Zhou Xingchi was accused of plagiarism the first time as a director, Zhong Liti replaced the superstar Gong Li on the top of the highest criticism, the golden supporting actors are even more complaining about Zhou Xingchi, it is such a film with countless black materials, still won the sixth good result of the box office that year, in the huge contrast between word of mouth and box office, what kind of story happened, today let us understand what you don't know in "The King of Destruction".
The film has just been released and suffered countless criticisms, among which the plagiarism storm has put Stephen Chow on the cusp of the storm, and the audience has found a lot of evidence, accusing the film of plagiarizing a Japanese anime.
For example, the sentence of the master brother of the broken water flow, I am not aiming at you, I mean that everyone here is garbage.
This line is not the original of "The King of Destruction", but from the Japanese anime "Demon Man", and there is more than one such plagiarism, the most obvious of which is that the overall style of the film is very similar to another anime "The Destruction King", so many similarities, so that the audience is more convinced that this is a bad film without sincerity.
With the film's hot screening, the public opinion of plagiarism also kept fermenting and forced Zhou Xingchi to come forward to explain, originally thought that he would find various excuses to fool the audience, who knew that Zhou Xingchi actually admitted this matter himself, he said that the inspiration for "The King of Destruction" did come from the Japanese anime "The King of Destruction", he also liked this work, but he did not plagiarize, but just borrowed the funny style, the plot and content are completely different.
So the attentive audience compared the content of the two works again, and found that what Zhou Xingchi said was not a lie, the two were just similar in style, completely not enough to be accused of plagiarism, so in the end this matter was not resolved.
Speaking of this, everyone must be very curious, the signature of the director of this film is not Zhou Xingchi, why the audience has come to him to say, is it the wrong person, in fact, everyone is really not wrong, because Li Lizhi is the nominal director in this film, and the person who really dominates the overall situation is Zhou Xingchi.
Before this film, Zhou Xingchi was rumored to be a "Director Taishang", and when filming "Tang Bohu Dian Qiu Xiang", most of the ideas and positions on the set were listened to the command of Zhou Xingchi, and Li Lizhi had been "elevated", which was confirmed in Zheng Peipei's interview.
To this work, Zhou Xingchi simply took over the whole thing, which is his directorial debut, and his old partner Wu Mengda revealed that when shooting this film, Zhou Xingchi was under a lot of pressure and nervousness, often changing the plot in order to pursue perfection, and finally not only failed to complete on time but also exceeded the budget cost, which is enough to see that Zhou Xingchi attaches great importance to this film.
And his first time as a director of the crew also happened a lot of things, including the change of the heroine of the storm, it is said that in the filming of "Tang Bohu Dian Qiu Xiang", Zhou Xingchi and Gong Li signed several movies to determine that "The King of Destruction" is also starred by her, but in the filming of "Tang Bohu Dian Qiu Xiang", Gong Li is because the image is too ugly and various uncooperative, so to this part Zhou Xingchi simply canceled the cooperation between the two and replaced the heroine with a newcomer Zhong Liti.
And she did not live up to the expectations of Xingye, born in Canada Zhong Liti is not familiar with Cantonese, in order to be able to present better results, put a lot of effort into learning, although in a short period of time can not see the results, but by the time the two cooperated in "Death Judge", Zhong Liti's Cantonese has been able to answer like a stream.
And on the set she is also very favored by Xingye, because of the pressure to catch up with the shooting, Zhou Xingchi is particularly prone to anger, and Huang Yishan Wu Mengda, who has cooperated with him in many films, has not been spared, but as long as Zhong Liti arrives on the scene, Zhou Xingchi will immediately put away his anger, the set is peaceful, and later when filming, the crew are looking forward to Zhong Liti can always stay on the scene and do everyone's protective umbrella.
In addition to being funny, this film is also called the most successful commercial film, in which the seamless interspersed advertising has no sense of violation, I believe that everyone is most impressed with me is that sentence, my Armani.
I have to say that this implant is the most successful, in my age when I have no concept of the brand, only remember Armani, and every time I see this brand, I will first think of the fragment of "The King of Destruction", and the second place is an advertisement that he Jinyin suddenly inserted when he fought against the master brother of the broken water.
This was a popular way of advertising in Hong Kong at that time, the time of appearance is not only not abrupt but also very suitable for the development of the plot, showing an unexpected comedic effect, the film in addition to funny Zhou Xingchi is also very combined with current events to arrange the farce in reality.
In fact, this period is really happening, there was a singer awards party that year, Dawn's popularity is the highest, fans think that this award must be Dawn, but at this time someone broke the news that this award was set as Andy Lau, for a time the fans of both sides quarreled, to the day of the award party, Dawn's fans in order to express dissatisfaction, ran to each other's fan camp shouting: "I love Dawn", the result was surrounded by a violent beating, so this farce, was added to the movie by Stephen Chow as material, Take this to appeal to everyone to chase the stars rationally and not to act excessively.
At the end of the film, there is a small Easter egg, and the young Gu Juji also made a cameo role, when he was still a face of collagen, I don't know if you found it.
Well, that's all for today's show
