After settling the 3D movie, Xiao Yunhai started to work on the screening of Elite Martial Heroes.
In fact, he had nothing to do. A few days ago, he called all the main cast of Elite Martial Heroes and asked them to attend the premiere tomorrow afternoon.
At the same time, Xiao Yunhai sent out invitations to all the directors, artists, film critics, and magazine editors that he could think of.
It was up to them whether they wanted to come or not.
At 6 pm on September 10th, the entrance of Hua Xia Cinema was already crowded with people.
A red carpet that was 200 meters long had already been laid out and the police officers were already in position.
The screening of Elite Martial Heroes could be considered a golden age for the entire Hua Xia film industry. Until today, the box office had reached 2.9 billion USD. Although it was a little weak, it should be able to reach 3.5 billion USD overseas.
The premiere of such a movie not only attracted more than 100 media reporters, but also many famous artists in the entertainment industry.
Those C-list and B-list beauties wore all kinds of strange outfits and treated the premiere as a red carpet show.
Xiao Yunhai was very helpless about this. However, since the other party had already come over, he couldn't just drive them back.
Xiao Yunhai had no choice but to treat them with respect, regardless of whether he knew them or not.
A middle-aged reporter sighed. "Today's premiere is probably the biggest premiere in the history of the film industry. Liang Hui, Ye Yongren, Ge Wuyou, Wang Guoan, Sun Yanjun, Yao Na, Chen Huan, and other superstars are all here. There are at least 30 A-list, B-list, and C-list celebrities. The premiere of Elite Martial Heroes is comparable to the Golden Bottle Film Festival. It's amazing. "
A reporter next to him said while taking pictures, "How can it not be amazing? The global box office of Elite Martial Heroes has reached 2.9 billion USD. Hua Xia will definitely be able to reach 1 billion USD. Someone calculated that the global box office of Elite Martial Heroes will reach at least 4.5 billion USD. It can definitely enter the top 5 in the global box office. You know, the fifth place, 'Alien', only made 4.46 billion USD. "
"Yeah. Our Hua Xia is comparable to America in every aspect, except for the entertainment industry, which is far behind Hollywood. Now that a pure Hua Xia movie has suddenly appeared and achieved such success, it's really uplifting. "
"Look, who is that? Yun Huang actually went to the red carpet to welcome her personally. Isn't this a little too much? "
"What do you know? They were the old principal, principal, and teachers of the Yenching Film Institute. Yun Huang was their student and had just graduated. When we see them, we must go and greet them. "
On the red carpet, the old principal, Qiao Shuhuai, said to Xiao Yunhai, "I didn't expect that our Yenching Film Institute could produce such a world-class director like you. Let's see if those people still dare to say that we only have theory and not practice."
In the past ten years, the Yenching Film Institute had produced many award-winning actors and actresses. Only in terms of directing, there was no one who could hold the fort.
Most of the directors in Hua Xia came from humble backgrounds. Only a small number of them came from schools, and they were not even students of the Yenching Film Institute.
Therefore, there was a rumor in the industry that if one wanted to study directing, one should not go to the Yenching Film Institute.
The directors who came out of there were full of wisdom and could speak clearly and logically, but once they went on stage, they were doomed.
When Qiao Shuhuai was the principal, he was very angry about this. However, there was nothing he could do about it. The few directors he had groomed had all failed, and almost all of them died after shooting a movie. In addition, a few other schools added fuel to the fire and badmouthed the Yenching Film Institute. Over time, no investors would look for directors from the Yenching Film Institute to shoot movies.
But it was different now. Xiao Yunhai's "Valiant Heroes" smashed all the rumors and slanders into smithereens. A box office of more than ten billion had never appeared in Hua Xia before.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Principal, you're flattering me. Without the school's nurturing, I wouldn't have been able to reach this stage. "
Zhuang Bin smiled and said, "Teacher, you may not know, but Yunhai is Teacher Yao's personal disciple."
Qiao Shuhuai said in surprise, "Is that so? Wenyuan, you're really something. You can teach such an amazing student. "
Yao Wenyuan felt proud, but he still said modestly, "I'm not that capable. Yunhai relied on his own hard work to reach this stage. I just played the role of a tutor. "
Xiao Yunhai said gratefully, "Teacher, please don't say that. If it weren't for your special treatment, I'm afraid I would have gone home to farm. "
"Hahaha."
Everyone laughed.
Xiao Yunhai said to Zhao Wanqing, "Almost everyone is here now. Wan Qing, lead the teachers in. I'll wait for a while. "
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said, "Teachers, please follow me."
Five minutes before the start of the movie, Xiao Yunhai walked into the screening room. Holding the microphone, he said to everyone, "Teachers and friends, thank you for taking the time to watch my 'Valiant Heroes'. As you all know, Hua Xia Kung Fu is the symbol of our country. Two months ago, because of the hype on the Internet, the netizens asked me to film a Kung Fu movie. At that time, I didn't have any work on hand, so I agreed. "
"To be honest, I wrote the script of 'Valiant Heroes' in less than a day. The plot was very simple. Even a teenager would be able to understand it. At that time, I didn't think of screening it in America. Later, by chance, I went to Hollywood. When I came back, I thought that since the plot of the movie is so clear, the American fans will definitely understand it. Why not screen it there? Maybe by sheer luck, the movie will become popular. "
"So, after finishing the post-production, I went to America and found Paramount, MGM Grand, and Columbia Cinemas. What I didn't expect was that the movie would really become popular, and it was unstoppable. It can be said that there was an element of chance, but of course, there is also an element of inevitability. "
"Now, let's enjoy the movie."
