Whether it is Long Xiaomi or not, the editor-in-chief of "Film Weekly" came to interview him in person, and Chen Jialuo has no reason to refuse others.

Even if "Film Weekly" has not prepared for the Hong Kong Film Awards, every article in this magazine's reviews of movies is very exciting!

And one of them is Long Xiaomi's review of Chen Jialuo's debut novel in 1984 - "Night in Mong Kok".

And this report is also the first movie report that Chen Jialuo saw when he came to this time and space.

In the conference room of the Red Flower Society, seeing Chen Jialuo walking in, Long Xiaomi did not sit still because of his age or qualifications, but got up with a light smile and shook hands with him and said: "Thank you, Mr. Chen Jialuo, you are willing to accept my interview, if it weren't for your assistant to inform me, I would have to run away if you came over like this!"

For Hong Kong's entertainment reporters and paparazzi, Chen Jialuo is still very clear.

To put it bluntly, entertainment reporters are still reporters, somewhat professional, and paparazzi are the kind of celebrities who rush forward as soon as they appear, whether it's flashing lights or asking, they also hinder you from walking, and at the same time they will take some uncomfortable shots of you, this kind of entertainment reporter is a kind of paparazzi.

They just knew that you knew they were following, and they still came over unscrupulously to let you beat and scold, so I just reacted, hehehe.

The other is mysteriously avoiding candid photography, regardless of whether you are eating, going to the toilet, as long as you have the opportunity, you will keep shooting, you need to pay attention to your demeanor all the time outside, and you must also close the curtains when you return home, so as to ensure privacy before you can indulge a little.

It is rumored that Guan Zhilin has to put on makeup seriously for an hour before going out to take out the garbage, and the process of throwing out the garbage after going out is only a few minutes.

As for people with the position and fame of Long Xiaomi, they are already considered to be the predecessors of filmmakers.

Hearing his ridicule, Chen Jialuo smiled bitterly: "I don't have the bad habit of beating reporters, I haven't even beaten the paparazzi, let alone a senior journalist like Editor-in-Chief Long." ”

"Thanks to my love back then, I still keep the film review you wrote for "Night in Mong Kok". ”

Seeing that Chen Jialuo's expression did not seem to be fake, and he could still remember this incident after so many years, Long Xiaomi sighed with emotion: "It's that your movie is really good, and it's getting better and better." Having said that, if I don't shoot well in the future, I'll still scold!"

"Haha, okay, okay. ”

After the two looked at each other and smiled, Long Xiaomi took out the interview script from his briefcase. Of course, he can't focus on those scandals like those entertainment reporters, and most of the preparation work is about Chen Jialuo's script, camera movement and shooting techniques.

"In fact, can we be casual and smoke?" Chen Jialuo skillfully pinched his head and tail, bit a cigar in his mouth, and smiled: "Just call me Arlo." ”

With Long Xiaomi's age and qualifications in the film industry, even if he calls Chen Jialuo 'Luo Zai', it is understandable.

What an interesting young man.

Although he had long known that Chen Jialuo was not the megalomaniac described in Entertainment Weekly, Long Xiaomi's true sense of this person was very strong at this moment.

Young but exuding a sense of calmness, he doesn't look like a posterior in his twenties at all. The confidence between gestures is exuded from the bones, not the arrogant appearance of the rumors outside.

Now that Chen Jialuo has begun to swallow clouds and spit out fog, Long Xiaomi is not polite. Those who do this business are more or less addicted to smoking.

"Hehe, Arlo, I originally thought that even if you were not as difficult to interview as written in the media, you would be a little domineering, after all, the results were there, but I didn't expect it to be so. ”

"Reporter, of course, how to exaggerate and write, plus few directors in the film industry have a good temper on the set, everyone thinks so. After Chen Jialuo asked Xu Chang to serve tea to Long Mi and his assistant, he said, "We can start at any time!"

"This interview is mainly about your film career. Do you think we're going to start right away, or are you going to get ready first?"

"There's nothing to prepare, it's not about choosing handsome men and beautiful women, I still have to put on makeup, let's start!"

I have to say that Chen Jialuo's bearing did add a lot to his heart in Long Xiaomi.

"Ah Luo, when you created and filmed your debut film "Mong Kok Night", to the later "Prison Storm", and even the "A Chinese Ghost Story" series, although it is a fantasy movie, it is still the rivers and lakes of the human heart, can you analyze it yourself?"

"It's chivalrous. ”

Chen Jialuo pondered for a moment and said: "When I was a teenager, I read a lot of ancient Chinese books, and I read most often, such as "Water Margin" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Therefore, the chivalrous spirit of ancient times, a kind of mutual help between friends, and the spirit of righteousness and chivalry had a great impact on me. Therefore, whether it is the eldest brother Hua in "Mong Kok Night" or Zhong Tianzheng and Lu Jiayao in "Prison Storm", Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia in "A Chinese Ghost Story" are all people who 'unconditionally dedicate their hearts, their feelings, and their lives to others'!"

"Your first play was a gangster movie, was it because you fell in love with gangster culture in Hong Kong, or was it for some other reason before?"

A clever interviewer will ask a question that you can't avoid, and in fact the question is linked to some gossip, of course, how to answer that is your business. It's just that it can be seen that Long Xiaomi does have some level.

Chen Jialuo was calm about this, and said with a smile: "When I was filming "Mong Kok Night", I didn't know much about the underworld, it was completely based on my imagination and what happened, I wrote it in with my own experience and that of many people around me. So, when I film, many aspects are the expression of some kind of life experience. In "Mong Kok Night", some dialogues will say: "My Ah Hua has never been threatened by anyone in my life." "This is the education I have received since I was a child, that is, to be a human being, you must have backbone. Don't give in to the forces of evil, and don't admit defeat so easily. So, I came up with this dialogue. ”

"What is dignity for me? I came back from England and wanted to make my dream come true. And if you want to realize this dream, you need to make a good work come out. This work was filmed and received, and it proved myself. Although "Mong Kok Night" was not well received, in the end, I still did it!"

"Later, when I filmed "Prison Storm", I had a 'film director', so I filmed the community and prison life very realistically, and I also understood that the underworld is actually a little different from what we usually imagine......"

When Long Xiaomi heard Chen Jialuo's answer, he was also very impressed in his heart. This young man has successfully proved himself in the face of all odds.

"A Chinese Ghost Story 2" was a great success, and even the box office is about to surpass "Prison Storm" and become your highest-grossing movie, some people say that it is based on the quality of Hollywood special effects, and some people say that it is the publicity of the new art city, etc., what do you think of it?"
