Chapter 1205 The Story of the Prodigal Son Turning Back?
Although there are a lot of people discussing it, there are praises and criticisms, and there are hot topics, but rural films are still not the mainstream of the market. Although the box office of "Warm Spring" and "Hidden in the Dust" is naturally nothing compared to commercial blockbusters, But for local films, the box office success of the two films has exceeded [-] million, but it has already caught many people's eyes.

After all, it can be said that these two films have nothing to do except the director Li Yi.

And it's a country piece.

It is recognized that rural films are not suitable for the commercial market.

Even "Into the Dust" and even "Warm Spring" are considered to be the best local films in recent years, but they still haven't really exploded to a high box office.

The popularity of "Into the Dust and Smoke" is not low for those commercial blockbusters, but literary films are always literary films, and local films are always local films.

This kind of movie has never been very popular in the mainstream market.

For Li Yi, it was enough.

In fact, a film like "Into the Dust" is more appropriate to go for awards, but Li Yi has no idea of ​​taking this film to foreign film festivals for awards.

To be honest, he doesn't particularly like to use this kind of film to win awards abroad.

In fact, several major overseas film festivals have sent invitations to Li Yi, but Li Yi still declined.

Whether he can win an award is one thing, the key point is that he doesn't like this kind of movie to make irresponsible remarks to foreigners.

Those directors of literary and artistic films who won awards in the early years were criticized by some people. It is not unreasonable. You can make such films, but it is actually not suitable to take them abroad.

At least from the perspective of a Chinese, it is indeed inappropriate.

In fact, in the early days of the film's release, Li Yi still needed to be busy showing his face and promoting the film, but after the film was released and the topic became popular, he basically didn't go out to promote it.

This kind of movie is different from ordinary commercial movies. The point of publicity is actually very limited. At the same time, it is also because of the limitation of the subject matter. Therefore, although the box office is considered good or even outstanding among movies of the same type, it is actually the same.

Li Yi started to salt fish again.

If there is less entertainment, everyone will continue to do the same, but recently it has been more interesting.

Suddenly several big melons broke out, a certain actor cheated, a certain actress became good, etc., and a very strange topic unexpectedly broke out.

The prodigal son will never change his money!
Yes, that's the topic.

It's a very strange topic. The key point is that this time the topic of the so-called prodigal son's return is not about men, but about women.

Because of several notorious female stars, they are rehabilitated!
As a result, a lot of news about whitewashing these female stars appeared on the Internet.

And the reason why this topic was sparked was because, after the negative news broke out, quite a few male actors went cold.

This sparked a series of discussions about the different encounters of men and women in this regard.

"In the past, it was said that the prodigal son will not be exchanged for money, and he was talking about men, but now it seems to be talking about women?"

"Actually, the prodigal son turns his head and doesn't change his money. It's the same as putting down the butcher's knife and becoming a Buddha. If you make too many mistakes, are you the one who turns back when you want?"

"Then why are those female stars okay? Marry ordinary people, marry honest people, and then turn around as prodigal girls, right?"

"."

In that respect, it's really interesting.

Li Yi also chatted about this topic with a group of friends during a small gathering.

"Actually, the key is not that the prodigal son turns back or the prodigal girl turns back, but the entertainment industry!"

"That's right. As far as the entertainment industry is concerned, their endings are actually the same. Those female artists, after getting married, gradually fade out of the entertainment industry. The same is true for men, but the way of fading out is different."

"It still depends on the definition of a prodigal son. What exactly is a prodigal son?"

"Hey, just look at the current film and television works, who still likes to watch the so-called play of the prodigal son?"

"There are still, right? However, the key is to return to the original topic. The prodigal son also depends on what kind of prodigal son he is, and what have you done?"

"That's right, there were several movies with the main theme before, and many of them were "prodigal sons turning around" and becoming heroes. However, some prodigal sons can't be forgiven for doing things even if they turn around."

"Some small mistakes can be made, but big mistakes are irreversible."

"."

"People can't do wrong things. Once they do wrong, they may never turn over for the rest of their lives!"

Suddenly Li Yi blurted out, subconsciously.

Everyone looked at Li Yi, with weird eyes.

"Why are you all looking at me like this?" Li Yi was speechless.

"I know you so well? Could it be?" Everyone looked at Li Yi with malicious intent.

Li Yi rolled his eyes, he really thought of this sentence suddenly.

However, this is not what he came up with, but a line in a movie.

The same is about the story of the prodigal son's return, but this movie is completely different from other stories of the prodigal son's return.

In other stories, the prodigal son will be forgiven when he turns back, but in this movie, when the prodigal son wants to turn back, it is already too late.

Suddenly Li Yi said: "You said that if a man cheated on his wife while she was pregnant, can such a man turn his prodigal son back?"

Chen Weijie and others looked at Li Yi strangely.

"Ahem, don't look at me like that!" Li Yi said with a black line on his forehead.

"I think it should be okay?" Chen Wen asked with some hesitation.

Now everyone's weird eyes turned to Chen Wen.

"What about you? What do you think? Xuexiang, from the perspective of a woman, what do you think?" Li Yi looked at Chu Xuexiang again and asked.

"If it's just a one-off affair, I think it depends on the person. Most women will choose to forgive, right?" Chu Xuexiang pondered for a moment and said.

In the end, Li Yi said again: "Then what if this man fights violently after cheating on his wife and arguing with his wife, and even knocks her down the stairs, causing premature delivery?"

"That must be impossible to forgive!"

"No, you are not a prodigal son, this is completely." Chen Weijie didn't know what words to use to describe it.

This time, even this group of elders felt that such behavior was unforgivable.

"Even if he changes it?" Li Yi asked again.

"As you said before, if you do something wrong, you can't turn back. How can you change it? The biggest damage has already been done, how can the broken mirror be reunited?"

"Then tell me, how do you make a character like this, everyone knows that he is a bad man and a scumbag. It's just that there is no way to dislike or even like this film and television character?"

"How is this possible?" Now everyone shook their heads.

Li Yi sighed, this is an old movie he just remembered, the hero in this movie is such a scumbag, no one will think him good, and no one wants to find such a boyfriend!But it's hard to hate this person simply by watching the movie.

That's the beauty of being an actor.

Of course, the reason why that movie became a classic is not that this story tells the story of a prodigal son, but that the story is originally about the tragedy of a prodigal son. He really does not deserve to be forgiven, so he paid in the end. He paid a painful price, but such a prodigal son is really attractive to girls.The movie is to tell men, even if you look handsome and attractive, bohemian youth will pass, don't be a prodigal son, don't be the one who regrets, because regret can't undo anything.

But such a movie is really not easy to make, just like what Li Yi said before, everyone obviously hates this person, and they all know that this person is not worthy of forgiveness and sympathy, but they just don't hate this character.

Therefore, such an actor is really difficult to find.
