Chapter 0856 Fan Wenqiang can't replace Han Lan

Two kung fu movies will be released at the end of this year, one is "Ip Man" produced by Tomahawk Films from Huaguo, and the other is "The Grandmaster 2" produced by Snowmoteng from Lighthouse Country.

Strictly speaking, the release schedules of these two films did not collide, because "The Grand Master 2" was not approved to be released in China at all, and there was no need to wait for the Lunar New Year holiday.

The memory of the Internet is short-lived. I can't remember what Fan Wenqiang has done, but someone will always remember it.Fan Wenqiang has not yet come out of the ban, and the movie he starred in still wants to be released in China?

Therefore, "The Grandmaster 2" did not participate in the Chinese New Year box office competition in Huaguo, but was released overseas in time for Christmas, more than a month earlier than "Ip Man".By the time "Ip Man" was released, it had already entered a period of weak box office growth, and the two were perfectly staggered.

However, since both are Kung Fu movies, and the schedule is so close, the domestic and foreign media naturally want to compare the two of them together.

It's nothing more than changing to a turn-based system. You finish fighting me first before making moves.

In the first part of "The Grand Master", because of the heroine's J-style makeup, and the conversion of Taoist temples into Taoist temples, Taoist priests became warriors, and many other things that confused the culture of Huaguo J, they were criticized by fans.

The "Grandmaster 2" released this year has indeed paid more attention to this aspect.

At least it has successfully distinguished the cultures of the Hua Kingdom and the J Country, and has made great progress.

In terms of plot content, it continues the plot of the previous work. The master (played by Fan Wenqiang), who had already retired, had to return to the arena due to various reasons for successive provocations, and then there were various arenas and street fights.

Fan Wenqiang's martial arts scenes still maintain a consistent standard, which is almost the same as when he was in Tomahawk Pictures, and it is very guaranteed.But from another perspective, there has been no progress, and I have been living on my laurels, and there are only so many routines going back and forth.

One or two is okay, but Fan Wenqiang has filmed seven or eight kung fu movies since his debut, either as a leading role or a supporting role, and the audience feels the same in each play.And compared to other action stars, kung fu may be his specialty, but compared to kung fu stars like Han Lan, he actually doesn't have very distinctive personal characteristics.

When it comes to Han Lan's kung fu, many movie fans know that he can really fight!If you can fight in the movie, you can still fight in the ring!This is very unique, and ordinary action actors can't do it.And because it can really be played, the effect played in the movie is very professional. Anyway, the audience can brainstorm extra points.

What about Fan Wenqiang?Played pretty well...and then gone?

The audience will get tired of watching too much.

In addition, the various interpretations of kung fu in "The Grand Master 2" still continue the previous set of theories, so even if improvements are made in the way of serving Huadao, the word-of-mouth of the movie is not better than that of the previous generation, and finally stabilized at scored 78 points.

As for the box office, the global box office in the first month was 31 billion knives. Compared with the investment of 8000 million knives in the film, this box office performance has already made a profit, and there will be more than half a month or even a month of turnover in the follow-up, and it can earn a little more.

But in terms of Snow Mortem and Bright's expectations and effects on it, it has not been achieved.

Many movie fans on the Internet, especially Chinese movie fans, are still very dissatisfied with it, and still cannot accept their nationalization of kung fu.

And the terrible thing is that the trailers of its competitor "Ip Man" have been released so far, and the effect is very good, which has already attracted praise from many kung fu fans.If this momentum continues, if the reputation of "Ip Man" does not collapse after its release, it will be "The Grandmaster 2" that collapses!

……

"Damn..."

Brett watched Han Lan's name written in the screenwriter's position in the "Ip Man" trailer, and even a gentleman like him couldn't help but swear.

Han Lan didn't star in this movie, not even a cameo, but being in charge of the screenwriting is already an insurance policy for this movie.

If nothing else, word of mouth is unlikely to collapse.

"At first, I thought they were all Kung Fu stars. Although Fan Wenqiang's performance was inferior, he could still make up for it in other ways. But now it seems that Han Lan's ability really cannot be replaced by Fan Wenqiang." Bright really It's a headache.

Fan Wenqiang's performance can't be said to be bad, but it just can't reach the level he wants.

