In the golden history of Hong Kong film, there have been countless king-level directors and actors, but among these actors and directors, two people have to be mentioned.
One of them represents the ceiling of the action actor, the other represents the extreme of the director, and the two also give Hong Kong Films vitality in times of difficulty. The two
are Jackie Chan and Wang Jing .
Although Wang Jing has directed countless bad films and was called "the king of bad films", he has also made countless classics that are admirable.
Especially in the 1990s, when Hong Kong movies entered a crisis, it was difficult to attract investment, resulting in a large number of artists and behind-the-scenes personnel who had to quit the industry. Wang Jing turned the tide and made a new movie at the speed of shooting one movie a week. The record of the filming time at that time.
's low-cost, fast-moving films, and the ability to write scripts on the spot have become Wang Jing's endorsement.
In those years, Wang Jing shot countless bad films, occasionally a few classics were included in the bad films, but because of too many bad films, his talent was ignored.
Wang Jing's reputation has also continued to decline, but Hong Kong film artists and behind-the-scenes all regard him as a "god"-like existence, because he alone, with his own talent, supported half of the Hong Kong film circle at that time.
If you say Wang Jing, by virtue of her talent, the staff who are not big and responsible behind the scenes have a meal.
Jackie Chan is the one who provides a new path for those Hong Kong film ceiling figures.
Looking back now, the late 1990s was the golden age of Hong Kong film industry, but standing in that era, Hong Kong filmmakers were full of hesitation, not knowing where the future was going.
This is also the core reason why the Hong Kong film industry once had no new dramas and could not attract investment. Wang Jing had to explode his potential and come to warm up the entertainment industry.
In 1995, Jackie Chan knocked on the door of Hollywood with " Red Zone ", and gradually became famous internationally.
later established a firm foothold in Hollywood. Jackie Chan's success made the stars who were already famous in Hong Kong at that time have a "visionary" vision, and they began to keep their eyes open to the world.
Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that Jackie Chan is the "leader" of the top artists in Hong Kong Films.
However, Jackie Chan and Wang Jing, the "strong men", only worked together once in 1993 and never worked together again.
This has to mention the classic work "City Hunter" that the two of them collaborated on.
When Wang Jing was filming this play, she wanted to find a beautiful woman with a good face, a good figure and more beautiful legs to play the role of "Huixiang", but Wang Jing searched around and couldn't find a suitable role .
So, Wang Jing set his sights on Jackie Chan, because there was such a legend in the Hong Kong circle at that time: If you can't find a beautiful woman, go to Wang Jing. If Wang Jing doesn't have one, go to Jackie Chan.
Jackie Chan in the 90s has top resources in the entertainment industry.
So Wang Jing hopes that Jackie Chan can recommend a beauty to herself. After
heard Wang Jing's request, Jackie Chan directly recommended Wang Zuxian . At that time, Wang Zuxian had already made a name for himself in the Hong Kong circle, and his status was not low. He was also a signed artist of Jiahe .
But Wang Zuxian is not the kind of actress Wang Jing wants. Wang Jing said: Although Wang Zuxian's legs are long, they have no sense of line, so in his opinion, they are very ugly.
Therefore, Wang Jing didn't want to use Wang Zuxian, but Jackie Chan felt: Wang Zuxian is very good-looking, with a good figure and legs, and he likes it very much. In addition, Wang Zuxian was also a Jiahe artist at that time, so Jackie Chan insisted on using Wang Zuxian.
couldn't beat Jackie Chan's Wang Jing, and felt very angry. Originally, he wanted to ask you for a recommendation, but you just put someone in.
Wang Jing changed the script in a fit of anger, and then stuffed his then rumored girlfriend Qiu Shuzhen into thescript.
just to let Qiu Shuzhen steal the limelight belonging to Wang Zuxian, and slap Jackie Chan in the face, proving that Jackie Chan's vision for choosing beautiful women is not as good as his own.
, the two movie giants, were dissatisfied with each other due to the admission of two actresses. During the later filming of
, Wang Jing and Jackie Chan both set a certain level of "snatch setting" for the female artists they chose, which led to "City Hunter" becoming a "double heroine" mode. The original script was quite different.
Immediately afterwards, Jackie Chan and Wang Jing had another disagreement in the fight between the two actresses. The more
shoots later, the more differences there are. In the end, "City Hunter" was completed, and the two immediately interrupted their cooperation. Wang Jing continued to "conquer the public with talent", and Jackie Chan hit Hollywood.
"City Hunter" also became the last play of Jackie Chan and Wang Jing's cooperation.
The so-called beauty disaster, is it more than this?
