Jackie Chan rides Liu Haocun? The movie "Dragon Horse Spirit" is particularly conspicuous

After several twists and turns, "Dragon Horse Spirit" was finalized, and the heroine Liu Haocun was particularly conspicuous.

Before there was an extra-theatrical dance storm, and after the acting skills of "Four Seas" were ridiculed by the group.

She and Jackie Chan are shoulder to shoulder, and the picture is really contrary.

Throughout the entire entertainment industry, when it comes to scolding traffic, Jackie Chan is the most experienced.

Every time he finished filming a scene, he was angry with the traffic star.

scolded this little flower for his poor acting skills, ridiculed the fresh meat playing big name, and got rid of the "traffic star black fan head".

Paradoxically, he is the old drama bone who "likes" to cooperate with traffic the most.

From Jing Tian, the partner of "Police Story 2013", to the matching of Wang Junkai and Di Li Gerba in "Grocery Store", Jackie Chan has almost cooperated with the traffic on the market.

Was it deliberate, or was there something else hidden?

Jackie Chan, if you are kidnapped, please wink.

Jackie Chan embarked on the "crooked road", purely unwilling.

He has always had a dream of transformation, and has publicly shouted many times: "I want to cooperate with Chinese directors such as Zhang Yimou and Li An, if I can't make films with them, it will be a regret for filmmakers." ”

Contrary to expectations, Jackie Chan is no exception.

In 1988, "Red Sorghum" directed by Zhang Yimou was released.

Jackie Chan sat in the dimly lit movie theater, his eyes wide as copper bells.

Such a movie, too good.

Having played a policeman and agent all his life, he suddenly wanted to play a farmer, even if he shaved his head.

Since then, he has become a die-hard fan of Zhang Yimou, and whenever Director Zhang's new movie is released, Jackie Chan will buy tickets as soon as possible.

Although he can't understand "Happy Time" and "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", he just likes the smell, which is the movie he wants to try the most.

The hard work paid off, and Jackie Chan finally met Zhang Yimou under the company's matchmaking.

He held a bunch of scripts in his hand and pulled Director Zhang to chat from afternoon to late night.

In the end, Jackie Chan's mouth was dry, and before he drank the water, he pulled his throat and said to Zhang Yimou: "These scripts, you choose one at will, you direct, I act." ”

As a result, Zhang Yimou refused on the spot: "I really can't help it, I can't see any of them." ”

As soon as this remark came out, Jackie Chan scratched his head in a hurry: "Then I won't tell you a story, the director thinks for yourself." ”

In this fight, whenever Jackie Chan met Zhang Yimou, he would ask him: "Director, is the script there?" ”

As a result, for a while, Zhang Yimou did not dare to go to Hong Kong.

In 1996, the two finally planned a new martial arts scene, because the script was sensitive and ironic, Jackie Chan had concerns and had to put it aside.

Later, Zhang Yimou deleted and modified it, combining it with Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin.

"Heroes" is born.

In 2000, Zhang Yimou began to plan for this film, and after Jackie Chan knew about it, he flew from Hong Kong to Beijing with a 100-pound catfish and took the initiative to ask for an unknown corner.

Seeing Zhang Yimou frowning and silent, Jackie Chan thought it was a problem of money, and immediately said: "I can pay 0." ”

In fact, Zhang Yimou considered Jackie Chan, but looked at the nameless and arrogant character, and then looked at Jackie Chan's smiling face, shook his head, and sent Jackie Chan away with a sentence of "You are too old, next time".

Zhang Yimou didn't want to go, and when he filmed "Full of Golden Armor in the City", he first thought of Jackie Chan.

But ponder and ponder, still not suitable for his role, can't let the eldest brother run the trick.

Jackie Chan makes a cameo appearance

So he decided to "pay the father's debts and sons" and invited Fang Zuming to play the prince.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yimou also ate a closed-door soup this time.

Fang Zuming was filming Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises" at the time, and felt that it was a little disrespectful to the director to take on the play again, so he had to politely refuse, and added at the end: "I rushed ahead of my father." ”

It can be described as murderous and murderous.

Until May 05, Cheng Zhang and the two met in Cannes.

Without waiting for Jackie Chan to speak, Zhang Yimou said first: "Didn't I owe you a film, let's shoot it in 07." ”

Jackie Chan was very high-hearted, and before the news was hot, he revealed himself at the "Mythology" press conference: "This is a story that takes place in the 80s, and it will definitely shake the world." ”

Unexpectedly, it was yellow again.

