my superstar girlfriend

Chapter 232 The reason why he said he didn't like it

Although Mu Chen has only debuted for a few years, his works have continued one after another, each of which has set off a craze.And he himself has a lot of topics, and the headlines on the front page don't know how many times, so he is often chased by the media.

Naturally, there are many media who have dealt with him.

The reporters had already figured out Mu Chen's temper.

"There is nothing to say about the fight." Mu Chen said, "Don't say they strike first, I am purely self-defense. Even if they don't strike, I will probably bear it if they are pointed at their noses and called 'yellow monkey'." Keep moving."

"I don't think I did anything wrong after hitting those guys. As for the American media asking me to apologize, let them go to hell!" Mu Chen continued, "It's not me who should apologize, but those people."

"Okay!" Seeing the security personnel from the airport coming, Mu Chen immediately said, "If you have any questions, please ask them tomorrow afternoon."

Those reporters understood Mu Chen's temper, so they would say nothing more if they asked Mu Chen further.

The next day, Mu Chen went to the company early in the morning.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon won four Oscars, and many domestic talk shows have invited you." Chen Fuhai said to Mu Chen.

Invite Mu Chen to record a show?
This is expected.

After all, Mu Chen became the first filmmaker to win an Oscar statuette, and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was also the first film to hit an Oscar success.

As the director of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Mu Chen naturally became the most sought after person.

What's more, Mu Chen himself also got a statuette.

During this period of time, he is definitely a popular fried chicken, the kind that no one can match.

"What do you mean?"

In the past, Mu Chen might have rejected them all.

Now he is less and less interested in recording programs.

However, this time he did not refuse.

The reason for agreeing to record the program this time is not that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has achieved good results, and they want to go to the TV show to brag about it.

But "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is about to be released, and recording a program will undoubtedly have an excellent boost to the box office.

"CCTV's People" also invited you." Chen Fuhai said.

When he said this, he obviously suggested that Mu Chen accept the invitation of this program.

""People"?" Mu Chen looked at Chen Fuhai in surprise, and said, "Aren't you joking? Is it appropriate for me to go?"

The program "Character" is a little too high.

This program may not have high ratings, but its influence is not small.

The people on this show are all extremely influential figures in various fields.

Mu Chen didn't think he had the qualifications.

"What's inappropriate?" Chen Fuhai said with a smile, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the first film to hit the Oscar success. As the director of this film, you are fully qualified. Besides, you are the only one in China with tens of billions of dollars. box office director."

Mu Chen smiled, it was the next step.

"Oh, that's right." Chen Fuhai continued, "Shanghai Satellite TV wants you to show your face on "Song of China"."

"Is the ratings of this show not good?" Mu Chen looked over suspiciously.

"Compared to "The Voice of China", both in terms of influence and ratings, it is not as good." Chen Fuhai said, "The main reason is that there are no popular songs. Therefore, they want you to sing a song on stage, and make it topic."

"The Voice of China" and "Song of China" are both collaborations between Chenxi Film and Television and Shanghai Satellite TV.

"Okay!" Mu Chen thought for a while and said.

It's just a song, if it can increase the ratings and influence of "Song of China", what would Mu Chen refuse?

If the ratings and influence of this show were not satisfactory, Mu Chen's face would also be embarrassing.

This show is planned, but his name is on it.

Although, he just came up with ideas and didn't participate.

In the afternoon, Chenxi Film and Television held a press conference.

Not only Mu Chen was present, but also Li Ruoxi, Li Long, Zhang Na, and Zhen Pei, a signed artist of Chenxi Film and Television.

Seeing this, the reporters didn't know that this press conference was actually the press conference of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

The turmoil caused by Mu Chen in the United States is now a hot topic, and naturally many media come here.

How could Mu Chen let go of such an opportunity.

"Thank you to all the media for coming. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" won four Oscars including Best Foreign Language Film, breaking the curse of Chinese-language films missing Oscars for many years. As the director of this film, I am proud." Chen said, "This film will be available to you tomorrow, please support me."

"If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

As soon as Mu Chen finished speaking, the reporters in the audience raised their hands impatiently.

Under such circumstances, those reporters would naturally not speak directly.

Otherwise, this press conference will become a wet market.

"Director Mu, how do you feel about missing out on the Oscar for Best Director?"

