Liu Qingshan's transcendent force value in reality does exist, but this ability cannot be transferred to the movie because he plays Ip Man instead of Liu Qingshan.
Therefore, action design that does not violate the laws of physics is the easiest way to create a sense of immersion in the audience.
Therefore, using the strength of the body to counter-jointly subdue the enemy and avoid attacks from behind has become a key expression in the action design, and it is also the reason why the fights in the film are exciting.
As a digression, the action design of the movie focuses on beauty and viewing, rather than authenticity.
In real life, if Ip Man were to be attacked by ten strong men from a small island country, the possibility of winning would be basically less than or equal to the possibility of the author defeating Tyson (after all, I can call the police).
But in the movie, Ip Man did it, and he fought beautifully. From the author's point of view, the "Ip Man" series can be regarded as one of the most beautiful action designs among traditional Chinese martial arts movies. This is enough, you say Woolen cloth?
After the film ended, the audience did not get up, but were waiting for the ending song.
Sure enough, as the subtitles unfolded, the familiar yet unfamiliar melody just appeared, attracting cheers from the audience.
Many girls who had been crying at the end of the movie suddenly jumped up from their seats and invariably let out distorted roars.
It is precisely because of the appearance of this song, which perfectly connects with the surging feeling brought by the film, that girls who usually seem quiet can reach their peak.
This song is really hot, even the big guys here can't hide their appreciation for it.
It is important to mention that the ending song "Kilin" did not appear in the Chinese version. This was Liu Qingshan's temporary idea, and he only came up with the idea on the plane coming to Los Angeles.
However, this does not affect subsequent modifications. After all, it is just the ending song. It only appears when the credits roll and does not need to be submitted for approval again.
It was also under this melody that Liu Qingshan and other main creators were also invited to the stage. It was a common procedure to accept questions from the media on the spot.
They stood in a row on the stage. Liu Qingshan even refused to stand in the C position, but gave up his position to two old artists, Ren Jiahua and Hong Dabao.
These two people have cooperated with him many times, know his personality in this aspect, and don't worry too much about this issue.
Since the questions and answers section all have an outline, the whole process is not that exciting, but it is also full of laughter.
Especially when talking about some filming behind-the-scenes, the most active person is Yam Jiahua, who gives people the most stable impression.
Moreover, he has almost watched Liu Qingshan grow up, and is more familiar with him than Chen Long, who first used him.
Therefore, there is a deep personal relationship between the two people, and they do not hide it at all when they reveal their past.
On the contrary, Hong Dabao, who has always been straightforward, only said a few words of thanks and rarely spoke other than that.
Of course Liu Qingshan understood his psychology. Although the crew brought Brother Bao into the crew as an action director, in fact most of the action design came from Liu Qingshan.
The reason why he was so proactive was that he wanted to use his knowledge of later kung fu movies to give him a new direction for the action guidance of Xiangjiang Martial Arts in the future.
However, the other party's status in the industry has long surpassed the stage of being taught by others, so he can only get over it in this way.
However, Hong Da Bao knew this and was still willing to accept the invitation. In fact, he valued that he would have a very important role to play in "Ip Man 2". Joining the set in advance would at least allow him to become more familiar with the crew and the plot.
Of course, it cannot be said that he did nothing in the first film. When it comes to the subtle personnel adjustments or actor positions in Kung Fu movies, Liu Qingshan still has many details to learn.
Therefore, Hong Taibao's advisory role in the first "Ip Man" is no less than that of the Yip brothers.
That evening, the global screening officially began.
Although there are only two screenings in Europe and the United States due to time constraints, the first one has aroused heated reviews on the Internet.
of storm.
Shi Hui gathered all these comments at the first time so that Liu Qingshan could grasp them in time.
He is not worried about the box office in the Chinese market, but he is not too sure about the European and American markets.
But just judging from the comments after the first game, his psychological expectations have been met. .
Of course, the focus of online comments is diverse. Before professional reviews have begun, the comments during this period are basically unguided.
"Kung Fu costumes look much cooler than karate ones."
"Ip Man is the most admirable warrior in the world. I love Ip Man even more than Batman."
"The style of Wing Chun is so beautiful. No wonder Alien chose this subject. He is much better than Bruce Lee. He is a true legend."
"I haven't watched a kung fu movie in more than ten years. After watching this movie, I had goosebumps all over my body from beginning to end. Well done alien!"
