The Golden Age of China Entertainment

As the movie became popular, controversy also followed. Many media began to criticize the negative impact of the movie. Even Jin Daxia commented that this movie would teach children badly.

After all, in the early years when entertainment was relatively poor, teenagers who were in the rebellious period had not yet established their social experience and independent thinking ability, and such movies would indeed have a certain adverse effect on them.

Although it has only been released for three days, it is said that some young people have begun to imitate the words and deeds of the characters in it. The reason why young people imitate is mainly because the content of the movie is just suitable for them who are young and frivolous. "If you don't agree with one word, you will do it."

What's more serious is that for some young people who are doing nothing in today's society, because of the so-called righteousness, brotherhood, causing trouble everywhere, they set an example and drive a trend of chaotic society, so they are not wronged.

Yi Qing naturally watched this series of movies in her previous life. In fact, it can be said that almost every boy born in the 80s can't get around the word when he grows up.

At that time, some people might not know who Zheng Yijian was, but the name of the leader of Causeway Bay, Chen Haonan, was familiar to almost every boy. This Hong Kong film that was circulated in the underground video hall became popular all over the country without knowing it.

From 1995 to 2000, whether you were 5 years old or 15 years old, when you just opened your eyes to understand the world, when you rebelled and sought freedom, seeing this group of righteous, happy and enmity teenagers, there is something for everyone. What can be done to stop the adrenaline rush?

Although basically no parent would agree with this sentence, the saying "life without reading is incomplete" was not unfounded at the time.

In fact, Yi Qing does not fully agree with what some people think is a typical "anti-hero", because what it conveys is still an orthodox value concept, and what is controversial is only their attitude towards life and their identities in the play.

Many people regard misleading teenagers as the biggest crime. In fact, there is no need to be so nervous.

Speaking of it, it's just an entertainment film about gangsters.

From this point of view, the main plot line of the movie is a little similar to that of a young man growing up in a gang. A businessman devoted to political power.

The difference is that Michael Corleone had his family support him from the very beginning, while Chen Haonan and Shan Ji climbed up step by step from the bottom. In this sense, it is even more typical.

Of course, in terms of the quality, depth and integrity of the film itself, it is far from being comparable to the greatest film in film history.But only from the perspective of Xiangjiang film history, it must be an important part.

Many people in the previous life believed that it changed the production method of Xiangjiang gangster movies and opened a new era of Xiangjiang movies, and then Du Qifeng pushed it to the top and sparked a new wave of gangster movies.

But in Yi Qing's view, the change of Xiangjiang Hei gang movies has already started, and it can even be said that it has been completed.

In the past, when mentioning Xiangjiang Hei Gang movies, only one name could come to people’s minds——Zhou Runfa, or even more accurately, Xiao Ma, with sunglasses, double guns, and flying pigeons, said to be black . Gang movies, it is better to say that they are action movies, gunfight movies, and gambling movies.

Later, the audience had already developed aesthetic fatigue from the hot-blooded gun battle, and Wu Yusen and Zhou Runfa left one after another, which also forced Xiangjiang Films to make changes. It needed new genres, new choices, and new excitement.

So director Liu Weiqiang seized this opportunity, and he brought the entire Xiangjiang movie out of the trough with two gangster epics.

There are no new stories, but those stories of grievances and hatreds that have been told countless times by the predecessors.There is no breakthrough in the shaping of the characters. There are not many three-dimensional characters, and most of them lack development. When you look closely, this is even the flaw.The reason why it was able to achieve an epic level of word-of-mouth among the audience, in addition to successful viral marketing, mainly lies in two changes.

The first is that the character setting is closer to the audience. In previous gangster films, most of the attention was focused on the boss and the high-level people around him. The creators have always regarded this sense of alienation as a source of beauty, just like a foreign painting. Stimulation satisfies the curiosity and desire of the audience.But go in the opposite direction, Pheasant and Haonan may live across from your house, what happened to them may be the future of your children, tremble, parents!Negative social effects have aroused the rebellion and curiosity of teenagers. Yes, they are the main box office contributors.

