Why was the Mr. Zombie series so popular in the previous life? And why, after the death of Lin Zhengying, zombie movies have been in decline and completely gone?
A large part of the reason is Lin Zhengying’s unique personal charm.
Where does this ‘personal charm’ come from?
To put it simply, Lin Zhengying has mastered that trick and can express it very well!
Not much, but exciting action scenes! All kinds of talismans, all in one go, various Taoist slogans, movements, etc... they all look very impressive!
All kinds of additions have resulted in a series of classics.
Of course, this also has something to do with Lin Zhengying's acting style and script. For example, Lin Zhengying is famous for cheating his apprentices, and his apprentices are also famous for cheating him. Awesome, etc...
However, even so, the classic Mr. Zombie movie series is not without its shortcomings.
For example... limited by the era, the special effects at that time were just like that, and they were definitely incompatible with reality.
In addition, the slow motion of some action scenes is also a negative point. But in that era, there was nothing we could do about it. Everyone did it, so it wasn’t a big problem.
In fact, the most fatal problem lies in the four words "eager for quick success".
The production cycle of the movie is very short, but the reason is not Mr. Zombie’s problem, but a common problem of the entire Hong Kong movie at that time!
But no matter what, now that Lin Yi wants to revive the classic, he must solve these various problems.
The special effects must be real!
Action? Now that Lin Ying is a real practitioner, is he still worried that he won't be able to make a difference?
“I am standing on the shoulders of giants. If I can’t change the script to a higher level when I know the good and bad and where the problems lie, that would be stupid enough. ”
Jin Yi smiled and began to construct the plot.
What was the first film shot?
Of course...
The famous Mr. Ren!
"Ren, a wealthy man, was ordered by a Feng Shui master at the time of his father's burial to move the coffin twenty years later, so he asked Uncle Jiu, a local Maoshan master, to help with the matter."
p>“On the day when the coffin was raised, it was discovered that Mr. Ren’s graveyard was covered with dragonfly spots. His body showed no signs of decay in twenty years.”
“This made Uncle Jiu suspicious, so he put it in the grave. The coffin was transported to Yizhuang where he lived."
"Later, Mr. Ren's body turned into a zombie and Mr. Ren was killed. Uncle Jiu thought that Tingting was in danger and took him into his home. The two apprentices are talented, Qiu Sheng admires Tingting, and therefore has a dispute with Ting's cousin..."
The plot unfolded step by step, Xue Yao couldn't help but frowned when she saw this: "Zombies? Are you going to make a horror movie?"
"I'm afraid...it's hard for horror movies to be a hit."
This is not Xue Yao’s unfounded worry.
Looking at the world's film industry, there is really no horror movie that has become a hit and has a box office that is unparalleled. This was the case in the previous life, and it is the same in this life.
But Ji Yi smiled.
"Horror movie? No, no, no, actually, this is barely a comedy."
"..."
Xue Yao was confused: "Zombies, Comedy? ? ”
How do these two elements come together? Isn’t this thing like the legendary thing that was born from the resentment and bad luck of heaven and earth, is immortal, immortal, immortal, and is abandoned by the three worlds of heaven, earth and man, outside the six realms of living beings?
In short, it’s awesome and evil. That’s it.
Is this thing related to comedy?
And you’ve read half of the script, but you haven’t seen much of the humor at all, right?
"Well, you'll know it when the time comes."
Jin Yi scratched his head and didn't know how to explain it for a while.
But... Mr. Zombie is really not a horror movie!
A few days later, the script for Mr. Zombie was completed.
The plot of the first two levels of Under One Person has been roughly completed. Together with the original paintings of the main characters, the animation team has begun work.
As for the web drama, Liu Qianyue, Xiao Cai and others are in charge. The filming of Yu Zui is actually not too difficult. If you want to convey the feeling, the acting skills of the actors must be outstanding!
In this regard, Xinyu Entertainment has continued Lin Yi’s style from top to bottom.
As for actors, only choose the right ones, not the expensive ones!
The popularity of Xiaoxianrou is terrifying?
Sorry...
How popular you are, what does it have to do with us? We only look at the acting!
Today’s Xinyu Entertainment is no longer the newbie who just entered the industry six months ago and can only stumble forward.
"Kung Fu" and "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World", even if they are not enough to completely establish Xinyu's status, are enough to give Xinyu some voice in the entertainment industry.
Coupled with the popularity of online dramas such as Mao Liang and The Unkillable, it is not difficult to find a few actors for Xinyu now.
Except for artists who have signed contracts with "hostile companies" such as Tianhua, most people who receive Xinyu's invitation will take a closer look and consider it.
Although I may not agree, at least I will not ignore it.
After all...
What if it’s another Kung Fu movie, or Nezha?
And there is another thing about Xinyu that gives the industry a headache, that is... Xinyu doesn't play according to common sense at all!
In the past, artists who were ‘banned’ in the industry were generally not used by anyone. It’s not that I don’t dare, but it’s to give the ‘blocker’ some face.
After all, the entertainment industry is so big, what if I have to ban someone in the future?
So, everyone generally does not need to be banned by default, even if these people haveThe same goes for some acting skills and strength.
Aren’t they just humans? The entertainment industry is so big and there are so many film schools. Are you afraid that you can’t find one?
But Xinyu just doesn’t do that...
You block it?
Then block yours! I didn't say who I wanted to block. It's none of my business?
As long as you think the person is suitable, no matter how you block it, we will invite this person!
Unless the official bans this person completely, it will be useless for any of your companies! ! !
Xinyu Entertainment’s approach has really excited some people.
Especially some big guys and big companies in the entertainment industry...
In fact, when filming Kung Fu before, Zhang Xiaolong and others, Lin Yi and Xin Yu, were used. It has been noticed by some 'big guys' in Xiangjiang.
Now, as the web drama "Yu Sin" and the movie "Mr. Zombie" begin to look for actors, more and more people and companies... are offended!
This directly led to many people in the Chinese entertainment industry being very dissatisfied with Lin Yi and Xinyu Entertainment!
We have made it clear that we are going to ban people, and we have even banned them for several years. You are going to pick up those people who are almost dying?
Isn’t this against us?
So... Xinyu Entertainment and all their new projects quickly appeared on the Internet's forefront as soon as they were announced.
A large group of enthusiastic netizens appeared out of nowhere and started fighting with their keyboards in hand...
