Chapter 461 It’s so hard to accept. It’s so hard to accept!
June 6, Dragon Boat Festival.

With a certain cinema tycoon being involved and promoting Infernal Affairs, the crew also had a day off on the Dragon Boat Festival. Wang Chengguang also booked Jumbo Seafood Restaurant in advance in the evening. Anyone who is interested can come to the seafood restaurant alone or with their families for a buffet dinner.

This is equivalent to holding a celebration party in advance.

Whether it is the actors or the people behind the scenes, they are all treated the same.

Time passed, and when evening fell, when Deputy Director Li, Teacher Guo and others were at a pier in Wan Chai to welcome the team who came for dinner, Wang Chengguang's cell phone rang.

After he answered the call, he heard Huang Yimei's laughter. "Director, thank you very much for giving me and my brother the opportunity to become rich and famous. My dad also came to Hong Kong from Beijing today. He said he wanted to find an opportunity to toast you a few glasses to express his gratitude. I wonder if you are free tonight?"

This wasn't a special thank you to anyone, it was just a rumor that "Huang Yimei was able to get into the crew as the female lead because of the unspoken exploits of director Lao Wang" was flying around.

Mr. Huang couldn't sit still anymore.

Wang Chengguang smiled and said, "I will also be there in the evening, just have a few drinks whenever you like."

After a few simple polite remarks and hanging up the phone, his eyes lit up again. He had already dragged Huang Zhenhua and Huang Yimei into the water. It seemed that Old Huang could also join the crew.

Huang Yimei's father, Huang Jianzhi, is a professor of physics at National Tsing Hua University in his 50s. What can he play? As long as there is a ghost soldier to possess the performance, you can play whoever you want, without worrying about the performance being bad.

The script for the second part of Infernal Affairs was completed long ago, and it is basically the same as the original, except that the ending will be the same as the first one, with a few dozen seconds more of people visiting graves and burning incense, and chatting about how good people will be reincarnated as rich kids, and villains and scum will go to hell.

As for the actors who played the younger versions of Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming? No need, absolutely no need. Ling Jing, who played Chen Yongren from the first film, was made up to look older. You have to believe that even in a world without spirits, the makeup technology in 2001 was already amazing.

When filming the second part, you just need to put on makeup and act younger, so that the faces of the protagonists of the first and second parts can reflect the ten-year age difference.

This is the case with Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming. The only missing villain in the second part is Ni Yongxiao, the second generation of Ni Shi.

Huang Yimei's father Huang Jianzhi is 50 years old? Not a big problem, Ni Kun played a cameo role, and died as soon as he appeared, and then the Hurricane Rescue series began, which tells the story of a retired old man saving his daughter.

It just so happened that Professor Huang and Huang Yimei could perform together.

"This old Huang is also very handsome, and he also has the gentle and elegant temperament of a professor from National Tsing Hua University. He only needs to be a little bit possessed by the ghost to bring the retired father in Taken to life, and create an action genre or something."

When Huang Jianzhi was around 30 years old, his appearance was much better than Huang Zhenhua, and at this stage he also looks like a graceful old grandfather.

Taken tells the story of a retired Flying Tiger who works with his friends to act as bodyguards for wealthy people or big stars and organize various activities. His daughter and her classmates went on a trip to Paris and were tricked by a local gang.

Let Huang Yimei play a beautiful daughter who is not easy to worry about. The handheld sports photography is well done, and the action and various gun battles are standard. It is a representative action movie of the global film and television industry.

Wang Chengguang thought about it, turned around and went back to the struggle plane to pull Nancy and Zhou Wenwen over. After all, Nancy and Zhou Wenwen had gone through the martial arts experimental training class and the Conferred God experimental training with him, and at this stage, they had already practiced the three martial arts to the divine level.

He is also the river god of South Korea’s Han River and China’s Grand Canal!

During the time they become gods, they use their divine powers to understand and learn all kinds of hobbies and interests, which is much more powerful than having a photographic memory.

When he and the two girls arrived at the canal section in Rose's story plane, he smiled and asked, "Can you still sense the divine power now?"