Han Lan's greatness is not because he can fight, but because of his unique understanding of Kung Fu movies, which Fan Wenqiang is far from reaching.Before meeting Han Lan, he was just a low-level stuntman and group performer, and he only had such a foundation after studying with Han Lan for a period of time.It is too difficult for him to direct a kung fu movie that can match the level of "Fearless"!

"How's the connection with Qi Shan?" Brett asked again.

The assistant shook his head: "I still refused. Even though we offered five times the conditions of Tomahawk Films, he didn't agree. There are other core members too, and only some insignificant members can be recruited."

Brett rubbed his head.

If "Fearless" is the credit of Han Lan, then the new director Qi Shan will play an increasingly important role in Tomahawk Pictures' subsequent kung fu movies.

If Qi Shan can also be recruited, Qi Shang and Fan Wenqiang can basically make up for Snow Morteng's disadvantage in the field of kung fu movies.

Unfortunately, I still can't dig it out.

Even the martial arts director and producer of "Ip Man" couldn't be found.

"I don't agree with the five times the treatment. What are they going to stay in Tomahawk Pictures? A dream?"

Brett murmured and looked up at the assistant.

The assistant didn't deny his guess, and then showed some ruthlessness in his eyes: "Mr. Bright, how about..."

Before he could finish speaking, Bright raised his hand to deny it: "There is a lot of value on Tomahawk Pictures over there. If our methods are too dirty, they will be angered. If we turn around and directly ban all our artists and products from entering the Huaguo market, the loss outweighs the gain." Yes. At this stage, they are in full swing and very courageous, so there is no need to provoke them."

"Yes."

"Continue to maintain the kung fu movies. Anyway, Han Lan has no interest in making kung fu movies now. I have seen that he has not participated in several kung fu movies. If he is only compared with Fan Wenlong, Fan Wenqiang is still enough. Then... put j Let’s dig out the kung fu of J country and fry it again. It also comes from the mysterious oriental kung fu. Can firmly grasp this piece of cake. Martial arts and ninjas in country J have been one of the labels of the holy land of movies a few years ago. With successful Western-style interpretations, audiences can also accept the martial arts movie ninjas made by the people of Lighthouse Movies are easier to control than Huaguo's kung fu."

"clear."

Chapter 0858 too close to the sky

A private plane named "Rongyan Lovely" flew from Lin'an to Jiangcheng.

Sitting opposite Han Yiping, Liu Rong said with a smile, "Uncle Han, I'm sorry to trouble you this year."

Han Yiping waved his hand: "What does the family say is troublesome or not? When encountering such a thing, it is right for the elders to help you take care of the place. Don't worry about Encore's mother's affairs. With you, Uncle Han Now, nothing can go wrong."

Liu Rong nodded reassuringly. Compared with Han Lan, Han Yiping was obviously much more stable and reliable.

After all, body type is there.

Then Liu Rong smiled and looked at Tan Lun, who was drinking tea next to Han Yiping: "Mr. Tan, why don't you make a fortune for me?"

Tan Lun took a sip of tea and glanced at him.

This time when I met the parents, he was an outsider and didn't get involved.He was on this plane mainly just to drop by.

Liu Rong's private plane took off from Lin'an, and after arriving in Jiangcheng, he picked up An Keke's mother and daughter and then went to Yanjing for the New Year.Tan Lun happened to be going back to Yanjing to find his younger brother Su Yuanming to celebrate the New Year together, so he came up.

Save money on a plane ticket.

As for why Liu Rong didn't fly directly to Yanjing, and let Enkeke's mother and daughter go to Yanjing by civil aviation, one reason is to show sincerity in front of the future mother-in-law; Get in the way.

Since Tan Lun was following the wind, it was naturally difficult to refuse, and he said flickeringly: "Since An Keke's mother is willing to have a meal with the two families, it means that there is still something to be done about this matter, and the fate between you two continues, and Boss Han will come forward to help you in person, so let’s not be far away.”

Liu Rong smiled, and said embarrassingly: "Old Tan, I didn't ask you to do the math, I wanted you to do the math for me. You said that I had a boy and a girl in the first birth with Enkeke? How should I choose?" Good name?"

"Pfft~" Han Yiping and Tan Lun drank their tea and spit it out.

"You brat, you haven't written off your marriage yet, and you're already thinking about your children?" Han Yiping scolded.
