Chapter 1211

Hearing the other party's words, Li Zhanshan and others couldn't help laughing.

"First of all, your question is very interesting, but your point of view is very problematic." Li Zhanshan said with a smile.

"The three major European film festivals, in the eyes of many people, are the pinnacle awards of film art. Yes, it is undeniable that the three major European film festivals used to have great influence, and they can also be said to be the dream of many filmmakers. .”

"Speaking of the three major film festivals, do you know the selection mechanism of the three major film festivals?" Li Zhanshan asked with a smile.

"Why is the Hollywood Film Awards so influential? The main reason is that North American movies are so strong. On the other hand, we have to talk about the selection mechanism. The Hollywood Film Awards are eligible to vote for more than 6000 judges. , This makes the nomination of the Hollywood Film Awards begin to become more authoritative. Even if the Hollywood Film Awards does not object to public relations, more than 6000 judges may not be able to get nominations so easily if they think of public relations. Even if it is publicized, you still can't predict the final winner in advance, there are too many influencing factors, because of uncertainty and mystery, so even if the Hollywood Awards accept public relations, they are still representatives of authority." Li Zhanshan said.

"As for the three major European film festivals, their selection mechanism is simpler. It is so simple that many judges can affect the ownership of the awards. For the key awards, they only have no more than 10 judges to vote for the final result.

The difference between the jury chairmen of the three major film festivals each year will also affect the types of award-winning films of the year. The three major film festivals are more likely to be recognized by some more authoritative people, rather than a large number of films. people's approval. "

"So, the three major film festivals represent film art? This is too shallow." Li Zhanshan shook his head and said.

"In fact, this involves a cognitive problem. There are many A-type film festivals in the world. The three major film festivals in Europe are so influential that they are even called the palace of film art. Years ago, Hollywood movies were not that strong at that time, on the contrary, the European film market was relatively good at that time."

"However, are those films participating in European film festivals really just to gain artistic recognition? I don't think that's the case, but because, as long as they win an award, it means that the film can be sold abroad. "Li Zhanshan said with a little sarcasm.

"But now why do the three major film festivals in Europe seem to have less influence?" Li Zhanshan asked again.

"Because European films have declined. Nowadays, whether it's commercial films or art films, what do we see and hear more? The art is Hollywood's Oscars, and commercial films are the box office. It's a special effect."

"In my opinion, art and commerce complement each other for a country's film market. The reason why Hollywood's Oscars are famous all over the world is actually inseparable from the operation of commerce. I believe many people know that the Oscar The Academy Awards are actually not that pure, the Academy Awards need to spend money on public relations, doesn’t that sound ironic?” Li Zhanshan said with a sarcastic smile.

"Oscar Awards, looking at the nominated and winning films, which one did not cost millions or even tens of millions of dollars in public relations expenses? To some extent, you can see it as art, It also needs money to buy and public relations, but many people look down on commercial films, which is a very ironic thing, for example, the Oscars, North American Academy of Film and Art, although they did not publicly encourage public relations, but the rules are there , you don’t have public relations, why let those who have never watched your movie vote for you?”

"Similarly, European film festivals are also getting closer to Oscars. There are really fewer and fewer awards purely for movies, so..."

"It's too shallow to say that our domestic literary and artistic films have declined just because they have not been recognized by the European Film Festival." Li Zhanshan shook his head and said.

"Let's talk about why our domestic films have rarely won the awards of the three major European film festivals in these years? Is it the decline of literary films? Not so, but because of what were the films that won awards in the early years? Many films even None of them have been approved by the state. They were all photographed secretly and then used for awards. Why did this happen? The reason is that Europeans at that time, what did they like to see? It was because the rural areas of our country were so backward. How distorted human nature is and how ignorant the people are, these films themselves are of no help to Chinese films."

"Movie itself is an audio-visual art, but at the same time, it is also a window for publicity. I am not saying that that kind of movie cannot be made, but it depends on your original intention for shooting? If it is only for winning awards, it is for What's the point of making this kind of movie to please foreign judges?"

As he said that, Li Zhanshan said with a look of resentment: "We have many directors who can actually make good movies, but at that time, in the domestic market, it was impossible to make movies profitable, so there were many directors. Go abroad, participate in the three major film festivals, and then sell abroad, literature? Art? That’s all skin, the real thing is money.”

Lin Xiao, Qin Gang and others all looked at each other in blank dismay, how dare you say it!

However, yes, only Li Zhanshan, an older generation with incomparably profound qualifications and a master himself, dared to speak so bluntly.

Even Lin Xiao would not directly criticize those people on such an occasion. Don't underestimate those people. After all, those people are the directors of the older generation of Huaguo, and their power should not be underestimated.

And the point is, Li Zhanshan can say that because Li Zhanshan has the qualifications, and they can only be ostriches if they are scolded, because Li Zhanshan is the grand slam of the three major film festivals.

If it was Lin Xiao, they might say that the grapes are sour if they can't eat grapes, but Li Zhanshan, they can eat them.

"Okay, thank you Director Li for your wonderful answer, then the next question." The host was also a little surprised by Li Zhanshan's outspoken words, which are definitely offensive words.

"The female classmate in the third row." The host ordered another female classmate, she was quite pretty, um.

"I want to ask Director Lin Xiao, we all know that Director Lin's films can be very popular even in North America, and Director Lin has made a few films in North America before and achieved very good results, so what I want to ask Yes, how did you do it? I mean, how do you deal with the cultural differences between the East and the West? How do you judge which Eastern cultures are acceptable to Westerners and which Western cultures are acceptable to us Easterners? Woolen cloth?"
