Stop it, boss, I’ve never seen a movie made like this.

Chapter 308 308. If Director Chen performs abnormally this time

Cultural and tourism sector.

Liang Xu was discussing the Hong Kong Island promotional film project in the conference room, and what was placed in front of him was Du Hua's "Wu Shuang" from the Hong Kong Island Film Association.

This script was submitted by Wang Kexin before yesterday. He didn't care at first. After all, his chosen candidate was Chen Li, and he also knew the level of his own local filmmakers.

He was prepared to just perfunctory it, and when he finished his meal and returned to the office after finishing his work, he suddenly remembered the script and read it casually.

Then he froze, sat up straight again, and started reading from the beginning. The surprise in his eyes was clear, and he obviously didn't expect the script to be so unexpected.

"This level is very high. Was it really written by a Hong Kong Islander?"

Liang Xu was very excited after reading it. The screenwriter was Du Hua. He knew that this young man had been very active in Hong Kong Island recently and was said to be the initiator of the Hong Kong Island Film Association protest.

I originally thought that he was a young man with a stubborn streak, but now I know that he does have the capital to be arrogant.

Although it was just a script, Liang Xu could already imagine how the movie would look, which would be very interesting.

He stood up and paced back and forth with the script. This time, the Film Association really handed over a satisfactory answer. If it was normal, he would definitely be happy, but now, he is worried.

Some blame themselves for being too impulsive and should not have made the decision to invite Chen Li so quickly.

In his opinion, Chen Li was only at this level. If Director Chen's performance was a little worse this time, how would he choose?

If Chen Li's script is chosen, the local film industry will definitely be in chaos and will protest. When the time comes, he will be disgraced and his face will be tarnished.

But if he chose the local one, he didn't tell Chen Li that it was a competition. Suddenly he saw the other party solemnly inviting him over, but in the end there was no movement at all. Wasn't it offending?

Hiss, hiss. It’s over, it’s a dead end!

Liang Xu walked back and forth, his mind in a mess. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and have a meeting to see what to do.

At the meeting, the subordinate departments were also very impressed with their views on "Wushuang".

"Director Liang, I feel that since the locals are not weak and the script produced this time is also very sincere, we can actually let local filmmakers do it. As for Director Chen, if you can't speak, I can apologize on your behalf. "

"Yes. After all, Chen Li is not from Hong Kong. How could his script be more Hong Kong than that of a local? I would say I don't need to bother him."

"I've had many people in the industry watch "Wushuang" and they're all very optimistic about it. If nothing else, if we invite a few movie stars to star in it, I think the box office will be guaranteed."

"I believe Director Chen will be reasonable."

Everyone expressed their opinions, and Liang Xu also felt that it made sense, but he was also invited, so he couldn't just refuse it. He looked at Wang Kexin and said, "President Wang, what do you think we should do?"

Wang Kexin pondered for a moment and then said: "Let's not rush it now. Let's wait until Director Chen Li's script is delivered. Maybe it will be better?"

After hearing this, a bearded guy on the other side sneered and said: "President Wang, if it were another script, I also believe that Director Chen would be better, but this time it requires 'Hong Kong Island temperament', which is not something ordinary people can achieve. To be honest, If Director Chen can reach the level of "Wushuang" this time, I will be surprised."

Everyone kept nodding, obviously approving of it.

Wang Kexin frowned slightly. He knew that this bearded man was a good friend of Du Hua and they wore the same pair of pants. He admired him so much now. Needless to say, he definitely wanted Du Hua to rise to power.

This is the circle

Liang Xu looked at his watch and said slowly: "No rush, Director Chen said he has finished writing the script and is sending someone to deliver it. It will arrive soon. We will know what to choose after reading it."

"If Director Chen's performance is a little worse this time, or at the same level as in "Wushuang", for the sake of the overall situation, even if I am scolded and resented by him, I can only apologize to him."

This Hong Kong Island mission involves the development of Hong Kong Island's tourism industry in the next few years, which is almost linked to the residents' economy. We must be cautious and not careless.

For this reason, in addition to fully funding the filming this time, the department will also give the director an additional 50 million in fees and box office dividends, which is considered a big bet. If you mess up, there will definitely be a stain on your career resume.

At this moment, the subordinate knocked on the door and walked in, holding several brochures in his hands.

"Director Liang, Director Chen's script has arrived."

Liang Xu was shocked, stood up and said, "Bring it here."

When the subordinates handed out the script, everyone couldn't wait to pick it up and read it.

"Infernal Affairs"?

What does this name mean?

The name of the movie is the first impression of the audience, and it is also the first message conveyed by the producer. Except for literary and artistic films that like to be mysterious, the names of most commercial movies make it clear at a glance what the content is.

Is Infernal Affairs also going to be an art film?

This thought flashed through Liang Xu's mind, and then he opened the cover.

The conference room was quiet, and everyone was seriously immersed in the story in the script. Sometimes their faces were solemn, and sometimes they kept exclaiming.

Wang Kexin's breathing continued to get heavier. There are already too many such movies about undercover cops and gangsters in Hong Kong. It's hard to overstate how distinctive they are, but there are just too many of them, and the audience is tired of them. Now, he actually started from this one. I actually felt a different new meaning between the lines.

"The plot is so wonderful."

"The cause and effect of characters, the choices of human nature, and the struggle between black and white are a bit philosophical!"

"The narrative is completely in service of the plot, without any side details, and it is completely completed in one go. Is this Chen Li's strength?"

Surprised!

Too shocked!

If the previous "Wushuang" gave them a feeling of Hong Kong movies returning to their peak, then this "Infernal Affairs" is a breakthrough to the peak and new glory! ! !

Liang Xu put down the script, his mind still buzzing, obviously confused by Chen Li's move.

He suddenly remembered what he said before: "If Director Chen does not perform well"

He laughed at himself, poor performance? Is it the same level as "Wushuang"?

How ignorant and arrogant do I have to be to imagine such a situation? Do I really think that a fledgling Du Hua can compare to the ceiling of the industry?

But then he felt excited again, and the script in his hand trembled slightly. He had a hunch that once this movie was shot, it would definitely be a sensation all over the country, and even the world! !

The faces of everyone below were also extremely complicated, ranging from shame, embarrassment, and embarrassment.

The awkward atmosphere spread in the conference room. When I thought about what they had discussed before, I could dig out a three-room and two-living room with my toes on the ground.

"Ahem. Everyone, is this matter still controversial?"

Everyone shook their heads like rattles and said one by one: "No, no, no, no."

"It's not that "Wushuang" is bad, but "Infernal Affairs" is even better!"

"Hey, Director Chen is still Director Chen, he is still at the insurmountable peak!"
