Hong Kong Entertainment: Kung Fu Superstar 1981

Chapter 283 Accusations and Farce

The female film critic's sudden words undoubtedly poured cold water on the heated atmosphere.

For a moment, everyone stared at her subconsciously, and Bao En's face looked a little ugly.

Only Zhang Yang himself still had a smile on his face and looked like he was listening attentively.

Realizing that he was being watched by countless people at the scene, the film critic remained calm.

She said softly: "Mr. Zhang, I don't know if you have realized that after watching the entire film, in my eyes, it is just a simple and mindless violence show. The plot of the film is full of shallowness and boredom. I dare not "Imagine the protagonist's sincere feelings for his wife, but you didn't describe it at all, you just used her as a tool on the screen."

"Compared to those films with wonderful stories and plots, your film is like a bubble wrapped in a cardboard box. Its only function is to be squeezed by people when they are in a daze and boredom. Moreover, the entire film is full of violent scenes with messy fireworks. Everyone looks like a brainless lunatic who only knows how to pull the trigger. I don’t think this kind of movie is worth everyone’s money to buy tickets for.”

After a series of machine gun blasts, the film critic proudly threw the microphone back to Bowen, showing a haughty look.

Obviously, she felt that she had poked Zhang Yang's weak spot to pieces, and now she just wanted to wait for Zhang Yang to get angry and let her break his guard. It would be better if he was so angry that he gave her two more slaps, so that she could get All topics and concerns.

But what disappointed her was that after listening to her words, Zhang Yang's expression was still very calm.

He was much calmer than most of the audience in the theater.

In fact, after reading anecdotes about Pauline Kael and George Lucas, Zhang Yang already knew the tone of American film critics. Indeed, most film critics are impartial, although they are inevitably subjective. But they will still try their best to describe the advantages and disadvantages.

And this cannot stop some maverick "film critics" who will deliberately step on the opposite side of the public to show their uniqueness and superiority in order to gain attention. After all, they do not know how to produce works. This kind of maverick Unconventional methods are undoubtedly their best way to attract attention.

Black and red are also red.

Even if it just attracts a group of people who claim to be independent, it can make it easier for them to make money, right?
As for the "film critics" who have this purpose, Zhang Yang knows very well that if he really gets angry with them and follows their lead, then he will really lose completely. After all, messing around is their field, and Zhang Yang is not good at it.

So under Bowen's worried eyes, Zhang Yang picked up the microphone.

"I believe you and I have many different views on the art of film, Miss."

"As a practitioner, movies for me have always been to serve the wider public of movie fans. I don't like to chase the so-called artistry and awards. I just hope that everyone has spent money and bought a ticket to sit in the theater. People there can either laugh or get excited because of my film, making their experience worth their ticket price."

"Yes, I don't deny that the plot of the film may have the gap you mentioned from a professional perspective compared to films that specialize in plot, but I don't think everyone who sits in the theater wants to stare at the big screen. He racked his brains to keep up with the various logical traps set by the director for the so-called wonderful plot."

"I believe that the movie fans here are the same. If they want to experience the joy of using their brains, they can spend their own money to buy tickets and choose movies with more rigorous plots. I will not force them to give my movies rave reviews. .”

"You know, Miss, when selling tickets at the theater windows facing the public, the categories of the movies will be displayed." "And my mission is to help those who see the categories of action movies and gunfight movies, and then make up their minds to buy tickets. , service for movie fans who are willing to pay for tickets only if they want to experience an exciting action scene and gunfight scene. At this point, I believe that my film will not disappoint any of your expectations. If you don’t want to Believe me, I can let the people on site give you the answer.”

After a pause, Zhang Yang raised the microphone and asked loudly to the fans present.

"Hey, everyone, if you're here for the action and gunfights, can you tell me if you're satisfied with it?"

As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, a burst of cheers erupted from the scene.

"Satisfied! Of course I am satisfied!"

"Hahaha, honestly speaking, this is the best gun battle and action movie I have seen this year. It should be iconic!"

"Mr. Zhang is right. Not everyone goes to the cinema to pursue plot and artistic value. We just want to watch such pure and extremely exciting action movies!"

"Hey, don't be misled! Even if this movie is just a simple action movie and gunfight movie, it undoubtedly has extremely high artistic value. Who has seen such an action movie before? This movie It’s revolutionary! It’s enough to become a model for all gunfight and action movies! It’s enough to be used as a textbook to teach subsequent directors. Isn’t this art enough?”

"Yes, this film is both a commercial film and a revolutionary action art piece!"

"This guy doesn't understand anything at all! Call her down early, don't waste time, I have more important questions!"

"I also have a better question. Tell her to get out of here and hire an ophthalmologist for her so that she can open her eyes wide and see clearly the categories of movies before she walks into the cinema next time!"

"Hahaha, instead of paying for the eye surgery, maybe you should hire a teacher for her. He may just not know the words for action movies or gunfight movies. In short, tell her to get out of here!"

"Get out!" "Get out!"

Amidst the shouts from the audience in the theater, the "film critic" who had just launched an attack suddenly turned red and clenched her fists. She shouted: "You don't understand anything at all!" The security guards called by Bowen stood up.

After ending this somewhat unexpected farce, Bowen turned his attention to Samantha sitting in the corner.

How to naturally bring out the key point of the interview, the King of Fighters Competition, they had already discussed in advance. Now, while the atmosphere in the theater is hot, it is just the right time to enter this key part.

"Next, let's invite friends from the media industry to go on stage for interviews. I believe they will provide some more valuable questions than the accident just now. So let's invite the lady in the corner to come on stage."

Amidst Bowen's playful banter, Samantha walked out from the back row and came to the front of the stage.
