Chapter 93 One in a Million
Wang Jing is a well-known "quick shooter" in the Hong Kong film industry, and the biggest feature of his filmmaking is speed.

According to legend, "The Demon Cult Leader" was filmed in just seven days. However, due to shoddy production and overly subversive characters in the film, it failed miserably at the box office and the second film was aborted.

But many years later, this film is regarded as a classic by many martial arts fans.

At this moment, he was preparing to make a "Atlantic Rim" as quickly as possible.

After obtaining Lin Xiaoming's investment, Wang Jing did not prepare the crew immediately, but instead called Sammo Hung.

"Hey, big brother, do you have any time recently? Come and play a role in my new movie!"

At this stage, if Hong Jinbao doesn't say that there is a film contract, it's almost the same as accepting it. "What film?"

"A mecha-themed special effects movie?"

"You, you're still making a special effects movie, you're spoofing... Fatty Wang, you're not trying to spoof Pacific Rim, are you?"

Wang Jing chuckled, "Brother, your guess is correct. I have already raised 20 million yuan in investment from Huanya's boss Lin Xiaoming, and the male lead is going to find Xie Tingfeng...!"

"You fat bastard, deal with the offending things yourself, don't drag me into this!" After saying that, he actually hung up the phone.

Hearing the beeping sound coming from the phone, Wang Jing was stunned and couldn't react for a moment.

In the Hong Kong film industry, following trends and making spoofs are normal things.

If Jiang Heng can make "Pacific Rim", why can't he make "Atlantic Rim"?
The box office is good, and they are also planning to do "Rim of the Indian Ocean" and "Rim of the Arctic Ocean"!

But I didn’t expect Sammo Hung’s reaction to be so big, it’s nothing like before!
Little did he know that the reason why Sammo Hung was able to jump around in various roles in the past was because he had the capital at the time, and the reason why he dared to give Jackie Chan's idea to Jet Li to shoot "The Lion of Western Regions" was because the relationship between the two brothers was really solid.

But his relationship with Jiang Heng is not that solid.

Besides, China Film Corporation also participated in the investment of "Pacific Rim". Even if you are not afraid of offending Jiang Heng, you have to consider the reaction of China Film Corporation, right?
The reputation of Mr. Han San is no joke!
Wang Jing didn't believe it, so he called Xie Tingfeng and asked if he would like to act in a special effects blockbuster. He was very cunning and didn't tell him the name of the script.

Xie Tingfeng didn't care and asked about the main plot.

Wang Jing said that in the future world, a wormhole appeared at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, and a monster appeared and attacked an offshore oil field in the UK.

The British Royal Navy was dispatched to fight the monster, but the monster landed in Britain and attacked several seaside towns in succession, defeating the British police and army.

The Secretary of Defense proposed to launch a mecha plan to recruit mecha pilots from all over the world. The male and female protagonists who were studying at Oxford University were selected...

When Xie Tingfeng heard this, he realized, isn’t this a spoof of "Pacific Rim"?

I was able to make a guest appearance in "Pacific Rim" because of someone's recommendation.

During the filming, he had a good relationship with Jiang Heng and was also well-known in China Film.

We were still thinking about finding an opportunity to continue our cooperation in the future. Would I be crazy to make a spoof film with you and offend Jiang Heng and China Film?

Xie Tingfeng was young and energetic, so he didn't even make an excuse and just hung up the phone.

Hey, Wang Jing was so angry. Being rejected by two people in a row made him even more angry.

Aren’t you all surrounding Jiang Heng, afraid of offending China Film? I’ll go find someone who’s not afraid of them.

He immediately called Zeng Zhiwei. When the old man heard that it was a spoof of "Pacific Rim", he smiled and said, "Oh, this is good, I like it! The heroine should be prettier, prettier than that Gao Yuanyuan!"

Wang Jing agreed with a smile and asked if anyone could recommend a suitable male lead.

Zeng Zhiwei said with a smile: "You are so angry that you are confused. The son of Brother Jiu (Chen Zemin) is a handsome guy. He just debuted and doesn't need much money. He is perfect for you!"

