A different director [entertainment circle]

Like the actors, he is simple and low-key, and hardly appears in public except for making movies.

Xi Qianqian and Xie Beiyang didn't seem to care at all, no matter how many risks you say, they have no worries.

"You two are relying on me, right?" Qin Yan cursed with a low smile, but everyone could see the joy on his face.

"You can say whatever you like." This is Xi Qianqian.

"Well, it's up to you." This is Xie Beiyang.

Now that he had made up his mind, Qin Yan, the activist, immediately started discussing the company's affairs with them.

Qin Yan is not going to set up a brokerage company by himself, and then sign Xi Qianqian and Xie Beiyang, which is unfair to them.

Qin Yan's plan is that Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian use their own contract as investment, and then he provides funds and resources, and the three of them each hold shares in the entertainment company they founded.

Who is in charge of the operation, the shareholding ratio, the company's main business, whether other actors are signed, the legal person of the company... Qin Yan explained in detail because there are too many pitfalls in the company's operations.

How many people leave a hole in the contract for equity or shareholders' meeting when they set up a company.After a few years, when the company grows, it will be easy to ruin the like-minded friends at the beginning.

Qin Yan thought that Xi Qianqian and Xie Beiyang must not be disadvantaged, and explained every problem in detail.

But things in the business field are quite complicated, and Xi Qianqian's brain almost exploded when he heard it: "I said, Master Qin, can you stop reciting scriptures! You can do whatever you say, can you?"

Qin Yan didn't care about Xi Qianqian's resistance, even if Xi Qianqian would be the shopkeeper in the future, but Qin Yan insisted on finishing speaking.

He originally thought that it would be a one-man show by himself, but he didn't expect that Xie Beiyang was quite familiar with capital and the operation of the company, and he was not just talking on paper, he actually communicated with Qin Yan about the future direction of the entertainment company.

For example, now that the company has a business scope, Qin Yan was discussing how to determine the business scope just now.As a result, Xie Beiyang immediately proposed the evasion method of the parent company and the subsidiary company, and also asserted that the regulations on the company's business scope would definitely be revised in the future.

When Xie Beiyang discussed these issues, he was quite confident and familiar.It was only then that Qin Yan remembered that Xie Beiyang was a top student in the Finance Department of Pingda University.

Moreover, Xie Beiyang was originally born in a businessman's family, and since he was a child, he has watched his father and elder brother do business, which can be regarded as being influenced by his ears and eyes.

Qin Yan and Xi Qianqian directly waved their hands, preparing to make Xie Beiyang a major shareholder, and then let him find the company's operating team.

Xie Beiyang, who was talking eloquently just now, scratched his head.In fact, he was worried that he was not proficient enough in business and restricted the company's development, so he originally wanted to decline.

But thinking that Qin Yan is already busy just making movies, if the matter of the agency company is pushed to Qin Yan, Qin Yan may really die suddenly, and this is not the life Qin Yan wants.

Xie Beiyang knew that Qin Yan wanted to make movies more quietly and purely. All social and business activities were not Qin Yan's purpose, but only necessary means for making movies.

I don't know why Xie Beiyang suddenly felt a secret distress and sense of responsibility in his heart.He can't be like a child, waiting for Qin Yan to arrange everything for him, enjoying and being lazy with peace of mind.

He also has his own responsibilities and goals, and he also wants to make Qin Yan relax.

So Xie Beiyang said decisively: "Leave this matter to me. I'll go back and ask my brother to see what he thinks."

Looking at the various complex emotions that suddenly appeared in Xie Beiyang's eyes, Qin Yan was stunned. He didn't expect that his "Director Qin" would be loved by others one day.

However, he didn't seem to hate this strange experience at all.

"Okay." There was a hint of pride in Qin Yan's voice.

Xi Qianqian originally wanted to say something, but as an actor, her keen insight told her that keeping quiet at this time was the greatest contribution to their company.

So Xi Qianqian silently picked up a piece of salmon, dipped it in soy sauce and wasabi.

Why does the soy sauce in this store look like vinegar?Damn sour smell!

Qin Yan didn't realize how much trouble and opportunity it would bring Xie Beiyang to be in charge of the company's operations...

