Chapter 267: Infinite Hell

After invited the Blue Blood Man crew to dinner at noon, at 4 pm, Chen Lin and Liu Dehua returned to Jiahe Building together to discuss the script of "Infernal Affairs".

That's right, Chen Lin chose "Infernal Affairs" as the first domestic blockbuster with an investment of over 100 million yuan in the "10 billion movie" plan. The film tells the story of two men with chaotic identities, who are undercover in the police and underworld respectively.

Liu Jianming (played by Liu Dehua) is a member of the Hong Kong gang triad. More than 10 years ago, he followed the instructions of his boss Han Chen (played by Zeng Zhiwei) and joined the Hong Kong police and became an undercover agent in the underworld. With the help of Han Chen, Jianming is expected to be promoted to an intern inspector seven years later.

Chen Yongren (played by Liang Chaowei) originally wanted to be a good policeman, but was forced to drop out of school by the police training school and secretly carried out the undercover work of infiltrating the triad. He was already a celebrity in the gang, and his boss was Han Chen.

A drug deal, black and white operations failed. The fact that both sides were undercover lurking, Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming's journey of infernal Affairs will be severely tested.

"Infernal Affairs" has been known as the rescue production of Hong Kong movies in history. It can be regarded as the epic work of Hong Kong movies and the best movie in Hong Kong in the new millennium.

In 2006, it was remade into "The Walker of the Stop" by the famous American director Martin Scorsese, and won four major awards: Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Editing, and Best Picture, which shows the influence of the film.

The script was sent to Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, Zeng Zhiwei, Huang Qiusheng and other starring actors a month ago, and they all agreed to participate.

Liu Dehua is looking forward to the opponent of Liang Chaowei. Judging from the script, the opponent of the two is the most exciting part. He has been thinking about the dialogue in the play, especially the wonderful dialogue between Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming Tiantai, which makes him unforgettable:

Liu Jianming: "Give me a chance."

Chen Yongren: "How do you give you a chance?"

Liu Jianming: "I didn't choose before, but now I want to be a good person."

Chen Yongren: "Okay, go and tell the judge, see if he lets you be a good person."

Liu Jianming: "That's to let me die."

Chen Yongren: "I'm sorry, I'm a policeman."

Liu Jianming: "Who knows?"

Liu Dehua would practice this line dialogue in front of the mirror whenever he had time, and he has practiced it dozens of times so far.

"Linzi, this rooftop rivalry was designed so cleverly." Liu Dehua couldn't help but discuss with Chen Lin: "Especially, the rooftop is a good place, and it doesn't work if you change it to other places."

"Oh, what's the effect?"

"The sky above my head is vast and vast, ethereal and pure. Only under this blue sky, the suppressed soul can be more open and honest." Liu Dehua was afraid that Chen Lin would not understand it, so he explained it again in a simple sentence: "In the play, Liu Jianming is a policeman, the bright side, but he is an undercover agent, and his heart is dark, so he usually completes transactions under the cover of darkness, such as a cinema. Chen Yongren is a gangster, the dark side, but he is an undercover agent, and his heart is bright. On the rooftop, he looks even more open and honest in the face of the bright world."

"What I said makes sense." Chen Lin nodded in agreement. Through this change in the environment, the inner world of the characters can be reflected unconsciously.

The scene in the rooftop is indeed the most exciting and classic drama in "Infernal Affairs".

On the rooftop, Chen Yongren, who was at the end of the road, pointed a gun at Liu Jianming, who was also at the end of the road. In front of the elevator, the gunshot suddenly sounded, and the evil bullet flew into Chen Yongren's eyebrows. He twitched and fell down in despair. The open and closed elevator door hit the hero who fell but was unwilling to accept it.

This ending is also unexpected and reasonable. It can be said that the ending of the film is also classic. However, Liu Dehua did raise objections to this ending.

"Linzi, although this ending is good, I can't accept it?"

"Brother Hua, what point can you accept?"

"I can accept that Chen Yongren died, but why didn't Liu Jianming, the undercover agent, die? I hope the bad guy will be punished in the end."

Chen Lin immediately understood why Brother Hua could not accept that Liu Jianming was still alive. Everyone has a moral ruler in his heart. For example, Chen Lin doesn’t like his own company’s movies and invites Japanese people. Liu Dehua also has his own principles when making movies. For example, if he doesn’t shoot bed scenes, he can play bad guys, but the bad guys he plays won’t end up being a good ending and will be punished.

"Brother Hua, we cannot simply treat Liu Jianming with good and evil in this film." Chen Lin explained with a smile: "The film is called Infernal Affairs. The Buddhist scriptures say that Wujian is the most painful of the eight hells. Whether it is Liu Jianming or Chen Yongren, they all live in an environment similar to the Hell of the Avici, and they are afraid that others will expose their identity in their dreams. They are all determined to leave this situation where they are not distinguishing right and wrong, leave the Hell of the Avici, and find themselves."

"Look, Chen Yongren has always wanted to restore his policeman's identity, but when the only police officer Huang who had his files was killed, Chen Yongren was extremely distressed. On the one hand, he and Police Officer Huang are both mentors and friends, and on the other hand, if Officer Huang dies, can his police officer be restored?"

"Looking at Liu Jianming again, is he going to have a good time? He also lives in pain and pain, otherwise there would be no situation similar to schizophrenia. Liu Jianming has been an undercover policeman for many years and has undergone reforms in his heart. He wants to be a good person, not a bad person. He looks in the mirror in his office and treats himself as Chen Yongren. He also tells Dr. Li in the mobile video that he wants to "catch Liu Jianming" because he desires to be a good person and denies his true identity."

"So, Brother Hua, you think Liu Jianming survived, but he was really happy. Maybe at that moment he hoped that he would die, and he would continue to endure the torture while he was alive."

"As the saying goes, the dead have passed away, but the living are in pain and dying."

Liu Dehua's face was moved when he heard the analysis, and he had a little more understanding of the character Liu Jianming.

Seeing that Brother Hua had completely grasped the essence of the character, Chen Lin smiled and said, "Brother Hua, let's talk about "Infernal Affairs" and there are sequels. I think the audience is very interested in the fate of Liu Jianming in the sequel. The script of the sequel will come out soon, and I will show you the first time after that."

"kindness."

Liu Dehua was convinced. The two of them talked about the details of the film preparations. Then the two brothers had dinner together and continued to talk about the script at the table.

While having dinner, Chen Lin received a call from a special friend. This special friend was the Thai princess Ubon Ratchathani Nara. Four years have passed and the princess is 22 years old. She invited him, a Chinese friend, to attend her birthday party.

Chen Lin agreed happily that he would go back to Changsha the next day to have a few days with his wife, and flew to Bangkok, Thailand a week later. (To be continued.)
