Ching-Ying Lam, as one of the classic characters in Hong Kong zombie movies, we all prefer to call him Uncle Jiu. His acting in the film made us almost think that he was from maoshan taoist.
However, Uncle Jiu's performance is only glamorous in movies; In real life, Uncle Jiu doesn't know anything about Taoism at all, nor is he a person who devotes himself to learning Taoism.
Personally, Uncle Jiu's appearance in the film gives us the feeling that he has different styles and moves, mainly because of the following two reasons:
The first reason: Ching-Ying Lam is Wu Di, who was born in the Hong Kong film industry. Many actors are members of the Hong Family Office, and Ching-Ying Lam is no exception. In Hongjia class, many actors know some martial arts, and because they have practiced martial arts, their skills are very agile and they can complete many difficult movements.
It is because of the foundation of martial arts that Ching-Ying Lam can give us a professional feeling when shooting zombie movies.
Many flowing movements look very standard and beautiful; Coupled with their own integrity and unsmiling personality, it is even more convincing.
The second reason: the action has been shot countless times, and every successful movie can not be separated from the hard work of the actors; I think Ching-Ying Lam's zombie series movies can achieve such success because of his hard work behind the scenes.
Many difficult shots can't be shot at one time; In order to achieve the desired effect, it may be necessary to repeat the shooting many times before finally passing the customs.
As an audience, we only saw the action in one go in front of the stage, but ignored the hard remake process of the actors behind the scenes.
In addition to the above two reasons, there is also Uncle Jiu's explanation of Feng Shui knowledge, which makes people feel that he is very professional, just like a real Taoist.