-

The popularity of "Laughing Jianghu" is still getting higher day by day, and all kinds of troubles also follow.

"Laughing Jianghu" only got 300 million box office on the first day, but from the third day onwards, the box office began to soar!

In the first week, "Laughing Jianghu" directly won the weekly box office of 2 million.Become the well-deserved box office champion, and the next two won the weekly box office of 600 million and 2 million respectively!

Moreover, Qin Yan's movie was released in the third week, and another New Year's movie was also on stage. It was the movie "Mobile Phone" shot by director Feng, the No. 1 commercial film director in Huaguo.

Because the popularity of "Laughing Jianghu" has not stopped, everyone's enthusiasm for watching movies is relatively high now, and many viewers choose to go to the cinema.

So in the first week, the box office of "Mobile" did overwhelm "Laughing Jianghu".

If this trend continues, the box office of "Mobile" is likely to overtake "Laughing Jianghu".And compared to "Mobile", it only invested more than 2000 million yuan, which is far less pressure than "Laughing Jianghu".

Just when Brother Hua's company was preparing to hold a celebration party, they suddenly discovered that the evaluation of the two films by the whole society had been reversed.

At the beginning, people's expectations for "Mobile" were obviously higher than "Laughing Jianghu", but when they walked into the cinema and saw the promotional videos and posters of the two movies, especially after watching the two movies, they Only then did I realize that I liked "Laughing Jianghu" more.

Not every audience understands film technology, but they obviously prefer the martial arts world constructed by "Laughing Jianghu", especially the character costumes, fighting scenes, and dialogue lines, which will make them feel the high-level sense of the film.

After making a comparison, the box office of "Laughing Jianghu" suddenly bucked the trend and rose, which indeed fell through the glasses of many professionals.

And according to the current trend, and the upcoming Spring Festival holiday, it is definitely not a problem for the box office of "Laughing Jianghu" to exceed [-] million!

The forecasters who were not optimistic about this year's Huaguo film market have been slapped in the face, but what does it matter if they are slapped?

They immediately wrote a lot of articles touting "Laughing Jianghu", as long as someone bought their magazines, newspapers, even to read their jokes, they would be happy.

But when the whole society praises "Laughing Jianghu", these praise and praise articles are becoming more and more dull.

So the media began to fabricate some facts that did not exist from various angles to attract readers' attention.

For example, "Entertainment Weekly" found out from somewhere that Xie Beiyang was injured during filming, and immediately published a report titled "Extreme director pursues film quality regardless of actors' safety".

He even found the case of Xie Beiyang going to the hospital at that time, which caused the recent surge of Xie Beiyang's fans to be filled with righteous indignation.

The Qiandu Tieba, which was only established at the beginning of this month, immediately received the first wave of fan traffic. In the "Xie Beiyang" Tieba, Qin Yan has already been described as a heinous villain.

However, Xie Beiyang himself saw this newspaper that day, and happened to be buying lunch for the two of them that day. He took a newspaper and prepared to go back to show it to Qin Yan, and at the same time told the shopkeeper:

"I also want a mutton soup. The weather is cold recently, and soup is only warm."

While eating, Xie Beiyang showed Qin Yan the newspaper: "Do you need me to make a statement?"

Qin Yan glanced at the title, feeling bored, these methods of spreading rumors will not change for many years.

"No, just let the company's legal affairs handle it." But Qin Yan remembered another thing: "I found a chef, and I will come to cook every day in the future, so don't go out every day."

It's so cold, it hurts.

"Yes." Xie Beiyang nodded.

In order to be able to maintain the current delicate cohabitation state, the two have actually been doing stupid things, making secret concessions, and working hard on themselves...

Xie Beiyang knew that Qin Yan had long wanted to hire a long-term housekeeper, but the current room was completely insufficient, so Xie Beiyang would let him take on many jobs that he was completely unfamiliar with.

The two originally calm and smart people couldn't see through their own and each other's true thoughts.

-

The rumors that Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang had a bad relationship were quickly clarified, but this did not dispel the media's enthusiasm.Because they have already tasted the sweetness from the previous reports, the more reports that slander public figures, the more popular they are.

