comedy Zhou Xingchi, who is called the star of the world, how did the name "Xingye" come from? One of the most widely circulated version is that in "Sacred Gambling", Wu Junru yelled "Master Xing" three times before and after asking A Xing for help. With the sales of "Sacred Gambling", more and more people know the name of Master Xing. , But people in the circle didn't recognize it at the time. Later, it is said that at a party, the big brother Sammo Hung called Zhou Xingchi "Master Star", and the name "Master Star" has spread in the circle since then.
Sammo Hung is known as the Big Brother, in addition to his outstanding ability, director, choreographer, producer, actors, and his mind to know people, employ people, and support people, Hong Jiaban was full of talents, Yuen Biao , Yuan Hua, Yuan Kui, Wu Ma, Lin Zhengying, Dong Wei, Cao Rong, Chen Huiyi, and Qian Jiale can all be the leader. Hong Jiaban has made a great contribution to the Hong Kong film scene. The Hong Kong Film Awards Lifetime Achievement Award is for Sammo Hung Just a matter of time. Although Sammo Hung and Stephen Chow performed in different ways, the two have cooperated several times. It is a pity that they did not cooperate with each other once.
1, "Senior Brother Crashing Ghost", "Big Lama"
"Senior Brother Crashing Ghost" was released in Hong Kong on July 28, 1990. At that time, "The Gambler" had not yet been released (1990/8/18), but Stephen Chow It has already begun to appeal at the box office, earning 12.12 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking 20th in the annual box office list. Of course, Dong Piao and Feng Suifan are the backbones. After all, they have been famous for a long time. The heroine Chen Derong was also a newcomer at the time. "Senior Brother Crashing Ghost" was her first film in the Hong Kong film scene. She was 16 years old and she was very pure. Zhang Chu Lian's face fascinated many people.
Some students will ask, what is the connection between Stephen Chow's "Senior Brother Crashing Ghost" and Sammo Hung? First of all, "Senior Brother Crashing Ghosts" obviously hit Sammo Hung's "The Great Lama of the Thunder". The role model of the stars is Sammo Hung. Then there is "Senior Brother Crashing Ghosts" produced by Shaw Brothers and released by Debao Films. Debao was founded by Sammo Hung and Jianxun Cen, which is naturally related to Sammo Hung. Since Pan Disheng took over, Debao Films has faintly replaced Shaw Brothers in the mid-to-late 1980s, and is known as the three major Hong Kong film companies along with New Art City and Golden Harvest.
2. The continuation of the gambler: "The Gambler"
After the success of "The Gambler", Liu Zhenwei and Yuan Kui jointly created the gambler's continuation: "The Gambler", but the protagonists are replaced by Zheng Yuling and Anita Mui, Zhou Xingchi It only appeared at the beginning and the end in the form of a cameo, especially the appearance at the end was the finishing touch, and an explosive head appeared to blind the audience. Star Master became famous with "Gambling Saint", relying on naughty image to "replace" Chow Yun-fat's tall and mighty gambling god image, just like Jackie Chan "replaced" Bruce Lee's image with a kung fu comedy, and achieved good contrast. What does
have to do with Sammo Hung? "Gambling Master" was jointly produced by Golden Harvest and Baohe, and Baohe was founded by Sammo Hung with the support of Golden Harvest, and produced countless classic works, such as "Ghost Fighting Ghost", "Mr. Zombie", "Fuxing Gaozhao" "Eastern Condor", "Flying Dragon Warrior" and so on.
3. All-star lineup: "The Big Banquet"
Hong Kong films have many strong lineups, such as the suspension of most of the Hong Kong crew to support Sammo Hung's "Rich Train", the "Double Dragon Club" which is preparing to build the director's club site, and "Miracle" "Fortune Corps", "Summer Lucky Stars" and so on, but they are all pediatrics compared with "The Big Banquet", it is the real all-star lineup, whether it is the protagonist, supporting role, extras, or passers-by and passers-by. He is a filmmaker with more than 200 stars. We all work together for one thing, and that is for disaster relief and charity.
Sammo Hung is one of the leading actors. Stephen Chow starred in his true colors. The title of "Master Star" was officially stamped, and Stephen Chow is the Master Star. The most interesting scene is the battle between Zhou Xingchi and Xu Guanwen. The scene was improvised by the two generations of comedy kings. The implication also means the replacement and inheritance of the two generations of comedy kings.
4, Stephen Chow's masterpiece: "Kung Fu"
Some people like "A Journey to the West", some like "The King of Comedy", and some like "Tang Bohu Pointing Autumn Fragrance". My favorite movie of Stephen Chow is "Kung Fu". Stephen Chow's masterpieces contain various elements, the struggle of the little people, and the original intention. As we all know, "Kung Fu" has two martial artsDirector, at first the Star Lord was looking for Sammo Hung. Maybe the two were not happy together. Sammo Hung left after completing the action scenes of the three masters against the "Axe Gang" and arguing with each other before leaving. Later, it was the producer Cui Baozhu and his friend Yuan Heping. Rescue. Although Ba Ye Yuan Heping took over the task because of Cui Baozhu's face, he also said that it is more pleasant to cooperate with Zhou Xingchi.
Regarding why Sammo Hung left that year, he also mentioned in an interview that he was bitten by mosquitoes all over his body because of injuries, less than 300 points or more. Then he came back to see the doctor for a week. Later, Master Xing told him not to go. Although Sammo Hung did not complete the task, the star still paid the film back then, and at the end of the film he also played the name of the action director Sammo Hung.
In fact, regardless of the conflicts between Sammo Hung and Star Master, both of them are excellent filmmakers. They have made important contributions to Hong Kong films. Finally, I hope they will make more good movies. Thank them for the good memories they have brought us. !
