When the outside world sang praises to Xu Gan, Xu Qian invited Ma Long to watch the script he wrote!

Ma Long's face is confused!

They Warner wants to buy the remake rights of "Infernal Affairs", but they don't need Xu Qian to write a script for them!

Moreover, are the Chinese familiar with Western values?

Are you familiar with how to write a Hollywood script?

Hollywood scripts are generally "three-stage", when to foreshadow, when to climax, when to sensationalize have their own set of processes!

It can be said that Hollywood films are basically industrialized!

Therefore, Warner plans to write the script itself after buying the remake rights of "Infernal Affairs", and there is no need for Xu Qian to write the script for them at all!

But it's still the same sentence, after all, the original creator of "Infernal Affairs" is Xu Gan, and Ma Long can't help but give Xu Qian face!

Besides, he had also carefully understood Xu Qian before he came, and found that this was a very awesome person, he often surprised people and created miracles!

"Maybe he can do a miracle this time?"

Although Malone thinks this is unlikely!

"But what if?"

Xu Qian handed the script to Ma Long!

Malone watched it seriously!

The script that Xu Qian handed to Ma Long was the script of "The Departed" that he had prepared a long time ago!

In Another World, "The Departed" is a 2005 police and gangster action film produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon.

The film is a remake of the Hong Kong film classic "Infernal Affairs", which tells the story of the Boston gang organization and the police training each other's undercover agents to be inserted in each other's interiors, as well as the process of fighting each other's wits and courage.

The film won 4 awards at the 79th Academy Awards: Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Editing, and Best Picture.

Plot:

South of Boston, the mob leader Frank Castro in his heyday dominates the side.

Sophisticated, he decided to raise Colin, who was only 14 years old, to pave the way for his future. At the same time, Billy, a teenager born in the neighborhood, hopes to escape the life of poverty and crime by his own efforts.

Time flies, and both Colin and Billy are adults, and both are admitted to the police academy and become police officers in the state police department.

The shrewd, capable and ambitious Colin, after his meritorious efforts in annihilating the gangsters, was quickly promoted to the superintendent of the "Special Investigation Team", and had his own power in the police station, but he still obeyed Castro's orders, and Billy, who grew up on the street and had a somewhat violent personality, although he wanted to be a good cop, was assigned the task of secretly infiltrating the gang organization and became Castro's right-hand man.

Castro's gangster crime syndicate grew stronger and stronger, and the police decided to begin secretly preparing to eradicate it. The confrontation is becoming more and more tense, and the failure of a series of cat-and-mouse operations has also made the police and the sensitive Costello aware of the existence of a spy inside, and the police and gangsters are about to start a big laundering operation, and the two undercover agents who have suffered physically and mentally have also begun to embark on the road of infernal!

The American version of "The Departed" and the Chinese version of "Infernal Affairs" are still very surprised!

Both movies tell the story of two undercover agents who lurk in the enemy and deal with each other.

The style of the Hong Kong version of "Infernal Affairs" is calm and subtle, and the rhythm is staggered, and the scenes such as the rooftop, elevator, and underground garage, as well as the actors' meaningful dialogues, all cast a veil of mystery over the movie.

At the beginning of the film, the director used the words "Eternal immortality, longevity is the catastrophe in the infernal hell" in the Buddhist scriptures to express people's struggle and helplessness in the struggle, and at the same time hint at the tragic fate of the two protagonists who cannot be redeemed, convey the director's pessimistic fatalism, and also set a mysterious and serious tone for the film. Being able to provoke the audience to think deeply is the success of this film.

On the other hand, "The Departed", although it is based on the Hong Kong version of "Infernal Affairs", does not have the restrained implication of the Hong Kong version at all.

In terms of style, it is more realistic, there is no so-called "trickery", all violent scenes are vividly displayed in front of your eyes, different from "Infernal Affairs" deliberately conceals the bloody shooting picture, it emphasizes the visual impact and the realism of the picture.

If you want to use two objects as a metaphor for "Infernal Affairs" and "The Departed", "Infernal Affairs" is a carefully carved and exquisite jade, and "The Departed" is an unadorned and natural stone.

"Infernal Affairs" shows the director's intentions everywhere, and the film adopts a non-linear and multi-narrative structure, which perfectly intertwines the fates of the two undercover agents.

In several confrontations between Liu Jianming and Chen Yongren, the director cleverly used cross-montage to show the nervous psychology of the two undercover agents respectively, and also gave a clear context to the narrative process. In addition, the director used a variety of motion shots to control the rhythm of the film just right. For example, when Huang Sir sacrificed and fell from the building, the director used a panning camera to show the focus of the surrounding characters' vision, so that the audience could feel their shocked mood. The director also used psychological montage to show Chen Yongren and Huang Sir's past, using sound and picture counterpoint, combining gunshots and background music, creating a heavy and sad atmosphere for the film, and maximizing the emotional ups and downs of the characters at this time.

"Infernal Affairs" weakens the violent scenes, focuses on the psychological activities of the characters, and greatly enhances the plot tension of the film through the portrayal of the characters' psychology. And "The Departed" is just the opposite, it shows the violent scenes and foul dialogues to the audience nakedly, without the slightest scruples, and a large number of "tricks" make the audience's hearts beat and give people a hearty feeling.

The reason why there is such a surprise between the two is because of the cultural differences between our country and the United States!

China is an ancient country with a 5,000-year-old culture, and it has come to the present with labels such as restrained, subtle, and polite.

"Infernal Affairs" is a Chinese film, and its literary and profound meanings, as well as the strong Buddhist Zen principles in the film, are all influenced by the culture of China.

"The Departed" comes to us with the standard American label, it is decisive and capable, the cramped alleys, the bustling streets, the rude dialogue, all of which show the American fashion color, due to the difference in the cultural heritage of the two countries to create two different styles of film.

I appreciate Infernal Affairs more than The Departed. Its twists and turns, tight and powerful rhythms, smooth performances by the actors, and a touch of Buddhist Zen throughout the film are all amazing!

Martin Scorsese's remake also shows us another possibility of film cultural exchange. I hope that in the future, more Chinese films will go out and let the world understand and appreciate them.

Xu Qian prefers "Infernal Affairs" because he is a Chinese!

And Malone is a Mi countryman!

"The Departed" seems to us Chinese to be simple, rough, not restrained enough, and not enough literary drama!

But in Ma Long's opinion, these are all advantages, oh, it should be said that it is the g-spot!

He was completely attracted by the script of "The Departed", and when he read the script, he danced from time to time, and his expression changed!

"Wonderful!"

"It's so exciting!"

"It's amazing!"

。。。。。。。。。。。

Marlon patted his thigh from time to time, and he was completely immersed in the script of "The Departed"!

After a long time, he finished reading the script of "The Departed", and he felt that his whole body was very hearty, as if he had taken a big tonic, this is the role of a good script, which can give people great enjoyment!

At this time, Xu Qian was drinking tea unhurriedly, and he was still very confident in the script of "The Departed"!

The moment he looked up, he just met Ma Long's eyes, and Ma Long's eyes were full of fanatical emotions!
