Chapter 283 Willing to be a green leaf
Everyone quickly figured out the reason why Yang Ye did not win the award.
"Sword Rain" did not hold a premiere and was screened quietly at a midnight screening in Hong Kong.
With the beautiful scenery of the West Lake and the Chinese-style gardens in the movie, even a fool can tell that it was shot in the Mainland.
However, Taiwan did not say anything, nor did it react to the movie "Wushe Uprising".
After all... this movie won the Golden Lion and was released on a large scale in Europe and the United States, bringing glory to Taiwan.
If Taiwan bans this movie, it will slap itself in the face.
Not only could it not be banned, but it had to be given awards... So it won a bunch of technical awards at the Golden Horse Awards, and finally got one for Best Film.
Just silently, Yang Ye’s personal award failed.
Subsequently, the entire Hong Kong film industry was discussing whether Yang Ye would be banned from Taiwan.
Some companies are even ready to poach people from Baiyang Brokerage Company.
However, Jiahe has learned from the past and Yang Ye is not someone to be trifled with, so everyone decided to wait and see.
If Baiyang really falls, it’s not too late to dig people out.
......
As soon as Xu Ke returned to Hong Kong, he took John Woo to watch the midnight show of "Sword Rain" without caring about rest.
The two bought tickets at a theater near Xinyi City. As soon as they entered, they saw a bald man waving and greeting them. There was also a four-eyed guy sitting next to them, naturally it was Mai Jia and Huang Baiming.
Xu Ke and Wu Yusen walked over. Mai Jia took out two sugar canes from the bag beside him and handed them to them. He said with a smile: "You guys came as soon as you got off the plane?"
John Woo asked: "How long has this movie been released?"
Mai Jia said: "Three days, it is said to be very good. After we finish editing the film today, we will come over to study it."
Xu Ke said: “Taiwan responded so quickly!”
Huang Baiming said: "Didn't you say it was banned? It's just that Yang Ye didn't win the award. Lao Xu, your "Gui Ma Zhi Duo Xing" was also very well directed. Don't belittle yourself."
Mai Jia laughed. : "This matter... is also difficult for Taiwan. Yang Shaogang earned Taiwan a Golden Lion Award, but Taiwan blocked him. It doesn't make sense!
Moreover, he also tricked Lin Qingxia to the mainland. , Lin Qingxia is the face of Taiwan’s film industry, can’t we block the face too?”
Huang Baiming said: “That’s not sure, but I still admire Mr. Yang for this, he is leading by example? Ah, it’s so fierce. If he survives, then our road will be easier in the future.” And the cost is low, which is much more cost-effective than shooting in a studio in Hong Kong or going to Taiwan for filming.”
A few people were chatting, and when the movie started, everyone stopped chatting and watched it attentively.
At the beginning of this movie, a cutscene briefly tells the legend about Rama's body.
Although it lasted only two minutes, it was enough to move the audience present.
Because this animation is smart, beautiful and full of poetry, it is actually a rare ink animation in the world.
Ink animation is not a rarity in later generations, but in today's era, it is too awesome.
In 1960, when the first ink cartoon "Tadpole Looking for Mom" appeared in the eyes of the world, it shocked the world and won awards at many international film festivals.
The general production method of cartoons is single-line flat painting. First draw an original painting as a key frame, and then draw it frame by frame.
But... ink animation has no outlines. Ink is naturally rendered on rice paper, and it is natural. Each scene is an outstanding ink painting.
People in the foreign animation industry can’t figure out how this thing is made even if they scratch their heads.
For a long time, the production methods of ink animation were classified as state secrets and were never disclosed.
The only company in the world that can produce ink animation is Shanghai Animation Film Factory, no one else!
That’s why Xu Ke and John Woo were so shocked when they saw the ink animation at the beginning of "Sword Rain".
Although it only lasts two minutes, this is definitely a big deal, which cannot be bought with money.
It seems that Yang Ye’s relationship with the mainland is indeed unusual.
