Yesterday, the second premiere of Legend of Shaolin Temple and the launching press conference of the third part of Legend of Shaolin Temple, West Foothill Story, were held in Beijing Kunlun Hotel. As the main creator, we are invited to attend!
I remember we had the same press conference at this time last year, when the first film "The Legend of Shaolin Temple" premiered. After a year, the second part of the legend of Shaolin Temple, Thirteen Stick Monks, will also be broadcast on TV soon. I sincerely hope that it can continue to write the miracle of the first movie, make great strides all the way, and win the championship again!
It is worth mentioning that the top executives of Fuji TV in Japan also attended our conference yesterday, and brought fragments of the legend of Shaolin Temple, the first part of which was shown in Japan. Seeing our actors speak Japanese really makes people laugh and cry ~ ~ which attracted the audience's laughter!
On July 6th, the legend of Shaolin Temple "Thirteen Stick Monks" will be broadcast on four satellite TV stations in Zhejiang, Shandong, Chongqing and Henan. The filming process is very hard, we have shed blood and sweat, and countless people's efforts may be for those few seconds. I believe you can feel our serious attitude in the process of watching, and I hope you can pay attention to the legend of Shaolin Temple: thirteen stick monks.
At the Beijing Kunlun Hotel, with the singing of Shaolin, the Hong Kong-made "Kung Fu Boss" Yuan Biao and a group of heroic new generation military commanders-Xie Miao, Ethan and others opened the star premiere conference of The Legend of Shaolin Temple 2-Thirteen Stick Monks with their own wonderful tricks.
Following the red screen of Legend of Shaolin Temple 1, Legend of Shaolin Temple 2 will land on Henan Satellite TV, Shandong Satellite TV, Chongqing Satellite TV and Zhejiang Satellite TV simultaneously on July 6.
At the press conference, Director Du Xiao also revealed that The Legend of Shaolin Temple 3- The Story of the West Foothill will be launched in July. Different from the familiar scenes in the past, this drama will set off a huge wave of kung fu in the Gobi Desert.
"Legend of Shaolin Temple 2" plot ◆◆◆
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and the smoke continued, and the philosophers stood on their own feet as kings. Thirteen ordinary people, although they came from different backgrounds, were all hurt by troubled times and had no way out.
After countless bloody incidents, they hid in an empty door with family hatred and national hatred. But the dark forces still don't let them go. They are dying. In order to protect themselves, they practice martial arts hard.
In order to maintain world peace, thirteen monks rescued the famous monarch, wiped out the ferocious king and performed a heroic song.
Cultural giant system
If the market responds well, we will consider continuing shooting.
Yesterday's press conference was jointly organized by the Propaganda Department of Henan Provincial Party Committee, Zhengzhou Municipal Committee and Henan TV Station. "The Legend of Shaolin Temple series is a masterpiece created by Henan TV Station, and it is also the first large-scale TV series of Henan TV Station to test the water culture market." At the press conference, Shi, deputy director of Henan TV Station, said that the Legend of Shaolin Temple will continue to shoot the third film, and the total number of episodes will exceed 100. If the market responds well, the possibility of continuing to shoot the fourth and fifth films will not be ruled out. "This is an excellent way to promote Henan culture and show the spirit of Shaolin. As the mainstream TV media in the province, we have the responsibility and obligation to produce such an excellent drama. " Shi said that the "Legend of Shaolin Temple" series has won extremely high ratings and good audience reputation.
Red screen
Japanese TV stations came to "grab" the first broadcast rights.
It is reported that "The Legend of Shaolin Temple 1" was "hit" on the red screen last summer, premiered by four satellite TV stations, replayed by four satellite TV stations, and 16 terrestrial TV stations staged in turn, creating an unprecedented viewing miracle.
On July 6th, The Legend of Shaolin Temple 2- 13 Stick Monks will be premiered on Henan Satellite TV, Shandong Satellite TV, Chongqing Satellite TV and Zhejiang Satellite TV. This time, not only domestic TV stations rushed to buy the first broadcast rights, but even Fuji TV in Japan bought out the overseas first broadcast rights of the second part early. "The Legend of Shaolin Temple series has a unique Shaolin culture and kung fu connotation that Japanese TV dramas cannot replicate. The first film was warmly sought after by Japanese audience when it was broadcast on Fuji TV last year, so we not only bought the right to broadcast the second film, but also invested in co-production of the third film with Henan TV. We spoke highly of this play. " Japan's Fuji TV also specially sent five representatives to attend the conference yesterday. One of the representatives told reporters that the word "real kung fu" impressed the Japanese audience the most.
Secret of success
Farming the world depends on "real kung fu"
It is reported that a group of actors represented by Yuan Biao in The Legend of Shaolin Temple 2- Thirteen Stick Monks are all "Wulin experts". They have love and hate, death and bloodshed in the play, and the whole story is ups and downs, which is really exciting.
Director Du Xiao said at the press conference that he believed that real kung fu could conquer the world. His aim is to separate the martial arts drama from the martial arts drama represented by Zhang Jizhong. He believes that kung fu dramas are more cultural, more historical and closer to the lives of ordinary people.
The reporter noticed that there was a wonderful display of Shaolin Kung Fu at the beginning of yesterday's press conference. Real kung fu performances such as head-breaking steel plate and two-fingered Zen have made the guests and major media reporters applaud again and again.
