Chapter 263 I Still Have Confidence in Movies (4/6)

“This is something we made specifically for Gravity to simulate the space environment,”

"Because most of the plot takes place in space, the actor's performance is a difficult problem..."

"How much did it cost... I won't tell you this anymore. I can tell you that 80% of the production cost of Gravity is spent on production and special effects!"

After a brief chat, Lu Xiaoran brought the wheat with him, and then the makeup artist came over to help him organize it briefly.

...

"The origin of "Embroidered Chun Dao" is that I want to do a martial arts drama. Lu Yang just happened to have a suitable script, and then we filmed it!"

"We don't really want to do ordinary martial arts. Strictly speaking, "The Embroidered Sword" films "the story of the court's eagle claws". The Jinyiwei was involved in the battle between the temple and became a political chess piece."

"So, this movie cannot be like the heroes in martial arts who are happy and roaming the world. They are more of a sense of helplessness and burdensomeness about politics... Many people feel uncomfortable when watching "The Embroidered Spring Sword". It is understandable that the Ming Dynasty Jianghu we built also has that kind of refreshing story."

"The Emoticon of the Spring Sword plus six movies "The Factory", "Dragon Gate", "Bandits", "The Biography of Ding Xiu", "The Chivalrous Girl", "Miaojiang" publicly constitutes the prequel series of Ming Dynasty..."

"After "What Things in the Ming Dynasty", many people were interested in the stories of the Ming Dynasty. We will make the Ming Dynasty world and restore the story from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties as much as possible..."

“Many people criticize the love line?”

"This is really not well discussed. This is a necessary routine for martial arts movies - saving the world. It is traditional heroes, either talented men or knights. When walking in the world, you can always meet a woman with a giant eye to recognize the hero. Instead, the two of them are in love and make a decision for life. They are angry and resist feudal ethics. When the man becomes successful, they will attract women to become good. Then they will go out to join the generals and go to the phoenixes to be harmonious."

"In a sense, this kind of redemption is more about the content of self-realization of male characters. In order to protect this feeling of self-realization, we have to sacrifice the ability or initiative of female characters."

"Ding Xiu's moves... If you have read the Juhe Technique in "Langke Jianxin", you will understand."

"Lu Yang likes "Jojo Adventure" and "Ronin Swordsman", so thieves like Ding Xiu also appeared!"

This is all about "The Embroidered Spring Sword", which can be called the guests and hosts' delights, and Lu Xiaoran cooperates very well...

Then the host asked again: "How do you think of what director Gao Qunshu said recently, 'Movies cannot be just fan movies, but they still have to pursue something'?"

Well, yesterday, Gao Qunshu posted "Tiny Times" on Weibo and said: I don't object to making fan movies, but I don't want to make movies just to please fans and let young fans pay for it. The movie should have higher requirements.

"Of course there is no problem with this sentence. In addition to meeting the needs of the audience, we often have to challenge ourselves. People live not only to make money and enjoy it, but they have to pursue it. They can have low-level fun, but they cannot be all low-level fun!"

Of course, Director Lu doesn’t like Gao Qunshu, but his words are completely fine...

It seems that Director Lu doesn’t like Feng Xiaogang, but he still thinks he is a good director.

"Then what do you think of "Tiny Times"?"

"…I have said a long time ago that it is just a fan movie, both narrative and composition, and directorial skills are not mature. Mayday has also made many movies that specialize in making fans' money, "Noah's Ark", "Dream Chasing 3dna"..."

At the end, Lu Xiaoran couldn't help but: "I just hope that the Chinese film market will not become a money-making treasure land that "silly people come quickly when they are profit-oriented" in the minds of countless profit-oriented people!"

"I also hope that the audience will not be disappointed with Chinese movies. We still have a group of filmmakers who work hard on film!"

...

The biggest harm to the Tiny Times series is that it kicks off the fan movie!

The success of this movie has conveyed a message to many producers, that is, the traffic young actors and excellent promotion can make money.

Movies are not RMB, and it is impossible for everyone to like them, but RMB is really everyone to like them, so why not make money?

Moreover, it is very labor-saving to do this, and you no longer have to work hard to polish the script.

Think about it, "Embroidered Spring Knife" invited Lu Xiaoran + Deng Chao, with a Douban score of 7.6 points, and the production cost was 35 million yuan. As a result, it was not sold in "Tiny Times 2"...

What's the matter with "Tiny Times"?

Guo Jingming!

What is the secret to success?

fan!

As a result, more actors, hosts, crosstalk actors, writers, and Internet celebrities have transformed into producers and directors, and flocked into the film industry.

Of course, the most serious impact on the film market is the numerous idols, comedians, and Internet celebrities. They jointly created one so-called "variety show movie" and "crossing talk variety show", which read from beginning to end, "I want, circle, money", and the audience really bought it!

The ugly appearance of eating, the insult to the audience's IQ, and the contempt for the film industry are all shocking!

The movie...it should have a little artistic quality, right?

In fact, we don’t like fan movies, not because we hate someone, but because this pattern is actually deformed!

The deformity is that it is not beneficial to the future development of the film market. No one invests in movies that require time and a lot of labor. This is not a nurturing the market, nor even a nurturing audience.

This is called bad money driving out good money!

If this continues, are there any investors willing to spend money on serious movies?

...

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Lu Xiaoran was on the phone with Zhang Jin...

"Hunting" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival. After watching the movie on mk2, I thought it was the best work Zhang Yimou had made in recent years, so I promised to help with public relations with all my strength.

"Of course it's better to be able to get the Golden Lion. If it really doesn't work, at least you can play the movie champion!"

Boss Lu hung up his phone, looked at him and lay on the sofa, brushing Tangtang in a very indecent posture...

“… “Embroidered Spring Sword” has surpassed “Tiny Times”…”

“…single-day box office?”

"Um."

“…Did Gao Qunshu say anything?”

"I didn't say anything, his movie was scolded...Is it the one you were looking for?"

"…I have a problem. He didn't make the movie for normal people, and he still needs to find someone to slander?"

"I'll tell you something!" Tangtang got up from the sofa: "Someone invested me 80 million and asked me to make a movie!"

"Ahem..." Director Lu was shocked: "You... make a movie? What movie?"

“…No request, I just said the box office exceeded 200 million…”