The second is the realistic style of fighting scenes. In the 80s, the Xiangjiang film industry was dominated by Wu Yusen and his "black violence aesthetics". The familiar scenes are replayed again. Sunglasses, double guns, and flying pigeons are always like this. set.How can guns be so easy to deal with? There are still gun battles on the street. There are hundreds of bullets in a gun, and the shot only hits the ground, and the protagonist will never be able to hit it.wake up!To change this form of romanticism, a group of street gangsters fight in groups, punching to the flesh, bloody, this is the war of men.

Therefore, for many audiences, no matter what, whether they evaluate it positively or negatively, it cannot change that this is an epic work, because it is the blood that many people will never return and cannot be replaced. youth.

Chapter 493 Crisis Public Relations

When Shi Nansheng came to Yongsheng with the plan and script outline given by Yi Qing, the Xiang family brothers were still a little hesitant. Don’t think that their family does this, but it was made into a movie, and it was filmed in such an almost realistic way. , The two brothers have no idea.

Xiang Shi is a smart man. Although being in the gangsters is good, but as the society becomes more and more stable, and 97 Xiangjiang is about to return to the motherland, they are also eager to wash their hands and go ashore.

If that day really comes, and the hat of a club boss is still on his head, I'm afraid it will be light to settle accounts after autumn, maybe just like those old-timers in the club, they will be taken care of without anyone noticing. .

But after reading the script written by someone from Orange Sky Entertainment using Yi Qing's outline, Xiang Shi was still moved. This is obviously a theme that has never been seen before, and the story is not entirely about fighting and killing. kill.

For example, Chen Haonan's leading brother, he once sighed, "If you are a young and Dangerous boy, whoever does not step into prison with one foot, and step into hell with the other. There is no tomorrow for today."

In the end, the handsome brother was murdered by his enemy Liang Kun. Although the story portrayed him as a positive character, but in the process of his ascending to power, he did not know how many people he killed and how many laws he committed. Retribution, bad cycle.

For those young people at the bottom of Hong Kong society, it can be regarded as a warning. Young and Dangerous people seem to be beautiful, but in fact who is not born today and dies tomorrow.

For this script, Xiang Shi finally decided to take a gamble. It turned out that he was right. "Young and Dangerous in the Jianghu" was released for only three days, and the box office exceeded 500 million. If it wasn't for Orange Sky Entertainment The "Gambling Saint" gem is ahead, maybe today's box office champion can be won by "Young and Dangerous".

"Mr. Yi, we two brothers would like to offer you a toast. This cooperation is a pleasure. Next, I hope to have another chance to cooperate with Mr. Yi!"

Yi Qing didn't refuse. Although the Xiang family brothers were out of the way, they had a pretty good reputation among gangsters. In his previous life, Yi Qing had never heard of any bad things the two brothers did. Be well behaved, even some actors and directors offended the big brother Jianghu, and the two brothers helped to settle it. In short, we can make friends.

"Mr. Xiang, you two are very polite. If you want to cooperate, I also wish for it. I believe I have read the plan for the two of you before. I plan to make a series of this theme. In addition, there are also extra episodes that can be filmed. Regarding specific cooperation matters, Manager Shi will come and discuss with you in detail!"

Yi Qing knows that "Young and Dangerous" makes money, but a movie with this theme must not be branded as Orange Sky Entertainment. In the future, Orange Sky Entertainment will definitely go north. With this imprint, it's hard to say.

Yongsheng didn't have any scruples here, since he was in this line of business, so it's no big deal for his family to take pictures of their own affairs.

Xiang Shi was overjoyed when he heard that, of course he knew that this was a series, but there was no script outline behind it, and the copyright of this theme was under the name of Orange Sky Entertainment, so they couldn't make it even if they wanted to.

