"The Detective" finally meets everyone this summer. It is not easy to produce such a film in the Hong Kong film market that continues to be sluggish. "Detective" is the sequel to "Detective" and "Blind Detective"?

" Detective vs. " is finally available to everyone this summer. It is not easy to produce such a film in the Hong Kong film market that continues to be sluggish. The director is the familiar Wei Jiahui, and the starring actor is also the actor Liu Qingyun. There are also familiar faces such as Cai Zhuoyi and Raymond Lam. Such a lineup is really strong, and it is the older generation of Hong Kong filmmakers who support today's Hong Kong films.

"Detective" is the sequel to "Detective" and "Blind Detective"? Say yes or no? To put it bluntly, there are many routines and ideas that are similar, and it is a recreation of a series. If you say no, you can tell a completely new story with a different plot and its own novelty. Of course, this view is also a matter of benevolence and wisdom. As long as the fans like it, nothing else matters.

Hong Kong movies have not made much progress in recent years. To put it more seriously, they are in decline, and filmmakers are also in decline. After the older generation of filmmakers, there is no rise of new forces. Sooner or later, the predecessors will have to retreat. So who will carry the banner of Hong Kong films? Is there still a way out for Hong Kong films? Why are Hong Kong movies in decline?

From the perspective of economic development, Hong Kong has always been at the forefront of the world. It is one of the Four Asian Tigers , and its economic development has always been ahead of the mainland. When Hong Kong was in full swing, the mainland was still in the early stages of reform and opening up, and Western powers had just lifted their blockade on mainland China.

The economic base determines the superstructure and determines the status of Hong Kong movies. Hong Kong movies were in line with the world. At that time, various advanced technologies were reflected in Hong Kong movies. Mainland movies are relatively backward, so Hong Kong movies are unique in the mainland. Hong Kong movies at that time really opened our eyes, and we worshiped Hong Kong movies and stars.

However, with the rapid development of mainland China's economy, it has integrated with the world, especially in many fields, it has led the world. Economic prosperity will also bring about the development of the film industry, and a large amount of capital and talents will be introduced. The concentration of funds and talents will inevitably produce countless excellent results. The creativity of the film, the application of new technologies, and the selection of talents are unparalleled. Moreover, mainland China has the largest film market in the world, which is enough to absorb the best resources. With the rise and modernization of mainland films, excellent works and attractive directors and actors have emerged one after another.

Against the backdrop of the high quality and quantity of mainland films, every work can be said to be world-class competitive. So how do Hong Kong films develop? There are not enough talents and funds. Without a large amount of resource investment, it is impossible to produce competitive works. It is not so much the decline of Hong Kong films as it is that mainland films are too competitive.

How to develop Hong Kong movies in the future? There is no doubt that it means embracing the motherland and being integrated into it. Funds and talents flow to the places with the largest markets, investing in mainland films, and film talents come to the mainland to develop.

The older generation of Hong Kong filmmakers are still supporting Hong Kong movies because of their special feelings for Hong Kong movies. After all, they have witnessed the glory of Hong Kong movies. But we also need to face reality. At the end of an era, no one can stop the pace of progress.
