"Is there really hope for a revival of Hong Kong films?" Zhang Zirong asked curiously as she looked at Cao Meng who was talking on the premiere stage.

Wang Yifan shook his head and said, "What is the revival of Hong Kong films? In the early years, as long as it was a movie, the male and female protagonists must be actors from Hong Kong Island or Baodao. Mainland actors can only play supporting roles. Even the actors from Hong Kong Island can only play supporting roles. But now, look at the mainland young actors and young actresses are emerging one after another. However, the older generation of stars in Hong Kong Island have grown old, but newcomers have become dying. It is impossible to compete with mainland stars. The key is that their directors are also in a state of decline. After so many years, how many movies can you watch?"

"Then this "Dark War"..." Zhang Zirong was a little confused. Since that's the case, why did Wang Yifan still write such a script?

"However, although it is unlikely that the revival of Hong Kong films can still be sold for a few more years. In fact, as long as there are good stories, why should we divide them so clearly? They are all Chinese films, why should we divide them into Hong Kong films, Baodao films, and mainland films? As long as their thoughts remain in this geographical division, there will never be a so-called revival!" Wang Yifan shook his head.

Thinking of Hong Kong Island movies in my previous life, the last "Dark War" and "Infernal Affairs" were once called the last glory of Hong Kong movies, but what was the result?

After these movies, how many movies can be called classic Hong Kong films?

Let’s look at the Hong Kong directors in their previous lives who could still achieve good results when the Chinese film market was booming. Which of them did they make Hong Kong movies?

......

On the stage, the reporter asked Cao Meng: "Director Cao, do you think "The Secret War" can become the starting point for the revival of Hong Kong films?"

Cao Meng shook his head and said, "The topic of Hong Kong film revival is actually a bit petty. Now that the Chinese film market is so big, I can only say that "Dark War" will be a Hong Kong-style movie, but it is definitely not the starting point for the Hong Kong film revival. However, I hope to retain some Hong Kong-style flavor in the process of the development of Chinese films."

Many Hong Kong filmmakers in the audience couldn't help but sigh and nod.

Actually, do they really don’t understand these?

In fact, of course they understand, but many people are a little unacceptable.

But the facts are right in front of you.

Cao Meng is a person who understands it more clearly. "Dark War" can indeed be said to be full of Hong Kong flavor, but so what?

Even if the movie "Dark War" is sold well, it is just a genre film.

Let’s take a look at those movies that are popular in the country. Which one is a regional movie?

Today is different from the past.

Cao Meng can only say that movies like "Dark War" are mainly about the plot and the story.

Of course, this also gave Cao Meng some inspiration.

Perhaps Hong Kong-style movies may not be able to continue to occupy a place in Chinese-language movies, but they must not be able to watch everything as before, just to make a fortune and leave just to make a fuss.

What the audience needs is sincerity.

But this is not easy. At most, he can work hard on it himself, and he can't control others.

In fact, why did Hong Kong stars fall from such a good situation in their early years to the present? Many young actors on Hong Kong cannot stand out at all. The big reason is that they have not yet recognized the reality.

You can imagine that many Hong Kong actors still cannot speak Mandarin well.

When you say you are dedicated, the lines themselves are the most basic link.

In order to perform a good drama, some Hollywood actors can specially train British-style accents.

Some mainland actors can learn dialects specifically to make a movie, but why can’t some people in Hong Kong learn Mandarin well after so many years?

Is it really not qualified? Obviously not, but their attitude has a big problem.

Get back to the point.

After Cao Meng and the main creative staff were interviewed, the screen went dark and soon became brighter.

Liu Yu had already taken out his notebook.

Professionals, of course, have to do professional things.

Although many people are accustomed to using high-tech products such as tablets, Liu Yu still likes to use notebooks and pens to write.

The movie began, and the sounds on the scene gradually became smaller until they became completely quiet.

The beginning of the film is the protagonist Andy Lau, played by Chen Dahua, who is told that there are only the last four weeks left in his life.

Seeing this, I listened to the dialogue between Andy Lau and the Doctor.

Liu Yu couldn't help but smile.

"It seems we won't meet again!"

"It's only this life, doctor!"

Andy Lau's free and easy life is really free and easy. When he learned that he had only four weeks left, he was not hit, but instead felt an indescribable free and easy life!

This is just a lifetime!

Many people watch the plot, but Liu Yu sees the long-closed Hong Kong flavor!

Their dialogue, actions, and everything gave him a feeling of being so familiar!

The following plot proves Liu Yu’s idea.

Andy Lau is a thief, a thief who is about to die. He will live for up to four weeks. In order to complete the last task, he asked the doctor for four weeks of painkiller pills!

The other male protagonist, Chen Qingyun, also one of the four kings of Hong Kong Island.

He plays a policeman, a policeman from Hong Kong Island.

Why do you need to repeat this sentence?

Is there any difference between the police in Hong Kong?

Yes, the Hong Kong Island police in Hong Kong films are different.

He was once a killer of the Flying Tigers, but he was transferred to civilian position. He became a negotiating expert. He was a very smart and a little arrogant person. He was transferred from the Flying Tigers to become a negotiating expert, and the game with the thieves aroused his interest.

In fact, many people already feel familiar when they see this.

There are few such opponents in the current Chinese-language films.

Soldiers are soldiers and thieves, and they are clearly divided!

But the police and gangsters in Hong Kong films are different.

Or you can say that their policemen are not like policemen, and thieves are not like thieves.

But this is the Hong Kong-style feature.

This is true in "Dark War", and the same is true in "Infernal Affairs".

There are many more. Some people say that in Hong Kong films, especially in the classic police and gangster films, the villain side will never be truly evil bandits!

For example, "The King of Guns", "The Big Event", etc.!

In fact, the police in Hong Kong movies are somewhat similar to the protagonists of some Hollywood police and gangster movies.

They have always been exceptional cases, such as Chen Jiaju in police stories, and Yuan Haoyun in the deceptive. Although they are very powerful and hardworking, they do not understand the worldly ways. They often make contributions but often cause trouble!

Perhaps this is the unique charm of the police in Hong Kong movies.

They are all desperate, but they all have strong ability to do things, but they have stronger ability to cause trouble!

Back to "Dark War"!

A thief like Andy Lau is the protagonist, and yes, he is also the protagonist, not a simple villain.
Chapter completed!
