Chapter 224

After this meeting, Chen Xi was completely sure... He chose to participate in this meeting, which was actually asking for trouble. These guys really went too far.

A meeting was held without embarrassment. After the meeting, I greeted Chen Xi. There were not many directors who talked to them...

On the contrary, a few big directors are relatively better, but their attitude towards Chen Xi is also uneven... It seems that this group of people are dissatisfied with Chen Xi for some reason, and those big directors are purely Because they feel that Chen Xi can't really come into their sight for the time being, so they attach great importance to it.

After all, in the Chinese film circle... In fact, even in the film circles of the whole world, the box office is not really what determines a director's status in the director circle. Of course, the box office is very important, but everyone needs to have While building something, I also get other things... This thing is mainly awards!Film awards are very attractive to most filmmakers, especially some big film awards.

For directors in the circle, film awards are something rich in technical content, and this is also a strong supplement to their status. If a director wins an important film award, the film The status of the film and the director will rise a lot accordingly. For a director, what awards he has won for directing a film is a kind of hard power!

So, even though Chen Xi has achieved quite good results at the box office, he has hardly made any achievements in film festivals... It's not that he has to win awards in international film festivals such as Cannes to be influential... ...But you also need to win awards in the three major film festivals in the Chinese world, right?

Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers, Hong Kong Film Awards, and Taiwan Golden Horse Awards, among the three major film festivals in the Chinese world, Chen Xi has never won an award. This has indeed greatly affected his status in the world...

The award at the Toronto Film Festival, for everyone, they are selectively ignoring it for the time being, because the film has not yet been released, and the Midnight Madness competition still has a taste of madness, anyway, everyone does not think about it A special cold has affected the current evaluation of Chen Xi in China. At least in the mainstream film circle, everyone basically has a specious attitude towards Chen Xi. Anyway, on the whole, Chen Xi is far from being a Truly became a big director in the mainstream circle...

Chen Xi saw Zhang Yimou and others taking advantage of the gap to play cards, and now a few people came to talk to Chen Xi, but generally speaking, there were not many people who talked to him, even if they came up to talk, they only said three sentences Inseparable from interests.

Chen Xi met Zhuang Guofei at this time. Zhuang Guofei didn't come in the morning, but he came now.

After Zhuang Guofei saw Chen Xi, he walked towards Chen Xi with his hands behind his back. He looked at Chen Xi's face. Chen Xi didn't intend to lower his head to dodge this kind of gaze. At that moment, Chen Xi raised his head to meet him At this moment, Zhuang Guofei seemed to sneer a little and said, "You are Chen Xi, right?"

Chen Xi nodded, but he didn't pay much attention to these things. In fact, he is a person who doesn't like expressing malice to others first, but he will fight back when others express malice.

In front of so many people today, Chen Xi also gave the old senior a face, and then said: "Director Zhuang, hello, I have admired your name for a long time!"

Zhuang Guofei ignored Chen Xi, turned around and left, only leaving Chen Xi's back in sight, and at the same time, Zhuang Guofei's words were still floating in the air in front of him: "Young man, learn the basic skills well before you come! Don't think that A few soft words will do the trick.”

If it weren't for the crowds here, Chen Xi would hate to be able to swear. Zhuang Guofei has already offended him. His hatred surged up like never before, and now he wished that Zhuang Guofei would be ruined...Of course, this kind of anger gradually disappeared after that, but some seeds were planted in his heart.

Many other people are also paying attention to Chen Xi and the others at this moment. Naturally, many people have seen the previous scene. Everyone has their own thoughts, but there is absolutely no lack of some people who think that Chen Xi is just now. He wanted to be forgiven by groveling, but he was stopped.

There was even a bit of sarcasm in everyone's eyes, which made Chen Xi's heart even more angry, but he forcibly suppressed it, because now the best time to get angry has passed.

