I really don't want to fight with gods

Chapter 1363 The Power of "Shadow" Sweeping the World
But in fact, "Atonement" shocked the entire mainland.

This is also an unprecedented movie premiered by two big countries on the other side of the ocean.

Director Zhang showed Yi Mian in Pingjing.

In fact, the trend of thought in the mainland at the moment is that the moon must be round in foreign countries, and it is our problem that we must reflect on everything we encounter, otherwise why would we live so poorly.

Especially in the cultural world.

Therefore, including Lao Zhang's previous films, they all focus on exposing darkness, backwardness, and ignorance. This kind of film is also particularly popular in overseas film festivals.

Those of them who found the trick to take the overseas awards route all shot like this.

Then a bunch of people who eat the imperial food will either shoot some fake and empty things to fool things, or make money in a completely vulgar way.

Basically nothing to see.

Even "Love Returns to Shanghai" and "Meet You Around the Corner" are far ahead of low-budget films that rely on scripts to win and shoot well.

This time it premiered in Pingjing, Shanghai and other places, and then rolled out to various provinces, prefectures and cities, so-called "a blockbuster movie with an overseas investment of 5 million yuan", which naturally has great market appeal.

It is not bad to have a budget of several million to make a movie in the mainland at the moment.

Five hundred million!

In fact, from the time of filming, a solid investment of [-] to [-] million yuan has been made in the industry for various links such as Fuhuadao and group performances.

Because of the name of overseas investment, all the equipment is the latest and best model from Hollywood, and many experts from HK and Hollywood come to help.

Let the level of Lao Zhang's technical team be improved, and every link will definitely be among the best in the country.

Later, I spent a lot of money on post-production, plus the current overseas publicity costs, this number is definitely not bragging.

Except for the total population, audiences across the country have basically never heard of the use of the unit of [-] million.

They were all shocked, and saw the names of Lao Zhang, An Ning, Yi Mian, Sister Li, and Jing Xiaoqiang, and even Li Ji, a supporting role, was put on the promotional posters.

Theaters everywhere must be packed to the brim.

Then the opening war scene will definitely shock everyone's audiovisual.

From the 80s with a ticket price of 300 cents, which had a record of [-] billion movie viewings, to the current bleak movie market, the invasion of Hong Kong and Taiwan video is definitely the main reason.

But it is definitely not because pirated video halls are cheap.

but content.

For various reasons, these hot gunfight movies and romance movies that cannot be played on the big screen are all pirated versions.

Under such a strong sensory stimulation, who would watch those crude or fake domestic movies.

But this time "Atonement" fully embodies the charm of the movie.

Compared with those crammed into a messy small hall, the largest TV screen is no more than 29 inches to play severely worn video tapes. Even a rural open-air movie screen is naturally much larger, not to mention that the sound speakers of a county-level movie theater are better than those of the TV. Small caliber is much stronger.

The impact of the audio-visual feast in "Taiping Wheel" last year was not so strong.

From the moment the quiet river surface was broken, the sound of bubbles penetrating into the river, the puffing sound of the bullet hitting the human body, the deafening explosion, the horror of the mud being lifted up and thrown directly on the face...

The bloody battle scene at close range, so many close-ups and follow-up shots, gave the audience a shock that they had never had before.

There was controversy when it was submitted for trial.

In 20 years, there may be debates about whether this is beautifying the national army. At this time, the debate is whether it will scare the audience, make people afraid of war, and dare not defend their homes and the country.

So in that era, civil war films rarely saw this kind of close-up personal realism. Even if there were a few excellent works describing the Vietnam War, they were silently refrigerated.

Little do they know that only by truly facing the cruelty can they understand the preciousness of the country.

Isn't the hero in the movie just holding the broken jade bracelet again and again, never regretting the love that has not yet started, and holding the rifle firmly with trembling hands to defend the lover behind him.

Surprisingly, the audience was not attracted by the goddess rushing out of the water.

All that is remembered is such a real war!
In contrast, those popular Hong Kong and Taiwan gunfight films are simply child's play.

It's not that the gasoline drums and cars that explode and overturn the roof are called fiery and intense.

The cruelty of harvesting a large area of ​​life at any time shown in the war scenes of the established system is the most frightening.

And if you let go, you have to take it back.

The war turns people into ghosts, but after the war, the hero holds the hot noodle soup in trembling hands and is covered with a blanket. The feeling of dying makes tears drip into the enamel jar.

Looking up at the outline of the city of Shanghai in the distance.

No complaints.

It turns out that we can also make this kind of good movie that shocks people's hearts and faces the soul directly!

If "Taiping Wheel" shows the love of ordinary people when disaster strikes, this "Atonement" shows that there is no country and no home. Everyone is a member of society. Greed, indulgence, and loss can only end up with Entire country.

The cruel war in the first half is to highlight the second half, which is still singing the flowers in the backyard, interweaving the story of the final salvation of the soul in the war.

Lao Zhang is so thieves, the reason why he has been resting for the past two years is that he was inspired by Jing Xiaoqiang on the one hand, and the domestic censorship has gone from one extreme to the other. Someone reminded him not to shoot that kind of dark side stuff .

