Ceng Zhiwei Investment Hotel

The funniest issue of No One to Protect Tonight is undoubtedly a trip to Ceng Zhiwei.

At first, Ceng Zhiwei told y.n. ho with a face of seriousness:

During the filming, Mr Cai () really taught me a lot.

I still remember it in my heart until I was on a business trip today. Yes:

Select a producer. James ·J·s· Wang doesn't know what this means.

It turns out that Ceng Zhiwei and Cai Lan took photos in Yugoslavia for the first time.

On the way back, Cai Lan was very unhappy and asked:

"Zhiwei, what do you think of this producer?"

"Very diligent," Zhiwei replied.

Cai Lan is not:

"I must change this producer when I go back. No, it's not efficient ... "

Ceng Zhiwei surprised, be outraged by an injustice for the producer:

"He took us to take photos, had dinner, and then sent us back to the hotel. The arrangement is quite thoughtful. "

Cai Lan whispered:

"What's the use of being a producer for three days without asking if we want a woman?"

Everyone here, just understand what Ceng Zhiwei said is a joke.

Except James J.S.Wong, he burst out laughing, choked on the smoke and kept coughing.

I have to admire Ceng Zhiwei's ability to tell jokes.

From beginning to end, the balance is just right.

Ceng Zhiwei continued.

So I'm telling young producers now.

If you are the producer of Foreigner,

People come, all strangers, with different languages.

You must remember to ask this question. (making fun of Cai Lan).

When Ceng Zhiwei was young, he was really a master of all kinds of martial arts.

The jokes are handy and the three sentences are inseparable.

But when it comes to the general trend, development and future of Hong Kong films,

His insights are so incisive that everyone is amazed.

Ni Kuang can not but praise way:

"I really changed my view of Zhiwei. He analyzed things accurately. "

It can be seen that it is no accident that Ceng Zhiwei has been popular until today.

His vision is really different from his accurate understanding of the film market.

However, because of James ·J·s· Wang,

The visit should start with an affair.

02、

Uncle Zhan a face of confusion:

Why did you choose to play football?

Ceng Zhiwei explained that the only thing I inherited was playing football.

Because my father is a football coach, I grew up on the grass.

"So I have feelings for grass. The same is true of Mr. Cai. "

This sudden joke, y.n. ho didn't react.

Ceng Zhiwei see baggage does not ring, explains:

For things like grass and "waves" (in Cantonese, balls),

Very emotional.

Ni Kuang and Cai Lan laughed from ear to ear,

David Henry Hwang, which has always been famous for its illiteracy,

At the moment in front of Ceng Zhiwei, thinking has been slow to keep up.

Ceng Zhiwei is putting on airs, so I like playing table tennis since I was a child.

Ni Kuang: "Do you play table tennis?"

Zhiwei smiled when he was a child. If you were older, you would play bowling.

Lin Hong finally smiled.

Ceng Zhiwei continues to expose the funny stories that Cai Lan filmed in Yugoslavia.

Can't help but admire:

"He's amazing" (picking up girls)

On one occasion, Ceng Zhiwei and Cai Lan drove to Vienna.

On the way, I met two girls from China, and everyone was very happy.

Cai Lan quickly rolled down the window glass and shouted:

"Hey, miss, can you speak Cantonese?"

The two girls responded in Mandarin:

"Hello, hello"

Cai Lan turned to Ceng Zhiwei and smiled. He can speak Mandarin, and he can do it.

Aside Ceng Zhiwei silly off on the spot, whispered Cai Lan:

What are you doing?

Cai Lan replied naturally and invited them to have dinner together.

Ceng Zhiwei shook his head: They won't come.

Cai Lan excited said:

"Do you know what my outlook on life is? Dare to ask is 50-50 (half chance), and don't ask is 0. "

So did not even ask the name, Cai Lan expressed his purpose in Mandarin:

"We are from Hong Kong and would like to invite you to dinner. Is that okay? "

The two girls looked into the car,

I was filled with joy and stunned when I saw one tall and one short. Nuo Nuo way:

"Sorry, we have to go home."

Cai Lan did not retain:

"Never mind, goodbye" and drove away.

Ceng Zhiwei wondered, why not continue to ask?

Cai Lan smartly said:

"Don't be afraid, there will be opportunities all the way."

03、

So Ceng Zhiwei said that when filming "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" in Yugoslavia,

Although there are many handsome guys in the cast,

Allen, Jackie Chan and some young martial artists.

But Mr. Cai has always had the most girlfriends.

Every time after work, Ceng Zhiwei will be pulled by Cai Lanlan to play:

Come on, I'll take you to meet the girls.

Cai Lan is really great. He can call 80 girls at a time.

It came by bus.

After seeing the girl, Cai Lan asked Zhiwei which one was beautiful.

As a director, Ceng Zhiwei has too many things to do and is a little absent-minded.

