Dialogue with "Frog Brother" Tian Qiwen | Zhou Xingchi will return to the big screen at the age of 65

1905 movie network feature Have you ever wondered what kind of spark you will have when you become a director and encounter the golden supporting role of the movie "Frog"?


This May 1st, they collaborated on a movie.



For audiences familiar with Tian Qiwen’s comedy performances in Stephen Chow’s films, it is hard to imagine that he would participate in the creation of such a drama as a producer.


"I made my debut in a drama," Tian Qiwen explained to the 1905 film network. "When I was young, Director Mai and I worked together once. He was the assistant director, and I was the producer.



As one of the most revealing filmmakers in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, facing our camera, we once again revealed various creations and the stories behind them –


Talking about the creation of "Procuratorial Fengyun", "It turns out that there are not so many trial dramas, and there will be more suspense";

Talking about the emotional drama of "Prosecutor Fengyun", "the adjustment is only after the actors are appointed";

Tan, "I am the first person to beat Wu Jing in a movie, there is an agreement, but it will be three years later";

Talking about Zhou Xingchi, "When he is 65 years old, he will return to the big screen to direct and act."


01.


At the beginning of the movie "Prosecutors", a "school loan incident" was directly staged, and the camera directly showed the dark side of the girl being controlled by black-hearted loans.


The criminal, on the other hand, tidied up his clothes as if nothing had happened, and said flirtatiously, "It’s just a little girl’s entanglement."

It can be seen that the opening scale of the movie is not small.



And this is the first question that Tian Qiwen and director Mai Zhaohui threw to the other party when they got the script, "How big can the scale be?"


In their opinion, there are many fields and spaces worth exploring in the story of this theme, but if a lot of content cannot be talked about, then the story will be boring and the audience will not be satisfied. "After confirming these contents, we will continue to study how to create a good script."



As China’s first prosecution film from the perspective of prosecutors in the new era, "Prosecutorial Wind and Cloud" is not easy to film, even if it is endorsed by the Supreme People’s Procuratorate of China and supported by real events.


Unlike in the works of the public security police, the confrontation between you and me, this group of people is an important hub for connecting the front lines of the public security and court decisions.



Therefore, the script creation of "Procuratorial Fengyun" has been adjusted for a long time, "The previous script was more about the suspense part, and the investigation part was more prominent." But when it was about to start, Tian Qiwen suddenly found that such a creation was contrary to the theme of the prosecutor, "This is not a public security theme, and there cannot be too much content to investigate the case."



To this end, Tian Qiwen and Mai Zhaohui readjusted the script, expanding the original plan to shoot only one day of scenes, "After the adjustment, we shot for ten days." This adjustment is not a simple addition to the scene. The creative process must first follow the mainland court system to ensure that these contents can be seen.


"Fortunately, we finally did it." For Tian Qiwen, the creation of "Prosecutor Feng Yun" was extremely stressful, but it was precisely this pressure that brought him and Mai Zhaohui a lot of creativity.



02.


The first time he filmed in mainland China, Tian Qiwen was initially troubled by the cast. "My request is whether the actors are committed enough."


When the actor was confirmed, the script was still a complete male drama at first, "We just want to adjust the content and give full play to her role, not a simple cameo."



Tian Qiwen and the creative team were torn between Bai Baihe and Bai Baihe, "It must be watchable, so I kept adjusting the script."


Ultimately, the relationship between the two is not just a confrontation in court, but also a hidden emotional line.


"We have torn this relationship for a long time. After all, we are filming prosecutors, not their love." As the creator, Tian Qiwen is also very clear-headed.



Every actor in "Prosecutor Feng Yun" let Tian Qiwen see "investment".


He had collaborated with comedians before, and at the beginning, he still had scruples, "I felt a little awkward at first, and I always felt that he was a little out of place in the comedy." But when the camera turned on, "I don’t know him anymore, especially when he is so fierce in the film, I was scared when I sat in front of the monitor."



Tian Qiwen even "broke the news". In fact, at the beginning of the preparations for "Prosecutor Feng Yun", neither he nor director Mak Zhaohui considered Hong Kong actors. But he never expected that one day when he was on the crew, the styling teacher found Tian Qiwen and asked him to try on clothes, "I ordered the actor, why didn’t I know I was going to play the library director?"


