Chapter 825 Reopening 1 Movie
Chapter 825 Opening Another One
After staying in the circle for a few years, Shen Xudong saw a lot of things...
For example, the sixth generation.
I used to think that these people were pro-Western at heart...
In fact, they have personally experienced the major changes brought about by the transition of the economic system to China's social, interpersonal, and family relationships. In addition, they are basically academics, and they also studied Western film theory.
Their works are closer to the new wave, indulging in the pleasure of self-expression, but borrowing the framework of realism impartially.
But their movies are also problematic, the biggest problem is the morality of the bottom, and the bottom is justice...
In fact, these people are also very pitiful!
Future movies, no matter in terms of presentation methods or technical platforms, cannot be operated and understood by the sixth generation.
What's more, they put on airs and put on the score, treating directing as a personal art.
To put it bluntly, the sixth generation is a believer in art films. They play art when they are not qualified to play art, and play themselves useless; at the same time, they are also believers in certain capitals. Participating in politics, playing yourself disabled...
The sixth generation is a group of self-centered people who were in the best position, but because of their ego, refuse to learn new knowledge, refuse to integrate into the market...
I have the opportunity to see the world, but I have not developed the world view that filmmakers should have.
Knowledge, insight, cultural literacy, and narrow vision are unexpected.
General narcissism, feeling like an artist…
In fact, I don’t understand anything, the most typical one is Zhang Yuan, who took drugs and ruined his brain. He fiddled with a "Lobster Detective" and directly turned a big meal with top configuration into shit!
However, Lou Ye is not bad.
At first, I thought he was pretending, but he has been able to maintain his energy since his debut...
Moreover, Qin Hao, Zhang Songwen, Zhou Xun, Hao Lei, Tan Zhuo, Qi Xi, the most popular acting stars at the moment, all worked with Lou Ye when they were not very famous, and some of them have been working with Lou Ye for a long time!
His technique is very powerful. "Massage": using audiovisual to show the blind is really unprecedented.
Comparing the two films "Sound of Metal" and Taiwan's "Silence" shows that Lou Ye is a director of another level...
However, appreciation is appreciation, Shen Xudong will never cooperate with him in this life.
"I'm making popular movies, and the movies I make must satisfy the public's aesthetics. It may be a little higher, but it's unlikely to be too much higher..."
"What is a popular movie?"
"For ordinary viewers, what they want to get from movies is a "spectacular" experience, such as the beautiful alien world in "Avatar", the epic narrative of "Lord of the Rings", etc.
The impact experience that the audience feels intuitively through the movie: visual effects, auditory effects, plot level, lens language level, etc., will move or shock their senses and thoughts.
From this perspective, if a movie can achieve this level, it is already a good movie in the eyes of movie fans: even if what shocks them is only "a certain partial link" or "good sentence" in the movie.
If there is still some thoughtfulness, it is a classic movie!That's the kind of movie I'm going to do! "
Speaking of this, Shen Xudong gave an example: ""Tang Detective" is a film that meets the public's aesthetics, but it is a level higher than the public, because I played a little trick at the end..."
Zhang Songwen: "What little flower job? Isn't Sinuo the murderer?"
"I'll end up putting Dan on..."
"Dan... Sompa's son?"
"Yes..." Shen Xudong simply helped sort out the whole movie: "Actually, Sinuo and Dan exchanged killings, Sinuo killed Songpa, and Dan was responsible for solving Li, but the arrival of Tang Ren and Qin Feng made Sinuo change his mind. I made up my mind and didn't ask Dan to come forward..."
Shen Teng interjected: "Why... for the sequel?"
"Correct!"
"Is there a sequel to this?"
"Of course, the next one is still in Bangkok, and I'm going to New York after that. I've planned seven or eight..."
……
Night in Bangkok is especially suitable for eating barbecue and chatting...
Shen Xudong was particularly interested in chatting tonight, and a few of them chatted about the recent Hollywood movies dominating the mainland market.
Zhang Songwen mentioned that the Hong Kong film market was broken by Hollywood...
Shen Xudong chuckled: "Hollywood blockbusters have been conquering the whole world since the 90s. Hong Kong movies' big box office disappeared in Southeast Asia and Taiwan. South Korea started to develop its own movies in the 90s and restricted foreign films. This box box is also slowly disappearing. Without the market, there will be no investment, and without investment, the film will of course shrink slowly..."
"The movie industry relies heavily on offline movie theaters. The main income of the entire industry is movie box office, but since 95, the box office revenue of Hong Kong movies has been shrinking rapidly..."
"Because of the system of selling clips?"
"It's just one of them. The most important thing is that it really can't do Hollywood!"
Selling film clips is more about selling casts, so as to recover the cost in advance and ensure stable profits without losing money, but when the quality of the movie declines and the star's cards are not good, no one will be fooled a second time!
If it's just the quality of the finished film, it's fine. The key is that many people didn't shoot the film at all after they sold it.
Pure money!
In addition to the disastrous box office failure of "Ji Gong", the main reason why Taiwan's eight major filmmakers forced the palace is that they bought a large number of film contracts, but they couldn't get any films—a large number, probably hundreds of films!
Then Hong Kong filmmakers collectively acted aggressively—they felt that the Taiwanese film companies could not handle it, but they did not expect the Taiwanese film companies to directly open up Hollywood films.
Screening Hollywood movies makes more money, and they don’t sell movies. Taiwanese filmmakers are not stupid, so they naturally choose to open up western movies!
"So the current trend is the same as before?"
"...It's different, our audience actually prefers to watch their own stories!"
Speaking of this, Shen Xudong suddenly realized that Baoqiang hadn't spoken until now, so he changed the topic: "Baoqiang, why didn't you speak?"
"I don't understand what you're saying... I won't say it..."
"The filming of "Tang Detective" is over, do you have any scenes?"
Bao Qiang said: "There is a TV series looking for me, "The Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", I will play Li Yuanba!"
"How did you take this role?"
"It was invited by Teacher Shan Tianfang. I have liked Teacher Shan Tianfang since I was a child..."
Well, then understandable...
Shen Xudong looked at Shen Teng: "...What about you? After you go back, you can continue to record "Running Man"?"
Shen Teng nodded, and explained by the way: "Actually, there are quite a few dramas looking for me, but the scripts are so bad..."
"Then... what about Songwen?"
Zhang Songwen shrugged: "Continue to be a teacher, and run around by the way..."
"Running?"
Shen Xudong explained: "Running the production crew and giving performance guidance to the actors... That's how I know him."
Speaking of this, he looked at Shen Teng and Zhang Songwen: "I feel that the filming of "Tang Detective" is not satisfying, how about you?"
Shen Teng was puzzled: "Not fun?"
"If you don't feel satisfied, let's make another movie!"
