo Hung, "Slim Tiger and Fat Dragon", etc. He is a very outstanding filmmaker.

It would be a blessing to be able to cooperate with Mai Jia. But this person's name is [Mai Jia Shang], a word of difference may be a thousand miles away.

"Mr. Cai, please help me arrange to meet him." He said immediately.

He wanted to meet Mai Jiashang in person to see if he was worth it.

Cai Yongchang nodded, "Okay, I'll make arrangements."

"Mr. Ye, you will do both dramas. Just talk about whatever you need." Zou Wenhuai smiled again.

"Okay." Ye Jin nodded.

...

After returning to the hotel, Ye Jin began to formulate the creative team of the two crews.

There are eight main characters in "The Strange Tactics of Laughing Fist". One is the protagonist Chen Xinglong. If you don't need to consider this, it must be Ye Jin himself.

There are also Chen Xinglong's grandfather Chen Pengfei, Chen Pengfei's friend Eight-legged Qilin, the Qing court's lackey Ren Tianhua, the Xingyimen Martial Arts Hall, and three gangsters who regard Chen Xinglong as their elder brother.

The remaining characters either have little role or do not require too high acting skills, so at that time, they can also be transferred from the Hong family's martial artist or from Jiahe.

"Grandfather Chen Pengfei, let's star in Tian Jun." Ye Jin thought about it. In the original movie, Chen Pengfei was starring Tian Jun.

Tian Jun was originally a Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist of Xiao's family, but later he was promoted to an actor because of his handsome appearance. He joined Jiahe in 1971 and participated in the filming of "Brother Tangshan", which became famous in one shot. He then filmed "The Knife of the Knife", "The Jingwumen", "The Game of Death", etc.

After Bruce Lee's death, Tian Jun began to play the leading role, filming "Dragon and Tiger King", "Seaman No. 7", "Iron Wa", "Cold-faced Tiger", "Southern Pai Shaolin Fist", etc.

Although he has worked very hard, he has always lacked box office appeal. The box office of several movies he starred in is very average, so his current status is a bit awkward.

...

"Eight-legged Qilin, it would be best if Yuan Xiaowei could play it, but he may not have time." Ye Jin thought about it again.

After Yuan Xiaowei became famous in the two films "Snake-shaped Hands" and "Drunk Fist", he is now a popular celebrity in the film industry. He was invited by the film company to film, and has rejuvenated his second spring in his career. Even Ye Jin wanted to find him to film, so he had to wait for him.

"Why would you like to invite Gu Feng. His acting skills are also good, and his skills are also good." Ye Jin thought.

Gu Feng is a well-known actor with Xiao’s personality. He has worked in Xiao for many years and has appeared in countless movies, but most of them are mainly villains.

When Wu Siyuan was filming "The Snake-shaped Hand", he considered Gu Feng to star in it, but at that time, Xiao's boss refused to let him go, which made Gu Feng miss the opportunity to become famous and regret it.

If he is invited this time, I believe he will not refuse again.

"Who should play the role of the Qing Dynasty's lackey Ren Tianhua?" Ye Jin thought about it again.

In the original version of "The Strange Tactics of Laughing Fist", Ren Tianhua, the lackey of the Qing Dynasty, was starred by Ren Shiguan. He is a very good actor, with great skills and domineering appearance, which is very suitable for playing such a villain.

But to be honest, he has already filmed two movies with Ye Jin, "The Snake-shaped Hand" and "Drunk Fist", and both of which he plays the villain. If he invites him again in "The Strange Tactics of Laughing Fist", it would be too similar.

When viewers watch movies, they still like to watch something new, so Ren Shiguan has to give up. After Ren Shiguan abandoned it, Ye Jin needed to find another person with great skills and vicious appearance to be the villain.

After thinking about it, he suddenly thought of someone, that is Yuan Xinyi, who is in the Yuan family class. He has worked with Ye Jin on "Snake-shaped Hand", "Drunk Fist", etc., and is a very good actor.

The reason Ye Jin chose him was because he had seen his performance in the movie "The Brave Is Not Fearful". The image of the killer who painted a face and chased Yuan Biao was quite terrifying.

...

"Li Kun will play the role of the master of Xingyimen Martial Arts Hall." Ye Jin thought about it again.

In the original "Laughter Fist Strategy", he played this role.

Li Kun is a well-known actor of the Xiao family and an old actor. He has appeared in many movies and created many outstanding roles.

The most classic roles are Liu Yong in the series of movies such as "Qianlong Goes to the South of the Yangtze River", "Qianlong Goes to Yangzhou", "Qianlong and the Three Girls", and "Qianlong Emperor and Ministers Fight Wisdoms".

"As for the three rogues, Chen Long, Zhong Fa and Qian Yuesheng will be played." Ye Jin thought about it again.

Chen Long and his younger brother Chen Huiyi are both members of the Hong family class, but Chen Long is more active in front of the curtain because of his unique appearance. Chen Huiyi looks average and is not outstanding as an actor, so he often lives in seclusion behind the scenes as a martial arts leader.

Chen Long has appeared in countless movies, including Fu Bo in "Ghost Hunt and Family Fun", belated master in "Six Fingered Piano Demon", Taoist priest in "The Corpse Family" and so on.

Zhong Fa doesn’t need to introduce it too much. He is a member of the Hong family. Almost all the Hong family’s plays have appeared, but because of their limited image, they basically play supporting roles. Classic characters such as Taoist Qianhe in "Uncle Zombie", Xu Zhenren in "Ghost Fighting Ghosts", etc.

Qian Yuesheng is also a member of the Hong family class. He looks weird and has appeared in countless movies, but he is basically supporting roles. There are not many characters who leave a deep impression on people. For example, the old ghost in "Human Ghosts and Gods" and Taoist Qian in "Zombie Resurrection", they have already considered more scenes.

...

After the list of seven people was drafted, Ye Jin pondered it many times and finally settled it down.

After the main actors were decided, Ye Jin had to consider [Three Masters and One Road] again, that is, lighting artists, photographers, makeup artists and props.

These four are the most important behind-the-scenes members. After selecting them, the crew of "Laughter Fist" will be officially formed.
