Chapter 245: The Ultimate, the Classics Still (Ask for Subscription)

"NBA Lakers swept the Spurs 4:0, this killer is really cold! 》

"Who will be the next victim", after the Lakers swept the Spurs 4-0, the Associated Press issued such an emotion! The implication is that whether it is the 76ers or the Bucks who are killed from the East, the final fate will be the same as that of the Spurs, because this killer is really cold.

Now people feel that the Lakers are invincible. The Spurs were the regular season leader, and the "twin towers" of Duncan and Robinson are also recognized as one of the most powerful interior combinations in the NBA. But in the face of the powerful Lakers, every advantage was in vain. The conflict between Kobe Bryant and O'Neal made the Lakers very critical in the regular season. However, in the face of the championship, the two finally joined hands and immediately burst out with huge energy, especially Kobe.

However, this qiē is not the end......

Chen Tiandu was reading the newspaper, and the release date of "Infernal Affairs" happened to be the fifth and possibly final game of the NBA Finals. The Lakers, who have not lost a game in the entire playoffs to reach the Finals, will face the super-dark 76ers for a championship ring on Friday. This day is really not good, and it may cause the movie to lose many male fans when it is released.

The phone rang suddenly, it was Kong Yiji, "Hey, old Kong." ”

There was a loud noise of music and Kong Yiji's excited roar from the opposite side: "Quick, guess where I am now?" ”

Chen Tian was speechless, "How do I know where you are fooling around, be careful of the tragic death on a woman's belly one day......" "Hello, Christmas Chen~" A thick voice suddenly intervened halfway. Chen Tiandu paused for a moment, "Who are you?" "Hahaha, you would never have thought of it. I run a pie duì at O'Neill's house. O'Neill, the big shark O'Neill. Kong Yiji roared excitedly. What the? Chen Tiandu is really a little jealous at this moment, this guy's private life is much more leisurely than his, he doesn't talk about singing every night, and he often changes women around him, and now he actually makes friends with O'Neal, and it is estimated that he will soon become a social celebrity in Los Angeles.

But aren't they going to play the finals? Now the coach still allows them to open a faction, according to the script, shouldn't they abstain from sex and entertainment to concentrate on preparing for the game?

"Hi. I'm Shaquille, Christmas Chan, how about coming to watch our Grand Final? ”、“…… Hello, big shark. I'm your fan. This is really unexpected. ”

The premiere is scheduled for Thursday night, and as one of the most successful Chinese-language films so far, "Infernal Affairs" has no doubt its influence in Asia, and as the next part of the series to premiere, it will also be held together with North America, the mainland, Hong Kong and Treasure Island. The huge lineup was split, Andy Lau, who was the most popular in the previous movie except for Chen Tiandu, sat at the mainland premiere, and the sequel starring Li Ming and actress Chen Huilin came to North America to attend the North American premiere.

Outside the Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles, the festive atmosphere has long been in place. Very lively. There are a lot of local Chinese, and there are not a few white faces.

A huge poster of Infernal Affairs. Chen Tiandu and Andy Lau have two side faces on top, and below is the rooftop of the rooftop building in Victoria Harbour, one carrying handcuffs and the other pointing a gun. The poster of "Infernal Affairs" turns into a group of cool men and women standing on their sides, looking down on everyone in a vertical shape.

The scale of 3,375 theaters is more than 100 more than "Fast and Passion", and it is also the largest scale of Chinese films released in North America. Not only did a group of movie starrings come, Chen Tiandu brought his girlfriend to the show, and Zhang Ziyi, who was already quite popular, also made a cameo appearance.

and Vin Diesel and Meghan, who are popular because of "Speed", also drove to the surprise of fans. The fastest increase in popularity this summer is none other than the speed actors. They came spontaneously, and Chen Tiandu's movies generally do not invite a large number of celebrity guests to fill up the topic of popularity.

"I love 'Infernal Affairs', there is a momentum in this movie, and you can make people sink into it as many times as you watch it." Vin Diesel told reporters. "I like the role of Chen Yongren the most, I like to be able to play a psychiatrist." Meghan also generously expressed her love for movies.

This is North America, and in Hong Kong, it is almost the whole city.

"Infernal Affairs" is like a dazzling flower in the dark night sky of Hong Kong movies, breaking the long-silent night of Hong Kong movies. The film was released in Hong Kong for 46 days last year, and it didn't stop until it broke the box office record for "Jurassic Park." You said that he was good at the box office, but this qiē was worth it, when Chen Tiandu won the Oscar for Best Director with this movie for the first time, and when "Infernal Affairs" won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film for the first time, the audience really regretted that they didn't go to the theater to brush it a few more times.

Since then, genuine DVDs and original music tapes have also hit new sales in Hong Kong, and classic movies should be bought and collected at home.

