The king of all people

Chapter 326 Praise sweeps across Hong Kong!
"Indeed! I was crying and laughing, and I was very touched after watching this movie. There are too many remarkable things. This year's Hong Kong film market is going to be windy..."

Tao Bi's initial review of the movie aroused the emotions of several film critic colleagues around him.They all recovered from their ecstasy.Opening their mouths, even they themselves couldn't restrain their praises one after another.

Movies are actually a relatively subjective object.There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and if someone says a good movie, someone will definitely give a bad review.

Take the sci-fi blockbuster "Avatar", which has dominated the global box office for many years, as an example. The number of people who criticize this film from the perspective of destroying the three views and fabricating it out of thin air is not much less than those who regard it as a super miracle film.

However, compared with the overall film reviews, there are relatively few differences in the evaluation of the actors' acting skills.If it can really use meticulous and exquisite performances and touching emotional investment, the vast majority of audiences will praise it.

Just like Li Xian who played Liu Jianming in "Infernal Affairs" today, the movie has ended, and a group of people are still savoring every minute and every second of his performance in the movie.

Looking deeper, perhaps due to time constraints and tight plots, the film "Infernal Affairs" is somewhat confusing in handling some content, and some suspenseful scenes cannot be explained clearly, which brings you unavoidable doubts.However, these overall mistakes such as director's editing and regular sequence arrangement were ignored by more than 1000 viewers.

There is only one reason - Li Xian, the mainland actor whom they criticized in words and writing, has created too many dazzling and perfect advantages!
The lights flicker and the movie ends.

At the end of the film, which lasted about two hours, the audience expressed their opinions and had a heated discussion off the stage. At the same time, two directors, Liu Weiqiang and Mak Siu-fai, led a group of main creators onto the big stage.

The chief master of ceremonies hosting this premiere is Zeng Zhiwei's daughter Zeng Baoyi, who is not beautiful but has a good temperament.She appeared in the latest pale pink Versace evening dress, and the first sentence she picked up the microphone aroused the enthusiasm of the audience. "Audience friends, if you like this movie, let me hear your applause and shouts, okay?"

Crash, crackle, crackle!
The thunderous feedback resounded immediately!The audience, who were talking about their feelings with their friends, applauded from the bottom of their hearts.

"It's great! "Infernal Affairs" is really a rare masterpiece! I'm glad I didn't refuse the ticket to the premiere because of the rumors before the release..."

"Is there a second movie for this movie? I really want to know what happened to Liu Jianming!"

"Li Xian is so handsome! I must bring my relatives and friends to the cinema to support him and "Infernal Affairs"!"

Mandarin, Cantonese, and all kinds of passionate emotions lasted for a long time.Listening to these voices that are completely opposite to the voices scolding himself for ruining a good film and boycotting before the premiere, Li Xian, who was standing on the stage, felt a burst of emotion.Even the Hong Kong media who were planning to publish a draft to smear him were hysterically calling his name...

Mai Zhaohui and Liu Weiqiang witnessed everything on the scene, the pressure in their hearts fell like a huge stone, and they let out a deep breath of suffocation that had been suffocated for a long time.They have been making films in Hong Kong for so many years, and before it was released, they said that this time "Infernal Affairs" encountered the most controversy and criticism.If such a big-production and high-investment film really fails, their status in the film industry may plummet in the future...

The feeling of worrying about gain and loss finally dissipated at tonight's premiere.Especially Liu Weiqiang, who is a senior book fan of "Tomb Raiders Notes", watched Li Xian change Hong Kong people's thinking of him with his true talents and personal charm, and he was even more excited than he was praised.

After a short warm-up session, Zeng Baoyi handed over the right to speak to the crew of "Infernal Affairs".Mai Zhaohui said to everyone with a smile on his face: "Thank you very much for giving us face in your busy schedule. Judging from your reactions, it seems that you are quite satisfied with the content of the film, haha!"

Mak Siu Fai's self-promotion did not arouse everyone's disgust, on the contrary, it brought everyone a very real and natural feeling.After all, in their hearts, "Infernal Affairs" can no longer be described as simply satisfactory...

"In fact, this subject that Lao Liu and I have been preparing for more than two years can be presented in front of everyone as scheduled. I must thank one person, that is, the starring brother Li Xian in the film. Without his help and perfection, " Even if the script of "Infernal Affairs" is filmed, it will only be a second-class work full of loopholes and confusing stories..."

Swish!
The audience in the seats was silent, and after a long time of stunned, another wave of applause broke out.

