They came to an antique teahouse and sat down.
Xiao Yun Hai asked for a pot of first-rate Biluochun tea and poured it for everyone. He smiled and said, "Teacher Ye, Teacher Huang, have you been busy recently?"
Huang Qiusheng smiled. "I'm fine. Why? Are you thinking of asking us to act in your movie? "
He knew that Xiao Yunhai was very busy. On one hand, he had to do the post-production for "Inception". On the other hand, he had to help Zhao Wanqing produce her album. So, Huang Qiusheng was just joking.
But unexpectedly, Xiao Yunhai actually nodded, and said, "I really do have such a plan."
Ye Yongren was shocked. "Are you serious? How do you have time to act in a movie? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "The post-production for" Inception "will take more than two months. I've already said what I need to say. The rest will depend on the technicians. It's the same whether I'm there or not. As for Wan Qing's album, I can finish all the songs in less than two days. With her singing skills, it's not a problem for her to record. "
Huang Qiusheng asked, "Then what kind of movie are you going to act in?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Hong Kong's most classic police and gangster movie."
Ye Yongren frowned and shook his head. "Hong Kong has already made too many movies about this theme. It's really difficult to find a new path."
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "None of the themes will be bad. I have acted in a total of four movies. 'Charlotte's Troubles' and 'Do Not Disturb Me' won with comedy. 'Valiant Heroes' won with action. 'Inception', which is currently in production, won with special effects and suspense. Next, I will act in a police and gangster movie with an unexpected plot and actors' acting skills. So, I found the both of you. "
Ye Yongren said, "What's the name of the movie? How long will it take? "
Xiao Yunhai said with a solemn face: "Its name is 《Infernal Affairs》. This movie doesn't have any big scenes. The plot depends on the actors' acting skills. If the crew is well prepared and our acting skills are good, we can finish it in less than ten days. Teacher Ye, Teacher Huang, I can tell you clearly that 'Infernal Affairs' will be the pinnacle of Hong Kong's police and gangster movies. The most important reason why I'm acting in this movie is to attack those foreign blockbusters and stop them from wreaking havoc. "
Ever since Hua Xia's cinemas were occupied by foreign forces, Hollywood blockbusters started appearing. domestic movies were unable to fight back under their attacks.
MGM Grand's "Dinosaur Wars" took Hua Xia in half a month's time... in just half a month... in the box office..................... in... in....
Less than three days after the premiere of "Dinosaur Wars", Paramount's sci-fi film "Super Soldier" was released. In just two days, it made 840 million at the box office.
. and Columbia's war movie "Behind the Second World War" and 21st Century Fox's fantasy movie "Vampire Queen". They were all crazily sought after by Hua Xia fans.
According to statistics, in half a month's time, Hollywood movies had taken 13 billion from Hua Xia's box office. On the other hand, domestic movies were bleak, with a total of 1.2 billion. The difference between the two was huge.
When Xiao Yunhai saw this happen, he naturally didn't feel good.
Although he didn't have the lofty goal of reviving Hua Xia's movie industry, he didn't want to see foreign movies wreaking havoc in Hua Xia. It was basically impossible for "Inception" to be released before the end of the year.
Therefore, he planned to make a movie that wouldn't take too much time and could attract the audience to the cinemas. After thinking about it, Xiao Yunhai finally chose the classic movie "Infernal Affairs".
This movie could be said to be the pinnacle of intelligence in the previous world. It was co-directed by Liu Weiqiang and Mai Zhaohui. The four Best Actors also participated in it. It was a movie that saved Hong Kong at that time. It was said that it only took a week to finish filming and received countless good reviews.
It shone brightly at various award ceremonies and won countless awards. Even Hollywood bought the rights to adapt it and filmed the American version of "Infernal Affairs".
Ye Yongren said, "Since you dare to use this movie to snipe at those Hollywood blockbusters, it seems like you are very confident. Are you planning to release it globally? "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "That's right. 'Infernal Affairs' is not only suitable for domestic movies, but it is also suitable for foreign movies. Teacher Ye, Teacher Huang, what do you think? "
Huang Qiusheng said, "No problem, count me in. Our domestic movies can't lose to those foreigners. "
Ye Yongren said, "I have no problem too. Yunhai, can you tell us the general content of the movie first? "
"Of course."
Thus, Xiao Yunhai explained the plot of "Infernal Affairs" from beginning to end. Huang Qiusheng and Ye Yongren's eyes lit up as they listened. The more they listened, the more excited they became.
After Xiao Yunhai finished, Huang Qiusheng slammed the table and said, "Good movie."
Ye Yongren also praised, "This is the pinnacle of intelligence movies. No wonder you have so much confidence."
Zhao Wanqing, who had been silent all this time, said with a smile, "More importantly, there are no big scenes in it. As long as the pre-production is done well and the actors perform well, it will end very quickly."
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "So this movie has very high requirements for the actors' acting skills. Those whose acting skills are not up to standard will be rejected. Teacher Ye will act as Liu Jianmin, Teacher Huang will act as Huang Zhicheng, and I will act as Chen Yongren. As for the role of Han Chen, I hope Teacher Liang can play it. I just don't know if he is willing. "
Huang Qiusheng said happily, "Old Liang's matter will be settled by Old Ye and me. I don't believe that he won't be tempted by such a good movie. Hahaha, when the time comes, the four of us will compete on the same stage. We will definitely beat those Hollywood blockbusters. "
Ye Yongren said, "Yunhai, quickly write the script. I have to think about it carefully. I don't want to be suppressed by the three of you at that time. If that happens, I will lose a lot of face. "
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "I'm the one who will be under the most pressure when acting with the several teachers, okay? I will write the script in two days and send it to the two teachers. I will start to set up the crew tomorrow and ask them to go to Xiangjiang in advance to find the shooting location. I will take care of the selection of the other roles. I guarantee that they will all be first-class actors. "
"This year's Spring Festival is February 28th. We will try to finish shooting before February 5th and release it on February 20th. I have seen the screening schedule of Hua Xia Cinema. They will also release several blockbusters during the Spring Festival. We will use 'Infernal Affairs' to teach them a lesson. We only have one goal, to kill them. "
Ye Yongren and Huang Qiusheng were excited by Xiao Yunhai's words. They said in unison, "Okay."
Zhao Wanqing said, "Hubby, I want to play the role of Li Xiner in the movie. What do you think?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Your acting is not a problem. But aren't you going to produce an album? "
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Li Xiner's role has so few scenes. If the shooting goes well, I'm afraid that it will take less than a day to finish."
Huang Qiusheng teased, "Yunhai, you should hurry up and say yes. This Li Xiner will have a passionate scene with you. If you continue to refuse, it means that there is something wrong with your heart. Hahaha. "
Ye Yongren couldn't help but laugh.
Zhao Wanqing blushed and said, "Of course not."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Okay. As for the role of Liu Jianmin's fiancée, I want Sister Yu to play it. She seems to be preparing for the wedding now. I will inform her in advance. After the filming starts, the two of you will shoot your scenes first and try to finish it in one day. This way, it will not delay your work. "
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said, "Okay."
Ye Yongren smiled and said, "If that's the case, the cast of our movie will be very strong."
Xiao Yunhai raised his teacup and said, "Let's drink tea instead of wine and toast to the success of 'Infernal Affairs'."
"Cheers."
