Chapter 654: Adaptation
At the press conference, Xu Qian was talking on the stage about the determination of the Hong Kong police to fight crime and maintain social order and stability in Hong Kong.
The reporters in the audience did not pay attention to Xu Qi'an's speech, and the attention of many of them was attracted by a certain figure sitting in the front row of the venue.
Everyone couldn't figure out why Lin Youlun would appear at the venue for the police press conference, and he was still sitting in the guest seat.
Many people are thinking about this problem in their heads, but no one particularly noticed that a senior police official wearing the epaulette of the chief superintendent walked into the venue halfway and sat down on the seat next to Lin Youlun.
"Mr. Lin, I have admired the name for a long time!"
The Chief Superintendent took off his hat and reached out.
Lin Youlun didn't know each other in his impression, but on the current occasion, he still shook hands with him.
"I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, contemptible Ren Darong ......"
Lin Youlun silently recited the name "Ren Darong" in his heart, and suddenly remembered someone.
"May I ask what is the relationship between Chief Ren and Ren Dahua?"
"He's my brother." The other replied with a normal expression.
Lin Youlun's face suddenly showed a look of enlightenment, "I said how to look at Chief Ren so familiar." ”
Many people in the Hong Kong entertainment industry know about Ren Dahua and his brother Ren Darong, but because there are many rules in the entertainment industry that cannot be said, colleagues in the industry will not talk about these things to the outside world.
Huang Zhan once disclosed in front of the media that Ren Dahua's brother was a fake policeman, but Ren Dahua never mentioned it or showed it off to the outside world. is also because he has a friend and Ren Darong is a colleague.
There was a saying that there was a rumor in the market for a while. said that there is a male artist who has a strong relationship background in both black and white. At that time, everyone speculated about the identity of this person, but few people associated this matter with Ren Dahua, and in fact, this person was referring to Ren Dahua.
Ren Dahua is very popular in the entertainment industry, and Ren Darong is also well-known in the Hong Kong police circle, those major cases that are common in newspapers and public security anti-crime work, including organized crime and triad investigation bureau, Hong Kong Police Tactical Unit police, etc., have some relationship with Ren Darong.
Yam joined the police force at the age of 19 as a Probationary Inspector and worked through a variety of complex tasks in the police sector, from being the supervisor of the Organized Crime and Triad Investigation Bureau, to the supervisor of the Hong Kong PTU Police Tactical Unit, and then to the British police in the late 80s. Upon his return to Hong Kong, he was promoted to Chief Superintendent. After Hong Kong's return to China in 97, he was once promoted to the deputy commissioner of the Hong Kong Police Force, which is the current position of Xu Qian.
Seeing Lin Youlun here, Ren Darong was actually a little surprised.
"I chatted with Ah Hua, as long as I talked about things in the entertainment industry, I could often hear Mr. Lin's name, but I didn't expect to meet him here."
"I can't afford to take this seriously, Hong Kong people know that if someone is targeted by the governor, there is a good chance that the ending will not be too good." Lin Youlun said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Ren Darong laughed. "Mr. Lin is too exaggerated, I am not as big as you say. It's just a matter of doing your job. ”
"It's the chief who is too modest." Ren Darong is a very important member of the Hong Kong police force in the future, and Lin Youlun has the idea of making friends with Lu, and he speaks very politely.
Ren Darong waved his hand and was about to speak, just at this time Xu Qi'an stepped down after speaking, and the applause from the audience interrupted his words like this.
Xu Qi'an's seat was next to Lin Youlun, and after he got off the stage, he saw Lin Youlun and Ren Darong looking familiar, and asked strangely: "You knew each other before?" ”
"No, I just met, I only knew the younger brother of the chief in the past, but I didn't know the relationship between them."
Of course, Xu Qi'an knew that Ren Darong had a younger brother who was developing in the entertainment industry, and nodded when he heard Lin Youlun say this.
"It's better, I don't need to introduce you anymore. Ah Rong, here's the thing, Mr. Lin is going to make a movie that reflects the theme of the Flying Tigers, and we need some cooperation from the police during the filming, and I have decided to leave this matter to you to be responsible for. ”
Ren Darong glanced at Lin Youlun, and then nodded at Xu Qi'an, indicating that he was willing to accept this task.
Lin Youlun was very satisfied with Xu Qi'an's arrangement, smiled and thanked Xu Qi'an, and then bowed his hand to Ren Darong.
"Sir, I won't have to trouble you in the future."
Even Xu Qi'an was polite to Lin Youlun, but of course Ren Darong didn't dare to hold it up, and replied politely: "Mr. Lin, don't worry, I will do my best to assist you this time, and I will definitely satisfy you." ”
Lin Youlun was about to express his gratitude, but the host of the press conference invited him to the stage at this time, so he had to bow his hand to Ren Darong with a slight apology.
