The Director of Music Department

Different cultures determine different perceptions.

The final rooftop showdown in "Infernal Affairs".

It is being staged at the Chinese Theater in Los Angeles in North America.

But this paragraph is regarded as a classic showdown by the Chinese.

Placed here in North America, Cao Meng and others were disappointed to find that there was a noise at the scene.

"baffling!"

"What a strange thought!"

"Good guy? What kind of guy is he?"

"It's strange, why is Liu so stupid?"

Yes, this segment is considered a classic rooftop duel by the Chinese people.

Many ordinary viewers and movie fans of the old and beautiful, but all of them are a little confused.

They don't quite understand what this paragraph really means.

No, it should be said that they understand the meaning, but they are very puzzled.

Of course, film critics and media people, as well as a small number of movie fans, are still fascinated by it.

But after all, it is only a small part.

However, after "Infernal Affairs", Chen Yongren was shot headshot, which caused an exclamation in the theater.

But on the whole, Cao Meng and others have lost their previous excitement.

Some are just worried.

What will the audience's performance be like for a movie that can sell well?

Obviously it won't be like this.

Because when "Infernal Affairs" was screened in China, almost everyone on the scene was extremely involved.

But here, obviously, those fans are not very involved in the plot of the movie.

Some of them can go to the toilet, some can chat, and some can make complaints.

This is definitely not the case with a true classic.

The situation is not so good.

The people at Ari Media are also a little worried.

The grand premiere is over.

Although there was still applause at the scene, no matter whether Cao Meng, Chen Qingyun, Chen Dahua, or the people from Ari Media or Ari Film and Television Distribution Company could not laugh.

Sometimes, the reaction of the audience at the premiere does not represent the true level of the film, but it can also represent something.

"Congratulations, "Infernal Affairs" is a good movie!"

"Congratulations, this is a very good work!"

"Congratulations..."

Although I was congratulated and praised by a crowd of old and beautiful people.

But Cao Meng and others can only force a smile.

Because the praise of these people cannot be said to be worthless, but it is not what they want.

They would rather be scolded by these people, as long as the fans boast and give real warm applause, that is what they want most!

Because the box office has never been controlled by film critics or the media, but by ordinary fans.

But obviously, the response from fans at the premiere was not overwhelming.

This makes them seem to have a haze on their heads.

Waiting is torment for Cao Meng and others.

Of course, it was mainly because of the faces of all beings at the premiere that Cao Meng had no previous confidence in his heart.

For Cao Meng, this time can be said to be his best opportunity.

In fact, it is not to blame for Cao Meng's expansion, mainly because the reputation of "Infernal Affairs" in the domestic sector has been elevated too high.

It is also known as the most classic Hong Kong Island police film.

Then, the popularity of the film by several Hollywood companies may be considered hype by others, but Cao Meng has repeatedly confirmed that it is true.

Therefore, naturally let him have an inflated psychology.

Not to mention Cao Meng, domestic movie fans also feel that "Infernal Affairs" is a good trip to North America.

After all, the news given by Ari is so good, there is no bad news at all.

"Sure enough, I'm still swollen." Cao Meng laughed ridiculously.

Chen Dahua shook his head and comforted: "Director Cao doesn't need to be so pessimistic, right?"

Chen Qingyun also smiled and said: "Even if it can't be a big hit, but I think there should be some box office? After all, there are indeed some audiences who like this movie very much."

Cao Meng smiled bitterly and said: "No, what you think is too simple. How much resources did Ari invest in the movie "Infernal Affairs"? And most viewers in our country think that this movie, if not surprising, You should be able to get good results here."

"But what about the result? We all misestimated cultural differences and underestimated the barriers brought about by cultural differences." Cao Meng said, shaking his head.

"But it's always true that the Hollywood companies want to buy scripts?" Chen Dahua asked.

"It's true, but what about that? I was stunned before. The Hollywood film company saw "Infernal Affairs" and wanted to adapt it to the US version of "Infernal Affairs." In fact, it explained the problem. "Cao Meng is not a new director after all, he is an old director himself.

It's just that he was blinded by the feedback of those flowers, which caused him to start to swell.

Looking forward to becoming famous in one fell swoop, he became an international famous director.

But now, think about it carefully.

Hollywood companies want the right to adapt "Infernal Affairs", which in itself speaks for the problem.

"If "Infernal Affairs" is really good for them, do they still need to be adapted? It means that they are only interested in the mode and plot of the film "Infernal Affairs", not the movie itself."

"They probably discovered it a long time ago. This movie is a film with pure Chinese characteristics. It is not suitable for North America at all. However, the structure and settings of the movie itself are very in line with their appetites. Therefore, they would like Interested in the adaptation rights of this film.” Cao Meng explained.

"It's Wang Yifan. I guess he had expected it. I am still complacent. I have complained about his unwillingness to come to North America for publicity. But I don't know that in the eyes of others, I am a clown." Cao Meng Said with a wry smile.

"Isn't it?" Both Chen Dahua and Chen Qingyun were a little surprised by Cao Meng's words.

"That's not enough? Actually, if you think about it, Wang Yifan's attitude towards this movie will be known. He should have known for a long time that this movie is not suitable for North America."

"Otherwise, why would he tell Ari Media that it should be released in China first, and then in North America a week later? In the past, we just thought that he wanted to make North American word-of-mouth box office and give "Infernal Affairs" the most exhausted potential. A little excitement, but now that I want to come, people have expected it a long time ago."

"The reason for making such a request is just to minimize the impact of the film's failure in North America on the country! Because at this time, the domestic reputation of "Infernal Affairs" can no longer be influenced in North America." Cao Meng said.

Chen Dahua and Chen Qingyun looked at each other.

Think about it, it's really scary to think carefully.

If Wang Yifan knew that "Infernal Affairs" would be difficult to make a difference in North America, then it would be really terrible.

And think about some things that everyone has neglected before, such as why Wang Yifan agreed to release "Infernal Affairs" to Ari?

After all, Huaxin and Ari are their biggest competitors. If Ari's globalization strategy is successful, it is actually Huaxin who will be most affected.
