Chapter 207: A famous scene from "Infernal Affairs"!! I want to be a good person! (Please subscribe)
Song Hao's directing and filming abilities are getting stronger and stronger.
As long as the camera angles don't involve special effects, he can usually get it right in one take with the actors' cooperation.
He is not like some directors who use hundreds of cameras and shoot a single shot more than a dozen times, just for that one perfect angle.
After all, he has already watched "Infernal Affairs" several times in his mind.
As long as the veteran actors in front of us deliver solid performances, we can usually get it right in one take.
After powering on, for more than 10 days in a row, it was basically working perfectly on the first try.
Hua Ge also didn't expect that they would cooperate so well with Song Hao.
Basically, whenever Song Hao mentions an idea, he and Tony Leung will know what it is.
During a break from filming, Song Hao went to Liu Dehua's side.
At this moment, Liu Dehua was still looking at the script and had no idea that Song Hao had come to his side.
After a moment, he realized what was happening and immediately gestured, "Director Song."
Song Hao exclaimed, "Brother Hua truly deserves to be called a dedicated senior; he even reads the script during his breaks."
“It’s not just me, look at them too.” As he spoke, Liu Dehua pointed to Tony Leung and the others sitting in front.
Although Tony Leung and Eric Tsang were chatting, they still had scripts in their hands and would glance at them and discuss them from time to time.
For them, even during breaks, they have to thoroughly study these scripts while filming.
Try to keep the character's state consistent.
Song Hao then invited, "Brother Hua, if this movie is a box office hit, we'll have the opportunity to collaborate again in the future."
"Regardless of whether this movie is a box office hit or not, I will come as long as you invite me and I have the time," Liu Dehua said with a smile.
"That's good!"
Song Hao said cheerfully, "I reckon you'll be needed for the second part of 'The Wandering Earth'."
"Sure." Liu Dehua thought Song Hao wanted him to play a cameo role: "I'll play the best extra in the play."
Song Hao retorted, "You'll be the lead actor then. You were born to be the lead, how could you possibly play a supporting role?"
Liu Dehua was somewhat surprised: "You're going to let me play the lead role?"
He naturally knew how much "The Wandering Earth" had grossed.
This film, "The Wandering Earth," is enough to shake up the entire mainland box office market.
It grossed over 50 billion yuan at the box office!!
The significance of five films that grossed over 1 billion yuan at the box office!
If you make a movie that grosses a billion dollars, you'll have a place in the entertainment industry.
Not to mention that five of your films have grossed over a billion dollars each.
Song Hao, on the other hand, managed to achieve a box office of over 50 billion yuan for a single film.
These are terrifying numbers.
Song Hao chuckled, "That's right, I'll be inviting you to be the male lead then. You and Wu Jing are the male leads of two different storylines."
Liu Dehua was somewhat surprised and asked in bewilderment, "So, the second part of 'The Wandering Earth' is already in your mind?"
"You'll find out when the time comes, Brother Hua," Song Hao said, keeping everyone in suspense.
This made Liu Dehua admire Song Hao's abilities even more.
He's practically a filming fanatic.
What exactly is his ceiling?!
They are capable of writing great literary stories like "Ocean Heaven" and "Lost and Found".
They can also produce large-scale blockbusters like "Operation Red Sea" and "The Wandering Earth"!
What kinds of subjects is Song Hao not good at?
Currently, Liu Dehua cannot be found.
It's still unclear what kind of subject matter could possibly stop Song Hao.
Song Hao continued filming "Infernal Affairs" as planned.
However, during this period...
Invitations have been sent out for the new Saturn Awards in North America.
It's worth noting that when "2012" was released during the Lunar New Year season last year, it caused quite a stir.
Everyone thinks that Song Hao's science fiction film, which is a disaster movie, will win some awards at the Saturn Awards.
However, in the Best Science Fiction Film award, 2012 lost to The Amazing Blade Runner.
This angered the people of China.
They believe that the Saturn Prize has lost its so-called fairness and impartiality.
So even though "The Wandering Earth" was incredibly popular this year, sparking a sci-fi craze around the world, netizens still felt that Song Hao shouldn't participate in such a Saturn Award.
Song Hao wasn't too concerned about the award, especially since he was currently filming.
Therefore, he declined the invitation from the organizers of the Saturn Awards.
When the president of the Saturn Prize learned of this news, he personally called Song Hao.
