Head to head Hollywood 942 Author Qian Duxue Full text 2286 words
The experience of "The Departed" in the Hong Kong government has naturally spread to the mainland long ago. At the beginning, everyone may still have some scruples and it is inconvenient to talk about it. But after three glasses of wine, you can't control that much. Who doesn't complain? As the leader and leader of mainland movies, Laomouzi complains more than anyone else! "Back then, when the premiere of "Heroes" ended in the Great Hall of the People, that scene... hehe, it's not much better than the premiere of "The Departed" in the Hong Kong government. You know, when the movie was over, some reporters stood up and questioned me directly , What else is there in the movie "Heroes" besides martial arts? You say, isn't it funny?" Lao Mouzi looked like he was laughing at himself, but he didn't feel excessive grievances, he seemed to be used to it. Dunn has never drank so much alcohol in all parts of the world. He didn't want to drink it at first, but he really couldn't resist the constant persuasion of others. Baijiu is the first magic weapon for Chinese people to win foreigners! President Clinton of that year was repeatedly planted on this, and Dunn was not spared. There were seven or eight people at the dinner table, but Tang En drank a little too much, and he couldn't tell who was who. He only knew that Lao Mouzi was on the left and Miss Zhang was on the right. Laomouzi's complaints are not over yet: "Before the release of "Hero", the mainland's movie market was in a slump, and 99% of the movie theaters could not survive. If it weren't for me... If it weren't for my movie... "Hero"... ...There was a hot scene that was hard to find, which boosted the movie market, how could it be today?" Tang En really drank too much, and said a little bit openly: "Yes yes yes, "Hero" is a milestone movie in China . The next movie that will set off such a movie viewing frenzy can only be "Avatar"!" ""Avatar"? What?" "Uh... um? Did I say it?" Tang En shook his head and quickly forced Self calm. A bit of a fit. Can't talk nonsense. Fortunately, Laomouzi didn't delve into it, and seemed to have finally found an object to vent his grievances, and continued: "In the more than 20 years of reform and opening up, there has never been a movie like "Hero" that has received such a large-scale reception. Criticism, huh, there are still many media saying that this is a big bad movie! This momentum has continued to "House of Flying Daggers". It's sad! In such a hostile movie environment, how can there be good works? If a movie like "Hero" and "House of Flying Daggers" appeared in Korea or Japan, wouldn't it be held like a national treasure? Offered?" Tang En nodded in agreement. In the final analysis, the industrialization of the mainland market has just begun, and the hardware facilities in all aspects are not mature enough. In another ten years, the national conditions will change. This kind of domestic film that can represent the face of the country, even if it has some shortcomings, it is unlikely that it will be criticized on such a large scale. The dignity of a great power is rising day by day. Tang Endao: "This is the inevitable result of the invasion of foreign culture and the lack of confidence in local culture. Behind this, it may be the jealousy of a group of people in the industry, or it may be a group of media people's longing for the country's rapid development and universal values. It's too ambitious." "Yes, it's just the lack of self-confidence in the culture! That's great!" Laomouzi gave a high thumbs up, "Tang En, it's your first time in China, so maybe you don't know much about it. I said To put it bluntly, Chinese movies, I am this! However, I am also the most controversial and criticized." "Humph! Back then, when I filmed "Red Sorghum" and "Raise the Red Lantern", they were all in Europe. I won the award. After returning to China, I didn’t get the praise I deserved. The mainstream media scolded me for using the image of the country to curry favor with the Europeans, so I won the award. Later, I made "Alive" again, and the controversy became even greater! Guess what? Later, "Alive" was banned, and as a result, this banned film became my personal best work in the eyes of the media people who constantly criticized me." Tang En smiled, "The media people, you turn to the left. , they go to the right. You go to the right, they go to the left. What value judgments do they have? Zi was a little bit hated that iron was not steel, and continued to tell about the ups and downs of his movies, "I made a movie "No One Less" and went to Cannes to participate. When they found it, the TV station sent a special car to take them back to the village, and a truckload of school supplies donated by all sectors of society was also delivered to the school. I'm doing propaganda for the government." "Of course I'm very dissatisfied, it's just bullshit! What am I propagating? Do they understand China or do I understand China? If such a big thing happens, the government will definitely intervene, let alone find one. Students, even if it is a hundred or eighty, can be found! At the end of my film, I just state a fact." "I was very angry at the time, so I wrote an open letter and broke with Cannes, with "A I can’t miss it” went to Venice to participate in the exhibition. I don’t care about European claims But the domestic media exploded again, saying that I was whitewashing peace for the government, that I had given up art and joined the government. What a lot of nonsense?" "I'm just a film director, I only make the films I want to make, and no one can control me! European film critics can't do it, and domestic film bureau officials can't do it either. The result is good, I'm here. Both sides are unflattering! I..." "Director, you drink too much." Seeing that Lao Mouzi's words became more and more angry, Miss Zhang poured him a glass of juice at the right time, and interrupted him with a chuckle. I have to say that Laomouzi does have an extraordinary position in the mainland film circle. In China, "director" is not only a job title, but also a unique noun, specifically addressing Laomouzi. Other directors will be called by their surnames, such as "Director Chen", "Director Feng", "Director Jia", "Director Jiang", etc. Only Laomouzi is a special case, no one calls him "Director Zhang", but Is directly called him "director". Anyone who says "what's the matter with the director" must be referring to Laomouzi in particular. Lao Mouzi's words were interrupted, he reacted a little, and was stunned for a moment, "Have I said too much?" Miss Zhang said with a smile: "Director, what are you talking about? Brother Tang came to China for the first time, and he said again. I don't understand the environment here, he can't understand what you say." Laomouzi patted his head and laughed at himself: "Yes, yes, I drank too much, hehe. Tang En, Don't be surprised! Ziyi, after a while, take Tang Dao back to his room and let him rest." Miss Zhang pursed her lips and glanced at Tang En quickly, seeing that he really drank too much, He smiled slightly, and said very femininely: "Brother Tang, I'm all over, you don't have to worry about anyone!" Tang En disagreed and said loudly: "Go on! Go on, this topic is very interesting, I just want to talk to the mainland. I have a deep understanding of the film industry." Nine Heavens God Empero
