Zhang Che's love apprentice Guo Zhui: the one-eyed dragon in "The Detective", the martial arts instructor of "The Eight Dragons"

There are many versions of

"Tianlong Ba Bu", of which Huang Rihua's version is the most classic and most loved by everyone. Qiao Feng, who hides the audio in his hat, Duan Yu Chen Haomin, who is gentle and jade, the fairy sister Li Ruotong, and Xuzhu Fan Shaohuang who is all the way open , The smart and kind-hearted Azhu Liu Jinling, and the unruly and willful Azi Liu Yucui are all portrayed lifelike. In addition to the full character, precise casting and acting skills of the actors, the success of "Tian Long Ba Bu" is also inseparable from the wonderful martial arts design. We must mainly thank Pan Jianjun and Guo Zhenfeng.

First of all, I will talk about Pan Jianjun. He is the martial arts director of TVB, and was also Stephen Chow’s imperial action director. "Brother hits the ghost", "Tang Bohu spot autumn fragrance", "Nine Pin Sesame Officials", "Domestic 007", "Once Upon a Time" and "The God of Cookery" "All the action designs are from him, one move and one style, well-designed and highly ornamental. And he also likes to show his face in Xingye movies. The most well-known one is one of Jiangyang thieves who was shaken to death by a leopard's head with a lion roar in "The Nine Grade Sesame Official".

Then I will focus on Guo Zhenfeng. This name may not be familiar to many people. Then if I talk about Guo Zhui, Hong Kong film fans must know him. Formerly known as Chen Julu, he performed in the acrobatic troupe in his early years. Both his skill and stage performance experience It was extremely rich and was later favored by Zhang Che. He Jiangsheng, Sun Jian, Luo Mang, Lufeng, Wei Bai and others became the fourth generation of disciples. Because of his lively and cheerful personality, everyone gave him the nickname "Gu Zhu" (Minnan) The phrase "lovely" means), Zhang Che named him Guo Zhui based on the homophony of "Gu Zhu".

Zhang Che always prefers disciples with spirituality and lively character, such as Wang Yu, Jiang David, Fu Sheng, etc. Among the fourth-generation disciples, he prefers Jiang Sheng and Guo Zhui. He once commented on Guo Zhui: "Among several disciples, Guo Zhui Learning martial arts is the fastest, easy to learn, and practice diligent." In the early days when

joined the Zhangjiaban, Guo Zhui could only play some small roles, such as "Nezha", "Red Boy", "Shaolin Temple", "Badaolouzi", and "Navy Commando". After all, at that time Di Long, Jiang David and Fu The voice is still playing in Zhangjiaban, and the protagonist is not in his turn. In 1978, Zhang Che began to praise the fourth generation of disciples, and Guo Zhui had the opportunity to act as the leading role. The most praised works are "Five Poisons" and "Incomplete", which are also classic cult films in Hong Kong film history.

Guo Chai in the Shaw Brothers period generally played decent roles, representatives of good people, such as the old four gecko He Yuanxin in "Five Poisons". It was with his help that Jiang Sheng got rid of other evil brothers. , And Chen Shun, the blind trader in "The Incomplete", and several "disabled" people unite to deal with Chen Guantai.

Chuyuan’s Gulong martial arts film has become famous. It is worth mentioning that Zhang Che has also directed Jin Yong's martial arts film, and Guo Zhui has also participated in many, such as Zhou Botong in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Miao Renfeng in "Flying Fox Story", Yuan Chengzhi from "The Sword of Blue Blood", Guo Jing from "The Legend of Condor Heroes", etc., in addition to "Fork Hand" with Qian Xiaohao, "The Third Type Fight" with David Jiang, and "Xia Ke Xing" with Wen Xueer. All come from Zhang Che.

Guo Zhui was praised by Zhang Che for another reason. He was good at action design. Before Liu Jialiang and Tang Jia were Zhang Che’s imperial martial arts instructors, after they started anew, Guo Zhui, Jiang Sheng and others took on the work of action instruction. The introduced films such as "Flying Fox Side Story" and "Blue Blood Sword" were all produced by them.

In the mid-80s, Zhang Che gradually faded out of the film world, Guo Zhui also began to leave, participating in other directors' works, everyone should be more familiar with his works at this stage, such as "The Peacock Prince" and "Wesley's Old Cat" directed by Lan Naicai He is featured in "The King of Power", as well as "Loyalty", "Sea Wolf" and "Underground Armory".

has two other works that I have to mention, one is "The Detective" directed by his senior brother Wu Yusen. In the film, he starred in the Cyclops Crazy Dog. He has strong professional skills. He punched Chow Yun Fat and kicked Tony Leung. Never hurt the innocent. This image is somewhat similar to Xiao Zhuang in "The True Colors of Heroes 2", Xiang Fang in the fast knife of "The Thirteen Tai Bao in Shanghai", and Fan Yang from the knife of "Big Shanghai 1937". Wu Yusen is indeed Zhang Che's apprentice.

​​The other is the big brother of "Citi Shaolin", who originally vowed not to step into the Shaolin Temple, but in order to save people, he could only break his vow, and there was a stick fight with Liu Jiahui in the alley, which was very exciting.

In the late 1990s, Guo Chai rarely played roles, and focused more on behind-the-scenes work. He also made achievements in the field of action design. In 1987, he and Cheng Xiaodong, Liu Zhihao, Xu Zhongxin, and Hu Zhilong served as the action of "A Chinese Ghost Story" Designed, and was nominated for the Best Action Director at the Academy Awards, but lost to the "Plan A Sequel" of the married class. In addition, Wu Yusen's "Across the World", "Spicy Detective", Lan Naicai's "The King of Power", and "The White-haired Witch", "The Peerless Twins", and "Citi Shaolin" are also his works.

With the continuous decline of the Hong Kong film market, Guo Zhui also began to shift his focus to the field of TV dramas, joined TVB, became the action director of TVB, and changed his name to Guo Zhenfeng. In addition to "Tian Long Ba Bu", it was relatively popular in the previous two years. "Heroes of the Walled City" is also the action designer. In particular, Guo Zhui’s son, Chen Yesheng, was a traffic police officer. He was later killed in the line of duty. This blow hit him very hard. Fortunately, he slowly got out of the pain of losing his son. He is still 68 years old. Playing in the TV station, continue to bring us wonderful action scenes, pay tribute to him!
