Why are there so many characters named A may and A B in Hong Kong movies?

May is a very common girl's name, which is simple and easy to remember. There is also a character named Mei in McDull's cartoon.

Generally, children are called BB in Cantonese. You can teach others A B to show intimacy. For example, some male and female friends call each other BB, which is similar to the address in Mandarin, and some are called A B by their families when they are young.

Although Hong Kong's mode of production, professional division of labor and organizational structure are more perfect than those of Chinese mainland and Taiwan Province Province of China, compared with Hollywood, it is still flexible and the degree of industrialization is far from strict and orderly.

First, according to Hollywood industry rules, once a movie is turned on, it needs to be done step by step, and the script cannot be changed or improved at will. Hong Kong-made film directors, such as Tsui Hark and Du Qifeng, have completely different shooting methods: on the premise of ensuring the timely delivery of films, they improvise, make changes while shooting, sometimes stop work, and sometimes catch up. This practice is exactly the most normal style and habit in the golden age of Hong Kong movies.

Second, although there are many films in Hong Kong that are famous for their creativity.

Third, Hong Kong films are characterized by fast shooting. In terms of how fast Hong Kong can shoot, in the 1960s, Hong Kong Cantonese opera films had a record of "seven fresh days", but in the 1990s, this record was almost tied. The film "94 13" directed by Wu Zhenyu only took 10 days, and the film "Mystery Woman" starring him only took 6,544 days.

The reason why Hong Kong films should be filmed quickly is mainly to catch up with the schedule, not only for the stars, but also for the cinema. When Hong Kong movies are booming, cinemas need a large number of Hong Kong movies to fill all the slots, especially during the Spring Festival and the Lunar New Year, and they need superstars.
