At first, I just wanted to make money

"It's just going up alone to share your experience..."

Xu Zheng answered: "The last time I shared my viewing experience of "Yulu" at Xiaoxitian's art theater...

I remember that the lamp that illuminated us was a stage lamp used in a drama, and it was as hot as an oven when it shone on people's faces!My sweat is swelled outside like oil...it's too hot to die! "

""Yulu"?" "Jia Zhangke's documentary..."

Another documentary...

No wonder Lao Jia's technique is not good. When you shoot a documentary, you must use a long shot, so keep taking a long shot!
"Lao Jia should do what a director should do all day long. Look at Zhang Yimou, and now he has started two movies..."

"Two parts?"

"Yes, "The Great Buddha" and "Lu Yanshi", "The Great Buddha" is a script written by me, and "Lu Yanshi" is Yan Geling's script..."

"The Great Buddha...What is the plot?"

"It's a homicide caused by a driving recorder... It's just a literary film..."

Shen Xudong roughly talked about the plot of "Big Buddha". The male protagonist Awang is a garbage collector, and his friend Brother Qiang is the night shift guard of the factory. Both of them have no money and time is worthless, so they decided to peek at the boss Huang Qiwen Driving recorder, to pass the time.

Then, through the driving recorder, I saw the world of the rich and witnessed a murder...

This story sounds meaningless, Shen Xudong said a word: "I mentioned a concept, director Zhang Yi immediately became interested!"

"What concept?"

"The world of the poor is black and white, but the world of the rich is colorful..."

"Drawing two different worlds through the driving recorder?"

"correct!"

Ning Hao nodded frantically: "No wonder... if it was me, I would take the picture too."

"...You don't do "No Man's Land" anymore?"

Ning Hao glanced at Xu Zheng, and then said: "I'm doing it... I wanted Xu Zheng to lose 60 catties, but he won't do it... Then I'll find Zhu Yilong!"

Xu Zheng explained: "No, I'm going to shoot "Modern Times" and "Meet Your Father-in-Law" soon...I must ensure my current body shape..."

Shen Xudong scratched his head: "...Zhu Yilong's acting skills are a bit jerky... Let's find another one, you can find Deng Chao or Zhang Yi..."

"I've talked with Zhu Yilong..."

"Forget it, remember to grind it hard..."

Xu Zheng interjected: "Is "Lost in Thailand" released in early December?"

"Well... on December 12th, and "One Mirror to the End" on December 7nd... two comedies dominate the Lunar New Year file!"

"But I heard that Feng Xiaogang's "1942" will be released in December?"

"Come on, that movie is good, but... the plot is too miserable, and it's Chinese New Year's Eve, no one will watch it..."

……

The forum for young directors sounds very high-end and serious, but in fact, each of them pretends to be aggressive and promotes their own movies by the way.

For example, Guan Hu said, ""Killing Life" is currently in the late stage, and I am going to work with Yang Yangshupeng's "Pi Fu", not alone. This is good for our film, and it should have been done together long ago.Just because Hollywood movies come in doesn't mean you're dead, now there's a little too much emphasis on Hollywood blockbusters. '

Then Yang Shupeng said, "The incense of domestic films must be maintained by ourselves! Wouldn't it be fatal to compete with Hollywood in industrial technology? The way I want to go is to make stylized commercial films.

This road is difficult to walk, but it has to be walked.In fact, including Guan Hu and Zhang Yang, we are all doing such things.

The main reason is that those old directors in China have no bottom line, and they shoot that kind of costume blockbusters every now and then, one after another, I almost collapsed watching it.

Of course, I'm not saying that you can't shoot, but at least you should have something new.Take a look at what they filmed, it’s a waste of money, it’s not good-looking, and it’s not aesthetically innovative. It’s fine if you want to make "Ran" and "Shadow Warrior" like foreign ones, but here we only talk about half-text , What does "I want to take your life" mean? "

Zhang Yang said: "Choose the May [-]st film at the end of April, at least everyone's competition is benign, we have no harm or slander, no trolls 'hacking' each other, together to retain fans, stick to the signboard of domestic films, this is Our common mission."

Speaking of which... it's pretty good.

