Who has seen the photo shoot? There are Fang Zuming, Nana, Nicholas Tse, and many others who imitate Jay Chou.

I've seen it too, but what do you want to ask?

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the world was in chaos. Black-and-white martial arts experts, a security guard, an escort and a thief all gathered in Beijing for Mao Kaiguo's treasure map, while Ye He Changgong (), the first expert outside the customs, and Mingyuexin (), a Ryukyu ninja, came to Beijing for different purposes. All the masters fought for the treasure map from the palace to the border town, and the treasure map suddenly disappeared. In order to hide their identity and find the treasure map conveniently, Ye Hechang Gong and Mingyuexin pretended to be husband and wife as innkeepers, and other masters also opened their own stores. But master Xu Sanguan (Fang Zuming), the landlord of the town, doesn't know much about that small piece of land, and often bullies all the masters to ask for rent and debts. ...

As for the actors, Wei Junzi told reporters that Hong Kong artist Fang Zuming will play a scholar Xu Sanguan, who is the landlord of several masters. After collecting the rent, the adopted daughters and female ninjas who fell in love with the Nuzhen masters added a lot of black humor to the treasure-hunting life of the masters. In addition to Fang Zuming, Tsui Hark, Sammo Hung and others may make guest appearances, the actors of the heroes "will be very interesting and unexpected", but Wei Junzi refuses to disclose it now. This is a crazy idea and a bigger stunt, but it must be kept secret now.

Movie highlights

Aspect 1: Pay tribute to Hong Kong classic martial arts movies.

The genre of the film will be martial arts+treasure capture, the theme will be inn+fighting, the background will be Ming history+troubled times, and the style will be comedy+suspense. The film will be told in chapters, incorporating the classic formulas of five famous directors, and each title is a film title. Anyone who is familiar with Hong Kong movies can see the mystery from the main characters.

Aspect 2: Carry out the spoof to the end and build a "dead party"

The biggest attraction of chasing shadows is not only to pay tribute to the classic martial arts, but also to create the first "Dead Party" in history. "Jackie Chan", "Jet Li" and "Andy Lau" appearing in the trailer are all very important supporting roles in the film, also known as "Three Masters". According to reports, all the imitators in the film are the most alike in China at present, and their every move is imitated vividly.

Aspect 3: A gun battle with barren hills as the background pays tribute to the "blood hero"

Behind-the-scenes production is one of the top special effects teams in Asia, and once produced visual effects for forbidden kingdom. The strong Asian style is obviously different from any western film-both the retro tone of the film in the 1980 s and the very modern special effects treatment.

highlight

There is a desert outside the city, and the sword dance is crazy. From the beginning, the film quickly brought the audience into a world of rivers and lakes with swords and shadows. Ye He Changgong and Nalan Hanjiang, two martial arts masters, flew wildly in the desert outside the Great Wall, showing the charm of Hong Kong-style classic martial arts to the fullest, making the audience hold their breath and shout.

Highlights: the top is forbidden to be purple, and the flowers are before the moon. Although this is a costume martial arts comedy, there is no lack of beautiful and touching affection and love. On the chilly eaves, two dream-chasing figures stand in the cold moonlight, and no one knows whether they can find their true love in the vacillating Jianghu years.

Three Longmen Inn, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Collection. There are many experts and dangers in the inn. Tsui Hark's "New Longmen Inn" opened a new era of martial arts movies, and "Chasing the Shadow" reappeared this classic scene, which is not only a tribute to the predecessors, but also an attempt to climb a new peak of martial arts movies.

Four lines of classic, crazy and funny highlights. Xu Sanguan, played by Fang Zuming, and Tang Wei, played by Nana, are in charge of most interesting parts of the film. Many strange lines are likely to be widely circulated among young audiences and become popular expressions in 2009. After watching these clips, many people in the industry can't help sighing that Stephen Chow-style Hong Kong martial arts comedies have finally returned to the film industry.

Actor introduction

Wu Zhenyu decorated Yehe Longbow.

Yeh Heung-bow is a man who bears the enmity of his family and country. In the long process of revenge, he gradually gave up what he thought he wanted to pursue. Na Lanhan, the master of the Qing court, was demoted to be "the best in the world" and has been looking for Ye Heliu's longbow to duel. However, in the duel, Yeh Heung-bow, who had the absolute upper hand, chose to give up because he thought that the so-called "the best in the world" was nothing. Ye He's longbow is even more meaningless to the "treasure of the founding of the country" that Wulin experts are arguing endlessly. Facing the beloved woman, Mingyuexin, although used many times, is painful but willing at heart. Ye He can also play Ma Touqin. Her greatest wish in life is to play a song with Mingyue wholeheartedly.

Wu Peici is decorated with a bright moon heart.

Mingyuexin is a Ryukyu female ninja. Its task is to seize the treasure of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, thus threatening the Ming Dynasty and lifting Ryukyu's status as a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, no matter what kind of blow, Mingyuexin will stick to it, even by hook or by crook: using Ye He's love for himself as a talisman, using King Gu Yue's infatuation for himself to find clues to treasures, and exchanging the affection of his adopted daughter Tang Wei for Xu Sanguan's treasure map. It was not until the last moon letter that I realized that the so-called treasures and tasks are illusions, and only love and affection are real wealth.

