Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, the time came to the first of September. In another hour, the launch conference of "Infernal Affairs" will begin, and at this time, many melon-eating netizens on the Internet are all looking forward to this press conference. After some hype these days, many people know that there is a Chinese-language movie with a big cast production that is about to start shooting. The media was the first to receive the news, and many media have received the news in the past few days, after all, so many superstars have been photographed, and there must be something big about appearing in Beijing Film and Television Culture Company at the same time.

This is not just three days ago, most of the media received an invitation letter from Beijing Film and Television Company to the press conference on the launch of "Infernal Affairs", and the specific situation will not be known until it starts.

Most of this "Infernal Affairs" was filmed at the Huairou Film and Television Base in Beijing, so the press conference was also held here.

At this time, Chen Yongren and several leading actors were already backstage and were about to attend the press conference.

"You said that the movement of Beijing Film and Television this time is quite big, but I don't know what type of film is going to be made, have you heard of this "Infernal Affairs" before? But looking at this lineup, it is estimated that the director is either Zhang Yimou or Chen Haige, after all, such a big cast director must also be top-notch" Sina Entertainment said to the peers next to him, because the news that has broken out so far is about the movie and several leading actors, and the information about the director is still confidential.

"Who knows, but there is a grapevine that the lineup of this movie is very strong, and the director is very young, so I don't know which one is true and which one is fake, anyway, it's about to start, and I'll know later" A reporter from another daily entertainment reporter responded.

In the anticipation of many media reporters and friends, an hour passed quickly, with the introduction of the host of the press conference one by one, the leading actors also appeared one after another, Chen Yongren also appeared, when the director Chen Yongren was introduced, the media below were stunned for a moment, because such a young director, directing such a big production of the film, sure that today is not April Fool's Day?

When it came to the question session, many reporters couldn't wait and asked one by one: "Hello Director Chen, I am a reporter from Sina Media, may I ask if Director Chen has directed any works before? Will it be difficult to direct such a big production this time?"

"Director Chen, what is the relationship between you and Mr. Chen Daqi, and did you rely on Mr. Chen Daqi's relationship to become a director?"

"Director Chen, I heard that this is your first time making a movie, will you be inexperienced and eventually make a big bad movie?"

"Director Chen, how much is the specific investment in this movie, it is said that it is a big production of up to 60 million on the Internet, is the news not true?"

"Director Chen, as the producer of the movie, Mr. Chen Daqi didn't come today, are you not optimistic about the movie?"

"Director Chen... Director Chen ......... "The reporters in the audience only had Chen Yongren in their eyes at this time, and they ignored several big names next to them, one by one, bombarding Chen Yongren with long guns and short artillery...

Looking at the reporters who blew up the pot in the audience, the host just wanted to come out to control the scene, Chen Yongren had already spoken first, "First of all, please be quiet first, this is the launch conference of the "Infernal Affairs" movie, not the vegetable market, so how can I answer you so noisy? I will answer your questions one by one, but first of all, please respect the discipline of the venue, otherwise you will ask the security guard to invite you out" The reporter at the bottom blew up in a moment, what kind of thing? Ask the security guard to ask us to go out? It's as if we're willing to come, if it weren't for the news, what are you, and the reporters below are talking about it, and it's even more confusing...

"Please keep quiet, the security guard invited the reporter out" and then asked the security guard to invite the two reporters out, and the bottom was instantly quiet, after all, they were here to cover the big news, and they were kicked out without any gain, and it was too much of a loss, and when the news was in hand, he would be killed tomorrow.

However, in the face of Chen Yongren, who is so domineering and has an aura of several meters high, they still sit quietly like elementary school students.

The host couldn't help but look at Chen Yongren with admiration, after all, many newcomers will be in a hurry when facing a situation for the first time, and they don't know how to deal with it, but Chen Yongren is not like a newcomer at all, and he has a strong aura.

"First of all, this is my first time directing a film, I wrote the script for this film, I am the director, and I will also play a small role in the film. Secondly, Chen Dong couldn't come today because he had something temporary, not for other reasons. The initial budget for the production of this film is 60 million, with no upper limit. Although this is my first time directing, I have also done various jobs for many crews during my college years, so although it is the first time to direct and such a big production, it does not mean that I don't have the ability to shoot well. Finally, I would like to say that I am very fortunate to have been appreciated by Mr. Chen and given him a lot of help, although he was not able to be here today, I am still here to express my gratitude to him. Then I am honored to be able to work with so many excellent actors in the first film, and I believe that our cooperation must be a pleasant process and an unforgettable experience, and I also believe that we will definitely be able to make an excellent Chinese commercial blockbuster. After answering some questions, the reporter also interviewed others, and it didn't take long for the press conference to end.

