Chapter 126, Teacher Yu, I’m here to “learn”

"Does it look good?"

After leaving the cinema, Lu Bu asked Yu Feihong's point of view. In fact, he could draw a conclusion from Liu Liang and Yu Xiaoli who were sitting next to him just now, yawning and dozing off.

"How should I put it?" Yu Feihong was confused. After thinking for a while, he said: "It is a good movie. It is top-notch in terms of character modeling, special effects scenes, and theme conception."

In terms of special effects for "The Legend of Shushan", Xu Krypton specially hired four Hollywood computer stunt companies to help out. It took half a year to complete and cost more than 40 million Hong Kong dollars.

In 2001, only Mr. Xu could spend so much money on special effects.

Moreover, this also caused the shooting budget to be exceeded again and again, reaching an astonishing 90 million Hong Kong dollars.

"But..." Yu Feihong's evaluation took a turn, saying: "The whole movie is rather dark, and also, from some aspects, this movie pays more attention to freehand brushwork, and other aspects are just touched upon. At the end of the day, these are not very friendly to moviegoers."

She feels that there is nothing particularly attractive about the plot. It can only be said to be quite satisfactory. There is the love between Gu Yue and Xuantian Zong, the friendship between Xuantian Zong and Dan Chenzi, immortal magic and Taoism, and human beings... ...Overall, the plot that a fairy tale drama should have is all there.

But there are also obvious shortcomings, that is, I want to tell the story of Shushan from the three aspects of immortals, demons, and humans. However, in terms of human beings, the plot is too little. The mortal general played by Zhang Ziyi is a dispensable character, but The plot of gaining the spiritual power to defeat the Blood Demon was forcibly added.

To sum up, the plot is a bit hollow, the special effects are too flashy and take over the spotlight. 500 years of events condensed into 100 minutes cannot be explained clearly at all.

Lu Bu had this feeling when he was acting.

However, Xu Krypton has his own ideas, and all the actors can only cooperate with him.

At that time, no one dared to easily draw conclusions about whether the results were good or not.

"Then, Teacher Yu, please comment on my performance in the film." Lu Bu said with squinted eyes.

"If I say something you don't like to hear, don't be upset." Yu Feihong took the vaccination first.

"Am I such a petty person?" Lu Bu said boldly.

"There are no highlights. It is the lowest among all the roles you have played." Yu Feihong said frankly.

"Is it so bad?" Lu Bu dug at the corners of his eyes, his expression slightly embarrassed.

"It's not that your acting is bad, it's that the character itself is not outstanding. After watching the entire film, I personally feel that the outstanding ones are Dan Chenzi played by Louis Koo and Red Corpse played by Lin Xilei." Yu Feihong gave his own explanation.

"Heroes think alike." Lu Bu also thinks so.

A bad premonition came over me, this movie won't make a splash, right?

The cost of 90 million Hong Kong dollars, according to the conventional sharing method, the box office must be more than three times the cost to be able to recover, that is, there must be a box office of 270 million Hong Kong dollars.

Last year, the mainland box office champion was "Life and Death" with 120 million RMB, the Hong Kong box office champion was "A Man and a Widow" with 35.21 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Baodao Province box office champion was "Mission: Impossible 2" with 32.3 million RMB. Even if the box office champions of the three places are In terms of box office, it is far from HK$270 million.

However, this has nothing to do with Lu Bu, and he has no share in the losses or profits.

Return to the hotel.

In the middle of the night, he quietly came to Yu Feihong's room.

"What are you doing here?"

"Teacher Yu, I'm here to 'learn'."

Tianya Community:

"Is there a plot? There doesn't seem to be, but the special effects are really great."

"A good bad movie has obvious advantages and disadvantages. The special effects are very imaginative, and there are all kinds of flying in the air, but the plot is inexplicable. Gay friends kill gay friends, and the apprentice picks up the master. Is this a fantasy martial arts?"

"The look of Cecilia Cheung Gu Yue is completely imitated by Lin Qingxia in the 1983 version of "The New Shushan Swordsman", and she loses a lot in comparison."

…

Beijing Film News:

"Twenty-year-old Cecilia Cheung is so beautiful. Is she Lu Bu? Are you here to play with Zhang Ziyi?"

"Xu Krypton's most gorgeous work in many years has almost no narrative. There is some imagination, but he uses all kinds of filming techniques and computer stunts without restraint to bring all kinds of unimaginable tricks to the screen. It's more or less a blur. I can’t help but be immersed in the magnificent fantasy I created.”

"After reading it, I couldn't help but sigh, when people run out of talents, where did that talented old man Xu go?"

…

Youth Film and Television Weekly:

"Tsu Hark showed off new technology and was a bit lost."

"Plot aside, the scenery in the film can be said to be thousands of miles in the sky, with swords flying across the sky."

"Old Monster Xu's legendary imagination is really admirable, but his shortcomings are also obvious. He is all weird and weird, and everyone talks in his own way. It is a pity that he is so bad."

…

That's right, word of mouth took the lead.

No one would have thought that this sentimental work, on which Mr. Xu’s hard work and high hopes were placed, would encounter a failure.

Perhaps Xu Krypton’s film concepts were far ahead of the times. In an era when the concept of fantasy had not yet been formed, he had already put fantasy movies on the screen.

Only Xu Krypton understands it, the audience does not understand, and neither does the market.

Lu Bu wasn't affected too much, after all, he was ranked among the third and fourth male actors in the film.

Ekin Cheng and Louis Koo were so influential that they were directly labeled as the "Kings of Bad Movies".

In fact, the pounce has little to do with them, there was no problem with their performance.

There is no way, after a play is released, whether it is a good review or a bad review, the lead actor has to bear it.

More than two years after his debut, Lu Bu's two attempts in the film industry did not cause much splash.

There's no rush, let's run the TV industry well first.

No, he has already gone to Huairou, Yanjing, to join the crew of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword".

When the cast of this drama was announced a while ago, it really surprised Jin Yong fans.

The kind-hearted and generous Zhang Wuji is played by Lu Bu, who is in full swing; the brilliant little Tao Hong plays Ji Xiaofu, who mainly plays sad dramas; Zhang Tielin, who takes off his imperial robe, plays the role of Yang Xiao this time, and Zhang Guoli becomes the monk Cheng Kun after a private visit; Fat He Shen Wanggang was upgraded to the seventh prince of the Yuan Dynasty; Liang Tian also seriously played a small role in the play as the miracle doctor Hu Qingniu...

Today, in the first meeting of the actors, everyone's eyes fell on Lu Bu.

The reason for this is that no matter where he appears with anyone, others will always pay attention to him first, or even only to him.

This is his unique charm.

"Abu!"

The playful Jia Jingwen patted Lu Bu's left shoulder from behind, and then quickly hid to the right.

"You've used this little trick before." Lu Bu knew it was her when he heard the voice. He turned his head to the right and bumped into her.

"Hehe, I'll switch to the left next time." Jia Jingwen winked at him and said, "Look, our second collaboration is to play a couple again. Do you think this is fate?"

"It means you have me in your destiny." Lu Bu said happily.

"You are so beautiful. You are the only one in my destiny." Jia Jingwen's head suddenly shut down.

"Haha, you are right." This made Lu Bu laugh.

"Huh, bully me!" After Jia Jingwen reacted, she hammered him on the arm and said, "I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go say hello to the seniors and come back to you later."

As soon as she walked away, a beautiful figure appeared in front of Lu Bu and said in a soft voice: "Hello, I am Gao Yuanyuan. I play the role of Zhou Zhiruo in the play. Please take care of me."
