Jackie Chan threw the crutch aside and walked over carefully, saying to Binny Yuquedz and Prayut who were fighting: You are making a movie, not a ring.Prayut's feet should be raised to a higher point, so that they can look better when they are shot.And Binny, I must play the targets I set correctly.Although this may not be enough, it will be more comfortable to watch in the camera...
Although he cannot take the filming scene in person for the time being, Jackie Chan, as the action director of this film, has no time to rest.
In fact, his feet were no longer seriously damaged, but Cai Yongchang insisted on keeping him for two more days. Not only that, he even got Jackie Chan a crutch.
Kang Jianfei is still directing the shooting, but Brigitte Lin and Sophie Marceau are having a happy chat.
Maybe it was because there were too few women in the crew, and they naturally got together after filming, and became good friends in just one day.
After Sophie Marceau debuted, the Gaomeng Film Company she signed with consciously cultivated it. Teaching English is also one of the training courses. Brigitte Lin and Sophie Marceau are now communicating in English.
You've made more than seventy movies?Sophie Marceau looked at Brigitte Lin in surprise and exclaimed, "It's so amazing, how could you make this many movies?"
Brigitte Lin lay on the back of the chair, looking at Kang Jianfei, who was directing the show in the distance, and said: After suddenly becoming famous, many directors came to invite the show. At that time, they were young and didn't know how to refuse. No matter how much they paid, they basically took it as long as they were not too much. They filmed more than ten movies a year.
Sophie Marceau could not imagine how an actor could act in more than ten movies a year. She shrugged and said: If it were me, she would probably go crazy.Are you still so busy now?
Brigitte Lin smiled and said: Now that we are filming at most three movies a year, women have to cherish themselves twice as much, otherwise they will grow old very quickly.
Sophie Marceau said seriously: Miss Lin, you are very young and your skin is much more delicate than mine. I really envy you oriental people's skin.
Don’t be humble. Brigitte Lin was quite happy that she was praised by the little girl for her beauty. She smiled and said, “There are many fans of your movie in Taiwan.”
Sophie Marceau didn't even know where Taiwan was. She asked curiously: Is Taiwan far away from Japan?Someone watched my movies so far away.
Not far from Japan, Brigitte Lin said that when "The First Kiss" was released in Taiwan, it caused a great sensation, and many young people regard you as their dream lover.
Sophie Marceau said happily: If you have the chance in the future, I must travel to Taiwan.
Brigitte Lin smiled and said: Good Ah, I will be your tour guide at that time.
Sophie Marceau got up and asked for two bottles of mineral water, threw it to Brigitte Lin, and then raised her head and drank it. She looked at the martial arts actors who were repeatedly doing the same movements and the supporting actors who were pulled and kicked away, and couldn't help but say: I didn't expect it to be so hard to shoot an action scene.
Brigitte Lin bored and played with the bottle cap, saying: It's quite hard, and he has to be injured frequently. He can be so tired that he falls into bed and falls asleep after filming a fighting scene for a day.
Sophie Marceau pointed to Kang Jianfei who had just shouted "Crack" and said: Is Mr. Kang very famous in Asia?I found that everyone in the crew respected him very much.
When talking about Kang Jianfei, Brigitte Lin couldn't help but smile and said: Of course, he is a talented director in Hong Kong and has many strange nicknames.
Strange nickname?Sophie Marceau was puzzled.
Brigitte Lin said: Like a 'disaster film director' or something.
Sophie Marceau asked: Did he also make disaster movies?
Brigitte Lin explained: The director of a disaster film means that the movies he directs are a disaster for other directors.Any movies released at the same time will be squeezed out by the films directed by him.
Sophie Marceau was so surprised that she couldn't speak. She didn't expect Kang Jianfei to be so powerful.
While the two beauties were chatting, an Asian man walked over quickly and went straight to the direction where Jackie Chan was.
Aqiang, why are you here?Jackie Chan looked at the man in surprise.
The person who came was Jackie Chan's friend Chen Ziqiang and agent. It was Chen Ziqiang who recommended Jackie Chan to Luo Wei, which gave Jackie Chan a chance to make a comeback.
Later, Jackie Chan was poached by Jiahe, and Luo Wei took his anger at Chen Ziqiang, the recommender. Jackie Chan was quite loyal and took Chen Ziqiang into Jiahe as an agent with kindness.
I heard that your foot was injured, so I rushed over to take a look.Chen Ziqiang looked at Jackie Chan's feet with concern.
Jackie Chan patted Chen Ziqiang's shoulder with emotion and said: Just a little injury.
