This director is very reliable

Chapter 599 It's just a matter of fact! (twenty four)

"Our Victory" was widely publicized—a commemorative work for the 70th anniversary of the Anti-French Dilution appointed by the General Administration...

There will be two news broadcasts at the meeting.

Moreover, the movie channel broadcasts the "Our Victory" movie ceremony...

Of course it's not as good as "My Motherland and Me"-it caught up with the CCTV National Day Gala, and a bunch of actors from the crew came on stage to sing.

However, five directors, A Mou, Shen Changlin, Ning Hao, Yang Qing, and Su Lun, and more than [-] actors from all over the country starred in it. It has a huge lineup, and it can be called a national-level film. The public's attention has always been high!
It will be released on September 9 to coincide with the 3th anniversary, otherwise, if it goes directly to the National Day file, it will definitely become the overlord of the National Day file.

Back to the topic, Lao Guo continued: "However, more than [-] million in "The Bottom Hot Girl" has already met expectations..."

"That's right... By the way, what about the box office of "Nie Yinniang"?"

"... 800 million on the first day, 15% of the filming was given... I'm really sorry for this filming!"

Shen Changlin smiled: "...This kind of movie itself is used to please the author himself. Even if it is placed in the sequence of Hou Xiaoxian's works, "Assassin Nie Yinniang" is mediocre enough!"

"you saw it?"

"Hmm... After all, I won the Cannes Director's Award, I must have a sneak peek... I saw half of it, so I just slipped away!"

It is not to say that all author films are masterpieces. Of course, author films can maintain a certain uniqueness of their own works, including a unique way of expression, and even this way of expression is incomprehensible to most people.

The public often does not fully agree with these unique works, and even abuses them, but this does not mean that what the public criticizes must be a masterpiece.

"Nie Yinniang" is really a mediocre author's film. The mediocre thing is that although it externalizes the author's inner Tang Dynasty, it is not moving because there are almost no people in this film.

The promotion of this film is very interesting. Before the release, the emphasis was on "Cannes Unprecedented Success", and after the release, it was "Do you understand? ', 'I didn't understand, read it again'...

Why do ordinary audiences forcefully understand commercial literary films that they are not interested in?

Do you reimburse movie tickets?
"Director Hou Xiaoxian is getting old too!"

"Indeed!" Shen Changlin continued: "The screenwriter of "Assassin Nie Yinniang" is Xie Haimeng, the third generation of the famous Zhu family... a student!"

"Which Zhu family?"

"Zhu Xining, Zhu Tianwen's father and daughter, including son-in-law Tang Nuo, their family has a very high status in the literary world of Baodao. It goes without saying that the Zhu family is connected in a place as big as Baodao. By the way, "City of Sadness", " Zhu Tianwen is the screenwriter of "Dream Life"...so, Xie Haimeng can be the screenwriter of "Assassin Nie Yinniang" just after graduation!"

Disgusting family, they know that they come to the mainland to make money, and if they can't make money, they say that mainland audiences are hot chickens and won't appreciate it—her original words, "The history of Chinese people watching movies is too short, and they don't have enough experience in watching movies. There is no complete and systematic cognition of things yet! '

Arrogance written all over your face!

But... "Assassin Nie Yinniang" box office in Treasure Island is pitifully low!
"...I said..."

Guo Songjiang nodded: "By the way, Ma Boyong cursed "Assassin Nie Yinniang" and got blasted!"

"exploded?"

"He said he didn't want to watch "Nie Yinniang", and he got scolded!"

"Call him...why?"

Guo Songjiang shook his head: "I don't know, maybe I think that the work that won the best director in Cannes should go to the theater to support it!"

"Yes, you should indeed support it!"

"what?"

""Assassin Nie Yinniang" must be watched in movies, otherwise, if you watch it on a computer, you won't be able to watch it at all. Only in a movie theater, with the cold wind blowing, you may insist on watching it because you don't care about the ticket money!"

……

Well, Ma Boyong was not scolded for his review of the movie "Assassin Nie Yinniang"...

He is a film critic for 'Sina Movie'.

After Cannes, Sina Films commented on "Assassin Nie Yinniang": "Nie Yinniang" is a surprise.I was worried that the old-fashioned story would not produce new ideas, but I didn't expect that the director didn't want to tell the story at all, and his skill was not used in traditional narratives such as character relationships and plot twists.Breathtakingly beautiful pictures, smoked farmhouses, green mountains and green waters, ancient customs of the Tang Dynasty... Traditional oriental traditional implicit and difficult to understand classical Chinese dialogues, creating an innovative masterpiece of artistic conception and martial arts that has never been seen before.