So from filming to release, he put Jing Xiaoqiang's banner in front.

It was written by Jing Xiaoqiang, produced by Jing Xiaoqiang's domestic film company, invested by Jing Xiaoqiang from overseas, and promoted overseas by Jing Xiaoqiang.

During the publicity, it also emphasized that the whole play was conceived by Jing Xiaoqiang, and I was only responsible for the embodiment.

But just like Jing Xiaoqiang has "copied" so many movies, he is familiar with [-] Tang poems and can chant without writing poems, he is more or less making appropriate adjustments for each movie.

In order to copy the classic war scenes from "Saving Private" to "Atonement", I did not hesitate to rearrange the order of the whole play.

Even if Lao Zhang got the same script, the emotional direction of the shooting may be different from the original.

After all, this is different from commercial blockbusters such as "Fast and Furious" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" that Li An and Lao Yu got, and it has a lot of family and country significance in it.

For example, Huang Feihong filmed by Lao Yu is much higher than others in terms of character conception.

The same is true of Lao Zhang, he is very good at discovering righteousness from the characters.

The original work of "Atonement" is war to set off love, and his filming is love to set off war.

From the individual to see the feelings of family and country.

In this sense, it is much more profound than the director of the original work.

However, filming this type of film in the mainland's propaganda environment is notoriously high-risk, so many talents would rather shoot bad things, because they can make money by not causing trouble.

But there are always people who dance in chains because someone needs to tell these stories.

In the environment of advanced characters who always preach that they will not go home for several years, the hero will also be afraid, timid, and hesitant. This is not true.

But it is precisely this kind of brilliance of humanity that firmly grasps the resonance of the audience.

Lao Zhang cleverly interweaves the hero's experience of war scenes with his wronged prison life.

It is self-evident who is making the atonement in the end.

Sublimation.

But the literary and art circles are easy to catch all kinds of braids and attacks. Lao Zhang pushes all of them on Jing Xiaoqiang. I am a technical worker, and I am responsible for shooting the things he conceived. It is no problem to talk to me about technology, details, and acting skills. , don't talk to me about the meaning.

Last time "Taiping Wheel" ended up being screenwriter Mu Chunlei, and Jing Xiaoqiang only provided jobs such as singing the theme song and producing.

This time he was finally pushed to the front of the stage with great fanfare, emphasizing that he wrote the script and even supervised the direction of the entire film.

So the audience was all excited!
It's been a long time since I heard Xiaoqiang release a new song or a new drama in the mainland, so I wrote such a good script!

Lao Zhang directed wonderfully!

Emi did a great job!

Miss Li did a great job!

An Ning did a great job!

Inexplicably, amidst the reflections of kneeling people, a sense of cultural self-confidence arises spontaneously.

Reflect on a hammer!

If you are poor, you must be obedient, and you must admit that everything has failed.

We can tell good stories like that too.

Even if some people immediately miss this is the glory of the national army, trying to bring public opinion to another angle.

The audience only cares that this is our own, ordinary people like each of us, who will never hesitate to defend their home and country in the face of war.

Don't talk about so many messy things, the venue has been full since it was released!
All the movie theaters laughed.

So a few days later, "Haijiao" was released, and under the title of screenwriter Jing Xiaoqiang, it naturally attracted a large number of audiences to the theater.

As a result, this time I finally encountered Waterloo, and most people felt a sense of astonishment after watching it, what is it all about!

It's because Tianhai's appearance in this movie is too ugly!

Anyway, in China, it is still at the primary level where a movie star must be handsome and beautiful.

Even if you can tolerate a few male protagonists who are not so handsome, they must be ugly, but the female protagonist is absolutely not allowed to be so ugly!

Lao Zhang’s quasi-documentary about rural teachers in the previous life gradually changed this situation by using amateur actors as the leading actors, and it didn’t turn ugly like this!

At the moment, the domestic public doesn't even have words that can accurately define the status of this heroine.

It is quite common sense to describe her as having polio.

Most people can only wonder, can psychopaths also act in movies?

This is the part of our culture that should be reflected. We do discriminate against many people with disabilities, and even do not recognize some mental and physical diseases.

All abnormal people are classified as neuropathy and cannot appear in the mainstream sight.

The overall backward state of psychological diagnosis and treatment makes it difficult for many people to accept this movie.

Tianhai really portrayed this woman with congenital arthritis, limping legs and stooped waist perfectly.

If it was Sister Li and An Ning, who are already well-known in China, the top-ranking actresses would be able to make people sigh that their acting skills are amazing.

Tianhai, such a little-known foreign actress.

Naturally, it will not stir up waves in the mainland.

Therefore, Jing Xiaoqiang's rare works finally encountered a fiasco in the domestic market.

After only two or three days of hasty release, various theaters still focused on showing "Atonement", until later "Fast and Furious" entered the mainland market as a Hollywood blockbuster.

"Cape of the Sea" even disappeared without even a wave.

But on the other hand, Tianhai is in the focal basin, so all the audience can only be amazed!
The girl we are familiar with, Ji Quan, who is the male face of the girl, is in charge. Is there such a touching side when acting as a woman? !