"This drama has played a huge and positive role in the interpretation and promotion of Shaolin culture." Shi Yongxin, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, also came to the press conference yesterday to congratulate the play on its broadcast on the Star, and at the same time, he recognized the real kung fu concept of the play.
Authoritative data
Super high ratings applaud "Real Kung Fu"
The Legend of Shaolin Temple series shows the director's ambition to create a "new kung fu drama era". Now it seems that "Kung Fu" really paid off. The series has proved this point with its legendary high ratings, and it will also become a masterpiece of real kung fu.
At the press conference, the organizer Henan TV also revealed the super-high ratings of "Legend of Shaolin Temple 2- 13 Stick Monks" when it was broadcast on several ground channels. "This drama has been in Shanghai, Fujian, Guangdong, Jiangsu and other places, and has repeatedly topped the ratings champion with unstoppable momentum. When broadcast in Guangdong, the highest single-day audience rating reached 26.986%, and the highest market share reached 58.438+08%. " The staff of Henan TV station told the reporter that people in the industry said that the legend of Shaolin Temple's 2- 13 stick monks will become the focus of the audience on the mainland screen in the near future.
Under the cover of secrets
The Gobi desert in the west will set off a huge wave of kung fu.
At the press conference that day, Director Du Xiao also released the news that The Legend of Shaolin Temple 3- The Story of the West Foothill will be broadcast soon. The production team of the third film will be a "consortium"-not only four satellite TV stations will join, but also Fuji TV of Japan will join the production ranks as an overseas premiere.
Du Xiao said that the drama will be filmed in the western region, which shows more the desolate and tenacious characteristics of the western Gobi. The plot of the play will have more mysterious and novel designs. Shaolin monks will undertake a more important mission in the play, and the whole play will better combine the connotation of kung fu with the spirit of Buddhism. "We have big names like Huang Qiusheng, Bao Guoan and Jimmy Lin in the first two films, and there will be more popular stars in the third film." Du Xiao said that it is not convenient to disclose the specific actors, but "it will never disappoint the audience." According to the crew, the third film may also have Japanese popular stars to join.
Live tidbits
"Big Brother" was injured while filming.
Yuan Biao, a kung fu superstar, is the soul figure in Legend of Shaolin Temple 2. It was he who summoned thirteen monks and accomplished the great task of helping Li Shimin unify the whole country. Director Du Xiao told reporters that Yuan Biao was very dedicated when filming this drama, and he was often slightly injured. Yuan Biao, who plays Tan Zong, the head martial arts coach of Shaolin Temple, has a scene in which he holds the enemy's sharp knife with his hands folded. The scene is thrilling. "When shooting this scene, I was really hurt, because when I was holding the knife, the other party didn't react how to take it, so I inserted the tip of the knife directly into my palm, and then I went to the hospital to sew four stitches." Yuan Biao talked about that scene, which is still fresh in his memory. "Although it's hard work, I'm still grateful that this drama can give Kung Fu a real face and let the audience know what real Kung Fu is." Yuan Biao said that this drama is more shocking than some flying martial arts films.
"Little Whirlwind" premiered the Emperor.
At yesterday's press conference, idol star Jimmy Lin was the most popular actor, although he was the worst of the live actors. Before the press conference, a large number of fans "chased" the entrance of Kunlun Hotel, waiting for his arrival.
In The Legend of Shaolin Temple 2, Jimmy Lin plays the emperor for the first time in his life. He is also a wise king of Li Shimin. In the play, under the protection of thirteen stick monks, the son of heaven always shows his fist from time to time, but it always seems a little fragile. "Kung fu is not the hardest thing. The most difficult thing is that kind of imperial temperament. The domineering inadvertently revealed is difficult to grasp. " Jimmy Lin said that although this is the first time to challenge the role of the emperor, he believes that everyone can see a "different" Li Shimin.
Forbidden kingdom caught up with the previous waves.
"I want to be like Xie Miao's brother, growing up and playing big." The youngest kungfu actor in Legend of Shaolin Temple 2 is Wang Xiaolong. At this year's press conference, Xiaolong, who was only 10, was not allowed to be an established actor like Xie Miao, Ethan and Ji Chunhua at all. Even Yuan Biao jokingly called him "Brother Long".
"We have a martial arts star like Xie Miao, a national martial arts champion like Ethan, an all-rounder like Pan Yuanjia, and a powerful actor with special looks and good acting skills like Li Chong. These new stars in the kung fu world are the pillars of our future kung fu films. " Director Du Xiao said that the legend of Shaolin Temple has cultivated a batch of "forbidden kingdom" of its own. At the shooting scene, Yuan Biao, the "big brother" of Hong Kong Kung Fu, deeply admired their "hard work" spirit.
"Big Green Leaf" was originally a beautiful mother.
"I am a big green leaf in this play." Sun Huining, the only heroine of Legend of Shaolin Temple 2, told reporters at the press conference that she never "fights" at all, and now she can't even frown on a tightrope, which has firmly occupied the position of the first heroine and the first "supporting role" in the drama since Legend of Shaolin Temple 1.
"In other dramas, the heroine must be the star holding the moon. In this play, my heroine is entirely for the sake of monks, hehe. " Although this "green leaf" works hard all day in the play, Sun Huining in reality is a very beautiful girl. "I hope there is a director looking for me to shoot an idol drama or something. Hehe, let me be the girl in the play. " Sun Huining said that although acting is very enjoyable, it is really hard.
