I'm not mentally ill, I'm a master of a thousand faces!

When the topic of Infernal Affairs came up, Li Yun smiled and said...

"I also acted in Infernal Affairs."

"Your approach is pretty unconventional."

Tian Xiaoli was slightly surprised at this moment.

"Infernal Affairs" is a police and gangster film, and it has absolutely nothing to do with his "The Storm Riders".

Unexpectedly, Li Yun also has roles in police and gangster films.

That's surprising.

At this moment, Li Yun also smiled.

"That's quite a coincidence."

"Hmm... what role?"

"It just appeared at the beginning..." At this moment, Li Yun didn't really know how to define Liu Jianming.

It's definitely not a supporting role.

But the protagonist...

That doesn't seem quite right.

It should be said that way.

An important role?

A very important role.

Building on the past and paving the way for the future.

Connecting the past and the future...

Role.

"oh...."

Tian Xiaoli jokingly asked with a smile, "Will I see a chivalrous hero in a police drama?"

Why do you always think about your chivalrous hero?

"Is that not allowed?"

"OK....."

"Can I keep an eye on it tonight?"

"..."

.....

Xu Zhenliang, He Rundong, Zhao Wenzhuo, and Ma Rongcheng are among those attending the premiere of Infernal Affairs.

Tian Xiaoli and Li Yun also went along.

When they learned that Li Yun also had a role in it, no one was too surprised.

After all, Li Yun had expressed at the victory celebration banquet that he did not want to become a specialist in a certain stereotypical role.

This is something everyone understands.

I don't want to become a stereotypical figure...

They have lofty ambitions.

But how far can one go with ambition?

That's a matter of opinion.

Three days later, the group arrived at Hong Kong Island.

He Rundong and Zhao Wenzhuo first went to do an interview with Ma Rongcheng for publicity.

"I'll go find Niu Lao to get his autograph later..." Zhao Wenzhuo said somewhat helplessly.

Niu Lao is the original author of the Young and Dangerous series.

"You're a fan of celebrities?" He Rundong teased.

"A relative back home really likes the 'Young and Dangerous' movies and wanted my autograph... Guess what he said?"

"What did you say?"

"He'd become a gangster himself if he didn't sign it."

"Hahaha, then you're bound to get this autograph no matter what." He Rundong next to him couldn't stop laughing.

Zhao Wenzhuo was quite helpless.

However, it was just on the way; Ma Rongcheng and Niu Lao's companies weren't too far apart.

At this time.

Xu Zhenliang continued speaking along the way.

My expectations for "Infernal Affairs" are probably that it will be something similar to the "Young and Dangerous" series... or rather, with more of a conflict between good and evil.

It's a gangster movie.

It's a police and gangster movie.

The themes are nothing more than brotherhood, police-gangster battles, and the intersection of right and wrong.

In Xu Zhenliang's view.

It's nothing more than these few tricks.

But even with these few tricks, people still fall for them these days.

A battle between cops and criminals, a bond of brotherhood...

Even if you can guess the plot.

People still went to buy tickets.

"That Liu Qiangwei guy is also looking for something he's good at," Xu Zhenliang sighed. "People really need to find something that suits them."

Some people understand this.

Some people just don't understand.

At this moment.

Xu Zhenliang glanced at Li Yun, seemingly unintentionally.

Another sigh.

such a pity.

To waste such a precious resource.

Wasting talent.

...

It wasn't just Xu Zhenliang.

He Rundong and Tian Xiaoli had similar initial impressions of Infernal Affairs. To say that no one really understands the formulas of Hong Kong police and gangster films would be a lie...

"Actually, I thought last month's 'Running on Karma' was quite interesting..." At this moment, He Rundong smiled and said, "It was also starring Andy Lau."

Unfortunately.

Big guys have big wisdom.

His film flopped rather badly; it seems that not many people bought into it.

Zhao Wenzhuo nodded.

"I watched it too. The look in that murderer's eyes at the end was just... wow, absolutely amazing. Even I don't think Big Guy could forgive him."

"Haha, you saw it too."

"Yes... I'm quite interested in Buddhism."

"Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon, Great Luo Mantra, Panjnaparamita..."

"Do you still remember...."

Zhao Wenzhuo and He Rundong are like a pair of close, albeit mischievous, friends...

Their relationship is quite good....

At this moment.

After everyone had finished resting.

We arrived together at the premiere venue.

A movie theater that Liu Qiangwei had booked.

"Brother Ma, Brother Xu!"

"Hahaha, Liu Qiangwei..."

Ma Rongcheng, Liu Qiangwei, and Xu Zhenliang were trying to get close to him, and they were quite enthusiastic.

After a brief chat, Liu Qiangwei arranged for them to take their seats.

at this time.

Andy Lau.

Zeng Zhiwei.

Liang Chaowei.

They are all here.

"Little Li..." Andy Lau greeted Li Yun with a hint of appreciation.

"Liu Jianming... oh no, I should say Xiao Li, you came all the way from Beijing, are you tired? How about I take you to Portland Street tonight?" Zeng Zhiwei said to Li Yun with a teasing tone.

"Please stop teasing me, senior."

"Wow, Portland Street is so much fun!"

Bolan Street.

Li Yun refused.

This is my bottom line.

The sword is not meant to stab nameless people!

At this time.

Zhao Wenzhuo and his colleagues were also somewhat surprised.

Although I knew Li Yun was from the "Infernal Affairs" crew.

But in reality, most of the supporting cast members have little say and are basically invisible...

If it weren't for Nie Renwang's excellent performance this time, Li Yun would have been a great success.

The character exploded immediately.

Li Yun will not be included in these events.

That's reality... if you're unknown and have little influence, there's nothing you can do.

But at this moment.

Li Yun, however, seemed to... show a considerable degree of... interaction with these big stars and actors.

Familiar with...

seemingly.

Their relationship seems to be pretty good...

at this time...

Xu Zhenliang was slightly surprised.

But I still sat down properly.

At this time.

Li Yun did not come as part of Xu Zhenliang's film crew.

Instead, he appeared as an actor in the film "Infernal Affairs".

After taking their seats.

Liu Qiangwei didn't hide his nervousness either...

"nervous?"

"Um."

"Calm down, there won't be any problems." Xu Zhenliang understood this mentality, patted Liu Qiangwei on the shoulder and smiled.

The film was released.

It's still an original work.

Frankly speaking, Xu Zhenliang felt that Liu Qiangwei's nervousness was understandable.

My own version of "Storm Riders" is based on a novel, and when it first aired, I couldn't sleep for several days.

Not to mention Infernal Affairs.

There is no original work to support it.

but.

It's a mature subject matter with a fixed audience.

As long as the conflict between the police and criminals is filmed.

Then a group of people will buy into it.

It's a very mature subject matter.

At this moment, Xu Zhenliang stroked his chin and said.

"Such a well-developed subject matter, how could it possibly flop...?"

"Well, how should I put it?" Liu Qiangwei paused and said, "My film 'Infernal Affairs' is a bit different from ordinary police and gangster films."

"What difference could there be..."

Xu Zhenliang stroked his chin.

No matter how unusual the police and gangster theme is.

It's nothing more than a contest between thieves and police officers; there's nothing fancy about it.

at this time.

Liu Qiangwei said no more.

The movie "Infernal Affairs" begins...
