December 13, 2009 - Storm Warriors - Ekin and Aaron -After 10 Years Reprise Roles
Even if you waited another ten years you wouldn't find two actors to compare with Aaron and Ekin to star in Storm Warriors 《風雲Ⅱ》 as partners. These two men view romance and career over the last 10 years each of them complacent., yet both are still are kings of the silver screen. The last ten years have been a double edged sword. Both have experienced career growth and unexpected lows, in this they are similar. But a person's life has multiple ten year spans. Aaron and Ekin, the same as fans view Storm Warriors a sufficiently long time to wait for.
At this distance from the first time, Aaron becomes Striding Cloud and Ekin becomes Whispering Wind. They are repeatedly asked about ten years before, Ekin said, " Ten years before I finished filming the first episode, I wholeheartedly believed that we would immediately begin to film the the sequel, didn't estimate ten years. However ten years later I haven't released Whispering Wind, because in the first episode his character wasn't developed so without the sequel I wasn't satisfied. I continuously fought for it. I heard that Daniel Lam wanted to start to write Storm Riders 2, In the story would explain Whispering Wind's entry into evil. I was excited. I originally thought that to play the part of Wind becoming evil would be very easy to act, I little knew how difficult it would be. The Peng brothers directed me to be myself as the framework and then develop the structure. By film start afraid of the movie's build up of the Peng Brothers. Sure enough give them the movie. I estimate not feel able to enter evil and rush to look in the mirror. How can we sit and be resigned to our fate?
Aaron said " Ten years ago the role I played was not complicated, I wore a blue wig, I need not act, I was cold and detached already. This time the role has blood and has flesh. I not only act against an opponent I have to act against a stage set, act with weapons. Ten years ago I was a singer, I carried an idol status burden to the acting. Now I am very clear, I am an actor entirely not carry any burden. The actors work against a blue screen it is an delusion, to make the fantasy.
Rule #1 won best actor for Ekin at the South Korean Puchon International Film Festival. Ekin always likes a challenge. " Actually in the 430 Shuttle decade I had already filmed against a blue screen. Now it is different, the blue screen is very big, becomes an industry, compared with Ultraman where each frame was very smooth and easy, the first Storm Riders was real scenery. But ten years later, already cannot use the same techniques."
Aaron has won Golden Horse prizes, he also has filmed blue screen before and found it easy. " We both want to do, we want to do the action, want to bury the special effects. but hacking with the sword all day is difficult, not enough willpower so leave things half finished. But the Peng brothers are creative, with heart and soul believe open ears and eyes to new martial arts world., make a person out of components.
Both men have powerful arms, always have females stay with them. Striding Cloud's Muse stays dumbly at his side, but Cloud is cold and indifferent. In reality Aaron with Lynn Xiong had a gossip scandal, but Aaron refused to speak about this restricted area, "Talk about the movie is the main topic, many movies feelings are based on fantasy, it is not necessary to have experienced it in reality before you can act. You accumulate real experiences, then you can naturally express feelings, and don't need to consider so much."
Whispering Wind's love is more romantic, compared with Aaron he is more able. Wind's heart is ice clear, sky falls, not alarmed. "My relationship is like a second dream, like Wind he starts from a letter. Send a love letter and then meet. At first not know if have the opportunity to meet. I think the writing is very romantic. In reality this is very rare, except perhaps for remote place love.
Looking back ten years Aaron and Ekin already have passed confusing times. Aaron has won Golden Horse award as and experienced bottlenecks. " Life has highs and lows, I have a kind of self- discipline, in the low times I take on advanced studies, a person matures and can then break through to the high peak. Life is a long distance race, but you don't know where the finish line is." Ekin completely agrees, " Favorable circumstances balance adversity, life is not complete, the process of living is most precious, I pay and I enjoy.
Sure, when can view abjectness as free time. Like wise England had importance in the World History arena, the most powerful prime minister. He replaced former prime minister Neville Chamberlain, he name was of course Winston Churchill, who is accepted as the 20th century man of the moment.
