Chapter 107 Conflicts in the Crew

First of all, let's make one thing clear.

Zhou Xingchi's acting skills are very high!

This is Luo Xun's personal experience during the acting process. When he just acted with Zhou Xingchi, he actually changed five different ways to perform, but Zhou Xingchi was able to continue calmly every time, which is very telling.

Why is there not much evaluation of Zhou Xingchi's acting skills?

Because his comedy is so deeply rooted in people's hearts that people only remember his identity as the king of comedy, thus ignoring Zhou Xingchi's acting skills. In fact, Zhou Xingchi's acting skills have also been widely recognized.

Early debut.

In the TV series "Dream Edge", Zhou Xingchi played a schizophrenic who couldn't distinguish between dreams and reality, and his acting skills were terrifying; and in the famous "Metropolis", Zhou Xingchi played the son of the villain played by Zheng Shaoqiu, who was more ruthless than his father. At that time, the Hong Kong media called him the successor of Wu Qihua, because Wu Qihua was the representative actor of villains at the time, and even interviewed Zhou Xingchi and asked him if he was afraid of being stereotyped as a villain actor.

Not only that.

In Stephen Chow's debut film "Thunderbolt Pioneer", he played a gangster who was caught by the police and stole a car for the underworld, and won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor that year.

What's even more incredible is that.

Even Wang Jing, who parted ways with Stephen Chow, was very impressed by his acting skills and publicly declared: "He is the best actor I have ever seen. His acting skills are perfect and comprehensive, and he can control the tragic evidence. He is definitely not the funny school in your mind. He can act in art films and tragedies, but no one asks him to act."

"Those who learn from me will live."

"Those who are like me will die."

Chow's comedy has a bit of this tune. Even Chaplin's style can be imitated by someone. But except for Stephen Chow himself, no one can control Zhou's comedy, and can only learn from the sense of nonsensical Zhou's comedy.

"This is quite interesting."

Luo Xun thought in a good mood. He was originally worried about whether his existence could be successfully integrated into "Kung Fu". It would be bad if the style did not fit. Fortunately, he succeeded.

And there is one very important point for Luo Xun!

His acting skills have room for improvement. Fighting more with masters like Zhou Xingchi will definitely be of great benefit to his acting skills. Why do many traffic stars in later generations have worse acting skills even though they are professionally trained?

One is the lack of time and energy.

The second is that they have been playing some simplified characters in low-quality works for many years, which has led to the deterioration of their acting skills. If they have old actors to play against every day, they will always improve over time.

In short.

With the performance of the first scene, Luo Xun has successfully grasped Zhou Xingchi's ideas. In the following days, the shooting of many scenes has become more and more smooth.

However.

Luo Xun's smooth shooting does not mean that others also shoot smoothly, especially the several big-name Hong Kong actors invited by Zhou Xingchi, who have frequent conflicts with Zhou Xingchi. Fortunately, these conflicts are still suppressed by Zhou Xingchi.

Luo Xun sees everything.

From an objective point of view, he could not accurately judge the right and wrong of the two parties. Zhou Xingchi was a typical careerist who emphasized efficiency and execution, while the veteran actors in Hong Kong preferred to pay attention to human feelings and atmosphere, believing that filming should be happy and natural, not rigid, and try to be accommodating and considerate in everything.

This was just one of the contradictions.

There was another contradiction, which came from a characteristic of Zhou Xingchi. He liked to teach others how to act, including veteran actors. Many of these veteran actors had been famous for a long time and had their own way of acting. How could they feel comfortable being taught by Zhou Xingchi?

What's more...

Why could Luo Xun play freely, but they couldn't? Did they mean that they were not as good as a newcomer? Once this idea appeared, it could not be suppressed, so it was natural for contradictions to arise. If nothing unexpected happened, Zhou Xingchi would suppress these contradictions until the filming of "Kung Fu" was finished.

Luo Xun also hoped so.

But things went against their wishes. Half a month later, martial arts instructor Sammo Hung came and brought the Hung Clan to the "Kung Fu" crew for their first collaboration with Zhou Xingchi. Who would have thought that both sides were strong and soon the mood became very unhappy!

"Listen to my advice on the action scenes."

"But the feeling here is wrong."

"Didn't you agree with this set of actions yesterday?"

"I said you could try it, but it still didn't work. Why don't you redesign it? I want everyone's fighting style to have the characteristics of their own school. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Can I say I don't understand?"

The only person in the crew who could confront Zhou Xingchi head-on appeared, and that was Sammo Hung. The two of them couldn't hide their angry quarrels many times, which almost solidified the atmosphere of the crew.

Luo Xun finally understood.

Why Zhou Xingchi is unpopular.

He was too serious about filming, so his emotional intelligence would be low. Often, the same sentence could be accepted by others as long as it was expressed in a different way. Why must he be so stubborn? When talking to Sammo Hung, he was fine at ordinary times, but once he got anxious and angry, he would use an imperative tone. After so many times, Sammo Hung's temper also rose...

Luo Xun could not stop it.

History took the established track. The cooperation between Stephen Chow and Sammo Hung was once in a deadlock, and even delayed the progress of filming. Luo Xun began to worry.

The two crews he had experienced before.

There was also internal friction when filming "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", between me and the bearded man, but it definitely didn't develop to this point, and I wasn't qualified to compete with the bearded man. In "Pink Girl", it was all about everyone, even if there were some minor problems in the past, they were all solved tepidly. It's not like this crew, where people don't dare to speak loudly every day, as if a volcano will erupt at any time.

"Do you want to do something?"

Luo Xun, who has always been a bystander, was hesitant. If he continued to watch coldly, the ending of this conflict should be that Sammo Hung would leave, Stephen Chow would invite Yuen Woo-ping to save the day, and Kung Fu would still be the Kung Fu he remembered.

Luo Xun decided to continue to watch.

But soon Luo Xun couldn't be an outsider, because he found that those big-name actors who didn't get along with Zhou Xingchi before actually had the intention of getting closer to Hong Jinbao. If this development continued, if Hong Jinbao left like in the previous life, would these people do something...

"It can't be messed up."

"Those people are variables."

Luo Xun definitely didn't want to see too many variables in "Kung Fu", especially because of the variables caused by those unfamiliar big names. After thinking about it for a whole day, he decided to talk to Zhou Xingchi in the evening.
