Pay attention to film school and film shortage, say goodbye
film school
Vol. 3155
Pai Ye is a veteran Internet University enthusiast. After reading countless films, he also discovered a pattern –
Martial arts type, must copy Tsui Hark.
Comedy genre, must copy Stephen Chow.
As it happens, they are very stylized directors.
So, the consequence of copying is,Learning tigers is not anti-dog…
For example, "Drunk Fist Su Qier".
Recently, there is another person who is not afraid of death.
The target was the classic "Truant Dragon".
What level?
Very embarrassing. Very boring.
Consumer sentiment?
Have you ever thought about it?
What are feelings?
Why can’t anyone copy Stephen Chow’s movies?
Slide down, Pai Ye decrypts it for you.
The New Truant Dragon
The movie starts at the beginningmoneyYeah.
Look at the classic IP.
Cast, get together"Around Xingchi Zhou"…
Luo Jiaying, who plays Detective Cao Dahua (rubbing Wu Mengda’s character name).
Yellow Mountain.
He played Huang Xiaogui in the original "Truant Dragon".
On "The New Truant Dragon"; Next "Truant Dragon"
Huang Yifei.
He is well known to the public for his role as "Big Brother" in "Shaolin Football".
Shaolin Kung Fu is good, really good
The income is really good.
On the line 8 days, the cumulative box office 14.484 million, the cumulative number of people watching 5.943 million.
Yes, Douban score,4.1…
It hurts the audience’s feelings.
Where is the new truant dragon?
There is nothing new.
Synopsis of the story.
In a city in South East Asia, the boss of a crime syndicate was arrested. Company accountant Huang Xiaogui (Huang Yishan, played) was willing to be a tainted witness, but was hunted down and escaped. In order to find him, special police Zhang Hao went undercover to the International Noble School and tried to find Huang Xiaogui by approaching his daughter Huang Ying.
This kind of story,1980sThe Hong Kong police and gangster movies have long been shot badly.
The setting is also difficult to establish.
You see the student played by SWAT Zhang Hao,From the looks of it, he is older than the principal…
The plot is even more incredible…
Approaching Huang Ying was reduced to picking up girls.
And the way is to keep asking the police for money.
From buying a sports car.
To charge the 88888 membership card.
Where does the money come from?
First the police crowdfunded, and laterProvided by a prisoner in a police office.
Why are prisoners still locked up here?
Why did the police respond to unreasonable demands and finally reach the point of death?
It was all crap.
Why do you have to shoot like this?
The only reason Pai Ye could think of was,Imitate Stephen Chow and make nonsense comedies.
There are similar bridges.
For some reason, Zhang Hao suddenly jumped into the swimming pool and fell headfirst, revealing the sign "Water depth 0.4 meters".
For example, Zhang Hao’s international friends and classmates.
Black people are called "Little White", and white people are called "Little Black".
The main creator really wanted to make the audience laugh, but these jokes were separated from the plot, and there was a serious suspicion of making up the numbers. His approach was exactly what Chen Peisi called "stringing candied gourds".
In Pai Ye’s opinion,"The New Truant Dragon" completely misunderstands the meaning of "nonsense comedy".
I really don’t know how Zhou Xingchi would feel when he saw such a work.
We often say "remake film consumption feelings".
What are feelings?
In Pai Ye’s opinion,A good work can withstand time to wash, and the audience’s feelings for it become more and more profound, resulting in feelings…
What’s so great about "Truant Dragon"?
That is, it isA mature work of Stephen Chow’s nonsensical comedy style…
Nonsensical, what do you mean?
To borrow from a particular subject…
Nonsensical, originally a common saying in Guangzhou, Guangdong and other places, which means that a person does and speaks incomprehensibly, without a center, with no clear purpose in his language and behavior, vulgar and casual, and complaining indiscriminately.But not without reason…
During the era of film development in Hong Kong, many people experimented with this style.