"I pity the officer from the small island country. He is better dead than alive, because all his bones have been broken, and every punch he receives is like a car accident!"
"If Wing Chun turns his sleeves white, it means the fight is over. Alien's move is so well designed. I want my mother to buy me a Tang suit tomorrow!"
"Alien is a true kung fu master. With such rich experience in fighting skills, his technical level is unbeatable in reality."
"I'm so sorry for that translator. He was forced to make a living, but later he made the most correct choice for the sake of national dignity!"
"I am a Southeast Asian. I have watched many movies about Chinese people resisting people from small islands since I was a child. Only this one is the closest to realism. There is no exaggeration or contempt, but only the truth of human beings struggling in a harsh environment."
"Alien's movie is going to be popular again. All my classmates went to the theater today. Even if they couldn't get tickets, they were willing to listen to the sound by the window, even though they couldn't understand it at all."
"His left hook and side punch are really great. Are they Alien's signature moves?"
"Go back upstairs. In reality, Alien doesn't need to use any specific moves at all. He can imprison his opponent with just one breath!"
"Oh my god, alien can punch faster than he can talk! Is he God?"
"One of my nieces has booked all the movie tickets for the last week. She came home crying today and told her mother that Alien came to Los Angeles and she wanted to see him every day!"
"The martial arts choreography is incredible. Alien is not only a kung fu master, but also a great artist!"
"I'm sure this "Ip Man" will win an Oscar. If it doesn't award Alien, I will immigrate to China!"
...
Similar discussions are overwhelming on the Internet, and in the blink of an eye, an entire page of comments disappears.
But Liu Qingshan looked at it very carefully. He needed to understand the most authentic voice of the people, so he had deliberately told not to enter the guidance prematurely.
He believes that only by grasping the most common opinions of ordinary viewers can we more accurately grasp the traffic code of the next film.
Of course, in-depth professional comment areas are also being launched one after another.
The evaluations of this part all affirmed at the beginning that his performance was eye-catching, from the original flamboyant hitter to a warrior with Chinese cultural heritage.
This change made professional critics interested in the film. In addition, people were deeply impressed by Wing Chun's bunting.
It’s been a long time since there have been any good films about Chinese martial arts. Chen Long’s films since the 1990s have never been considered martial arts films. I can’t explain why, but I always feel they have some shortcomings.
But the emergence of this film has brought a clear sense of long absence back to these critics.
Liu Qingshan directly ignored some professional comments. He paid more attention to those remarks about the Chinese national spirit.
Fortunately, foreigners’ views on this aspect
The point is unexpectedly close to the same point, that is, the movie wants to convey to the audience more of Ip Man's spirit, the spirit of compatriots suffering, rising up to resist, taking the initiative, and promoting our country's prestige, rather than pure nationalism.
And the characterization is impressive, with almost no bad characters.
The design of the story is also reasonable and tense, and the spirit conveyed by the film is even more inspiring. "Ip Man 1" is undoubtedly the best Chinese kung fu film, and its pattern is much deeper than the early Bruce Lee works.
Of course, the story the movie wants to tell is very old-fashioned. Generally speaking, it is from oppression to resistance. There is nothing new. It is very similar to the story routines of many movies.
However, under the background of "Ip Man 1", this cliché story touched the hearts of the audience, making them empathize and be moved by it.
In addition, many commentators have mentioned that the Chinese do not lack blood, but they have been suppressed for too long and regarded blood as barbaric for too long.
Based on these comments, the only shortcoming is that when watching Chinese movies, especially those from a specific historical period, I feel depressed. They are everywhere, there is no catharsis, there is only endless depression, and I feel very unhappy.
It’s also interesting to read the comments below. The people who replied are mocking the short history of the United States in the past two hundred years.
The country of China has existed for thousands of years. When it was strong, it would fall. Such a richer historical ups and downs are most consistent with reality.
People who feel depressed when watching such films should laugh at their country's shallow history instead of thinking about whether they feel good or not.
When they saw this, Liu Qingshan's people were attending a grand cocktail party held in his honor by the organizer.
To say it was grand is no exaggeration at all. More than 200 people from all walks of life in Hollywood came to the event.
More than half of the eight major film studios were personally led by CEO-level people, and several famous companies that had business dealings with Liu Qingshan also sent people to participate.
In particular, Father Bumi, who was far away in Tianzhu, not only asked his first heir, Kram, to come with his family, but also specially sent a whole container truck of cigarettes and alcohol for the reception.
