Chapter 150 I'm Just a Director
Speaking of which, the talk about domestic movies is really interesting.
You can go back and sort it out.
About 11 years ago, many people deliberately believed that American movies were the best movies in the world, and only Jia Zhangke in China could make good movies.
But in 2014 and 2015, especially when "The Old Friends of Mountains and Rivers" was released, there began to appear large-scale criticism of the sixth generation of filmmakers led by Jia Zhangke, believing that their films overly please Western film critics in terms of content and form, and were films that flatter European and American.
15 years later, the three movies were launched, "Taking Tiger Mountain", "Operation Mekong", "Wolf Warrior 2", and especially "Wolf Warrior 2", and the whole nation fell into a state of madness, and even no voices criticizing "Wolf Warrior 2" were allowed.
Because its theme is to praise the strength of the motherland.
If you say "Wolf Warrior 2" is a bad movie, you are a counter-revolutionary, a cent, and a bad pen. Go and lick your American dad!
All right!
The motherland has become stronger and the national pride has increased unprecedentedly!
However, we are a great country, can't we stand any criticism?
That's just a movie, is it a big deal that concerns the national economy and people's livelihood?
We once laughed at Koreans, saying that they were arrogant and typical self-inflation. They did not welcome Kim Ki-duk, because his movies were typical criticisms. He criticized everything. Kim Ki-duk has almost become a collectively excluded by the film industry in South Korea. He was isolated and helpless and could not even find investment in filming a new film...
Does it look very much like Jia Zhangke?
Chief Jia is a bit overly addicted to the past. The most common appearance of his movies is the joys and sorrows of small characters, and he uses realistic techniques to expose various contradictions and problems in the development of Chinese society's modernization and globalization...
With such a large Chinese film market, can't we tolerate Jia Zhangke?
OK, I'm in the water word count...
...
"First of all, I am a Chinese, and secondly, I am the director. I think the first audience of my movies must be Chinese. As for the works that influence the world, the theme is too huge. I will not consider shooting such a movie until I was at least forty!"
Xu Hui smiled and answered the reporter's question.
"But you said on Weibo yesterday that you also want to win the award. If you follow your logic and simply shoot movies that meet the audience's aesthetic taste, it will be difficult for you to do it!"
The reporter of "Southern Weekend", well, is the reporter who is deeply influenced by public intellectuals!
"When the marketization matures and more and more commercial films appear in the market, and the audience has further stated their requirements, I will consider transforming and making some in-depth movies."
“Transformation?”
"Of course, you don't think I'll make commercial films for the rest of my life!"
"Then do you think China should implement a more democratic system now? For example, the multi-d system..."
"I am just a director. I don't understand political matters, but I think people should think independently and not be fooled by online remarks so easily. There are so many people in China, and the remarks of one or two million people cannot represent public opinion. It's almost the same to expand this number by a hundred times!"
There is no doubt that the reporter mentioned the two arguments about "world citizens" and "nationalism" online. By the way, he also mentioned Xu Hui's ideas on existing politics.
Fortunately, I brought a witness with me.
"Yes, I can prove that the director really just asked the senior sister to stand up, then looked her up and down, and then decided on the role..."
Fat Di, who was suddenly named, was a little panicked, but he still told the audition that night.
But, her statement is a bit ambiguous...