At that time, the staff "pushed the blame" to the director, but no one thought the director could explain it clearly. A Rashomon-style casting selection actually led to the actor’s first original sound appearance on the mainland big screen. "In my previous movies with Zhou Xingchi, everyone saw the credit of the voice actor. After this performance, it made me very confident."



03.


When it comes to Tian Qiwen’s performance, all audiences can’t help but think of his comedy performance in Stephen Chow’s movie.


"In fact, when I debuted, I was filming a drama. Later, after we followed Stephen Chow, we did a lot of comedy, so we somehow felt that we had a sense of humor." As a golden supporting actor in Stephen Chow’s movie, Tian Qiwen felt that he had left the most breakthrough performance to Wu Jing.


It was Wu Jing’s first directorial debut, "He asked me to play the villain, and I want to play a martial arts film with him."


In that movie, the two had a lot of fights, "Wu Jing told me that only I could hit him on the big screen."


After many years, Wu Jing has become a director and actor with great box office appeal. "I still have a show appointment with him, but he has too many invitations now. We will cooperate after three years."



This kind of fate is always hard to describe, especially between him and Zhou Xingchi.


Tian Qiwen once said that he has worked with many filmmakers, and Zhou Xingchi is the one who has worked with him for the longest time. "In fact, I left Xinghui (Zhou Xingchi Company) for some other projects that I wanted to do, but then I went back to his" Mermaid "and" Journey to the West "series. Now it’s to see if he needs me, and we communicate every year."



As Zhou Xingchi’s senior partner, Tian Qiwen revealed in advance that Zhou Xingchi may "leave the mountain" to become an actor again at the age of 65.


Not only did the audience have expectations for the actor Zhou Xingchi, "He also wants to act, but he wants to play a different type for the audience, and his last one has already changed." If at that time, without Zhou Xingchi calling, Tian Qiwen admitted that all the partners who have worked together will gather again, "There are still 4 years, we have to plan carefully."


As for the current Tian Qiwen, he and his partner Mai Zhaohui will create more other projects first. In addition to "Prosecutor Feng Yun", another movie has been filmed and is waiting to be released.


"We worked together more than 20 years ago, and then we started a company together, but we didn’t care about it. He went to shoot’Infernal Affairs’ with me, and I went to develop with Zhou Xingchi, and now I just come back again."



The two filmmakers can now say that they meet at the peak, looking for a different creation in the best state. "We still have a lot of plans, and we will try different directions and markets."


Dangerous NIO, fishing where there are no fish, high-end pure electricity is passive water

On June 1, NIO quietly announced its May sales, and the share price fell by 0.60%. This was another decline after the share price of the second-generation ES6 fell by 9% on the day of listing. By June 5, the total market value had been less than 100 billion Hong Kong dollars.

From the head of sales/market value to the tail of new car makers, NIO only took 2-3 years.

The market value is less than half of Li Auto, which makes NIO, which lost 14.40 billion yuan last year and 44.60 billion in 5 years, on the verge of difficulties, and the cumulative loss is more than Tesla’s 15 years of establishment.

In 2022, NIO’s cash will decrease by 10 billion yuan, and as of the beginning of 2023, there will still be 40 billion yuan in cash in the company’s account. At such a "burning money" rate, I wonder how long NIO can support?

Li Bin, chairperson of NIO, actually knows very well. He said in an interview in April this year that,If this year’s work is not good, 24 years will become another 19 years, which means that NIO may be "back" in the ICU again.

After NIO went public on the Nasdaq, it once became the most valuable car company in China, and Li Bin (left) was no exception for a while.

Back in November 2020, NIO’s market value reached 72.84 billion US dollars (about 479.70 billion yuan), making it the highest car company in China in one fell swoop.

This can’t blame NIO’s current stock price, because sales are not awesome! In May this year, NIO only delivered 6,155 vehicles, a decrease of 7.6% month-on-month, ranking second to last among new car-making forces. This is the fourth consecutive month of decline, and it is getting farther and farther from the goal of "Wei 10,000".