“Mr. Song, I am deeply sorry that your film 2012 did not win any awards last year.”
"I really liked your film '2012.' With all the special effects, it vividly portrayed the various expressions and actions people showed in the face of disaster. However, the judges may have had different opinions, so they ultimately did not award your film '2012.'"
"Therefore, I have reaffirmed with the organizing committee this year that the best science fiction film this year must be your 'The Wandering Earth'. No one can surpass this film. So I hope Mr. Song can give the Saturn Awards a chance to come and attend our Saturn Awards ceremony."
Hearing this, Song Hao was both amused and exasperated.
The awards haven't even been presented yet, but I'm already telling myself that "The Wandering Earth" is already the best sci-fi film.
That's enough to prove that last year's film awards were also predetermined.
Although Song Hao was reluctant to go, the Wandering Earth series deserves some awards.
After all, if a sequel is made in the future, it will provide more publicity to some extent.
He glanced at the crew members; they had been filming for over half a month, and everyone looked somewhat tired.
After considering it for a moment, he said to Liu Dehua and the others, "Brother Hua, Brother Chaowei, I plan to give everyone a week off, and I'll also be going to North America to attend an awards ceremony."
Upon hearing this, Liu Dehua nodded and congratulated, "It's definitely going to be nominated for the Saturn Awards in North America. 'The Wandering Earth' will surely win an award."
Tony Leung also laughed and said, "This year, 'The Wandering Earth' can be said to have become a global phenomenon. There should be no other science fiction film that can compare to it."
Zeng Zhiwei expressed his concern: "With a week's time, wouldn't the production team have to spend a lot more money?"
Song Hao explained, "It's okay. Our movie doesn't require much equipment. At most, we'll just need to rent the venue for another week. I can afford that."
When Song Hao told the crew that they would be taking a week off, everyone was very happy.
And they all encouraged him, saying, "Director Song, you must win an award!"
"Yes, we must bring back an award!"
"The Wandering Earth will definitely win an award this time!!"
"I believe in our 'The Wandering Earth'; it's definitely not a mistake."
"Director Song, keep it up!"
After Song Hao left, he immediately contacted the main cast team of "The Wandering Earth".
Wu Jing couldn't go to North America with Song Hao because she had to film another movie.
Wu Lei wanted to go, but unfortunately, he had to miss the exam at school.
Only Zhao Jinmai was available.
Song Hao originally planned to go alone.
But he couldn't resist Zhao Jinmai's persuasion, and after thinking it over, he finally took her with him.
The day I went.
Zhao Jinmai wore a casual pink long shirt and carried a small bag, looking quite stylish and charming.
It has to be said that, in terms of youthful looks, she does fit the image that some young boys like.
However, Song Hao always felt that she was too young.
She was only suitable to be a younger sister; I didn't have any particular feelings for her.
Zhao Jinmai was very excited throughout the journey.
They chattered incessantly.
Song Hao couldn't help but sigh, Ni Ni was an intellectual and sophisticated woman; sometimes, she knew what he wanted just from a glance.
Shuangshi, on the other hand, is a girl with a refined temperament, and their relationship is more about exchanging ideas on a spiritual level.
Zhao Jinmai has a completely different style of image.
It was precisely because of this that Song Hao, who has been filming for the past few years, seemed to rediscover some of his youthful spirit in these two days.
Soon, they arrived at the venue for the Saturn Awards.
Just as he led Zhao Jinmai into the venue, he heard someone calling his name from not far away.
"Song, Song~"
Song Hao turned around and looked.
It was discovered to be Elizabeth Olsen.
Song Hao greeted her, "Hey, Elizabeth, long time no see."
Elizabeth Olsen knew Song Hao would come and had been waiting on the sidelines.
When she saw Song Hao, she immediately went up to him: "Long time no see, how have you been?"
"Not bad. Are you here for the Saturn Awards too?" Song Hao asked.
Out of respect for the beautiful woman, Song Hao also politely looked at Elizabeth in front of him.
She looked poised and elegant in a black dress.
Elizabeth Olsen said, "Yes, I was very happy when I learned that you would be coming too."
He then glanced at Zhao Jinmai beside Song Hao and asked, "Who is this?"
"This is Zhao Jinmai, the female lead of 'The Wandering Earth'."
Song Hao also introduced Zhao Jinmai: "This is Elizabeth Olsen."
