"I'm not sleepy. It's only around eight o'clock. Let me ask you a question. How do you watch some restricted movies, such as the one made by Sister Tang and Wei Zai, and the one made by Sister Fan and Brother Dawei? How do you watch it?
You know, it’s this kind of video.”
Zhao Mingyang knew that Liu Bingbing was asking this question seriously.
"This kind of film, Fat Mantis makes is vulgar and bad taste, because he is a commercial director, for the box office. Of course, Fat Mantis has made too many bad films, because he shoots a lot of movies, and at his peak he shot one film a week.
There are three or four movies released in January, and he is the only one who can do this globally.
It has to be said that during the trough period of Hong Kong films, he did help the Hong Kong film market to survive. However, because he filmed too many films in all genres, he was defined as a commercial director, similar to an Internet singer. You ask an Internet singer to take over
Awards like Les Mills are extremely difficult to achieve because they are not recognized by the judges.
There are many, many good movies made by Fat Mantis. If he makes two or three movies a year, or even one movie every two or three years, and takes the route of high-quality movies and art films, then some of the large-scale films he makes are art films.
It's easy to win a prize.
Why? Because people judge something based on the public and market perception. How high are the artistic attainments of those judges? What is artistic attainment? How much knowledge do they have? How much awareness, how noble and selfless are they? Not necessarily.
It's nothing more than some big directors, some directors who have been making art-related movies. If you look at and evaluate the movies with a vulgar perspective, you will be criticized for being unprofessional, so just give awards and praise. In fact,
It's not difficult to make people cry and think deeply.
It's really not difficult, especially for a great director.
Generally, big directors will film it, but why not Fat Mantis? Because it doesn’t make money, and the audience will understand some things. For example, if you film ethics, if you film the dark side of human nature, everyone will understand it, but they just don’t want to face it and admit it.
Like many boys, they do it when they are alone. Do you think they will admit it?
No, you go and film a boy's process and tell the boys, come and see, some boys actually do this kind of thing, which is taking off their pants and farting.
Therefore, this type of film has never had much box office. It only has some topical issues, such as whether boys should be fattened and how harmful it is to boys.
Just like the two movies you mentioned, how many people watched them carefully and didn't get distracted in some specific scenes? Those so-called judges didn't think randomly and didn't have physiological reactions? They had more fun than the general public.
They have a lot of knowledge and even have more dirty ideas than the general public, but why are there directors and actors who know this and still film it?
It’s just for two words, breakthrough! As long as there is a breakthrough, you can basically win awards, and the current movies are all defined by the Western people as to what can win awards and what cannot win awards, and how civilized are they? You
If you shoot something with depth, can they understand it? Can’t they?
So what are you going to shoot? Shoot social chaos, shoot some large-scale ethics, then they can understand it, and give them a straightforward answer. If you want to shoot deeper knowledge, they really can’t understand it, so you can read some
Why is it so difficult for documentaries about great scientists to win awards? These judges may not even know what trigonometric functions are.
Soon our country will become the largest box office country for movies. By then, movies from all over the world will be catered to our appetites. For example, there will be more and more movies like Kung Fu Panda, praising us and praising us. Foreign movies shot in our country will also
More and more.
Without money, what do you want those who make art films to eat and drink? The best actors and directors must be able to make the film and television drama industry continue to make profits. Only by continuing to make profits can more people be given opportunities to create and perform.
This is called vigorous development.
You see, the film and television industry in Hong Kong is in decline now. Directors and actors are all moving north to develop their careers. Why? Because there is no money. Have you seen any good films produced in Hong Kong over the years? How many art films are there? There are still idol dramas in Baodao.
How many are there? Is it still that influential?
No more, why, there is no market, no money, we don’t buy it anymore, if you want to make money, follow our taste, the directors and actors from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places all follow our taste, so now Chinese stars
The younger generation is only from our country, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan basically can’t come out, because the market is defined by us, it’s that simple.