Of course, if other companies hold the copyright of Young and Dangerous, they can ignore it, find a screenwriter to continue the story, and just start filming.

However, Orange Sky Entertainment can't do it. Orange Sky Entertainment holds more than 90 theater chains in Xiangjiang, and Yi Qing has a background in the mainland. They really dare not offend.

"Mr. Yi, you are willing to take care of our two brothers. Let Xiang Shi put a word here. In the future, if Mr. Yi has any problems in Xiangjiang, you can come to me. Xiang Shi will do his best no matter what happens!"

Yi Qing smiled and waved his hand, "Mr. Xiang, you are more polite. Since we are friends, we will work together to make money. We want to be happy. If you like it, it will be far away!"

Yi Qing did have something to help Xiang Shi, but there was no need to say it at all. Since Xiang Shi knew that he had arrived in Xiangjiang, he naturally knew about Akina Nakamori. Now that he knew about Akina Nakamori, he should also know what to do next.

After chatting for a while, Xiang Shi whispered a few words to Xiang Shisan, nodded to Shisan, stood up, pleaded guilty to Yi Qing, and went out. When he came back, there were a few young people behind him.

Yi Qing looked over and couldn't help laughing. Chen Haonan, Pheasant, Datianer, Chaopi, Foreskin, Liangkun, Jiang Tiansheng, and Xiaoba, it seems that today is Hong Xing's celebration meeting.

"Hurry up and call someone, this is the big boss of Orange Sky Entertainment, Mr. Yi!"

Hearing this, a group of young people hurriedly bowed and said hello, "Mr. Yi!"

When they were filming, they all heard about the big boss of Orange Sky Entertainment, but this big boss was very mysterious and never showed his face from the beginning to the end. They just heard that the idea of ​​this script was the boss of Orange Sky Entertainment. which provided.

Before filming this movie, they were not young actors of tvb, but backup dancers, students, and the fame of all of them combined may not be as famous as Zeng Huaqian, who played the stuttering Zeng Huaqian.

With the release of this movie, they can be said to have become popular overnight. Now, except Zheng Yijian, Zeng Huaqian, and Ren Dahua's contracts are still in TVB, everyone else has been signed by Yongsheng Entertainment and officially entered the entertainment circle.

Speaking of which, Yi Qing is also their bole, so when they heard that the young man in front of him was the big boss of Orange Sky Entertainment, although he was surprised by Yi Qing's age, he still bowed respectfully and said hello.

At the beginning, Yi Qing was only planning the case, and casually mentioned the names of these people. He didn't expect that the Xiang family brothers were really powerful. They could even find Zhu Yongtang, Xie Tianhua, and Lin Xiaofeng, who were still in school. to.

"Ajian, and you, speaking of it, Mr. Yi is your bole, why don't you come over to toast!"

Zheng Yijian and the others, including Zeng Huaqian, didn't hold back at all when they heard the words. They stepped forward one after another, poured wine and respected Yi Qing. Vanity Fair in the entertainment industry, if you want to hold it and keep it reserved, you will never be able to stand out in this life .

Yi Qing smiled and clinked glasses with each of them, and when it was Ren Dahua's turn, he jokingly said, "Mr. Jiang from Hongxing toasted me, I can't afford it!"

Ren Dahua was taken aback, seeing Yi Qing smiling, he thought he was joking, and quickly said, "In front of Mr. Yi, I dare not."

Yi Qing clinked glasses with him, and drank the wine in one gulp.

This Ren Dahua is not an ordinary person. Although he himself is just a young TVB actor, he is still far from being a superstar, but he has a big brother, which is not easy.

Ren Darong, the second-in-command of the Xiangjiang Police Department, is a vigilante boss who even wants to give face to the Xiang family brothers.

After drinking, Xiang Shisan planned to take them out, but Yi Qing suddenly thought of something, and stopped everyone.