Zhou Wenwen shook her head. "The divine power stored in my body can still be used to perform divine arts, but I can't feel the source of divine power here, and the reserve will be gone once it is used up. Fortunately, I still have a foundation in martial arts."

"As for being a director and making movies, it's also quite fun. I've learned about it before, and now I can adapt to it after a little familiarity."

Wang Chengguang snapped his fingers and arranged a new identity for the two girls. They were both his junior and classmates in the directing department of the Beijing Film Academy. There had been no traces of their existence here before, but now there were, perfectly implanted in the memories of a group of people.

Nancy was born in Seoul, South Korea. She has a background as a princess of a declining conglomerate, which makes it convenient for her to use South Korea's film industry to make special effects movies when needed.

Although Wang Chengguang does not need any computer special effects when making movies and can actually shoot any scene, but in the spiritless plane, if you want to shoot a Chinese version of The Wandering Earth, there must be a production base for that kind of film and television special effects, right?
Hong Kong Island has special effects, and the quality is pretty good, and South Korea also has them.

He brought Nancy here to arrange the South Korean background and the movie special effects base.

"Okay, come with me tonight to attend the early celebration party, and then follow me as an assistant director for a while. The scheduled hurricane rescue series will be handed over to you for filming."

It's very chaotic over in Paris. Zhou Wenwen and Nancy, who have three divine-level martial arts, may not be able to withstand the sudden attack from AK, but with Wang Chengguang's Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivation, it is no problem for him to be aware of the whole world at all times.

He is going to make a series of classic movies that are linked together and promote the concept of the underworld universe, and he really needs a few helpers to promote it.

This is what happens at the end of the film, when no one of the decent characters dies, and everyone goes to the grave of the villain to complain and chat. Even if scum like you die a violent death in the human world, you will still go to hell and be punished for your sins after death, even if you are a foreigner or a white person.

In order to save his daughter, the old man Hurricane killed many people along the way. His killing violated human laws, but it was a fight against crime and evil, and it was a just killing.

The Easter eggs of the underworld are radiating to Paris.

He has not yet established a film and television company. He and Huang Yimei, Huang Zhenhua, Ling Jing and others have signed unit contracts. For example, starting with Infernal Affairs, they will shoot at least ten films led and designated by Wang Chengguang in the next few years.

The remuneration for each film will change with the market price, and will not be lower than 70% of the mainstream market price when the outside world invites them to be the protagonists.

…………

The night passed by in a flash.

Wang Chengguang walked out of the hotel in the morning light. Nancy and Zhou Wenwen had replaced the assistant director who had worked there for two months and became the assistant girls.

The appearance of the two beauties surprised some people, but someone also greeted them familiarly. It was Teacher Guo... Teacher Guo also had a deep "memory" of the two women, just as when he looked at Wang Chengguang, he felt that he should go to the acting department.

These two are also the most handsome actors in the acting department.

Teacher Guo greeted and chatted very skillfully.

When the crowd arrived outside the hotel and were about to leave for the filming site, Wang Chengguang saw Huang Jianzhi, who was looking a little confused and walking with Huang Yimei and Huang Zhenhua. He smiled and said, "Professor Huang, are you still used to the environment in Hong Kong Island? We talked about this last night. We hope you and Yimei can play the role of father and daughter in the new play. I hope you will seriously consider it."

"When you sign the contract, you will also be paid 20 yuan. You will be paid yuan as a deposit. The crew will provide you with food and accommodation. This is also a good challenge for you. You can experience a new life."

"Zhenhua still plays the leading role in the second part of Infernal Affairs, but Yimei doesn't have a role anymore."

Huang Jianzhi had a face full of questions like who am I, where am I, and what am I doing, but he still smiled quickly and said, "Thank you, Director Wang. I will seriously consider it."

While talking, Professor Huang stared at Nancy and Zhou Wenwen for a few times, and his mentality became more relaxed. Yes, he was stimulated by the scandals and gossips that swept the Internet nationwide and came to see his daughter. He wanted to know whether his daughter had been sexually exploited.

As a result, they went to the celebration banquet of Jumbo Seafood Restaurant and had a drink together. Wang Chengguang then invited him to participate in the new film project, with a salary of 20 yuan as the male lead, the same as that of his eldest son.

