Chapter 884 Start of "The Thief of the Years"

Chapter 884 Start of "The Thief of the Years"

Li Yi did not directly copy out the script of the story "Sister Tao" like he did at other times.

Instead, after the chat, he told the story of the movie "Sister Tao".

In terms of the script, he didn't intervene too much, and directly threw it to Mu Qing, You Ningsheng and Qi Lin to discuss it.

On the one hand, he is really not free, after all, "The Thief of Time" is about to start filming.

On the other hand, it is also because there are still some differences between the movie "Sister Tao" and the story of Qi Lin's family today, so Li Yi has no plans to change anything.

And this is Mu Qing's movie, not his.

Wynn Street!
The Luo family was settled here.

The arrangement of the crew has already been declared complete.

Luo's shoe store, barber shop, neighbors, etc. have all been arranged.

And it's been several days.

As an old street on Hong Kong Island, Wing Lee Street may eventually be demolished, but at least at this time, it is still exuding its final glory.

Today, the streets of Yongli Street are crowded with people, because the opening ceremony of "The Thief of Time" was held here.

Although "The Thief of Time" is not a big production, it is just a low-cost literary film, but because the director is Li Yi, because this is the first film in the Hong Kong Island Past Events series.

Therefore, it not only attracted local media from Hong Kong Island to hear the news, but also attracted many mainland media to come across the sea from the mainland.

"Wow, I didn't expect Hong Kong Island to retain such an old street with a sense of age." A reporter from the mainland sighed in surprise when he saw the old and slightly dilapidated street.

"I've heard that this street was originally going to be demolished, but because Li Yi took a fancy to this old street that has been preserved in the 60s and wanted to take pictures here, the demolition was postponed. Consider, if the influence of "The Thief of Time" is large enough, it may be possible to keep this old street." Another reporter said.

"Director Dog is getting better and better!" The reporter couldn't help sighing after hearing this.

"Hehe, can you not be awesome? The number one person in Chinese-language movies, do you think it's bragging? Besides, he is here, but he is called the light of Hong Kong Island, and he still has some influence."

The scene of the launch conference of "The Thief of Time" was full of voices.

Soon, it was time for the launch conference, and the host stepped onto the temporary stage.

"Thank you, friends from the media, for coming to the press conference of "The Thief of Time"" This time the host is not Fang Nan, but Wu Wen, the head host of Hong Kong Island TV.

After the opening of some routine, it quickly entered the topic.

Li Yi, the protagonist, came out.

""The Thief of Time" is adapted from the real experience of director Meng Qiguang, and it mainly tells the story of a family on Hong Kong Island in the 60s."

Many reporters who are familiar with Li Yi's style couldn't help but roll their eyes. As expected of you, Director Dog, you are as short as ever!
"The film will reproduce the style and features of the old Hong Kong Island in that era. First of all, I would like to thank the Hong Kong government. The street we are now on is the last old street in the 60s on Hong Kong Island. It was supposed to be demolished, but the Hong Kong government decided to Take care of us, and deliberately postpone the demolition until we finish filming. We will use this street to reproduce the Sham Shui Po of the year." To the surprise of the media reporters, this time Li Yi actually said a lot more.

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, let the leading actors of the film "The Thief of Time" come out and introduce themselves to everyone." Li Yi did not continue to talk, but directly introduced the leading lineup of the film.

Fang Zhisheng was the first to appear.

It's just that as soon as he appeared on the stage, the media reporters below made a commotion.

The main reason is that Fang Zhisheng has changed too much.

He was wearing a sweatshirt that seemed to be stained with sweat, and there was a hole in the chest of the sweatshirt. The lower body was wearing worn-out black trousers with rolled-up trousers, and a pair of plastic slippers that were definitely not famous brands. The graying of the temples.

"Wow, what a transformation!"

"It's almost unrecognizable!"

"It seems to be very different from his usual image."

The reporters below couldn't help discussing.

"Hi everyone, I'm Fang Zhisheng, playing the role of Papa Luo in "The Thief of Time"!"

Soon, the heroine Xu Fangfang came out.

Xu Fangfang's image changes are also exaggerated.

In fact, this also has a lot to do with the usual image of actresses and actresses. After all, most actresses and actresses always show their best side in front of the public.

But Xu Fangfang felt completely different at this moment.

She was wearing an old-fashioned red plaid dress, and her hair was a specially glued wig, which was luxuriantly placed on her forehead.Like Fang Zhisheng, she wore plastic slippers on her feet, and her figure looked a little fatter.Moreover, the makeup on her face was quite heavy and colorful, which seemed a bit out of tune with the environment.

But when Xu Fangfang and Fang Zhisheng stand together like this, it gives people a very strange sense of harmony.

It seems that they should be a couple living at the bottom of the old street in the 60s.

"Hello everyone, I'm Xu Fangfang, playing the role of Luo's mother in "The Thief of Time"!"

After that, there is the actor of the eldest son Luo Jinyi, Luo Feng who just won the Best Newcomer Award at the Academy Awards, and the youngest son Luo Jiner played by child actor Xu Fei.

However, compared to Luo's father and Luo's mother, it is not so interesting.

Soon it was time for interviews with media reporters.

Li Yi was the first questioned by the reporters.

"Director Li, can you tell me why you want to make such a movie?"

This kind of question is a panacea, but it is almost a must-ask question.

Li Yi was already familiar with this.

"Everyone should have heard that the prototype of this movie was directed by Meng Qiguang. In fact, Director Meng wanted to make this movie himself, but he couldn't direct it himself because of his health. I heard the story he told at the time. After that, I was very moved. In fact, when I was a child, I did not listen to my grandfather telling stories about their era. After listening to Meng Dao’s story, my wife and I visited many old neighbors from that era and listened to them. Tell a lot of old stories."

"For this reason, I became more and more interested in the old stories of that era, so I decided to shoot this "The Thief of Time", hoping to re-display the era that was once forgotten by us. I think it should be a Something more interesting."

"I also like Hong Kong Island in that era very much. I hope to make this movie to reproduce the life of our fathers that we have never experienced."

"The film will tell the story of their parents from the perspective of the two children of the Luo family, Luo Jinyi and Luo Jiner. Time may have stolen many things from us, such as love, family, friendship, and our parents .But the years have also left us with things that live forever in our memories.”
