"Yesterday, the Xiangjiang police cracked an underground drug manufacturing factory and arrested 24 suspects......"

In front of Li Chencan, news was playing on the video.

He looked at these pictures and secretly applauded in his heart.

Seriously, the empire is much more developed than China in another time and space, but the crime rate of the empire is also higher than that time and space...... And the crime rate here is a lot of big crimes.

After all, here, ZF's control is definitely not as awesome as in another time and space. Gangs are also more rampant than those of another plane.

In another plane, black. The gang went a little too far, and ZF swooped them out in a few clicks. But there are more difficult legal provisions here, and many people have laws of one kind or another to protect them, and the bad guys can be protected by the law. Moreover, ZF's control over the private sector is far less terrifying than that of the centralized body in another time and space......

So many things are also good and bad, they are all double-edged swords, and while there is greater so-called freedom, there are also greater risks.

In this way, the contradictions between the empire, the people and these criminals in this time and space are not small.

On the other side of the ocean, the crime rate in the United States is much higher than that of the empire, and the criminals there are all kinds of strange people, and the prevalence of capitalist profit-only theory has brought about the explosion of the devil's Pandora's box in the heart. So, over there, the contradictions between the people and criminals have brought one superhero after another in their movies, while there are basically no superhero movies on the imperial side, and there are more modern new martial arts movies. There are also endless cop movies.

And Li Chencan's new film is planning to make a police movie...... Well, of course, it's not his own creation, but a copy from another time and space. An epoch-making cop movie.

Li Chencan turned off the video news, packed up his laptop, packed up the script and storyboard that he had copied a few points, there was a car waiting for him downstairs, and he took the car and rushed to the agreed place.

Today is a small meeting.

By now, the preparation for the new film is almost complete, including the selection of venues. The rental of various equipment and props has also been roughly completed, and the selection of actors is almost over, and the meeting is now taking place. It was Li Chencan as the chief director, Luo Lijie as the assistant director, and Wei Ansheng as the producer, film outreach director, and several main actors involved.

Of course, Li Chencan is also the main figure of such a meeting.

I came to the place where the meeting was held. Most of them have already arrived early.

After Li Chencan just arrived. Li Song and Lu Weidong also came over.

Seeing Li Song and Lu Weidong again, Li Chencan also walked over with a smile to say hello, and everyone can almost be regarded as friends now.

"Thank you, both of you, for accepting the invitation." Li Chencan said politely first.

"What are you talking about!" Li Songha said with a smile: "Actually, I was attracted by your kid's script!" I really don't know how your head grows, this film is completely different from the genre of "Those Years" and "Old Boy", but the script is so attractive, anyway, I can't put it down after watching it! ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" Lu Weidong also smiled at this time and said: "I am also completely attracted by this script!" This script and name also go well together, as you can imagine. As long as you shoot exactly according to the idea of this script, you will definitely be able to succeed again. ”

"Then take two auspicious words!"

Li Song and Lu Weidong generally have no problems with their acting skills. Their acting skills can be felt easily when Li Chencan is filming "Old Boy", which is quite good, and it is more than enough to perform his new movie.

After everyone sat down, the script of "Infernal Affairs" and some of the storyboard scripts were also sent to everyone.

Li Chencan's new movie is to shoot this eternal classic in the history of Chinese police and gangster films, a place that can never be bypassed.

The film "Infernal Affairs" appeared at the beginning of the new millennium, and it immediately brought about a huge impact, and the sudden appearance in the environment of the Great Depression of Hong Kong films, which was already close to the collapse of the market at the time, was a complete accident.

At that time, Hong Kong films had declined, and there was no longer the glory of Oriental Hollywood in the eighties and nineties, and after the handover, Hong Kong directors and actors went north one after another.

In that environment, "Infernal Affairs" was born.

This movie has just appeared, and in terms of word-of-mouth and box office, everyone mistakenly thinks that Hong Kong films have re-emerged......

The name of the movie is a Buddhist term, and in it it is about two people who have exchanged identities and are in Infernal Affairs. They are terrified every day and night, and they live in fear every minute and every second.

Because of such a whimsical idea of identity exchange, the classic movie brought by it has opened a new chapter in the history of Chinese police and gangster films.