If you want to get out of the industry like that, it is outdated. In the future, your acting career must revolve around the relationships and preferences of our domestic characters to get out of the industry, so let you experience life."
If Zhao Mingyang told Liu Bingbing that within a few years, domestic movies would exceed one billion, three billion, or five billion, it would not be a fantasy but commonplace. Hollywood movies are basically based on our tastes. I guess Liu Bingbing would also be very satisfied.
It is hard to believe that in the near future, our domestic film market will be the second largest market in the world. The first place is not one country, but the total of other countries besides ours.
"I'm going to sleep for a while. Call me when you get there." Liu Bingbing suddenly felt sleepy. Sitting in a car for a while is the easiest way to get sleepy, and the biggest taboo for co-pilots is to get sleepy. Once the co-pilot gets sleepy, the driver will easily get sleepy, but if
The co-pilot was a beautiful woman, and it was summer, so she was wearing thin clothes, and the driver was an old pervert, so it was really not easy to get sleepy and easily distracted.
Zhao Mingyang drove the car and took the expressway. It was late at night and if he encountered someone who was driving on the national highway, he would lose more than he gained. The profession of the party is really hateful. They don’t deal with luxury cars, but only ordinary family cars.
, this group of people knew about Pengci's luxury car. Maybe the brakes of the luxury car failed and sent him home. He was rich, powerful and had a lawyer. At most, the insurance company would pay some money.
Any low-level industry is aimed at ordinary people. This is what is hateful about this group of people.
At 12:45 in the morning, Zhao Mingyang parked his car in front of a hotel. This hotel was a movie-style hotel. The entire hotel was similar to the Shanghai residence in the movie. The decoration style was in the Republic of China style, with spiral staircases.
There are record players and cheongsam covers, and stills of all the actors in the Shanghai Beach series are hung on the wall, as well as photos of celebrities taken here.
"We're here." Zhao Mingyang shouted, but there was no response.
Liu Bingbing seemed to be sleeping soundly. Zhao Mingyang got off the car and walked into the hotel to ask if there was any room left?
When he got the answer that there were still two rooms left, Zhao Mingyang sighed, with an expression that read: Boss, you really don’t deserve this money.
"Hello, sir, there is only one room available at the moment, and one room has just been booked." The boss stood at the front desk and looked at Zhao Mingyang and said. This type of hotel is a B&B hotel. Basically, it is rented out and renovated by oneself. There are not many rooms.
, there are twenty rooms in ten miles.
The boss has been here for four or five years, and he seems to understand Zhao Mingyang's mind.
"Hey? There's only one room left? Then I'll ask my friend if she can't live in a room. After all, I'm a man and a woman alone. I came here all night long. I don't know if there are any vacancies in other hotels nearby.
?Is there any? Boss." Zhao Mingyang looked at the boss and asked.
The boss looked at Zhao Mingyang with horror, this guy~this guy~
"No! It's so late and it's the peak season. All the hotels nearby are full. I only have one room left here. If you don't stay, you'll be booked soon. After all, it's the peak season."
"Boss, let me go and ask. I brought my friend here to ask how much it costs per night."
"Eight hundred!" said the boss.
Zhao Mingyang pointed with his eyes widened and said: 'Eight hundred here? Five-star hotels only have one thousand at this time, what about you?'
"There should be a lot of rooms left in the five-star hotel. Two rooms are worth two thousand, what do you think?"
"Ahem~ You seem to be right in your calculations. You won't have any spare rooms here these days, right?"
"It won't be available anymore. It's full and there won't be any more. Breakfast is provided for three days, and it's a good deal."
"Then open for three days?" Zhao Mingyang said.
"Yes, three days is very cost-effective. Mainly because I am connected in all directions, it is convenient to go everywhere, and it is stylish. Celebrities love to live there. If your friend likes to chase stars, I can also give her some signed photos of celebrities. As long as you stay with me
It will be delivered here.”
Zhao Mingyang and the boss made eye contact again, and went to the car to wake up Liu Bingbing to check in.
