A large number of media gathered at the entrance of Tseung Kwan O Cinema early in the morning.
"The name "Infernal Affairs" is so strange. Does any of you know what genre this movie is?"
"I only know that the word 'infinite' should come from the Buddhist scripture "Nirvana Sutra", which says that 'the worst of the eight hells is called the inexhaustible hell, which means suffering great suffering without interruption.' What is this movie about? I don¡¯t know the type.¡±
"It's related to Buddhist scriptures. Could it be a fantasy fantasy film?"
"It could also be a ghost movie."
I don¡¯t know who started it. More and more reporters joined the discussion. There was only one middle-aged man standing aside with his arms folded. He seemed to have no interest in the topic that everyone was talking about.
"Akai, did any of them guess correctly?" A familiar reporter came over and asked with a flattering look on his face.
The middle-aged man glanced at the guy who was trying to get close to him and said, "What, are you trying to trick me?"
"Are you still worried that I will steal your headlines?" The man said, taking out a cigarette and handing it over: "The opening ceremony will begin soon. We have such a good friendship, you just take it as a Give me a thorough examination!"
The middle-aged man lit the cigarette handed to him and took a puff.
"Come closer, I can only tell you one thing secretly."
The other party followed the instructions and leaned his ear closer, and the middle-aged man lowered his voice and said: "I'm sorry, actually I don't know either!"
"You" The other party finally realized that he had been tricked, and his face turned blue and white, which looked really ugly.
The middle-aged man has an innocent expression on his face. "What. You don't believe it?"
"I believe you, you big-headed devil!" The other party couldn't help but cursed. Then he said angrily: "As long as it's a movie related to Mr. Lin, when has your "Ming Pao" not got first-hand information?"
"You are right to say this, but this time it is really an exception. It may be that Mr. Lin decided to make this movie at the last minute, so "Ming Pao" did not receive any news Otherwise, I and I Do you still need to guard the scene so early?¡±
After listening to the middle-aged man¡¯s explanation, the reporter who came to inquire about the news was actually convinced. But of course he would not give up just because he wanted to inquire about information in such a lowly manner.
"Then you should have received some news. At least you must know what type this film is."
¡°Probably because he was a little annoyed by this person¡¯s pestering, and because he wanted to have a cigarette, the middle-aged man revealed a little bit of information.
¡°What, a gangster movie?¡±
The reporter who inquired about the news was stunned for a moment. He couldn't figure out why a gangster movie had a name from a Buddhist scripture.
"I can't say this, but I can tell you that Mr. Lin did not choose this name. As for who gave it to you, you will know in a while." The middle-aged man deliberately let it slip.
The reporter wanted to ask more questions. At this time, there was a rapid sound of trumpets from the other end of the crowd.
A black car flew away from the crowd and drove slowly towards the door.
The rear window was down. Liu Dehua poked his head out and waved hello to the reporters on both sides.
Before the reporters could come up to ask questions, the car window was rolled up and the car sped up and drove into the film and television city.
The whole process took less than half a minute, but a sharp-eyed reporter discovered that Liu Dehua was wearing a white T-shirt today.
At first, no one took this matter particularly seriously. More people were concerned about what kind of role Andy Lau would play in "Infernal Affairs" this time, but soon they stopped thinking so.
After Liu Dehua entered, he followed the other star in the film, Tony Leung Chaowei, to the scene. Before entering, he also asked the driver to slow down like Liu Dehua, rolled down the window and said hello to the reporters on both sides.
It was then that everyone discovered that Liang Chaowei was also wearing a white T-shirt that was exactly the same as Andy Lau.
Although most people have guessed that this may be a special arrangement by the crew of "Infernal Affairs", some people think that this may be a coincidence, or that Andy Lau and Tony Leung Chaowei made an appointment with each other.
When Huang Qiusen and Zeng Zhiwei also appeared in white clothes, everyone realized that today's power-on ceremony was very unusual.
Just when everyone was speculating, Lin Youlun's car also arrived.
The driver did not slow down at the door like the previous stars and starring actors, but drove straight in. The reporters on both sides could only vaguely see two people sitting in the back seat of the car.people.
There is no need to guess that one of them must be Lin Youlun, but the identity of the other person has aroused everyone's curiosity.
"Guess who is sitting next to Mr. Lin?"
"It must be a woman."
"Aren't you talking nonsense? Have you ever seen Mr. Lin attend an event with a man by his side?"
Everyone was talking a lot, and the names of Zhou Huimin and Wang Zuxian were mentioned many times, followed by people like Li Jiaxin and Yan Bixia, and someone even mentioned Lin Chiling.