Or is it an action-packed drama about an old father saving his daughter, flying from Asia to Europe to rescue her, and madly slaughtering gang members? !

Huang Jianzhi felt that this was too much of a joke as he was already in his 50s.

He stated on the spot that he didn't have the acting skills to act in action scenes and become an action star? He also didn't have the body for it, but Wang Chengguang said last night that as long as he was willing to participate in a special training program, he would be able to easily keep up with both acting and action skills.

If you don’t believe me, ask Huang Zhenhua. He is your own son and he won’t harm you!
Huang Zhenhua was dumbfounded, and then nodded affirmatively. After all, he had been possessed by multiple ghost soldiers in turn for two months. After the long-term experience, he felt very novel and relaxed. How to say it, this kind of ghost soldier really will not harm your body and soul, but can give you sharing and empathy for many things.

For example, a certain Yinbing teacher is an expert doctor in Hong Kong Island in the dimension of Shrouding the Sky... Empathy and Sharing Cantonese means that he can master a dialect in a few days, and go from being a medical layman to an expert in a certain field in just over ten days.

Not only did he gain experience in practicing medicine and performing surgeries, he also learned a lot about local affairs in Hong Kong Island. He easily transformed from an outsider who came to Hong Kong for the first time to someone who was as good as a local.

There was also a Yin soldier who was a cultivator in the "Zhe Tian". He died at the Shenqiao realm, but he did allow Huang Zhenhua to understand what it means to turn into a rainbow and fly up to the sky and into the sea.

This is similar to Xiao Yan's personal grandfather, or a group of grandfathers.

The ghost soldiers can use Huang Zhenhua's body to experience the feeling of fullness, the taste of sour, sweet, bitter and spicy food, etc.

He and a group of teachers became good friends, bad friends, etc. There were also old drivers who urged him to hang out in the prostitute circle and go to nightclubs to pick up girls when he was off duty, but Huang Zhenhua firmly rejected them again and again.

He doesn't mind sharing delicious food and drinks.

He definitely can’t pick up girls at nightclubs, he doesn’t want to be watched by several teachers! !

So Huang Zhenhua definitely told his father that special training in acting would greatly improve his efficiency, and his father wanted to give it a try, and he would definitely be able to play the leading actor. Then he urged Huang Yimei many times to study hard and not to take shortcuts like him.

Even if Huang Yimei wants special training, the teachers she meets are all female...so she shouldn't participate in the special training.

Wang Chengguang smiled again, "Nancy and Wenwen are my classmates and junior schoolmates in the directing department of Beijing Film Academy. Now they are here to be assistants. They will be the directors of the next action blockbuster, which will be filmed in Hong Kong Island and Paris. They are not much older than Yimei, so it's not bad to be friends with them."

Huang Jianzhi was overjoyed and said, "Thank you Director Wang for your support. It's settled then. You and the crew are not afraid of me wasting time and efficiency, and you still give me so much money. Then I will join the new crew."

Lao Huang is a professor at Tsinghua University, and a professor of physics, but he is actually neither poor nor rich. In addition to buying and collecting books, his hobby is growing flowers and plants, just like the original track bought a pot of flowers for 500 yuan.

I could only lie to my wife and tell her that it was 50 yuan a pot.

Huang Yimei seized this opportunity to extort money from Lao Huang for a mobile phone. In 2001, he spent 500 yuan per pot of flowers and plants? And there were at least a dozen pots of flowers of different varieties on the balcony, which was really not poor.

But it’s not about being rich or powerful.

Now Professor Huang is also sure that his daughter has not been sexually exploited! Just as his son and daughter explained, this was a publicity stunt to earn box office revenue. …………

Time flies, early in the morning of July 7th.

Cinemas in Hong Kong Island have started selling tickets for the movie "Infernal Affairs". This movie started in April this year and it took three months to prepare various copies and send them to the cinemas. It will be screened nationwide at 4 o'clock this morning.

Several major cinema chains in Hong Kong Island are working together to promote the film with great fanfare.

