Chapter 78 I'm here to deliver food
On the first day of the new year, "Fist of Heroes" was released in a temporary theater chain put together by Yang Ye.
Since Yang Ye was assassinated while participating in the Red and White Song Festival in Japan, the national sentiment in the Chinese world has been incited to the extreme. People are impatiently waiting for the release of the movie "Fist of Heroes".
Now as soon as it is released, swarms of people rush to the cinema. No matter how remote the location of the cinema is or how bad the facilities are, it is always full.
The theater was showing from eight o'clock in the morning to two o'clock in the morning, and it was still overcrowded.
After watching the movie, the audience all cursed...
Criticizing the Japanese and Ben people as white-eyed wolves. Yang Ye made the movie to say that there are good people among the Japanese and Ben people, but in the end they wanted to kill Yang Ye.
Calling Yang Ye a fool, he worked so hard to take pictures of good people in Japan, but ended up being killed by the Japanese.
It was really exciting to watch the scolding, especially the last eight minutes of the duel, everyone's adrenaline was racing.
Some people couldn't help shouting in the cinema: "Beat him to death, beat him to death, beat him to death!"
The shouts came one after another, making those who wanted to watch the movie quietly unable to bear it any longer, so they simply stood up and shouted together.
After Yang Ye found out about this situation, he regretted that the film that was released was not a crazy movie like "Ip Man".
If "Ip Man" was released, and the national sentiment aroused by his own assassination was added, when Ip Man shouted the phrase "I want to fight ten"
It is estimated that Today's audiences can tear down movie theaters with excitement.
The Spring Festival in 1976 was on January 31, which fell on a weekend. The Spring Festival in Hong Kong originally had a three-day holiday. The two were superimposed and became a super long holiday lasting five days.
"Fist of Heroes" used these five days to gross nearly 3 million at the box office. People in the industry were dumbfounded. This was even more powerful than "Shaolin Temple"!
Actually, it's normal. "Shaolin Temple" is good to watch, but it doesn't have the BUFF of national sentiment.
Although "Fist of Heroes" also describes that there are good people among the Japanese, everyone is still very happy every time Yang Ye Meng fucks the Japanese.
The most important thing is that Yang Ye is not bragging, he has really fucked a Japanese.
Yes, I did it! Literally.
After watching "Fist of Heroes", everyone felt that Yang Ye was still being humble. If he were a little fiercer, he could press all the Japanese to the ground and rub him.
The box office of "Fist of Heroes" here has been soaring, while Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest are a bit bleak.
Luckily for Golden Harvest, future super director John Woo made a brilliant debut in this year's Spring Festival with "The Princess," which took in 3.4 million at the box office.
After "The Flower of the Emperor" was completed, Jiahe took over another film, "The Secret Master". This movie was filmed in Nepal, and the protagonist is Mao Ying.
Mao Ying is the prototype of Chun Li, with a box office of more than 1 million after its release.
Jiahe barely stabilized the situation with two against one. But because he had a falling out with Yang Ye and lost the role of "Fist of Heroes", he was rumored to be a laughing stock in the industry.
Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang were having a bad time during the Spring Festival. Zou Wenhuai was ready to put down his dignity and negotiate with Yang Ye, but Yang Ye avoided them and hid in Taiwan.
Zou Wenhuai had no choice but to immediately change the film to deal with it. Although the box office was not bad, after this incident, he lost face after all.
Shaw Brothers released "Eight-Power Allied Forces" by great director Chang Cheh, with a box office of 1.17 million, which can be regarded as maintaining Chang Cheh's level.
Although Shaw Brothers ranked last at the box office, Shao Laoliu didn't care, but was in a good mood.
The Shao family has many properties, and movies are just one of them. Unlike Zou Wenhuai, he can only rely on movies to make a living.
He has always been worried about Zou Wenhuai's betrayal, and he was very happy to see Zou Wenhuai defeated.
Fang Yihua said: "I didn't expect that Ah Ye actually gave up playing the leading role this time and wanted Ti Lung to play."
Shao Yifu said with a smile: "This guy is showing us Okay!"
Fang Yihua said: "Starting in A Ye's movie will definitely make Ti Lung famous, but I'm afraid that he will become the second Wang Yu by then."