So some people began to criticize "Laughing Jianghu" and Qin Yan from a professional point of view——

Qin Yan's two films were able to achieve such dazzling achievements, not because Qin Yan's films were shot well, it was entirely due to luck.

Recently, there are no excellent works released in China, and the market downturn for half a year has made audiences eager to watch movies, which has contributed to Qin Yan's success.

But Qin Yan also has fans, or movie fans are more appropriate.

They immediately took out the "Matrix", "Lord of the Rings", and "Harry Potter" that were released some time ago.

"Director Qin shot a movie that we Hua people like, so everyone is willing to go to the theater to support him."

However, if everything in the world was based on strength, then the world would not be so complicated.

As a Lunar New Year file, it is also the most concentrated stage of movies this year. The explosion of word-of-mouth for "Laughing Jianghu" represents the downfall of other movies, and this has touched the interests of many people.

Movies released later than "Laughing Jianghu" also include "Mobile Phone" and "Infernal Affairs". After all, it is the only New Year's film, and everyone is willing to fight for it.

It's time for the entertainment media to compare these works together, and then all kinds of articles that praise and criticize each other emerge in endlessly.

Some reports touted "Laughing Jianghu" as a film work of the new generation, and it will crush old films that do not understand the market.

Some people also praised the abilities of well-known directors and actors, thinking that the quality can easily crush "Laughing Jianghu".

In fact, most of the writers have not seen a few movies, but this does not prevent them from telling the truth. Anyway, they know what the audience likes to watch, and it is nothing more than an open and secret struggle between the director and the actors.

Moreover, these media seemed to think that they did not make enough waves. In order to suppress Qin Yan and attract the attention of ordinary movie viewers, they directly interviewed other directors.

In the director industry, seniority ranking and mutual comparison are also obvious.No matter who makes a movie, it will always be judged and compared with its peers.

The first person they found was naturally Zhang Guoshi.

The company behind Guoshi has gained both fame and fortune through "Heroes", coupled with the success of Qin Yan's "Laughing Jianghu", it seems that martial arts is the most popular genre with the most potential in the Huaguo film market.

So under the impetus of the company behind it, especially its chairman, Zhang Guoshi had to continue filming the martial arts movie "House of Flying Daggers".

Several commercial martial arts films in succession are also the beginning of Guoshi's descent from the altar.

But these are all things for later, at least when the "House of Flying Daggers" press conference is held now, everyone believes that "House of Flying Daggers" will once again break the box office record of Huaguo movies.

It was on such a public occasion that a reporter took the initiative to stir up trouble:

"Director Zhang Guoshi, the number of Chinese martial arts movies has been increasing in recent years. Does this mean that martial arts movies will become a label for us in the international film market? In addition, "Laughing Jianghu" is also released recently, and everyone seems to have seen martial arts comedy. film's potential."

"Will "Laughing Jianghu" bring you a certain amount of pressure, and will you also consider making some slightly lighter and joyful martial arts movies?"

The first question seems quite satisfactory, and the real ultimate moves are all hidden in the second and third questions.Anyone can tell that this reporter is saying that "Laughing Jianghu" has a good box office record and a good reputation among audiences.

Not everyone's film works can go to Zhang Guoshi to touch porcelain, but Qin Yan is different.

Qin Yan's "Ancient House" achieved an astonishing box office overseas before "Heroes", and some people have compared the two works together.

And now, after a year, Qin Yan's "Laughing Jianghu" actually showed signs of challenging "Hero" at the domestic box office.

Recently, various media have compared "Hero" with "Laughing Jianghu" more than once or twice. Many people speculate that Zhang Guoshi should have been dissatisfied with Qin Yan long ago.

People with successful careers in any field are willing to be compared with fledgling young people.

As long as Zhang Guoshi utters a cruel word, tomorrow their newspapers can describe "Laughing Jianghu" as worthless garbage!

Even if Zhang Guoshi refuses to answer, their title tomorrow can be "Mention to "Laughing Jianghu", Zhang Guoshi's face is frosty, disdain to compare commercial films".

