Chapter 207 Brainless

"Master Yuan!"

"Archie!"

At the gate of Beijing Film Studio, Chen Qi personally welcomed the Yuan brothers, and Yuan Heping hugged them with a smile. They were all familiar with each other and there was no need to talk nonsense.

"Have you received "The Scary Man"?"

"received!"

"Then why haven't my royalties been sent yet?"

"Wow, I gave you money as soon as possible, 30,000 Hong Kong dollars! Don't falsely accuse a good person. As expected, everything you wrote has a head start. "People Are Scary" is good. We are confident that it can surpass "Ghosts Fighting Ghosts"."

"As long as you're satisfied, it's really hard to ask for help. Please give me one script at a time."

"Haha, if you write more for me, I'll be your martial artist for free!"

A few people walked inside, and Yuen Heping talked about the current situation of the Hong Kong film industry.

"Tai Chi" finally grossed 19 million Hong Kong dollars, beating Xu Guanwen's "Modern Bodyguard" and still ranked first in the year. New Art City's "Happy Fairy Nest" ranked third with 5.1 million.

The fourth is very interesting, called "Thousand Kings Fight Thousand Tyrants", with 5.08 million, ranking fourth. This film was written and directed by Wang Jing. It is also from this year that Wang Jing officially stepped onto the stage of the Hong Kong film industry.

"In August, New Arts City has a movie called "Girls," and Shaw Brothers has a movie called "Gu," and there is also a cartoon called "Old Master," but none of them can beat it."

"Jiahe didn't make any move?"

"Jiahe bet on "Modern Bodyguard", but you killed it, so this year is a waste. Jackie Chan's "Cannonball Speed" hit the market again, and it got a bad reputation. He decided to return to Hong Kong to develop, and next year it will be another fight between dragons and tigers."

Yuan Heping was worried about his company, but Chen Qi thought more.

In the next few years, Hong Kong was dominated by the "Best Partner" series and the "Five Lucky Stars" series. At this stage, it was popular to work together to keep warm. Jackie Chan couldn't do it alone, and he had to co-star with Sammo Hung.

New Art City is at its peak, forcing Jiahe and Shaw Brothers to join forces to fight, but they can't even fight...

If you add yourself to disrupt the situation, it will be called a fight between dragons and tigers.

Several people went to the studio, and they were all acquaintances. They met and greeted each other, and introduced new people.

Zhen Zidan had already been eager to try it out. She couldn't wait to run over and said, "Master Yuan, it's me. My mother should have written to you. I also have a part in the performance!"

"Danny, I know you're here to act. It's such a fate!"

Li Lianjie was puzzled and asked: "Master Yuan, do you know him?"

"My sister is his mother's apprentice!"

Yuan Heping explained, and everyone suddenly realized that Zhen Zidan later relied on this relationship to worship Yuan Heping as his master.

After saying hello, Chen Qi led the Yuan brothers to his office. The small room was still very pitiful. The administrative staff had gone out to run relationships, and the finance staff was sitting alone in it.

"Archie, have you started a company?"

Yuan Heping was very surprised.

"The National Trust has opened a small company for me. I am the vice president, I am responsible for the specific business. The films we make can be distributed overseas and co-produced with Hong Kong."

In tune?

Before Yuan Heping could speak, Chen Qi added with a smile: "Only leftists can cooperate!"

"Oh, I understand, the rules can't be broken."

Yuan Heping nodded and looked at Yuan Xiangren, quite surprised. The rules can't be broken, but you can be sneaky. Chen Qi has an amazing head. If he goes to Hong Kong, he must get close to him.

They are not leftists. They joined the Free Federation for the sake of the Taiwan market. As long as they can make money, their stance is very smooth.

Then, several people studied the fighting scenes of "Tai Chi 2".

The martial arts style remains consistent with the first part, fast and sharp, with a bang-bang-bang feeling.

The scene has been greatly improved, and the number of participants has increased. Among them, the boxer fighting scene has to be combined with pretending to be gods and ghosts. After drinking the talisman water, the whole body trembles, asking Sun Wukong to get on top, and then being blasted by Yang Yu...

