Chapter 799: .It depends on the order

"Yifan, hook us up this time. If you don't get some dry goods, you can't do it." Lin Tao is not inferior to any giant, and the relationship with Wang Yifan is fairly harmonious.
"Yes, Director Wang, you called us all over here, but you can't thunder and rain." Wu Han also said with a smile.
"Ok, let's come one by one?" Wang Yifan came prepared, and naturally he was ready.
"It seems that Director Wang has really prepared good things." The other directors couldn't help but brighten their eyes.
Wang Yifan's story ideas have always been enthusiastic.
Take "King Kong" as an example. When the world's mainstream monster movies have formed a mature routine, Wang Yifan was able to find a new way to wrap the monster movie with love, and then created a unique monster like "King Kong" Blockbuster.
It also created the new director Chen Shaojun.
"Director Cao has always insisted on preserving the characteristics of the old port film. This persistence is admirable." Wang Yifan looked at Cao Meng and said.
Although the golden age of Hong Kong movies has long passed, today's Hong Kong movies can be said to be increasingly declining.
But Cao Meng still insisted. His films still more or less retain some of the characteristics of old Hong Kong films.
This is certainly a habit, but it is also a kind of persistence.
In fact, each region has its own characteristics, such as on Treasure Island and Hong Kong Island.
Unlike the previous unwillingness to innovate while guarding Laogang films, Cao Meng just wants to retain the last bit of feelings in Laogang films, so it is worthy of recognition.
Because of its geographical relationship, Hong Kong Island itself is only the scale of a city, so in many cases, it is inevitable to be limited.
Therefore, filming historical films on Hong Kong Island usually makes a lot of jokes, but it does not mean that Hong Kong films have no characteristics or advantages.
In fact, Hong Kong Island’s gangster movies and gangster movies have always been unique.
Due to the reason of one country, two systems, many types of films cannot be shot in the Mainland, but they can be relaxed appropriately on Hong Kong Island.
"Hey, it's just a conservative person who hasn't come out of the golden age of Hong Kong movies, I'm ashamed!" Cao Meng sighed.
The demise of Hong Kong movies was caused by many factors.
"I have been watching old movies some time ago, and suddenly I have an idea. In fact, there are still many things in Hong Kong movies that our current film market lacks, but few can reproduce the essence of old Hong Kong movies. "Wang Yifan sighed.
Hong Kong films can be said to occupy a pivotal position among Chinese films.
Although the market is no longer there, the generations who grew up from the golden age of Hong Kong movies still miss the old Hong Kong movies very much.
It’s just that many film directors on Hong Kong Island nowadays no longer take movies seriously. More people are shooting old Hong Kong films, with the feeling of Hong Kong films, but in fact, they are just eager for quick success. go.
On the other hand, film directors on Hong Kong Island, because the domestic film market is immature, relying on their advantages and various scams and abductions have also made their reputations completely foul after the market has matured.
Whatever a straw hat is 6,000 yuan, that group of filmmakers on Hong Kong Island can do it. This is playing people as fools, and as a result, now they have become real fools.
Investors are no longer in favor, so Hong Kong Island movies are getting worse and worse. Every year, they can only rely on fried rice and use some of the classic titles of the past, but the results are some shit.
It can only be said that the spirit of research back then is rarely seen among these Hong Kong Island filmmakers.
"Yes, I remember that the reason why I became a director back then was because of the Hong Kong movies I watched in the video hall. Unfortunately, now... the time has changed, and many things are different." He Jun also tolerated. Can't help shaking his head.
"Actually, I want to say that, Director Cao, the decline of Hong Kong films is one thing, but filmmakers on Hong Kong Island, at this time, still put on a high posture, some of them are living in the past, such as the Academy Awards, ha ha !" Chen Hang has always been unfamiliar with the filmmakers on Hong Kong Island, and it can even be said to have hatred.
Because once, Chen Hang was also pitted.
"Yeah, some people are starting to do nothing, a straw hat of 6,000 yuan, and a safe box, fooling ghosts?" He Jun also added.
Cao Meng blushed a little. In fact, the early Cao Meng had done this before, because they found that it was really bad.
"This is not the most disgusting thing. The most disgusting thing is that half of the photo was taken, telling investors that the budget was used up, either to add money or not to end. As a result, now, the reputation is completely stinking." Lin Tao also shook his head. Tao.
It can be said that this kind of thing has happened frequently in the past ten years. The Chinese film market broke out, but filmmakers failed to follow it.
So it gave the film people on Hong Kong Island a mentality that they can live in strange goods.
Of course, you can't knock down a piece with one stick, but there are more black sheep.
"Well, Director Cao, I wrote a book. Well, it is a Hong Kong-style police and criminal film. Is Director Cao interested?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.
Of course Cao Meng is interested, if he is not interested, he will not come.
"This is the outline of the script. Director Cao can look at it." Wang Yifan is really generous this time, and all the classics of Hong Kong films from previous lives are presented.
Not only Cao Meng is interested, but other directors are also quite curious.
Especially He Jun!
He Jun fell in love with police and criminal films and has always been studying this aspect. In fact, it can be said that he was also influenced by Hong Kong films to some extent.
Among Hong Kong films, the police and criminal films can be said to be mainstream films, and there have been many popular police and criminal films.
What Wang Yifan gave to Cao Meng was the classic "Dark War" in Hong Kong films.
"Dark War" is actually not the same as many Hong Kong police and gangster movies. It is a rare and unrestrained gangster movie in Hong Kong movies. The film does not have the chase and stunts that are common in police and gangster movies. Instead, the two heroes fight their wits and courage all the way. There is a type of police and gangster movies in which a savvy policeman sets off a more savvy thief, because only when confronting a master can victory appear to be more valuable. The confrontation between police and gangsters in "Unknown Wars" belongs to this category. In the film, the police and gangsters are elegant and smart, the image is very bright, and the duel is very interesting. In the confrontation of intelligence, there is always a winner, and in the confrontation of acting, it is a win-win!
It can be said that "Dark War" is one of the few double-protagonists of the movie. What is particularly rare is that although the police and the criminals are still opposed in the film, they are not so clearly defined. As one of the villains' dual protagonists , Hua Tsai's charm even exceeds that of the policeman among the two heroes.
And this is a movie that is endlessly memorable.
Even if it is a script, Cao Meng, as a filmmaker from the old Hong Kong Island, can feel the strong taste of Hong Kong movies at a glance.
What's rare is that the design of the story is very clever, giving him the urge to take the story immediately.