Don’t work so hard in the future. Chen Ziqiang persuaded him, by the way, Alin can’t leave when he makes a movie in Hong Kong, so he asked me to come and visit you on his behalf.
The Alin mentioned by Chen Ziqiang is Qin Xianglin. Jackie Chan first met Chen Ziqiang through Qin Xianglin and was then introduced to Luo Wei by Chen Ziqiang. The relationship between the three is very good.
Chen Ziqiang pulled a stool and sat down, lit a cigarette and said: I originally planned to come back in a while. Since I came, I will tell you. Boss Zou is going to release a record for you.
Ah is released again?Jackie Chan immediately recalled the painful experience of recording songs more than two years ago.
Chen Ziqiang explained: In the past two years, your movie episodes, theme songs, and the theme songs of the drama you are shooting now, Boss Zou is planning to make these songs into an album.
Jackie Chan silently calculated the time and said: I will record the song when the movie is finished. Christmas is about to come. Mr. Zou is going to let me release records during the New Year?
Chen Ziqiang nodded, shook the ash, and asked: How about it, do you feel uncomfortable working with that genius director?
Fortunately, Jackie Chan also brought the bench to sit down, and Mr. Kang respected my opinion very much.
Chen Ziqiang glanced at the crutch next to him and couldn't help but smile and said: Who got it for you?
Jackie Chan took the crutch over with laughter and cry and said: Who else can there be?Of course it was Uncle Chang. He sprained his lower ankle and actually got me a crutch.
Chen Ziqiang wanted to make a few jokes, but suddenly his face changed, he stood up and shouted: Stop!
Before Jackie Chan could react, he saw that Chen Ziqiang had already chased him, and a man turned around and fled in the distance.
What happened?Kang Jianfei came over and asked.
Jackie Chan shook his head and said: I don’t know.
Kang Jianfei asked again: Who was the person you caught up with just now?
Jackie Chan said: My agent Chen Ziqiang.
Oh, it turned out to be him.
Kang Jianfei has long been well known for Chen Ziqiang. This person is not only the producer of films such as "Myth", "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", and "Shinjuku Incident", but also the agent of big stars such as Cheng Yuling, Jacky Cheung, Maggie Cheung, Cheung Chung, Joey Chung, Joey Chung, Joey Chung, Joey Chung, Tony Leung, Tony Leung, Tony Leung, Sylvia Chang, Carina Lau, Liu Qingun, Ng Junru, Zhao Yazhi, etc.
A few minutes later, Chen Ziqiang returned to the crew panting, and Jackie Chan hurriedly asked: Aqiang, who were you chasing just now?
Remember... Huhu, reporter... The reporter was taking a photo just now. Chen Ziqiang was gasping for a few seconds before continuing to say, I pounced on his mother and ran so fast that he disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Jackie Chan said: Just take a photo, it’s no big deal.
Chen Ziqiang pointed at the crutch and said: Have you forgotten?Are you lying on a crutch in your hand just now?
Jackie Chan's face changed and he said: Those reporters shouldn't go back to write randomly, right?
That's all?It must be Jackie Chan was injured in a film and he was using a crutch. Maybe he would even write about your disability. Chen Ziqiang said angrily, "There are these deaths, and they actually came to Italy."
OK, just help us promote the movie.Kang Jianfei smiled and advised, thinking that these reporters were definitely not here to take Jackie Chan, and most of them came to Rome to do business and take a few photos.
……
Three days after the secret filming incident, a tabloid in Hong Kong indeed revealed a shocking news, saying that Jackie Chan was injured while filming a new film and suspected of having a broken leg due to a fall. Now he has to walk on a crutch.
As soon as this news came out, the newspaper's sales indeed increased significantly, and many Jackie Chan fans even called Jiahe to verify.
Zou Wenhuai, who was prepared for a long time, took the opportunity to hold a press conference to clarify and also promoted "Deadly Express".
Photos of some crew members were also published in Ming Pao and Oriental Daily in the following days.
These photos aroused great interest among readers, such as Jackie Chan and Billy Zhou squatting together to eat a box lunch, Kang Jianfei leaned on the director's chair and napping, etc.
Among them, the photos of Brigitte Lin and Sophie Marceau sitting together to eat ice cream attracted the attention of Taiwanese media. The China Times actually came to Jiahe and DreamWorks to buy photos.
For a moment, this film, which had not yet been completed, became a topic of discussion among many citizens.
Jiahe Film, General Manager's Office.
Zou Wenhuai threw a cigar to He Guanchang and asked: How is it going on in Rome?
