This director is very reliable

Chapter 793 I do not agree with your point of view (13)

The last time Shen Changlin participated in the Golden Horse Awards was 11 years ago, and Shi Shi accompanied him...

This year, he's the only one.

He came as the screenwriter and producer of "Burning".

"Eight Hundred" did not sign up...

After arriving in Taipei, I didn't attend any reception at the first time, but walked around...

The development of Taipei, including Formosa, has stagnated!

The head of the four Asian tigers back then!

From the data point of view, since the beginning of the 21st century, with the economic rise of the mainland, India, Vietnam and other countries, the four Asian tigers have been mentioned less and less frequently...

So, regardless of whether it is a small dragon or not, in front of the giant dragon, you have to call him Dad!
Of course, to call him father, you have to spend money to marry him a wife and buy a house...

It doesn't matter, you can benefit!

But there is one thing, we have written the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation into the "National Security Law"!

Unification is impossible, so why talk about revival or not?
He went shopping in Taipei with a few security personnel, ate a lot, and went to the famous Eslite Bookstore, where he bought two books, "Richthofen China Travel Diary" and one The Republic of China version of "Jin Ping Mei"...

Thinking of going back to the hotel directly, and then received a call from Ah Mou, asking him to go to the Regent Hotel, saying that he wanted to introduce a few people to him...

Probably someone like Hou Xiaoxian, Jiao Xiongping!

……

Frankly speaking, if it was the first time, Shen Changlin might not want to meet this group of people.

Jiao Xiongping used to be the editor of a film magazine, and he was involved in various awards ceremonies.

After the Taiwan Film Declaration of Independence was signed, Chiao Hung-ping became a link between Taiwanese films, filmmakers, international film festivals, and film markets...

Introduced Hou Xiaoxian, Li An, Yang Dechang, Cai Mingliang and many more!

That is to say, 'Taiwan has a group of people who specialize in public relations film festivals, and there is a person named Jiao who relies on this! '

meet them?
What's the point?

But Shen Changlin's mentality has changed recently.

This group of people is indeed talented, especially Edward Yang, "The Terrorist" in 91, no matter the thought or the way of telling it, it still gives people a chilling feeling now!
By the way, "The Terrorist" is a multi-line narrative, and it is a multi-line narrative with a mixture of three lines...

There is indeed a level!
To put it simply, the hero in "Terrorist" is similar to Zhang Dongsheng in "The Hidden Corner". Both of them made some compromises with their wives, but they were both betrayed by their wives in the end.

The difference is that Zhang Dongsheng killed his wife and her parents, but the plot of "The Terrorist" is much worse. Divorced and resigned, he can only fantasize about being promoted, but when the fantasy is over, He didn't dare to point his gun at anyone, he only dared to give himself a relief.

Hou Xiaoxian is also very interesting, not his movies, but him!

Shen Changlin has always wanted to make up for Hou Xiaoxian's movie, but...can't watch it!
But Hou Xiaoxian is quite interesting. It is said that when he was young, Hou Xiaoxian spent most of his time fighting and gambling.There are foreign children in the school, he will fight first, and often the opponent's eyes will be dazzled as soon as he makes a move.

Stubble boys!

After the internal fight, we have to fight the outside!
After meeting, Shen Changlin asked about these things, and Hou Xiaoxian nodded: "If you want to build your own reputation, then hit a big one, such as smashing the non-commissioned officer's club."

"Smash the club? Will you be arrested?"

"No, we ran fast!" After a pause, he continued: "Then, I found that others looked at me differently, with a bit of respect. My friend was bullied, so he ran back to me for support, and said he would repay me. His name didn't work, and then I rushed over to find that person and hit him, and found that the other party didn't fight back..."

"Not fighting back? Why?"

"You've already accumulated a reputation."

Oh, this is called prestige accumulation!

"and after?"

"Later I went to serve in the army!"

