Chapter 310: Infernal Affairs

"Director Zhou......"

"Director Zhou, hello."

"Hello, President Zhou."

"President Zhou, the script of "The Grandmaster" is so well written, we old men are teary-eyed, we have to learn from you no matter what!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhou Yang has held several meetings.

But in all fairness, he doesn't have a good impression of many directors.

They are selfish, powerful, power-loving, attach importance to so-called origins, and control the film industry with one hand......

In fact, when he stepped into the large conference room of the relevant department, he already had those sneering faces in his mind.

Both sides tore their faces last time, and this time, can these people still greet themselves with a smile?

But......

When he walked to the conference room, he saw a lot of people coming to greet him with a smile on his face.

Cao Bangguo even came over in person, shook hands with him, and highly praised the script of "The Grandmaster", and the arm he held refused to let go for a long time, revealing enthusiasm.

Looking around, Zhou Yang didn't see any cynicism, only kind and enthusiastic smiling faces, and even when Zhou Yang saw Shen Jinsong's apprentice, Xu Yaoyang stood up as soon as he saw him coming over, and personally pulled out a chair for Zhou Yang, giving him enough cards.

Zhou Yang sat in his position, looking at the enthusiastic faces, and couldn't guess what they were thinking.

Django walked in a few minutes after Zhou Yang sat down, and he came in with a group of directors from Hong Kong Island, smiling and talking about the cooperation plan on Hong Kong Island on the mainland.

Vaguely, Zhou Yang heard Django introducing his script of "Night Walker", and heard the words police movie.

When he saw Zhou Yang, Django instantly greeted him warmly.

"Haha, Director Zhou, welcome, welcome, welcome to integrate into this big collective ......"

Zhou Yang smiled and shook Django's hand.

The more enthusiastic Django was, the heavier the doubt in Zhou Yang's heart.

It seems that everyone has never had any contradictions, nor has there been any dissatisfaction, as if they are old friends who have worked together for many years.

Feng Kai, who came in later, was also stunned by this battle, and the imaginary cold reception did not appear at all, even the previous Song William, who was full of feces, greeted him with a smile, and Feng Dao Feng kept shouting......

He and Zhou Yang glanced at each other.

Both of them felt that there must be a demon in this meeting.

Wang Shuai and Huang Jiacheng came in later.

As soon as Huang Jiacheng came in, both the directors on Hong Kong Island and the mainland flocked around, just like fans seeing a big star, all kinds of flattering words made Zhou Yang stunned, and even Zhou Yilin personally moved a chair for Huang Jiacheng in laughter......

Huang Jiacheng was also thick-skinned, listened to these flattering words happily, excused himself slightly, and after pretending to be modest, he sat down unceremoniously near the rostrum.

Wang Shuai glanced at these smiling directors.

"Hypocrisy."

"Flame-prone guy!"

He sat next to Zhou Yang and muttered quietly.

"What's wrong? Director Wang? Zhou Yang didn't hear it very really, and asked subconsciously.

"No, Xiao Zhou, haha, the script of "The Grandmaster" is really good, I was moved to see it...... Next time you have time, help me write a literary book. By the way, I want to make a war movie recently, or will you help the staff officers? ”

"Ah, Director Wang is modest, I don't understand this ......"

"You kid don't hide it, haha!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Wang Shuai turned his head to look at Zhou Yang, and his eyes were originally jealous of Huang Jiacheng in a flash, and he instantly smiled and squinted, and when he looked at Zhou Yang, he almost narrowed into a slit.

Somehow, Zhou Yang always felt a chill coming, and he felt a little uneasy.

Half an hour later......

The door to the conference room opened.

An Xiao wore a serious professional attire, came from a distance and greeted the directors one by one.

The originally lively conference room instantly became quiet, and everyone looked at the secretary who was temporarily invited to preside over the exchange meeting.

"Zhang Ke has something to do temporarily, I will replace Zhang Ke to preside over the meeting, today's meeting is aimed at cross-strait film exchanges and cooperation, and to deal with the opportunities and crises that will be faced next......"

"There was a winning battle in March, and in late April, the Hollywood blockbuster "Sewell" was released......"

"Hollywood movies are still ...... strong"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After An Xiao finished speaking on the main seat, he took out a pen and paper and handed the microphone to Feng Minrui, the president of the Huaxia Film Association......

Huang Jiacheng was very happy, said some modest words, and after pretending to excuse himself, he talked about some of the situations encountered during the filming of "The Grandmaster" without saying a word......

Zhou Yang listened to it several times, and at first felt that Huang Jiacheng's words were full of technical content and full of various educational significance for warning people, but then after careful consideration, he felt that it was wrong, and found that almost every sentence of Huang Jiacheng was "bragging."

And it is especially happy, as if giving people a feeling of wanting to compete with the heavens.