He Guanchang said: Except for Aaron's injury, everything went smoothly.However, Yongchang called and said that the budget would probably have to be increased, and it would be too expensive to shoot movies abroad.
Zou Wenhuai asked: How much does it cost to increase the budget?
He Guanchang replied: The shooting budget may be above HK$50 million.
Zou Wenhuai couldn't help but frowned. Hong Kong dollars of 50 million were simply a sky-high price for Hong Kong films, but it only costs more than 6 million US dollars. The movie "Sky" invested by Jiahe a few years ago cost money.
But what made Zou Wenhuai unhappy was that "The Deadly Express" did not invite any big European and American stars to star in it. Zou Wenhuai didn't think she was very famous for her girl stars like Sophie Marceau.
If you didn’t invite top stars, where did the 50 million Hong Kong dollar budget go?
This is what Zou Wenhuai was dissatisfied with. He felt that Kang Jianfei was a bit too expensive to shoot.If Cai Yongchang had not calculated every account clearly, Zou Wenhuai would even suspect that Kang Jianfei would make profits.
The budget of 50 million is actually really not enough. Kang Jianfei's director's salary is 5 million, Jackie Chan's actor's salary is 5 million, and Brigitte Lin's actor's salary is 2 million.
The pay of the three main creators alone can be scary, and 12 million is enough to make seven or eight low-cost movies in Hong Kong.
However, since I chose to cooperate with DreamWorks, regretting it is useless now.
Zou Wenhuai is not that kind of tiny person. He changed the topic and said: Guanchang, I came to you today not for the "Deadly Express".There was already a rumor from Sir Shao, and he was about to sell Shaw Cinemas.
He Guanchang nodded: I heard about it, too.
Zou Wenhuai asked: Do you think we should buy it?
He Guanchang pondered: Jiahe Cinema has a very good layout now. I don’t think there is any need to steal the theater anymore. Sir Shao will definitely not sell it at a low price.
Zou Wenhuai said: If we don’t buy it, someone will definitely buy it.I'm afraid that when the time comes, there will be another Golden Princess or a new era, and there will be another competitor for nothing.
He Guanchang smiled and said: There is no such thing as a theater chain. Lei Juekun is rich and Kang Jianfei is talented. This is how Princess Jin and the New Era are supported. If it were others, they would have finished playing themselves.
I am not afraid of ten thousand, but I am afraid of Ah.Zou Wenhuai sighed.
……
What?You ask me to buy a theater!Pan Disheng looked at Cen Jianxun in surprise.
Cen Jianxun nodded and said: Shaw Brothers wants to sell the theater chain, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss this opportunity, you may not encounter such good things again in ten or twenty years.
The reason why Pan Disheng opened a film company was just to use movies to promote his brand and to make a fortune in the prosperous Hong Kong films. How could he ever open a theater company?
Acquiring theaters may cost a lot of money, right?Pandison asked.
Cen Jianxun analyzed: If it were in the past few years, it would definitely be so expensive.But now the political situation in Hong Kong is unstable, and land and property are falling sharply. Although Hong Kong films are becoming more and more profitable, the cinemas are not as valuable as three years ago.If you take action now, you can win more than half of Shaw Brothers Cinemas in tens of millions. If the negotiations are over in two years, you will have to be at least 100 or 200 million.
He could make money by asking Pan Disheng to invest millions in movies. If he bought theaters at tens of millions, he could only turn to his father for help.
Pan Disheng shook his head and said: I think it's better to be safer. We haven't even officially established a film company yet, so it's a little too early to talk about acquiring theaters.
Cen Jianxun is still instigating: Mr. Pan, even if we don’t make movies ourselves, judging from the current development trend of Hong Kong films, it is safe to make a profit if we open a theater company within at least ten years.
Pandison still didn't want to take risks and said: I don't know much about running theaters, so I'd better make two movies first.
Cen Jianxun could only sigh secretly. Although he saw the huge opportunity, he had no money to buy one of the small theaters, let alone acquire the entire theater.
Walking out of the Pan family's villa, Cen Jianxun suddenly felt that there was no future in opening a film company with Pan Disheng, because Mr. Pan's mind was obviously not focused on the movies, and he was more concerned about his watchmaking business.
Cen Jianxun, who was originally determined to resign from DreamWorks and started a company with Pan Disheng, suddenly hesitated.
……
Click!Come again!Kang Jianfei lifted his head from behind the camera, Aaron, try to relax and stretch his body.
I'll try again.Jackie Chan felt a hot palm, and when he raised his hand, he saw that the blood marks had been worn out.
