Dreams of the Fragrant River

Why did Kang Jianfei tell Cheng Long those things?

Because it is very simple, these so-called urban kung fu comedy elements are all summed up from Cheng Long's action films in later generations. [;First appearance] Even if Kang Jianfei didn't say anything, Cheng Long and Jiahe would have made a movie like that.

Kang Jianfei not only wants to tell Cheng Long, but also uses the mouths of some people to reveal it so that all Hong Kong colleagues know, this can greatly improve his reputation and status in the Hong Kong film circle, which is the kind of status in the field of film art. .

As for these summaries, they may be useful to savvy and talented directors, but to make a good movie and make it a hit, there are too many key factors needed. of.

"Aaron, what do you think is the best way to shoot this scene?" Kang Jianfei was standing in the Villa Esther. Behind him was an elegant and beautiful Renaissance building. In front of him was a fountain with exquisite sculptures. There were various stones beside him. Stools, flower stands, etc.

At this point, on the third day of filming, neither Charles Bronson nor Sophie Marceau had come to report to the crew, because their scenes were all filmed in Rome.

Cheng Long is still very satisfied with the filming process. He had already made plans to follow Kang Jianfei's command completely, just like when he was filming in Hollywood, he completely followed the orders of the Hollywood director. Cheng Long did not expect that after the start, although various camera positions, lenses, art, etc. were all made by Kang Jianfei, whenever he encountered an action scene, Kang Jianfei would sincerely seek his opinion.

The martial arts director is Cheng Long himself, but the martial arts masters are the entire Married Family Class and part of the Kang Family Class.

"Is this okay," Cheng Long said, pointing to the steps in the distance. "Benny chased him from the garden, then we started fighting on the steps and slowly hit the fountain. In the end, they all fell into the fountain pool. The movement of both sides in the water is limited. It must be interesting to fight."

Kang Jianfei made up for the action scene suggested by Cheng Long, and then agreed, and then discussed the details of the martial arts action with Cheng Long and Binny Yuquedz.

Binny Yuquedz is the one who will fight against Cheng Long in the future. In 1980, he won the world free kick lightweight championship. He is now a world champion in several fighting competitions.

In order to make the film well, Kang Jianfei and Jiahe spared no expense, not only invited the world champion Binny Yuquedz, but also invited Thailand's "Flying Eagle" Prayuth. And Chinese world boxing champion Zhou Billy.

The deeds of Binny Yuquedz and Prayut are well-known in the fighting world, and their co-starring will definitely attract countless fighting fans.

Just five years ago. The "hundred-year war" between karate and muay thai is still going on, and karate is at an absolute disadvantage. In order to defeat Muay Thai, Japanese martial arts celebrity Kurosaki invited Binny Yukudz as a foreign aid. In Tokyo against Thailand's famous "Flying Eagle" Prayut.

at the Tokyo Pastoral Theater. More than 5,000 spectators eagerly waited for Yuquedez to crush his opponents with his "stereoscopic technique". But in the face of Prayuth's steely leg sweep and knee slam, Yukudez looked vulnerable--Yukudz was born in kick boxing, didn't know Muay Thai at all, and had no good way to deal with it.

After 6 rounds of hard fighting, Yuquedz, who was covered in injuries, finally fell to the ground, and his confidence and courage were crushed.

Two months later, Kurosaki had hoped that the two would fight again. But Yuquedez had lost his fighting spirit, and he withdrew from the game. Yuquedz said: "For quite a long time, I would often wake up in the night with nightmares. I was suffocated by the rain of kicks and knees, as if I had been crushed. I don't understand how, How can a champion like me be beaten so badly?"

Since then, Binny Yuquidz has been depressed, unwilling to train and compete again, and even plans to retire from the fighting world. Many people in the fighting world are deeply saddened.

At this time, Yuquedz suddenly received a letter from his opponent Prayuth.

In the letter, Prayut praised Yuquedez as an excellent fighter with solid basic skills and comprehensive skills, but his style was not tough enough. At the same time, Prayuth sternly accused Yuquedz of giving up on himself. He said: "A fighter can be knocked down by his opponent again and again, but he must never be knocked down by himself."

The letter awakened Yuquedez, who resumed training, focusing on strength training and punching power in muay thai, no-holds-barred fighting. Two years later, Binny Uquidez won the world free kickboxing championship, and several more world championships in the years that followed.

Prayuth is now ranked fifth in the Muay Thai world, and the peak of age and physical strength has passed. After receiving the invitation from Kang Jianfei, he immediately agreed.

After Kang Jianfei invited Prayuth, he immediately asked Binny Yukudz to invite them, hoping that the two would have a show in the movie. Hearing that Prayut was also there, Yuquedz agreed immediately, not hesitate to delay the training.

After successfully inviting Yuquedz, Zhou Billy was naturally caught. Because the two are very good friends, Yuquedz often helps Zhou Billy prepare for the battle.

