The classic Hong Kong martial arts film "The New Shushan Swordsman" underwent a 4K digital restoration and held its premiere at the Tsim Sha Tsui Cultural Center today. Yuen Biao, who participated in the film back then, attended the premiere.
It has been a long time since Yuen Biao appeared in public in Hong Kong. Yuen Biao, Qian Jiale and Ding Yu hugged each other and reminisced about old times when they met.
Yuan Biao pointed out that "New Shushan Swordsman" was released in Japan that year and became popular after that.
"It's so glorious that the Japanese accepted it back then. If you compare the filming in the past with now, it's nothing."
He also pointed out that it was hard to make action movies in the past: "The actors had to do everything by themselves. Jackie Chan and I danced on the second floor after the fight. It has always been like this. Now the audience no longer yearns for these things. Now they look at idols and like whichever idol performs well."
He accepted the decline of action movies calmly: "The trend is like this, there is no demand for it now, it is better for actors to act now. , the audience will accept it. If he is an idol actor who comes out and says he wants to fight, the audience will be suspicious."
With the advancement of science and technology, there is no need to rely on actors to work hard. Yuan Biao also pointed out: "Now there are many young actors in China who jump, and many of them are special effects. Made."
In recent years, Sammo Hung has to use crutches to get around, and his figure has also lost weight. Yuen Biao said: "No problem, don't be deceived by his appearance!"
Qian Jiale also revealed at this time that he joined the Hung family class. , Yuan Biao personally called to invite him. He said: "I received the call and thought I had made a mistake. It was so profound at the time. A big star is calling you. After thinking about it for a while, I immediately followed him to Spain to film "Food Truck". Fortunately, I made the right choice. I have used 40 years to prove to everyone that I was right to enter the Hong Family Class. It was in the Hong Family Class that I learned the most about the film world."
He also pointed out that Yuan Biao is a role model for many martial arts masters: "Brother Biao He is a good brother who gives us martial arts masters a path to follow. This profession goes downhill once we turn 30, so he gives us a path to follow."