The monthly sales of 3 models are about 10,000, and the 7 models are still around the 10,000, so NIO is dubbed "Wei 10,000".

"If NIO still 10,000 sales every month, Qin Lihong (president) and I will have to look for jobs." In early May this year, Li Bin also joked.

Li Bin and Qin Lihong are also very hard, but the high-end pure electric vehicle (above 300,000 especially above 400,000, such as ES6 plus optional super 400,000 yuan) market targeted by NIO is too small.

Regarding the problem of NIO, as the reader’s comment after the DearAuto article hit the nail on the head "Fishing where there are fish, otherwise it will be a dead end. Where there are fish? One is plug-in hybrid including range extension to solve the problem of mileage anxiety. One is to take a trolley within 150,000 to solve the problem of urban traffic, and the family has a second car. Where there are no fish, there are no fish in the more than 300,000 pure electric markets. Whether you are Wei Xiaoli, BYD Great Wall Geely, or Huawei, there are no fish. Wang Chuanfu said well, strategy is the most important, strategy is wrong, wasting money is small, wasted time is priceless."

I seriously suspect that this reader may be a Weilai owner who hates that iron cannot make steel, otherwise he will not be able to see the problem so clearly.

There is no universal standard for high-end pure electricity, which is generally considered to be more than 300,000 yuan, which is equivalent to luxury fuel vehicles.

NIO’s standard is higher – more than 400,000 yuan, and it often posted such forms last year to prove that it is a monopoly in this market.

In August last year, for example, NIO was still relatively popular, occupying the top and second place in the rankings, but the top 10 were imposed on less than 7,000 vehicles, all of which were given to NIO, and NIO could not support such a large company with more than 30,000 people.

Correspondingly, there are only 10,000 people in Ideal and Xiaopeng.

NIO also has an ET5 sedan that is more capable of playing, in the 300,000-400,000 range, the car claims to outsell BMW 3 Series, and the amount of insurance once exceeded 3 Series, but then sales fell rapidly.

In April, BMW sold nearly 12,000 3 Series, but only 4,293 ET5s, proving that the 30-400,000 pure electric market is not so optimistic.

Due to the unresolved issues of charging and battery life, pure electric vehicles are more suitable for small cars as the second scooter in the family, rather than pure electric vehicles such as NIO.

Of course, the popularity of big cars such as the Ideal L8 and D9 also shows that consumers can also pay for high-end big cars, but they are PHEVs.

The high-end is largely reflected in performance. For electric vehicles, improving performance becomes very simple, basically adding batteries and enhancing motors; while the interior is replaced by a large screen, just to see who has a larger screen and higher pixels.

The threshold has suddenly been lowered, which means that it is not as high-end valuable.

The demand for high-end pure electric cars, if there is one, is small. NIO worked hard, but to no avail. After the launch of ES6, ES8 sales plummeted; when ES7 came out, ES6 sales fell again; when ET5 came out, ET7 dropped sharply.

This is not a problem with the NIO family. Even the most powerful pure electric brand, Tesla, saw its million-dollar Model SX sales plunge after Model 3/Y came out.

Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi all performed poorly in the EV market. This is definitely not an accident. It is not that these products themselves are flawed, but that the market positioning is incorrect.

"We also know that high-end pure electric is a point of no return, but we can’t change it, it’s the decision of the global headquarters," a luxury brand head told DearAuto on condition of anonymity.

In addition, after three years of epidemic attacks, consumers are not as rich as manufacturers imagine, this year, no matter how the government at all levels to stimulate, car sales are always tepid.

According to the National Bureau of Statistics, the per capita disposable income of residents in 2022 was 36,883 yuan; this year, consumers seem to be even more short of money, and even if they have it, they will not dare to spend. The fire in Zibo during the May Day holiday also proved that ordinary people are "short of money", because the cost of going to Zibo is much cheaper than that of Sanya or Lijiang.

One of the reasons why NIO stood out in the early days was that it started early and had a first-mover advantage, which won the favor of the capital markets. The second relied on the ultimate service to create a unique city and build its high-end image. The power exchange model is the core of NIO’s service system, but this core may bring down NIO.

