231 [Preview]
Xia Tian smiled happily too.
In order to make Japanese guests like it, he specially instructed Xu Guanwen to try to cut more action scenes when editing, rather than cut scenes with large lines.
Because action scenes are universally used in the world, just like Charlie Chaplin's silent film, people from different countries will also be able to laugh from ear to ear when they watch them.
However, the literary operas with long lines are different. Different languages, cultures, and customs are difficult to resonate with the audience. This is also why Hong Kong people like Huang Zihua, while northerners like Guo Degang.
"Thank you Mr. Kakugawa for your praise." Xia Tian smiled, "Let's watch the next drama."
"Okay." Haruki Kakugawa nodded.
Liu Weihong then played the five-minute exciting trailer for "The King of Flowers".
Hu Huizhong previously collaborated on "The Legend of Lucky Stars" by Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao and Yuan Biao. This movie recently achieved extremely high box office results when it was released in Japan, so Hu Huizhong also became famous in Japan.
Kadokawa Haruki and others naturally had an impression of her.
Now when she saw her fighting on the screen, her movements were neat and heroic, she couldn't help but lit up.
Due to the unremitting efforts of Hong Kong filmmakers such as Bruce Lee, Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, and Yuan Biao, Hong Kong action movies are very popular in Japan.
In addition, Hu Huizhong is so beautiful and his actions are so wonderful, and there are also many exciting plots such as gunfights, explosions, and car chases, which made Kakugawa Haruki and others nodded frequently.
"Xia Sang, this movie is also very good. Especially Miss Hu, her performance is really impressive." Haruki Kakugawa smiled again.
"Thank you Mr. Kakugawa for your praise." Xia Tian smiled, "Let's watch the next drama."
"Okay." Haruki Kakugawa nodded.
Liu Weihong then put the copy of "The True Color of Heroes" into the projector.
Brother Ma went to Fenglin Pavilion alone; Song Zihao sat by the beach and smoked lonely; Zhang Guorong searched for evidence alone; in the end, the three of them fought on the beach with their elder brother.
The five-minute trailer shows that there is the loneliness of heroes, the loyalty of men, the rebellion of brothers, and the explosion of gunfights... Almost all the themes of "The True Color of Heroes" are revealed.
Kadokawa Haruki and his colleagues looked at each other and were all impressed by the movie.
"Xiasan, your drama is really good." Kakugawa Haruki said, "Although I haven't been able to watch the entire drama, I already think it's a very good drama."
"Thank you Mr. Kakugawa for the praise." Xia Tian smiled, "To be honest, I am very optimistic about this drama myself and think it will definitely be very popular."
"Mr. Kakugawa, the screenwriters of the three dramas you just watched are all our boss, Mr. Xia." Liu Weihong also said with a slight interest.
"Really?! Xia Sang is really amazing." Haruki Kakugawa couldn't help but praise him when he heard this.
"Thank you for the compliment." Xia Tian smiled.
"Mr. Kakugawa, the remaining two movies are written, directed and acted by our boss Mr. Xia Tian. Please continue to enjoy them." Liu Weihong said again.
"Nani?!" When Kakugawa Haruki heard this, he looked at Xia Tian in surprise and couldn't speak.
I really didn't expect that he was young but had such talent, which really shocked him.
"It's true. Our boss is a well-known talent in Hong Kong. Even Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao and Yuan Biao use his scripts and like to work with him very much." Liu Weihong said with a smile again.
"Really?!Wow!!" Hearing Liu Weihong say this, the Japanese guests present started to make a noise.
Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, and Yuan Biao are the most popular foreign stars in Japan, and are even more popular than Japanese local movie stars. Even they have to use summer scripts, which shows that he is really amazing.
"The "Great Stars" by Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao and Yuan Biao was written by our boss, and the scripts they are still filming are also written by our boss." Liu Weihong proudly showed off.
“It’s really not easy!”
"Are simply a genius!"
"If this is the case, it would be amazing."
Several Japanese people exclaimed.
"Of course it's true." Liu Weihong smiled, "If you don't believe it, let our boss invite them and let them confirm to you in person..."
"Hmm." Xia Tian immediately coughed, "Stop talking nonsense, let's play "Zombie Family"." He said with a straight face.
This time, I cooperated with Kakugawa Film to open up the Japanese market and was considered a competitive relationship with Jiahe. You should know that Hong Kong films in the Japanese market have always been exclusively controlled by Jiahe. In addition to the movies of Cheng Long, Yuan Biao and Hong Jingbao, Jiahe also exports a large number of other movies to Japan every year, and makes a lot of money from it.
If Xia Film and Television wants to come in and get a share of the pie today, it will naturally make Jiahe unhappy. In this case, how can we find Hong Jingbao, Cheng Long and Yuanbiao to help me support the scene?
