Tsui Hark originally wanted to invite Hu Quan, an old director who was famous for his martial arts films, to direct the first part of "Swordsman", and he will be the producer. But Xu Jinyang shook his head and said: "My movie is a movie that implements the concept of new martial arts. I think you think about this aspect the most, so you should direct it yourself. Otherwise, if you invite the old director over, the conflict of ideas between the two of you will lead to a quarrel in the end, which will be detrimental to the film. " What Xu Jinyang said was not unfounded worry, but such a thing did happen in the original time and space, which almost made this movie difficult to deliver. It turned out that in that time and space, Hu and Xu, who were predicted by the filmmakers to be a "good story in the film industry", had problems cooperating. The filming was less than halfway done, but the two had a deadlock. Speaking of the reason, it was Tsui Hark. Now that the director has been handed over to Hu Jinquan, he should listen to him, cooperate with all his strength, and respect his creative ideas and director style. However, Tsui Hark intervened in Hu Jinquan's directorial work as a producer, and kept putting himself on "Swordsman" creativity into the film. That old Hu thought it was a normal artistic controversy, and it was not unreasonable, so he didn't take it to heart, but after a long time, he realized that his position as a director was almost empty, and Tsui Hark's full involvement in all fields of the film , making the old Hu useless. The most difficult thing for Hu Jinquan to accept is that he and Tsui Hark have major differences in the creative concept of "Swordsman", one wants to carry out the romantic and simple style to the end, and the other wants to make a film with a sharp style, stunning visuals, A political allegory that borrows the past to explain the present. If no one makes any concessions, it means Hu Jinquan's failure, because the main members of the "Swordsman" crew are all from Tsui Hark's film studio, but he is alone. So, before the end of filming, Hu Jinquan left the crew in dismay, and Xu Zhi, Cheng Xiaodong, and Li Huimin jointly completed the remaining director work. Because of this problem, the degree of completion of the film has not reached a very high level, and traces of improvisation and messy editing by multiple people can be seen everywhere.
He pays great attention to the deployment of troops and generals in the shooting of any film. There must be only one voice and one idea, and they cannot fight each other. In this regard, Tsui Hark has a big problem. It is often reported that he is not in harmony with the director as a producer, including Wu Yusen, who has a very good relationship with him. If Tsui Hark really wants to be a producer, Xu Jinyang is still willing to choose a director like Cheng Xiaodong who has strong execution ability and his personal philosophy is not particularly prominent. Otherwise, there may be discord between Tsui Hark and Wu Yusen. The two had a lot of trouble when they collaborated on the 2nd and 3rd parts of "The True Colors of Heroes". Therefore, Xu Jinyang gave Wu Yusen more freedom and privilege to direct the "True Heroes" series, and asked Tsui Hark not to interfere too much. Similarly, Xu Jinyang still hopes that Tsui Hark will direct or supervise these new martial arts movies. Only Xu Feng can make these movies well. Lin Qingxia was sitting on the side, a bit speechless, she couldn't help asking Xu Jinyang: "What is the second part about?" Xu Jinyang roughly talked about it: "The second part tells the story of Linghu Chong retreating from the Jianghu. After meeting with the friends of the Sun Moon God Sect as planned, Linghu Chong will send his junior sister Yue Lingshan and other Huashan brothers to Niubei Mountain to retreat from the Jianghu. On the way, I accidentally found Dongfang Bubai who had practiced the Sunflower Book, but Linghu Chong didn't know Dongfang Bubai, and mistook her for a beautiful woman. Later, he met several times and even drank and recited poems together. After reuniting with Ren Yingying and Lan Fenghuang, The past few months have been turbulent, and there have been many major events. Ren Wo was imprisoned by Dongfang Bubai, and they discussed taking back the Sun Moon God Sect, so they pretended to enter the Ronin camp to inquire and rescued Ren Woxing (adab). Invincible, and later Linghu Chong, Ren Woxing and other masters attacked Heimuya, one to avenge his younger brother, one to regain the position of leader, and a great battle began......" Lin Qingxia frowned slightly, feeling that the plot was so-so. Xu Jinyang said with a smile: "Now that the movie has not been formed, you naturally don't know how classic your role as Unbeaten in the East will be. Believe me, this role will definitely take your career to the next level!" Recently, a lot of movies have sold well at the box office, the popularity of Wang Zuxian, Zhou Huiyou, Zhou Xingchi, Zhou Runfa and Li Lianjie's popularity made Lin Qingxia completely believe in Xu Jinyang's vision! "I believe in you and I'm looking forward to it!" It turned out that in that time and space, "Invincible in the East" became popular all over Asia soon after it was released, and broke the box office record of Kim Yong's martial arts film. It sold million US dollars (about 200 million Hong Kong dollars) in Asia. record. The biggest surprise of this film is that Tsui Hark turned "Invincible in the East" into a woman. When Mr. Jin knew about it, he was furious. The role of circle is played by women. Li Lianjie is recognized by the film industry as the most suitable male star to play a heroic swordsman. To be honest, he performed very well in this film. He made "Dugu Nine Swords" the best in the world, but he met Lin Qingxia who performed even better In this film, his limelight was overwhelmed by the heroine, and this was also the most stunning and sensational time in Lin Qingxia's film career. In the film, the two have rivalry scenes, and the biggest highlight is their emotional scene. Tsui Hark designed the plot of Linghu Chong and Dongfang Unbeaten to be a lover's surprise or surprise? There are many important roles in this film, whether it is the protagonist or the supporting role, the roles are very good, several beauties compete on the same stage, Lin Qingxia, Guan Zhilin, and Li Jiaxin are all recognized as the most beautiful in the entertainment industry. Li Jiaxin's junior sister "Yue Lingshan" is also very classic, she is dressed in a "tomboy" dress, which makes people shine. It is said that Li Jiaxin has a beautiful body, but she can only be a vase and can't act. In fact, her acting skills are quite good, and she can perform this role very well.
This version of Yue Lingshan and Linghu Chong is quite innovative, the junior sister loves the senior brother, and the ending without Lin Pingzhi's abusive heart is perfect. "Ren Yingying" played by Guan Zhilin is full of domineering, she really deserves to be the daughter of the leader. Compared with other TV drama versions, Guan Zhilin's performance is great. The tacit understanding between Guan Zhilin and Yuan Jieying in the film is very good, but the ending of "Blue Phoenix" is a bit miserable. Except for the male protagonist, this film is a female drama. Lin Qingxia's "Invincible in the East" is so amazing, it beats Guan Zhilin and Li Jiaxin. However, it would not work without the male lead. Later, Tsui Hark specially filmed the sequel "Resurrection", but it was a pity that the box office hit the street. Without Li Lianjie, "Invincible in the East" alone could not support the box office. .