It's outrageous, written by Sina Film Critic... Just read the first half of the film review, don't mention the name of the movie, I thought it was talking about "Little Times"...

In an analogy, a writer wrote a novel with painstaking efforts and sent it to a publishing house. After the editor took over the manuscript, he praised: "I thought you couldn't write a novel with such an old subject, but I didn't expect that you didn't want to tell a story at all. Look at the writing of this character, the layout is ingenious and compact, the strokes are as floating as clouds, as bold as a dragon, the calligraphy is strong and natural, and the iron is drawn with silver hooks..."

what do you think...

Isn't this a curse?

Ma Boyong couldn't stand this kind of film review, so he forwarded it directly, and commented by the way: This film review is so well written, I can strongly feel the author's cry behind the words, so I decided not to watch it.In addition, what many Chinese directors lack is precisely the traditional narrative ability to tell a story honestly.

Then... got raped!
The propagandist of "Nie Yinniang" felt that Ma Boyong was targeting "Nie Yinniang", so... rushed him!

The film studio and a lot of relevant people are waiting fiercely - the film studio thinks he has a lot of influence, and publicly saying "I decided not to watch it" may affect the box office...

'Cannes, "Nie Yinniang" received a standing ovation from the audience, a ticket is hard to come by!Your country is still reporting pornography...'

Tarkovsky said that his narrative level needs to be improved, and he hopes to learn from the prince who is good at storytelling. He has invited Ingmar Bergman to sign up together. '

'Ma Boyong doesn't know anything about Hou Hsiao-hsien's movies, not even movies! '

This Nima...

Shen Changlin was quite upset...

I really want to post a small composition to reply, but...it's not appropriate.

As soon as he got angry, "Nie Yinniang" might become a topic. Once it becomes a topic, the theaters will definitely increase the number of films...

Forget it, let it be released quietly, and then go down!However, he still wrote a paragraph, "Recently researching the film market, I found that Chinese audiences have more literary aesthetics than aesthetics. This is very good. Storytelling is the most basic and important thing in commercial films. I think we can refer to the models of storytelling and chapter novels." Try making a movie! '

I think it's very vague, but I was still criticized by many netizens, especially "film critics":

'Is it satirizing "Nie Yinniang"? '

'I don't think movies have to be about narrative.The films of many well-known directors in film history do not emphasize narrative, or even deliberately weaken narrative, but their films do not lack aesthetic and ideological value because of this. '

'There is a threshold for appreciating art, we should refer to the opinions of professionals.For example, Nie Yinniang, we refer to the views of domestic and foreign film critics and film practitioners.If they're generally better, we think it's a bad movie.What I thought at this time should not be: they are pretending.Instead, think: Where did I go wrong? '

This Nima...

Shen Changlin replied directly: "So, we must be superstitious about authority?"I am particularly disgusted that I have no ability to satisfy the audience, so I just scold the audience—"The history of Chinese people watching movies is too short, the experience of watching movies is insufficient, and they don't have a complete and systematic understanding of things like movies."

'It's already 2015, what movie the audience hasn't seen?The reason why movies can become the seventh art and become popular all over the world is simply because movies are not made for professionals. If everyone says bad movies and professionals say good ones, then shouldn’t professionals think about what’s wrong? up? '

'Movies are a kind of entertainment for the masses, and the criterion for judging entertainment by the masses is whether they like it or not. As for artistic achievements, that is a matter for "experts in the circle".Van Gogh's high status means that I must like his paintings? '

'Moreover, I said directly that art films can not emphasize narrative, but at least tell the story. There are many excellent movies that do not emphasize narrative, but they at least tell the story clearly. As for the artistic conception, it is different... I will add : With the level of text and interpretation of "Nie Yinniang", it is very rare to be intoxicated by it, and it is even more rare to be able to feel the artistic conception of Tang poetry... This kind of person's level is beyond my reach! '

The other party replied immediately, "You also said that people in the circle approve..."

'Since it is recognized by people in the circle, it means that this is a niche subject matter. Why do you despise them after everyone says they don't like it after the national release?Do you want to shut everyone's mouths so that everyone has to say good things? '

Shen Changlin has already restrained himself and did not directly comment on "Nie Yinniang"...

There are too many show operations in the promotion of this film. The promotion team posted six long articles on the Internet to explain the story of "Nie Yinniang"-that is to say, if you want to understand, you need to read the six long articles first!
The netizen who was pissed off by him was anxious, 'Then if you have the ability, you can also win a Cannes award! '

Simple and direct, replied with one word: 'Okay, see you in Cannes next year! '