When Lin Youlun came to the stage, there was a quiet discussion among the reporters in the audience, and it was not until Lin Youlun stood in front of the microphone that it gradually quieted down.
"You must be wondering, why am I standing here? I know that the Hong Kong media has always been very imaginative, so this matter must be explained to everyone. The reason why I'm here is very simple, I recently read the news of the Hong Kong Flying Tigers killing the bandits in the newspaper, and then got inspiration from it, I want to make a movie about the Flying Tigers, and this aspect must get some support from the Hong Kong police, and I am here today to announce to you that the Hong Kong police have agreed to my request, and I believe that in the near future, a movie that truly reflects the Hong Kong Flying Tigers will meet you. ”
Lin Youlun knew that when he said this, the reporters in the audience would definitely have a lot of questions to ask, so as soon as he finished speaking, he handed the microphone back to the host and got off the stage directly.
At the press conference held by the police, the reporters present still understood the rules, although they held back their stomachs, but Lin Youlun was no longer on stage, and they were not good at continuing to ask.
After the press conference, Lin Youlun left under the arrangement of the police, and the reporters were not able to interview him for the first time, and it was Ren Darong who was responsible for sending Lin Youlun back on the police side.
In the car, Ren Darong and Lin Youlun chatted about this movie.
"Mr. Lam, to tell you the truth that is not very good, in fact, Hong Kong's shootout films are too casual in my opinion. The real police and bandit fight is not like that at all, not to mention that the protagonist is alone with a gun, and sweeps wildly without cover, and all the bad guys are dead at the end, but the protagonist is still alive and well. ”
Ren Darong had such thoughts, and Lin Youlun was not surprised.
"Sir, from the perspective of a professional, what you said is right, but the movie is made for ordinary audiences, and the director must do some exaggeration in order to attract the audience."
Ren Darong then asked: "So Mr. Lin wants to do the same thing this time?" ”
Lin Youlun shook his head, "In that case, I don't need to ask the police for help, there are too many gunfight movies in Hong Kong that you said, this time I am going to change the taste of the audience, all the content in the film must be as close to reality as possible, of course, the inevitable dramatization must be carried out, otherwise it will become a documentary." ”
Hong Kong movie action movies can be subdivided into two types: kung fu action and gunfight action, and most of Hong Kong's gunfight action movies are police movies.
Lin Youlun's impression reflects that the Hong Kong Flying Tigers theme of the movie meets this requirement, and now there is one, called "Flying Tiger", the exciting realistic gunfight is the biggest attraction of this movie, and the behind-the-scenes production team of the film's "Flying Tiger" is also extremely professional.
The director is Chen Jiashang, who studied national defense science and technology in the United States, he is very expert in military action weapons, and some of the actors in the film are professional firearms experts, and have participated in the behind-the-scenes production of many gunfight action movies, such as the fat team member under the male protagonist in the film, such a professional behind-the-scenes production team, in the history of Hong Kong gunfight action movie production is absolutely unprecedented, of course, the film effect produced is also very extraordinary.
Most of the content in the movie is strictly in accordance with reality, for example, the Flying Tigers' vehicle is a civilian passenger van with an ordinary license plate, and when the Flying Tigers are preparing to enter the room to arrest drug dealers, the rules of complete indoor close-quarters combat, with a clear division of labor, attack, support, sniping, sabotage, and blockade are all shown on the camera, and some key members of the Flying Tigers, such as snipers, wireless communicators, and attack groups, have appeared.
It is no exaggeration to say that "Flying Tiger" is the most professional gunfight action movie in Hong Kong in Lin Youlun's impression, but it is a pity that this movie is made very carefully, but the box office is not particularly satisfactory, the main reason is that Lin Youlun feels that it is related to the plot of the film.
This movie is about the Flying Tigers helping the customs to deal with the powerful and well-planned international drug trafficking syndicate, but I didn't expect that it also involved the mutinous US special forces, the Flying Tigers suffered a setback in the first battle, and then overcame difficulties and finally defeated a strong enemy.
Such a plot routine can only be regarded as decent, and the key is that the first defeat of the Flying Tigers brought the audience a sense of depression that was so serious that this part of the content that should be "raised" later did not fully function.
After watching the whole movie, the depression in the audience's hearts cannot be fully vented, and there are no big-name stars in the film, so the audience naturally refuses to buy it.
If he wants to make this movie, the first thing Lin Youlun has to do is to adapt the plot, and he has already thought about the adapted story theme.
