Chapter 850 Topic
If the topicality of "Shushan" is concentrated on the breakthrough of photography technology, the topicality of "General" is much richer.

First of all, it breaks through the traditional aesthetic concept, returns to the basics, and restores a real spring and autumn world.

Then, apart from barbarism, blood, and conflicts, that world also has elegance, subtlety, and elegance.

The various furnishings and costumes in the Chu Palace are all restorations of the real objects of the Spring and Autumn Period. However, the magnificent imagination that is different from the atmosphere and concentration of the Central Plains culture creates a scene that is different from the common scenes of the Spring and Autumn Period in previous movies, completely different from the audience’s imagination. Different, full of exaggeration, magic, romance, and the Jingchu civilization where humans and gods coexist.

As for Wu Guo, the gorgeous weapons, weird carvings, and short hair in the shawl reflect a barbaric and violent beauty.

Every person, every plot, and even every object is full of contradictions and conflicts.

Because it was an era full of contradictions and conflicts.

Si Xingzhun fully demonstrated it through his lens language.

"A blockbuster movie, an absolute blockbuster movie, I don't know about the box office, but I definitely enjoyed watching it."

"None of the characters is simple and pale, so I can't judge who is the good guy and who is the bad guy until the end. It seems that everyone has their own valid reasons for doing things. It can be said from their standpoint , no one did anything wrong, but why did things turn out like this?"

"The upstairs is right. This is the complexity of the world. How many domestic movies can reach this height?"

"This should be the skill of the screenwriter, right? Xiaozhun can pick such a book to shoot, it's a treasure."

"That's not true. There are fewer good books that are made into bad movies? Do you think there are fewer computer special effects used in this movie? It's just that you can't see the traces. The shot that Ji Guang shot over during the siege Arrows, absolute computer effects, haven't you noticed?"

"That's right...Ms. Chen is also a national treasure, so it's impossible to stand there and be shot."

"Only after watching this movie did I realize how poor my ancient knowledge is. Damn it turns out that the arm of the crossbow is straight, but the string is loose. The ancient crossbow is so different from the modern crossbow. The tightly crumpled crossbows are all fools!"

"There are also carved inscriptions of the Wu people, coupled with their rough linen clothes, leather armor, straw sandals under their feet, short swords around their waists, and short shoulder-patterned hair, it gives me the feeling that Wu people should look like this Well! In an emerging country that has just moved from barbarism to civilization, the people of the country should have this kind of unreasonable barbarism."

"Ha, it happens that such a country maintains comity to the end. What is this called? If you lose your courtesy, ask everyone?"

"The things from the state of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period are really so exquisite? The paintings on the lacquerware screen, all kinds of exaggerated lines, and Yao Ji's wedding dress are so beautiful!"

"There shouldn't be too many things inside. It's just a journey of easter eggs. I remember roughly painted wood carvings and lacquered lying deer, plain yarn Zen clothes, silk paintings, chimes, lacquerware, guqin..."

"There are also double phoenix drums, jade discs with cross-dragon patterns, and bronze wares of various shapes..."

"Yes, there is also the Kowloon drum seat, I saw it in the National Museum..."

"Let's wait for a post from a professional. There must be expert netizens who will dig out all the easter eggs in it..."

"Speaking of this, I am convinced of this film. The bronzes in the museum are all dug out from the ground and all embroidered, while the bronzes in the movie are objects that have only been used for more than a hundred years and are carefully maintained every day. So all of them are resplendent, and the key is that they are covered with thick patina, which is another kind of beauty.”

"Hahaha, I'm going to laugh out loud when I talk about this. I've also seen a film that claims to be highly restored. The arrows of the soldiers in it are all copper green. Is this just dug out of the soil to shoot people? Hahahaha ..."

"Fuck! Are you watching a documentary or a commercial blockbuster? Storytelling is king, right?"

"There's nothing wrong with the storyline, but everyone can't take this story seriously, whoever takes it seriously is stupid..."

"What? It's not true? Isn't there Wu Zixu, Helu, Zhu Jiliao?"

"Uh, these are true, but Ganjiang Moxie is a legend, oops, I can't explain clearly, you should check it yourself..."

"It turns out that the bronze sword is not one piece. The tsuba and the blade are detachable, and then a handle and a rope have to be added. I used to wonder why the bronze swords seen in museums are so anti-human, and they are hard to hold. How can you fight!"

"Actually... I think this is a wake-up call to all museums. In addition to showing us the cultural relics, we should also show the real appearance of the restored cultural relics at that time. If the sword looks like this, then it is a proper killing weapon and there is nothing wrong with it."

"Actually, Ji Guang's ambition can be seen from the small details of casting the sword. The words 'Wu Wang Guang Zi Zha' on the bird seal on Mo Xie's sword are very revealing. He was not the King of Wu at that time. Hehe, The morals of a politician..."

"Social Society..."

"I don't think there's anything wrong with Ji Guang's approach. You have to admit that Helu led Wu to prosperity, and later beat Chu to call him father!"

"But what was his reason for killing Ji Liao? He used military force! What did he do after he came to power? Didn't he set up a memorial archway to be a bitch?"

"Uh, this scene is very familiar... Besides, I feel that the word upstairs will be marked with an asterisk..."

"If you want me to say that Gou Jian is more powerful, then Gou Jian also beat him to the point of calling him father!"

"That's Goujian being too vicious! Who came up with the idea of ​​sending scalded millet to Wu Guo?"

