From collapsed house idol to entertainment superstar

"Chug, tug, tug, tug, tug!"

Not far away, it seemed that the foundations of a building under construction were being laid early in the morning, making an annoying noise.

There were already quite a few office workers on the road, biting into pieces of bread and hurriedly getting ready to catch the MTR train.

Two guys in military uniforms were patrolling the street. The older one suddenly had his eyes fixed, reached out to touch the young partner next to him, and pointed to the other side of the street.

The young police officer followed his partner's reminder and looked there, only to see a strange, tall man with a slovenly appearance.

It was summer at this time, and the neighbors walking by on the roadside were all dressed in summer clothes. There was even an uncle who only wore a white vest and shorts.

This man was wearing a gray sweatshirt and a duck-billed hat to hide his face. He was walking in a hurry. He obviously didn't look normal.

The two looked at each other and stepped forward to meet him.

"Hey! Send someone!"

The two men in military uniforms gathered around and directly intercepted the tall, slovenly man who was trying to avoid them.

"Take out your ID card and see!"

The man then raised his head. What was covered by the cap was a sharp-edged face. He probably hadn't trimmed his beard for many days. The hair coming out from under the cap was also greasy and crooked. The whole person seemed rather awkward.

For being slovenly.

After hearing what the two military uniforms said, the man didn't say much. He lowered his head and rummaged through his pocket, and then handed over his ID card.

The older police officer handed his ID card to his partner next to him.

"Go check it out and see what it is made of!"

"receive!"

The young police officer took a few steps outside, turned his back to the two of them, and took out his walkie-talkie to contact the headquarters.

"Head office, look for an ID card, number C532743, ending in 1, Ji Zhengxiong."

Ji Zhengxiong kept looking at the back of the young police officer from the corner of his eye.

At the same time, the man in military uniform who was staring at Ji Zhengxiong from the side focused his attention on his bulging waist bag.

"What's in that bag? Open it and take a look!"

Only the words of the elderly uniformed policeman brought Ji Zhengxiong back to his senses after taking a peek.

After probably hesitating for less than a second, he naturally opened the zipper of his pocket bag and reached in to dig for something.

"Kacha."

A familiar voice sounded, and before the military uniform could react, Ji Zhengxiong lifted his pocket bag and pointed it at him.

The fire suddenly appeared.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After three gunshots, the soldier in military uniform only had time to put his hands behind his waist before he was knocked to the ground on the spot.

On the other side, another military uniform was still waiting for a reply from the main station. After hearing the gunshot, he didn't have time to turn around and check what happened.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Ji Zhengxiong still didn't take out the gun, he directly raised his pocket and pointed it at the young military uniform and emptied the magazine.

From checking the ID card, to being asked to open the pocket bag, to shooting, it all happened in less than a minute.

The whole process was swift, fierce, and decisive to the extreme!

If he had hesitated even half a moment in this series of smooth operations and given a well-trained uniformed police officer even a few seconds to react, the result might have been very different.

Of course, this assumption does not exist.

So much so that for several seconds after the gunshot was fired, an old scavenger not far away was still looking at us in a daze, motionless.

Until a few seconds later, the old man said nothing, picked up his bag of garbage, and ran away. There was a clatter of empty plastic bottles in the bag on the ground, and even his shoes ran away.

Ji Zhengxiong ignored it.

He calmly walked to the young soldier lying in a pool of blood and picked up his ID card.

Then he quickly ran away into the deserted alley.

"Card!"

Outside the screen, the short and fat Huang Zhixiong shouted loudly with a loudspeaker.

"Ding Sheng is truly unparalleled (super awesome)! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

"Ji Zhengxiong" who had just wandered around the alley and returned, took off his hat and his greasy wig, revealing his original appearance.

Surprisingly, it was Ding Zhi.

After finalizing their intention to make a cameo, they immediately entered into filming.

The character Ji Zhengxiong he played just now is actually Ji Bingxiong, the invisible thief king adapted from the Three Thieves.

The scene he filmed was also adapted from his most notorious "police killing" incident that has become famous ever since.

This incident, like Ye Guohuan holding an AK and shooting on the streets of Hong Kong Island, and Zhang Ziqiang kidnapping the son of a rich man, are the landmark events that made Ji Bingxiong one of the "Three Thieves".

