Entertainment: From the Octagon to the big screen

Chapter 396 - On Scripts and Life and Death
To be honest, the overall score of the series "Operation Moscow" is one notch lower than that of "Operation Icebreaker".

But the former is indeed better than the latter in portraying the evil forces, probably because some of the villains are Russians.

This allows the screenwriting team to place some slightly outrageous violent scenes and bloody scenes directly on the Russians.
Theoretically, the filming permit application for this series was more difficult than that for "Operation Icebreaker", but I didn't expect it to be done in one go.

Therefore, the management, encouraged by this situation, decided to invite as many big names as possible to make up for the thin cast lineup.

After all, among the starring team of the series, only Xia Yu and Zhang Zhijian are well-known actors, and the rest are half-hearted.

The actress Li Yitong's previous performances were okay but not popular. After joining the new owner, she improved but the time was short.

The female villain Jin Chen was negatively affected by her breakup with Deng Lun and the lawsuit against Tangren Film and Television, and her reputation was polarized.

At the beginning, the crew of "Operation Moscow" did not want to use Jin Chen, but Dilraba Studio said that Li Yitong was bound to Jin Chen.

Either they all sign contracts and join the team, or neither of them goes. After some back and forth, the management chooses to accept the binding proposal.

Dilraba and Guli Nazha also agreed to help guest star as two female police officers, and Li Yitong's salary was reduced by 11%.

Li Yitong's lost income and the missing commission from Dilraba's studio will be made up for both by Gulinaza's own money.

This is currently the only way Guli Nazha can help her good friend Jin Chen. Next year Guli Nazha will break out of her contract and switch to Jiaxing.

Zeng Jia has already negotiated with Tangren Film and Television and the latter has promised not to set up a blockade, so Guli Nazha cannot directly support Jin Chen.

I can only ask my good sister Dilireba to find some work for Jin Chen, who is bored at home, so that she can adjust her schedule and mood through work.

Dilraba and Li Yitong confiscated the money that Gulinazha used to fill the holes.

After all, everyone has a very good relationship and favors are more valuable than money in this circle.

What's more, in response to Gulinazha's heroic spirit of silently helping Jin Chen, Dilraba and Li Yitong were also willing to do their best.

But Dilraba reminded the two sisters not to get too close to Jin Chen. Daxi’s character was not very picky but her private life was not very good.

Guli Nazha is a typical love-minded person, but Daxi is the queen of the sea. Their views on love and relationships have absolutely nothing in common.

Li Yitong remembered Dilraba's words deeply in his mind and reminded himself to be careful when getting along with Jin Chen after joining the group.

In addition, Dilraba also asked Li Yitong to lead Mio Imada, but Shang Yuxian did not join the crew of "Operation Moscow".

This young lady has been recruited by iQiyi's "Animal Control", and her partners Chen He and Wang Ziwen will serve as the second female lead in the show.

Because he has acted in "Detective Chinatown II", Shang Yuxian has no interest in suspense, police and criminal and documentary dramas.

Moreover, this "Operation Moscow" is somewhat of a competition with "Operation Icebreaker", so Shang Yuxian doesn't want to go.

Otherwise, in which case would Jin Chen and Li Yitong be bound to join the team? The role of the female lead villain was originally won by the studio for her.

But comparing the two books "Operation Moscow" and "Animal Management Bureau", the latter is the most suitable for Shang Yuxian's thoughts.

"I think the drama "Operation Moscow" is not very good." Wang Jinsong filled Wu Gang and Chen Yu with more than half a cup of kung fu tea each.

"The wine should be full and the tea should be half." Wu Gang stroked the purple clay cup and said. The main structure of "Operation Moscow" is a bit skewed.

Although "Operation Icebreaker" always has some scruples in its depiction of evil.

However, after repeated adjustments, the IQs of the heroes and villains in the play are basically the same.

In the revised ending, the positive forces represented by Chen Yu and Wu Gang were able to win mainly because the support and assistance behind them were too strong.

In the same way, Wang Jinsong died and failed because he was simply unable to resist the power of a country in a corner, and he could not escape the fate of destruction.

As for the average IQs of the good guys and the villains, they are roughly the same. There are foolhardy young men among the good guys, and there are also trash among the villains.

Therefore, the constantly adjusted "Operation Icebreaker" is a highlight in terms of the battle of wits between the three forces of white, gray and black.

The good side has Sima Yi, the villain has Zhuge Liang, and the borderline faction can finally bring out Lu Zijing, who is good at fighting ambushes.