Continuing to watch, the Blackstone Killer Organization ransacked the Taishi Mansion, killed the chief assistant Zhang Hairui and his son Zhang Renfeng, and took away Rama's body.
This scene uses a few simple shots to explain the incident, and by the way introduces the members of Black Rock.
Then the main film begins.
The first step is to experience a Hu Jinquan-style skyscape. The scenery of the West Lake is breathtakingly beautiful.
Then Lin Qingxia wearing a bamboo hat walked in the picturesque scenery.
This is Hu Jinquan's consistent shooting method. In his movies, there is always a scene where the protagonist is on his way.
Hu Jinquan's picture creation is second to none among all Chinese directors. Although he is just walking, people are wandering in the painting, and the people and scenery are integrated, which does not make people feel impatient.
But this time Hu Jinquan knew how to restrain himself and did not leave for more than ten or twenty minutes as before. Lin Qingxia only left for less than a minute before she begged.
Then Lu Zhu, played by Yang Ye, appeared. This guy had Buddhist beads hanging around his neck, and he turned out to be a monk.
With a hint of pretentiousness, he was entangled with Xiao Yu, played by Lin Qingxia.
A salty guy sitting in the front row of Xu Ke said with great anticipation: "I dress up as a monk to fuck Lin Qingxia, it's exciting just thinking about it, and Yang Ye is the one who knows how to play!"
A Huang Mao next to him asked in confusion: "How do you know that Yang Ye will mess with Lin Qingxia?"
"Have you never seen "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"? Yang Ye messed with Lin Qingxia so much." "Yes."
"I've seen it, I've seen it!" Huang Mao suddenly became excited.
The salty guy stared at the big screen and laughed loudly: "Qingxia, just follow me!"
Xu Ke admired Lin Qingxia very much, and he wished he could This guy's head exploded.
But he still held back and watched the movie carefully.
I saw Yang Ye wearing a cassock, hanging Buddhist beads, and holding a pair of chopsticks. He was sitting cross-legged on the ground like an eminent monk, with a broken bowl in front of him. He said very pretentiously: "You have four moves of sword. I haven't learned all the Dharma..."
Then he used a chopstick to fight against Xiaoyu's long sword, beating Xiaoyu to the left and right.
Wu Yusen whispered to Xu Ke: "The style has changed."
Xu Ke nodded and said: "This time the fight is more focused on fighting skills, there is no "Swordsman" So elegant, but even more thrilling." As soon as Xu Ke finished speaking, Lu Zhu launched a big move and shouted: "hit!"
Everyone thought that Xiao Yu was going to be stabbed to death by Lu Zhu, and then Lu Zhu was stabbed to death by Xiao Yu.
“Damn it!”
“Diurei Laomou!”
“Damn, it turns out he’s not the protagonist!”
"Isn't this just like in the movie "Hundred Killers", where the heroine stabbed to death within three minutes of the appearance."
"No wonder there was no premiere!"
Yang Ye If you die, just die. You can still watch Lin Qingxia. Everyone, keep watching.
Then Lin Qingxia had plastic surgery!
“Give me a normal face!”
The camera turned and it turned into Hui Yinghong.
“I lost it!”
It turns out that Lin Qingxia is not the protagonist either.
The audience cursed again, feeling that this movie was just playing tricks on people.
Continuing to look down, Mai Jia suddenly stared and said: "Grandma has come out of the mountain!"
In the original version of "A Rain of Swords", the matchmaker between the male and female protagonists, Cai Po, was played by Bao Qijing, but Bao Qijing is still a little girl now.
This version of Granny Cai is played by Qian Siying. Qian Siying is China's first generation female star and the grandmother of Hong Jingbao.
Mai Jia and Hong Jingbao are good brothers, and he is also called Grandma Qian Siying.
The plot continues. Xiaoyu, who had undergone plastic surgery and became Hui Yinghong, married an honest man named Jiang Asheng. Their life was tight but very warm.
