Chapter 506 The idea of ​​a new movie—word of mouth and box office go hand in hand

"League of Assassins" has been released for some time...

Zhou Shaoming is thinking about what kind of film he will shoot next.

Want reputation.

Movies such as "The Pursuit of Happyness", "Untouchable", and "The Cove" have gained very good reputations.

Ask for the box office.

Movies such as "Assassins" and "I Am Legend" have brought in countless dollars.

But in the final analysis, Zhou Shaoming really doesn't have a movie that has a particularly good reputation or a particularly good box office.

There is no movement in the system.

It seems like you have to think about your next movie.

Good reputation.

The box office is good.

Zhou Shaoming really didn't have a clue for a while.

After all, generally speaking, movies with a good reputation are those with a literary and artistic bent, such as "A Beautiful Mind", "Untouchables" and other movies.

The ones that do well at the box office are generally action, science fiction and other super blockbusters, popcorn movies with hot and exciting scenes, such as "The Assassin's League", "The Lord of the Rings" and so on.

It needs both good box office and good reputation.

Defined as action class, then the quality is very good.

Suddenly, a movie appeared in my mind.

That is "Infernal Affairs".

It's a very good movie with a great reputation. It can even be said to have saved Hong Kong movies.

Although the box office was not very good.

But if Zhou Shaoming wanted to, he could also make this movie very popular.

We have worked hard on creating the atmosphere and shooting scenes of this movie, but the exquisite foreshadowing, ideas, rhythm, etc. have not changed.

Then "Infernal Affairs" will definitely become a very popular and well-known movie.

It's a pity that "Infernal Affairs" has already been filmed.

Chen Yang's eyes paused.

Now that I think of "Infernal Affairs", naturally there are more movies in my mind, and my thinking has also broadened.

Hong Kong movies are a good choice.

Hong Kong movies, especially gangster and cop-type movies, are so good.

There are a series of good movies such as "Dark War", "A Better Tomorrow", "Bloody Heroes", "Infernal Affairs", "Black Gold", etc.

However, most of these good movies were shot in the 1980s, the golden age of Hong Kong movies, and they are definitely not available now.

And in the Hong Kong movie shot later in 2004.

What's the best thing?

Zhou Shaoming was thinking while smoking a cigar.

The names of Tony Leung Ka Fai, Nick Cheung Ka Fai, Lau Ching Wan, and Tony Leung Chiu Wai were spinning crazily in my mind.

These four people can be said to have the best acting skills among Hong Kong actors, and they were also some of Zhou Shaoming's favorite actors in his previous life.

"Detective"!

right!

It's "Detective".

Zhou Shaoming was excited all of a sudden. This movie is so good and it is also one of Zhou Shaoming's favorite movies.

There are not many movies that have given Zhou Shaoming a big shock. Apart from the shocking scenes, let’s just talk about the plot.

The most shocking movies are "Shutter Island", "Id", "The Detective", "The Master Key" and "The Prestige".

And these movies all have one thing in common.

That's an unexpected ending.

"Detective" is the only Chinese-language film among these films.

This movie is really great.

Zhou Shaoming is still a little excited when he thinks about it now, and he can still vaguely remember various scenes in which he searched for information on the Internet after watching this movie in his previous life.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shaoming was so excited that he quickly found the system to search for information about this movie.

The first is about the plot of "Detective".

Inspector He Jia'an of the Crime Unit was ordered to investigate the case for many months without any progress. He Jia'an decided to ask his old boss, retired Chen Guibin, for advice.

Chen Guibin is a genius in solving crimes and has never failed to solve a case. Many years ago, he cut off one of his ears and gave it to a retired police superintendent. He was considered mentally ill and was dismissed from his job.

Chen Guibin and his wife had been living a secluded life. He Jiaan appeared and allowed Chen Guibin to use his talents. His sleeping heart became passionate, but his wife understood that the world would only treat her husband as a lunatic.

However, it turns out that the so-called wife was actually a figment of Chen Guibin's wishful thinking.

