Chapter 1,126 In that era, there were really many, many such people
When Chen Xu asked this question, it was originally a normal question, but in the end, it made the whole audience burst into laughter.
"Okay, this question is unnecessary. Director Li is a gold medal screenwriter."
Chen Xu also knew why everyone laughed, because this question was indeed a bit redundant. After all, everyone knew that Li Yi was awesome because he could often produce scripts quickly and well.
"Director Li, please continue!" Chen Xu gestured to Li Yi to continue the topic he had just finished.
"We talked about this topic at the time, and then Director Zhao called me and wanted to make an appointment with me for a movie, but I actually didn't have any ideas at the time, so we discussed together again. At this stage, what kind of (main theme) do the audiences like?
)Movie?"
"Oh? Director Li, what kind of theme movies do you think the audience likes? Director Li, it seems that every time you direct, you can hit the audience's favorite type. Can you share it with us?" Chen Xu interjected and asked.
Each host has his own hosting style. Obviously Chen Xu's style is that he likes to extend the answer to one question to other questions.
Li Yi didn't care about this.
He smiled and said: "I told Director Zhao at the time that our domestically produced movies with the main theme are rooted in reality and are almost all adapted from real deeds. Logically speaking, such adaptations based on real deeds should be more down-to-earth, but many movies
But it all had the opposite effect, why?”
"The main theme of movies in the past was to pursue the perfect hero. The hero has no flaws and is perfect in all aspects. It is unreal, so it makes people feel a bit unreal and ungrounded. Now, they take "Garland Under the Mountain" as an example. Heroes should be
It has its own shortcomings, which makes it more down-to-earth, so why are these movies with the main theme this year clearly down-to-earth, but in the end, they are not even as good as the movies in the past?"
"Yes, why?" Chen Xu followed up.
"I personally think there are two reasons. On the one hand, being down-to-earth is one thing, but heroes can have shortcomings, but the premise is that although this shortcoming is a shortcoming, it is not the kind that is unforgivable.
, unacceptable shortcomings.
For example, a hero can be reckless but not brainless. He can be tidy but not slovenly. He can handle family relationships poorly but cannot be violent. He cannot handle neighbor relations poorly but cannot have evil thoughts. He can be arrogant.
But you can’t be indifferent and so on.”
"People can have shortcomings. Heroes are also human beings. Of course, they can also have shortcomings. We allow shortcomings to exist. The audience also needs to see the shortcomings of the protagonist, but they cannot blindly believe in shortcomings. No matter what you do to make up for some shortcomings,
, are obviously very difficult to accept!”
"On the other hand, it's a matter of subject matter." Li Yi added.
But his words made people a little confused.
"A matter of subject matter?"
"Yes, I personally think that the subject matter of the movie cannot be divorced from reality, but it cannot be too real." Li Yi put forward another extremely surprising point of view.
"How do you say that?"
"For example, take "The World" as an example. People like Lu Guangda and Li Yizhou in it are very real, but in fact, to a certain extent, they are not so real for this era. In fact, there is a distance.
There is a sense of distance, and this sense of distance is caused by the different times."
"Are you willing to remain anonymous for the rest of your life? Regarding this question, I believe that for people in this era, few people are willing to believe that there are many such people in our era. This is created by the times, because it is difficult for people to be around them.
It’s hard to see people like this, so if “The Birth of the World” had been told differently and set in this era, it would definitely be scolded as being too fake!
But in that era, everyone was willing to believe that there were really many, many such people in that era!
At least personally, I believe there are still such people in this era, but obviously not too many. In that era, people seemed to have some indescribable belief, and they lived for this belief and for this kind of belief.
Faith can endure hardships, shed blood and sweat, and even sacrifice one's life. Nowadays, this kind of faith seems to have disappeared in the minds of Chinese people and is hard to find. Perhaps, with the passage of time, this faith will be regained by people and become a new symbol of faith.
We fought hard and sacrificed for it. But at least, nowadays, it is difficult for people to believe that there are such people living around us."
"Submit it to the country, I believe everyone knows this, right?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
The audience at the scene laughed and said, "I know!"
"I just saw everyone laughing. I actually laughed when I heard this joke. But we have to know that in those days, this was really a normal thing, but in our time
The times make people laugh, which is worth pondering!"
"Let's talk about movies. Why do I think that you can't deviate from the facts, but you can't be too real? Because if you are too real, it will become unreal!
For example, I remember that a movie released in the first half of the year was also based on real events, called "Doctor Without Borders"!
The protagonist in it, between his own children and other people's children, chose to save other people's children instead of his own.
After this movie was released, it was criticized and scolded by many people. Why is this happening?
What did he do wrong? No, right?
This kind of self-sacrifice spirit is probably what many people hope to see in others, but why is it still criticized by so many people?
In fact, the reason is similar to what I mentioned before, because he appeared in modern times, in our current era, so many people do not believe that there is such a person, or they think that such a person may exist, but it is too
Too few, too few, almost hard to see."
The column team fell into silence for a while.
Because what Li Yi said is true. But this fact makes people feel uncomfortable.
But this is the fact.
"Ahem, Director Li, how did you come up with the idea of placing such words in the first place?" Chen Xu quickly changed the subject and asked.
"Ha, I was writing a script at home, and I received a call from Director Zhao. He asked me if the battle was too big. I was confused at the time. They were filming a Qin Dynasty scene.
Coming out of the Qin Palace, it doesn’t seem like much for me to film a scene to restore the original scene, right?"
"But Director Zhao said that there were seven or eight extra satellites above our heads, which shocked the friendly countries. I was stupid at the time." Li Yi said with a smile.
"He said to Director Li that it was because the movement you were filming was so loud that it looked like a nuclear test on the ground. People thought you were going to restart nuclear testing again. He asked if you could publish a formal message in an official newspaper to prove it.
You are making a story-telling movie in this area! Not doing nuclear testing."
"My first reaction at the time was, are the allies concerned too much? I just felt aggrieved. It was just a movie, what about that? As for so many satellites flying overhead every day? So, I thought, okay
There are so many movies to be made in the studio, all with guns and weapons, why do you pay so much attention to us when you come here? So, I came up with those words!"