According to industry data, the cost of NIO’s first-generation replacement stations is about 2.50 million-3 million yuan, and the cost of second-generation replacement stations is about 1.50 million yuan (excluding batteries). NIO has established 205 first-generation replacement stations, and the number of second-generation replacement stations is 1,100. In this way, NIO has invested 21.625 billion in replacement stations. Including land rent and operating costs, NIO’s investment in replacement mode has exceeded 10 billion yuan.

In 2023, NIO plans to increase the number of new power stations from 400 to 1,000, with a new investment of 2 billion yuan.

"Kneeling and licking service" has no bottom line, it is difficult to get off the service, and the car owner is also spoiled.

NIO began to do some "tricks" on the service this year, including that the beta version of NOP + Enhanced Pilot Assistance will be switched from free use to paid subscription; the power exchange benefit will be changed from the original 6 times a month to 4 times a month free and no longer send home chargers.

The "backlash" came soon, and NIO’s sales in April and May did not exceed 7,000 units.

After the second-generation ES6 went on sale, ES7 owners quit (thinking that the ES6 was too cheap, affecting the residual value of ES7 used cars) and asked NIO for compensation. The owner replied to Li Bin and said: "My relationship with you is not that close. I am here to negotiate, not to talk."

Li Bin said publicly that this is impossible because he needs to invest in real money.

High-end is the tone of NIO electric vehicles. Li Bin has repeatedly emphasized that "NIO will not offer low-end vehicles, nor will it reduce prices."

But the auto industry is an industry that pays attention to scale. Li Bin is very clear in his heart, "In the long run, the sales of 2 million cars a year by car companies are the line of life and death. If you can’t see the hope of sales to this line, I think it will be difficult."

For NIO, the top priority is to sell more cars and cut costs to survive.

Due to NIO’s high-end attributes limiting its sales scale, its second brand, Alpine, and even its third brand, Firefly, are expected to be used primarily for impulse.

Let’s not say that multi-brand operation is a huge pit, and there are few successful precedents for Chinese and foreign automakers.

For NIO, going down is more difficult because it faces stronger competitors. In addition, mid- to low-end brands have higher cost requirements, which is not good at NIO.

According to NIO’s plan, the Alps brand will mainly target the price range of 20-300,000 yuan. And it is expected that products will be launched in 2024.

But competitors in this price range include BYD, Tesla, Extreme Krypton, Wei Brand, Deep Blue, and a large number of joint-venture electric vehicles.

Firefly is NIO’s car brand, which will be launched in Europe at that time, and is expected to be in the price range of 10-200,000 yuan.

The competition in this market is even more intense in China. Not only are there a bunch of pure electric vehicles including Aian and BYD, but also a large number of plug-in hybrid models. Wuling is also a mythical existence. (Text | DA Bin)

Science and Technology Weekly | 360 released Zhinao 4.0 Weilai reduced the price by 30,000.

Industrial trends

  01 360 released Zhinao 4.0, which has the ability of cross-modal generation.

  On June 13th, 360 Company held the application conference of 360 Zhinao Big Model, the cognitive general big model "360 Zhinao 4.0" was unveiled, and the 360AI digital man was officially released.

  In addition, Zhou Hongyi said that the key to overtaking China’s self-developed large model curve in the GPT era is to develop multi-modes. 360 Zhinao has the ability of cross-modal generation, and has the ability of text, image, voice and video processing, which can be applied to scenes such as Wensheng map, Wensheng map and Wensheng video. At the same time, 360AI Digital People Square was released, providing more than 200 roles, including digital celebrities, digital employees and other categories.

  At the meeting, the multi-modal function of 360 Zhinao "Wensheng Video" was first launched in China, and any text script can generate video, which is not limited by professional skills and materials, showing the ability of "making something out of nothing".

  Zhou Hongyi said that the core innovation of 360 in the big model lies in AI digital people, and digital people are the future.The most important application entrance of large model. 360 will redefine "digital people" based on the ability of 360 wisdom brain model. Different from traditional digital people who can only output content according to established scripts, 360AI digital people are characterized by having memories, people’s designs and personalities, and being able to reproduce their way of thinking and life experiences.

  02 can generate video with one click, and Gen2 is open for free trial.