Before this, the Internet was full of enthusiasm, and a week ago, various posters were posted on subways, taxis, and cars. Even if the entire movie has no big names or stars, and is full of newcomers in the film and television industry, it has already become a blockbuster that has swept all citizens and working people under the overwhelming publicity.

Wang Chengguang was standing on the rooftop of a commercial building opposite a theater in Tsim Sha Tsui, overlooking the street view, when he heard laughter from behind him. "Congratulations, Director. This is the first time your film has been shown in theaters, right? It will surely be a big success at the box office and in the public eye. We are just waiting for you to hold a celebration party."

This is Huang Yimei, and Zhou Wenwen came with her.

The psychologist Li Xin'er, played by Huang Yimei, does not have many scenes, and they are basically literary roles, and she just plays a vase. Today, the film is being screened across Hong Kong, and the core team of the crew has naturally seen the finished film a long time ago.

The first time this rose saw the finished film, there was no soundtrack yet, but she was so shocked by the finished film that she couldn't take her eyes off it, and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time after finishing it.

She couldn't believe at all that she was actually participating in such a wonderful, high-quality blockbuster, and that she was playing the leading role.

It was even more difficult for me to believe that the brother I had known since childhood would become a villain and boss like Han Chen in the film, with a dark and evil aura that was terrifying.

Not to mention the ending of the film, Chen Yongren, who has been undercover for three years and three years, and is about to die for ten years, dies so suddenly in the elevator. The suddenness and shock are simply unacceptable, but this does not affect Huang Yimei's confirmation from the audience's perspective that this is a wonderful movie.

After all, it is the savior of the Hong Kong film and television industry after its collapse in the original track!!
The release of Infernal Affairs in mainland China is still under review. The mainland version does not have the dozens of seconds of tomb-sweeping chat easter eggs. That’s because Mr. Guo is busy.

Teacher Guo has seen the finished film of the first part and knows that it is a classic commercial blockbuster. He feels that it has a high chance of being a box office hit, so he organized a film screening at the Beijing Film Academy and asked the school leaders to help run the event. It won't be too late for it to be shown in theaters.

Wang Chengguang looked away and smiled, "Thank you for your kind words. Your brother is still the leading role of Han Chen in Infernal Affairs 2. You and Professor Huang can also prepare for the hurricane rescue. How are your fitness and dance studies going recently?"

She doesn't have a big role in Taken, she just plays the role of a pretty and naive daughter.

The daughter's role in Hurricane II is quite exciting, and she contributed a lot of good shots in the sequel to the bad movie.

This was a field she had never tried before, and while studying with Nancy and Zhou Wenwen, Zhou Wenwen boasted with a smile, "Rose has good aptitude and learns quickly. If she can supplement it with something good, she will definitely be super efficient."

"Whether it's there or not, the vase attributes of dealing with Hurricane Rescue One are above passing."

Huang Yimei was curious, "Director, what exactly is the special training model? After my dad used it, his acting skills, how to move in front of the camera, his dialogue skills, and his action and fighting skills all skyrocketed. This training is so effective."

Wang Chengguang laughed, "Your brother and your father didn't tell you, so don't be curious. Just wait to become a celebrity family."

Wait until he turns around and continues to look at the street view.

A large number of people are entering the cinema to buy tickets, waiting for the first show. Just this Friday morning show at 8 o'clock, 70% of the seats are occupied?

It's summer vacation!
There was heavy publicity and promotion, and all kinds of scandals were flying around. Huang Yimei's beautiful photos were killing the Internet. Even after Wang Chengguang lost all his car, house and the compensation money left by his parents in his first movie, he was able to get tens of millions of dollars in investment for his second movie so quickly. It was because he was a gigolo that was rumored to be living off him.

Some of his handsome photos also began to circulate on the Internet.

I don't know how many people commented that with his looks and height, he was just a gigolo and got tens of millions of dollars in investment from a rich woman...it seems like the rich woman didn't lose out!!
But it’s bad enough that you used the rich woman’s money to make a movie, but you also had sex with Huang Yimei?
Your circle is so chaotic that I don't know how many rounds of verbal battles have been set off on the Internet! Amid all the noise and action, too many people are curious about Wang Chengguang's first theatrical movie.

