Chinese entertainment starts with Hong Shixian

Chapter 503 The movie's box office was high, but Hua Yi couldn't smile.
With Jing Tian's appearance, the lives of the three tomb raiders in the United States are revealed in more detail.

However, it wasn't a good life.

Being in a foreign land, all his knowledge was useless, and he was in dire financial straits and destitute.

As a man, Hu Bayi, played by Qi Hui, has an awkward relationship with Shirley Yang. Although he could live a better life by relying on Shirley Yang, he is too ashamed to do so.

This part is quite depressing; there are no grand scenes, only the poverty and embarrassment of the tomb raiders.

To keep the audience engaged, Qi Hui and Guo Fan discussed making the focus on Wang Pangzi, played by Huang Bo.

Let him play the clown and make people laugh. As for how to make people laugh... that's actually very simple.

According to the original script, the reason why the tomb raider, who was in a foreign country, could not use all his skills was because the sixteen-character Yin-Yang secret technique of locating auspicious sites did not work in the United States.

However, Qi Hui suggested revising this passage to read: "What I have learned throughout my life is not because I am incompetent, but because there are no ancient tombs in the United States."

I also told a few American historical jokes, like the four thinnest books: British cookbooks, Italian war heroes, and American history.

What else... ancient tombs can be dug up, but there's no gold or silver treasure, just Native American scalps.

Or perhaps, besides the Native American scalp, there were also serious criminal judgments from the Vatican or something similar.

They talked about hell, and surprisingly, it was quite effective!
Back when we were just entering the video internet era, American jokes and American hell jokes weren't as popular yet, but these few jokes made the audience laugh out loud.

The scene where Hu Bayi and his two tomb raiders parted ways to distribute the loot, in this atmosphere, wasn't so oppressive.

After parting ways, the story officially enters the main plot. Fatty Wang receives a commission with a pattern of spider lilies on it and goes to explore the tomb alone.

With Fatty Wang gone, Qi Hui and Jing Tian, ​​who remain, will need to use dialogue to set the stage for the upcoming climax.

This part is a bit long, and to make the movie interesting, the focus here can only be on Jing Tian.

Wearing a long black leather jacket and jeans, he exudes a dashing and elegant air, looking both handsome and beautiful.

Bored, she picked up the Vajra Umbrella, played with it briefly, and inadvertently showed off her skills.

As for Hu Bayi, played by Qi Hui... he is the main character of the story, and his current character is lazy and slovenly. He also mentions a few terms related to geomancy and feng shui.

He's not handsome anymore.

Of course, there's more to see than just Jing Tian's handsome looks; there's also Hu Bayi's flashback adventure. In the Japanese underground base, the young Hu Bayi witnesses the resurrection of a mummified Japanese soldier.

The group fought a battle with the resurrected Japanese soldiers, and in the end, the base exploded, leaving only Hu and Wang alive in a grand scene.

After the groundwork was laid, the story officially entered the main tomb raiding plot.
Fatty Wang and Big Gold Tooth were the first to return to China, where they worked with the Global Mining Group to find tombs using explosives.

Liu Xiaoqing plays the master.

There was also a Japanese devil named Yoko with an arrogant and domineering face.
And a few other arrogant and reckless foreign devils.

Meanwhile, Hu Bayi and Shirley Yang are heading towards Fatty Wang, and the tomb raiding trio is about to reunite and join forces.

This scene excited the audience; they were finally going to raid the tomb!

After reading "Ghost Blows Out the Light" for so long, tomb raiding has finally appeared!
The film gradually advances the plot, but viewers who are immersed in the film do not find it boring.

Later, Big Gold Tooth exclaimed, "This is the real tomb raiding style!"

The entire venue erupted in cheers, with many fans of the original novel slapping their thighs in suppressed excitement.

One climactic scene after another.

Finally, the red light of the red spider lilies shone, and the scene of the Japanese soldiers being resurrected reappeared.

Twenty years later, Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang no longer felt the fear they once had; instead, they felt anger and hatred.
One picked up a climbing axe, the other shoveled an entrenching tool, and charged towards the mummified Japanese soldiers.

Shirley Yang wields the Vajra Umbrella, sometimes transforming it into a sword for slashing and sweeping attacks, and sometimes into a shield to protect Hu Bayi.

"Okay!" "Let's get him...!"

"Good fight!"

"..."