< br>
Run Run Shao said: "Let's talk about the future later. Since Aye has shown kindness to us, we have to catch him. If nothing else, we can at least suppress Jiahe. This kid Yang Ye has become a celebrity now, and his reputation among the people is too high. He's tall, and it's hard to mess with him if he's white. He's a local gangster in Kowloon Walled City, and the average society doesn't want to mess with him."
Fang Yihua was speechless: "This bad guy is a piece of meat. Ah!”
……
After Yang Ye spent the Spring Festival comfortably at Deng’s house, Deng Lijun is going to perform in Japan. She is now developing very well in Japan, and she has spent half of the year Spend all your time in Japan.
Yang Ye sent Lijun Teng to the airport and casually threw her two classic Japanese songs from later generations, asking her to release her album in Japan.
Deng Lijun took the music score and hummed it once, hugged Yang Ye hard and kissed her: "Husband, you are awesome!"
Yang Ye chuckled: "Writing songs is nothing, I have more. Great, do you want it?"
Teng Lijun rolled her eyes at him: "Keep it until I come back to check."
After sending Deng Lijun away, Yang Ye returned to Taipei and began to discuss with Hu Jinquan. Film framing and some film shooting details.
Hu Jinquan said: "Since I can't go to the mainland for filming, I plan to go to Japan and South Korea for inspection to see if I can find a suitable filming location."
Yang Ye said: "If I can't find it, I'll build it myself in Taiwan. It costs so much money anyway."
When Hu Jinquan was filming "The Heroine", he spent NT$9 million to build an ancient town. Yang Ye was so happy that he was willing to spend money, and he was ready to have a big fight.
Yang Ye said: "As for the desert glacier scene, the most suitable one is of course to go to XJ! Unfortunately, I can only think about it. I will go to the United States in a while, and I will go there to have a look. If it is suitable If so, go to the United States to shoot."
That's all. But Mr. Yang, there is something I want to discuss with you."
"What do you say?" br>
""Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is a story that took place in the Qing Dynasty, but I have always thought that the Qing Dynasty was not suitable for filming martial arts. First of all, during the battle, the pig's tail was swinging around, which was difficult to handle. Also, the costumes of the Qing Dynasty were not enough. It's elegant, the men wear mandarin jackets, and the women wear cheongsam, so I suggest... changing the dynasty to the Ming Dynasty. "
Hu Jinquan is an expert on Ming Dynasty history and a Ming Dynasty fanatic. It is the most suitable dynasty for filming martial arts dramas. When filming martial arts dramas, the background must be the Ming Dynasty.
When Yang Ye heard this, he suddenly blushed. Because he only wanted to copy movies and had not considered these issues.
In fact, one of the reasons why Yang Ye did not want to play Li Mubai was that he did not want to shave his yin and yang head and keep a pig tail.
The role of Luo Xiaohu happened to require no head shaving, so he chose Luo Xiaohu.
But he never thought... that he could just change the background of the story.
Yang Ye thought about it carefully. With Hu Jinquan, an expert on Ming history, he could make the details of the movie perfect, and it would not be a problem to surpass Li Yin's original version.
Yang Ye said: "What you are considering, Old Hu, is indeed very reasonable. But... Wang Dulu is still alive. Xia Meng and I wrote a personal letter and asked someone to take it to the mainland and deliver it to him personally. We only started filming this film after obtaining his authorization. Now if we want to change the background of his story, the change would be too big. I think we should respect the author’s own opinion.”
< br>Hu Jinquan asked in shock: "Wang Dulu is still alive?" Yang Ye said: "He is not yet 70 years old, it is not surprising that he is still alive."
"Well... I mistakenly thought he was from the last century. But what Yang Shaoqian did was really authentic. In fact, we are now isolated from the mainland, so this movie was filmed. Wang Dulu couldn't do anything if he knew about it, but You actually went through so much trouble to find him to obtain authorization, and you have shown such respect to literary and artistic workers. This is really the only time in my life.”
Yang Ye thought to himself, I respect him so much. If I did, why would I copy so enthusiastically every day? I'm just setting up a character for myself.
Yang Ye smiled and said: "We are also literary and artistic workers. To respect others is to respect ourselves."
Hu Jinquan said: "This is a good saying. In this case, we can write another letter Send the letter to the mainland and explain the situation to Mr. Wang Dulu. I think he will understand."