Then go to interview Qin Yan tomorrow, if Qin Yan does not accept the answer, the titles of the day after tomorrow will be "The new director is dissatisfied with the teacher's evaluation of his work", "Challenge from the new director!"...

Thinking about this series of reports makes people excited. Individual reporters have already started writing. No matter what Zhang Guoshi says, they only write reports that the audience loves to read!

But who knew Zhang Guoshi said very calmly:

"I think the two films have their own pursuits. I focus on the expression of visual art, while Qin Yan's film is pursuing a commercial rhythm. Each film has its own advantages, so please don't make comparisons."

Later, when someone asked a similar question, Zhang Guoshi left with a smile.

Everyone was surprised by Zhang Guoshi's attitude. Although Zhang Guoshi didn't say it directly, it can be seen that Zhang Guoshi recognized Qin Yan's works. They didn't know that Zhang Guoshi and Qin Yan had met in private.

However, Zhang Guoshi is also considered a good old man in the director circle, and they were not particularly disappointed with such a decent answer.

After all, they have another goal, and that is Feng Gangpao, one of the three major domestic directors and a famous "Small Steel Cannon" in the director circle.

This time the question was even more pointed, and he said directly: "Director Feng, as a leading domestic director, you lost to "Laughing Jianghu" at the box office this time. I don't know what your opinion is."

Feng Gangpao changed his usual style of non-stop life and hatred, and said with a smile:

"In terms of movies, how can we say whether we win or lose? It can only be said that Qin Yan made a work that the market prefers. I think this is a very good thing for the Huaguo film market."

"It represents that our country has huge box office potential, and it also represents that our country can produce successful commercial films. I believe that Chinese commercial films will develop faster."

Everyone was surprised by the answers of the two well-known directors. They didn't expect that they would be compared with young directors like Qin Yan. They didn't show any anger at all. This didn't conform to their usual style at all.

For these long-established directors, this is a complete shame. As a result, the two of them are not angry, and there is even some maintenance in their words.

No matter how well they take the meaning out of context and the spring and autumn style of writing, they can't point a deer into a horse.So reporters can only choose to report their words truthfully.

They also comforted themselves that the market should be surprised by such an unexpected report.Sure enough, the sales of magazines and newspapers these days are quite good.

In fact, Qin Yan was also a little surprised when he saw the relevant reports. He had a private relationship with Zhang Guoshi, and it was expected that the other party would defend himself.

Qin Yan never expected that Feng Gangpao's evaluation of him would be so good.

You must know that when "Mobile Phone" was released, it was obviously intended to step on "Laughing Jianghu" to take the lead, but in the end it was suppressed by "Laughing Jianghu".

This is not quite right!

But when Qin Yan received the invitation from Huayou Brothers later, he figured out all the key points behind it.

Feng Gangpao is not a solo director in the film market. He has his own bole and bosom friend, who are the Huayou Brothers for whom he is willing to work hard for more than 10 years.

And who is Huayou Brothers?He is a giant crocodile in the film capital market, the most sophisticated hunter.

For them, Qin Yan, the director who has made two box office miracle movies in a row and has not yet signed a contract, is a favorite.If you can sign into your company, this is the pillar of the company's future!

Especially now that Qin Yan doesn't have any films to accept investment, and on the film filing form of relevant institutions, Qin Yan's next film has passed the filing.

Who among these capitalists doesn't want to come to Qin Yan's place?

Therefore, it is completely understandable that Huayou Brothers showed their favor to Qin Yan through Feng Gangpao.

Including Huaying, I am afraid they have similar ideas.At least many media that are closely related to Huaying have been touting Qin Yan.

But in the end Qin Yan still insisted on not accepting any capital injection.

After all, Qin Yan hasn't really stood up yet, and he still doesn't have enough right to speak. Even if the capital agrees on the surface, the shooting process will not interfere with Qin Yan's creation.

But if these capitals are really allowed to come in, some things will no longer be decided by Qin Yan.

What's more interesting is that after Qin Yan rejected Huayou's olive branch, Huayou reached out to Xi Qianqian and Xie Beiyang again.

After all, Huayou is now the most mature agency in mainland China for actors and celebrities. Sister Wang, one of the partners, is even known as the first sister of Chinese-speaking brokers.