Want to spite Cai Lan, and then take this opportunity to slip away.

He pointed to a girl with a boyfriend and said:

"It's beautiful, but people have a girlfriend."

Cai Lan excited again, loudly way:

"The same! Well, you can have a boyfriend, but no, you can't have a boyfriend. "

So Cai Lan went to inquire first.

Not for a while, turn head to Zhiwei shouted:

"Zhiwei, come on, come on."

Ceng Zhiwei was puzzled and didn't know what "line" meant.

Cai Lan pointed to Ceng Zhiwei to introduce the girl first:

"This is our director ..." And quietly told Zhiwei:

"You talk first, I'll deal with that person ..."

Said to drag the girl's boyfriend outside to chat.

Half an hour later, Cai Lan came back.

See Ceng Zhiwei a person drinking, he asked with concern:

Can you handle it?

Ceng Zhiwei replied, I don't know what to say. Just say "hello" and it will be over.

Cai Lan nasty straight stamp, disappointed way:

"How could you do that? If not, I'll help you find it. I will help you find it. "

Y.s. ho and Ni Kuang laughed their heads off, quipped, Cai Lan is really interesting.

Ceng Zhiwei also laughed and said:

"He works really hard."

However, when it comes to shooting and choosing actors,

Ceng Zhiwei a full face of helpless, said:

"As soon as I choose the heroine, I won't go. Although I am a director, I must be a producer. "

Cai Lan aside awkward silence, y.n. ho couldn't help laughing.

Ni Kuang told Cai Lan that if Zhiwei hadn't revealed so much inside information,

I didn't know you had so many tricks.

"It seems that the producers of the film company still have to consider doing it."

Cai Lan slowly way:

"It must be fun, otherwise why are we working so hard?"

I explained it, but I promise,

I haven't touched it, and neither has Zhiwei.

(Whether this statement is true or not is unknown. )

04、

What Ni Kuang is most interested in is the artist's experience of becoming famous.

Why did Ceng Zhiwei change from playing football to being a martial arts player?

Ceng Zhiwei said that the best way to play football is to represent a big international.

I've been thinking for a long time whether I can play so well and whether I have that talent.

Even if there is, it needs very hard training.

Ceng Zhiwei admitted that he couldn't stand the pain.

And I'm not fit, because I play center.

So I told my friend Liu Jialiang that I didn't want to play football.

Liu Jialiang asked Zhiwei what he wanted to do.

Ceng Zhiwei said that he wanted a job where he could travel frequently and go out to play.

Liu Jialiang said, "Be a martial artist and come with us."

Ceng Zhiwei said that he had never learned Kung Fu, so how to become a martial artist.

Liu Jialiang a face of confidence way:

"You can! You used to be a performer, so you can be a martial artist. "

It turns out that you don't have to know kung fu to become a martial artist. The most important thing is to be superior.

It mainly tests people's reaction ability.

Previous martial arts films were all about shooting multiple scenes.

The protagonist slashed with a knife, and the martial artists went up to die one by one.

Where the protagonist's knife is cut, the martial artist will fly out from which direction.

And the protagonist's knife method is not fixed.

A good martial artist is when the protagonist's knife is cut to the left.

When it's your turn, the direction suddenly changes, and you have to react instantly to where you want to fly.

In this way, Liu Jialiang spent three days training Ceng Zhiwei how to deal with it.

And then directly hit Zhang.

Zhangjiaban in Zhang Che is a paradise for martial artists.

Zhang Che only shoots scenes in the afternoon. He is very suitable for martial artists. Anyway, Shaw pays.

For a play that needed 20 martial artists, Zhang Che found 80 people, most of whom were playing cards on the set.

Ceng Zhiwei really leads a comfortable life.

Later, Zhang Che went to Taibei to set up Longbow Company. When he became his own boss, Zhang Che's temperament changed greatly.

Over and over again, only use your own 12 martial artist.

Ceng Zhiwei recalled that it was too bitter to describe.

It was the most painful moment of my life.

"I came back from Taiwan Province Province first."

Ni Kuang interjected, I have a question.

At that time, many people were martial artists. Why are you doing so well?

After listening, a face of meng, said bluntly:

"I'm actually not good at all. Because when I entered the business, those people in Sammo Hung were changing careers ... "

Moreover, the martial arts master at that time was very easy to do.

Now, I must be dead

The previous martial arts films were all from the Bruce Lee era.

It's a play with the protagonist as the core.

After the protagonist's performance, the camera will return to the protagonist, and the protagonist will put on various poss.

It's different now. Now, as soon as the protagonist is finished,

I saw martial artists scratching and stumbling in various positions.

Today is a martial arts master to show the hero's bravery.

Ceng Zhiwei was joking, just a few words.

It shows that the martial arts films after the new wave are essentially different from the previous ones.

Ni Kuang continued to ask, which is Zhiwei's famous work?