"Ding Sheng is indeed a great director who has achieved a box office of 4.2 billion. Experts will know if they are successful as soon as they take action!"

Huang Zhixiong still sighed with "true feelings".

"After your adjustments, the style of the whole play has become much sharper. It's awesome! It's wonderful!"

Yes, the scene just filmed was actually the result of adjustments based on Ding Zhi’s suggestions.

Originally, Huang Zhixiong planned to follow the original version, that is, reality, where Ji Bingxiong and his accomplices escaped and injured the British inspector.

Ding Zhi put forward another suggestion, which was the version just shot.

In just a few minutes of the play, Ding Zhi didn't even have a single line, but he vividly interpreted the calm, sinister and cruel qualities of "Ji Zhengxiong".

"Director Huang is overly praised."

"No, no! I'm even thinking that if the filming of this drama isn't almost finished now, maybe if you, Ding Sheng, direct it, the effect will be even better!"

To be honest, no one would hate someone who flatters you, especially if the other person also has a high status.

Although Ding Zhi agreed to make a cameo mainly because of Liang Jiahui's face, I have to say that Huang Zhixiong's almost "out of character" enthusiasm really makes people feel very comfortable.

The time Ding Zhi reserved for "The King of Thieves" was not long, only two days.

After filming today's scene, he was officially "finished".

After declining Huang Zhixiong and Liang Jiahui's attempts to stay, he officially started his other purpose in going to Hong Kong.

That was the preliminary preparation for "The Intouchables".

The story of Ding Zhi's version of "The Intouchables" takes place on Hong Kong Island. The main structure of the story script was proposed by Ding Zhi, which was then filled in and improved by SWAG Studio, and was also found through Lin Chaoxian.

I got some localization suggestions from several screenwriter friends here.

The draft has been revised several times, and now it is almost finalized.

In addition to scouting locations with the creatives who came with them, such as photographers, there is another important factor, and that is finding actors.

In the script, Liang Jiahui also has a "female pen pal".

If it were similar to the original script and found a young and beautiful woman, it would be somewhat inconsistent.

There is some ambiguity in our concept of "old husband and young wife".

Especially when the role of Liang Jiahui is still labeled as a "rich man paralyzed in bed", it is even more weird.

So Ding Zhi modified this character to be a childhood sweetheart with a rich man. After being separated for some reason, in recent years, he got in touch by chance on the Internet.

In this way, it seems a lot more logical.

When Ding Zhi was looking for this role, the first person he found was Hui Yinghong.

Hui Yinghong, who has a background as a female beater, can be regarded as an actress who became famous at a young age.

She won the Best Actress award at the first Hong Kong Golden Elephant Awards that year, and she was unparalleled in the limelight.

However, after she turned 30, the situation took a turn for the worse. Traditional martial arts movies were abandoned by the times, and Hong Kong movies became a world dominated by Xia Yu, Fang Hong, Xian Zhen and Min Xin.

However, her image was solidified as a girl-beater, and she could not get any suitable roles at all, and was soon forgotten.

When she reappeared in the audience's sight, she was already in her forties.

Finally, at the age of fifty, she won the second Golden Elephant Award for Best Actress, and at the age of fifty-five, she was awarded the Queen title three times.

She has become a representative actress who "becomes more seductive as she gets older" in her career.

Likewise, among the actresses of the same generation, there are very few who are still active on the front line.

Of course, there is another reason why Ding Zhi chose her, that is, she is probably the most cost-effective type of movie queen (dog head).

After all, Brother Zhi is famous for his diligence and frugality.

In addition to her, Ding Zhi also quickly finalized other supporting actors in the following time.

After all, Bona is also involved in this drama.

It can be regarded as the first "testing work" jointly released by the two companies.

While Ding Zhi was busy in Hong Kong, hot topics about him in the Mainland were once again detonated.

The reason is simple.

While the popularity of "Ruyu" has not completely cooled down, the subsequent chain reactions caused by "The God of Medicine" have also begun to emerge.

First of all, this year’s revision of the Drug Law has begun to be demonstrated and analyzed.

Because of the public opinion caused by "The God of Medicine", the Drug Law and related criminal laws were revised. Once this matter was exposed, it instantly triggered a frenzy of public opinion.