It's a pity that Xi Qianqian and Xie Beiyang have already made up their minds to start a company with Qin Yan. Not only Huayou, but many companies have been shut down.

The signing of the contract is not allowed, the capital injection is not allowed to be injected, and even the actors are not allowed to come out.In the eyes of many companies, this is completely an act of eating alone.

Big companies like Huaying and Huayou may not react particularly strongly, but some newly established companies that want to enter the film and television industry to make a fortune or launder money are not happy.

Suppressing dissidents is the answer they choose.

Even though the previous suppression had failed, they quickly found another way - to criticize the commercial nature of "Laughing Jianghu"!

Because "Laughing Jianghu" is a typical commercial film, most people will subconsciously think that the artistic level of "Laughing Jianghu" is not so outstanding.

After all, most of the time, art and business are two incompatible things.

As a result, a large number of experts and film critics appeared in the market and began to criticize "Laughing Jianghu" as a movie with no content.

Therefore, under the deliberate promotion of people with good intentions, there have been quite a few criticisms against the depth of the content of "Laughing Jianghu".

""Laughing Jianghu" is a carnival of vulgar jokes"

"The world of rivers and lakes should not only have money, but also blood and tears"

"When we are talking about Jianghu, what are we yearning for?"

……

Anyway, the report has described Qin Yan's "Laughing Jianghu" as a collection of vulgar jokes, and there is no flash of thought at all.

There are also many film workers, film critics, and scholars who have also stood up to speak: films should express humanistic care that transcends reality, instead of just vulgar jokes like "Laughing Jianghu".

Although he affirmed the commercial success of "Laughing Jianghu" in words, he also described "Laughing Jianghu" as an empty product.

Then a group of seemingly educated writers and scholars came out to stand on the platform—I don’t want to read such superficial works.With this time and money, why don't I watch other more in-depth movies to cultivate my sentiments.

It seems that "Laughing Jianghu" is a lower class, and watching "Laughing Jianghu" will be inferior to others.

In order to create such a public opinion environment, certain capitals have spent a lot of effort. They waited for Qin Yan to give up, and then injected capital into Qin Yan's new movie, signed Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian, and it would be best to acquire Hua Yan as well. .

A lot of money was spent, and the box office of "Laughing Jianghu" was indeed affected. With an investment of 4000 million, it would take at least 1.2 million to pay back. Qin Yan couldn't sit idly by.

So Qin Yan immediately contacted a professor who had a good relationship with him.

At the same time, he also approached the relevant departments of Huaying Group, and soon a very professional article appeared on the "Citizen Daily".

""Laughing Jianghu" is a story about 'social construction'"

This article has written a lot of internal connections in "Laughing Jianghu", why Han Yuanbin, Shen Qimeng, and Gu Ziwei have strong stereotyped images of Jianghu and their own lives.

The reason is that the stories from childhood to adulthood, the rumors of the rivers and lakes, and the earnest teachings of their parents have all told them this way.

What should Jianghu be like, how many good deeds should young heroes do, women should like gentle scholars, decent heads should be respected...

Speaking of these nouns, every viewer who has watched "Laughing Jianghu" will have a vivid image in their minds, a segment that makes them laugh out loud, which shows how successful the movie is in shaping the characters and plots.

But these are society's definitions and expectations of individuals

But whoever stipulates that young and handsome knights must be good at dealing with others, and they must eradicate rape and evil day after day.

Couldn't he be a shy, withdrawn, shy boy?

Who said that the best destination for a woman is romantic love, can't she have an independent and legendary life?

Although "Laughing Jianghu" seems to be just creating jokes through the gap between the stereotype and reality of martial arts works.But it actually expresses "the limitation of universal concept on people's development".

And this is the theory that emerged in the field of sociology in the 20th century-social constructionism!

Who stipulated that men must be masculine and mighty?Who stipulated that a woman must have a husband and a child?Who stipulated that the teacher must give silently?Whoever has a fixed doctor must put others first!