Yang Ye said: "Just do it."
...
After Yang Ye and Hu Jinquan completed their discussion, Hu Jinquan set off.
Yang Ye called Qiong Yao's home, and it happened to be Lin Qingxia who answered the phone.
"Qingxia, why are you at home? Don't you have to go filming?"
"I have finished filming the film from a year ago, and I will be filming China Film's "The Eight Hundred Heroes" after the Chinese New Year. I can’t take other roles.”
"I see, have you finished reading my script?"
"Yes."
"Then I'll go and get it. Is it convenient now?"
"Convenient , but...can I read the follow-up script?"
"Yes, but this thing is very boring, why would you like to read it?"
"No, I think it's very interesting. I've never seen such a script before. It's just like watching a movie. It's very interesting."
"Then if you have nothing to do, come and find me. I live in In..."
Yang Ye said the address of the hotel and hung up the phone.
Lin Qingxia put down the microphone and suddenly hesitated. She originally wanted Yang Ye to bring the script to her, but Yang Ye asked her to go to the hotel to read it.
“Should I...go?”
Lin Qingxia hesitated for a moment, then finally packed up, put the novel and script of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" into her bag, and went out.
She thought: Yang Ye is a big star, why would he send me a script? Of course I should go and take a look.
Moreover, this script is so detailed. It must have taken a long time to create it. It would be very unsafe to move it around. I should go over and read it.
After Lin Damei thought about it for a while, she happily delivered the takeout.
……
Not long after, Lin Qingxia arrived at the hotel where Yang Ye was staying and rang the doorbell of Yang Ye's room.
"Qingxia, you're here so soon." Yang Ye let her in and asked, "Have you eaten?"
"Have eaten!"
Yang Ye took out the script and said, "Read it slowly."
Lin Qingxia sighed, sat at the desk, and read it seriously.
Yang Ye did not disturb her, occupied a corner of the table, took out a stack of manuscript paper and wrote "Canghai" there.
When Lin Qingxia knew that she was playing the role of Yu Jiao Long, she paid special attention to the plot of Yu Jiao Long. She flipped through the pages and her face suddenly turned red.
Because it was clearly stated in the script that there was an intimate scene between Yu Jiaolong and Luo Xiaohu.
Moreover, the script is very explicit. What postures to use, where to touch your hands, and how to shoot are all clearly written.
Lin Qingxia was suddenly very angry and felt that Yang Ye was lying to her.
Since there is an intimate scene, why not tell it beforehand?
She remembers that when she was 17 years old, when she decided to make a movie, the director first took out the complete script and showed it to her and her mother.
Then her mother took the script and marked all the kissing scenes with a cross.
The director quickly said he could borrow the seat. Only then did her mother agree.
Yang Ye's script obviously has an intimate scene, but he only brought the beginning part to find her and Qiong Yao. Isn't this a lie?
Lin Qingxia wanted to talk to Yang Ye for some reasoning. When she looked up, she saw Yang Ye writing an article seriously on the manuscript paper. She couldn't help but take a curious look.
Oh my God! His handwriting is so neat.
Lin Qingxia forgot to read the script and stared at Yang Ye to watch him write.
After a while, Yang Ye raised his head to take a cup to drink water, only to find that the little girl was staring at him. She said in surprise: "Why are you looking at me?"
Lin Qingxia blushed and then remembered that she wanted to question Yang Ye. It's a pity that after so long, the previous anger has disappeared.
Lin Qingxia carefully brewed her emotions and felt a little angry, so she said: "Um... does Xiaolong have any intimate scenes?"
After asking Lin Qingxia, she wanted to slap herself! What's your anger level? What's the point of asking people so softly?
Yang Ye said calmly: "Yes, what's the matter? Xiaolong and Xiaohu really love each other, of course there will be intimate scenes."
"Then...why didn't you say it before?"< br>
Lin Qingxia tried her best to make herself angry, but her words were still weak.
Yang Ye snorted and said, "You think I'm lying and only showed you the first half of the script on purpose, right?"
"Yes!"
"You guessed it right? Yes, it is true.”
“Huh?” Lin Qingxia was confused.
She thought many times about how Yang Ye would argue and how she should respond. But I never thought that Yang Ye would actually admit it.
This made her not know what to say for a moment.