Looking at Elizabeth in front of her, Zhao Jinmai, relying on a woman's intuition, immediately noticed her size.
She looked down and realized it was a level she could never reach in her lifetime.
Elizabeth Olsen said with great envy, "I really envy you for being able to be the leading lady in Director Song's film. I wish I could make a movie with him."
Song Hao said with a smile, "There will be opportunities. We will definitely cooperate if there are opportunities."
"Okay, I've been waiting for you to say that."
Before long, they all entered the venue.
Throughout the entire awards ceremony, Zhao Jinmai couldn't stop thinking about Elizabeth's figure.
She glanced at Song Hao beside her, as if she had made a decision.
Big doesn't necessarily mean good; it should be refined!
soon.
The awards ceremony is about to begin.
The Saturn Awards proceeded as usual, displaying a list of rather unremarkable awards.
The grand prize was saved for last.
Besides "The Wandering Earth" competing for Best Science Fiction Film this year, Hollywood's "Vision" is also a strong contender.
The directing team of "Vision" also came to the Saturn Awards venue, hoping to win the Best Science Fiction Film award there.
They were very confident because of this, believing that even the very popular "The Wandering Earth" this year was no match for "Vision".
As the awards ceremony proceeded...
The most prestigious awards are about to be announced.
The host looked at the audience and then said, "Now I have the list of winners for Best Sci-Fi Film! Can you guess which movie it is?"
The screen was scrolling through the list of nominees at that moment.
Although a total of five films were nominated.
The Wandering Earth and Hollywood blockbuster Vision are the strongest competitors.
However, the majority of those present were North American directors and artists, who were more inclined to believe that the Saturn Award would be given to Hollywood's "Vision".
After all, at the same time last year, the Saturn Award was given to Warner Bros. Pictures' "The Amazing Blade Runner," not "2012."
So they felt this year would be no exception.
Zhao Jinmai was very nervous at this moment.
Looking at Song Hao's calm expression, she asked softly, "Director Song, aren't you nervous?"
"What do I have to be nervous about?" Song Hao said with a smile.
Zhao Jinmai muttered to herself, "I must win an award, I must win an award."
The team from "Vision" watched the host on stage with excitement, and they stood up to celebrate every time he read out the list.
However, when the host announced the winners of the Best Science Fiction Film award, many people in the audience were stunned.
"Congratulations to 'The Wandering Earth' for winning the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film this year! Let's welcome Song Hao, the Chinese director of 'The Wandering Earth'!"
The host gave them a warm welcome.
Elizabeth Olsen also applauded happily when she learned that Song Hao had won the award.
Zhao Jinmai was so happy she couldn't express it in words, and she grabbed Song Hao's hand.
Song Hao smiled, hugged her, patted her on the back, and then went on stage to accept the award.
After receiving the award, he immediately gave a few words of acceptance speech.
At that moment, he clearly noticed several pairs of angry eyes staring at him from below the stage.
That must be the main cast of "Vision".
However, he didn't care at all, since the person presenting the award was a judge for the Saturn Awards.
Sure enough, after the Saturn Awards ceremony...
The cast and crew of "Vision" demanded a confrontation with the Saturn Awards judges, wanting to question them about why they didn't win Best Science Fiction Film.
Of course, Song Hao wouldn't get involved in these matters.
He took the trophy and led Zhao Jinmai back to their hotel.
That evening, led by their friend Jason Statham, the group explored the local scenery and sampled a variety of delicious foods.
Because Zhao Jinmai had drunk some red wine and felt a little dizzy, Song Hao took her back.
After making sure the girl could take care of herself, Song Hao returned to his room.
As soon as I got back, Elizabeth Olsen sent me a message.
"Song, may I come to your place for a while?"
Song Hao naturally understood the conversation between these adults.
He told Elizabeth the room number.
Not long after, Elizabeth Olsen arrived.
The two then began a long, heart-to-heart talk.
The next morning, Song Hao took Zhao Jinmai to the airport.
Zhao Jinmai asked curiously, "Hey? Elizabeth didn't come to see us off yesterday."
"Maybe I'm just too busy," Song Hao replied.
"Looks like your relationship isn't all that great~" Zhao Jinmai teased.
Song Hao smiled but didn't say anything more.
Soon, Song Hao returned to China with honors.
The internet is flooded with praise for him.
"Director Song is absolutely amazing!!"
