Chapter 443 Movie King Level Explosive Acting Skills
If you want to find a movie that is underestimated or not getting the honor it deserves in the Chinese film industry on earth, "Infernal Affairs" can definitely be ranked first.

This film, known as the last pinnacle of Xiangjiang in the early 21st century, is definitely a classic among classics.

However, some irony is that the copyright of "Infernal Affairs" was bought by Hollywood back then, and a movie called "Infernal Affairs" was remade, which finally won Oscars for best picture, best director and many other awards.

After "Infernal Affairs" was selected for the Oscar, it was directly rejected in the first round.

This also made many Chinese filmmakers sigh.

In a different world, Wei Xun was not so naive that if "Infernal Affairs" was selected for an Oscar, there would be any different results. After all, an award like an Oscar does not mean that the quality of the film is enough to win the award.

Apart from the award itself, this award is given more complicated international factors, and there are too many inexplicable things competing behind it.

So Wei Xun changed his target, and he set his sights on next year's Cannes.

With Bai Qianchi, Zeng Wei, and Chen Qiuheng, three film stars, and an investment of 6000 million yuan, three times more than the original version of "Infernal Affairs", Wei Xun believes that he can reproduce this movie perfectly, and even shot better.

And the fact is indeed the case, the drama between the four film kings amazes the staff of the crew every day.

Bai Qianchi and the others were amazed at the script of "Infernal Affairs".

Such a story of human entanglements and multi-layered reversals was written in the vulgar shell of gangsters and police fighting. It can only be said that Wei Xun really has an astonishing super talent in screenwriting.

"Director Wei, you have been on the set for more than a month, and I really admire you."

On the set, Chen Qiuheng looked at Wei Xun and praised seriously: "I even dare to say that this "Infernal Affairs" will definitely sweep all major film festivals next year."

As a veteran actor of Xiangjiang, Chen Qiuheng has seen too many talented filmmakers over the years, but he has never had such a great impact on him like Wei Xun.

Regardless of the level of screenwriting, directing, and performance, Wei Xun's performance is admirable.

Even Chen Qiuheng, who claims to be an old drama, looks more like an old drama.

"It's too early to say these things now, but Brother Qiu Heng, you can wrap up and rest after today's scene is over." Wei Xun said with a smile when he heard the words: "Zou Min specially prepared a wrap-up banquet for you, let's drink something tonight, it just so happens relax for a moment."

For Wei Xun's politeness, Chen Qiuheng seemed to be very helpful, and said with a smile: "Okay, then thank you, President Wei."

In the next scene, the police officer played by Chen Qiuheng was thrown from the roof of the building by the triad gang and fell to his death.

And Chen Yongren, played by Wei Xun, witnessed the death of his boss at the door.

It can be said that this scene is definitely the most exciting, tear-jerking, and shocking scene in the "Infernal Affairs" movie, second only to "Rooftop Standoff".

So after communicating with Chen Qiuheng, Wei Xun went to the dressing room to apply makeup, and then quietly waited for the filming to start.

He had already drawn up the shot script and gave it to Zhaohui. Basically, when he couldn't move his hands, Zhaohui would just follow the script and shoot it step by step.

Around one o'clock in the afternoon, a staff member came over and asked in a low voice, "Director Wei, can we start?"

Wei Xun came out of the dressing room, nodded and said, "It's ok."

So, the whole crew started to work.

After 10 minutes, the plot started shooting.

Chen Yongren and Huang Zhibin made an appointment to meet on the roof of the rooftop, but they were urgently surrounded by the triads.

So the two fled in two ways. Chen Yongren left from the back door, took a taxi to the front door of the building, and hurried back, fearing that the triads would find out.

Because there is an undercover incident in the triad society, Han Chen has already noticed that this gangster is doing his best to find out the undercover.

"Master, go to the front door."

In Zhaohui's shot, Chen Yongren, played by Wei Xun, ran out of the building and got into a taxi.

Different from Wei Xun's previous roles, Chen Yongren this time is a good guy in the skin of a bad guy.

He was wearing a black leather jacket, with an unshaven face, and his long hair was always slightly greasy. He looked very haggard and tired.

But what is different from his downcast appearance is that Chen Yongren has a pair of always moist and sad eyes.

Liu Jianming was in the police station, and because Han Chen caught him with a black history, it was equivalent to being imprisoned and shackled.

But Chen Yongren was shackled by "justice". He was obviously a policeman, but he was forced to work as an undercover agent for ten years. This kind of life made him tired, but he couldn't go out.

Because his boss Huang Zhibin has been refusing to restore his identity.

In the past ten years, he has done all kinds of bad things in the gang, and sometimes he can't tell whether he is a bad guy or a good guy.

So his eyes are always tired and sad.

In just 2 minutes, Chen Yongren walked from the back door to the front door in a taxi, then got out of the car and rushed towards the building.

As soon as he walked to the door, there was a loud 'bang' behind him.

The sound was right next to his ears, the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, and the crisp sound of glass shattering, made him shiver subconsciously, and then turned his head immediately.

I just met him on the roof, and then we parted. Huang Zhibin was lying on the roof of the taxi he got off.

Huang Zhibin was thrown from the rooftop.

The air around him seemed to be frozen, and the pupils of Chen Yongren's always tired eyes suddenly constricted at this moment. He stared at Huang Zhibin who was lying on the roof of the car not far from him, and subconsciously walked towards him step by step.

There were so many emotions in those eyes that even Siu Hui, who was sitting behind the camera, felt his scalp go numb.

He didn't use any fancy shooting techniques, but directly focused on Wei Xun's face with a long lens.

At this moment, Chen Yongchen didn't have time to grieve over the death of his boss and colleague, because the only person in the police station who knew his undercover status was Huang Zhibin.

Huang Zhibin's death meant that no one stood up to prove to him that he was a good person.

In other words, his ten-year-long expectation of restoring his identity has come to nothing at this moment.

There was disbelief in his eyes, confusion about the future, his mind was blank, and he was in a daze.

Because it was so sudden.

However, when he walked a few steps closer to Huang Zhibin's body and saw his tragic death, Chen Yongren realized that this person was really dead.

The great grief that hit his body made him feel a little hard to breathe, and he couldn't catch his breath.He fixed his eyes on Huang Zhibin's corpse, his chest heaved and his lips and jaw trembled.

He wanted to cry, but the incident was too scary or sudden for him to even cry.

So Chen Yongren stretched out his hand and touched his forehead. Before he could calm down, the triad boy next to him grabbed him and shouted: "Go, Brother Ren, the police are here!"

The police came, and the gun battle between the two sides was on the verge of breaking out, and the street instantly became a battlefield.

In Zhaohui's camera, bullets were flying outside, Chen Yongren was sitting in the car, staring at Huang Zhibin's body, his eyes filled with tears.

"pass!"

At this time, Zhaohui stopped, and shouted with excitement: "Director Wei, this scene will definitely be included in China's top [-] classic scenes!"

ps: Every time I revisit "Infernal Affairs", when I see this episode, I will feel my scalp go numb from Tony Leung's performance. There is not a single line, and the 3-minute face-to-face scene is full of drama in the eyes.

It is recommended that those who have not seen this movie can watch this classic old movie while they have plenty of time recently.