Ceng Zhiwei smiled shyly. My first work as a director,

I asked Uncle Ni Kuang to help me write a play called Kicking the Pavilion.

Ni Kuang frightened, trying to recall (actually has completely forgotten):

"Kicking the pavilion was originally directed by you."

Lin Hong quipped aside, you don't even remember that he is a director, you are a man!

"I wrote so many things that I don't remember what I wrote."

Ni Kuang was a little embarrassed by this sudden scene, saying:

"Are you and Jia Liang here to talk about kicking the pavilion?"

Ceng Zhiwei smiled and said, No, I did it for Lorna.

Lowe was supposed to wait for Jackie Chan to come back for filming.

As a result, Jackie Chan just became popular, and the schedule was given to Jiahe.

Lo, wait.

Tell Ceng Zhiwei to be a director. Come on, hand in the script at once.

Ceng Zhiwei thought, faster?

"I only know that there is one person in the Jianghu who is the fastest and can deliver the goods in a week.

As long as you pay first, he can do it. This man is Uncle Ni Kuang. "

Recalling the experience of seeing Ni Kuang for the first time, Ceng Zhiwei said

At that time, Uncle Ni Kuang often shook his hand with a glass and asked:

"Kid, what do you want to shoot?"

Ceng Zhiwei replied: "I want to shoot and kick the pavilion."

Kicking the gym means that someone used to open a martial arts school and put a pair of candles before opening it.

When I lit the candle, I began to be kicked around.

If the owner is knocked down before the candle is burned, the martial arts school will close.

The story of kicking the pavilion has a long history, but there is no distinct character image.

Ceng Zhiwei asked Ni Kuang to add characters.

Ni Kuang glass in hand, smile happily say:

"You are so cute. Let me write it for you."

Ni Kuang hearing this, as if thinking of the past, quickly said:

"I remember that the time when the candle burns is the time of the whole movie, isn't it?"

After a short silence, Ceng Zhiwei whispered to y.n. ho:

"Dead, it seems to be from another play."

Everyone laughed, James J.S.Wong said, too long ago.

Ni Kuang, who wrote thousands of martial arts scripts, finally admitted:

"I forgot."

05、

Y.s. ho suddenly changed the subject and asked:

"What do you think of future Hong Kong films?"

"I think Hong Kong movies can survive forever," Ceng Zhiwei replied optimistically.

Ceng Zhiwei continued.

Because only Hong Kong is not affected by economic and external factors.

Nowhere in the world is the film market like Hong Kong-

Not self-sufficient.

American blockbusters can make a lot of money by selling money in America.

The same is true in Japan, where you can make money by selling money.

But unlike Hong Kong, if Hong Kong films are sold in Hong Kong, it is impossible to recover the cost.

Hong Kong depends on the rest of the world.

Moreover, movies follow the economy.

When the economy is good, movies are not good.

Because everyone is busy, there is no time to go to the movies.

When the economy is bad, movies are better, and everyone stays at home and has nothing to do, so they have to go to the movies for entertainment.

The economy affects the film market, but it will not affect the Hong Kong film market.

Because Hong Kong's film market depends on the rest of the world, there is always a place that will sell.

"Just like today (1989), the outside economy is good, and there are few sales, but Hong Kong's economy is not good, but the market is good. One high and one low, the film is not affected. "

One more thing, Ceng Zhiwei added:

"Hong Kong people are used to accepting anything new."

Therefore, the absorption capacity of Hong Kong people is the fastest.

As long as something new comes out of foreign countries, Hong Kong people can learn it immediately.

After adding something of your own, it will be shown to the world.

This is Hong Kong's greatest advantage.

For example, Ceng Zhiwei,

In the past, the film markets in Hongkong and Taiwan Province Province were similar.

Why is the gap widening now?

1979, Hong Kong movies set off a new wave.

As soon as Xu Anhua and Tsui Hark came in, they eliminated a large number of previous filmmakers.

But why did Hong Kong films reach a peak at that time?

Because the old and the new can be integrated.

"Old people accept new people, and new people listen to old people."

Old people have rich experience and audience tastes.

Newcomers have plenty of technology and new shooting techniques.

When the old and the new are combined, the newest things are produced.

Taiwan Province movies, on the other hand, can't integrate the old and the new.

The new school despises the old school, and the old school ignores the new school. They often quarrel.

Not if we put Hong Kong aside. Hong Kong people are best at compromise. Anything will do as long as it can sell money.

"This is the best for Hong Kong people."

Ceng Zhiwei's analysis of Hong Kong films is too accurate.

Although today's Hong Kong movies are no longer brilliant,

But compared with more than ten years ago, it has made great progress when it first entered the mainland market.

In addition, Ceng Zhiwei's film view is also useful for China films today.

Movies need compromise.

Blindly high and low will only ruin the future.