If it is just such a point of view, then this article is far from enough to be published in an official newspaper like "Citizen Daily", because there are more profound points of view behind——

Why the world prefers Huaguo's martial arts and rural movies is actually the Western culture's rigid and one-sided perception of Huaguo.

They believe that Huaguo should be backward and poor, and a large number of farmers still cannot afford to eat on the land of Huaguo, and they still live in dire straits.

At the same time, they envied the unbroken culture of China for thousands of years, so they only allowed powerful chivalrous men and graceful martial arts to appear in ancient times.

Why do other types of film works of Huaguo have no way out in International Mountain, because until now they still don't understand the real Huaguo.

Widows must face up to their own image problems and present another powerful and prosperous country to the Western world.

And how to achieve this, in fact, "Laughing Jianghu" also told us, that is, like Master Han, use money to smash those sects that master the rules of the world.

I believe that after Huaguo's accession to the WTO, it will be able to use its strong economic strength to wash away the misunderstanding of us by Western countries.

This is what "Laughing Jianghu" hides behind a series of jokes, and wants to express the thoughts passed down to us.

That's right, "social stereotypes" and "social constructivism" are Qin Yan's dark lines that have been hidden behind the entire script since the beginning of the script creation.

When Qin Yan was writing the script of "Laughing Jianghu" before, he had been thinking that even if it was a commercial film, he hoped to express some of his inner thoughts through it.

Just like other martial arts films, they are still trying to express various concepts such as justice and fairness, drawing swords to help each other, and helping the world.

But how to express a deep theme in a completely anti-routine comedy movie, Qin Yan thought for a long time and came to the conclusion that stereotyped images, and then rose from stereotypes to the construction theory of real society.

In fact, many film and television works discuss these propositions. For example, "Summer with Monica" in 1953 can be said to be a pioneering work, discussing women's rights issues.

Including "Big Fish" in 2003, "Green Book" in 2018, "Babel Tower" in 2006[1], etc., there are too many works with similar ideological cores.

Why do women have to get pregnant and have children?Why must softness be beautiful?Old people must be highly respected?Including why Caucasians must be more noble than people of other skin colors?

These are actually the results of the construction of the entire society, a set of concepts formed by the society, and imposed on every individual.

It's just that in other literary films, these themes are discussed more deeply, and they are also more fruitful, often tearing apart reality, allowing the audience to face these issues directly.

In fact, Qin Yan once made a similar movie.But this time he did not follow the old path, and did not choose to use a preaching method to tell the audience how to perceive the world and how to judge each unique individual.

Qin Yan put on this profound theme two coats that ordinary people can't even imagine - martial arts and drama.

He told everyone in the world of "Laughing Jianghu": The rules of the world we know from the scriptures, the rumors of the rivers and lakes, and the education of parents and elders are not necessarily correct.

Everyone has their own choices, and everyone has their own uniqueness.

And this is the dark line that Qin Yan has always buried in "Laughing Jianghu" - breaking the worldly concept.

When the script was written, Qin Yan told Xie Beiyang and the others about this hidden line.Everyone was amazed by Qin Yan's idea, no one felt that there was any abruptness.

So when someone showed all this in front of the audience, the audience realized: Wow, that makes sense.

Of course, there are still some media and capital who are unwilling to let go of this, and they continue to clamor: This is completely an accidental coincidence and over-interpretation.As a screenwriter under the age of 20, Qin Yan never thought about such a profound theme.

At this time, there is no need for Qin Yan to make a move. Naturally, fans will help him explain.

For example, why the first scene of the movie is Mr. Storyteller, and it also appeared twice.Why is Shen Qimeng a heroine who loves to read popular stories, and why Gu Ziwei repeatedly mentions that his school is for him but never shows up.

According to the basic theory of script creation "Chekov's gun" - every element mentioned in the story should appear later, otherwise there is no need to mention [3].

As a professional director, Qin Yan would definitely not make such a stupid mistake. There is only one explanation for the existence of the storyteller and the storybook. They symbolize "social rules" that bind everyone in the world.

Of course, the most important evidence is actually the easter egg played by Qin Yanqin, that is, the scholar who wrote the Jianghu story book.

As the director and screenwriter, and the creator of "Laughing Jianghu", isn't he the God who sets everyone's life?