What Mai Zhaohui meant was straightforward and easy to understand. He was telling everyone that Li Xian is also one of the screenwriters of the movie "Infernal Affairs"!

That is to say, Li Xian not only acted as a soul character that gave them endless aftertaste and infinite emotions, but also helped the two directors to create a chain of links for their group of moviegoers. A wonderful story of a battle of wits and wits carefully considered!
Moreover, judging from Mak Siu-fai's tone, without Li Xian, what is presented to everyone today might really be exactly the same as their previous ideas-a low-quality work with big gimmicks and poor quality!
All of a sudden, almost all the focus of the audience was on Li Xian alone.Whether it was originally aimed at ridiculing him, or watching the premiere for Liu Dehua, Chen Huilin and other actors, the people in the premiere also automatically shifted their gaze...

The media are basically a sharp-eyed group who can adapt to the wind, throwing a series of questions to Li Xian like a pack of hungry wolves.Li Xian first smiled to express his gratitude, then thought about it and said: "Actually, I just added some jokes in my own opinion to the script. The two directors have already prepared the overall direction of the story early in the morning. Fortunately, Yes, these ideas of mine can really be applied to the script, and then fully presented in the movie.”

"Then why are you interested in the genre of police and gangster films? And you are so handy?" Naturally, reporters will not give up easily, and strictly abide by the professional "literacy" of reporters to "break the casserole and ask the end".

"Everyone should have played CS Half-Life, right? In fact, my inspiration came from this game at first, and then I came up with the idea of ​​writing a story." The reporter came, and the dramatic humor made the audience burst into laughter.

"Haha... He is not the same as Liu Jianming in real life! By the way, why didn't I think about it so much when I was playing CS?" With his hand in his mouth, he laughed and made a thoughtful, puzzled expression.

"Ouch..." Zhai Yuanyuan was nauseated for a while, and said with disdain and contempt: "It's just you! When you are playing games, you will be shot as soon as you revive! What are you talking about, you are dreaming!"

After finishing speaking, she stopped looking at that extremely disgusting person, and instead stared at the idol Li Xian who was dealing with reporters on the stage with rosy face and nympho.

The more I look at it, the more I feel an irresistible handsomeness...

After pestering Li Xian for more than ten minutes, the media reluctantly went to interview the other protagonists in the film.Although there is a lack of interest, these reporters are not stupid enough to show this feeling on their faces.After all, this is Hong Kong. After all, these actors are powerful figures in Hong Kong, and they even command the wind and rain. Offending anyone will not do them any good.

After the media interview session, today's grand premiere ceremony of "Infernal Affairs" came to an end. Under the guidance and arrangement of the staff, more than 1000 spectators left the Hung Hom Stadium in an orderly manner.

Now, they are unanimously determined in their hearts to do something that they can't wait to accomplish - try their best to spread the word of mouth of "Infernal Affairs" and try to let more friends watch this veritable big production Co-produced the film, let the praise sweep the whole Hong Kong!
In two hours, this Hong Kong region, which Li Xian was "unfamiliar with", seemed to be faintly becoming Li Xian's main battlefield!He is the absolute protagonist who is more popular tonight than all the kings and queens, superstars and big-name guests!
A movie marks that Li Xian's career map will expand from the mainland in great strides from this moment on, starting his new round of conquest in the Hong Kong market!
The audience dispersed, and the venue gradually became quiet.Before going backstage to change clothes and leave, Li Xian ran into Zhang Yimou who barely spoke to him while watching the movie.

"Young man, you really impress me... This film is bound to bring a trend in both sides of the strait!" Zhang Yimou kept smiling, and his wrinkles seemed to have eased a lot.First he gave Li Xian a thumbs up, then he touched the back of his head and said hesitantly, "By the way, are you free recently?"

"Ah...?" Li Xian questioned instinctively, and then yelled after reacting: "Thank you Director Zhang, thank you for your auspicious words! I don't think anything serious has happened recently, what's wrong?"

Apart from the promotion work of "Infernal Affairs", Li Xian's next focus of work should be the promotion of the new album and the release of "Mobile".Columbia Pictures has already bought the overseas distribution rights from Feng Xiaogang, and I should go abroad for a while.

Zhang Yimou didn't answer directly, but lifted his chin and nodded, then took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Li Xian. "This is my postcard, work hard and don't forget your original intention!"

After saying some words that didn't make sense, Zhang Yimou didn't go backstage with Li Xian to catch up with the two directors. Instead, he lowered the brim of his hat that covered his face, and left the huge Hung Hom Stadium.