Wang Jing thought for a moment, and a young and handsome face flashed in his mind. He said in surprise, "It's quite suitable!"

He immediately hung up the phone and contacted Yinghuang Entertainment. The matter was quickly finalized and the crew of "Atlantic Rim" was put into preparation.

Jiang Heng naturally also got the news that Fatty Wang was going to shoot "Atlantic Rim", but he could only take note of it and find another opportunity to do it.

After all, it is really difficult to define reference and plagiarism. Besides, he is really busy at the moment. The script of "Splitting the Mountain to Save Mother" is still being revised, and the crew of "Hero" has already started filming, waiting for him to go there to shoot the "Broken Sword" scene.

Jiang Heng made some arrangements and went to the crew with his assistant team.

The result is the climax of the drama, the decisive battle between Wuming and Canjian at the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

This scene was extremely difficult to shoot, as both actors had to hang on wires.

Zhang Yimou has extremely high requirements for the final effect of the film. After every NG, he has to wait until the lake returns to calm before shooting again.

It was originally thought that Jiang Heng, who had no martial arts foundation, would need at least a few days to adapt to wire suspension. However, it only took him more than an hour to transition from a pure novice to a "veteran actor".

During the break, many people from the crew gathered around Jiang Heng and gave him all kinds of compliments.

Jiang Heng's coordination and balance abilities are so strong that even if he doesn't make movies and only acts in action films, he will become a kung fu superstar.

Jet Li was not trying to get close to her, he just felt that he had never seen anyone with such great "talent".

I couldn't help but ask: "How did you adapt so quickly?"

Jiang Hengxin said, of course it’s because of the “super microscopic computer”!
Because of its super "calculation" and "self-deduction" capabilities, this thing can not only be used for special effects, but also gives Jiang Heng's eyes powerful dynamic vision.

To put it simply, like a cat, everything seems to be in "slow motion".

Of course, because his physical fitness is still at the average level, and he has not received any professional combat training.

Jiang Heng estimated that he should be stronger than ordinary people. He would still not be able to beat a boxing champion like Zhou Bili or someone who has practiced martial arts for many years like Jet Li.

He smiled and said, "Maybe, it's innate!"

"Your talent will be wasted if you don't practice martial arts!" Jet Li felt a little regretful because he understood how important talent is.

Jiang Heng said with a smile: "When I was a kid, I was busy playing and didn't think about this!"

Jet Li said, "To be honest, your talent is definitely one in a million. It's not too late to practice now. By the way, how old are you?"

"Uh, born in the 80s, 22 years old!"

"22?"

Not only Jet Li, but everyone around him had a look of astonishment on their faces.

Although I knew Jiang Heng was not very old, I didn't expect him to be so young. He hasn't even graduated from college, but he has already starred in several international blockbusters and is a super rich man with a net worth of hundreds of millions of US dollars.

Jet Li said: "At your age, it's not too late to learn martial arts! Are you interested? I can teach you."

Seeing Jiang Heng hesitate, he said, "You don't have to call me teacher. I'll just practice with you for fun!"

After saying that, he stood up and performed a set of his best boxing moves, then said with a smile, "Would you like to try it?"

"Just give it a try, Director Jiang!" some girls cheered.

"Come here!" a girl said in a soft voice.

The atmosphere was so tense that Jiang Heng had no choice but to stand up, walk to the center of the venue and close his eyes. The footage of Jet Li boxing instantly appeared in front of his eyes, clear and coherent.

After thinking it over two or three times, he finally stood up and performed a set of moves. Surprisingly, he performed it smoothly and every move was correct, which stunned the onlookers.

Jet Li wanted to praise him and give some pointers, but he saw Jiang Heng close his eyes and play it again.

This time, his movements were smoother and more precise, and coupled with his upright posture and young and handsome face, he even had the temperament of a master even more than the "Kung Fu Emperor" himself.

"Fuck! This is a one in a million genius!"