  Recently, Runway, which is known as the video version of Midjourney and provides technical support for Stable Diffusion and Instant Universe, has developed an AI video editing tool Gen, which has been upgraded from the first generation in February to the second generation, and has been officially released from internal testing.

  In February of this year, Runway released a model named Gen-1, which can transform an existing video into a new video by applying any style specified by text prompts or reference images.

  Just over a month later, Runway officially released the more powerful Gen-2 on March 20th, completing the transformation from "editing existing videos" to "Wensheng videos", and providing multiple functions such as text+reference images to generate videos, still pictures to videos, and video style migration. Now, after the internal test in March, Gen2 finally opened a free trial-although the video it generated is only 4 seconds at present, and it has a total usage quota of 105 seconds.

  In terms of pricing, the standard edition member of Gen2 is 15 dollars/month, the Pro edition member is 35 dollars/month, and the annual membership can get 20% discount.

  According to reports, Twitter user Steve Mills has experienced its potential ability to generate MV in the Gen-2 beta. This user generated a total of about 500 seconds of video, and finally edited it into a 140-second MV.

  The author estimates that the whole production will cost at least $30 at the price of the public version. Coupled with the previous study and exploration stage, this price will be higher.

  Cristóbal Valenzuela, CEO and co-founder of Runway, once said when Gen-1 was released: "We have witnessed the explosion of image generation model, and I firmly believe that 2023 will be a year of video generation model."

  Chatgpt update, which can generate visual animation with one click.

  On June 13th, local time, OpenAI announced a major update to its large-scale language model API (including GPT-4 and GPT-3.5-turbo), including adding function calling function and reducing the use cost. After updating, the cost of embedded model is reduced by 75%, and the tokens input length of GPT-3.5-turbo is extended to 16,000.

  Since the end of March, ChatGPT update announced the launch of plug-in function, the number of third-party plug-ins has increased from 10 to more than 70. With the support of these plug-ins, ChatGPT can not only generate web pages and help users find jobs, but also visualize data directly according to their needs. ……

  At present, the new version of the model has gradually begun to iterate. The latest versions of gpt-4-0613, gpt-3.5-turbo-0613 and gpt-4-32k-0613 with extended context length all support function calls. Gpt-3.5-turbo-16k does not support function calls, and provides four times the context length, which means that one request can support about 20 pages of text.

  In addition, the old model began to be gradually abandoned. Applications using the initial version of gpt-3.5-turbo and gpt-4 will be automatically upgraded to the new version on June 27th. Developers who need more time to transition can also manually specify to continue using the old version, but all requests for the old version will be completely abandoned after September 13th.

  04 Nature refuses to post the generated pictures and videos.

  On June 13th, local time, Nature magazine announced in an editorial that in order to ensure the integrity, transparency and morality of the research, no pictures, videos or illustrations created by using generative AI tools will be published, unless they are articles related to artificial intelligence.

  However, Nature does not completely exclude artificial intelligence. The magazine still allows the use of text generated by generative artificial intelligence in articles, as long as it is clearly stated in the method or acknowledgment section. In addition, all sources of data, even data generated with the assistance of artificial intelligence, must be provided by the author. However, Nature firmly refuses to accept any generative artificial intelligence tool as the author of the paper.

  01 Meta Releases the First Humanoid Model

  Meta announced on June 13th local time that it will open some components of a new "humanoid" artificial intelligence model to researchers, which can analyze and complete unfinished images more accurately than existing models.

  This model is called I-JEPA, which uses the background knowledge of the world to fill in the missing parts of the image, instead of inferring only from nearby pixels like other generative artificial intelligence models. This method adopts the humanoid reasoning method advocated by Yann LeCun, the chief artificial intelligence scientist of Meta Company, which helps to avoid the common mistakes in the image generated by artificial intelligence, such as the problem of having an extra finger.

  Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, said that sharing the model developed by Meta with other researchers can help the company promote innovation, find security vulnerabilities and reduce costs. He told investors in April this year: "For us, if the industry standardizes the basic tools we are using, then we can benefit from the improvement of others."

  02 DeepMind releases new AI system to discover faster algorithms.

  Researchers at Google DeepMind, an AI research laboratory owned by Alphabet (GOOG), released a new AI system on Wednesday, which can improve the efficiency and sustainability of computing.