A large number of young people from Hong Kong Island were waiting, complaining and cursing, and they didn't actually go inside to watch the movie until it was almost starting.

After a screening, most of the audience who had cursed Wang Chengguang himself and the unspoken rules walked out of the theater in silence.

As the silent crowd walked on, someone finally started to curse, "Fuck him! Fuck his old man! How could Chen Yongren die like that?"

"Fuck, you show me this after 100 minutes? It's clearly the end, but he died like this? This director is such a jerk, do you know where he lives? I'm going to piss myself on this mainland guy!"

"What a jerk! Is this what you said at the end of the tomb-sweeping ceremony: Chen Yongren, who has been working hard for three years, might be reborn into a wealthy family in his next life?"

……

It's so hard to accept!!
It's so sad. An elite member of the police academy and a representative of aspiring young people had to go undercover before graduation just to crack down on Han Chen's gang. After so many years of hard work, he finally killed Han Chen and his gang was gone.

But he was shot by the undercover gang member assigned by Han Chen to the police force? ? This is so ridiculous. Even when a certain elevator reached the first floor, other police officers said that Liu Jianming's identity as an undercover gang member was exposed and handcuffed him.

But what about Ah Ren? This version of Ah Ren is very handsome. Ling Jing's face is definitely a representative of handsome male stars. He struggled with melancholy for a whole movie, and finally became sunny. The few minutes without sunshine were broken.

The bodies were stuck inside and outside the elevator, and even the elevator door couldn't close. The emotional female audience members all walked out crying.

That kind of regret was too explosive. Even though there were two people with their backs to each other for a few seconds sweeping Chen Yongren's grave, they talked about how he had worked hard for half his life and would definitely be reincarnated as a rich second-generation, and that Han Chen would go to hell even if he died.

But it was just two people with their backs to each other talking without any special effects.

This easter egg made many viewers even more speechless. Many people cursed that instead of having such an ending, it would be better to give Chen Yongren a splendid funeral that only the elite of the police force can enjoy.

This version of Infernal Affairs almost bombarded the hearts of countless audiences as soon as it debuted, against the backdrop of the collapse of the film and television industry for several years.

The box office easily broke 7 million Hong Kong dollars throughout the day on July 26. After all, the film was screened across multiple theaters. No matter how Wang Chengguang got this operating ratio, he got it.

Just like at the beginning, a certain cinema tycoon wanted Lao Wang to bring Huang Yimei to a dinner party, and then held a press conference the next day to ask him to do a handstand in public and do some La Mi Tian Gong or something.

On July 7 and 27, which was both summer vacation and a weekend, the already popular Infernal Affairs movie grossed 28 million and 409 million respectively, which combined with the first day meant more than 411 million in the first weekend.

When the news came out on a new Monday, it was released to the outside world through various newspapers, online forums and news websites. The people of Hong Kong were shocked, and even netizens in the mainland were shocked!
1100 million in the first weekend? ? What era is this? The total box office in the whole mainland exceeded 2000 million, which is definitely the top ten best-selling films. Even in Hong Kong, as long as the performance of breaking 1500 million in the end of the period is over, it will be firmly in the top ten best-selling films of the year.

When Infernal Affairs was all the rage and full of scandals, it grossed 1100 million in its first three days over the weekend!
This is a shocking news in the entertainment industry! It has shocked countless senior filmmakers, famous directors, and even the best actor and actress winners. They couldn't believe it.

On the contrary, on the Hong Kong and Macau Internet, countless netizens spontaneously discussed the movie, including the talent of director Wang Chengguang.

In most forums, netizens discuss the most whether Wang Chengguang is really talented or whether the rich woman who supports him is too reliable and bought a super golden script, so he can perform so well? What's even more outrageous is that the main actors are basically all outsiders and amateurs.

Can you believe that none of Liu Jianming, Huang Zhicheng, and Chen Yongren are from professional schools, and they are all Hong Kong police officers. The villain Han Chen is played by a Beijing architect. A group of workplace elites are mixed in the entertainment industry, and their acting skills are directly regarded as gods? ?
In the end, the Hong Kong and Macau network has basically unanimously determined that the crew of Infernal Affairs, from the director to the actors, are all poisonous! But this does not prevent many netizens from urging everyone to go to the movie together. This is definitely a masterpiece worth buying a ticket to enjoy.