"I'm still somewhat disappointed." Mu Chen said with a smile, "After all, any filmmaker, no matter what award, is shortlisted, and naturally wants to win an award. However, you said how disappointed, it seems that there is no. I I never thought that I would win the award for the first time nomination, the Golden Dragon Award for Best Director, didn’t I also nominate many times before I won the award? No expectations, no disappointment.”

"Then have you ever thought about making a film that will sweep the Oscars like it swept the Golden Dragon Awards?"

"Sweep Oscar?" Mu Chen was stunned for a moment, and said, "I don't know whether to say that you have big brains, or that you think highly of me. I am a human being, not a god!"

"Director Mu, can you tell me more about how you got into a police station after fighting in the United States?"

Mu Chen looked at Li Ruoxi.

"We went shopping that day, and we were going back," Li Ruoxi said, "a big man, much taller and stronger than me. He passed me by, but fell on his back. When he got up, he was about to Pushed me, was blocked by Mu Chen, then started to move, was restrained by my bodyguards, and then seven or eight big men surrounded us, accusing us of beating people."

When the reporters heard it, they immediately thought of the word "Pengci".

It's just that those people "touched porcelain", but they touched iron plates.

No, it should be a mixed gold plate.

As for being followed and tricked, Mu Chen and the others naturally wouldn't tell the media.

"Then what does Director Mu want to say about the American media's deliberate smearing?"

A reporter spoke.

"Huaxia's international status is getting higher and higher, but many foreigners still have the long-standing arrogance and prejudice against Huaxia people." Mu Chen said lightly, "But I believe that the white can't be black, and the black can't be white. "

The most concerned issue was resolved, and Mu Chen and others intentionally guided it, and the reporter's question immediately shifted to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Li Long, Zhang Na and others are well-known, especially Li Long spends most of his time in Hollywood now, and rarely returns to China. It is a rare opportunity for interviews, so naturally he will not always focus on Mu Chen alone.

The people present probably only paid a little attention to Zhen Pei.

However, the newly promoted Golden Dragon Award for Best Supporting Actress was not completely left out.

Of course, she was asked the least number of times by media reporters.

After the press conference, major media naturally reported one after another.

Mu Chen's answer to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" Oscar trip.

Mu Chen's response to entering the police station.

Mu Chen discredited his views on the American media.

Li Long's comments on "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"
The news about "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and Mu Chen and others almost occupied the entire entertainment page, and on the Internet, discussions about these things can be seen everywhere.

On the third day, the much-anticipated film was released.

Countless viewers walked into the theater, wanting to see this film.

They didn't understand why Mu Chen not only swept the Golden Dragon Awards with a martial arts film, but also won the Oscars.

The film appeals to moviegoers and, of course, countless filmmakers, as well as professional film critics.

Fangran is a senior film critic, and also a film critic who is highly concerned and recognized by movie fans.

He is also a movie buff.

Fangran was never picky about movies.Action, comedy, science fiction, drama, magic, ethics, thriller, horror, etc., he said he dabbled in all genres.

However, he didn't like martial arts movies and kung fu movies very much before.

He likes films with more content.

Whether it is a martial arts movie or a kung fu movie.In the past this kind of film, the fighting scenes may be extremely exciting, but apart from fighting, you can't see anything else.

In the movie, apart from vendetta, it is revenge.In addition to the meddling of chivalry and righteousness, it is the lawlessness of killing innocent people indiscriminately.The better ones can focus on strengthening the body and defending the country.

For example, Mu Chen's "Jing Wu Heroes" and Yuan Hong's "Ip Man".

He couldn't see the connotation in the movie.

He doesn't think that China's 5000-year civilization is all about these.

This may also be one of the reasons for the decline of martial arts and kung fu movies.

Therefore, he is even more curious about this film that swept the Golden Dragon Awards and won four Oscars.

How is Mu Chen's martial arts film different from others!
Fangran bought a movie ticket for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". When he came to the theater, there were already many people seated inside.

He glanced at it, and found that most of the people who came to watch the movie were young people, and from their discussions, it could be heard that most of these people were fans of Mu Chen's movie.

He is not surprised by this.

If anyone in China has the most movie fans, it's undoubtedly Mu Chen.

Even Zhang Gang and other top directors who have been famous for many years may not be able to compare with them.