  DeepMind said that this latest breakthrough, published in the scientific journal Nature, focuses on finding faster computer algorithms. The computer algorithm isThe foundation is used by enterprises for trillions of times every day.

  This AI lab in London is famous for pioneering AI models, such as AlphaFold and mastering complex Go.AlphaGo, which named its new AI system AlphaDev. Based on AlphaZero (iteration of AlphaGo), the system uses reinforcement learning to find faster algorithms for computer science functions such as sorting and hashing. Reinforcement learning is a form of machine learning, in which computers learn and make their own strategies.

  Colin Murdoch, chief business officer of DeepMind, said, "This means that we can use fewer resources to do the same amount of calculations."

  According to the first financial report, Huawei responded that "Huawei does not build cars alone, but builds good cars with car companies" has not changed.

  In addition, according to the science and technology innovation board Daily, the successful transfer of the trademark "Wen Jie" by Huawei means that Huawei will have the dominant position in the trademark, and it will become the unified brand name of Huawei’s intelligent car selection model in the future.

  02 The price of the whole department was reduced by 30,000 yuan, and the price of ES8 fell below 500,000 yuan.

  On June 12th, Auto (hereinafter referred to as "") announced that it would adjust the price of all new cars, and the starting price of all models of the company was reduced by 30,000 yuan.

  After adjustment, the starting price of ET5 fell below 300,000 yuan to 298,000 yuan; The brand-new ES6 just listed in May this year also dropped to 338,000 yuan, and the price of the brand-new ES8 launched at the end of last year also fell below 500,000 yuan.

  This adjustment is not limited to the price, and the car rights of Weilai users have also been lowered.

  Specifically, the rights and interests of the first owner of a new car purchase user are adjusted to a 6-year or 150,000-kilometer warranty for the whole vehicle, of which the three-power system can enjoy a 10-year unlimited mileage warranty; Free power exchange will no longer be used as the basic car rights, users can choose to pay a single fee for power exchange, and then a flexible power supply package will be launched.

  For the users who have already picked up the car, Weilai promises that the rights and interests of the first car owner will remain unchanged. At the same time, when buying a new car from Weilai, the old users can choose to transfer the car rights of the original car to the new car, or choose to give up their car rights to deduct the car purchase price of 30,000-50,000 yuan. Li Bin, CEO of the company, explained that the old users can choose to give up their rights when buying a new car, which means that they can get 60,000-80,000 yuan cheaper.

Global gun! The global version of the pickup truck for the Great Wall Gun is on the market!

[One and one new car listed] On March 12th, the global version of the Great Wall Gun (parameter picture) passenger pickup truck was officially listed.

People are happy when they are happy! William Feng’s new drama conference turned into "Pippi Peak"

William Feng and Zhu Yilong attended the "Know No" conference.

The TV series "Do you know if it should be green, fat, red and thin" was held in Beijing today. The newly-married William Feng people are full of spirits at every happy event. They changed from serious Feng Shu to "Pipifeng", generous and humorous to help "good brother" Zhu Yilong, and contributed many golden sentences. The scene has become his "stand-up comedy" special.

William Feng hugs Zhu Yilong

"Do you know if it should be green, fat and thin?" starring newlyweds Zhao Liying and William Feng. Although the heroine couldn’t attend, William Feng also distributed a lot of "invisible dog food". When talking about his role in the play, Uncle Gu said "sweet": "He will take his wife to eat delicious food, make up his wife, be jealous and have a little mood, and create an atmosphere …" Turning to his rival Zhu Yilong in the play, he asked weakly, "Is it not good to say this in front of you?" Bring laughter to the scene.

When asked about the wisdom of life learned from filming, while shy Zhu Yilong was still thinking, William Feng took the initiative to answer the question: "I’ll answer this! I think Zhu Yilong should have learned a deep lesson. That is, when you like a girl, you must marry her at the first time. Don’t wait! Also, brothers can’t be trusted easily. If you are not active, the opportunity will slip to your brothers. Men must be a little worse. " William Feng also "complained" that the little girls in the play all liked the little grandfather played by Zhu Yilong. "In order to clear up the relationship with me, I followed him and shouted a second uncle … but I was used to it anyway. When I was still very young, my fans called me Feng Shu."

