"Notice on Encouraging the Trial Screening of Low-Cost Films".
After the seminar, Fang Yi kept paying attention to People magazine to see if there was any record of him in it, and finally saw him in the new issue in September.
The picture above is of Ning Hao, Fang Yi, and Lu Chuan. The angle is quite good: Fang Yi is waving his hands and saying something, while the other two have their backs to the camera, exposing their buttocks and the back of their heads.
Why do you want to shoot like this?
Maybe the boss also likes someone who looks upright.
"For a long time, my country's small-budget films have been difficult to project, release, and make profits. At the recent young directors' seminar led by China Film Group, young directors from major universities spoke enthusiastically. Among them, the director Fang Fang Yi put forward such an opinion..."
"Expand the applicable scope of spot screenings; flexibly adjust the display rate."
"he thinks……"
"People" magazine is a key academic journal and a ministerial-level journal managed by the People's Publishing House. Very few actors can be included. The cover of the magazine will never use artistic photos of popular stars. Instead, it will select political and business figures with certain influence, and
The cover photo also has a serious tone.
The cover of this magazine is Jiang Zhiqiang, the producer of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero", "House of Flying Daggers" and other works. He is not well-known outside the industry, but he is a big name in the industry.
When can I go up there myself?
It's not on a page inside, but on the cover. If you just want to be an actor, unless you reach the level of Big Brother, it's almost impossible.
In addition, his own words were also changed a bit. Fang Yi's tone at the time was heavier than on paper, but the reporter gave him the Spring and Autumn Writing Method and changed it to "do it or not".
Fang Yi was worried that it would be harmful to himself and asked Jiang Wen to find out the situation.
Jiang Wen also read the magazine and explained: "Fang Yi, you must have proposed some specific measures, such as tax rebates, film development fund subsidies, etc., right?"
"how do you know?"
"Because I was young. In fact, this industry is going through a change now. I don't know if you feel it. It's like a storm is coming. It's like the eve of the collapse of state-owned studios... Screening is just a very small thing.
In terms of content creation, several generations of directors have been protesting and reforming since the 1980s, demanding the trial implementation of a film rating system. There are also other things, such as the pre-review system for scripts, which are directly related to the bulk of content creation. However, the struggle has lasted for so long.
It’s of no use.”
"There are so many movies made in China. It's not just you, Fang Yi, who suddenly discovered that you can do on-demand screenings or advance previews."
"But the matter of screening is indeed unimportant compared to the grading system, so no one bothered to mention it... Now you have become the leader by accident, and the peak is willing to let out some rumors. You
Cherish this identity and persona, you are a pioneer and a force for innovation...In the future, we will talk about historical status. If you become famous and need to talk about status, these things will be very important."
"The leader of the third generation of directors is generally recognized as Mr. Xie Jin; but there is no leader in our generation, and no one will accept it! The fifth generation is all directors of literary and artistic films. When it comes to your generation, someone may take the lead again, maybe not
Ning Hao, it’s you, I’ve been studying Taizu’s philosophy recently, things must be reversed when they reach their extremes, and things always go in the opposite direction.”
"Also, your movie is doing really well at the box office. I'm so jealous. It even has box office in Japan."
When I contacted Jiang Wen, "Love Is Afterlife" had already been released in mainland China. The final box office in the mainland was set at 8,700 yuan, which did not create the miracle of a billion-dollar club in a single market.
In addition to mainland China, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea were released a month later. The box office is currently good, and the total should exceed 100 million.
The box office in Japan is particularly good. Since the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism has been very popular among Japanese people, and handsome monks are even more popular. Because Japanese monks can marry and have children, they are usually large landowners passed down from their ancestors, and their financial strength makes them
The big Japanese lolita have a great sense of empathy.
Fang Yi is dubbed by the famous Japanese voice actor Jun Fukuyama. It is said that his voice is rather sultry and ascetic, which adds a lot to his appeal and makes fans of young women get wet after listening to it.
At the end of September, the Tokyo Film Festival announced its shortlist. Fang Yi was nominated for Best Actor for his role as a monk. The other award was Best Film, which had to compete with domestic films such as "Forever" and "Snow in Taipei."
The best orthodoxy lies in the East.
Therefore, it is expected that many people will go to the red carpet. Domestic filmmakers have made a lot of artistic films that no one will watch, and they may not win awards. If they don't go to the red carpet now, the actors in the drama will definitely lose their temper.
Fan Meiren is one of the best. This year there is a literary film "Wheatfield" - I know you have never heard of it. It is not important. Walking on the red carpet is the most important.
Chen Kun and Zhao Junqi landed in Tokyo with "Mulan", a similarly historical masterpiece.
Fang Yi has become a representative of the mainland film industry. He is the Chinese dubbing voice of the opening film "Up" and the closing film "Ocean". He is also a candidate for Best Actor. He is the star character.
Maybe many celebrities didn't expect this. They all bought the same flight. When they bumped into each other at the Beijing Airport, they suddenly didn't know who would take the lead.
When a group of mainland filmmakers went to the Golden Horse Awards to win awards, no one dared to speak in front of her with Gong Li there, and she was asked to add later.
This is "taking the lead".
The media's expectations are very high, and they have given these stars the title of "Chinese Legion." Although Chinese movies stretch the crotch, Oriental movies stretch the crotch even more, which is satisfactory in comparison.
Since the establishment of the East Film Festival, mainland filmmakers have been repeatedly denied awards due to the bug.
The first domestic A-category film festival winner was won in Tokyo, and the winner was a national director.
"Fang Yi, when you go to the Tokyo Film Festival this time, what are your prospects for yourself? Domestic fans are eagerly looking forward to it...Before you, there have been four Chinese actors named Tokyo Emperor. Will you be the fifth?
"
Another trivia: the top four movie kings, Guo Shi, Zhu Xu, Niu Zhenhua, and Leslie Cheung. Except for Leslie Cheung, who is a serious actor, the others are just for fun, not movie actors in the traditional sense.
Wait, Zhang Guorong's main business seems to be playing mahjong.
So Fang Yi was not too polite: "I hope I can live up to expectations, but this is not my decision. It depends on the preference of the chairman of the jury. Money cannot buy what he likes."
The youngest winner of a Category A award in China is Xia Yu, 17 years old.
Do you think his acting skills are really overwhelming? It's impossible, but the chairman of the judges likes it and is willing to make it happen. That's it.
The reporter asked again: "Then do you think the chairman of the jury will like you?"
Fang Yi originally wanted to answer only one question, but when he saw that the reporter’s logo was a souhu fox, he patiently said:
"The advantage is that "Love Is Afterlife" has similarities with the chairman of the jury's "Tower of Babel". I think he can appreciate it. I am talking about the version edited by director Yu Feihong, which is a version with several parallel story lines. I want you to watch it.
I may have to take notes several times before I can understand what's going on in the movie; in addition, I am young, which is an advantage rather than a disadvantage."
Reporter: "What are the disadvantages?"
"The disadvantage is that the theatrical version of "Love After Life" did well at the box office in Tokyo, which may have disgusted the jury; although "Love After Life" was filmed in the mountains, it did not film the backward China imagined by Westerners. We only filmed
Beautiful view…”
The reporter wondered: "Did you say it the other way around? You turned the disadvantages into advantages and the advantages into disadvantages."
Fang Yi shook his head, "I'm not saying no, it seems you haven't figured out the rules of the award yet. You need to do your homework first."