After taking a sip of wine, Hou Xiaoxian continued: "In those days, the film studio was also a mixed world. If something happened, we started filming directly, almost every film. I started with director Li Xing, and I started to make scene notes. Later, I worked as a screenwriter and director... I remember the first time I was a director, "It's Her", on the set, the producer and the camera assistant suddenly had a fight.

The two chased after each other, and I unconsciously followed.Halfway through the run, I suddenly thought, "No, I'm starting to be a director today, so I can't play any more.""

"I did what I said, after becoming a director, I never fought again!"

Hearing this, Jiao Xiongping was happy: "But the consequence is that Director Hou's hands are often broken and injured..."

"why?"

"Because when he gets angry, he can only smash the door, the wall, or any other objects in front of him with his fist. Therefore, if the crew sees Hou Xiaoxian's hand suddenly wrapped in a bandage and put on a plaster cast, everyone will shut up obediently and politely." .”

Shen Changlin couldn't hold back, he burst into laughter...

……

In fact, when it comes to Taiwanese films, I have to say that Taiwanese films lose money declaration, no, it is the new wave declaration!

After the declaration, Taiwanese films completely abandoned commercialization!

Then the home market is handed over.

As for how they got together?

Taiwanese movies of the 70s and [-]s were mostly violent or pornographic.

In 1981, the Taiwan Film Bureau wanted to change the status quo and launched the Film Tutoring Fund Program to provide start-up funds for outstanding new film directors.

The person who carried out the plan was Wu Nianzhen, thinking that a movie can only be launched by one director, so it is better to make a platter, so he planned "The Story of Time"-a movie to find four directors, saving money and effective.

Tao Dechen, Yang Dechang, Ke Yizheng, Zhang Yi...

Hou Xiaoxian filmed "Xiao Bi's Story" at that time, and the box office was also very good!
At that time, Edward Yang was the leader. For a long time, in Edward Yang’s Japanese-style apartment, a group of filmmakers gathered at his house to watch art films from various countries.

After watching, Edward Yang sent everyone a breakout list, telling everyone about the narrative technique of this movie.He did it like an accordion, pulling out a long piece.

Hou Xiaoxian has never heard of the foreign films introduced by Edward Yang and a group of returned directors, and he would fall asleep watching the so-called "master movies".

"I have been a director all the way from an apprentice to a scene recorder. I have more exposure to practical work. I rely on intuitive experience to make movies. I have heard a lot of trendy theories, but I don't know where to start."

"Later, Zhu Tianwen recommended a book to me, "Shen Congwen's Autobiography". This novel has a point of view, which is overlooking. It seems that he is very objective in seeing all the sad things that happen in this world, with a kind of open mind. , After reading this book, I know how to make a movie!"

Shen Changlin nodded: "I've also read Elder Shen's autobiography!"

It is estimated that everyone should know "Border Town", but "Congwen Autobiography" is not the same as "Border Town"...

In this book, Mr. Shen seems to have become a camera, a camera, leading readers to unfold his childhood in Xiangxi bit by bit.

On the eve of [-], people’s heads rolled around the door and ears were all over the ground; people were slaughtered wantonly during the march; intestines were cut open, noses were gouged out; people were lucky enough to stay behind and survived, machine guns in the valley, assassinations on the roadside, etc. …

This is the most barbaric era in modern China, and it is also an era when it is not uncommon to encounter murders on the road. Mr. Shen took these out of the memory in his mind without reservation and without emotion, chopped them up on the chopping board, and told you , These human lives, that's it.This may be an era that you don't recognize, but this is the sentient beings I have experienced.

Shen Changlin then asked back: "You mean that the movie should be viewed from an angle?"

"Yes, you are just a narrator, not a witness. The director does not need to mix his own emotions..."

"I don't agree with your point of view!" Shen Changlin shook his head: "If it's just telling, then the movie becomes a documentary. To make a movie is to tell a story first. This story may not happen, but it should never be dull. It must be both Theatrical and human qualities. After all, what is drama but life without the dullness?"