There are two key scenes, one is a battle of a hundred people.

The red light, the Qing government, foreigners, fishermen in troubled waters, Yang Yuqian and others are all involved. This scene will be shot at the leftist studio in Hong Kong.

The other scene is Yang Yuqian's discussion of Nalan Yuan.

"Cloth stick! You must use a cloth stick!"

Chen Qi's eyebrows were dancing and he said: "Use a piece of cloth, twist it into a stick, dip it in water, it can be soft or hard, move forward or backward, it is so powerful that you can punch a hole in the wall with one blow!"

"What's the strategy?"

"Nine-section whip + long whip + stick method!"

"So mixed?"

Yuan Heping frowned and did not respond. Instead, he lowered his head slightly and kept his eyes blank, as if simulating whether it was feasible or not in his mind. Then he practiced a few moves with Yuan Xiangren and said after a while: "It can be done!"

"It's so nice, how about saying that I like to cooperate with you!"

Chen Qi slammed the table.

He led the crew almost from scratch, with no experience, and was really tired. That's why he was so happy to meet such a smart person like Li Jianqun, not to mention Yuan Heping. When asked, he complied with his requests, and his professionalism was outstanding.

Any industry likes experienced people.

If you slap a young woman on the butt, she will know how to turn over. If you slap a young girl on the butt, she will only ask you, "Why spank me?"

It feels different!

…………

The preparation for "Tai Chi 2" is largely similar to the first one.

Li Wenhua also has experience and can share a lot of work. Chen Qi can relax a little. In fact, he wants to try to follow only one section, and then hand over the literary drama to Li Wenhua and the martial arts drama to Yuan Heping to see if he can handle it.

For several newcomers, he still taught them step by step.

He Qing and Tao Huimin didn't have many scenes, but they were outstanding. Chen Qi gave them another quick training session on "star acting", setting up a few expressions and movements for them to become familiar with.

They have opera skills and are more comfortable with it.

Zhen Zidan was very strenuous.

Nalan Yuanshu is the villain and one of the core characters, so he can’t be careless.

He doesn't speak Mandarin well and has difficulty communicating. More importantly, he is a guy with a completely low emotional intelligence.

"Nalan Yuanshu was a young military general in the Qing government. He was highly skilled in martial arts and had a good relationship with Yang Yuqian. At first, they both had the same goal, which was to practice martial arts to strengthen themselves and then strengthen the country. However, they had differences due to the Tan Sitong incident, and the conflicts became more and more serious. big."

On this day, Chen Qi was giving a lecture in the studio.

Zhen Zidan sat down with everyone, with his head raised, and he listened very seriously, but his posture was very awkward. Chen Qi talked about it and asked, "Do you understand the above?"

"Understand!"

"This person is ruthless and unscrupulous in his actions. You must show this characteristic. You have to practice an expression, which is to look at people sideways..."

Chen Qi gave a demonstration.

Zhen Zidan frowned, raised his hand and said, "I want to ask, why do you do this?"

"Looking at people sideways, showing an arrogant and vicious attitude!

The makeup on your face will be whiter, and the corners of your eyes will be raised upward. If I give you more close-ups from the side, you will look like Nalan Yuanshu."

"I still have doubts. I don't think your method will be very effective..."

"..."

The huge studio fell silent instantly. Everyone, including Li Lianlian, stared at him with wide eyes, "Brother from the United States, what kind of brain do you have?" Brother Qi gave a lecture, and I didn't dare to say anything. You directly rejected it?

He Qing and Tao Huimin also glanced sideways at him and moved away calmly.

Gong Xue turned her head, covering it with her hands, and whispered: "He is going to be in trouble!"

"Does Mr. Chen have a very bad temper?" Li Jianqun was curious.

"He has a good temper, but if he can't come up with real materials to get his approval, his temper will be bad..." Gong Xue laughed softly.

Li Jianqun raised his eyebrows and watched the excitement with great interest.

Zhen Zidan was completely unaware and thought to herself: "I want to use the method I like to act, and I have done my homework."