"The person you mentioned just now is not the one sitting next to Mr. Lin, right?"
The middle-aged man did not answer the question. He folded his hands and watched Lin Youlun's car drive into the film and television city, his eyes thoughtful.
At the opening ceremony, Liu Dehua, who arrived early, was also asking about the matter with director Liu Weiqiang.
Liu Weiqiang, who was also dressed in white, shook his head. These arrangements today were directly ordered by Lin Youlun, but he did not explain the reasons. Liu Weiqiang was also very puzzled.
When Liang Chaowei came in, he greeted everyone, and then stood quietly aside. Huang Qiusen and Zeng Zhiwei, on the other hand, gathered together and whispered, looking very suspicious.
"It's boring to be idle, why don't we make a bet." It was Zeng Zhiwei who spoke.
Huang Qiusen and Zeng Zhiwei are not actually very familiar with each other, but when the other party approached him, he could easily refuse.
"Okay, tell me, what are you betting on?"
"Just because Mr. Lin will bring that pretty girl over today."
Huang Qiusen looked at Zeng Zhiwei speechlessly, "There are so many women around Mr. Lin, how can you guess this?"
"It's okay. You can choose multiple choices. You choose one and I choose one. Anyway, I will definitely guess the right one in the end."
As soon as Zeng Zhiwei finished speaking, Huang Qiusen said: "Okay, then I will go first, and I choose Lin Chiling!"
Zeng Zhiwei was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head like a rattle.
"No, no, you are cheating. Miss Lin is Mr. Lin's secretary. Basically, she will follow Mr. Lin wherever he goes. If you choose her, there is no way to proceed with the bet."
Huang Qiusen refused, "Why, you want to default on your debt!"
Zeng Zhiwei was about to retort when Lin Youlun¡¯s car had already arrived outside the opening ceremony.
Liu Weiqiang, Liu Dehua, and Liang Chaowei had already greeted them, and Zeng Zhiwei and Huang Qiusen had no choice but to put aside their disputes and follow them together.
The first person to get out of the car was Lin Chiling, who was sitting in the passenger seat. Huang Qiusen winked at Zeng Zhiwei proudly, which meant that he had won.
Zeng Zhiwei pretended not to see it, but silently prayed in his heart that Lin Youlun would definitely bring other female companions over.
The result made everyone dumbfounded. Getting out of the back seat of the car with Lin Youlun was a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt. He looked about fifty years old.
Seeing what this man was wearing, everyone present vaguely guessed why Lin Youlun asked everyone to wear white clothes today, including himself, but what shocked everyone more was Lin Youlun's attitude towards this man.
Very respectful, as if you were treating your elders.
With Lin Youlun's current reputation and status, even if he met big guys like Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai, he would not necessarily have such a reaction. For a while, speculation about who this person was became everyone's consensus. Confuse.
"Come, let me introduce to you. This is the White Dragon King who I invited from Thailand to preside over today's power-on worship ceremony!"
When Lin Youlun said this, the few people standing in front of him realized and hurriedly said hello to the White Dragon King.
Liu Weiqiang has made movies under Lin Youlun more than once or twice, and he also knows Lin Youlun's character very well. In the past, Lin Youlun was not very enthusiastic about turning on the phone to worship gods. Why did he suddenly become serious this time?
It¡¯s hard to ask questions in person, but Liu Weiqiang kept an eye on it. When Lin Youlun accompanied the White Dragon King into the arena, Liu Weiqiang deliberately fell behind.
"Miss Lin, this Master White Dragon King"
"Director Liu wants to ask Mr. Lin why he invited Master Zhou here, right?"
Liu Weiqiang nodded.
"Master Zhou was met by Mr. Lin in Thailand this year. It is said that he is very knowledgeable and can help people guide Mingjin. Otherwise, as you know, Mr. Lin didn't believe in this before."
This is Lin ChilingAs soon as he said it, Liu Weiqiang's doubts disappeared a bit, but there were still some things he couldn't figure out.
"Director Liu should have read the movie script, right?"
Lin Zhiling mentioned this irrelevantly, but Liu Weiqiang was confused.
"Master Zhou came up with the name "Infernal Affairs" with his help. I heard Mr. Lin say that when he first started writing this script, he had trouble writing it. He obviously had this story in his mind, but he just couldn't write it. This kind of thing has never happened before. He had never encountered it before, but later he met Master Zhou, who pointed out to him that the name of the movie was not good. After changing the name, the script was written smoothly."
Liu Weiqiang would definitely not believe such a mysterious explanation if it came from someone else, but if it came from Lin Zhiling's mouth, he had to believe it.
