Chapter 832: The Missing Type
"Gambling films?" Wang Jing was overjoyed, and then remembered something and hurriedly said, "You can't make a gambling movie."
"Why can't I make gambling films, it's hard to make gambling movies and become your patent." Seeing Wang Jing's eagerness, Qiao Feng rolled his eyes angrily.
"No, I didn't mean that." Wang Jing waved his hand with a straight face: "I mean, gambling movies can be made, but they can't be your scripts."
"Why?" Qiao Feng really didn't understand, why couldn't others shoot themselves.
"The gambling movies are all bad, and if you shoot it now, it's smashing the signboard." Wang Jing sighed.
Forehead.
All right.
Qiao Feng understood what Wang Jing meant.
With the great success of the God of Gamblers, Gamblers, and Gambling Saints, the second is what Hong Kong people like to do the most, follow the trend.
For a time, gambling films, such as gambling masters, thousand masters, and thousands of kings, were flooded on the big screen in a very short period of time.
If the quality of these films is good, it is okay, but these films are all bad.
Countless viewers who want to watch quality gambling films such as the God of Gamblers, Gamblers, and Gambling Saints enter the movie and find that what is presented to them is not a big meal, but a lump of poop, and the genre of gambling films will rot at a very fast speed.
There is no need for the audience to have aesthetic fatigue with this type of film, and the genre of gambling films will be completely played by the film company.
Now when it comes to gambling films, it can be said that safety is a stinky street.
For Wang Jing, if he is rushing to make money to make gambling films, as long as it is not a big investment and too many stars, then he can still make money with his fame.
However, if this matter is put on Qiao Feng, as long as he takes out something that can surpass the God of Gambling and the Saint of Gambling, then he will be scolded to death.
However, can Qiao Feng's title as a gold medal screenwriter be tarnished?
That's certainly not the case.
Therefore, Wang Jing listened to Qiao Feng and said that the film he was going to shoot had something to do with the casino, so he was busy dissuading it.
Qiao Feng, who knew what Wang Jing was worried about, smiled, and then explained: "Don't worry, I'm not making a gambling movie, it's just related to casinos."
"Not a gambling movie?" Wang Jing was curious, and asked, "Could it be an action movie?"
In Wang Jing's concept, it is definitely not a tepid film that can be linked to the casino.
Otherwise, that atmosphere in the casino is not suitable either.
Wang Jingman thought that he must have guessed correctly, but he saw Qiao Feng opposite him shaking his head slowly but firmly.
"Oh, that's not right." Wang Jing felt a little confused: "What could it be?"
"Crime film." Seeing that Wang Jing guessed wrong again and again, there was a bit of a funny look Qiao Feng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and then revealed the answer.
"Crime movie, isn't that still an action movie?" Hearing the three words of crime film, the corners of Wang Jing's mouth twitched, and he looked annoyed that he had been played.
"No, it's different. It's pure crime." Qiao Feng shook his head and said, "This is an American-style crime movie.
Speaking of the genre of Hong Kong movies, Qiao Feng feels a headache.
The genre of the movie is too one-dimensional.
Just like Indian movies, no matter what film can be linked to song and dance, even the most intense gunfight action movie can give you a song and dance.
It's not the singing and dancing after the fight, but the middle of the shootout.
Although Hong Kong does not have songs and dances in any film like India, there are basically action scenes in basically any film except for pure literary films.
Therefore, Hong Kong movies give people the impression that in addition to literary films, there are basically comedies and action movies left.
And there are basically action scenes in comedies, whether it is the best bad friend, or a happy ghost, or even a rich and powerful person, it always has to be interspersed with fights, car chases.
It's like you can't make a movie without this.
And this, in Qiao Feng's view, is a big reason why the original time and space of Hong Kong movies will weaken later.
Because no matter what type of film, it will always make people aesthetically tired.
When you have a single type, it is inevitable that the audience will fall into aesthetic fatigue as quickly as possible, and it will make people want to change their taste to reduce aesthetic fatigue.
In this regard, Hollywood films are different.
When you watch a few action movies and feel like you want to vomit, there will be a few sci-fi movies for you to change your taste, and when sci-fi movies are tired of watching, there are romance movies, cartoons, and thrillers for you to choose from.
In this way, no matter how easy you are to get tired of aesthetics, there will always be something new to refresh your eyes.
The end result is that, except for some niche types, there is basically no genre that makes people get tired of watching it, and they don't want to see him again after seeing it.
And why did Hong Kong's later Infernal Affairs be called the savior of Hong Kong films?
Of course it's because it's so well made, and of course because the story is so good.
There is also a key factor, that is, Infernal Affairs is not the kind of action movie that Hong Kong people have vomited, the kind of police movie.
This is a high-IQ cop movie with few hands-on brains.
There are few fists to the flesh, few bullets flying sideways, some are full of deceitful open and secret fights, and some are full of romantic confrontations between police and bandits.
It is this difference from previous police and gangster films that brings the audience the greatest brightness and brings the audience a different sensory and even spiritual experience.
Why does Qiao Feng always want to make various types of films, whether it is an action movie like Die Hard or a lethal weapon, or a romance movie with a ghost in love, or a science fiction film like Back to the Future, or a historical film like the last emperor.
Making money is of course the most important thing, but it is also the idea of wanting to change the situation of Hong Kong films.
After all, his roots are in Hong Kong, and the future will be in the whole of China.
And the film he is currently considering is also based on this idea before he decided to come up with it.
Because this film is the kind of genre that Hong Kong movies rarely or do not have, there are no violent crime films.
"It's about a group of people working together to rob a heavily guarded casino." Qiao Feng told the plot.
"Isn't this the same number of paths as the Five Lucky Stars?" After listening to Qiao Feng say a few words, Wang Jing keenly found that the beginning of this story was the same as that of Wufuxing.
It's a very appealing person who has something, and then he starts to gather a group of people with their own skills to complete things with him.
"Uhhh Qiao Feng was obviously stunned for a moment.
Wang Jing said that he really didn't find out about this problem before.Now it seems to be true.When the police encountered a problem in Fuxing Gaozhao, the superintendent asked Hong Jinbao's partridge dish to help, and Partridge then gathered his friends from the orphanage, American ginseng, rhinoceros skin, Dashengdi and Luo Han Guo to help the police catch the villain.
"Well, it's very similar, but this is not the same as the plot of Wufuxing's giggling and making a big fuss. This is a serious high-IQ crime movie."
