Do you dare to do that too? Whoever does this action and who dies!
Dragon tiger martial artist
The documentary "Dragon and Tiger Martial Artist" that is being released has the title inscription Andy Lau, and many people think that it was invited by Hong Kong film big brother Da Hong Jinbao. Later, the director revealed in the video that it was actually Qian Jiale who came forward to invite him, not only because he is now the president of the Martial Arts Association, but also because he and Andy Lau are also old friends.
Earlier, Andy Lau had admitted in a Hong Kong talk show that during the Jiahe period, Qian Jiale was his royal stand-in.
At that time, Andy Lau had just finished filming "Rescue Mr. Wu", and the host asked a question: If you were kidnapped in reality, who would you find to send the ransom? In the movie is Lin Xue.
Andy Lau replied that it was Qian Jiale.
Whether it is because he drives well, because he has a foundation, or because he is reliable; in short, in and Therefore, In andy Lau's eyes, Qian Jiale is the most trustworthy.
[Qian Jiale] born in Hong Kong in 1965, is the younger brother of the famous Shaw film action actor Qian Xiaohao, who has been practicing martial arts with his brother since childhood, and has excellent physical coordination; later brought in by his brother to become a dragon and tiger martial artist, and soon joined the Hongjia class, becoming the youngest member.
At that time, Hong Jinbao, Jackie Chan, and Yuan Biao were all trump cards of Jiahe movies, collectively known as the Three Treasures of Jiahe.
Therefore, Qian Jiale is a martial artist of the Hongjia class, and all the movies of Jiahe have the opportunity to star, which also means that there is an opportunity to double the three superstars of Hong Jinbao, Jackie Chan and Yuan Biao.
In 1985, Andy Lau had no drama to film because of the wireless blockade.
In the most difficult moment, only Hong Jinbao broke through the ban and asked him to star in the action comedy movie "Summer Lucky Star". At that time, Andy Lau was very empty, so he practiced with Hong Jiaban for several months; so we saw that in "Summer Lucky Star", Andy Lau appeared with Jackie Chan and Yuan Biao, and could easily play more than a dozen, which was a bit like a future kung fu superstar.
One of them was a difficult one-word horse leaping backwards in the air, which was done by Qian Jiale's stand-in, when he was only 20 years old.
It was also from then on that Andy Lau and Qian Jiale met and began a friendship of more than 30 years.
[In "Summer Lucky Star", one of the Thai killers who assassinated Hong Jinbao was played by Qian Jiale.] 】
After the wireless ban was lifted, Andy Lau officially entered the film world, which became the target of a number of film companies for a while, and there were many cooperations with Jiahe:
1986 "Best Lucky Star",
1987 "China's Last Eunuch", "Liver and Gallbladder",
In 1988, "Provincial Hong Kong Flag Soldier 3 Escaped from Hong Kong" and "Dragons Seize the Treasure",
1991 "Extreme Tracking", "Dancing with the Dragon",
1992 "Yoshiko Kawashima",
Drunken Fist II (1994).
In these films, there are highly difficult and dangerous action scenes, and there will definitely be Qian Jiale's figure.
For example, in "Best Lucky Star", Andy Lau plays the new Fuxing star Lan Bao, who is the most capable of fighting, in "Liver and Gallbladder", he plays the most powerful horse boy under the villain drug lord, and in "Provincial Hong Kong Flag Soldier 3" plays a retired soldier who is forced to smuggle to Hong Kong, all of which have a lot of action scenes.
In addition, in 1992, Andy Lau's own investment in the martial arts film "Legend of the God of War" asked Hong Jinbao to be the director, and Qian Jiale was one of the martial arts instructors; not only there were many martial arts fights, but also the wonderful design of dolphins in the sea.
In the 1995 racing-themed love movie "Chariot of Fire", Qian Jiale not only acted as a stand-in, but also played Andy Lau's good brother Jiale in the film, and won the Best Supporting Actor Award at the first Hong Kong Film Golden Bauhinia Awards for the first time with the film's first nomination for the Best Supporting Actor Award.
[The flying car stunt in "Chariot of Fire" was completed by another fierce man, Luo Lixian.] 】
Andy Lau is not a professional action actor, and being his stand-in cannot achieve the honor of king of stunts.
Qian Jiale can become the king of the stand-in, more in the 80s in the classic action movies of Jackie Chan and Hong Jinbao, in exchange for his life.
The most famous examples:
In 1984's "Fast Food Truck", Yuan Biao jumped from the second floor, without any buffer, and directly landed on the ground, which was completed by Qian Jiale's stand-in;
In 1984's "Heart of the Dragon", Zhong Fa jumped from the 3rd floor of the restaurant, fell on an awning, and then fell on a moving car, which was completed by Qian Jiale's stand-in;
And there was a test shoot, because of the cooperation error, skipped the awning, fell directly to the ground, almost hit by the car that drove, thrilling;
In the final building showdown, 8 martial artists were blown up and fell from the 7th floor, one of whom was Qian Jiale;
Funny, there is also Qian Jiale who threw the bomb;
In 1987's "Oriental Condor", Hong Jinbao jumped from a high slope to a moving truck at a low place, and Many martial artists such as Yuanhua and Yuanwu tried it, and finally used Qian Jiale's version;
Before that, there was also a water bamboo shed that was bombed, and the people inside were blown up and flew into the water, and Qian Jiale was also among them, and the skin of his arm was burned;
In 1988's "Flying Dragons", Jackie Chan against the American martial arts master Binnie Euquaidz, Jackie Chan has a difficult volley slalom kick, which was completed by Qian Jiale's stand-in;
[Similarly, the foreigner who was hit by this foot also used a stand-in, and interested friends can go back and revisit it, and the hairstyle and hair color are obviously different.] 】
When Yuan Biao and Zhou Billy played, there was a hurdle jump back flip shot with extremely high requirements on the landing point, which was also completed by Qian Jiale.
These wonderful shots are presented in the latest documentary "Dragon and Tiger Martial Master".
Qian Jiale began to play the male lead from films such as "Shaolin Hero Fang Shiyu Hong Xiguan" and "Green Hornet" in 1994; soon he signed a contract with TVB and began to work as a host, filming dramas, and also as a martial arts instructor.
Andy Lau's action dramas such as "Disciple" and "The Storm" are the martial arts instructors made by Qian Jiale.
Therefore, the desperate stand-in work when he first debuted was gradually handed over to young people to do.
Later, Qian Jiale had his own martial arts team, Qian Jiaban, and also became the president of the Hong Kong Martial Arts Association; he was nominated for the Best Action Direction Award at the Academy Awards 11 times, and won the Best Action Design Award at the Golden Horse Awards for 1st Rider.
Such a king of stand-ins will certainly be a master of action design in the Chinese film industry in the future.