... The symposium continues in the afternoon. The main topic this afternoon is the artistic and commercial progress of Chinese films in the past year... This kind of topic is really not aimed at Chen Xi, after all, every There will be similar things every year. In China, and even in the whole world, the commerciality and artistry of movies are also a permanent topic, and they are often brought up with new things. Everyone clearly understands this.

For this afternoon's report, Chen Xi was not assigned anything, so he was only in his own position. After all, everyone was in the same circle, and when he reached this position, he could basically have some experience in the inner and outer circles. Therefore, the scene was relatively quiet, and there was no noise or noise, and no one was playing with their mobile phones or anything. Anyway, only the voices of the speakers were left at the scene.

After finishing this kind of report, it was time for discussion again, so this discussion also appeared in front of everyone's eyes, but it was because of this kind of discussion that Chen Xi felt that she was about to explode.

Because now it's time for Zhuang Guofei to speak.

"In the past year, I think the process of commercialization of our movies has accelerated a lot...even to a point beyond normal. Of course, in the past time, we have also seen some movies with word-of-mouth and The box office is not bad, but there are some movies that seem to surprise people at the box office, but if you look at the quality of the movie carefully, I can only say that it is very worrying! Especially "33 Days of Broken Love", maybe I am behind In the era, but I really can't find any shining places in this so-called movie. The lengthy rhythm like a TV series makes people sigh, which makes us a little suspicious. What are young people doing now? After all, people who have not received an orthodox education have no feelings for what they make, and they don’t care about movies at all, they’re just a pile of rubbish!”

Such words made Chen Xi instantly feel that the pores on her body were about to explode, and the hairs on her body stood on end, because she was so angry!

Chinese people usually pay attention to face and face when doing things. It should be an unspoken rule that most people should abide by in this kind of forum. After all, there are some conflicts and other things that can be discussed in private. Solve, if it is put in this kind of public place, it will really tear the face, almost to the point of irreparable.

And being scolded in front of so many people... No matter how well-bred Chen Xi is, he can't stand it... Of course, it's mainly because of his current ability... If he is a small director and has no reputation at all, then he will be scolded so badly Forget it, no capital...but now?
Chen Xi is the only director born in the 80s in China with a movie box office of more than 3000 million. He is also one of the top ten directors in China in terms of commercial achievements, and he is still so young!

Although it is true that he has not won convincing awards in the Chinese film industry, these... cannot be the reason why he was slapped in the face and did not fight back.

However, after Zhuang Guofei said these words, some people actually applauded in agreement, and there were quite a few people applauding, which caused a crackling sound, which made Chen Xi's anger rush to the extreme. At the moment, Chen Xiteng With a bang, he stood up directly.

"I would like to ask, Zhuang Guofei, pretending to be a senior, um, it is enough to pretend! What does it mean to be like a TV series instead of a movie? Is my duration a TV series? Is my narrative a TV series? Especially your sentence, I remind you , China's directing department is not unique to Beijing Film Academy, what do you mean by orthodox education?"

Many people were shocked by Chen Xi's standing up. Many people didn't expect Chen Xi to be so straightforward at a time like this, standing up directly at the risk of a lot, and what he said was so aggressive.

The first few sentences are fine, but he has no way to answer the last sentence... Indeed, in China, the unwritten unspoken rule is that Beiying is Zhengshuo, but the problem is that these things cannot be said on the surface Yes, otherwise, so many other schools also have directing departments, so are they all just decorations?

At the moment, Zhuang Guofei was a little speechless on the last point, but he quickly cheered up, but what he said had gone in another direction: "33 Days of Broken Relationship is by no means a good movie. It seems that you can be proud of it, but it will lead more directors to this evil path, so, as a filmmaker, don't you feel ashamed?"

When Zhuang Guofei's words came out, many people secretly frowned.

Once he answered quite badly, not to mention that he had no way to answer Chen Xi's first question and had to move to the next question, but in fact, his other question itself was a self-defeating thing , Chen Xi, is this really a lack of artistry?So what about Zhang Yimou's films?Golden Armor, Promise or something, that's not...
