The Director of Music Department

The unexpected explosion of "Dark War" can be said to blow up countless people all at once.

Especially a group of directors on Hong Kong Island, you must know that Cao Meng is not actually the top spot among those directors of the older generation on Hong Kong Island.

But now, a "Dark War" directly sent Cao Meng straight to the sky!

"Dark War" may not be the highest-grossing film produced by the director of Hong Kong Island, but it was produced by the director of Hong Kong Island and the highest-grossing film among Hong Kong films.

Nearly 1 billion in the first week, the total box office visually, 2 billion almost did not run away.

This result, coupled with the "Dark War", is indeed the taste of the old port film, so Cao Meng naturally rose up!

But in fact, Cao Meng is not so satisfied.

What is the biggest reason for the success of "Dark War"?

If others don't know, can Cao Meng still not know?

Time Light and Shadow hopes that he can shoot the sequel of "Dark War", if he really wanders, then he must not say anything, shoot.

However, Cao Meng instead proposed the conditions for Wang Yifan to do the script for the sequel.

But other directors on Hong Kong Island don't think so.

The success of "Dark War" is more about praising Cao Meng himself, praising that Hong Kong movies are not dead, and touting the revival of Hong Kong movies.

Not to mention, for laymen, especially "Dark War" has really exploded, proving that Hong Kong movies do have a big market.

Therefore, some Hong Kong film directors touted "Dark War" as the starting point for the revival of Hong Kong films, and there is still a lot of market.

Don’t look at Hong Kong movies being ruined by those directors who make money, and a good hand of cards is sloppy, but the feelings of Hong Kong movies have always been there. If there is no "Dark War", maybe in a few years, Hong Kong movies Feelings will also be shoddy and shoddy. Hong Kong movies such as Gouweixianmen have lost popularity, but "The Dark War" is at this time, giving Hong Kong movies a renewed life.

In terms of finance, the stock prices of several film companies on Hong Kong Island are set sail!

In fact, they all show that the market is optimistic about Hong Kong movies!

The Hong Kong film has a very good feature, that is, the production cost is not too high, and the production cycle is relatively short.

"Dark Wars" is an example. Although this movie has two major actors of the Uranus-level on Hong Kong Island as the male protagonist, in fact, because the film does not have a big scene, the cost is actually not high.

The results of it?

The box office has properly passed 2 billion, don't make this money too good!

At the same time, the "Dark War" series has also been remembered by many people, especially when Cao Meng and Wang Yifan made it clear that they would not continue this series, and many Hong Kong film directors were moved by it.

Because many directors from Hong Kong Island have been inspired by "Undercover"!

They found that they really couldn't talk about how wonderful the plot of "Dark War" was. To put it bluntly, it was the old port movie.

But the double protagonist, and the plot of the **** and the thief meet each other, seems very popular.

When you think of domestic police and gangster movies, usually, the boundaries between black and white are very clear, so on the contrary, this kind of plot where soldiers and thieves are sympathetic to each other is more popular with the public.

They felt that they had reached the most eye-catching point of Hong Kong Island Police and Criminal Films, so they all geared up to start reviving Hong Kong films!

And "Dark War" is such an awesome movie that they have become a revival of Hong Kong movies, so the sequel is naturally very interesting.

And Times Light and Shadow also think so.

They also feel that the box office of "Dark War" is so high and the reputation is so good, then the sequel must be done.

Unfortunately, Wang Yifan has no interest in the script for the sequel.

A classic is a classic because it cannot be copied. If it can be copied, it is not a classic.

Is "Dark War" a classic?

At least in Wang Yifan's mind, "Dark War" is definitely a classic among Hong Kong Island police films.

Therefore, he really didn't want to be a dog, and he also believed that he didn't have the ability to come up with a better story than the story of "Dark War".

Times Light and Shadow wanted to make a sequel, but he didn't care and sold the copyright of the sequel to Times Light and Shadow.

Wang Yifan’s attitude indeed made the Times Light and Shadow a little hesitant. Wang Yifan sold the copyright of the sequel directly. Obviously, he was not optimistic about the sequel. Although the asking price was not low, it still meant this.

Dai Xinyue had some doubts about "Dark War", but when Chen Guangying thought that Wang Yifan was pretending to be noble, in their opinion, the sequel of "Dark War" is not as good as the first one, but it makes money. It is certainly guaranteed.

As a result, the copyright of the sequel to "Dark War" was quickly acquired by Times Light and Shadow at high prices.

And soon the sequel of "Dark War" was put on the agenda.

Because Cao Meng was unwilling to accept the collection of procedures, Times Guangying began to recruit directors from outside [Bequgex.com].

Soon, another Hong Kong director, Qin He, announced that he would take over "Dark War 2"!

And the script of "Dark War 2" was also handed over to the gold medal screenwriter of Hong Kong Island Tour!

The era of light and shadow strikes while the iron is hot. Taking advantage of the revival of Hong Kong movies brought by "Dark War" has not yet subsided, it announced the plan to launch the "Dark War" sequel!

Director Qin He, the veteran director of Hong Kong Island police film, and Hong Kong Island's gold screenwriter Trip Tour have joined hands again to create a sequel to "Dark War"!

After the news came out, the effect was quite good.

Many fans are optimistic about the sequel of "Dark War".

Of course, some people think that the first part of "Dark War" is already complete, and Hua Zi has passed away. If there is a sequel, then it must be another story, and it has nothing to do with "Dark War".

Moreover, the wonderful stalks and plots in "Dark War" are difficult to copy and surpass.

Especially the romantic encounter on the bus, it can be said that countless people regard it as a classic.

However, Times Light and Shadow still held a grand launch conference for the sequel to "Dark War"!

Wang Yifan also came to help the platform. There is no way. Although Wang Yifan is not interested in the sequel of "Dark War", but after all, he has severely slaughtered the light and shadow of the era because of the copyright to the sequel of "Dark War".

The full 200 million sequel copyright fees, although compared to the 2 billion box office of "Dark War", does not seem to be very high, but in fact, the price is really not low.

Therefore, Time Light and Shadow asked Wang Yifan to stand for the film at the launch conference of the "Dark War" sequel, and Wang Yifan agreed.

Beijing Century Hotel!

"Dark War" hasn't been released yet. It can be said to be popular. In addition, Time Light and Shadow is really big this time. Therefore, this "Dark War" sequel project launch conference still has hundreds of media outlets. reporter.

The entire conference hall is full of seats!

The leading actors of "Dark War", Chen Dahua, Li Qingyun, director Cao Meng, and screenwriter Wang Yifan, all came to the show.

The scene is naturally extremely spectacular!

Before the press conference began, Cao Mengyi talked with Wang Yifan.

"Why doesn't Director Cao accept this sequel to "Dark War"?" Wang Yifan is indeed a little curious, what exactly does Cao Meng think.

In fact, although he is not optimistic about the sequel of "Dark Wars", as long as the cost of this movie is controlled, the first film will be popular, and the second film will not lose money, at least, the box office on the books. , Should not be too low, maybe word of mouth will be worse, but the business aspect should not be too bad.

Therefore, Cao Meng is not willing to take this sequel, Wang Yifan is really surprised!
