Wuxia films were once the genre films that we were proud of, and now they are slowly declining, and the summer "XueXian I." as a whole: the traffic is not "dead", and the acting skills still need to be cultivated; the immortals are not "immortals", and the immortals are competing for the upper reaches. Although "Xuexian I" is decent, but the action design is eye-catching, in addition to the credit of director Cheng Xiaodong, it is inseparable from a person, he is Xiong Xinxin, the jianghu people call "Seven Brothers".
Xiong Xinxin is not only the action stunt and director of "Su Xian I", but also appeared in the role of Pu Zhi, I don't know if everyone recognized it at that time. Xiong Xinxin's acting experience is also very inspirational, from stand-in to supporting roles, from supporting roles to actors, and then from actors to action directors, although he has met many nobles such as Liu Jialiang and Xu Ke along the way, today's achievements are also his hard work.
Xiong Xinxin learned martial arts from a young age, professional martial arts athletes, but also won the national martial arts championship, since watching "Shaolin Temple", the shock to him is too big, he envied Jet Li, Hu Jianqiang, Yu Chenghui, Ji Chunhua, Yu Hai and other people can show their skills on the screen, through the "Shaolin Temple", he also learned that the original martial arts can be promoted through movies, and even if he is not an athlete, he has one more choice, that is, to make movies and become actors.
In 1984, Shao sent Liu Jialiang to the mainland to shoot "North and South Shaolin", just when one of Xiong Xinxin's brothers was in the "North and South Shaolin" crew, so he called him to Beijing, and since then he has begun to associate with movies. Xiong Xinxin recalled that on his first day on the scene, a Hong Kong deputy director asked him if he could shave his head, shave his head and give him ten pieces, and then asked him if he could be a stand-in, that is, to do some actions, to be beaten or something, he said yes, too simple, shave his head. Because Xiong Xinxin's figure at that time was similar to Jet Li's, he became Jet Li's stand-in for the first time, and at that time, Jet Li was injured a little.
After "North and South Shaolin", Xiong Xinxin was appreciated by Liu Jialiang, and in 1987, the 25-year-old Xiong Xinxin accepted Liu Jialiang's invitation to leave the system and start a new chapter in her life in Hong Kong. It is said that he was pulled to the set as soon as he got off the plane, and then acted as a stunt to jump the car, and soon Xiong Xinxin's boldness and professionalism slowly became famous in the circle.
Xiong Xinxin once mentioned in an interview that when he was a martial artist in Hong Kong, his monthly income was equal to the income of about ten years in the mainland at that time, especially mentioning that the salary of the Hong Kong martial arts company was also very high, after all, this was a desperate and desperate work. At that time, he also said that after three or five years in Hong Kong, it would be enough to spend two lifetimes in the mainland. That said, he has never left the film world until now.
Liu Jialiang took him to Hong Kong to develop, Xu Ke is really let him stand firm in the Hong Kong film industry, when filming "Huang Feihong", Jet Li's dashing posture has Xiong Xinxin's figure behind him, when the shooting did not take long, Jet Li's leg was broken, the most wonderful ladder battle behind is Xiong Xinxin's stand-in, in addition to acting as Jet Li's stand-in, there are Yuan Biao, Yan Zhendong is also him, basically everyone does it. It is precisely because of this that he and Xu Ke have the opportunity to communicate, and one day the producer called him and said that director Xu Ke came to him and arranged a role for him, that is, the nine palace real people of "Huang Feihong 2".
After the Nine Palaces, Xiong Xinxin in "Huang Feihong 3" ushered in the most important role in her acting career, "Ghost Foot Seven", and the name "Seven Brothers" also came from this. In the film, he and Huang Feihong have a very wonderful scene outside the city wall, that scene is three threats tied to him, if one is not careful, he will be injured, but in order to play better and meet the director's requirements, he has no remorse.
In "Huang Feihong 3", in addition to the martial arts drama, the "Ghost Foot Seven" crawling in the rain is also very touching, Xiong Xinxin said that he was not prepared when filming that scene, he was very nervous, Xu Ke did not talk to himself, just told him to think about the years when he first arrived in Hong Kong, what he encountered, what he experienced. In fact, Xu Ke let him integrate his own experience into the role of Ghost Foot Seven, and it turned out that the scene was very successful and touched many people. In the film, "Ghost Foot Seven" slapped Huang Feihong several times, in reality, Xiong Xinxin also really slapped Jet Li seven times, Jet Li's face was swollen, and afterwards he also said sorry to Jet Li, the beating was very heavy.
After "Ghost Foot Seven", Xiong Xinxin and Xu Ke have cooperated many times, in addition to playing Ghost Foot Seven many times, they have also participated in the Flying Dragon in "Knife", Huang Rong in "Golden Jade Mantang", "Black Man" and "Big Three Yuan", etc. The deepest personal impression is still Long Fei, which is a guy who takes killing people as a business and does not allow others to be stronger than him. The movements of the flying dragon were designed by Xiong Xinxin himself, and the whole fight looked very real and extremely shocking, especially when he and Zhao Wenzhuo were faster than each other.
Xiong Xinxin was not satisfied after becoming an actor, and began to gradually move closer to the action director, and was even invited by Hollywood to serve as an action director, such as the "Strike Back King" in which he participated. Inside the play, ghost foot seven has great respect for Huang Feihong, outside the play Xiong Xinxin also repays Xu Ke, when Xu Ke filmed "Downstream", he put down his Hollywood work and came back to help Xu Ke, and later Xu Ke filmed "Seven Swords", and it was he who singled out the beam, and he repaid his Bole with practical actions. In particular, he also won the Golden Horse Award for Best Action Design for "Seven Swords" that year.
Although many people say that Xiong Xinxin is lucky and met Xu Ke, a nobleman, from another point of view, it is not good luck, but he broke his hands and feet, and did so many substitutes in exchange, otherwise why is it not your good luck, but him? As Xiong Xinxin said, when I broke my hand, where were you when I hit and fought?
Since 1984, "Ghost Foot Seven" Xiong Xinxin has been in the film circle for 35 years, and now she is still active in the film industry, still shooting her favorite action movies, and I wish him better and better development!
