This director is very reliable

Chapter 176 "Face to Face"

Chapter 176 "Face to Face" Again (Part [-])
Chen Jing has a different opinion...

This year's situation is special, and the share of imported Hollywood movies has doubled. Under this premise, of course, more roadshows must be done!
In addition to building a good relationship with theaters, the road show also pays more attention to the rewards from the media.

Inviting celebrities to discuss across borders is really effective.

The media will look at the situation and report, but if there is any breaking point, it will be on the front page.

Chen Jing continued: "We have invited Luo Yonghao, Ma Dong, Cui Yongyuan, Han Han and Guo Jingming this time!"

Shen Changlin was surprised and asked back: "They agree to be on stage at the same time?"

Chen Jing miraculously knew which two he was talking about, and shook her head: "That's not true..."

"Then kick Guo Jingming away, I have nothing to do with him!"

"Then who will replace the station in Chengdu? Celebrities from Sichuan...how about we find Li Yuchun?"

Shen Changlin rolled his eyes: "Not to mention that she didn't have any contact with us, do you think she came when you were looking for her?"

Chen Jing spread her hands: "Then who are you talking about?"

Shen Changlin pondered for a while: "It doesn't have to be a celebrity, I really like Dou Wentao, let's add him!"

"Wen Tao... that's fine too, I'll send out the invitation!"

……

The program team arranged by CCTV this time is still "Face to Face"...

It's just that the host has been replaced by Dong Qian...

This has been passed down from Aunt Ni: Although you lost your son, old mother, he died for the people. How do you feel at this moment?
In fact, this is a news report. When interviewing children with leukemia, the details are "What do their parents think? Seeing the children's smiling faces, what do the parents think? What about the children's illness and treatment expenses?" '

Viewers love watching this!

Fortunately, Shen Changlin was only doing a movie interview this time.

Still under the shit-yellow light, Shen Changlin sat across from Dong Qian. He greeted Dong Qian first, and then got to the point: "Berlin has won the prize. Do you feel any different?"

"I feel okay, the main team is very happy..."

"Berlin Film Festival, is it just okay?"

Shen Changlin thought for a while, and then said: "I'm not the kind of director who pursues pure art, and the narrative method of "Search" is also commercialized. We only went there when we were invited by the Berlin Film Festival, and we didn't apply for an award. Hopefully, winning an award will be a pleasant surprise, but it will also make it difficult to do domestic publicity!"

"It's not easy to do?"

"Because of the inherent influence of the public, the films that can win awards at European film festivals are all those obscure types..."

In fact, Shen Changlin wanted to say 'skimming the ball', but this is CCTV, so many things cannot be said directly.

Back then, the works of the sixth generation were sold as pirated copies in China, and the people who bought them were because the cover made people more impulsive...

"Are you worried that the audience won't accept it?"

Shen Changlin nodded: "Yes! Don't talk about the audience, even if I hear about a movie that won an award, I will subconsciously feel that this movie has nothing to do with me, so I won't watch it!"

"Why is there such a thing?"

"This is about our predicament. The three major international film festivals in Europe and the Oscars in Hollywood constitute the two extreme mirror images of the Chinese film itself. They completely constitute the imagination of Chinese films. International, and the internal division of this international is precisely the internal division of Chinese film itself.”

"Can you be more specific?"

"We are industrializing film, and we advertise the American film market, but European films promote art, the market and art, two seemingly parallel things..."

"But there are also many art films in the United States!"

"Yeah, but they didn't do well at the box office!"

Dong Qian snorted for a while, and then smiled half-smile: "I found that you value the box office very much!"

"Of course, the box office represents the audience's approval. I always think that movies are the seventh art because of the audience's acceptance."

After a pause, Shen Changlin added: "Especially this year, the number of Hollywood imported films has doubled. As a Chinese filmmaker, of course we have to fight back. The box office data is the most intuitive!"

Dong Qian glanced over her glasses, reflecting a ray of wisdom: "I don't quite understand why everyone is so against Hollywood. As an audience, I think it's a good thing that more good movies are released."

"Then go ask those film festivals why they divide films by country name!"

……

There is a group of people who feel that 'Chinese movies' and 'X country movies' are political concepts.

They feel that the world only needs one movie center, the United States.

If you are capable, go to Hollywood. If you can withstand the test of Hollywood, you will go to the world. If you can’t stand it, you will come back.

Also give an example to Cameron, if he still stays in Canada, it is estimated that he is still a truck driver now...

These people either don't understand movies, or they have other goals~
Because this point of view can be grafted into any field!
Movies are highly condensed cultures. Except for the powerful United States, it is still difficult to reject the concept of "national movies" at the government level of other countries. This is not an isolated case in China. France and South Korea have also spared no effort in supporting their film industries!
On a larger scale, as long as there are differences in geographical climate and environment, cultural differences will continue, so the concepts of "Chinese movies" and "American movies" will always exist...

……

The topic shifted to "Search".

"What kind of movie is Search?"

"Talk about how online violence and human flesh searches can destroy a person!"

"Internet violence?"

"Ok!"

"How did you come up with this subject?"

"I have always liked Lu Xun. I think the elements of Internet violence are like steamed buns dipped in human blood, but now the bloody steamed buns have disappeared, replaced by more keyboards, cameras, and twisted souls hidden behind the screen. They Regardless of the truth of the matter, I just want to immerse myself in my own world and enjoy the thrill of the moral high ground!"

"Is there anything that impresses you?"

"Yes, for example, in the case of a security guard beating a dog, it was a wild dog. He, a security guard, beat a wild dog that might bite people. He didn't kill anyone or set fire to it. He just did his own job and was violently attacked by the Internet. Asking to fire him... feels a bit excessive!"

"So you've had this experience?"

Shen Changlin shook his head: "I didn't, but I found that many times the media reports are very one-sided. For example, when I promoted my last movie "Big Shot", I emphasized more than once that this movie is a Jackie Chan-style comedy expression that I voluntarily chose. But when the report comes out, there are still censorship restrictions..."

Dong Qian: "Are you very distressed?"

"It's not a matter of distress. I know that some people will be interested in such a report. After all, censorship is a scapegoat now. No matter what movie you make, if it is not good, you can throw the blame to the censors! And the audience is willing to accept this statement !"

"Is anyone scolding you online?"

"Yes, there are quite a lot. My Weibo private messages have a lot of people scolding me every day, but I'm too lazy to care about them..."
