The key to the topic of the revival of Hong Kong films is that after the news about police and gangster films became popular, it attracted endless debates among netizens and the media.
The heat immediately rose.
In fact, many people have seen the opportunity.
Chen Keming is no exception, but Chen Keming is different from others in that he really wants to take action.
The topic of the revival of Hong Kong films has become hot again because of Li Yi's intervention. In everyone's opinion, the popularity and traffic are all prepared for "Infernal Affairs".
But Chen Keming felt, why couldn't it be prepared for him?
I can be in a police movie, I can do it!
And the key is that this road has been paved by someone. As a veteran director, Chen Keming certainly knows that if a movie wants to be a hit, the first thing to look at is not the quality of the movie, but whether the promotion and distribution are done well.
The aroma of wine is also afraid of the deep alley!
Another one is emotion.
Old Hong Kong movies and police and gangster movies can all sell emotions, and he is familiar with this!
Although it can often only defraud a little of the box office, that's because it's not outstanding enough.
But this time is different. The topic of the revival of Hong Kong films created by Li Yi suddenly became different because of his status. This topic seems to have been heated up by many media and movie fans.
Not to mention, there are many Hong Kong filmmakers waving the flag this time.
This is definitely a good opportunity!
It's just a pity that we don't have a police movie project on hand. Otherwise, if we can get the first bite of dividends when this topic is the hottest, even a bad movie can sell a lot of box office.
However, if you don’t have a project in hand, you can definitely find a project now, or start a project yourself. As long as it is released before Li Yi’s "Infernal Affairs", you can definitely reap this wave of dividends before Li Yi.
Especially after the launch of the "Infernal Affairs" project, Hong Kong movies have revived, and police and gangster movies are the future of Hong Kong movies. Wait, wait, etc., it can be said that it is boiling like a raging fire.
Not to mention Chen Keming, many people find it difficult to think about it.
However, Li Yi's wool is not so easy to harvest, and where can he find ready-made projects for a while?
Chen Keming quickly made a calculation.
Speaking of which, thanks to the golden age of Hong Kong films, the speed of filming is incredibly fast.
Chen Keming came from that era, so he naturally has this ability. Of course, he also understands that times have changed. Now, although it is possible to make a movie in a short time, it is difficult to say about the quality.
Already.
But this time, he doesn't need it!
But if you want to take advantage of this opportunity to reap this bonus, you can't just make a Hong Kong police and gangster movie.
Chen Keming immediately found his partner, Zheng Chuan.
The two are considered old partners who have worked together for many years.
Chen Keming is in charge of the front desk and Zheng Chuan is in charge of the behind the scenes. The two complement each other very well.
"It would be a shame not to take advantage of the dividends from this wave of police and gangster movies!" Chen Keming said.
Zheng Chuan frowned and said, "You want to steal Li Yi's wool?"
Chen Keming said indifferently: "What's the problem?"
Zheng Chuan shook his head and said: "This popularity is created by Li Yi's influence and appeal. It is meaningless to just plunder the wool and make a random police movie."
Chen Keming nodded and said, "I know this too, so didn't I come to discuss this with you?"
Of course Chen Keming also knows that there is no point in making a police movie casually under the banner of reviving Hong Kong movies, because there is a certain degree of popularity that not just anyone can take advantage of.
Although Chen Keming is a veteran, the effect will not be that good if he simply rides on the popularity.
"If we really do it, the investment cost may be a bit high and the risk will be greater." Zheng Chuan frowned slightly.
"Of course I know this, but high risks come with rewards, and I think the risks of good operations are actually not that big." Chen Keming said with a smile.
"What do you want to do?" Zheng Chuan asked suspiciously, because he knew Chen Keming's old partner very well. He really didn't start early without profit. As long as he could make money, he didn't know what face meant.
"Although Li Yi is the number one director, no one in the directing circle can compete with him, but what if we ask Cheng Hu to cooperate?" Chen Keming asked with a smile.
"Cheng Hu? But do you think Cheng Hu would be willing to wade into this muddy water?" Zheng Chuan asked doubtfully.
"Hey, all the hustle and bustle is for profit. He, Cheng Hu, is not a good man or woman, and this time, both parties will benefit. He, Cheng Hu, has a great reputation, but he is old and can't fight anymore. In recent years, Cheng Hu
Hu’s movies haven’t caused any big commotion, will he be willing to do so?”
"Besides, the revival of Hong Kong films is the mission of all Hong Kong filmmakers. Everyone is responsible. Doesn't Cheng Hu want to be the person who fired the first shot at the revival of Hong Kong films? Don't forget, Cheng Hu has a
The entire series of police hero movies, including Hong Kong police and gangster movies, will definitely not be able to avoid him!"
"But even if Cheng Hu agrees to cooperate, there won't be enough time!" Zheng Chuan shook his head.
"Hey, who said that? Hong Kong films were so popular back then. What did they rely on? A large number of films were produced? And how could a large number of films be produced in such a short period of time? Isn't it because,
We also had a well-known speed in Hong Kong movies back then!"
"Li Yi can say that Hong Kong police and gangster films are the key to the revival of Hong Kong films, so why can't we say that to restore the glory of Hong Kong films, we must also restore the speed of Hong Kong films?" Chen Keming became more and more excited as he talked.
"This..." Zheng Chuan didn't know what to say.
Doesn't it sound too outrageous?
But in fact, the key lies in whether this project and this movie can be a big hit. If it can be a big hit, then everything is right!
Because the facts are before our eyes.
But on the other hand, if the movie fails, it will be a shame for Dafa.
"I'm worried now whether that guy Li Yi will do something bad..." Chen Keming said with a frown.
Now it was Zheng Chuan's turn to laugh.
"There is no need to worry about this. If he comes out to speak, that would be a good thing! After all, as you said, the revival of Hong Kong films is the mission of all filmmakers on Hong Kong Island. Li Yi can shout such slogans, why can't we?
?”
"And how can he alone say he can revive Hong Kong films?" Zheng Chuan said with a smile.
"Pah! That's right, look at me, why didn't you think of that!" Chen Keming clapped his hands and said excitedly.
"But there is another question, where is the script?" Zheng Chuan asked.
"Hehe, what I was about to say, you see, the cast of Li Yi's "Infernal Affairs" is indeed very strong, but it is impossible for one movie to include all the Hong Kong stars, especially the screenwriters. We can definitely find our Hong Kong
The island’s top screenwriters will come together to write the script.”
"Besides, there are a lot of people who don't like Li Yi... They are all candidates to win over, right?" Chen Keming had obviously already thought about this.