Nana plays Tang Wei.

Tang Wei was adopted by Yehe Changgong and Mingyuexin since childhood. On the one hand, she was impressed by the heroism of the two chivalrous men. On the other hand, the discord between Ye He's long bow and Mingyuexin also affects Tang Wei's character: she is careless and prone to lose her temper on the surface, but she is sensitive and fragile inside, longing for affection. Faced with the crazy pursuit of "rich boy" Xu Sanguan, she refused, but was forced to date Xu Sanguan in order to help Mingyuexin find the treasure. She has never been in love, and always has a bad grasp of the temperature and makes a lot of jokes.

Fang Zuming plays Xu Sanguan.

Xu Sanguan is a very rich scholar, who owns real estate in the whole town and often goes abroad to study. Because his father died and returned to town, he did nothing but collect rent everywhere. Even the mayor Gu Yue Wang was very polite to him. Xu through fell in love with Ye He Changgong and Mingyuexin's adopted daughter Tang Wei, and tried to make her happy every day besides collecting rent. With the beginning of the treasure map, Xu Sanguan finally found his goal in life-to help Tang Wei find treasure.

Chasing a photo-about the leading role

Wu Zhenyu, the best actor, directed and performed this time, and his "Space Humor Bridge" will be shown in the film from time to time. During the filming process, the director allowed the actors to play freely on the spot, and several leading actors even threw themselves into it, adding a lot of impromptu humor to the film.

Wu Zhenyu and Wu Peici play the role of Yehe Longbow of Jurchen nationality and Mingyuexin of Japanese female ninja respectively. They pretended to be an "ordinary couple" in a small town and adopted their adopted daughter Tang Wei. A few years later, Tang Wei became a "flower of the town" and was pestered by master Xu Sanguan played by Fang Zuming. Whether it is true or not, the two eventually became "tell the judge." With regard to this lively, intelligent and simple Tang Wei in the play, Wu Zhenyu had a lot of trouble in casting and finally chose Nana. Wu Zhenyu said that apart from Nana's quirks, what she appreciates most is a kind of boldness and true temperament in her bones. "Tang Wei's image is both heroic and unspoiled, which is exactly the same as golden swallow played by Pepe in" Come and have a drink with me ",and Nana's temperament is also very consistent." Dang Hao, another powerful young actor, plays Wang Gu Yue, the mayor of the small town. Dang Hao, who once performed well in Jade Warrior, plays the "rival in love" this time-competing with Ye He, the first master of Jurchen, for the Gu Yue gold favored by the female ninja Mingyuexin, and at the same time shouldering the heavy responsibility of "governing" all the martial arts masters in the town. The part of Xu Sanguan's pursuit of Tang Wei and the part of Gu Yue Wang's pursuit of the moon heart will be the most relaxed and humorous part in the whole movie.

"Chasing the Shadow" earned a good reputation, and the box office curve soared.

Since the costume martial arts comedy Chasing the Shadow was released on July 30th, it has been full of hilarious scenes with many joyful elements. The film's creator even played the slogan "You'll be OUT if you don't watch Chasing the Shadow this summer" and took it all over the country. In the face of the competition of many movies with the same file in summer, Chasing Shadow has obviously gained the upper hand in the word-of-mouth of joy. A "fake star" is a great party, and a version of a superstar is a laundry list. "Fang Zuming suddenly asked," why is this? " Nana kept silent about Sichuan Mandarin and Wu Peici's leg-aching smile. There are many elements in the treasure to pay tribute to the Olympics, and the ending also imitates the song show of Slumdog Millionaire ... As expected, Chasing the Shadow amused all the audience with all kinds of humor. Director Wu Zhenyu took his creative works to all parts of the country for publicity, which was warmly welcomed and sought after by local audiences. There are even enthusiastic netizens who made a funny video specifically for "Chasing Shadows", which has a very high click-through rate on various video websites.

How many people need to chase the shadow is the key.

First of all, the script is piled up with words, which is very abstract in itself, and many adjectives are not very intuitive. As a director, I naturally want to achieve it through my own understanding. I think it's so hot in summer that everyone can treat "Chasing the Shadow" as soda, just use it to get comfortable. The more people who need comfort, the better the box office will be.

Wu Zhenyu directed and acted "Chasing the Shadow" to play the shanzhai martial arts.

Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Andy Lau are all shanzhai. The highly simulated all-star cast makes the movie Chasing the Shadow (from September 1 1, China Digital Interactive TV is available: Home Theater-Comedy) unique. Among them, the shanzhai versions of Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Andy Lau account for almost 90% of the jokes brought by these three characters.

The film captures the characteristics of Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Andy Lau to make jokes: "Andy Lau" sings a duet, "Jackie Chan" sells four Tang suits, "Jet Li" tells everyone that the desert will encounter a tsunami, sells his own sheepskin lifebuoy, and the unclear "Jay Chou" bursts Jay Chou's mantra in turn ... all these make the audience laugh.