Wang Jing specially created "Gambling Saint 2: Street Gambling Saint" for Ge Minhui (a member of the Hong Kong duo "****").
In addition, Wang Jing also promoted Zhang Jiahui and Zhang Weijian, but they were all rejected by the market.
King of a Thousand Kings 2000
"Super School Fighter"
Ultimately, the market chose only Stephen Chow.
Of course, there are reasons for this in terms of appearance and acting skills.
But more importantlyphilosophy…
Stephen Chow made a perfect interpretation in the movie "Truant Dragon".
The first layer, golden partner, collision spark…
Zhou Xingchi’s nonsensical style can be brought to the extreme, and it must be inseparable from the golden supporting role Wu Mengda.
Wu Mengda said in an interview that the company made "He Came From the Jianghu".
Mr. Chow and Mr. Wu often pretended to date couples at night in order to eavesdrop on their conversations and find inspiration, which became the origin of the so-called "nonsense show."
In "Truant Dragon", there are many such wonderful moments.
For example, when Zhou Xingxing and Cao Dahua were chatting, the two men suddenly kissed.
For example, Zhou Xingxing revealed his identity to his teacher, He Min (played by Zhang Min).
Cao Dahua was worried, and Zhou Xingxing said casually, "You go and kill her."
Cao Dahua on the side immediately revealedA funny, hideous expression…
On the second level, no matter how outrageous the actor’s behavior is, it must be meaningful.
Let’s talk about Zhou Xingxing’s appearance.
A rescue operation, he was the captain.
The team rushed out one by one, but he was dripping eye drops…
Deploying a course of action, he gestured,Directly stun teammates…
Later, the team’s formation was completely messed up.
In desperation, during a duel with his opponent, he left his empty gun as a cover, shuttled up and down the building, and saved the hostages with one person.
Zhou Xingxing makes people around him puzzled whether he talks or does things.
We laugh because of this intensecontrast…
And all of this is not for nothing, it all points to a point…
Zhou Xingxing’s personality: outstanding personal ability, but no leadership or cooperative spirit…
There is a deeper meaning.
Stephen Chow’s comedy is just an appearance. He blends jokes with situations to explore people’s plight or to expose or criticize certain social realities…
Remember the story of "Truant Dragon"?
Zhou Xingxing, a man who became a police officer because he hated studying, was sent to the school as an undercover agent to search for the missing gun of kindness from his boss.
Therefore, Zhou Xingxing was in great pain.
He sees the school as a prison…
In his eyes, students are punished for being late, just like a **********.
The playground is no different from the **********.
In the classroom, but fantasizing about being imprisoned, he sang "Tears behind bars".
And, reflections on school education.
Overbearing teachers can make students lose interest in learning.
In the movie, the character of He Min is not just one of the elements of love.
She represents Zhou Xingxing’s yearning for an ideal education.
So you see.
Stephen Chow’s comedy is based on real people, real environments, and in-depth social observation…
On the contrary, those nonsensical jokes are the embellishments that grow naturally and are the introductions that pull the audience into the world of his films…
Such works are often read and updated.
Only then can we go through the washing of time and become an immortal classic.
And a bunch of movies that imitate Stephen Chow haven’t even touched the surface yet.
Watch "The New Truant Dragon" again.
The jokes came out of thin air.
Character behavior, grandiose.
Especially the female characters in it, their role is only to satisfy the obscene YY of some male characters.
Not to mention the profound meaning.
Every time we look at a similar shoddy copy, we have this feeling: "Look at the original and wash your eyes."
Consumer sentiment is shameful.
But there was something even scarier.If lazy creativity can still make money, it is bound to attract more followers…
As a consequence, bad money drives out good money.
Pai Ye insisted.
Feelings should not be used for consumption, but for nourishment…
In every era, there should be people who are willing to work hard on the road of creation and overcome obstacles.
To be able to create such a work: decades later, it will be regarded as a classic, shrouded in a halo of feelings.
No one can be second to Stephen Chow.
However, someone will definitely become the number one xx.
