103. Invitation by the President

In addition to the Tang Shu crew coming to this town, there are many customers who arrive at the same time. These guests are naturally journalists with keen sense of smell. From the Oscars ceremony, many reporters have made the film Tang Shu want to shoot.

I have heard of it, but Tang Shu has not released any more news, which undoubtedly made the reporters feel extremely itchy. When they learned that Tang Shu was about to start filming, these reporters were coming in crazily.

For Tang Shu, many reporters are intertwined with love and hate. They love that there is always so much news created by Tang Shu. Even a casual sentence from Tang Shu is a piece of news. Being able to interview Tang Shu can almost mean that it means

I was promoted with a salary increase because there seemed to be too many people who like Tang Shu. To put it more exaggeratedly, even if Tang Shu sneezes, it can be published as news.

For any news, as long as the word "Tang Shu" is added, you don't have to worry about sales.

But I hate it, Tang Shu really can't say good about these uncrowned kings. If you say you refuse to interview, you will not have any way to do it.

To be honest, these reporters should be glad that at least Tang Shu did not "welcome" reporters with guns and sticks like some tough stars...

In short, Tang Shu's actions always attract a lot of attention from reporters.

Looking at the numerous reporters, without George's reminder, Tang Shu was preparing to hold a simple press conference to officially promote the movie.

At the press conference, Tang Shu did not disappoint the reporters. Although he didn't say much, he just repeated the sentence "Authoritative American movies!" and "Ten Must-Watch Movies for Men" to make these reporters

They were very excited.

However, the greed of reporters can never be satisfied. Many reporters want to find some gossip news, such as Tang Shu invited Meg to be the heroine of this film. Is it because of her intimacy with Tang Shu at the Oscars ceremony?

Contact or something.

The extension means as if Tang Shu is a pervert. As long as you are willing to sacrifice yourself, Tang Shu can make the other party "up"? Well, the facts seem to be true. It seems that Tang Shu is also working in that direction, but it is also

We must cover it with a layer of justice!

For such questions, Tang Shu will naturally use Tai Chi to turn aside, or use the official answers of medium and medium distances, such as inviting Meg Ryan because her acting skills meet the requirements and her character is worthy of invitation.

Classic...

Tang Shu’s actions are naturally not about worrying about scandals, but about worrying that Meg is worried and uncomfortable because of such problems and remarks. Perhaps Meg is afraid of suspicion, and may be embarrassed to be too close to Tang Shu. For Tang Shu,

But it was just a tragedy, so he naturally couldn't watch such a situation happen.

After the press conference, amid the wailings in the hearts of reporters, Tang Shu once again announced that he would refuse all interviews and was preparing to calm down and shoot the movie with all his might. Tang Shu was very busy, so he naturally had to hurry up.

……………………

In the 1990s, anti-intellectual sentiment in American society was rising. Hollywood launched a number of films that devalued modern civilization, advocated low IQ and returned to the original, which was called "anti-intellectual film" by the media, and now the filming of Tang Shu is now

This 'Forrest Gump' is its representative work.

The description of the extraordinary life experience of a mentally retarded person with an IQ of 75 reflects all aspects of American life, and shows important events in the socio-political life of the United States at that time from a unique perspective.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the United States experienced a situation of ideological chaos and social chaos, racial discrimination, sexual liberation, drug proliferation, various contradictions caused by the Vietnam War, as well as the famous hippie culture, the generation of American young people were called Cross-Span

The lost generation is labeled as "corruption and degeneration".

In comparison, the so-called fallen generation in China is too far from that in the United States! When I watched this movie in my previous life, Tang Shu, who was fortunate to be a member of the "fallen generation in China", was

I am deeply ashamed that in comparison, the "beat generation" of China is really too sensible and pure!

This film is adapted from Winston Glum's political satirical novel "Forrest Gump", but movies are naturally different from novels. Movies are generally filled with the director's thoughts, not the author's thoughts.

In the novel "Forrest Gump", Forrest Gump is not that perfect.

He was tempted by a female tenant when he was very young and had a relationship with him. He smoked marijuana, fought against counterfeiting games, and even cheated money...

This Forrest Gump is neither pure nor perfect, a little weak, indecisive and easily tempted, but he can always change his past. He is still kind and helpful. But he cannot serve as a public instructor, nor can he satisfy the audience.

Require.

As a tool to reflect the mainstream ideology of society, films should be used to meet and satisfy the audience's moral vanity, which is a very important condition for the success of the film.

Therefore, in order to respond more to the audience, Forrest Gump in the movie was portrayed as the spokesperson of virtue. He is kind, loyal, diligent, honest, trustworthy, serious, brave and valued feelings. He only knows how to give without asking for rewards to others.

He doesn't mind others' rejection, he just faces life open-mindedly and openly.

Such virtues are the values ​​and character qualities recognized by mainstream American society for hundreds of years. This is also the character that most Americans think they have and are willing to advertise.

Deep social and humanistic thoughts and moral norms that meet the audience's psychological requirements are important reasons why this movie has become an immortal classic.

Regarding the revision of the script, Tang Shu specially communicated with the novel author Gloom. In his past life memory, Tang Shu learned that Gloom was not satisfied with the change of the script to the novel, which caused trouble between the film company and the novel author.

It was very stiff, so Tang Shu naturally didn't want to do that, so he discussed it with Glum, and was respected and valued by Tang Shu. In addition, Tang Shu did make sense, so Glum accepted it happily.

In the film, the mentally retarded protagonist Forrest Gump concentrates his only wisdom, belief and courage on one point. He ignores nothing and only knows that he keeps running on the road based on his intuition. He runs past the discrimination of his childhood classmates.

After passing the college football field, he ran through the quagmire of Vietnam War with fire, passed the palace of table tennis diplomacy, ran all over the United States, and finally reached his finish line.

It is worth mentioning that Tang Shu also has certain changes to the script, that is, the increase in the role of the heroine. Tang Shu's reason is to show the turbulent era more deeply and reveal the "beat"

A generation's manic and rebellious years. Such a righteous and open reason is obviously impossible to be the true thought of Tang Shu.

What is his real thought? It can be guessed from Meg's grateful gaze, who learned that the scenes have increased...