When Chen Guibin first came into contact with Gao Zhiwei, he determined that Wang Guozhu had been killed and Gao Zhiwei was the murderer, but the motive for the murder remained to be investigated.

He Jia'an questioned Chen Guibin's judgment. Chen Guibin said that he had the ability to "see" the dark side of people's hearts, and he could also see people's "lost personality" due to mistakes.

Chen Guibin's method of handling cases is unique.

For example, he would return to the scene of the crime and play the role of the murderer and the victim to feel the mentality of the two, with the intention of finding out the motive. In the process, he would continue to break the rules and regulations, and He Jia An would cause a lot of trouble. In the end, He Jia An would be taken away without saying a word.

Under investigation.

Chen Guibin finally discovered the truth in the woods that day, which was that Gao Zhiwei lost his gun while performing a mission. His "ignorance" blindly grabbed Wang Guozhu's gun in panic. During the conflict, his "cruelty" killed Wang Guozhu.

With different levels of "greed", he used Wang Guozhu's gun to rob and kill.

Just when Chen Guibin excitedly informed He Jia'an of the results, he actually saw He Jia'an's "weakness". He Jia'an's confidence in Chen Guibin had been shaken, and he turned to Gao Zhiwei, believing in his "hypocrisy."

Chen Guibin knew that Gao Zhiwei's "cruelty" would definitely kill Ho Jia'an, so he chose to risk his life to save Ho Jia'an and prove who the real murderer was.

However, the ending is astonishing. The seemingly weak He Jia'an hides another personality. It turns out that everything is just He Jia'an's means!

The plot of the whole movie can be said to be simple, that is, Gao Zhiwei is the bad guy and the detective is the good guy.

However, this movie has too much flavor and foreshadowing.

At the end, He Jiaan's demonic surname was revealed, which shocked many people.

Even the gun change at the end set off a decryption frenzy on the Internet.

Chen Yang has his own opinions on his understanding of this movie.

The detective does not have extraordinary intelligence or a sharp brain.

The reason why he is a detective is all due to his eyes with special functions, which can see people's inner demons. His eyes can see very accurately, and he never misses a sight, so that when his old boss retired without any inner demons in his life,

He admired and gave the ear to him.

The detective also has many inner demons, and the wife he sees is one of them. In his mind, his wife is so perfect, caring about him in every way, and being gentle and considerate to him.

His wife in reality was exactly the opposite of the wife in his mind. In the name of caring about his condition, she was actually asking him how to solve the case. So when he saw his wife in reality, he didn't recognize her. It's not difficult to understand.

.

After burying the good policeman alive, he saw the bad policeman looking for a way in the woods. This was also caused by his own inner demons. In the end, when the detective pointed the gun at the bad policeman, he said: "Put down the gun, and you will shoot."

No different from anyone else."

Then he said: "I am also a human being, why should I be different from other people?" Then he fired. The two sentences here show that he was talking to his own inner demons.

Let’s talk about another scene. After the detective saw the good policeman’s inner demon while driving, he got out of the car to talk to him. At this time, his wife shouted to him from behind: Don’t worry about it and return the gun to him. He is no longer a policeman.

If I trust you, I will get you killed.

This shows that in the detective's heart, he already knew that it would be dangerous for him to continue to deal with this matter, but he still decided to continue to deal with it in order to prevent the good police from getting into trouble. In fact, this was also a part of the detective's struggle with his inner demons.

The result of the struggle was that he chose to protect the police regardless of his own danger.

The Detective is contradictory, and it also reflects the choice problem in reality. Right or wrong is just a matter of thought, and sometimes it is very helpless.

Everyone has inner demons in their heart, whether it is greed, lust, or cowardice, they are all inner demons, and whenever they encounter something.

The battle between inner demons is a choice.

In addition to the detective, the ending of He Jia'an's good policeman image gives people a subversive feeling.

Some people are angry and think that He Jiaan is a real villain.

However, in Zhou Shaoming's view, He Jia'an is more like a portrayal of most people in life.

Inner demons arise slowly, with too much helplessness and sadness. As time goes by, as people work more and more in society, people become more and more mature. The emergence of inner demons is a kind of
To be continued...