…………

Amidst all the turmoil, on July 7, Wang Chengguang finished a day of filming and returned to a hotel in Hong Kong Island. He saw Teacher Guo walking over with a middle-aged man. Both of them had super bright smiles. "Director Wang, this is President Han. Our Infernal Affairs has passed the review and is waiting for the release date to be determined."

"I didn't expect the film to become such a big hit in Hong Kong Island. President Han flew here..."

Before Mr. Guo finished speaking, President Han extended his hand to shake his, smiling with surprise as he shook hands, "Director Wang is truly a young talent in the film and television industry, and he has become a household name in East Asia. However, have you already started filming the second season of Infernal Affairs?"

The first film has been released for a few days, and the first weekend has passed. The second film has already started, and if it is completed quickly, it may even be released before the end of the summer vacation.

Wang Chengguang laughed and said, "The script was originally finalized together, so after filming one part, the original crew continued to film. Although we couldn't make it in time for the summer vacation, we could still make it during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day. Overall, it went smoothly."

For the role of Ni Yongxiao, he finally invited Bai Erru, the father of Bai Xiaohe in the story of Rose. He is a wealthy capitalist who lives in a big villa and buys and collects antiques. In the original storyline, he supported Huang Zhenhua to start a business in real estate in the late 21s...

Now in his early 40s, Bai Erru is not only a business tycoon, but also has good looks and temperament. The Ni Yongxiao he plays will definitely be a little different from the original version.

But the acting skills required are not afraid of anything as long as the Yinbing teacher is good. Why is Bai Erru willing to play the role? Just give him an antique painting and whet his appetite, and everything will go smoothly.

In this sequel, Huang Zhenhua's pay increased to 50, and the three related Ling Jing and Fang Keming's pay increased to 80!
Sister Mary, who played Han Chen's girlfriend and was instigated by Huang Zhicheng to kill Ni Kun, was played by Jiang Xueqiong. Originally, in July 2001, Huang Yimei had just run away from the Institute of Architecture and applied to join Jiang Xueqiong's Qingting Group as assistant to the general manager.

Qingting is a group that hosts art exhibitions, such as antique calligraphy and painting exhibitions and charity art exhibitions. Any antique calligraphy or painting can be negotiated.

The second part of Infernal Affairs went really smoothly. We started shooting in mid-July and it took about ten days. We estimate that it will be finished by the end of August and go online in early September.

President Han of China Film Group opened his mouth to speak, but after more than ten seconds he said with emotion, "Director Wang is truly a great and famous director, extraordinary. Can I see the script? The schedule for Infernal Affairs in mainland China is waiting for your confirmation before scheduling it. The second part will definitely be greenlit as well."

The film and television circles in Greater China were in mourning during this cold winter. The emergence of a quick shooter like Wang Chengguang was truly astonishing.

The box office took in over 1100 million in the first weekend and received good reviews online, which made it worth his quick visit as the vice president and CEO.

…………

A few hours later, after having a meal and reading the script of Infernal Affairs 2, President Han suddenly took another sip of tea and asked in surprise, "Director Wang, your debut film has not been approved by the theaters and has not received good reviews from the industry. Can I see it?"

“Is it because your thinking and artistic talent are too advanced that people can’t understand it?”

Mr. Guo, who was smoking, was dumbfounded. That's right, although it's too absurd to have twelve main plots in a movie, it's also too absurd to use more than a dozen newcomers to cultivate...

But as evidenced by the successive releases of Infernal Affairs Part I and Part II, could it be that viewers or judges like him are too superficial? Can’t understand true art? ?
Huang Jianzhi and his daughter Huang Yimei, who were also at the table, were stunned. Huang Yimei then nodded affirmatively, "This is definitely not a poor performance by the director. It is definitely a poor reviewer. Infernal Affairs and the upcoming Hurricane Rescue are proof of this."

Huang Jianzhi, who had already experienced the ghost possession for a month, raised his glass and said, "Director Wang, we definitely believe you! It's just that the reviewer's vision is too superficial!"