The shot to be taken at the moment is very difficult, and Jackie Chan needs to quickly climb up to the second floor from the ground with bare hands, then climb to the balcony on the third floor and jump to another building.
Jackie Chan barely did this in the previous shots, but his actions were not as smooth as Kang Jianfei imagined.
To put it bluntly, what Kang Jianfei wants Jackie Chan to do is the parkour of the future.
Kang Jianfei put down the guide tube, walked over and said to Jackie Chan: Let me demonstrate, you should take a closer look.
Jackie Chan was a little surprised because most of the action scenes these days were all about. Kang Jianfei not only made special requests today, but also personally took the stage to demonstrate.
Not only Jackie Chan, but when the crew members heard that the director wanted to show their skills in person, they all came over to watch enthusiastically.
Kang Jianfei took a deep breath, and the three runners suddenly jumped up and stepped on the raised side of the wall.
While his body was rising with the force, his right hand had already been placed on the railing on the second floor, and then he hung the railing like a monkey and turned over.
Kang Jianfei did not pause at all. After going to the second floor, he stepped on the railing and jumped, and had already stepped on the windowsill on the second floor, and soon went to the balcony on the third floor.
Then he assisted and jumped, landed on another building and rolled and unloaded his strength, and finished the whole set of movement without any pause.
Jackie Chan swallowed, and Kang Jianfei's actions just now scared him because these were a set of actions that were to be divided into three shots, and they were actually completed directly by Kang Jianfei in one go.
Slap sex...
The crew applauded together.
Sophie Marceau pointed to Kang Jianfei upstairs and asked Brigitte Lin: Chinese Kung Fu?
Brigitte Lin nodded and said: It’s Kung Fu.
Sophie Marceau asked naively: It seems that all Chinese people know kung fu, do you know?
Brigitte Lin smiled and said: Not very good.
The three boxing champions Zhou Billy, Prayut and Bentley Yuquidez were also stunned. How could they have seen such agile skills?
Not to mention the actions made by Kang Jianfei, even the videos of parkour masters in later generations, those who saw parkour for the first time would think it was magical.
Binnie Yuquidz said: He certainly knows kung fu.
Hollywood action star Charles Bronson, who is in his 60s, exclaimed: That's not kung fu, this guy is a superman, he is even more sensitive than a monkey.
In the next time, Kang Jianfei spent more than half an hour teaching Jackie Chan the essentials of Parkour.
Jackie Chan is already agile, and some of his previous movie movements were similar to parkour, so he got it very quickly.
It took another half an hour, Jackie Chan finally finished filming the set of cameras just now in stages. After Kang Jianfei shouted, the guy seemed to be a little unsatisfied.
Jackie Chan is not very interested in the film concept proposed by Kang Jianfei, but he is very excited about learning parkour, thinking that this is another great skill to make a living in the film industry.
Although he cannot take the filming scene in person for the time being, Jackie Chan, as the action director of this film, has no time to rest.
In fact, his feet were no longer seriously damaged, but Cai Yongchang insisted on keeping him for two more days. Not only that, he even got Jackie Chan a crutch.

Jackie Chan swallowed, and Kang Jianfei's actions just now scared him because these were a set of actions that were to be divided into three shots, and they were actually completed directly by Kang Jianfei in one go.
Slap sex...
The crew applauded together.
Sophie Marceau pointed to Kang Jianfei upstairs and asked Brigitte Lin: Chinese Kung Fu?
Brigitte Lin nodded and said: It’s Kung Fu.
Sophie Marceau asked naively: It seems that all Chinese people know kung fu, do you know?
Brigitte Lin smiled and said: Not very good.
The three boxing champions Zhou Billy, Prayut and Bentley Yuquidez were also stunned. How could they have seen such agile skills?
Not to mention the actions made by Kang Jianfei, even the videos of parkour masters in later generations, those who saw parkour for the first time would think it was magical.
Binnie Yuquidz said: He certainly knows kung fu.
Hollywood action star Charles Bronson, who is in his 60s, exclaimed: That's not kung fu, this guy is a superman, he is even more sensitive than a monkey.
In the next time, Kang Jianfei spent more than half an hour teaching Jackie Chan the essentials of Parkour.
Jackie Chan is already agile, and some of his previous movie movements were similar to parkour, so he got it very quickly.
It took another half an hour, Jackie Chan finally finished filming the set of cameras just now in stages. After Kang Jianfei shouted, the guy seemed to be a little unsatisfied.
Jackie Chan is not very interested in the film concept proposed by Kang Jianfei, but he is very excited about learning parkour, thinking that this is another great skill to make a living in the film industry.