Topics related to "The God of Medicine", which has been released for a long time, have become hot searches again after a few months.

The law that was changed because of a movie is probably the "Melting Pot Law" of the country next door that we have heard about most.

That movie called "The Crucible" was one of the few movies that changed the country's attitude of "admit its mistakes and never change them".

The release of that movie at that time caused an uproar, and the public opinion it aroused directly changed the relevant laws of Bangzi Country, greatly increasing the sentencing of juvenile offenders in Xingqing, and not granting suspended sentences.

Whenever that film is mentioned, most people will add the sentence "it changed the laws of a country."

The film's male lead, Kong Liu, was further promoted to the "sacred altar" because of that film.

And now, the effect that "The God of Medicine" can achieve is the same.

The popularity of "Ruyu" on the front foot has not dissipated, and the influence of "The God of Medicine" on the back foot has begun to ferment on a large scale.

Because of a movie, the relevant drug laws were revised, which was more shocking to the public than the previous hit and popularity of "Wish".

Because one is to remember the past, while the other is to "change the future."

——"Fuck! That's awesome! That's awesome! Ding Zhi YYDS!

!”

——"One movie per person has exerted such a huge social influence. "The God of Medicine" is worthy of being a masterpiece of domestic dramas!"

——"Are there still people who question whether this film can be used to confer gods? Are there still people who question whether this film has been over-hyped? A film that is loved by audiences and has even had such a huge social influence is not enough to be considered as a canon.

God?"

——"Tell me a scary hot fact, Ding Zhi is only 27 years old this year! "The God of Medicine" is his film debut! Oh my god! I never thought there is such a genius in the entertainment industry!"

——"Don't brag, don't brag! What if Ding Zhi gets excited and becomes a director full-time! He is also very good as an actor! Without him, what will we see in the future!"

And at this juncture, the new Golden Bear Award, which has undergone a year of reforms and changes, has also come out to join in the fun.

First of all, the opening time is set, and the opening ceremony will be held in Xiamen one month later.

Then there are the shortlists for various awards that attract the most attention.

Among them, "The God of Medicine" has become the film with the most awards nominated for this new Golden Bear Award.

Best Actor, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, Best Picture, and Best Score.

A total of six awards were shortlisted.

On the first step, the connection between "The God of Medicine" and the Revised Law was exposed. On the other hand, "The God of Medicine" was shortlisted for six Golden Bear Awards.

The two hot searches were on the hot search list almost seamlessly.

——""The God of Medicine" is so awesome! Let's talk about it! These six awards, even if they are all awarded to "The God of Medicine", they all seem to be well-deserved."

——"Best Picture for "The God of Medicine"! Ding Zhi is the defending Best Actor! Zhang Yi is the Best Supporting Actor! What I said, even Jesus has no face to answer!"

——"Reasonable discussion to cool down the crazy Ding Zhi fans on the Internet.

It is not uncommon for a popular film on the shortlist in previous years to fail. This year, in addition to "The God of Medicine", its competitors are also quite strong. Don't be fooled by public opinion, in case "The God of Medicine"

If the award-winning result is not as expected, then the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."

——"Yes, this is the first Golden Bear Award after the reform. There is no precedent to follow. Maybe something will happen."

——"Why do you want to cool down the temperature? The person upstairs who said he wanted to cool down the fans seems to be right, but what he said is wrong both inside and outside! What does it mean to coerce public opinion? What does it mean that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment?

The current situation is that "The God of Medicine" has indeed won six shortlists. It can be called the most popular movie this year. It has also had a huge social influence. Douban has scored more than 200,000 people. Finally, it came to

It has a Douban score of 9.1. That’s it. Which movie this year can compare to it?

In this case, is there anything wrong with the Internet being optimistic about it?

If the Golden Bear Award is really unique for the sake of being "unique" and deliberately upsets it to make it useless, then this reform will actually be in vain."

Suddenly, the two events that led to the revision of the Drug Law and the inclusion of "Drug God" in the six categories of this year's Golden Bear Awards were added up.

The discussion of convergence has become unprecedentedly loud.

This situation has even made many people in the industry sigh with exaggeration.

Last year I thought that year was the "Dingzhi Year", but this year I discovered that it turns out that this year is the "Dingzhi Year".

I don’t know if every year in the next few years will be a “Dingzhi Year”.