As a movie, there must be a protagonist, and Hong Kong movies must have super strong supporting roles.

In Hong Kong movies and TV series, there are always some "10,000-year-old second", most of them have more than ten minutes of scenes, and as few as a few shots flash. They are in almost every movie, but we can't name them. But the characters they portray with rich personalities are always unforgettable. It is precisely with the selfless dedication of this group of dedicated Hong Kong filmmakers that there will be the glory of Hong Kong films, and there will be an unlimited future for Hong Kong films.

No one needs support, and no movie doesn't need to be built. These supporting roles are the inheritors of the pinnacle of Hong Kong cinema, and they are also the founders of the new Hong Kong cinema that supports the youth.

The cast of the two parts of "Infernal Affairs" is so strong that it can be described as a real gathering of big names.

Idols, powerful factions, cater to audiences of different genders and ages. Such a cast probably only appears in the annual Chinese New Year drama "Happy Family" series. At the same time, such a cast often means that the plot is empty, especially in mainland film and television works, this has almost become a law, but every actor in "Infernal Affairs" is conscientious and does not relax to complete their duties. makes this movie really come alive and hit the hearts of people.

And with the fire of Infernal Affairs, all the supporting characters in the play have become stars.

Even the undercover Sun Honglei, who is not too eye-catching, has received a soft hand in the play, and Huang Bo has become a hit, and his fame came so quickly that it was unexpected. Especially before some mainland artists went to Hong Kong to develop, it was common for them to be often ignored and discriminated against, but this was not seen in Huang Bo and Sun Honglei.

Especially Huang Bo, although he is not very good-looking, his acting skills have been recognized, and his roles are quite flattering, and he has received many appointments from Hong Kong movies, but unfortunately no one has come to him to play the leading role.

It is worth mentioning that the 20th Hong Kong Film Awards, held in Hong Kong in April this year, has become the most tragic year in the past. There are two high mountains on the outside, "Infernal Affairs" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and there are sunglasses king's word-of-mouth masterpiece "In the Mood for Love" inside. There is no place for other small movies at all.

But after a lot of judges, can you say which of the two movies is better than the other. China has always said that there is no first in literature, not to mention that even if the two movies fight in the Oscar ring, it is only a fraction of a second.

What to do? The answer is double yolk eggs!

This double yolk egg award, which has always been criticized by the audience, has surprisingly not received much criticism this year.

"Infernal Affairs" won the Best Director Award side by side with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Although Chen Tiandu was absent, Li was present. Some people may think that Chen Tiandu ignores Hong Kong, but in the VCR proposed by Kong Yiji, who took the stage to accept the award instead of Chen Tiandu, Chen Tiandu sincerely apologized as soon as he opened his mouth, saying that he really couldn't come, and one minute should be used for two minutes. Then he won the award and made a touching speech, and words of thanks were indispensable.

The best film is still given to "Infernal Affairs", which is more favored by Hong Kong media, and the best screenplay, best editing, best actor, and best supporting actor awards all belong to "Infernal Affairs". The Best Supporting Actor was given to the old man "Zeng Jiang" played by Han Chen, and he deserved his name. In terms of movies, Chen Tiandu did not sign up for the Best Actor competition, and the best actor in the newspaper is only Andy Lau. Then this award naturally became a long-cherished competition between Andy Lau and Tony Leung.

In the end, Andy Lau was really good at evaluating the huge pressure of the movie in the world, defeating Tony Leung and winning the Best Actor Award in one fell swoop.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won more technical awards, such as Best Music, Best Song, Best Supporting Actress, Best Action Direction, Best Sound Effects, etc. "In the Mood for Love" won the Best Actress Maggie Cheung, Best Art Direction, and Best Costume Design Awards.

It is not uncommon for the two films to involve cross-strait competition. At the Golden Horse Awards, the Best Film Award was immediately given to his own "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and at the Golden Horse Awards, the popularity of "Infernal Affairs" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was completely reversed from Hong Kong. The behavior of the two Chinese film awards has made the media criticize a lot, and "Ming Pao" commented with great fanfare: "This is a battle of mood between the two places, and the movie itself has been put aside." You praise yours and I praise mine, which makes outsiders feel that the awards in the two places are self-entertaining and full of childishness...... No wonder people can't look down on Chen Tian!

Chen Tiandu: "......"

The premiere halls were filled with a light and heavy classical soundtrack, like the opening of "Infernal Affairs", which brought the audience into an epic atmosphere as soon as they entered. With just one soundtrack, all kinds of feelings about the first part in the audience's hearts came to mind.

The audience quietly watched the images on the big screen, and the color style of the picture was very changeable, with a style of historical change from the 90s to the new century in Hong Kong.

It's a heartless story, who are you, a good guy or a bad guy? (To be continued......)
