This is the end of this article, and I won't write it... Preparing a new book... ）

Gangster films, first press "The Godfather" not to mention, although "Once Upon a Time in America" is meaningful, it lacks rush scenes, and it has a lot of ink on love;

Not to mention "Crazy Boy", although he is hot-blooded, he is inevitably a little brainless, blindly brave and ruthless, and can't resist chewing carefully.

The plot setting of "New World" is similar to "Infernal Affairs", it tells the story of Li Zicheng, who has just graduated from the police academy, and is ordered to go undercover for ten years in the gangster organization Kinmen Group, during which he and Ding Qing, the group's No. 3 person, have a close relationship.

After the boss of the Kinmen Group was killed and killed, the superiors repeatedly disregarded Li Zicheng's safety and wanted to meddle in the election of the new leader, so as to control the Kinmen Group.

The distrust and indifference of his colleagues towards Li Zicheng eventually led him to go completely into darkness and become a veritable gang leader.

The change in Li Zicheng's undercover identity actually implies his understanding of life.

From being enthusiastic about joining the police to being discouraged by not being trusted, his ten-year undercover career made him understand: This world is not black and white, although Ding Qing is a gang leader, he regards Li Zicheng as his own brother;

……

Before the release of "New World", Lu Xiaoran wrote a paragraph on Weibo:

This movie is a work to satisfy my personal aesthetic preferences, not so mainstream, it is a work made after my interpretation of "The Godfather" and "Infernal Affairs", it is not very good, but it is not too bad, at least in terms of narrative and character processing, it is much more mature than "Border Storm"...

I've always wanted to make a movie about gangsters,

It's a wish!

Lu Xiaoran's box office expectation for "New World" is 1.5 billion, after all, this movie is not a mainstream blockbuster, and the three views are not serious...

Although the movie ends with the phrase 'This story is pure fiction!'

But the background of this movie is wrong - the undercover Li Zicheng eventually became a gangster boss!

Many people watched "New World", and then compared "Infernal Affairs" and "Infernal Affairs"...

It is unanimously believed that "Infernal Affairs" is exquisite, the suit is straight, romantic and lyrical. "Infernal Affairs" is rough, the streets are dirty and messy, and it is very sudden.

In the face of such a jewel in front of her, Lu Xiaoran was not bound by her hands and feet, and once again made innovations, which no one dared to think.

"New World" is very similar to the exquisiteness of "Infernal Affairs", and the movie also strengthens the violence of "Infernal Affairs", horrific scenes such as corpses and beheadings, and bloody violence.

The biggest idea is to go black to the end!

Many viewers have also thought that the tragic undercover agent may be able to get ahead, and the ignorant female college student will inevitably fall in love with the traitor, and as for whether she can complete the task, it has been left behind.

However, most screenwriters and directors are either concerned about people's sense of justice, or find it difficult to convince people with reason.

Therefore, such breakthrough attempts are rare, and only films that aim to subvert and be funny will encounter them.

"New World", there are unjust debtors and owners, if you want to play, you can play to the end!

Cool film mode!

More viewers were moved by the brotherhood of Ding Qing and Li Zicheng...

I think they are a couple - I didn't expect Lu Xiaoran to play Tanmei, it's very set...

Then, it was directly blown into a phenomenal movie, ten days after its release, the box office broke 2.5 billion, I thought it was over, and took over the newly released "Thunder Shazam", especially the sand sculpture, few people watched it at all, so it occupied the Qingming file, and the box office broke 3.5 billion in 20 days...

After that, there was still no good movie - Orange released "Mirage", which was too niche, won 200 million box office, and then no one paid attention to it.

"New World" dominated the box office list for 25 days, piling up the cumulative box office to 4.2 billion...

……

On April 12th, Lu Xiaoran, Ning Hao, Huang Bo and even Liu Hua, who had not seen each other for a long time, gathered at the Beijing Exhibition to participate in the premiere of the movie "Lust Game" directed and starred by Guo Tao himself!

The 'Stone Gang' is back together after six years!

"I'm looking forward to it, Brother Tao was going to make a suspenseful sci-fi genre film three years ago..."

Facing an interview with reporters, Lu Xiaoran said.

He has also read the script of "Lust Game", written by Mr. Shu Huan, which is about the protagonist developing some mysterious technology, and then pit his daughter to death, and after that, he went crazy, so his wife, partner and disciples worked together to design a game, and through the puzzle of partnering to kill people, let the protagonist wake up to himself...

This script structure is completely 'borrowed' from "Shutter Island" and "World Wonderful Story: The Doorbell at 2 A.M."

It can be said that all the layouts in the early stage are for the reversal of the last moment!