The audience was excited and thrilled; killing the Japanese devils was so satisfying to watch!
According to the original script, this place is a bunch of fire skeleton monsters.
To be honest, I'm a little confused. Those monsters didn't appear in the previous stories, so how did they suddenly come?
Therefore, at Qi Hui's suggestion, he discussed with Hua Yi about changing this part.

At the time, Hua Yi was very unwilling; I really don't know what she was thinking!
"Master, you must leave quickly!"

On the screen, the only surviving Japanese soldier, Yoko, whispered...
Holding two short axes, she faced so many mummified old Japanese soldiers, yet her face remained as arrogant as ever.

But before he could finish speaking, and before the qigong master played by Liu Xiaoqing could even leave, two Type 38 swords were thrust at Yoko.
Yoko, wielding two short axes, parried a couple of blows, and then…

Phew!

With a bayonet piercing her body, Yoko looked on in disbelief.

Swish!
At that moment, a military green entrenching tool came flying in.

Qi Hui swung his sword wildly, severing the heads of two dried-up old Japanese soldiers in succession.

But the entrenching tool's momentum didn't wane, and it cleaved through the neck of the Japanese soldier, Yoko.
Phew!

Yoko clutched her neck, blood gushing out, and collapsed in disbelief, her eyes wide open in death.

Immediately, a commotion erupted from the audience, with excited voices faintly audible.

Cool!
This female Japanese soldier is so arrogant. Does she really think she's invincible just because she has two axes?
On screen, the villain played by Liu Xiaoqing is still struggling.
She shakily pulled out her revolver and aimed it at Qi Hui, who had just killed Yoko, with a look of terror on her face.
But... she was old and sick, and in her terror, she couldn't even hold a gun properly.
Qi Hui slowly walked over, and when he stood in front of her, she hadn't even pried open the hammer of her revolver.

Qi Hui snatched the revolver and pried open the hammer: "That's not how you use a gun. I'll teach you."

boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, the trigger was pulled, and a bullet pierced the scarred head.
Liu Xiaoqing's role was a complete flop!
The audience slapped their thighs in excitement again, having long wanted to kill this charlatan and qigong master!
The audience felt no discomfort with the murder scene; the villain was well-developed and infuriating, making the killing very satisfying.
As for whether it fits the character's setting... Hu Bayi is indeed a PLA company commander in the original setting.
However, in the established story, he retired because he killed prisoners in a fit of rage, violating discipline.

What's wrong with him killing a few Japanese soldiers and fake Japanese soldiers now?
Above the tomb, Shirley Yang swung on a rope and snatched the spider lily.

Next up is a girl vs. girl, Hu Bayi's current girlfriend vs. Hu Bayi's first love.
This part is also very interesting, but everything ends when Jing Tian shatters the meteorite called the Other Shore Flower.

The audience breathed a sigh of relief, feeling quite pleased.

Tomb raiding, eeriness, battles, struggles, comedy, treasure, gold... the gold is with Big Gold Tooth.

In the movie, he was shot by Liu Xiaoqing, but Huang Jin blocked the bullet and he was not injured.

But Fatty Wang didn't know that, and insisted on carrying him and a huge pile of gold for a long distance, exhausting himself to death.

In the end, Big Gold Tooth was exposed and almost got strangled to death by Fatty Wang.

fun!
Everything that "Ghost Blows Out the Light" has, "Mojin: The Lost Legend" has too. The story is complete, all the elements are there, and it has everything that fans of the original work want to see.

Even if you're not a fan of the original novel, or haven't read the book, it won't affect your enjoyment of the film at all.

Yu Dong, Wang Changtian, Ling Hong, and other executives from the film and television company exchanged glances, thinking to themselves, "Qi Hui's movie is going to make money again!"
Yu Dong was a little annoyed; he couldn't stand seeing those two old bastards, Hua Yi and Hua Yi, living so comfortably.

Wang Changtian didn't really care. His company, Enlight Media, was one of the investors, so the higher the box office, the better!
Looking at his colleagues with their various expressions, Wang Zongjun slowly revealed a look of satisfaction and pleasure. It seemed the movie's box office would be quite good!

However... he couldn't laugh anymore.

If I remember correctly, when it was being produced, in order to have enough funds for special effects, Guo Fan paid the actors a salary, and most of the money went to box office revenue sharing.

In other words, regardless of the box office performance of this movie, everyone except the original investors, actors like Qi Hui and Guo Fan, and the director will be able to get a share of the profits.

"Damn it..." Wang Zongjun couldn't help but curse under his breath. If he had known this would happen, he should have stopped Guo Fan back then!