The next day, the headlines of entertainment news were all about the press conference, but surprisingly unanimous was that no one was optimistic about this movie, because in people's hearts, even Zhang Yimou, the first Chinese director who won numerous awards, recorded the highest box office of the film was only about 35 million, not to mention a rookie director who had just graduated and had no directing experience, and this director was still arrogant and arrogant. Although the lineup of this film is very strong, the amount of film production has also set a new record for domestic films. However, no one is optimistic about this movie at all, so I didn't think about the box office, because in everyone's opinion, this is a person who is stupid and has a lot of money, which is used to support newcomers, and as for who the newcomers are, there is no need to say more, everyone understands.

So in this way, Chen Yongren and "Infernal Affairs" became popular in an alternative way, although it is not said that they know it on the streets, but most people know the existence of this movie, but it saves the cost of publicity and distribution, although no one is optimistic about this movie, but there are many fans who can't help but star, so the popularity remains high, so fans are looking forward to whether this epoch-making Chinese entertainment blockbuster is blown a lot, or is it true.

Autumn goes to winter, more than two months have passed unconsciously, and the filming progress is almost finished, the progress can be so fast In addition to the actors are excellent actors, there is nothing wrong with the acting skills, and more importantly, Chen Yongren's control of the set, it can be said that he has completely conquered these big names, not at all like a rookie director, but like a big director with rich experience, which is a good thing for the crew, and also makes the film shooting progress from the early stage to the middle and late stages, although the shooting progress is very fast, but the quality of the film shooting has not decreased, but the requirements are higher。

At nine o'clock in the morning on November 22, 2003, on the roof of an old building in Huairou Film and Television Base, the equipment was being sorted out and ready to start filming a very classic scene of "Infernal Affairs", the rooftop showdown. Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei, two actors, also spoke on the side.

There are not many lines in this scene, but it is very classic, this is a very classic diagonal scene between the two, and there is a very classic line in this scene that is none other than Chen Yongren's "I'm sorry, I'm a policeman"...

Chen Yongren watched them talk to each other, and walked over, "Brother Hua, viagra, we are almost ready here, how are you doing, ok?"

Liang Chaowei looked at Chen Yongren who came over and was also full of emotion, remembering that when the movie first started filming, he was worried that the rookie director would not be able to control the scene and smash this good movie, after all, he hadn't received such a good book for a while, but then Chen Yongren's ability and aura were completely convinced from the moment he was impressed, and the moment Chen Yongren picked up the guide tube, he seemed to be a different person, just like those top directors.

"Ah Ren, we're all fine, just wait for you to shout to start," Liang Chaowei said.

Liu Dehua said, "Director Chen, we have both been ready for a long time, there is no problem, just wait for you to shout to start"

"Okay, start filming in ten minutes, you guys adjust your state and strive for a pass" Seeing that they were all ready, Chen Yongren returned to the back of the camera, and after a while, Chen Yongren held a loudspeaker and shouted: "The actors and camera crew are in place, let's start shooting immediately"

……

"Click, this is over, okay, all the scenes have been filmed, and Infernal Affairs is officially completed" Chen Yongren shouted excitedly, this is his first film work after coming to this world, which lasted more than two months and was finally completed

"Wow!

"It's finally time to rest"

"It's not easy to finally finish filming"

"If you don't get drunk tonight, you won't go home, let's get the director drunk together"...

The cast and crew erupted in loud cheers.

During this time, under the strong pressure of Chen Yongren, the filming progress of the film was very fast, the shooting work was arranged very tightly, and Chen Yongren was very strict when he got up early every day and felt dark.

So after more than two months, everyone felt that they had lost a whole circle, so everyone was relieved when they heard the words of the finale, and they were very happy and excited, after all, they all participated in this big production.

In the evening, Chen Daqi held a finale banquet and invited all the staff and participants of the crew to have dinner together.

The dinner table came over one after another to pour Chen Yongren, in order to avoid hanging up again, when he was almost drunk, Chen Yongren retired first, because although the movie was successfully closed, there was still a lot of work to be done in the next post-production and publicity, so he went back to the hotel to rest in advance.
