Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 118 Top level vs top level!

The studio was quiet for a while, and Fang Ziheng's clear voice sounded again.

"In the past two years, the "Ip Man" series can be said to be the most outstanding kung fu movie, and it has been very popular in many parts of Southeast Asia."

"It's such a high-quality kung fu movie, but it just fell into the sand in Europe and the United States. Most foreigners say they can't understand it!"

"why?"

After Fang Ziheng finished speaking, he looked at the host Yang Lan calmly.

why?
Yang Lan also put a question mark in her heart.

The audience in the audience also looked puzzled when they heard this.

Last year, "Ip Man 1" was released, and it was well received, and achieved quite good results in the entire Southeast Asian region.

Statistics show that "Ip Man 1" earned a box office of US$1372 million in the mainland.

Hong Kong Island is 330 million US dollars, and Taiwan Province is 80.1 US dollars.

Singapore 205 million US dollars, Malaysia 144.8 million US dollars.

The Philippines is $5.1, and Smecta is $54.8.

$1 in New Zealand and $16.8 in the United Arab Emirates.

The global box office of "Ip Man 1" reached US$2211 million.

Although it is far from Uncle Long and Brother Jie, his achievements in Southeast Asia are indeed very good.

Then why is it possible in Southeast Asia, but not acclimatized in Europe and the United States?

Because audiences in Southeast Asia have a high acceptance of our Chinese culture, while most audiences in Europe and the United States can't understand movies, Ip Man's approach and the background of the times.

They just want to watch an 'exciting' action movie.

Fang Ziheng didn't hide anything, and pointed to the core of the problem, analyzing the reasons why "Ip Man 1" was not popular in Europe and America.

Then, he analyzed the major genres of costume, comedy, suspense, and disaster, but only ignored the two major genres of science fiction and mythology.

The meaning inside and outside the words is to tell everyone, first cultivate your internal strength well, don't know how to export it every day, guarding your home and fighting a good defense is the kingly way!

As he talked more, Yang Lan's face became more and more surprised, and he changed his initial evaluation just now.

At this moment, Fang Ziheng not only showed strong self-confidence, but also showed his sharpness, and completely retracted his usual stability and calmness.

Damn it!
He has long wanted to spit it out!

Without pouring cold water on domestic films, after two years of capital entering the market, there will only be a piece of chicken feathers left, and they will be beaten to pieces by Hollywood blockbusters.

Of course, it was "Tang Detective" that exploded, and Fang Ziheng became the director of a movie with a box office of over [-] million in the mainland in one fell swoop, so he dared to take the opportunity to start a fight today.

If he was an ordinary director, he would never get him to give advice.

However, Fang Ziheng didn't say anything radical, he just persuaded his colleagues and other filmmakers to make good movies and talk about dreams later.

After chatting about this question, the scene fell into silence again.

Yang Lan picked up the teacup, drinking water to cover up the embarrassment in her heart.

She was thinking about whether to broadcast this episode.

After all, from top to bottom, everyone is clamoring to revitalize Chinese-language films, go out to conquer cities, and export China's traditional culture.

Fang Ziheng's remarks are very sharp, and they are truly sober in the world.

After thinking about it, Yang Lan gestured to the program director to continue recording.

If something goes wrong, she will carry it!

After resting for a while, Yang Lan asked another question.

"Director Fang, what kind of movie do you think "Detective Tang" is?"

Just now Fang Ziheng said that "Ip Man 1" is a high-quality film, and she borrowed flowers to present Buddha, and let him brag and criticize.

"this one"

Fang Ziheng froze for a moment, then looked at Yang Lan in surprise.

Yang Lan's eyes were bright, and she looked at him with a smile. She gently raised her long legs wrapped in foam, and changed into a ladylike sitting posture.

hiss.
No way!
Fang Ziheng had a feeling that there was something wrong with the sister Yu in front of him.

shit
She won't try to draw me up, will she?
Not wide, absolutely not allowed!
Fang Ziheng lowered his head slightly, skipping the glances from Yang Lan, and said calmly: "The movie "Tang Detective" is almost perfect in terms of the combination of comedy and detective, if you have to give it a position!"

"Top class!"

Before Yang Lan could speak, he continued: "But this top level is only for the comedy detective genre.

Enlarged to all types of films, "Tang Detective" can only be regarded as top-notch. "

"Top class?"

Yang Lan spoke softly, asking with a trace of uncertainty.

"Yes, first class!"

Fang Zi's tone was affirmative, without any hypocrisy or modesty.

The quality of "Tang Detective" is excellent in the two fields of comedy and detective, but it can't be compared in all categories.

Seeing that he was so sure, Yang Lan didn't hesitate, and then said: "Director Fang just mentioned first-class and top two words, so I want to ask, is there any other division above top?"

"Yes, of course there is!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene became interested.

Not to mention the audience, even the staff of the program group in the studio all pricked up their ears.

Yang Lan smiled, very happily.

Fang Ziheng was not invited for nothing tonight!
"Director Fang, can you tell me, in your mind, among the domestic films, which films have reached the top level of quality, and which films have reached the top quality?"

"Sister Yang Lan, your understanding is wrong!"

Fang Ziheng waved his hand, pointing out the loopholes in Yang Lan's words.

"Oh what's wrong?"

"Movies are visual products, and their level cannot be defined by the word 'quality' alone."

"What do you mean?"

Yang Lan's eyebrows tightened, and she asked in puzzlement.

Fang Ziheng didn't answer her doubts, but asked with a smile: "Movies made decades ago, due to equipment and funding problems, are not as good as they are now in many aspects, but why do they become classics, what does Sister Yang Lan think is the reason? "

"I understand!"

Yang Lan suddenly realized that she had fallen into a misunderstanding.

The history of film has a full hundred years. As a visual product, it involves a series of issues related to many types of work, scripts, production, lighting, shooting, props, etc.

After the finished film comes out, facing a large audience, it is really impossible to define his level with the word 'quality' alone.

Some movies have good comedy effects, but the plot is full of loopholes.

Some movie plots have online IQ, but the persuasive way is eye-catching.

Some movies have mediocre plots, but the actors are strong enough to make people fall into it.

However, some films have superb screens and full visual effects, which once covered up other problems.

Fang Ziheng ordered a few top-level movies, "Assembly" by Feng Pants, "Kung Fu" by Master Xing, "Peak Moment" by Uncle Long, "Once Upon a Time" and "Invincible" by Brother Jie, and "Invincible" by Li An. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

These movies, in his opinion, represent the pinnacle of a field, and have definitely reached the top level.

With a faint smile, Yang Lan didn't refute or agree, and turned into a listening woman in seconds.

After listening, she beckoned and asked the assistant to bring two cups of freshly brewed coffee, and asked casually, "What words do you think should be used to define a movie above the top level?"

Fang Ziheng took the coffee, thanked his assistant, and then fell into a brief silence.

Above the top level!

What vocabulary should I use to call it?

Yang Lan didn't rush, she stirred the small spoon in the coffee cup and waited quietly for his answer.

Below the stage.

The audience whispered and discussed in low voices.

Ten seconds later!
Fang Ziheng's eyes flickered, he shook the coffee in his hand twice, looked at the camera and opened his mouth slowly.

"Above top notch!"

"I call it an epoch-making movie!"