Blackstone's killers did not give up looking for Xiaoyu. Hong Jingbao, Yuan Biao, Bai Ying, Guan Zhilin, Chen Yulian... stars from Baiyang Company appeared one after another, which was dazzling.
Mai Jiadao: "It's actually an all-star cast. Even grandma and San Mao have guest appearances. Young Master Yang is really brave." Her husband, Jiang Asheng, ended up picking up Guan Zhilin's clothes and ran outside the house shouting.
Guan Zhilin was so frightened that she urinated and ran away wrapped in a quilt. A little bit of her buttocks was still faintly exposed in the picture.
People in the theater laughed so much that they laughed their heads off, and there were also a few curses coming from among them.
The salty guy in the front row of Xu Ke sucked his saliva and cursed: "This ass is so white and tender! This man is so stupid. If it were me, I would fuck him first!"
In order to snatch Rama's body, the Black Stone started an internal strife. The actor died and Xiao Yu was injured. The Wheel King sent Lei Bin and Zhang Qing to lead a group of Black Stone killers to kill Xiao Yu and eliminate the root cause.
He himself took Rama's body and couldn't wait to go back first.
Lei Bin and Zhang Qing came to Xiaoyu's home. Xiaoyu had been seriously injured and was lying on the bed unable to move. Jiang A shivered and begged the two to let his wife go.
The answer is of course no, both Jiang Asheng and Xiao Yu must die.
There is no choice but to fight.
Jiang Asheng took out a rusty sword, and Lei Bin and Zhang Qing laughed dumbly.
“Is this also called a sword?”
“My sword, just sharpen it!”
“Isn’t it too late to sharpen the sword in battle?”
“It’s not too late, not at all!”
Jiang Asheng sharpened his sword time and time again, his eyes gradually becoming sharper.
“Your flying needle is the first attack, and you have a better chance of winning when facing the enemy outdoors. It’s so narrow here, it’s inconvenient for me to use the flying needle!”
Lei Bin finally understood, this special feature What a master!
Suddenly, Lei Bin waved his hands, and flying needles rushed out like a storm.
Jiang Asheng swung his sword, and he shot down all the flying needles easily. During the fight, he pulled off a piece of cloth and wiped it on the sword. The rusty sword immediately became as bright as new.
Blackstone killers appeared one after another, and Jiang Asheng started killing with one sword.
During the fight, Jiang Asheng took out another dagger.
Lei Bin was shocked.
“Don’t you recognize these swords?”
“No way, we have already killed you!”
The scene flashed back, and the audience realized that this Jiang Asheng also had plastic surgery.
He turned out to be Zhang Renfeng, who was killed by Black Stone at the beginning.
Everyone in the theater was shocked by this plot twist.
The sounds of all kinds of shit are endless.
Including Huang Baiming, the professional screenwriter on the scene, did not expect it.
He was extremely impressed and said: "Young Master Yang's screenwriting is so wonderful. In order to prevent people from guessing the twist, he deliberately found a bitch to play Zhang Renfeng at the beginning. After the plastic surgery, Jiang Asheng was also a newcomer who had never been seen before. He hid it well. , Amazing!"
Xu Ke shook his head and said: "This is not an ordinary newcomer. This actor's martial arts moves are so cool. I think only Yang Ye's martial arts moves can compare with him. , Chen Long Yuanbiao and the others are not as good as him.”
Mai Jia was shocked: “You said he is the second Yang Ye?” He can really fight. Yang Ye’s fighting skills are top-notch in the world. And Yang Ye’s talent is not only martial arts.”
Wu Yusen was also surprised by Li Lianjie’s cool moves. He said: “It seems that Yang Ye is doing it. Such a big battle is just to introduce this new person!”
Several professionals, you look at me, I look at you, with inexplicable horror in their eyes.
How optimistic is Yang Ye about this newcomer?
So many celebrities were dispatched to make green leaves for him!
