Many people have read "The Story" and there are definitely a few so-called youth representatives who are not good at speaking...

This is normal. Variety shows must have a villain!

Creating conflicts and re-creating solutions has caused heated discussions among netizens and is not uncommon.

However, Chen Mengxi thinks harmony is quite good...

Moreover, the conversation just now was popular enough on the Internet.

Most importantly, he doesn't think he has a problem.

I read the answer in advance - everything he said is verified in the future!

So, he stood calmly waiting to ask questions...

...

"Teacher Shen, many people praise you as a genius, do you know?"

“(?_??)”

Chen Mengxi looked puzzled...

"Even if you write a book, you can sell the best in the country, and you can win an Oscar if you make a movie... Why are you so awesome?"

"The Ghost Blows Out the Light" is not something I wrote casually. I refer to the legendary novels of the Tang Dynasty, "Youyang Zazu" and "Han Shu·Biography of the Western Regions". The origin of the whole story is "The Raiders of the Treasure Ark". I just wondered why we didn't have such adventures, treasure hunting novels, and then wrote them... As for what you said casually, it involves a lot of things. First of all, it was Little New Year, and there were no particularly outstanding movies. "Hunting" is one of the best-known audience among the nominations. Secondly, our public relations route is very correct, and there are public opinion, and it is not as simple as you see..."

"Tell me this way, if you want me to win an Oscar, unless I can make a movie that transcends the times, it will be impossible!"

"Also, I'm not a genius... I only scored more than 400 points in the college entrance examination!"

this…

In fact, the questions asked by these young representatives were basically adopted online.

Many netizens think that Chen Mengxi is awesome. She became a monk halfway through and did one thing to the top. Many people compare him with Quentin...

Then there is a second question: "Why did you make two movies in foreign languages?"

“…It’s a coincidence.”

"Well, let me be honest, the reason I made a movie is very simple, just to prove that 'I understand movies!'"

"At that time, everyone thought it was great to be able to make movies in the United States. The goal of many Hong Kong directors was to enter Hollywood. Then my starting point was their end point... The first movie, "Manchester by the Sea", was originally planned to publish novels, because this theme was rather depressing and not suitable for adapting movies? If an actor starred in it, I'm afraid it would be a huge loss!"

"It just so happened that Leonardo wanted to challenge, so I took a photo!"

"I didn't expect it to sell well? It has a good reputation? Then I continued to work with Leonardo on "Hunting"..."

"Then what do you think is the biggest gap between Chinese and American movies?"

Chen Mengxi thought for a while and replied: "Technology and something? I won't say much. I think the biggest difference is the professional quality of the staff behind the scenes? The most powerful thing in Hollywood is that it can gather the world's top talents!"

"I'm shooting Manchester by the Sea and Hunting? In addition to waiting for Leonardo's schedule, the most important thing is that I have to wait for the preparations for Emmanuel Lubezki... He is the most powerful photographer I have ever met. Have you ever seen "Son of Humanity"? The first time I watched it? I was shocked directly? I couldn't imagine that anyone could shoot a long shot like this. On the other hand, the long shots of many of our movies are just long!"

"I am very sensitive to the picture, so, as long as it is the movie I participated in? The color adjustment of the picture must be the color that the audience is particularly comfortable, the soft white light of "Introduction to Architecture", and the slightly yellow memory color of "33 Days of Love Break"... But when I proposed these things at that time? Many people, including my team, felt that it was unnecessary because the audience couldn't understand it!"

"Audiences don't understand colors? But what colors should they understand look so comfortable... If I work with Emmanuel Lubezki, I don't need to mention these things at all? He is far more sensitive to the picture than me? What I often think of? He has done it in advance!"

"My team is basically the top group in China, but many times, they really can't keep up with my thinking!"

"You don't think you're reviewing..."

"Censorship is just an external factor. Do you think Hollywood has no censorship? Why are Hollywood's big productions all popcorn flavors? Because there are too many things to worry about, and it needs a global market, so it cannot be affected by any political or religious flavors... If you want to watch something in depth, it is recommended that you go to watch American TV series, and Potato Video has an American TV channel!"

"To say more, every country has its own standards for censorship. The United States has an MPAA. He will decide whether the movie is R-level or other level, and will ask studios to make changes in one way or another. The same is true for China's censorship system... You can't just ask for your own freedom. In fact, we are really good at making words. Look at the two words freedom, they look like rules and regulations!"

At this point, it's quite mild...

...

"You have been co-starring between China and the United States, and then Wanda suddenly acquired AMC? Will you feel pressure?"

"What pressure do I have?"

"As we all know, movies are all capital-intensive enterprises..."

"You don't know how to make movies. Wanda wants to transform into a light asset. Why acquire AMC? Expand overseas markets, go public through backdoor listing, expand its influence and advertising effect... I don't need to do these things. The "Hunger Games" series and the "Fifty Degrees" series can at least bring billions of dollars in profits... Why should I acquire theaters? Making US dollars and investing overseas, I think the former is more exciting, right?"

"No need to over-interpret it, it is actually the same as Sony's acquisition of MGM Columbia Pictures..."

"You don't think about Wanda?"

"It's useless if I don't think so, and I don't know Wang Jianlin either... But I'm really shocked. I'm still very brave in real estate. I have a debt of 100 billion and dare to spend 20 billion to acquire an American theater chain... Our profit last year was only more than 5 billion, and at most it was just a few studios in China..."

After a pause, Shen Mengxi asked: "Who have you been in the United States?"

Several people raised their hands, and Shen Mengxi asked again: "Do you go abroad to study or do business?"

"Studying abroad... It's good to study abroad. The campus is probably the closest place to utopia in the world... In fact, the United States is not as free as everyone imagines... It's difficult to do business in the United States, and it's the same for making movies. Bren House was created by me, and S Studio is the same, but I have very little say in these two companies... They look down on me a little..."

"Hostile to Chinese... Especially in recent years, conservative forces in the United States have risen, and many Americans have scolded Chinese imperialism..."

"We must rely on China and have our own motherland as our backer so that we can go more steadily and further in the future. Don't blindly develop globally, it's meaningless..."
