Hong Kong film industry knows that Tsui Hark is time-consuming to create, but "The Unbeaten Again" is released in Hong Kong on January 21, 1993. It was only half a year before "The Unbeaten of the East: Unbeaten of the East" was launched on July 29, 1992.
On the one hand, it was because Tsui Hark was busy back then, and was preparing to film "Huang Feihong 3: The Lion King Competition", and was also the co-director of "Two Dragons Club". He also served as the producer and screenwriter of " New Crane Divine Needle ". However, at this time, the Taiwanese film dealer called and wanted to film the third "The Smiling Proud Wanderer" immediately, and the schedule was selected. The Hong Kong film industry relied on the capital of Taiwan Province at that time, and the funder dared not refuse to follow the words, and the film was taken in a hurry.
On the other hand, since the first movie "The Smiling Proud Wanderer" received a box office of 16.05 million, the box office of "The Smiling Proud Wanderer: The Oriental Unbeaten" soared to 34.46 million. After the two movies became popular, there were many followers on the market. This is a chronic disease in the Hong Kong film market. Whoever becomes popular will imitate whoever is immediately available. In 1993, everyone competed to shoot martial arts, and more than 50 martial arts movies were released in one year.
Tsui Hark and Cheng Xiaodong were very unhappy with their peers’ imitation. This movie does not have Linghu Chong because after filming Huang Feihong 3, Jet Li is so popular that it is very popular. It is not wise to set up your own business to film "Fang Shiyu".
and Lin Qingxia 's Dongfang Bubai was a great success, so "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer 3", which is "The Storm and Unbeaten Again", simply forced Dongfang Bubai to revive. There is no Ren Yingying or Ren Woxing in this movie, but the Jianghu Dongfang Bubai is a rampant street: even the singers in the Navy military camp are all in the style of Dongfang Bubai.
At the beginning of the video, Yu Rongguang said to Brigitte Lin: "Since you disappeared, many people have pretended to be you and strived to dominate the world." Brigitte Lin replied: "Since my remnants in the world have not yet been fulfilled, you can take me back out of the world to stop them pretending to be Dongfang Bubai!"
Video, Dongfang Bubai hung the banner of "East and West are invincible", and both East and West are invincible! The fact that the true Dongfang Bubai, played by Brigitte Lin, returned to the world and eliminated the fake Dongfang Bubai, was also a sarcasm to his followers.
Although the story has been criticized by many people and is considered to be the weakest in the "Swordsman" trilogy, it does not prevent it from becoming a classic and famous overseas:
There is a character in the Japanese cartoon "Mobile Fighting G Gundam" called Dongfang Bubai. His horse's name is "The Wind and Clouds Resurrection".
This film has many elements, including lily love, the evil Japanese warrior, and the righteous and evil officials who are obsessed with the "Invincible in the East" are both good and evil. The plot tells the story of Dongfang Bubai (played by Brigitte Lin) pretending to die after being defeated by Linghu Chong on the Black Wood Cliff, but he is not in the world, but there is still the legend of "her" everywhere in the world. Qianhu Gu Changfeng (played by Yu Rongguang) was ordered to lead the Spanish fleet to Heimu Cliff to salvage the supplies of the Dutch shipwreck, but the Spanish aim was to open the coffin to seize the Sunflower Book.
Gu Changfeng admired Dongfang Bubai and prevented the Spaniard from being rescued by Dongfang Bubai, who was disguised, and sealed the acupoints. Gu Changfeng recognized Dongfang Bubai, told him that Dongfang Bubai was everywhere, and advised him to go out again to clean up the fake. Dongfang Bubai promised to only clean up counterfeits and not kill people anymore.
At the same time, Dongfang Bubai’s old concubine Xue Qianxun (played by Wang Zuxian) pretended to be Dongfang Bubai and led the Sun and Moon God Sect to confront the Japanese ronin. Xue Qianxun reorganized the God Sect just to wait for his lover to return.
Dongfang Bubai killed all the fakes and found Xue Qianxun, seriously injured Xue Qianxun and broke off her relationship. Gu Changfeng rescued Xue Qianxun and fell in love with Xue Qianxun while getting along; but Xue Qianxun only cared about Dongfang Bubai.
Dongfang Bubai's questioning of his own value after pretending to die, but this time he was immersed in the world again, but in the end he became a demon with one thought and wanted to unify the world again. In order to stop Dongfang Bubai from leading the navy to fight. Xue Qianxun, who was already seriously injured in the fight, died, and Dongfang Bubai regretted it.