"Ahem, ahem...... Director Huang's filming experience is indeed worth learning and respecting, President Feng, or ...... Where does today's meeting begin? ”

After blowing for more than ten minutes, the more An Xiao listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, and finally took advantage of the gap between Huang Jiacheng's words and began to glance at Feng Minrui and Chairman Feng.

Chairman Feng nodded with a smile on his face, and then immediately began to organize the discussion.

The discussion session began quickly.

In fact, the content of the discussion can't be avoided by Huang Jiacheng, it's nothing more than Huang Jiacheng himself blowing just now, and now the group of Hong Kong Island directors are helping Huang Jiacheng to blow ......

After about ten minutes of blowing, it was officially extended from "The Grandmaster" to Hong Kong Island movies.

The originally cheerful and enthusiastic atmosphere began to gradually become a little low.

After the turn of the millennium, there is a general consensus that the talent in the Hong Kong Island film industry has withered.

In fact, not only the film industry, but even the TV industry is facing a state of alternating between the old and the new but no one is taking the lead.

Turn on the TV and play those programs, you will find that there are a few familiar faces back and forth, and those young actors in their twenties who are over half a hundred years old and still active on the screen with concealer appear under the camera, and the media hype will never be separated from the "girlish feeling", as if constantly telling the audience that although I am middle-aged, I am still young......

In a sense, this is probably the sadness of an industry.

Of course, it is also the trend of the times.

On the one hand, after the invasion of Hollywood and the huge impact on Hong Kong Island, a large number of directors and actors left Hong Kong Island to develop in Hollywood.

On the other hand, China's mainland economy is gradually rising, and many people are keenly aware of the big cake of the mainland, and they have taken advantage of the heat to shift their focus to the mainland.

Who doesn't want to make a fortune for such a good thing?

Who will guard this place?

However, in the Hong Kong Island film industry, where talent is withering, there are still some people who hold on to the dream of "Oriental Hollywood", looking forward to the day when Hong Kong Island films can rise again.

"The Grandmaster" undoubtedly gave them hope, but the film "The Grandmaster" alone is completely not enough, and it will not bring back the directors and actors who have developed overseas.

The mainland hopes to have more contact and get closer to Hong Kong Island through movies, while Hong Kong Island hopes to use the power of the government to bring Hong Kong Island movies back to the peak and return to the era of "Oriental Hollywood", so there was this meeting.

The disadvantages of not going to a professional university appeared.

Zhou Yang listened to the discussions of some directors and confirmed the direction of the new movie, but although Zhou Yang felt that some of the names were very high-end, he couldn't understand them.

There are no such things in the books I have read, and there are no these terms in the theories I have heard, and there are some English words mixed in from time to time, Zhou Yang is dizzy, and he only knows that Django is going to invest 100 million in "Night Walker" on stage, and plans to invite actors from the two sides of the strait and three places to help, and he will shoot something like that on Hong Kong Island......

Although he didn't introduce the movie, he only said the words police movie, but Zhou Yang suddenly flashed a movie in his mind.

"Infernal Affairs"!

In terms of details, Zhou Yang can't remember much, but Zhou Yang still knows the general context.

Even Zhou Yang thought of the original world's evaluation of this movie.

[The four major actors are on the same stage]

[The United States and Japan compete for remakes]

【Rescue work】

When Zhou Yang thought of these words, he suddenly fell into that era of renting pirated movie discs.

There is a lot less piracy in this world than in the original world, if this movie ......

"President Zhou?"

"President Zhou?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Just when Zhou Yang was thinking about the plot, he heard someone calling him.

He subconsciously looked up, but saw Django looking at him with concern: "President Zhou, I want to invite you to be the star of "Night Walker", what do you think?" ”

"Huh?"

There was silence in the conference room, and everyone was looking at Zhou Yang.

Zhou Yang was about to speak, but was interrupted by a piercing mobile phone ringtone.

Didn't you set your phone to silent?

The "Baoli" copycat mobile phone is very loud, just like the charge, and the beep beeps go straight out.

However, because the mobile phone has just been put into production not long ago, and it is a copycat machine, although the function is very strong, there are always some problems, and many times the mobile phone will suddenly turn on and sing in the middle of the night.

It was done several times, and Zhou Yang thought he had seen a ghost.

The call was from Christian.

Not long after Zhou Yang hung up the phone......

Christian's phone rang again.

Helpless......

Zhou Yang could only smile awkwardly and lowered his head to answer the phone.

"Mr. Zhou Yang, "Struggle" has officially been shortlisted for Cannes, and Cannes has also opened up a unique special award for "Struggle"!"

Although Zhou Yang went out, in the conference room, Christian's fluent and extremely excited, almost roaring voice could be vaguely heard.

The room suddenly became even more silent.

"President Zhou, the speakerphone of this mobile phone is really loud......"

Huang Jiacheng coughed slightly, breaking the calm.
