Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

Hu Jinquan, Leslie Cheung, Chen Yulin, Li Saifeng and other film creators lined up on the stage.

Before the start of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", they accepted a brief interview.

"The drama "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is the most special work I have ever filmed since I started acting."

On the stage, Hu Jinquan began to talk about his feelings about the drama "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

The reason why he said it was most special was because this was the first time he had returned to the Mainland for filming.

Before this, Hu Jinquan was either in Baodao or Bangguo and other places, looking for a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters to shoot.

It can be said that returning to the mainland to shoot a movie is not only a strange thing for him, but also for others.

However, regarding filming in the Mainland, the crew has issued a hush-hush order from top to bottom.

No one is allowed to tell anyone about this. If the outside world asks, just say that it was a scene taken in Hong Kong and Bangguo.

Even in places like Guilin Landscape, you can recognize where it is just by looking at it.

But sometimes, the difference between admitting and not admitting is still very big.

If "Legend of Sword and Fairy" wants to be released on the island, it will definitely have to kill this drama by not going to the mainland for filming.

As for whether Baodao believes it when the time comes, it depends on whether Lin Daoqiu is smart enough.

"This movie was the hardest movie I have ever filmed, but I am very satisfied with the final result, so I am also very pleased."

As the leading actor, Leslie Cheung can be said to have suffered a lot in the movie "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

Fortunately, when filming "Lotus Contest", Leslie Cheung began to systematically conduct martial arts training.

In recent years, he has been filming TV series for ATV and has also filmed several costume and modern action dramas.

Therefore, for Leslie Cheung, fighting scenes is not the most difficult aspect for him to overcome. The most difficult aspect is the difficult local shooting conditions.

"Actually, Rong Shao is the one who works hardest in our film. He does many difficult fight scenes himself without a substitute. I really admire him."

Lin Yueru, played by Li Saifeng, has always been by Li Xiaoyao's side.

It can be said that she has the most scenes opposite Leslie Cheung, so she knows all about it.

"Aman actually suffered a lot in this drama. Everyone knows that Lin Yueru is a girl who grew up practicing martial arts, so you can imagine how difficult it is to play the role of Lin Yueru well."

"Don't look at Aman's coquettish appearance. When it comes to practicing kung fu, she is very serious and can endure hardships."

Regarding Li Saifeng's impression, whether it is Leslie Cheung or Hu Jinquan, including Chen Yulian, they all admire this little sister very much.

You must know that for a person with no martial arts background to suddenly play a role like Lin Yueru, it must be a very big challenge for Li Saifeng.

Being praised like this by everyone, Li Saifeng looked very embarrassed.

"I heard Mr. Lin say before that the special effects of this movie cost 40 million. I was almost scared to death."

As the host, Dong Piao couldn't help but mention this matter again in front of the audience.

Most of the audience present actually didn't know about this yet.

So when Dong Piao finished speaking, a burst of exclamations immediately erupted from the scene.

Lin Daoqiu actually didn't want to regard this matter as a selling point, but now it seems that he can't do it if he doesn't.

"Mr. Lin, since everyone is so curious about this matter, why don't you come up and talk to everyone about the special effects of this drama?"

Dong Piao took the initiative to send an invitation to Lin Daoqiu.

Lin Daoqiu, who was sitting next to Zhong Chuhong, could only smile and nodded, then stood up from his seat and walked towards the stage.

Taking the microphone handed over by Dong Piao, Lin Daoqiu first smiled and then said.

"Actually, when we first started doing the special effects for "Legend of Sword and Fairy", we didn't set how much it would cost. It was only after I finished it that I found out that the film actually cost 40 million."

"If I had known that this movie would cost so much money, I might not have made it."

Although Lin Daoqiu said this, in fact, he had no idea about how much money "Legend of Sword and Fairy" would cost.

Otherwise, when he handed over "Legend of Sword and Fairy" to Magic Studio, he could have set the upper limit for special effects costs first.

"Mr. Lin, so much money has been spent on "Legend of Sword and Fairy", do you think this drama will be able to make back its money in the end?"

Liu Zhirong, who was standing next to him, asked directly in front of Lin Daoqiu the doubts in the hearts of many people present.

"In fact, many people have asked me this question. What I want to say is that no matter whether "Legend of Sword and Fairy" can pay back its original cost in the end, from the current point of view, this drama has satisfied the requirements in terms of plot, martial arts, and special effects.

If you meet my request, I don’t care if you lose money or not.”

Only Lin Daoqiu could say such a grand statement.

If it were someone else who said this, I'm afraid they wouldn't laugh and call it a slap in the face.

"The trend of special effects movies will not change. Even if "Legend of Sword and Fairy" fails to meet expectations in the end, I will continue to invest in special effects movies."

After Lin Daoqiu finished speaking, thunderous applause immediately broke out.

At this time, Hu Jinquan and many other film creators had also walked off the stage.

After everyone was seated, the theater lights slowly dimmed.

As the big screen slowly lit up, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was officially presented to the audience.

At the same time, on the other side, at the premiere of "New Shushan Swordsman", the movie had already started for ten minutes.

For a movie with this theme, many people who buy tickets to enter the theater are curious.

They had watched too many martial arts and kung fu comedies before, and now a fairy tale movie like this suddenly appeared.

Different from monster movies, the martial arts and special effects scenes are jaw-dropping.

At the beginning of "New Shushan Swordsman", special photography technology was used to shoot scenes of mountains.

The sight of strange rocks and smoke is jaw-dropping.

For ordinary viewers who have never been exposed to special effects movies, the opening of "New Shushan Swordsman" is indeed full of surprises.

However, the opening ten minutes are all about war scenes that have nothing to do with Xianxia movies, which is a bit disappointing.

If it weren't for the scenes that appeared at the beginning of the movie, the audience might have mistakenly thought that this was an ancient war movie rather than a fairy tale movie.

However, Tsui Hark did not keep everyone waiting for too long. After more than ten minutes, "New Shushan Swordsman" slowly revealed its true colors.