William Feng revealed that although they are rivals in love in the play, they have a good relationship outside the play. Zhu Yilong was shy when he was unfamiliar. "You can not talk from beginning to end after eating a meal." But after getting acquainted, the teacher became more lively and talked about everything. He once took himself to eat chicken, but he failed to learn. William Feng also recalled seeing Zhu Yilong for the first time in the crew. "I like Yi Long very much as soon as I see him. He looks like Tony Leung Chiu Wai [Weibo], so handsome! I took a fancy to him at first sight. But that scene was our tit-for-tat, and the gas field had to be mentioned, so he also promoted the small universe, and I also promoted the small universe, so I stared at each other! " When Zhu Yilong talked about his first impression, he sincerely said: "It was too dark, I didn’t see it clearly …" That led William Feng to "remedy" quickly. "He didn’t wear contact lenses that day!" Also reminded each other in a low voice that "we should flatter each other at this time", Zhu Yilong instantly understood and replied: "Brother Feng is very handsome! My first impression when I saw Feng Ge was that Feng Ge was more handsome than I expected … "

Double Pride is widely praised: animation inherits the chivalrous spirit of the East.

Recently, the 3D animation "Double Pride", adapted from Gu Long’s classic martial arts IP, presents the story of the twin chivalrous brothers "Little Fish and Hua Wuque" to the audience again with exquisite production and beautiful painting style, which awakens everyone’s memory and longing for the children in the Jianghu who are dressed in fresh clothes and brave in chivalry. On October 3rd, the animation of "Double Pride" rushed into the top ten of Tencent Animation Channel, which triggered a heated discussion among the audience. Many viewers praised it for its "authentic martial arts flavor of Gu Long" and "modeling intentions and aesthetic online". The popularity of "Double Pride" shows that animation, a popular expression for young audiences, is an effective way to spread martial arts culture and inherit chivalrous spirit.


Animated interpretation of Gu Long’s classic IP, innovative transmission of the chivalrous spirit of the East


As a leading writer of martial arts novels, Gu Long has created 57 works with more than 25 million words in his life. These works have created a series of chivalrous figures in the Jianghu, such as Xiaoyu, Hua Wuque, Li Xunhuan and Shen Lang, which convey the core of multiple chivalrous spirits such as "friendship, belief and transcendence". "Two Prides in a Family", which began to be serialized in 1966, is a masterpiece among them, and has been adapted into film and television works for many times, which is very popular among the audience.


The animated version of "Double Pride" mainly tells the story that Xiaoyu and Hua Wuque started their Jianghu trips from the Villain’s Valley and the Flower Palace respectively, and in the process, they never met each other and went to appreciate each other, and then joined forces to fight against the villains. The tortuous and bizarre life experience adds a "sad" background to the fate of the two brothers who were forced to separate since childhood. Because of this, the two people showed their indomitable and unyielding qualities in their respective growth processes, such as "getting out of the mud without being stained", which moved countless audiences.


In the animation, the two brothers joined hands with the heroine Tie Xinlan to fight against the five villains, the twelve astrologers and the villain Jiang Yulang. The wisdom, courage, sense of justice and the trust and mutual support between their peers are very suitable for the current context, full of praise for the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature and whipping the false, evil and ugly, which is of value guiding significance to young audiences.


As the first animated work in Gu Long’s martial arts IP, "Double Pride" also inherits the martial arts culture well — — This unique cultural element and valuable asset of China. For a long time, no matter how the external environment changes, Chinese people have always maintained a high degree of reverence and praise for chivalrous spirits such as gratitude, honesty and trustworthiness, once upon a time in america, etc., and thus many literary and film works have been born, constantly conveying the feelings and righteousness, kindness and warmth in the world. It can be said that "chivalrous spirit" has become one of the unique cultural business cards of the Chinese nation.