"The Wandering Earth should have won the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film."
"That's right, I think so too!!"
"This award can now completely solidify the influence of Chinese science fiction in the world."
"When will Director Song film the second movie? I can't wait!"
"No rush, no rush. Let's first see what Director Song's crime film is like."
And here.
The actors, who had taken a week's break, are back.
They all regained the enthusiasm and energy they had when they first turned on the machine.
Today we're filming the most exciting and memorable scene in the entire movie.
That was the scene between Lau Tak-Wai and Tony Leung.
[I didn't have a choice before, but now I want to be a good person!!] Filming is about to begin!
After this scene was filmed...
Song Hao immediately began post-production and released this teaser trailer ahead of schedule.
Netizens were all amused.
I just got back from winning the grand prize, and there's already a trailer to watch!!
It's so cool.
"Holy crap!! It's a scene between two award-winning actors!!"
"I absolutely have to see this!!!"
"Ahhh, the scenes between Wah Gor and Chiu Wai are amazing! I love both of them so much!"
"He truly is an ageless god!!"
Netizens all thought this police thriller would feature exciting gunfights or memorable scenes of police catching criminals.
Unexpectedly, it turned out that the two people were talking on the rooftop.
At first, many people complained.
"Huh? I clicked on it and found it was about Brother Hua going to the rooftop?"
"I thought they were going to shoot."
"Hahaha, it's a scene between Brother Hua and Brother Wei."
However, in less than ten seconds, they realized something was wrong!
Right now, in the trailer.
Liu Dehua was wearing a suit, but his expression was somewhat solemn.
The camera kept shooting at the glass of the building, reflecting Liu Dehua's figure.
On a sunny afternoon, Liu Dehua walked alone onto the rooftop, seemingly searching for someone.
The next second, relying on his police instincts, he turned around and looked for Chen Yongren, played by Tony Leung.
However, Tony Leung is also a police officer who has been lying in wait for many years, so he naturally has counter-surveillance awareness.
His gun was pressed against the back of Lau Kin-ming, played by Lau Tak-wah.
And so, Chen Yongren stepped out from behind Liu Jianming.
This iconic scene will become a classic in history.
Chen Yongren took away Liu Jianming's gun and handcuffs, and removed all the bullets from the gun.
Liu Jianming smiled and said, "Quite skilled."
Chen Yongren said with a fierce look in his eyes, "I also went to police academy."
As he spoke, he handcuffed Liu Jianming.
Liu Jianming gave a wry smile: "You undercover agents are really interesting, you all like going to the rooftop."
“I’m not like you, I’m aboveboard.” Chen Yongren is a policeman, and he considers himself to be on the side of justice.
He asked Liu Jianming, "Where is what I asked for?"
“You might not even bring me what I need,” Liu Jianming turned around and asked in return.
Chen Yongren smiled and said, "What do you mean? Just coming up to sunbathe?"
At this moment, Lau Kin-ming, played by Lau Tak-wah, said with sincere eyes, "Give me a chance."
"How can I give you a chance?" Chen Yongren seemed somewhat mocked after hearing this.
“I didn’t have a choice before, but now I want to choose to be a good person,” Liu Jianming explained.
Chen Yongren naturally didn't believe him: "Fine, go talk to the judge and see if he'll be a good person for you."
"So you want me to die?"
"Excuse me, I'm a police officer."
Liu Jianming countered with, "Who knows?"
The next second, Chen Yongren held a gun directly to Liu Jianming's head.
See this.
Netizens are in an uproar.
"Holy crap, those two minutes of rooftop dialogue almost burned out my CPU."
"Brothers, brothers, I think I've figured it out now."
"Lau Kin-ming was sent by the triads; he's been infiltrating the police force. Chan Wing-yan, on the other hand, was sent by the police. Now Lau Kin-ming wants to clear his name; he's going to delete Chan Wing-yan's entire file!!"
Wow, these two top-tier actors are going head-to-head!
"It was only two minutes long, with no gunfights or any memorable capture scenes, but why did it feel so exciting to watch?!"
"Is this Director Song's crime thriller?!"
"This isn't a police thriller, it's an undercover movie!!"
"I suddenly have a feeling that Director Song is about to make the best police and gangster film ever!"
For a time, the entire internet was discussing Song Hao's "Infernal Affairs".
Please give me a monthly ticket!!!
