Chapter 1,209 The Taste of Feelings

Li Yi wants to make a new film, and this news will definitely not be hidden.

Sometimes he loses quickly, and sometimes he is slow.

But compared to other directors, Li Yi has always been a fast gunner.

And this time many people are looking forward to it, especially Hong Kong movie fans and those old Hong Kong movie fans can be said to be the ones they look forward to the most.

"I don't know if Li Yi can shoot it. Although there are still many people under the name of old Hong Kong films, in fact, I still feel that it lacks a little taste."

"Who said no? What is missing? In fact, it's the smell of the world. This is probably unique to modern Hong Kong Island?"

"There is no way. Looking at the whole world, the history of Hong Kong Island is also very special, and the social environment is the same."

"Although Hong Kong Island is getting better and better in the real world, at least not as chaotic as it was back then, from the perspective of film and culture, Hong Kong Island has lost that flavor."

"The so-called heroes come from troubled times. In that year, Hong Kong Island is actually another kind of troubled times? So the Hong Kong films of that era have a unique flavor of the long journey of the world, with a bright rhythm, a loyalty in the world, young and dandy, clubs, etc. Although these are all cancer-like existences in the era of peace and in this era of peace, they are unique from the perspective of movies. If anyone else can make the original flavor of old Hong Kong films, perhaps only Li Yi will be."

"Can it be a movie like "The Thief of Time" again?"

"It shouldn't be that Li Yike of "The Thief of Time" did not use the banner of an old Hong Kong film, but just said that the past of Hong Kong was filmed."

In fact, in this era, the influence of old Hong Kong films is still there, because many people who grew up in that era can be said to have the most contacts with those old Hong Kong films.

For them, this is definitely an indelible feeling.

For Hong Kong Island fans, they naturally look forward to it more.

In fact, the living conditions today, in all aspects, can be said to be far superior to that era for ordinary citizens. However, at that time, Hong Kong Island was always special. Although its living standards and economic levels were far inferior to those of the present, no matter how they were, they were unique. Whether it was the status of the city or other aspects, it can be said that they were among the few proud existences of Hong Kong Islanders.

Nowadays, although Hong Kong movies have not died, they have long been no longer the mainstream of Chinese-language films. For this reason, they naturally miss Hong Kong movies of that era more.

However, few directors can make movies that taste like that again.

Because for those old Hong Kong filmmakers, they had to compromise with the market, and the focus naturally began to focus on the entire Chinese-language film market, not just Hong Kong.

In fact, many people will try to downplay the influence of Hong Kong Island.

This is why, most of the time, even Hong Kong movies, few people can make the original and old flavor.

The audience is different.

But for Li Yi, it's different.

First of all, his identity is different. For Hong Kong people, he is the pride of the only remaining Hong Kong movies.

Secondly, his own abilities are there, and with Li Yi's movies, he doesn't care about the box office. As long as he puts his name on, he basically doesn't need to worry. Even rural films can create miracles, let alone other things.

......

The preparations for "Alang's Story" can be said to be the easiest.

Of course, this is easy to say that although this movie is a story that happened in the last century, in fact, the location of the filming does not require too many changes.

Because some places where the story takes place are in the style of the 1980s and 1990s, such buildings are still preserved even in this era.

I have to say that this is also a feature of Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island is developing very fast and its pace of life is also fast, but the same gap between the rich and the poor is getting bigger and bigger.

The kind of house I lived in twenty or thirty years ago still has many people living in it even now.

Of course, some necessary changes are still needed.

For example, some things from that era, big-butt TVs, etc.

The key is that this time I was filming a Hong Kong film, so it is really not too easy for Li Yi’s team.

Coupled with Li Yi's fame and status, he almost always had a green light when filming, and Hong Kong Island gave the greatest convenience in all aspects.

If you are other directors, you may shoot a movie or block a road. The relevant departments of the Hong Kong government still need to consider it, but Li Yi's movies will almost always be passed as long as the impact is not particularly large.

As for the actors of the movie "A Lang's Story", Li Yi actually has many choices, especially the actresses, but from another perspective, he doesn't have many choices.

Although many actors can be said to be competent in the role of the heroine, it is not so easy to perform the taste of the rich girl from Hong Kong Island in that era.

This is completely different from the rich girl in "The Thief of Time".

Although Fangfei in "The Thief of Time" is also a lady from a noble family, she is a lady from a noble family who has not been in society.

But Bobo in "A Lang's Story" is a rich girl who has just begun to leave society.

The two seem to be different, but in fact they are very different.

At the same time, the Bobo in "Alang's Story" spans more than ten years, and he has changed from a girl to a mature woman.

Such characters, different eras, require different styles and flavors.

Therefore, in terms of actresses, she finally found a Hong Kong actress Xiao Hong who is still active in the film industry.

On the other hand, Chen Weijie has also made a lot of preparations to play the role of Alang well.

He and the young actor who plays his son Bozai, Binzai, have been almost like father and son in the past month. The key is that in order to perform the taste of Alang, Chen Weijie also experienced being a truck driver during this period.

The place where I live is also an old apartment found by the crew.

There is no way, it is very important for actors to adapt to these films and TV shows that shooting time-honored films and television works are very important for actors.

Although Chen Weijie also came from that era, after all, time has changed, and Chen Weijie has rarely experienced such a life in recent years.

Not only that, when they saw Chen Weijie, the people who knew him were all surprised.

The handsome short hair turned into medium-length hair like a pot cover, and the temperament of the whole person has also changed a lot.

Simply put, it becomes extremely greasy.

Although the whole film contains Alang ten years ago, it shows more of Alang ten years later. At that time, Alang is no longer as young as he used to be.

This is actually why Li Yi usually likes to work with old actors.

Because the old actors are really easy to deal with and worry.