Jiu-hyun played by Joey Wong is the original character of " The Invincible Storm of the Oriental ". There is no such person in the original novel.Jin Yong was furious because Tsui Hark made Brigitte Lin play Dongfang Bubai in "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer: Dongfang Bubai". This time Tsui Hark made another Xue Qianxun. At this time, Jin Yong had given up treatment and was powerless to stop it. The character arrangement of
has no direct relationship with the original work. It is completely a fan of Dongfang Bubai's collapse of "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer".
Wang Zuxian's Xue Qianxun has many cross-dressing scenes of Dongfang Bubai, all of which were specially arranged for Joey Wong. Although the name Xue Qianxun is very melodious, it is obviously not the style of Jin Yong's name, and Xu's heart is very elegant.
Those who have read Jin Yong's novels will notice that the characters in Jin Yong's works have no rare surnames except for the compound surnames such as Linghu, etc., and use a large number of common surnames, such as Ren, Yue, Guo, Yang, Zhang, Zhao, Zhou, Chen, Hu, Qiao, etc.
The color of Jin Yong is completely concealed by Tsui Hark's subversive magical modification: the original Black Wood Cliff is inland, and the movie turns into an island, and the sea warships and artillery starts war.
Japanese wooden warships can also dive.
lines are enough to anger Jin Yong to death. The Spanish at the beginning: "You have qigong, I have science!"
Dongfang Bubai: "You have science, I have amazing skills!
Have you felt Tsui Hark's anti-counterfeiting creation angry?
The main highlight of this film is the role of the two goddesses.
Joey Wong's Xue Qianxun appeared and played the role of the back-dressing Dongfang Bubai's appearance, with gray eyes, more deeper than Brigitte Lin's Love and tenderness.
Xue Qianxun puts his feet on the table. This is a famous scene in Joey Wong's film career. Being handsome and powerful can conquer people in an instant.
Xue Qianxun imitates Dongfang Bubai's clothing. His needlework and thread killing skills. He and his concubine drink and have fun, but the more fulfilled he becomes, the lonelier he is: Is your beloved right in front of you? But where is my lover?
Xue Qianxun was seriously injured by Dongfang Bubai. Gu Changfeng asked Xue Qianxun if she must hate Dongfang Bubai very much? Xue Qianxun had tears in his eyes and said calmly: "I pity him for being led by fate. "
The true self that Dongfang Bubai has always wanted has never been realized. He castrated himself for the Sunflower Book, and after he was trained, he was led by his own experience. He wanted to escape from his fate again and again.
ran to the Japanese ronin camp and sneaked into the songbird to experience the life of ordinary people.
cursed his reputation as "Dongfang Bubai" when eliminating counterfeiting, but he was always repeating the same mistakes, just like the poem in his film:
days The storm and clouds are coming out of us. Once we enter the world, the years urge us,
The emperor's tyranny is talking and laughing, and life is drunk.
holds a sword and crosses the rider and waves the ghost rain, the bones are like birds flying through the mountain,
The world is like a trendy man like water, and only sighs that a few people in the world are back.
"The Invincible Storm Resurrection" is the theme song of "The Invincible Storm in the East" composed by Li Zongsheng , written by Li Manting, and " Laughing in the World" sung by Chen Shuhua . "Laughing in the World" Cantonese version is called "Make a "Really Me" hits the theme of the film very well.
The film Lin Qingxia's Dongfang Bubai has called herself a big devil, rejecting intimate relationships, and is moody. Seeing Xue Qianxun pretending to be herself, she thought it was betrayal and almost killed her; afterwards, Yu Rongguang fell in love with Xue Qianxun, Dongfang Bubai robbed him. He hesitated and repeated, but he was hurt by love every time.
The most classic scene in this film is the 26-second intimate scene between the two beauties Lin Qingxia and Joey Wong. Make this film the most alternative martial arts classic. Tsui Hark confirmed the director who is the best at filming women, making the world a woman The world.

1993 is the year of Hong Kong martial arts movies and a turning point in the decline of Hong Kong movies from prosperity to decline. Taiwanese film merchants that Hong Kong movies rely on cut off their capital chain this year, and the film market bubble was serious and piracy was rampant.
1993 martial arts films, and the film finally only earned 11.24 million box office. This "anti-counterfeiting" campaign lost box office and reputation, and in the end there was no follow-up, Tsui Hark's Smiling Proud Wanderer series ended. The era of real beauty has come to an end. Facing the assembly line beauties on the screen now, they can no longer find the movie-watching experience they had back then, and miss the era when stars gathered together! (written by: Mankei Wu)
