Chapter 662: Shen Meng's concert

"I am honored to invite Mr. Chen Mubai to shoot a Hong Kong film-style film for us, and I look forward to bringing this story to everyone, thank you for your support!"

Times Media and other investors jointly published the news, which instantly became a hot search for the current news.

", Chen Mubai takes over the Hong Kong film?"

"This is self-defeating, Hong Kong films are dying, and he dares to accept it?"

"This seems to be the first time he has taken over someone else's movie, and the first time he took over, he challenged the high difficulty, and he was so bold?"

"No, I fell asleep watching the "Anti-Corruption Bureau" during the Spring Festival, it was really too spicy chicken, if it weren't for the nostalgia for Hong Kong films before, I wouldn't have watched it, it turned out to be really rubbish, no wonder Hong Kong films are not good now. ”

"Awesome, in the case of the decline of Hong Kong films, you still dare to take on Hong Kong-style movies, Chen Mubai has never died?"

Basically, everyone thinks that Chen Mubai is looking for excitement.

None of the local Xiangjiang film directors can save Hong Kong films, how can he shoot a mainland director?

There are differences between the personal style and regional style of the film, even if it is the same script, let the director of Hong Kong and the mainland director shoot it, it may end up presenting two effects, which is the uniqueness of the regional style.

The general script is a general storyline, and many of them need to be filled in, and there are very few complete storyboards.

Generally, it is the director's responsibility to divide the shots, and the screenwriter only cares about the lines and the general structure of the plot, but when filming starts, the director will add and delete the content of the script according to the situation on the scene.

Therefore, even if it is the same script, the effect of shooting in the hands of different people is different.

Only Chen Mubai did the work of the screenwriter and director, and the script he handed over to Chen Yunteng was directly a script with sub-shots, so there was not much difference in shooting.

After all, these complete pictures are in his head, and they have been verified to be very excellent shots, and naturally they will not be cut.

If Chen Yunteng wants to add some of his own ideas to it, it's okay, as long as he can connect the plot from the previous to the next.

When this news came out, except for Chen Mubai's fans who supported him as always, the vast majority of the audience was still not optimistic.

It's not that I'm not optimistic about Chen Mubai's ability, but I'm not optimistic that Hong Kong-style films can get up.

The subject matter was filmed badly, and it was turned over to be a martial arts river, or a police and gangster film.

There are too many movies of this kind, and there are many excellent works, which are basically played out, and it will be difficult to make new ideas from the same subject matter again.

Just like the movie "Anti-Corruption Bureau", it is about the phenomenon of the anti-corruption department inspecting the corruption of government department insiders.

There are a lot of anti-corruption movies of this kind, and there are so many axes back and forth, everyone is tired of watching it, and they are not interested in this type of movie, after all, there is nothing new, and you will know the end when you see the beginning.

If Chen Mubai is only a director, there is no problem, his talent is outstanding, and everyone is still very optimistic.

Just like "Master of Hypnosis", the public began to agree that the quality of the movie should not be bad, but the schedule is limited and the subject matter is limited, and the box office may not be ideal.

But now, if you want to make a Hong Kong film, the style will be fixed, and the talent will be limited, so there will be a check and balance on what you shoot, and it is extremely difficult to shoot well.

This is also the reason why when Luo Fan was looking for Chen Mubai at that time, he thought that Chen Mubai would refuse, and it was indeed very difficult to challenge.

Soon, Chen Mubai and Mubai Entertainment also issued an announcement.

"Thank you Times Media...... For my trust, as a person who grew up watching Hong Kong films, it is a very wonderful thing for me to have the opportunity to direct a Hong Kong-style movie. ”

"When I was a kid, I watched the fight between the police and the gangsters in the movie, and I wondered when I would have the opportunity to participate in this kind of movie, and now the opportunity has come, and it has always been a movie that I want to make, and I want to tell this story to everyone. ”

"The name of the movie is "Infernal Affairs", which tells the story of the struggle between the police and the gangsters, and the story of undercover. ”

Chen Mubai directly said the title of the movie and announced the name.

A typical Hong Kong-style movie is also a familiar routine.

"Support Chen Mubai, I believe he can shoot works that satisfy us!"

"Come on!"

"It's the story of an undercover agent between the police and the gangsters, isn't this theme a bad shot......"

"The last "Undercover" was also about undercover, but it was very silly to shoot B, I hope Chen Mubai will not be so mentally retarded. ”

"Hong Kong films are indeed in decline, and the previous "Undercover" only had a box office of 100 million, and everyone doesn't pay for movies of the same type, I don't know what the results of "Infernal Affairs" will be......"

"It's not that the undercover subject matter is bad, but I have watched too much, and I feel that there are so many routines, what else can I do? But I also hope that Chen Mubai can break the deadlock and make a wonderful undercover film!"

......

"You should know that Mubai Entertainment cooperates with the company in Xiangjiang to produce a Hong Kong film together!"

Shareholders of Xingcheng Entertainment.

After the first news from Chen Mubai's side came out, they immediately discussed.