The burden of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games fell on Zhang Yimou's shoulders, and his busy schedule made him unable to make movies for two years.

Jackie Chan waited like this, and more than ten years passed.

In the end, Zhang Yimou was embarrassed, and he blamed himself in an interview: "I don't dare to see Jackie Chan now, and the thing I promised him is not finished yet." ”

Guilty of Jackie Chan is also Ang Lee.

In 1991, Ang Lee's first film "Push Hand" was nominated for the Golden Horse Award.

This was the first time he had participated in such a grand award ceremony, and when he entered the venue, he even nervously urinated, hurriedly found the toilet, and found a row of superstars standing by the urinal.

Andy Lau on the left, Jackie Chan on the right.

Before Ang Lee could say hello, Jackie Chan talked first, wanting to get a role from the other party.

At that time, Li An's reputation was not comparable to Jackie Chan, and he quickly nodded and agreed.

After going back, every time Ang Lee planned to make a movie, he had to filter Jackie Chan's face in his mind, and finally had to shake his head and sigh.

In 1999, Jackie Chan heard that Ang Lee was preparing to film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and immediately couldn't sit still.

Other movies you think I don't fight, martial arts films are always suitable.

As a result, the role of Li Mubai was tailor-made for Jet Li, so angry that Jackie Chan had to go home.

In 2013, Jackie Chan was full of excitement when he promoted "Zodiac", and the host asked him why, and he replied: "I'm negotiating a script with Ang Lee!" ”

Before the eight characters were brushed off, Jackie Chan was impatient to announce the news, which shows how much he is looking forward to it.

As soon as the news came out, netizens suddenly frowned the pan:

Ang Lee and Jackie Chan are going to collaborate on "Kung Fu Color Ring"?

Lian Po is old, Jackie Chan, you let Ang Lee go.

In the face of ridicule, Jackie Chan can't manage so much, he just wants to complete his transformation dream.

After waiting for more than ten years, there is always a drama this time.

Unfortunately, still no.

In fact, as early as 1993, there was an excellent opportunity for transformation, Jackie Chan only needed to nod, it was a small building in the section of "Farewell My Concubine".

The producer feels that Jackie Chan is from a Peking Opera class and is also an Asian superstar, which is a perfect fit for the film.

Jackie Chan was also moved, and was about to agree, but was stopped by his godfather He Guanchang.

The reason is simple: Jackie Chan can't play gay.

Looking back now, you can't tell whether this decision was right or wrong.

"Farewell My Concubine" has become the pinnacle of Chinese film history, and Jackie Chan has become a peak for Chinese actors.

Perhaps, this is a decision of both worlds.

Jackie Chan and the crew of "Farewell My Concubine"

In 2022, Jackie Chan once again rubbed shoulders with transformation.

This time it's "Instantaneous Universe".

The protagonist of the film is tailor-made by the director for Jackie Chan, and he does not hesitate to pay attention to this.

Jackie Chan couldn't get away from work, so he introduced Michelle Yeoh to the other party.

At that time, he thought that what he pushed off was just an ordinary comedy movie.

I never thought that what I pushed away was what I had been pursuing.

In January 2023, when "Instantaneous Universe" was nominated for 11 Oscars, Jackie Chan sent a message to Michelle Yeoh, jokingly filled with chagrin: "Congratulations on your movie!" You know the director was the first to find me. ”

Michelle Yeoh replied: "This is your loss. ”

Yes, Jackie Chan is always unlucky.

In 1985, Jackie Chan received a phone call from Sammo Hung.

The other party was straight to the point and invited him to make a literary film - "Dragon's Heart".

The plot is the story of Jackie Chan and his mentally handicapped brother (played by Sammo Hung) relying on each other for their lives, not funny or fighting, he can show his acting skills to his heart's content.

Hearing Sammo Hung say this, Jackie Chan wanted to join the crew that day.

At that time, a group of martial arts stars, including Jackie Chan, no one thought that they had acting skills, empty brute strength, but they could not act seven emotions and six desires.

Jackie Chan is not convinced, he wants to prove it to others.

"Dragon's Heart" is the opportunity.

In the first half of the movie, Jackie Chan was very enjoyable, crying bitterly, and micro-expression interpretation.

The second half of the acting is not right, Sammo Hung was forced by box office pressure, secretly poked and poked to Jackie Chan to add a bunch of scenes, good brotherhood, and became a police and bandit film.

"Dragon's Heart" is a difficult blasting jumping scene

This can make Jackie Chan unbearable to death, how is it different from saying good?

