Chapter 697: Encountering a child-seeker on the street
What Li Yi said was from the bottom of his heart.
After these words of Li Yi were reported by the media without any change.
It has also been recognized by countless netizens, and has also been praised by Hong Kong filmmakers.
No one else, because everything Li Yi told was the truth.
This era is indeed the best era for Hong Kong films to hope for a revival.
Because everyone has not completely forgotten about Hong Kong movies and their feelings.
It's just that this feeling is time-limited and limited.
"What I said is true. Now we still watch old Hong Kong movies and lament that Hong Kong movies are really bad. But in the future, our next generation will not grow up watching Hong Kong movies. Naturally, they will
I don’t have that feeling anymore.”
"The truth is actually very simple, but why don't those people understand it?"
"Our request is also very simple. We just need to be sincere. We don't ask for movies like "Dark War" and "Infernal Affairs", but we have to make something new, right? If it remains the same, then we might as well watch it.
In old Hong Kong movies, weren’t the heroes and goddesses at that time more beautiful than they are now?”
The box office of "Dark War" continues to soar.
In just over two weeks, the box office of "Dark War" has already surpassed "Infernal Affairs"!
Of course, high box office does not mean that the movie is better, but it is caused by many reasons.
The romance and warmth of "Dark War" obviously make the audience's movie-watching experience better than the obscure despair of "Infernal Affairs".
At the same time, because of the timing of the appearance of "Dark War" and its appeal to female audiences, the box office of "Dark War" was higher than that of "Infernal Affairs"!
The two films will inevitably be compared.
These are the same factors that boosted the box office of "Dark War".
However, "Dark War" is already a thing of the past for Li Yi.
For Xingman, Li Yi previously gave two scripts related to "Nezha". While Li Yi was busy making movies, the scripts for the two movies about "Nezha" were produced in one, two and three drafts.
After revising the draft several times, Li Yi finally decided that Xingman's next movie would be "Nezha Hao Hai".
Because compared to the other film "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World", Li Yi actually prefers the plot of "Nezha: The Devil Boy".
However, Li Yi did not intervene in the subsequent production.
Apart from the plot, Li Yineng didn't give much advice on "Where's the Sea", because the original movie was a hand-drawn animated film, and the version of "Where's the Sea" that Star Comics is going to produce must be similar to
A 3D animated movie like "The Return of the Great Sage".
...
In Ludao, Fujian Province, Li Yi and Mu Qing were holding hands. Mu Qing was holding a bunch of takoyaki in her hand, and Li Yi was a little helpless. Although he bought snacks as long as he finished them along the way, Mu Qing basically just tasted them.
After tasting it, the rest went into Li Yi's stomach.
"What, why don't you eat it? I really can't eat anymore." Li Yi said helplessly.
"I'm going to gain weight easily, so why don't you eat it?" Mu Qing looked like a little girl, then reached out and handed the octopus barbecue skewers to Li Yi's mouth.
Li Yi had no choice but to accept Mu Dao's advice.
"Hey, there are a lot of people queuing up over there, let's go over there and take a look." Suddenly, Mu Qing found many people queuing up to buy things not far in front, and her eyes lit up as she said.
Li Yi suddenly became Spartan.
"I really can't eat anymore." Li Yi said with a dumbfounded expression.
"Just go and have a look." Mu Qing took Li Yi's hand and headed towards the long queue.
While queuing up, Li Yi and the others also figured out why so many people were queuing up here.
This is a snack stall selling fried oysters. The reason why so many people queue up is because this snack stall is called Xunzi Snacks.
The entire dining cart is covered with posters with information about finding a child.
There is also a huge line of words written on the top: "Reward of 200,000 for a son"! Next to it is a photo of a little boy.
It was finally Li Yi's turn.
"Have some fried oysters!" Li Yi said.
The stall owner is a middle-aged man. He is very clean, but his eyes are full of vicissitudes of life. As Li Yi talks, he naturally looks at the missing person notice posted on the dining car.
Then I realized that the stall owner’s son had been missing for thirteen years.
While waiting, Mu Qing couldn't help but ask.
The stall owner's name is Sun Bin, and his son's name is Sun Ping'an. He fry the oysters skillfully while talking about it.
Thirteen years ago, the stall owner was not in the snack business, but ran an Internet cafe.
However, after the only son was lost and the search failed for a long time, his wife became depressed and passed away soon after.
Before he died, he still held the stall owner's hand and told him to find his son.
The stall owner then closed the Internet cafe and began a thirteen-year search for his son.
At first, he gave up his livelihood and started looking for his son everywhere. However, it would cost a lot of money to search for his son all over the country every year.
His family's wealth has been completely depleted due to his wife's illness and the expenses incurred on finding his son.
In desperation, he started to look for his son and earn living expenses, so his mobile food truck became his choice.
He took this dining cart and searched for his son while setting up a stall and handing out missing person notices to customers.
As long as the customer is willing to accept the missing person notice, he will give the customer a discount.
In this way, he got through it all the way. Thirteen years later, he had made dozens of types of snacks and had perfected his skills. But what made him most sad and desperate was that there was still no news about his son.
The emotional Mu Qing's eyes were already red.
Li Yi also sighed in his heart.
But a movie with the theme of searching for a son came to mind.
It is somewhat similar to Sun Bin's experience. He searched all over the country and finally found his son after going through hardships.
Sun Bin still got a missing person notice for Li Yi.
After leaving, Mu Qing's eyes were still red.
"Do you think he can find his son?" Mu Qing looked at Li Yi and asked.
"I hope it can!" Li Yi wanted to say yes, it must be possible, but he knew that it had been thirteen years, and he had not found it for thirteen years. Unless there was a miracle, otherwise...
In this regard in China, especially in the early years when the Internet was not so developed, there were too many cases of child abduction and trafficking.
Moreover, most people never find their lost children.
Of course, there are not many people like Sun Bin who have been looking for him for more than ten years.
"Do you think there is any way to help them?" Mu Qing looked at Li Yi and asked.
"What do you think of making his story into a movie? Let more people know about him and let more people help them!" Li Yi said.
Mu Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Is this okay? Will he accept it?" Mu Qing asked.
"You'll know after you try it," Li Yi said.
After returning, that night, Li Yi called Sun Bin according to the phone number on the missing person notice.
