It is actually very contradictory to the fact that movies are born to being rated as the seventh art.

Because art has always been high and low, film production requires a lot of money. It is inevitable that it needs to be loved by the public through broadcasting, thereby recovering costs and even making profits.

No one wants his movies, even the most selfish director, to be liked by the public and sold at a good price.

But the problem arises again. What the public likes is always the most popular thing, and popular things are contrary to the artistic nature of the movie.

This is the contradiction.

Usually, after gaining commercial pursuits, great directors will turn to artistic, or after becoming artistic, they will try to produce commercially comparable works.

It's normal, people always have to pursue it.

Feng Xiaogang is such a director.

The original IP attribute is Feng's comedy. He probably feels that he is old or has experienced it. The people who suppressed him died and quit. He may feel that if he doesn't do some works on celebrity film history, he will be sorry for himself.

So he did it!

"1942", a good work, shows that Feng Xiaogang has a strong historical sensitivity and a sense of responsibility as a great director!

Few directors are willing to make such films that do not please the audience.

Jiang Wen once did it and filmed the movie "The Devils Are Coming", but unfortunately, he was banned from filming.

Zhang Yimou has also done this, filmed "To Live" and the entire movie was banned!

Nowadays, most directors want to make a lot of money, and they are thinking about the box office of movies. Especially when Zhang Yimou is also rooted in a commercial masterpiece, there is someone in the Chinese film industry who is willing to tell all directors that movies are not just commercial movies!

If Feng Xiaogang walked along that road, then his actions deserve everyone's respect, and he deserved the word "Master of Movie".

Unfortunately, he didn't. What did he do after losing money in "1942"?

He immediately turned to produce "Private Customization". To put it bluntly, he immediately returned to his most familiar urban light comedy route.

People who are thieves are always thieves!

Last year's "Old Cannon" made Feng Xiaogang completely "aware". What's there to be afraid of?

I am Master Liu!

So what if you lose?

At least it proves that the man is amazing!

What I'm going to do now is a drama, not a comedy!

"I Am Not Pan Jinlian" was produced in this context.

...

Shen Lin's own IP power is enough to allow him to not go through the promotion of the variety shows "Happy Camp" and "Everyday Upward". As long as he announces the release time of "The Golden Captain" on Weibo, it can be guaranteed that it will definitely lead to a movie-watching craze.

This is also the focus of this publicity strategy.

Several actors arranged several variety shows, while Shen Lin arranged several high-end college roadshows!

Hua Normal University is one of the stops, and it is also the first stop!

It is obvious that they want to make some work with the help of Huayang Normal University falling into a whirlpool of public opinion recently. It doesn’t matter. This is a win-win result. For Huayang Normal University, it can whitewash its condemnation caused by the inappropriate remarks of a certain associate professor. For Shen Lin, with the help of this public opinion, he can also promote "The Touching School Captain".

For movies, there is no so-called non-promotion at all. No matter how awesome the director or even awesome the works need to be promoted!

Before the release of "Avatar" directed by Cameron, Twentieth Century Fox's promotional investment was US$120 million!

Cameron is like this, let alone coming!

Central China Normal University, Chen Lin’s speech continued.

"Many people think that I don't like Hong Kong and Taiwan actors because their line skills or acting skills are not as good as those of our 6-year-old actors. I have said that myself, but it is not the case. The main reason is that Hong Kong and Taiwan actors are generally more expensive than us. Take Peng Yuyan as an example. Do you know how much I asked him for? It's close to six million, or because I am the director!"

"Of course, Peng Yuyan himself is still very good, and he is one of the more dedicated actors I have come into contact with."

"The reason I found Peng Yuyan was because I wanted to tell the audience that this movie is definitely a movie worth watching by all Chinese people from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the Three Lands."

"Many people say that "The Chronicles of Tomb Raiders" is a novel about how to rob tombs. They are right. The content is indeed tomb robbers, but it involves many folk legends. In fact, I know nothing about to rob tombs. Many of the information I have read from the library, including the tools, formation distribution used by tombs, and the search and pointing to the dragon are all derived from ancient Feng Shui."

"In addition to making up for the gap in domestic films about adventure themes, I want to spread things like Feng Shui and formations that condense ancient Chinese wisdom to abroad."

"Okay, now everyone can ask questions freely!"

Chen Lin put down the microphone in his hand.

"Director Chen, do you think it is inappropriate to call actors by actors? Also, do you think that the entire school can be implicated because of an inappropriate remark from a certain professor. Is this statement too far-fetched?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a classmate sitting in the front row stood up, looking a little excited.

It's understandable.

For everyone, your alma mater can complain about it casually. Once someone says something bad, you feel that you are insulting your existence!

The entire network of Fan Bingbing's incident was filled with voices targeting Hua Normal University.

At first, only Fan's brainless fans attacked, but later a bunch of big Vs led the rhythm. In addition, the associate professor's Weibo did have a lot of insulting the performers. Then the crowd went up together and pointed a certain head at the associate professor, and also aimed at the very innocent Hua Normal University.

"You sit down first, don't be so excited."

Chen Lin stood up from the chair.

"The word "actor" was used to call artists in ancient times. Everyone knew the ranks and grades, and they also knew that "actors are unrighteous, and condemned to be ruthless". From this level, it is indeed a bit too much to call an actor an actor! After all, since 1949, our country has determined that career equality has been established, and every profession should be respected. Therefore, the associate professor said that Fan is an actor, which is definitely a discriminatory element, but..."

"However, there must be some celebrities who like me. You like me, you can call me Director Chen, hate me, or call me a cheating audience money secretly. I don't care. Fan can accurately find that Weibo from so many Weibo posts on the Internet, and fight back so beautifully. The whole thing is dramatic, and it can be made a movie!"

"As for what you said, because of the inappropriate remarks of a certain professor, it involves the entire school, and even all the teachers and students in the school, I think this is logically fine. Don't rush to deny it. You can simply hate the idol itself because of a certain brainless fan. I believe that you can understand that netizens hate the entire school because of a certain professor, and thus deny the entire school. Individuals always represent the collective!"

"Director Chen, who do you think is right and who is wrong in this matter?"