If you shoot it well according to the script, it will indeed be a good story!

But when you actually look at it, it's not like that at all, in order to make the suspense part in front more exciting, crazy digging holes, hinting at reversals.

But the whole story is told so smoothly that I can't see any signs of reversal at all, and it's very messy...

A large number of cluttered elements such as the sudden fencing in Fuchun Mountain Jutu have been added - the setting is a VR element, so the male number two has a lot of messy scenes, mixed together, it really gives people an inexplicable feeling!

Also, I don't know where Guo Tao found the actor, maybe it was shoehorned by investors, the female number three, a role used to seduc, the voice is too greasy and crooked...

Three female characters, half-aged, young girls, young beauties...

The final ending has the feeling of hinting at the ending of the harem...

But the whole film sucks!

In 2017, I got the Dragon Mark, which dragged on for two years, and I found a deserted schedule to be released...

Lu Xiaoran was really embarrassed to comment on the movie, and only said, 'Brother Tao works hard'...

At the party after that, Guo Tao was busy promoting the movie and did not participate, Lu Xiaoran, Huang Bo, Ning Hao and Liu Hua briefly got together.

The starting point of several people is "Crazy Stone"...

Liu Hua was already a very famous actor before he starred in "Stone", and his masterpiece - Pan Feng in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Qianmen Louzi Jiuzhangjiu"...

"China's film industry is developing too fast, there are too many new films every year, countless people are looking forward, with new goals, past milestones, but not necessarily people are willing to look back. ”

""Stone" has only been 12 years, and the total national box office that year was 2.6 billion, and now, without 3 billion, it is not a hit at all!"

"To what extent do Chinese regard movies as culture? It has to pass this stage of consumption before it can be raised to cultural attributes. ”

Lu Xiaoran shook her head: "Don't be so pessimistic, my favorite movie is also the movie "Jiupin Sesame Official" that has been watched the most repeatedly." In any year, it is impossible to enter the top ten films of the year, and it is impossible to be affirmed by various film festivals. ”

"Cinema has both artistic and commercial attributes, and the two are opposites but unified. ”

"Literature and art and commerce are the two directions of film, which are equivalent to the Yangchun Baixue and the Xia Riba people in literature, one represents elegance and the other represents vulgarity. ”

"The goal of literary films is to pursue ideology and artistry, with the highest standard of being able to move people's hearts, while commercial films pursue entertainment and appreciation, with the audience watching well and box office sales as the highest standard. ”

Objectively speaking, it is the literary and artistic nature that improves the status of the film, otherwise the film is nothing more than a "foreign film", and it is understandable that academics and film festivals prefer literary films to a certain extent. If you want to rise to the height of art, you need to think and deep. ”

"But if you have to rise to the cultural field, I don't think it's necessary, not to mention anything else, how many literary films can most audiences remember in the last ten years?"

Ning Hao waved his hand, not wanting to talk about this topic...

He has his own set of theories about movies, and it is impossible to be led astray by another person casually!

""Eight Hundred" seems to be banned!"

"Now the censorship department is too soft, everything is hardcore to bark, and the "Young You" we made has also been censored!"

"There's no way, after the big hit of "God of Medicine" last year, the Film Bureau was severely criticized by the relevant departments!"

"At present, China is under siege in the international public opinion, and negative public opinion will affect politics and economy, I have thought about why China is carrying out transmission control, obviously to stabilize the institutional measures, and in the current global situation, it is impossible and cannot be relaxed. Unless one day we are the boss of the industry, then we can shoot as much as we want!"

"Eight Hundred" and "Young You" have all been withdrawn...

Orange temporarily arranged for "Capernaum" to be in charge of the top.

Originally, it was three movies: "Touching the Golden Captain 2", "Young You", and "Nezha", but now "Young You" has become "Capernaum", and "Capernaum" has changed its name - "What is Home"...

"Let's hope that day comes soon!"

“… Okay, don't think about it so much, "My Motherland and Me", are you ready?"

Ning Hao nodded: ""Hello Beijing, my part is finished!"

Huang Bo: "I'm almost there!"

“… Tomorrow, I'll shoot my... I'm ready to shoot "Born Out of the Sky"!"

"Come on!"

"Brother Hua is here to help me play a role?"

"No problem!"

Several people, including Liu Hua, didn't mention "Lust Game", this movie is a typical bad movie, there is nothing to say, just leave some room for Guo Tao...

……

I would have liked to write a few more chapters...

At least write "Nezha", I found that there is nothing to write about, the last book has already been written...

That's it, starting with "Stone" and ending with "Stone".

"Lust Game" is particularly bad...