From this perspective, understanding the scholar's sentence "What's so difficult about it, what they like and what they lack, just give them in the story", is completely in line with social constructionism.

These details are connected together, making Qin Yan's faceless line a little deafening.

It was also this sentence that made all kinds of voices questioning and criticizing "Laughing Jianghu" disappear instantly.

At the same time, more and more ordinary people, bound and defined by society, went to the cinema to watch "Laughing Jianghu".

While laughing, he also reflected on whether he was also bound by various rules in the world.

The box office of "Laughing Jianghu", which had already started to decline gradually, rebounded again.

In the fourth week, the box office of "Laughing Jianghu" officially exceeded 1 million, and even in the fifth week it still achieved 2200 million box office!

Many years later, someone came back to comment on Qin Yan's film and said:

Since "Laughing Jianghu", director Qin Yan has embarked on a path different from other directors.

He is good at putting some profound themes expressed in literary and artistic films into commercial films, and combining the two very harmoniously.Let people reflect on the world while watching movies happily.

If you ask when did you realize that Qin Yan is different from other directors, I am afraid that most movie fans will answer "Laughing Jianghu".

The author has something to say: [1] Looking at the significance of cultural conflicts to social construction from the movie "Babel"

"Social constructionism" is really not my nonsense, many movies actually have this core.

Regarding the theme of "Laughing Jianghu", I decided on it early in the morning. Although it is a little far-fetched, this is what I want to express.

This society has given us too many labels and expectations. Girls should be gentle, boys should be sunny, and when they are old, they should get married and have children. Women don’t have to work so hard in their careers...

I just want to say that everyone should be an independent individual and they have the right to be whoever they want to be.

Me, I hope that every reader, no matter whether they read this article on jj or pirated websites in the future, can become a happy person who is not defined by the world in the future!Of course, the only premise is not to hurt others.

Alright, let's stop talking so deeply.

Love you guys ~

058 brother

"Qi Ye, long time no see, how is your health recently?"

That's right, Qin Yan has come to Hong Kong again during this time, after all, everyone knows the achievements of "Laughing Jianghu" in mainland China.Several publishing companies in Hong Kong City naturally focused on this piece of fat, especially Hua Guoxing Company, which had cooperated with Qin Yan at the beginning, had already contacted Qin Yan.

After all, Hua Guoxing Company introduced Yuan Qiye to Qin Yan at the beginning, and now Liang Yongfeng, the martial arts instructor of "Laughing Jianghu" is also a member of Huaguoxing Company, so Qin Yan directly sold the Hong Kong city screening rights of "Laughing Jianghu" to Hua Guoxing.

In fact, there are not many successful cases of film and television works in mainland China going to Hong Kong City in recent years.In the TV drama market, there are phenomenal works such as "My Fair Princess", but the film market is not so easy to talk about. The last one has to be traced back to "Farewell My Concubine" in which my brother participated, and last year's "Hero" was released in Hong Kong. City's response was similarly flat.

But "Laughing Rivers and Lakes" was surprisingly well received in Hong Kong City, and this was due to the success of "Ancient House" before.

In terms of market popularity alone, "Ancient House" is even more popular in Hong Kong than in mainland China.

After all, the economy of Hong Kong City is more developed, liberalism prevails, and young people prefer to pursue excitement.Horror movies with Chinese cultural elements like "Ancient House" can be said to directly hit the hobbies of young people in Hong Kong.

"Ancient House" made many young audiences in Hong Kong remember the names of Qin Yan, Xie Beiyang, and Xi Qianqian.

Seeing that Qin Yan and the others had a certain mass base in Hong Kong City, and worried that it would be difficult for "Laughing Jianghu" to break through, Hua Guoxing Company directly invited Qin Yan, the three of them, and other main actors to Hong Kong City to hold the film Publicity and Premiere.

These few days the movie work is over, Xie Beiyang, Xi Qianqian and the other young people have already gone shopping or checked in at the scenic spots, while Qin Yan came to visit Yuan Qiye.

It was still the small teahouse in the downtown area where they first met, but this time there were many differences.

Qin Yan's attitude has not changed because of his success.