By the time Xiao Yunhai finished his speech, it was seven o 'clock sharp.
Not only their screening room, but all the Hua Xia cinemas in first-tier, second-tier, third-tier, and even fourth-tier and fifth-tier cities all started screening the movie.
Everyone knew that the reason why "Valiant Heroes" could become popular all over the world was because of the actual combat.
They really wanted to see what kind of battle scene would shock the whole world.
Three minutes later, the fight between Chen Zhen and more than ten karate students made everyone's eyes light up.
Abandoning all feints, it was direct, ruthless, straightforward, and domineering. There was an indescribable beauty to it.
Wu Zixu, who had filmed "Grandmaster," and had dabbled in Hua Xia Kung Fu, sighed. "What a powerful grappling technique. It doesn't play any tricks and goes straight to the point."
Hong Tianchou said, "Although it's only a short minute, the style of the movie is already revealed. That's actual combat, without any sloppiness. "
Liang Hui nudged Huang Qiusheng, who was next to him, and asked softly, "Old Huang, you also practice Kung Fu. Tell me, what Kung Fu did Yunhai use against the Japanese samurai? "
Huang Qiusheng said, "That's the grappling technique in Hua Xia Kung Fu, a true consummate skill. If we were to fight for real, the result would be exactly the same as those group performances. It's no wonder those foreign devils like her. "
The movie fans in the theater couldn't help but cheer.
"Yun Huang's movements just now were so cool."
"How good would it be if I knew this Kung Fu?"
"That was awesome. This is the first time I've seen this type of movie."
It was just the beginning, but "Valiant Heroes" had already conquered the picky movie fans.
Then came the second, third, and so on. It was a feast for everyone's eyes. Watching it made their blood boil, and they couldn't wait to see Chen Zhen in the movie.
Applause and cheers rang out incessantly.
Those who didn't manage to get the tickets for the first round heard the cheers in the box every once in a while. They felt an itch in their hearts and regretted not coming earlier.
In the second half of the movie, the battle between the two Kung Fu masters, Chen Zhen and Funakoshi Fumio, made the professionals in Xiao Yunhai's box clap their hands and exclaim in admiration.
The old principal of the Yenching Film Institute, Qiao Shu Huai, took off his reading glasses and rubbed his dry eyes. "I've watched movies my whole life, but this is the first time I've seen a fight scene like this."
Zhuang Bin nodded and said, "Yes, Teacher. The action design in Yunhai's movie is indeed amazing. It's a pity that there's no one in the industry who can reach their level of Kung Fu. It can be said that success is hard to replicate. "
On the other side, Huang Qiusheng said, "Old Liang, do you know how many types of Kung Fu they used in the fight just now?"
Liang Hui was stunned and said, "Is it a lot?"
Huang Qiusheng nodded and said, "A lot. I'm guessing it's no less than 20 types."
Liang Hui asked in surprise, "Guess?"
Huang Qiusheng smiled bitterly and said, "With my eyesight, I can only see seven or eight types at most. As for the rest, I don't understand at all. "
Ye Yongren, who had been silent all this while, said, "The Internet once said that Xiao Yunhai is the world's number one expert. Could it be true?"
Huang Qiusheng said, "Most likely. Watanabe is Japan's number one expert. That boxing champion, who was easily defeated by Yunhai, can barely be considered America's number one expert. Since they were defeated by Yunhai, that means that he's more or less the world's number one expert. Of course, Hua Xia is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. No one dares to say that there's no one better than Yunhai. "
Ye Yongren shook his head and said, "The new generation surpasses the old, and each generation is stronger than the last. When I see Yunhai, I feel like I've lived my life as a dog. "
Liang Hui and Huang Qiusheng looked at each other and smiled bitterly. At the same time, they thought to themselves, "That's right."
In the final scene, the battle between Chen Zhen and Fujita Tsuyoshi made everyone hold their breaths. They didn't even dare to blink.
For this scene, Xiao Yunhai used all the Kung Fu moves he had learned in his previous life. It could be described as ever-changing.
On the other hand, Zhou Lihu was the exact opposite. With his Iron Shirt and Shaolin Kung Fu, he countered the changes by remaining unchanged and attacked Xiao Yunhai with every move.
The two people's extremely ruthless moves made everyone extremely nervous.
Xiao Yunhai filmed this battle for more than a week. Among all the fighting scenes, this was considered the most intense.
If the battle between Xiao Yunhai and Watanabe was a battle of martial arts cultivation, then this battle was a battle of killing techniques.
Finally, Chen Zhen found Watanabe's weakness and killed him on the spot.
Soon, the movie ended.
Warm applause rang out in every theater.
"That's great. No wonder it can sweep the world."
"Classic, an absolute classic. I want to watch it again tomorrow."
"This kind of fighting scene really makes one's blood boil."
"Compared to 'Martial Heroes,' those Kung Fu movies are nothing."