"See, it seems that the unpopular theme of "Hypnosis Master" has made him confident, and he thinks it can change everyone's inherent impression of Hong Kong films?"

"Or is he just arrogant, and the success of 'Hypnotist' catalyzes his ambitions?"

"I'm hoping he fails, and then he ruins his popularity and reputation, which is good news. Someone said with a smile.

One shareholder said, "Anyway, it's good news for us. ”

"Before, we were worried that the release of Shen Meng's concert might be maliciously sniped by Chen Mubai, but now it seems that they should have no time to make small moves. ”

"That's right, Chen Mubai and Mubai Entertainment should focus on movies now, and we are safe for the time being in music. ”

When they decided to avoid Chen Mubai, they took the route of music and held a concert for Shen Meng.

After communicating with Shen Meng, Shen Meng agreed very happily and was preparing for the concert.

But Xingcheng Entertainment didn't announce the news so quickly, and they were waiting for an opportunity.

Because they are afraid that after they say it now, Chen Mubai will make some moves, such as holding concerts and other things to deal with them, which is not impossible.

"Hypnosis Master" has been completed, and Chen Mubai has no new actions, so it is still very likely that he will deal with them after seeing this news, and he has time and energy now.

Now is a good opportunity, Chen Mubai wants to shoot new film works, and he has no time to take care of them, so naturally it will not affect them.

"Shen Meng's concert can be announced, so that fans can look forward to it, and we will also start to build momentum for her concert and spread the influence. ”

For Xingcheng Entertainment, whether Chen Mubai succeeds or fails, it has nothing to do with them, they just want to hold a good concert.

If Chen Mubai fails, they will definitely be happy, and they hope to see him fail.

"This time God really gives us good luck, Chen Mubai will face failure, and our concert can be successful, haha!"

"Everyone can wait together to see Chen Mubai's jokes. ”

The shareholders of Xingcheng laughed heartily, it had not been so happy for a long time.

No matter what the quality of "Infernal Affairs" is, at least they don't think that Chen Mubai can make a pure Hong Kong film, and he is not from Xiangjiang, how can he make a movie of that style?

They thought that Luo Fan was sick and rushed to the doctor.

Or, is it just because Chen Mubai is currently hot, so he invited him?

As for the box office of the movie, the pure Hong Kong film style is not good, and you still expect a layman to save it?

The decline of Xiangjiang's films is inevitable and irretrievable, and they can only survive, or they are willing to change, no longer limited to Hong Kong-style style, and begin to move closer to the mainland.

......

"I'll tell you something. Chen Mubai and Tao Yaoyao were on the phone.

"What's the matter?" Tao Yaoyao said curiously.

"My next movie is confirmed, and I left you a role, but there are not many scenes, and it is invested by a company over there in Xiangjiang. Chen Mubai briefly recounted the incident.

"You're going to be busy with a new movie so soon!" Tao Yaoyao was a little surprised.

Not long after the Chinese New Year, "Master of Hypnosis" was released, Chen Mubai didn't have much time to rest, and he had to put himself into work, which was really hard.

"Well, this time I'm going to shoot a police movie, Hong Kong-style. ”

Tao Yaoyao was surprised and said, "Ah?

"Hong Kong films have been bad in the past few years, and the reputation outside the country has been ruined, you shouldn't take it!" Tao Yaoyao was a little anxious.

When Chen Mubai decided to take over this movie, she told Tao Yaoyao as soon as possible, so she didn't know that Chen Mubai had cooperated with the other party.

"I am confident that there will be many Xiangjiang stars in this film, and I specially left you a role. Chen Mubai said with a smile.

"Okay, when will filming start?" Tao Yaoyao pouted.

"The movie is in preparation, they are inviting stars to arrange the schedule, and I will let you know when the time is set. ”

"Do I need to do anything to prepare?"

"No, this time in it, you play my girlfriend, just play it in your true colors, the characteristics of the female character are beautiful, you fit perfectly. Chen Mubai said touching love words.

"You're making fun of me again~"

"No, I'm telling the truth!" Chen Mubai said righteously.

"Hey~"

"By the way, I have a song for you. Chen Mubai said.

"New song?"

"Do you remember that 'Fade'?"

"Yes!"

"It's that song, I wrote the lyrics, you try it, I think your voice is very good for that song. ”

"Huh?" Tao Yaoyao hesitated: "That song is very good music, and I don't have the confidence to be able to sing it well." ”

"Fade" has become a global hit, and this song is very beautiful with pure music.

But because of this, if you write the lyrics to this song, if it is not very good, it will cause dissatisfaction among people who like the song, and they will think that it is a waste of the song.

Writing lyrics or arranging songs that have been famous for a long time have to face this risk, because the song already has an audience and loyal fans, and once the quality does not satisfy them or does not exceed or reach the original quality, it will definitely fail.

And the original song is so successful, how easy is it to break through?

Tao Yaoyao is not afraid that he will be questioned if he sings badly, but the person who wrote the lyrics for this song is Chen Mubai, even if he is the original creator of the song, but once the song does not reach the quality in everyone's hearts, he will still be scolded, and he will be scolded for doing more.
