I really can't act

Chapter 511 Just wait for Fang Yi's three-piece suit ([-])

While Director Fang was devoting himself to trying to create an epic war film, domestic films were also fighting a rather tragic war. There was a sense of pessimism everywhere.

As we all know, the Sino-US WTO agreement came into effect in February, and it was determined that the mainland will add 2 American blockbusters to the annual quota of 20 imported films, and the box office share ratio has also increased to a quarter.The fettered hands and feet of Hollywood have loosened a little.

The enemy has already reached the high ground, and the crystal defense battle has won seven out of ten times. Regardless of whether it is due to playing or relying on strength, the result is the last word.This winning rate is worth a stud.

In fact, the China-U.S. agreement of the WTO involves all aspects. Compromise in the film market is inevitable. Do you want to protect movies or soybeans?Movies are certainly not as important as food.The mainland film market is a card that has been thrown out, and it is a card with a high winning rate that can be dealt with.

With anticipation and worry, many filmmakers have spent the second quarter after it took effect. This quarter is an off-season. There are only two Hollywood blockbusters worth mentioning, "Titanic 3D Remastered Edition" and the special effects bad movie "Super "Battleship", it is hard to say whether it is a coincidence of arrangement.However, these two poor-looking films overwhelmed Ning Hao's "Golden Robbery", Wang Xiaoshuai's "I 11", Guan Hu's "Killing", as well as "Everyman" and "Leaping". Nursing Home" and other domestic films.

Maybe once the above movies are listed, you will know which one to choose.Hollywood movies are rotten and rotten, but domestic films in the same period are too abstract, unable to achieve the effect of commercial films, and unable to meet the needs of audiences.

Films such as "Killing a Life" and "Pivot" are not bad, but these films do not belong to the "box office" track.

In the final total, the box office share of domestic films dropped rapidly to 28.9%.It's still the off-season. Once the Hollywood blockbusters are released in the summer, will they still be able to play?

The market needs confidence, and it needs a big boss to talk about the fundamentals.

At the Magic City Film Festival held in late June, Fang Yi hurriedly participated and spoke as a representative of domestic filmmakers: "Please give Chinese films a little more time."

In addition to Fang Yi, other industry leaders also came, gathered at the Shanghai Film Festival, and talked well, so that no one paid attention to who won the film festival's awards.

Wang Changtian, CEO of Fiber Optic Films, believes that good times are yet to come: "In the first half of the year, the box office of several Hollywood films exceeded expectations, but the highlight of domestic films will be in the second half of the year... I am always full of confidence in domestic films."

"The high-tech 'show off' flicks will pass, and people will end up rooting for down-to-earth movies like Love Letter, 17 Back, and even Far Cry." This kind of low-budget film... In addition, the works of excellent filmmakers of the younger generation are also being filmed, and they meet the needs of the audience."

Guo Xiaosi issued an article claiming "the young generation of outstanding filmmakers": My sweat will irrigate the grass below and grow a lonely forest without wind. In the days you have never noticed, I have found paradise.

There were also theater managers who came out to speak: "The national film market should unite to fully tap the box office potential of domestic films. For domestic films that can sell at the box office, we must hurry up before pirated versions come out, and maximize the show rate..."

Director Fang has been mentioning the "screening" for many years, and the "trial screening" is finally on the right track.It has always been a niche formulation before, and few people followed suit, but instead sang against Director Fang.

Now that I was hurt, I remembered Fang Dao's foresight.China Film Group took the lead in announcing that all films in its theaters will be screened to a certain extent, and the screening rate will be arranged accordingly.

It's a pity that a lot has changed in the past three years, and China Film's theater chain is no longer important in the country.

——In short, publicity is one thing, but in private, Zongju is very eager. He has held two industry seminars, the first after the Shanghai Film Festival, and the last one is now.

All directors you can think of participated, including Fang Yi of course.

His position in it is very special. He is also a literary creator, a technical supporter of the market, and a content producer. He also occupies the three roles of director, special effects person and producer. His opinions are the focus of the seminar. heavy.

Zong Ju holds many seminars a year, and most of the time they are of the nature of presentations. Only the lecturers are entertaining themselves, and other colleagues may not come to listen, and listen to them as nothing.

It is difficult for a cultural person to be convinced by another cultural person.

Fang Yi has a report link after each film is released. Zong Ju called on his peers to learn and comprehend "Fang Dao's advanced experience", which is basically useless.

Of all the reports Fang Yi made last year, only the "Film Industrialization" co-authored with Han Sanping played a role, and eventually evolved into support and additional investment in the film industry, which can be regarded as Director Fang's real contribution to everyone's livelihood.

—— Needless to say, the course of the seminar is mainly to announce two things.

First, the Westernization Movement in the film industry has officially started, and the first batch of "Children Studying in America" ​​has been selected. These young directors will go to Paramount Pictures in the United States for a three-month training to experience the industrialized production process of Hollywood. And get a certain degree of financial support in the debut.

What is a young director?

This was originally a term without a label. You are a young director when you are young, but it has gradually evolved into a new generation of directors that is different from the fifth generation. It is a loose collective term for a group of new ideas.The spiritual leader is Fang Yi. This group of people has a certain degree of breakthrough in aesthetics, technology, and narrative.

Therefore, the 40-year-old Wu Ershan is a young director (who has filmed "Smile in the Sword"), the 37-year-old Zhang Meng is also a young director (who has filmed "The Piano of Steel"), Fang Yi and even Ning Hao are considered young directors, and Lu Chuan is not considered a "young director".

Guo Fan and Lu Yang, the second generals under Hum Ha, were supposed to be "children studying in the United States", but these two are determined to be the local school's hand-rubbing nuclear bombs and take the road of self-reliance.

Second, discuss the future of domestic films in the second half of the year.

Or to put it more bluntly, if the second half of the year is still so bleak, what do you give Shangfeng?

Let go of the first year, and you make it like this?
Zong Ju couldn't change the box office, so he could only follow path dependence, continue to follow the "good days are yet to come" narrative technique, use the success of a certain movie to boost morale, and cover up the overall decline of the year.

It seems that the lofty ideal depends on Fang Yi to realize it.

As long as Fang Yi's movie is released, everything will be fine.