This was accumulated by Mu Chen with each film.

He also admired this young man extremely.

Although he doesn't like some of Mu Chen's movies, such as "East and West" and "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance".

Moviegoers came in continuously, and soon the entire movie hall was filled.

Fangran was not surprised by this.

On the first day of the screening of Mu Chen's movie, which time the attendance rate was not high?

What's more, in the April schedule, there are no blockbuster movies released.

The expectations of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" are so high.

Such an attendance rate is purely normal.

The movie starts shortly.

It was just the beginning, and Fangran's eyes lit up.Not attracted by the picture, but by the soundtrack.He could still hear the weeping sound of the cello.

"The soundtrack at the beginning has already established the tone of this film. Soothing and beautiful melody, melancholy and sad life!"

"Is it possible to win the Oscar and Golden Dragon Award for best film soundtrack?"

"The most musically talented director ever!"

For some reason, such a sentence came to Fangran's head.

Shaking his head, Fangran continued to look at the screen.

The inexplicable affection between Li Mubai and Yu Xiulian was hidden in their hearts.

This is a kind of depression and restriction.

The plot of the story gradually unfolded. A long-established hero handed over his sword and wanted to withdraw from the arena, but because of that sword, a series of events were triggered, and the conflicts in the plot were revealed one by one.

As for Yu Xiulian chasing the sword at night, the scene is both virtual and real, emphasizing both artistic conception and reality, and the drum soundtrack is also eye-catching.

The action scenes in the film are fascinating.

This is also a major feature of Mu Chen's films.

The encirclement and suppression of the blue-eyed fox, Yu Xiulian's battle against the jade dragon, and Li Mubai's battle in the bamboo forest with the jade dragon focus on speed, fierce fighting, change, or artistic conception. Several key scenes have their own emphasis and excitement.

The main actors and acting skills are all eye-catching.

Even Mu Chen, who played the main role for the first time, was amazing.

And Mu Chen deserved his nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Luo Xiaohu.

Of course, when the intimate scene between Luo Xiaohu and Yu Jiaolong came out, the movie fans in the theater suddenly realized why Mu Chen suddenly directed and acted on his own.

Mu Chen's suspicion of "male chauvinism" made many movie fans smile.

However, those actors surprised Fangran not by Li Ruoxi who won the Golden Dragon Award for Best Actress, but by Li Long who played Li Mubai.

Fangran had once complained about Li Long's acting skills, but at the very beginning, he felt that Li Long's acting skills had improved a lot, and even had a breakthrough.

Especially those eyes left a deep impression on Fangran.

Is this the look that Mu Chen trained Li Long with the eagle?

The end of the film also confirmed his guess that he heard the soundtrack at the beginning.

The characters in the film all end in tragedy, such is the case with Li Mubai's master and apprentice, and so is Yu Xiulian; the same is true for the pampered and arrogant Jade Dragon, and the same is true for the free and easy and heroic Luo Xiaohu;

This is the sorrow of being born as a human being, and this is the human tragedy that is constantly being staged.

What does Mu Chen want to express in this film?
Fangran fell into thought.

This film is not about knights, but Jianghu!

The righteous deeds of the knights in this film are no longer the focus, but the joys and sorrows of their shuttle between the rivers and lakes and the world, what they think is the focus.

Mu Chen didn't always keep an eye on the development of contradictions and conflicts. He often intentionally or unintentionally crossed the main line of the story with the secular society and customs of the people at that time, thus providing imagination for finding the inextricable connections between them. Space.

This film does not have the arrogance of being proud of the world like ordinary martial arts films. Instead, it is a kind of deep thinking and subtlety that seeks the cultural connotation of the world.

But this kind of thinking doesn't seem to please domestic movie fans very much!

The sense of substitution is too bad!
This can be seen from the reaction of many movie fans in the theater.

Many movie fans didn't understand after watching it!
There is no sense of refreshment!
This is an unpleasant film.

But Fangran had to admit that this was a classic movie.

From the perspective of film language, all audio-visual elements, whether it is photography, choreography, action design, recording, music, etc., also fully reflect the director's profound style and his admiration and love for Chinese classical culture.

Then why did Mu Chen say that the work he dislikes the most is this "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?

Did he know that the movie wasn't going to please fans?That's why he said he didn't like it?
