320 [Fist Essence]

On January 20, Ye Jin finished all the post-production of "Fang Shiyu", and then he took Lin Qingxia to Hollywood to prepare for "Star Wars".

The release of "Fang Shiyu" is completely left to Jiahe.

Ye Jin believes that even if he is not in Xiangjiang, he will definitely be able to achieve high box office with the high quality of "Fang Shiyu".

In fact, after the post-production of "Fang Shiyu", Ye Jin specially invited Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and others to watch the film in advance.

During the process, Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and others were shocked.

The wonderful fighting in "Fang Shiyu" is something they have never seen.

The camera is changeable and the editing is sharp, giving people a feeling of a storm and oncoming.

Especially in the [Martial Competition and Son-in-law], the fights are flying in the sky and the ground, and the fists are thrilling and fun, full of imagination, and it is completely different from the fighting style of [Troubleshooting by moves] and [Hard Bridge and Hard Horse] that were common at that time.

"A Jin, this drama is not only fresh and interesting, but also the fights are really exciting." Zou Wenhuai raised his thumbs up and said, "Is this all new things you learned in Hollywood?"

"Of course not." Ye Jin waved his hand and smiled, "Hollywood action movies are very clumsy. How could it have such a sharp and swift fighting style?"

At present, Hollywood action movies and fighting scenes are very rough, basically in the style of street fighting. Swinging fists, smashing bottles, slamming tables, and kicking chairs is very simple. It was not until the large-scale introduction of the Hong Kong martial arts finger into Hollywood that its action style became sharp.

"I've thought about this myself." Ye Jin then smiled, "The current Xiangjiang Kung Fu movies are all hard bridges and hard horses, and they fight against each other when they are moved. Although they are very good at fighting, they are easy to get tired of watching them often.

So I thought of this kind of fighting, using lens switching and editing to enhance the impact of the picture. It was just an idea, but I didn’t expect that it would be feasible after application."

"A Jin, you are such a genius." He Guanchang said admiringly.

The [Honest Kung Fu Movie] created by Ye Jin led a temporary trend and filled the gap left by Bruce Lee's sudden death.

Nowadays, seeing more and more people shooting [Hello Fun Kung Fu Films] and the market competition is getting fiercer, Ye Jin has created this new fighting style model with [changing cameras and sharp editing], which has once again led the trend. It is really amazing and worthy of admiration.

"Mr. He has been awarded too much. I just like to think about it when things happen." Ye Jin smiled, "Since you all have confidence in this movie, the release of this movie will all depend on you."

"Don't worry, A Jin, I promise you that our Jiahe will definitely release this movie well." Zou Wenhuai said with a smile.

"A Jin, are you leaving?" He Guanchang heard the implication of Ye Jin's words.

Ye Jin nodded, "I'm going to Hollywood to prepare for the filming of "Star Wars"."

"Star Wars?!" When Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang and others were puzzled when they heard this name.

Ye Jin then briefly introduced the whole story of the matter.

"Oh, so that's it." Zou Wenhuai nodded, "No wonder Fox Pictures wants to buy your script, it turns out that it's for this reason."

"A Jin, have you agreed to cooperate with Fox Pictures again?" He Guanchang asked curiously. If this is the case, it may not be a good opportunity for Jiahe.

"No, Fox Pictures has withdrawn." Ye Jin shook his head and said.

"Then which giant invests in this movie? It must invest tens of millions of dollars, right?" Cai Yongchang asked curiously.

"I will invest this movie with a budget of 8 million US dollars," Ye Jin explained simply.

"..." When Zou Wenhuai and others heard this, they looked at Ye Jin in surprise.

"A Jin, Eight million US dollars is not a small amount. Do you really have to invest? What if you lose money? Have you ever thought about it?" Zou Wenhuai reminded.

Eight million US dollars, about 64 million Hong Kong dollars. So much money is comparable to Jiahe’s profits in a few years. If you lose such a large amount of money, it would be really heartbreaking.

"I thought about it." Ye Jin nodded, then smiled, "If you lose, you will lose. If you lose, you will lose. If you lose, you will be over. It's not that I can't make money anymore."

After hearing how bold he said, Zou Wenhuai, He Guanchang, Cai Yongchang and others looked at each other, and they all felt that they were old all of a sudden.

Back then, they gave up Xiao’s high-paying job and started a business, they were also full of energy.

Although they had no money, they could only rent two small houses for offices, and one person had to hold multiple jobs and was so busy that they were not touching the ground. But they were never timid, but were full of hope for the future.

However, after only five or six years, their ambitions were almost gone. They dared not take risks anymore, for fear of failure. It can be said that they were in a state of depression.

"A Jin, we are not as good as you." Zou Wenhuai sighed.

Then, he nodded to Ye Jin, "Okay, I wish you success this time!"

"I wish you success!" He Guanchang and Cai Yongchang also said.

"Thank you everyone." Ye Jin nodded.

...

Ye Jin and Lin Qingxia then flew to Hollywood.

Before leaving, he handed over the script of "Fist Spirit" to Cheng Long.

"Fist Spirit" is a work released by Cheng Long in his previous life in 70s and 8 years. At that time, he had become popular with "Snake Shame Hand" and "Drunk Fist", but his agency contract was still in Luo Wei's hands.

Luo Wei is a traditional director with a stubborn personality and looks down on [Hello Fun Kung Fu Movies] like "Snake-shaped Hands" and "Drunk Fist". He believes that such movies are not of grade at all and are completely farce.

But this kind of movie is really popular. So, Luo Wei, who failed too many times at that time and was desperate, filmed this "Fist Spirit" and tried a humorous kung fu film for the first time.

"Fist Spirit" sold for 2.3 million Hong Kong dollars, ranking 13th in the annual box office rankings that year, and it is also the most popular movie Luo Wei has made in the past two years.

But Luo Wei, who made money, immediately changed to film a serious kung fu film "Dragon Fist". However, the box office of this movie was only one million Hong Kong dollars, ranking 52nd in the annual box office rankings.

Luo Wei, who knew that she could no longer keep up with the times, was discouraged, so she gave power to Cheng Long to write and direct. Cheng Long then filmed "The Strange Tactics of Laughing Boxing", which sold 5 million Hong Kong dollars and won the box office championship that year.

To be honest, the story of the drama "Fist Spirit" is a bit rough. However, the advantage is that it adds the elements of [Spiritual Fantasy], and the theme is fresh, so it can achieve a good box office.

When Ye Jin was writing this script, he carefully revised it and made some obvious plot flaws. Ye Jin believed that this drama should achieve better box office results than his previous life.