It can be seen that these people still have confidence in their own works.

Then Lu Chuan came out—there were rumors that "The King's Feast" was difficult to deliver...

Because I can't pass the trial...

What nonsense, what can't pass a trial for a costume film that talks about a meal?

Lu Chuan was very aggrieved: "Can Chinese movies and Hollywood blockbusters be given a fair starting line for competition? Why can we consume history but not face it squarely?"

"We were originally scheduled to release on July 7th, but now we can't. I heard that it is to pave the way for a film invested by China Film Group..."

Then I cried: "The producer has always given me the greatest support, and I once thought it was right to use the producer's money. But this filming of "The King's Feast" was very touching, and I learned a lot from this film." Things, I can no longer have a coquettish mentality, what we are facing is a steel giant, we must be strong. I will use an industrial method to do the next play without being coquettish..."

Shen Xudong was a little speechless, and touched Xu Zheng's elbow: "He seems to cry every time!"

Xu Zheng nodded...he didn't look at him at all—a bunch of 'young directors' next to him were all staring at Shen Xudong.

Shen Xudong was thinking, too, that Lu Chuan cried on different occasions—he has a bit of acting syndrome.

Ning Hao couldn't watch it any longer, and whispered: "The movie released on July 7, invested by China Film Group, doesn't it sound familiar to you?"

"…What the hell?"

"Our company's "Painted Skin 2"!"

Shen Xudong instantly understood: "I'm stupid, this bastard scolded me!"

Then the host Yin Hong glanced at Shen Xudong: "Director Shen, do you have anything to say?"

Shen Xudong helped his frame: "...can I say it too?"

"...Aren't you ready?"

"It's okay..." Shen Xudong got up straight away, took the microphone, and smiled: "When I was in school, for a while, many media boasted about the director of "Looking for a Gun", saying that he was a young talent and a leading Chinese director, so I rented him. I picked up a disc and looked at it... that's it? Is this thing also a youth leader? To be honest, I once doubted my ability to appreciate beautiful things... Later, I chatted with the teacher, and the teacher said something like, "This is a movie about this guy." Don't look at it, just two words: Pretending to be aggressive!'"

"Actually, my understanding of pretense has always been quite positive. Art requires pretense, and Li Bai is quite capable of pretense. Everyone goes to Lushan Mountain to play, and when they see a waterfall, they will say, "Wow, what a big water!" ", as far as he was pretending to be aggressive, he wanted to say, "Flying down three thousand feet, it is suspected that the Milky Way falls nine days"!"

"Art is used to pretend. It's not just art; as long as it can make a person appear a little different from others, a little more interesting, and a little more unique expression, it is suspected of pretending!" "

"But pretense is not the same as awesomeness. If you think you are really awesome, you pay for it yourself or borrow money to make a movie. If you lose money or make money, it will be your own. Don't take the investor's money as money. If you think If you are really awesome, you can make a film for yourself to watch, don’t care if others don’t understand, close the door, let yourself let it go, and let yourself be moved by watching it!
Cry him for three days and three nights!
If you think you are a literary artist, go to win awards, don’t worry about money, if you want to go to the box office, you should honestly serve the audience. Now going to the cinema is an act of entertainment, just for fun, not for education, not for improving art grade!

Things in the Forbidden City have much higher taste than yours. Don’t always think that you are superior to the audience. I want to convince you once you can shoot Farewell My Concubine!
The question is, did you get it?The entire "Nanjing!Nanjing! "Still standing in the perspective of Japanese people?What's wrong, you are not Chinese?

It is not what you say that defines you, but what you do.

The same is true for directors. We don’t have to take it too seriously no matter how much we talk about other than his work. What can define him, in the final analysis, is the work itself. "

"In addition, "Painted Skin 2" announced last year that it will be released on July 7th. Tell me clearly, what obstacles have been cleared? Don't think I don't know. If you haven't finished the post-production, you can say that you haven't finished the post-production. Shoot a 5 A movie with a cost of more than 1 million yuan, and you still have a coquettish mentality? Is the investor your father?"

"Restore history? How can you say restore history? After reading a few local novels, you dare to say that you face history? Have you read "Han Shu"? How about we have a debate?"