"Yes, boss." Liu Weihong saw that the boss was unhappy and knew that he had flattered the horse's legs. He didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, so he quickly put a copy of "Zombie Family".
The reason why "Zombie Family" was first played in summer is mainly because this drama took place in modern times and is more convenient for Japanese customers to understand. "Mr. Zombie" was from the Republic of China period and is far away from now. In that era, even Hong Kong people might not understand it, let alone the Japanese.
"Zombie Family" is released soon. This film has been re-equipped in Japanese in summer. Although it has cost some money, it is also a necessary investment.
Sure enough, when Kakugawa Haruki and others heard the familiar Japanese, they all smiled and nodded, thinking that Xia Tian was still very sincere in cooperation.
Everyone enjoys this movie together.
At the beginning, several Japanese guests were not very interested. Because monsters like zombies do not exist in Japan. However, zombies know more. If they don’t understand them, they naturally don’t have much sense of substitution.
However, seeing the little zombie showing superpowers, Haruki Kakugawa and others couldn't help but lit up. When the male zombie and the female zombie were in a big fuss in the city, these Japanese people began to nod their heads frequently and felt it was interesting.
"Xia Sang, the back of this film is very scented with our Japanese special films, and this little zombie is indeed very cute." Haruki Kakugawa said with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Kakugawa." Xia Tian smiled, "When I directed this drama, I did borrow some Japanese special films. Your vision is really good, and you can actually see it."
"I'm going to tell you, I'm actually a director myself." Haruki Kakugawa said with a smug smile.
"So that's it." Xia Tian smiled, "Mr. Kakugawa really surprised me."
"It's not as surprising as Mr. Xia. I didn't expect Mr. Xia to be so good at kung fu. I wonder if he can beat the Dragon?" Kadokawa Haruki asked curiously.
Xia Tian smiled.
He learned martial arts since elementary school, and Cheng Long had an opera since elementary school. Both of them were from practicing boy skills and had deep attainments. In terms of level of kung fu, it was really hard to say who was better. Anyway, the two of them had never fought, so they couldn't make a fight at all.
"Mr. Kakugawa, Cheng Long and I are both actors, and we are not fighters on the ring. It is meaningless to talk about winning or losing." Xia Tian smiled.
"So that's the case." Haruki Kakugawa nodded, looking a little disappointed.
Xia Tian smiled and raised his hand to look at his watch, "Mr. Kakugawa, it's already five o'clock in the afternoon, and there is still a movie that has not been finished. Do you see if we go to have a meal first and then come back to watch it?"
"No, it's the same thing to watch the video first and then go to have a meal." Haruki Kakukawa shook his head and refused.
Xia Tian blinked, "Okay, let's put "Mr. Zombie."
Although the drama "Mr. Zombie" is a great film, it is very popular not only in Hong Kong, Taiwan, mainland China, and Southeast Asia, but it is still a bit difficult for the Japanese to accept it.
But when the eldest daughter of the Ren family played by Wang Qixian came out, Xia Tian noticed that the eyes of these Japanese people lit up.
"Damn!" He couldn't help but curse in his heart.
In fact, Wang Shixian also appeared in "The Zombie Family". However, there are too few scenes. To be honest, they are not as tall as the female zombie, so they did not leave a deep impression on the Japanese guests.
But this movie "Mr. Zombie" is different. Wang Xiaoxian has a high role in it and is considered a real female star. Moreover, she is really beautiful and charming, which immediately attracted the attention of these Japanese people.
"I heard that Xiaoxian is very popular in Japan, and South Korea is praised by the Japanese media as the best beauty in Asia. Today, it seems that her charm is indeed extraordinary." Xia Tian thought proudly, "But such a beautiful woman is now my woman, so you can envy and hate her."
The one and a half hours of "Mr. Zombies" will be played soon.
Although I made this movie myself and have watched it many times, I still think that Xia Tian still thinks this movie is wonderful.
After watching Haruki Kakugawa and others, they also felt satisfied. Because this movie was played a lot and it was very exciting. At the same time, there were taboo elements such as human-ghost love, which made them feel very fresh and interesting.
"Mr. Kakugawa, what do you think of this drama?" Xia Tian asked with a smile again.
"Well, this drama is also very good." Haruki Kakugawa nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Xiasang, if all your movies are of this level, then our cooperation is worth it."
"Don't worry, Mr. Kakugawa, my movies have always been very good." Xia Tian said confidently, "I can assure you this."
"Very good." Haruki Kakugawa nodded and discussed with his subordinates, "Xia Sang, we can discuss cooperation."
"Okay, but it's getting late now, let's have a meal and talk, what?" Xia Tian suggested with a smile again.
Chapter completed!
