The May 4th Youth Day in 2020 coincides with the beginning of summer. Although the new crown pneumonia is still raging, we might as well talk about lighter topics. After all, people are always looking forward.
Under the confusion of my mind, I revisited "Shaolin Soccer" again, and found some small details, dedicated to those who like this movie.
1. The various postures of the Shaolin disciples shown in the film's title are actually the postures they took when they recovered Shaolin Kungfu when they finally broke out after being bullied by the auto mechanic played by Feng Mianheng in the later feature film;
2. When Qiangxiong, played by the fourth brother, said to Ming Feng, played by Uncle Da, "The person who broke your leg was arranged by me", Uncle Da's wry smile was heart-wrenching, and the laughter after the wry smile was a cry. of;
3. When Uncle Da came out of his fourth brother, he was the only one in ragged clothes, and all the people who came and went by him were in suits and leather shoes;
4. When I walked to the street and saw Uncle Da who was playing football on the electronic screen, there were tears in his eyes, but they didn't flow out;
5. Uncle Da said "Fight, kill, find someone else, I have a higher education". In fact, Zhou Xingchi said similar words in another movie "Domestic Lingling Paint" directed by Zhou Xingchi before, but That movie is one of the rare movies that he did not collaborate with Uncle Da;
6. When Zhou Xingchi was wearing tattered shoes with open toes and watched the new shoes in the cupboard being driven away, among the people in suits and leather shoes passing by, one person was wearing ill-fitting leather shoes with exposed heels, and the other was still wearing dirty and old shoes. slippers;
7. In the steamed bread shop where Zhao Wei works, almost all the people who come and go to buy food are the hardworking people at the bottom, but the name of the steamed bread shop is "Sweet Heart Steamed Bread";
8. Uncle Da saw Zhou Xingchi urinating everywhere before the fight behind the wall, but the slogan on the wall was "No urinating anywhere";
9. Zhou Xingchi and his senior brother were bullied in the bar and did not dare to fight back, but they cleaned up a group of people who bullied them in the countryside, and even robbed the only person he did not beat for 30 cents, maybe because The bar is where they work, and unemployment is worse than being beaten;
10. When Zhou Xingchi was teaching a group of people who bullied him at the bar, the slogan on the wall was "Happy to go to work, safe and sound", it should have been "come home", but these three words were not filmed in the movie Come in;
11. The stunt of the senior master played by Huang Yifei is iron head kung fu, but he chooses to work in a bar and is often shot in the head with a beer bottle; the second senior master played by Mo Meilin has a stunt of a whirlwind, but he chooses to wash the toilet in a restaurant. Bowl; the stunt of the third senior brother played by Tian Qiwen is a golden bell hood and iron cloth shirt, but he chooses to engage in stock trading on the stock market trading floor; the stunt of the fourth senior brother played by Chen Guokun is a ghost catcher, which is a jobless state; Zhou Xingchi's stunt of the fifth senior brother is vigorous King Kong Legs chooses to collect waste products; while the stunt of the sixth junior brother played by Lin Zicong is to float on water, but his job is a tally clerk in a supermarket; Zhao Wei's stunt is Tai Chi, but he chooses to knead steamed buns in a steamed bun shop;
12. When the third senior brother scolded Zhou Xingchi and Uncle Da, he said, "Damn, I can eat hundreds of thousands of dollars per second, and I will eat chopped noodles with you?" But in the end, when he looked at the group photo of the senior brothers, what he ate was chopped meal. noodle;
13. When the fourth brother asked Uncle Da to wipe his shoes, his shoes were directly snatched by the brothers of Zhou Xingchi. At this time, the fourth brother's socks were also open toes;
14. After Ah Mei was dismissed by the proprietress because the steamed buns she made were bitter and salty, Zhou Xingchi picked up the steamed buns that were thrown away like garbage, rinsed them with water, licked them, and then took a big bite. bitter and salty, but did not spit it out;
"Shaolin Soccer" itself is Stephen Chow's first film to be released in mainland China in the true sense. Before that, almost all of his films were released only in Hong Kong, and this was also the first film he planned to shoot after he completely broke with Xiang Huaqiang. So he had to look around for various investors when he was making the movie, but this movie was blocked by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television at that time.
Today, many lines and bridges in the movie can still be seen on various occasions, such as:
1. Sweeping the floor is just my superficial work, my real identity is a research monk.
2. What about beautiful girls, I am a scholar.
3. If you want to spread Shaolin Kungfu to the world, you have to talk about packaging.
4. If you don't have a dream, what's the difference between it and salted fish?
5. I go up and down hundreds of thousands of dollars a second, and play football with you guys for no reason. I'm sorry, you know that I am so straight; Forgive me for being so straight; in the end, I have to win the game for no reason. This probability is lower than zero!
6. As soon as Stephen Chow finished saying "I'll introduce you to a fierce man", the fourth senior hurriedly closed the door and came out in a suit and leather shoes, and then asked: "This is, what's your name?" The following words can be regarded as a textbook "Who in the financial world doesn't know Brother Feng, look at his IT style."
7. It happens that the driver is on vacation today, and I happened to lend the car to someone else today. I happened to just pull my wallet on it again. I can't invite you to dinner today.
8. Why is my father not Li Ka-shing? Why do I lose my hair when I'm so handsome, and you two are so ugly, why don't you lose your hair?
9. Those are just false names, like floating clouds.
10. Football is not played by one person.
11. Be confident, you are the best, you know?
12. The earth is very dangerous, you hurry back to Mars.
13. Be broad-minded, look forward, and never hold grudges, OK?
14. Match-fixing and 40-0.
15. When Uncle Da came to the rooftop where Zhou Xingchi lived, he said enviously, "I didn't expect you, a rubbish guy, to live in a "loft" on the rooftop on the 59th floor. You have a good taste in life. Now this kind of unit is very popular, I'm looking for it. I haven't been able to find it for a long time. It's just that this air-conditioning trough is a bit noisy, it's okay, can you put another room in your place?"
What's more interesting is that the jobs of the brothers in the film after the stunts are set are all related to their own stunts. For example, the third brother used his golden bell hood and iron cloth shirt to fake suicide to scare him away because he lost money. The investors who came to the door; the fourth senior brother used his stunt ghost catching hand to be a pickpocket to steal things; the second senior brother used his stunt whirlwind to pretend to be a disabled person to beg for all the bad tricks. The comedy effect was very good, but Zhou Xingchi finally rejected it, and his explanation was: "I think people who learn Kung Fu should not rely on the foundation of Kung Fu to do things that harm the world, even if they have no food, sleep at home, Washing dishes, flushing toilets, and filling financial experts with professionals, but you can’t use no food as an excuse to do bad things. I’d rather give up dramatic effects than teach bad kids!” To be honest, I was very moved.
Many people say that the fourth brother played Qiangxiong is too bad and is mean and unkind to Mingfeng played by Uncle Da, but don't forget that when Mingfeng bullied Qiangxiong, he was always mean and unkind for a long time. The only difference is that Mingfeng After experiencing the ups and downs in life, I tried to be self-reliant, but the strong hero is still dominating the world.
Those with deep cravings have shallow secrets.
Forgot to mention, Stephen Chow won the Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Visual Effects, Best Sound Effects and Outstanding Youth at the 21st Hong Kong Film Awards Director Award, this year, he is 40 years old, standing on the last tail of the youth stage.