"He Lu is not vicious? Isn't he vicious? First send Zhuan Zhu to assassinate Ji Liao, and then send Yaoli to assassinate Ji Liao's son Qingji?"

"Fuck, are these two things related?"

"Huh? Huh? So you haven't read "The Assassins"?"

"I played "Assassin's Creed"! What the hell! You can't look down on me just because I don't have enough books..."

"Didn't you find out? How many people died from the Yuchang sword in the movie? In fact, there is a hidden pen."

"What hidden pen?"

"Didn't Yaoji change the name of the fish intestines to Duli? I checked it online, and later King Helu of Wu gave Wu Zixu the sword that killed himself. The name is Shulu!"

"Damn it! This screenwriter can do it, and don't let go of such small details?"

"Also, after Gou Jian destroyed Wu, he also gave this sword to Wen Zhong. After Wen Zhong carefully identified it, he found that it was Wu Zixu's own use, so he understood Gou Jian's meaning and committed suicide."

"I rely on!"

In any case, "General" received rave reviews. The young director Si Xingzhun, from a purely commercial storytelling film to a serious work that explores human nature, has indeed achieved perfection and excellence, breaking through the shackles of traditional historical films, which is refreshing. .

A general calculation of the cost-benefit ratio of a movie, if a movie wants to keep its capital, the box office must be more than three times the cost, because theaters and taxes will take a lot of money.

The box office of "Great General" is incomparable to that of "Shushan", an IP drama with its own fans. The box office on the first day was only more than [-] million yuan. The estimated one-week filming period can almost recover the cost.

However, on the third day of its release, the box office suddenly opened higher, with a score of nearly [-] million, bucking the trend and going strong.

Because the largest domestic newspaper published a commentator's article that day, and then the first media's daily news also read the report aloud.

"How should we correctly treat the history in film and television dramas".

The article severely criticized the chaos of film and television dramas such as tearing devils by hand, hiding mines in the crotch, and bombing planes with grenades, and also implicitly criticized the wanton adaptation of various costume dramas.I think this is a great disrespect to the history of the Chinese nation and a shameless insult to the ancestors of the Chinese nation who fought tenaciously in the bloody wind.

These are indeed the pain points of the high-level bosses. Spiritual civilization is not grasped in this way, but there is no strong thing to say.

Well now, it’s not that I can’t do it, but that no one can do it.

So after talking about the negative side and the positive side, the article spoke highly of the true restoration of history in "The General".

Although the costumes, props, historical events, characters, and event development inside are based on a legend, they are consistent with the historical background of the historical events at that time.

At the same time, it is pleasing to the eye, and it can also understand the thoughts and thoughts of the people at that time, reflecting their lives, their culture, and their experiences.

Finally, a characterization is given, such works are good works that meet the spiritual needs of the people, are good works that respect history, respect humanities, have a sense of responsibility, and can correctly lead the trend of the times.

Next, the Palace Museum, the Hubei Provincial Museum, the Jingchu Intangible Culture Museum, and the Suzhou Provincial Museum jointly launched a large-scale documentary "The Romance of Wu and Chu".

Among them, the event that the film crew of "The General" collected shooting materials was used as the context, and the prototypes of the cultural relics in the film were introduced to the TV audience one by one.

"Approaching Science" Mr. Zhang took it for granted and launched three issues of "Famous Swords of Spring and Autumn".

From the three aspects of archaeological excavation of cultural relics, bronze casting technology, and restoration of modern boutiques, it introduces in detail the process of the origin, evolution and final peak of the Spring and Autumn Bronze Sword.

Master Chen Jianshi in Shaoxing couldn’t help but say that it became a big hit. Several museums placed orders to restore the ancient swords of the Spring and Autumn Period in their collections, and then put them on sword suits and displayed them side by side with the cultural relics.

There is also a saying here that works can be included in museum collections, which is a necessary label for the title of master.

In other words, after Chen Jianshi copied a few swords, he would be able to be crowned a master, which was considered a reward from heaven.

All of these were reflected in the box office of "Great General", and people went to the cinema to watch this film one after another.

For a time, the magnificence and beauty of Jingchu culture became a hot topic of discussion among ordinary people after dinner.

Si Xingzhun and the crew were running around the world doing publicity, and finally managed to catch up on the video call with Li Junge.

Speaking of this matter, Si Xingzhun smiled and said: "Hehe, I thought it was going to hit the street this time, but it seems that the results are not bad, and the box office of 30 billion can be guaranteed."

Li Junge said: "The input and output are disproportionate. Compared with "Shushan", the investment is ten times more, but the results are far inferior."

Si Xingzhun rolled his eyes: "What the hell, I can't explain this to you! It's not good to make money to make a low-budget comedy? But can you become a famous director like that?"

Li Junge said: "Wow, famous director! Erzhun, you have turned the thick-skinned city walls upside down and added forts! You dare to say that!"

Si Xingzhun said: "Why can't it work? Why can't it work? I have made three bangs in the past few years, which one didn't ring?"

Li Junge said: "Dangdang, those are the three big rice cake dumplings! Save yourself the trouble, the results can only explain the past, when will you come back and take care of the family affairs first?"

Si Xingzhun murmured: "This... it will take at least half a year, right? I still have to order a wedding dress, hire a wedding company, arrange a banquet..."

Li Junge scolded: "I'm talking about a musical! Who cares about your lower body!"
