"When I saw Liang Xiaolong's "Cha Boxing", I suddenly felt that Jackie Chan's "Legend" was not so ugly!"
A movie released on July 12 made the 76-year-old "Fire Cloud Evil God" Liang Xiaolong become Jackie Chan's "savior", because his "Chaquan Fengyun" is worse than "Legend" that uses AI to change faces!
This movie, which is only one and a half hours, not only has a mess of the plot, but the box office on the first day is only 637 yuan, and the increase on the second day is not even more than 100, which can be said to be not even a fraction of the box office of "Legend".
Who would have thought that when he was young, Liang Xiaolong was the "Four Little Dragons" in the Hong Kong circle with the same scenery as Jackie Chan!
The source of this article comes from the authoritative report [Maoyan Professional Edition] [Liang Xiaolong Encyclopedia Information] [Actor Yang Qingwen's Social Dynamics] (detailed sources are attached at the end of the article). In order to improve the readability of the article, there may be polishing of the details, please read sensibly, for reference only!
A generation of martial arts star Stephen Chow is an idol, but he became popular as the "Fire Cloud Evil God".
After the release of "Kung Fu", Stephen Chow once said that Bruce Leung, who played the role of "Huoyun Evil God", was his idol, and many netizens thought that this was just Stephen Chow's self-humility.
After all, when this movie was released in 2004, Stephen Chow was so popular that no one could compare, and Liang Xiaolong was just a martial arts actor who played a supporting role, but Stephen Chow, who made him show his face in the movie, was more like his "nobleman".
But no one expected that the first to come out to deny this statement was actually Liang Xiaolong himself, in the video released on November 3, 2023, Liang Xiaolong actually thought that he was more popular than Stephen Chow.
"So he (Stephen Chow) said to praise me, it's better for you to say that I praise you, Chen Zhen's fans will not be less than you (Stephen Chow)."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar, but with the "deep digging" of Liang Xiaolong, everyone found that his words were not unreasonable, because he had become popular once as early as when Stephen Chow was still a fledgling.
Liang Xiaolong not only played Chen Zhen in "The Great Hero Huo Yuanjia" in 1981, but also because this role was too popular, he was specially invited to play a "Chen Zhen" in the second year, and for a time he played Chen Zhen became a classic in the hearts of many older generation fans.
It's a pity that after the role of Chen Zhen became completely popular, Liang Xiaolong was once banned, and even left the audience's sight for 20 years, and when he appeared in front of everyone again, he was already the charter public "Huoyun Evil God" in "Kung Fu".
At this time, everyone reacted, it turned out that Liang Xiaolong was not not popular, but he was popular too early!
But Liang Xiaolong actually has more than so many achievements, because he has the same "real kung fu" as Bruce Lee and other martial arts stars.
It stands to reason that such a powerful character comes to make a movie, even if the plot barely passes, the actors' wonderful scenes will attract people, so why is the box office of Liang Xiaolong's "Cha Boxing Fengyun" less than 1,000 yuan so far?
The bad movie was ridiculed by the group, and the box office on the first day was only 637 yuan
In fact, it can be seen from the trailer that this "Chaquan Fengyun" is really bad, not to mention that it was filmed in 2016, the picture and lighting reveal a cheapness, and even the length of the movie is very problematic.
You must know that this movie is only 90 minutes, and in the face of other movies that are constantly two hours or even three hours long, the one-and-a-half-hour schedule is particularly cramped.
Not to mention whether the plot of the movie can be completely narrated in just one and a half hours, the audience has already developed the habit of watching movies under the influence of feature films, and an hour and a half is not enough for them to brew emotions!
Therefore, although "Cha Boxing" is endorsed by Liang Xiaolong, the "first person to check boxing", netizens still did not let go of their complaints about this film.
You must know that the box office of this movie on the first day was only 637 yuan, which is probably only enough for 20 movie tickets, that is, only 20 audiences were willing to buy it on the first day of release, which is really bleak.
And according to the current rise of the short video industry, there are more and more bloggers who complain about strange movies, and in order to be able to make complaining videos for the audience for the first time, they often become frequent visitors to movie theaters.
After learning about the professions of these bloggers, some netizens even bluntly said that maybe the unique box office of "Chaquan Fengyun" was contributed by this group of complaining bloggers!
In any case, the fact that the box office appeal of a generation of martial arts superstars is less than 1,000 yuan is really embarrassing, after all, it is the first time that many people have seen such a low box office.
However, some people said that there was actually another reason for this, Yang Qingwen, who also participated in "Cha Boxing", said that this movie will actually only be released in Anhui Province, no wonder many netizens are asking everywhere where to see the movie.
But even if the release area is relatively small, the box office of "Cha Boxing" is still irrefutable, after all, there are so many movie theaters in Anhui, will there really be a shortage of audiences for martial arts films?
In fact, although there is no solution to this problem in Liang Xiaolong, Jackie Chan, who is the same as him as the "Four Little Dragons", has already given the answer.
Looking back at the "Four Little Dragons" in the Hong Kong circle in the past, Jackie Chan was the biggest winner
Bruce Leung, Dillon, Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan were once collectively called the "Four Little Dragons" by Hong Kong media, but now looking at their respective developments, it is somewhat uneasy.
The first is Bruce Lee, needless to say, his death is an eternal pain in the hearts of many martial arts fans, and the second is Dillon, he became "bald" too quickly, and has changed himself from a male god to an uncle so far.
On the contrary, Jackie Chan and Liang Xiaolong are still active in the entertainment industry, and even the movies they starred in met in the summer file, because Jackie Chan's "Legend" was released on July 10.
Unlike "Cha Boxing", which only has a three-digit box office, the box office of "Legend" is much more normal, although 66.026 million is not the king of the summer file, it is already a film with high audience recognition.
"Legend" not only has the combination of talented women like Jackie Chan and Kim Hee-sun, but also special effects and unique AI face swaps, which have also aroused a lot of audience discussions.
Regardless of the reputation of this controversial film, the box office data and the popularity of the discussion alone are enough to prove that Jackie Chan is still very appealing to fans.
epilogue
From the "Four Little Dragons" who are popular in Hong Kong to the current era of a dismal box office and a declining popularity, the era of martial arts superstars seems to have come to an end.
But Liang Xiaolong may be old, but his classic characters Chen Zhen and the evil god of Huoyun have always accompanied martial arts fans.