In the film, the characters played by Binny Yukudz and Prayut are the thugs of the two faction bosses in the Mafia family, while Billy Zhou is a friend who called in from Hong Kong overnight after Cheng Long was threatened. .

But at this time, only Binny had a role in the small town. Like Sophie Marceau and others, Prayuth and Zhou Billy would only appear after entering Rome.

"You came here and punched me, then I turned around and kicked your crotch. You clamped my foot between your legs, smiled at me, and punched me in the face... "..." Cheng Long said to Binny Yukudz, who had gone to the United States to make two movies, and his English skills were much better than Kang Jianfei's.

When Cheng Long was filming, he once made a big joke. He was staying in a hotel arranged by the crew, and at night someone shoved a piece of paper under the door. Cheng Long was dumbfounded when he saw that it was all in English. He hurriedly looked for someone everywhere to recognize the words written on it, but found that his translator didn't know where to go, so he hurriedly called back to Hong Kong.

After two full hours of transoceanic phone calls, Cheng Long finally figured out the matter - he was holding a menu in his hand.

Since then, Cheng Long began to study English hard, but after several years of study, it is still difficult to communicate in English.

But fortunately, Binny Uquidez and Billy Zhou are good friends, and Billy Zhou spent his childhood in Hong Kong, so Binny also learned some simple Cantonese from Billy Zhou.

Cheng Long and Binny use English between Chinese and take out by gestures, so they can communicate without any problems.

",!" Binny Yukudz nodded again and again.

Kang Jianfei did not immediately ask the photographer to shoot, because Cheng Long and Benny had to rehearse and adjust several times in order to find the most perfect fighting action.

It was not until more than ten minutes later that Kang Jianfei asked the photographer to turn on the camera, and Cheng Long, Lin Qingxia, Binny and others also took their positions.

Cheng Long ran away with the injured Lin Qingxia, while Binny led a group of men in black suits to chase. After the two gangs came into contact, the injured Lin Qingxia was in charge of dealing with the miscellaneous soldiers, while Cheng Long fought against Binny.

Yesterday, Kang Jianfei had already finished filming the fight scenes between Lin Qingxia and the mafia gangsters, and half of the fight scenes were completed with the help of the stand-in Yang Qingqing.

However, since this is a chaotic fight, Lin Qingxia will also join in the fight between Cheng Long and Binny today.

After being punched a few times by Binny, Kang Jianfei stopped filming and asked the makeup artist to swell the corners of Cheng Long's mouth. In the subsequent fight scene, according to Cheng Long's design, the two rolled into the fountain pool together, and the one covered in water began to beat him funny.

Cheng Long and Binny were choking each other in the pool, just like wrestling with street hooligans. At this time, Lin Qingxia finally got over a dozen mafia gangsters, brought a flower pot over, and smashed it directly on Binny's head.

"Crack!"

After hearing Kang Jianfei shouting, Cheng Long and Binny, who were soaking wet, finally got up from the fountain.

The scene wasn't over yet, and Binny was lying on the edge of the fountain, letting the makeup artist get mud on his head. The flower pot was smashed into pieces, and the shards were scattered around by Kang Jianfei, while the tulips in the pot grew on Binny's head together with the soil.

When filming started again, Lin Qingxia pulled out a dagger and was about to kill the unconscious Binny.

Cheng Long quickly took her hand and said, "There's no need to kill people."

Lin Qingxia said, "He's a mafia killer who came to kill me specifically. You told me to let him go?"

"It's always not good to kill people." Cheng Long persuaded bitterly.

Lin Qingxia was too lazy to listen to him, turned around and stabbed Benny with a dagger, while Cheng Long slashed at the back of Lin Qingxia's neck with a palm from behind, and then left quickly carrying the unconscious Lin Qingxia.

"Crack! Prepare for the next game!"

Kang Jianfei put a coat on Lin Qingxia, turned around and asked Wu Yusen, "Is the layout ready at the town entrance?"

Wu Yusen nodded and said, "It's done~www.wuxiaspot.com~ After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but add, "Director, I think a little gunfight can be added to the play. "

"What kind of shootout?" Kang Jianfei asked.

Wu Yusen said: "The hero and heroine were besieged in the church, and then had a gun battle with the black-clad mafia, with spiritual songs as background music..."

Before he could finish speaking, Kang Jianfei asked, "Are we going to get a few pigeons flying around, let the sun shine through the church window, and give a slow-motion shot of a few pigeons flying and the exchange of fire?"

Wu Yusen's eyes lit up and said, "That would be more perfect. It must be very satisfying to shoot."

Kang Jianfei was a little speechless to this fellow, adding Wu's violent aesthetics to Cheng Long's kung fu comedy, thinking about it, there is a sense of time and space disorder.

It's not that Cheng Long's action films can't have gunfights, but they can't be violent aesthetics, but should be the kind of feeling that makes people laugh when they hide from bullets.
