Chapter 275 You don't want to offend that director
The conversation that day seemed to be in line with Master San's wishes. Not long after, he mentioned Fang Yi's original words at an internal meeting of the Directors Association.
He said, "Everyone can be a director for three minutes - a child said this. I think this is very interesting. Chinese movies should not become something for old people to play around with. There must be living water coming in. History has proved that every time
When we face change, we always need to inject new blood first."
"Moreover," he paused, trying to emphasize his tone, "we ourselves must also treat this force correctly internally, and comrades must correct their thinking."
After that, I don't know whether he had something urgent or was using the topic to express his dissatisfaction, so he left directly.
This left a lot of directors looking at each other in disbelief.
These people talked among themselves, and some asked: "The new official has three things to do when he takes office. This is the third year that the third master has been established in the organization. He is an old official. Is he finally going to take drastic measures?"
Others explained: "Last year, the box office of domestic films was too bad, which made Mr. San lose his face. It is said that a leader attached great importance to the achievements in this area and was mainly responsible for the work of the cultural front... so he stayed alone in Han Sanping for a meeting and asked him to become a long-term director.
report."
"He must be under great pressure. He cannot see no hope for two consecutive years. Otherwise, the third master may have to resign and replace him with a new capable person."
Everyone spoke to each other and gradually pieced together a truth that everyone relatively recognized.
The conclusion is that it is impossible to make domestic movies explode at the box office.
However, it is possible for a certain film to win the box office championship, or to have generally good results in other places abroad.
When China Film makes its report at the end of this year, it will also have a facade, creating a picture of a situation that is going well but is about to get better.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, even as far back as the cave dwellings, we have attached great importance to movies as a public opinion tool. Of course, we did not have the conditions to do so at that time, so we used drama to simulate it, and we compiled new and critical commentary based on current events every day.
Disadvantages of the times.
Snow's Ramblings of Journey West recorded:
"There is no more powerful propaganda weapon than the drama club, and there is no more clever weapon."
"It is often the drama club that eliminates farmers' doubts and wins their trust."
"They come to the show in droves and accept the publicity voluntarily."
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that movies are the front line of the cultural front.
The reason why Fang Yi is rooted in Miaohong is that the first principal of Yangzhou Opera was a veteran who was engaged in culture in the red zone. He was the person who ran the drama club as Snow said. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Yangzhou Opera was also the only
Affiliated colleges and universities are administratively higher than other schools.
Later, something happened, which made everyone trust Yangxi and its people even more.
In these long years, there are countless people who have contributed to domestic films. It may not be his turn to be called "Master" by Han Sanping. Director Xie Jin is so awesome that he is not called "Master Jin" or "Master Xie".
.
Why call him "Third Master"?
Because Han Sanping, within the scope of his personal capabilities, has brought back the development direction of domestic films.
Han Sanping was transferred to Beijing Studio in 1994. In the year before this, the country introduced the first mature Hollywood blockbuster "The Fugitive". Maybe the plot in the film is very cliché now, but back then, when the audience
I saw the protagonist Jin Bo fighting against the police force for his wife, launching a fast-paced counter-hunt and pursuit plot, and then the two parties worked together to expose the pharmaceutical company behind the scenes, shootouts, chases, explosions, air battles...
Compared to the Chinese people at that time, the plot was really shocking. It was like a person who was still playing Tetris and came into contact with a 3A masterpiece for the first time.
Then the Hollywood movie "True Lies" was introduced. The governor flexed his muscles, single-handedly killed the criminal group, flew a Harrier fighter jet to take off and land vertically, hovered over the skyscrapers in the business district, and used machine guns to sweep the enemy...
The newspaper said pessimistically: "For the first time we know what a blockbuster movie looks like."
It was under this situation that Han Sanping, from the sitcom,
Starting with biopics, a large number of feature films reflecting social trends have been promoted and launched.
It allowed domestic films to survive the 90-year golden decade of Hollywood and cultivated a group of intermediate forces.
He simply left like this, and someone finally remembered and asked, "Who is that kid?"
"Fang Yi."
"I haven't heard of it. Who do you study under?"
"Still in school."
The speaker instinctively raised his alarm: "Too young... The fresh blood in our industry must be at least thirty or forty years old. At his age, doesn't he have to be an emperor and dominate in the future?"
"But... the third master seems to appreciate him."
"Damn, what kind of school is this?"
"Yangxi."
"Oh, my junior brother, it's nothing." The voice suddenly became gentle, "We should have this kind of fresh blood coming in. Seniors must be tolerant and not attack others... Next time at the alumni gathering,
I want to get to know my descendants, and I hope this circle will be more tolerant."
――“Everyone can be a three-minute director?”
"What nonsense is this!"
In Jin Province, Chen Kaige saw this sentence when he woke up in the morning. The magazine he was looking at was an internal brochure of the Directors Guild. It had a very small circulation and was filled with technical posts written by a group of old guys.
The Directors Guild is not a pheasant organization. In the early 1990s, in order to communicate with Hong Kong and Hong Kong film directors, mainland filmmakers petitioned the summit and got approval, and then a semi-official organization, the Directors Guild, was established.
The president and vice-president are appointed in a rotating system. Chen Kaige has served as vice president twice and is a big figure among them. After more than ten years of development, the Directors Association has also become a deep force in the small circle of directors.
Now, under his nose, Fang Yi's face appeared, and one could easily imagine how he was scolding Fang Qiu.
Chen Kaige shook his head rather unhappily and said to himself, "At this age, in order to study film, my hands were red from the cold. I eagerly learned the advanced experience at home and abroad. I was respectful and did not dare to go beyond the limit..."
"Movies are so sacred to me.uu看书 www.uukanshu.com "
His eyes continued to focus on Fang Yi's face.
He felt a little jealous, but didn't want to admit it.
It was around the 1980s when 26-year-old Director Chen was finally admitted to Beijing Film Academy's directing department. His performance and body were laughed at by his classmates long after he entered school.
The only thing that could make him stand out was Chen Kaige's writing skills and critical thinking ability. The first time he proved himself in front of the whole class, he stuttered but told a good story.
The classmates said, "Chen Kaige, it turns out you still have this ability."
Yes, except for making movies, I know nothing else, so movies are all my value and must not become mass merchandise.
Chen Kaige took the initiative to contact the reporter and planned to discuss his opinions that evening.
However, the sun fell heavily and was replaced by moonlight shining on the eaves of the replica Warring States palace. After a while, even the moonlight gradually disappeared in the clouds. It was dark and the crew was still working in full swing. The stern Director Chen looked confused.
Where are the reporters?
Who dares to let go of my pigeons?
Director Chen's eyes circulated harshly among the crowd, and finally stopped at his wife.
He got up and went straight over. Before asking, his wife said, "I'll help you with it."
Chen Kaige's face was ashen, "How can you care about me? Ah?"
"Old Chen, the filming of "The Promise" failed three years ago. You promised me at that time that from now on I would be responsible for the production and off-site, and you would only be responsible for making the movie and not take care of anything else. You have always been getting worse and worse."
"But, what about Fang Yi?"
"I would rather you offend the older one than the younger one - if you must offend him, wait until he fails."
"What if he always succeeds?"
Chen Hong's eyebrows furrowed into a square shape, "Then why do you still want to offend him?"