After the film became famous, its influence was definitely not limited to China, but spread to the West. Scorsese took it seriously, and the remake made "The Departed", which won several Oscars.

However......

"The Departed" directly stole the script of "Infernal Affairs" and reconstructed a story, in fact, strictly speaking, this film is basically incomparable with "Infernal Affairs", but it won the Oscar in the end, but the most sad thing is that they have never admitted that this movie comes from "Infernal Affairs", and the main creative team of the film has never given China's "Infernal Affairs" a proper name.

The details and even the entire framework of "Infernal Affairs" are quite perfectly structured, and the classic plot seems to be turbulent on the one hand, but on the other hand, it is very familiar. However, "Infernal Affairs" is not tense enough, the foreshadowing is perfunctory, and it is in a hurry to finish a story, which seems top-heavy...... Although it has the advantages of being more realistic and cruel, Yu does not hide his flaws, if someone thinks that "Infernal Affairs" is much better than "Infernal Affairs", it is either that the aesthetics of his films are embarrassing and unusual, or the inferiority complex of Chinese films is engraved into the bone marrow, and there is no cure.

What's the use of saying more, though? People who have used creativity don't admit it, what can be done.

Li Chencan comes from another time and space, and of course he has experienced the mentality of Chinese filmmakers in that time and space, all kinds of moods, their joys, sorrows, sorrows, and shame......

And in this plane, that can't happen.

After filming "Those Years", he will not immediately go to make films such as youth nostalgia, but will start making some real feature films.

"Infernal Affairs" is a pretty good choice, although this is a police movie, but as long as it is well controlled, the cost of the movie can be controlled at tens of millions.

Before the official start of filming, it was the meeting now.

The main purpose of this kind of meeting is to give everyone an impression, so that everyone can at least have a little bottom of this new movie, know what to shoot next, and how to shoot these things.

At such a meeting, everyone can say something about themselves.

The meeting went very smoothly, and Li Chencan also answered some of everyone's questions, and tried his best to explain some things about this movie to everyone.

Li Chencan made everyone more aware of what role they needed to play in the filming of this movie, and also understood what they needed to do as a part of the movie.

After these things are said for the time being, and everyone has a concept, the people in charge of the props, the scene, and the actors, Li Chencan also asked them to withdraw for the time being, and the main thing left is Wei Ansheng, Sun Yunzhang, Qin Dan, and Luo Lijie, because now we have to discuss issues such as the promotion and distribution of the movie.

Until now, everyone can also speak freely.

After the success of "Those Years", Wei Ansheng basically had to follow Li Chencan's rhythm, especially after seeing part of the script of "Infernal Affairs", his confidence in Li Chencan has also increased a lot.

Others are even more so.

Li Chencan now said to Qin Dan and Wei Ansheng: "Our new movie, although it has not started filming yet, but a lot of promotional things must also be prepared, the movie will start filming soon, before the filming starts, I need everyone to prepare a start-up press conference during this time, and this time it can't be too low-key." ”

Although "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was mentioned in the promotion and new plan when Li Chencan's personal studio was officially established, the launching ceremony of the film was not held, and the filming basically started quietly.

"Infernal Affairs" is not enough, Li Chencan plans to hold a start-up ceremony, and the scale of this start-up ceremony cannot be small.

Wei Ansheng nodded: "There is no problem with these, after "Those Years", the media still pay more attention to the new movie. ”

"Well, that's fine, I need a little bit more media to be there. In addition, in terms of publicity, our propaganda slogan is to make a different police movie! ”

Li Chencan's slogan is really big enough, this is almost a slogan that some famous directors dare to use, and others are also a little surprised when they hear it, the people who shout this kind of slogan either have huge confidence in themselves, or they are purely self-aggrandizing.

However, Li Chencan's script is indeed worthy of such a slogan, so everyone was a little surprised, and then their expressions returned to calm.

"Infernal Affairs" has indeed broken the narrative style of many conventional police and gangster films, and the double-line advancement has pushed this film's attainments in plot to the peak.

Li Chencan is also confident enough to realize this slogan.

"Okay, I'll get ready." After hearing Li Chencan's words, Qin Dan quickly became a businesslike face.

A single dog, too! Ask for protection! (To be continued......)