"But the screenwriting team of "Operation Moscow" is very opportunistic." Wang Jinsong ordered Wu Gang half a cup of Kung Fu tea again.

Chen Yu couldn't stand the bitter Kung Fu tea, so he asked the waiter to bring him a bottle of mineral water. Wu Gang boasted about the pistachio skin and said that the screenwriters of "Operation Moscow" made the villain cruel, cunning and focused on love.

This alone is undoubtedly a success, because the villain can be considered a human being with flesh and blood and simple dialectical logic, not a wild beast.

From the 1980s to the 1990s, the owners of the beheading business at the borders and ports with Lao Maozi in the Northeast were either pure gangsters or sworn gangs.

Colleagues admire each other for being able to save their lives and property after using their tricks and courage to succeed. Anyway, if you mistreat others today, you may be set up the next day.

But at that time, whoever dared to kill the rebel brothers would have to be fast and lucky.

Otherwise, there will definitely be no good results, and you will basically be killed if caught.

The main thing he (she) faces is the search and pursuit of all the villains in the entire industry.

This industry characteristic was formulated by law thieves who came out of the Gulag Islands.

This group of people integrated all the big cats and kittens that were living near the border between Northeast China and Laomaozi.

Although the law thief doesn't care how these people make money, the law thief will standardize the procedures and procedures for selling stolen goods, and add middlemen or intermediary systems to the industry.

In order to ensure the privacy and security of the shipper, inspection party and consignee to the greatest extent, this is a huge progress in the Russian robbery and kidnapping industry.

Therefore, the screenwriting team of "Moscow Operation" is indeed very realistic and subtle in shaping the evil forces.

However, the Chinese and Russian police in their works are very facial-looking and idealistic.

What did Chen Yu, Wu Gang and others rely on to find clues in "Operation Ice Breaking"? Undercover agents, informants, large-scale investigations and secret visits.

There is no magical thing like being full of wisdom or seeing the truth at a glance. You can't figure it out sitting in front of the computer screen.

It was only during the regular meeting that everyone gathered together to summarize the information and information they had on hand.

But in the book "Operation Moscow", Xia Yu, Li Yitong and others can find various clues and targets by just looking at the photos.

"There's no way we can compare with others. The policemen in "Operation Moscow" are all Erlang Zhenjun, Monkey King and Tingting Beast." Wang Jinsong curled his lips and smiled.

Wu Gang waved his hand and changed the topic back to the ending of "Operation Icebreaker". Currently, chief director Fu Dongyu and the screenwriting team have come up with three different endings.

First, Lin Yaodong, played by Wang Jinsong, and Zhao Jialiang, played by Simon Yam, died, Chen Yu's character returned to the police force, and Wu Gang accepted the award and rose to prominence.

Secondly, the characters of Wang Jinsong and Simon Yam both survived to the end, and the former was tried and executed by justice and the people through legal procedures.

Simon Yam, who has already recognized his father and son, quit the police force and enjoys a comfortable life. Chen Yu accepted Wu Gang's suggestion and continued to serve as the second and fifth son as an unsung hero.

This can leave a clue for the second part, which will make it easier for iQiyi to make money from the series. Director Liu Zhangmu is very inclined to choose it as the ending of the series.

Wu Gang estimates that if there is a follow-up, Liu Zhangmu will probably take over the post of chief director.

There is no problem with Fu Dongyu's ability, but in the later period, he liked to turn it in whenever something happened, which made Gong Yu somewhat dissatisfied with him.

Thirdly, the roles of Wang Jinsong and Simon Yam were fine, but Chen Yu died in the line of duty. Although Wu Gang received awards, his position was not promoted.

This ending also creates an extended context for the second part, and conveniently kills Chen Yu, the most expensive person in the film, to make the audience stop thinking.

"Why do I feel like the ending of the third version has a bit of the slutty flavor of "Infernal Affairs"?"

Chen Yu flicked the water bottle and looked at Wang Jinsong and Wu Gang who were smiling inexplicably and murmured.

Wang Jinsong waved his hand and said that most of iQiyi’s top executives did not agree with the ending of the third part.

iQiyi’s management generally believes that Chen Yu is both a one-stop shop and a cash cow.

Although he likes to cause trouble and is expensive, Chen Yu's overseas reputation is really useful.

Even if the drama "Icebreaker" is not exported, it can still increase iQiyi's popularity.