The new era needs new works and new expressions. How to make young people understand and love China’s traditional culture has always been a big problem in the process of literary and artistic creation. Especially with the development of the times, young people’s appreciation ability and aesthetic demand for literary and artistic works are increasing day by day. Only by constantly innovating expression forms on the basis of ensuring the content can we better attract the audience. The animation "Double Pride" not only restores all kinds of strange people in the rivers and lakes in Gu Long’s works, but also shows a strong antique charm and romantic atmosphere in scene modeling, painting style, soundtrack and action design. For example, the elegant and refined Flower Transfer Palace, the sinister villain’s valley and the magnificent Murong Mountain Villa are beautifully and freehand restored in the film, showing an all-encompassing river and lake scene; In addition, the title also presents the "Great War Seventeen Years ago" in the form of ink painting to the audience, highlighting the "romance and lofty sentiments" of Gulong Jianghu in all directions.


To sum up, With the help of 3D animation, a literary form popular with young audiences, "Two Prides in a Family" gives a vivid and vivid secondary image to the mysterious wonders of rivers and lakes and strange people with unique skills. At the same time, it also vividly displays many emotions such as friendship, affection, love and chivalry, so that the audience can gain a brand-new aesthetic experience while being subtly influenced by China’s traditional martial arts culture and spirit.


Martial arts culture links non-legacy handicrafts to make national culture glow with new vitality.


On November 21st, the animation of "Two Prides in a Family" joined hands with the national key non-legacy project "Wang’s Shadow Play in Huaxian County" to launch the activity of "The Swordsman’s Shadow Play resurfaces", and at the same time exposed the shadow play handicraft works of Xiaoyuer and Hua Wuque, in which Hua Wuque was armed with a long sword, wore a hairpin, dressed in blue, tied with a jade pendant and a fragrant bag, and the image of a gentle and elegant son came to the fore. The little fish holds a short knife in each hand, dressed in red cloth, tied with a rope and a bag around his waist, with weeds in his mouth and unruly eyes, and his lively and agile image temperament is also vivid; In addition, the overall line design of these two shadow puppetry works is also very fine. The lines and patterns on the clothes of Xiaoyuer and Hua Wuque are very clear, vivid and have ancient charm. Once they were launched, they won praise from the audience.


Shadow play originated in the Western Han Dynasty more than 2,000 years ago and originated in Shaanxi Province, China. In Huazhou District, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province, the hometown of shadow play in China, Wang Haiyan, the non-genetic inheritor of Wang’s shadow play, has been committed to the combination and promotion of national culture and intangible heritage for many years, and has designed many exquisite and heritage-rich handicraft works for various cultural products, including movies, cartoons and games. This time, the dream linkage between "Wang’s Shadow Play" and the animation "Two Prides in a Family" has brought the shadow play, a cultural heritage with a long history and tradition, back to the public in a younger and more dynamic way, bringing the audience beautiful enjoyment and conveying the value and charm of intangible culture to the young audience.


At the same time, martial arts culture, like shadow play, belongs to Chinese treasures, and classics need to be passed down. In this activity, the swordsman spirit carried in the classic IP of "Two Prides in a Family" was presented in a more vivid and diverse way in the combined narrative of "animation+shadow play", and the shadow play handicraft works with multiple artistic values such as aesthetics and collection were produced, which were welcomed by young audiences. This is of great significance for young audiences to feel the charm of Chinese culture and enhance their cultural self-confidence and cultural identity.


To sum up, as a Guo Man’s work adapted from the classic martial arts IP, it has both sentimental and cultural heritage value. In the cross-dimensional cooperation of "animation+martial arts", "Double Pride" shows its unique charm and is well received by young audiences, which provides a good example for how contemporary literary works can make young people better understand and accept traditional culture.

Under the shadow of her side face is the figure of Justin, just a twist, but people can’t help but get nervous. What kind of relationship they have and what they will experience are all curious.

Focus on the just battle of the network


Director Xin Yukun is praised by many movie fans as one of the directors who can shoot crime movies best in China. His first work, Heart Labyrinth, ranks the highest in domestic crime movies on Douban platform and has become a classic of crime movies in the eyes of many movie fans.

Mature and capable in modeling, brave and determined in character, which is quite different from the screen image she used to create. When Chen Miao put all her eggs in one basket to speak for the weak, she also completed her own human redemption. What kind of charisma and profound emotional resonance this role will bring to the audience is fascinating.