This feeling of taking off the pants halfway and lifting them up is really humiliating.

"Shinjuku Incident", which he cooperated with Er Dongsheng in 2009, can be regarded as Jackie Chan's more successful transformation work.

At the beginning of the shooting, there were many difficulties.

Jackie Chan's friends and fans have spoken out to stop it, and his wife Lin Fengjiao was the first to stand up against it.

For no other reason, this movie will ruin "Jackie Chan".

He Guanchang once set three bans on Jackie Chan movies: no bad guys, no bed scenes, and no death.

The Shinjuku Incident was violated in its entirety.

But at this time, Jackie Chan was like a wild donkey, very stubborn, and no one could hold him.

Not only to shoot, but also to invest 150 million yuan, it is really iron-hearted to do this.

After the movie was released, although the box office hit the street, the reputation was very good, and the bold and subversive Jackie Chan made the audience's eyes shine.

Jackie Chan was depressed.

Due to sensitive factors, the film was listed as a banned film in the mainland and was not allowed to be released.

Can a transformation that no one sees be called transformation?

Jackie Chan was unwilling.

At the same time, he also faces a real problem - age.

The older you get, the narrower your path.

If you don't take the opportunity to transform, the movie won't have to be made.

For this reason, he is willing to reduce himself.

Hong Kong actors mentioned Jackie Chan, in addition to "big brother", there is also the name of "tyrant on the set".

He described himself on the set as like Qin Shi Huang, only one voice is allowed, even if he is not a director, everything is under his control.

Therefore, even if it is not a movie directed by him, it will be printed with the four big characters of "Jackie Chan's works".

Not a director, better than a director.

During the filming of "Major Crime Unit", because Jackie Chan did not like the violent and sexual elements added by Huang Zhiqiang, the company was forced to change the director halfway.

He will also personally set rules for the set, there is a fixed place to smoke and drink, there is a queue for meals, dishes must be folded after meals, and violators will be fined one by one.

A friend came to visit the class, saw the orderly scene in front of him, and exclaimed: "This is an army!" ”

A tyrant on the set, well-deserved.

In 2010, one thing stimulated Jackie Chan a lot.

Jet Li, his nemesis, has successively released two movies, "Cast Name" and "Ocean Paradise", his acting skills have been widely recognized, and he has won a lot of awards, and the road of transformation has gone smoothly and smoothly.

Jackie Chan is anxious.

Overnight, Jackie Chan was like a tamed cow and sheep, the director said one, he didn't say two.

"Railway Flying Tiger" has a rivalry scene, director Ding Sheng asked Jackie Chan and Fang Zuming to smack each other's noses.

Jackie Chan is very resistant in his heart, he has been in the industry for decades, how can anyone dare to joke with his nose, not to mention that you are not a famous director like Ang Lee, but you can finally choose to obey.

He explained: "The director has his own thinking, I will not bother him. ”

Jackie Chan's voice slowly disappeared on the set.

On the movie poster, the four words "Jackie Chan's work" are also gradually fading.

The words "Jackie Chan's works" no longer appear

He began to shoot the sci-fi film "Blood of the Machine", the fantasy film "Detective Pu Songling", the main theme film "Railway Flying Tiger", and the healing film "Relief Grocery Store"...

He tried everything he hadn't tried, even with traffic actors.

But we all know that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

Jackie Chan's "self-indulgence" not only did not succeed in transformation, but was imprisoned.

Since "Zodiac", word-of-mouth box office has frequently hit the street.

"Pioneer", with an investment of 400 million, has a box office of only 294 million; "Detective Pu Songling", which has a box office of 150 million, has a huge loss of 450 million.

The transformation work with high hopes is even out of reach of Douban 6 points.

"Jackie Chan" is no longer the best label for a movie.

"Jackie Chan" is no longer a reason for audiences to enter the cinema.

At the age of 68, he has already considered retiring.

He has fantasized about countless beautiful ways to finish up, such as jumping into a volcanic pit while filming a movie and turning into a wisp of blue smoke; For example, when doing a difficult action, he was seriously injured and died.

What I most desire is to complete a successful transformation work, fulfilling the dream in my heart.

It can be seen that Jackie Chan's "fall" is actually looking for a perfect curtain call.

But "timing" is not the sweet honey hidden in strange beans, eating more, there will always be one.

Swallowing dates will only stink yourself and smoke others.

When there were few weird beans left, Jackie Chan finally had to grasp Liu Haocun's "life-saving straw", I don't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Although the movie has not been released, perhaps the audience has a certain number in their hearts.
