Chapter 551: People are sitting at home, and pots come from the sky
The new issue of Jingnan TV's "Things About Movies" is the first issue of a completely new version of the program, so Fang Nan has secured more publicity resources for the program.
In addition, this issue can indeed be said to be full of useful information and gimmicks. Therefore, Jingnan TV Station began to warm up the new revision of "Movie Things" very early.
This episode of the program directly focuses on the shooting scene of the new film "War Meridian" directed by Li Yi, the most anticipated and most talked about gift film at the moment.
Therefore, it did attract the attention of many viewers.
After all, "War Meridian" is indeed attracting a lot of attention, which can be seen from the fact that some of the filming tidbits that are often released receive a large number of clicks.
But this time, Jingnan TV Station, "Those Movies" went directly to the filming site, which is still full of expectations for movie fans.
However, after this episode of "Movie Things" was aired, the ratings were not in vain for Fang Nan's careful preparation.
Not only that, this issue directly touched the filming site of "War Meridian" and aroused a lot of heated discussion.
Especially for Li Yi and "War Meridian".
"Damn it, I just said that a dog director is not a human being. It seems like he won't be able to make a movie unless a lot of people die!"
"Director Dog, as expected of you, you can make everyone's eyes swell like that during filming. Everyone, I have a bad feeling. Director Dog is going to make a comeback in this movie! It's still the original formula, it's still the same
The original taste!”
"Isn't this already expected? A movie made by a dog director, if you don't cry, is it still a dog director?"
"Although it's a bit cynical to say this, I still have to say, why do I look forward to it more and more when I see the crew crying like that during filming?"
"Upstairs, you are really mean, not a little bit mean!"
"You're upstairs, don't look at me if you have the guts!"
"Upstairs, I still have something to say. Compared with me, I'm not only looking forward to it, but I'm actually a little excited..."
Don't look at the movie fans, it has become a normal thing to scold directors, but I don't know how many directors are envious and jealous of them.
Damn it, they also want to be scolded. After all, these idiot movie fans are scolded and are not ambiguous at all when it comes time to pay.
Li Yi has been scolded for so many years, but every time the movie is released, they all say that I am a dog this time. But in the end, when the movie is released, they all say, yes, I am.
Such a dog!
Time has quickly entered July, and the summer holiday season has begun.
This year is destined to be a year of theme movies, because this summer, more than five theme movies were released.
No way, who makes this year special?
As for the movie promotion, everyone worked together to promote the concept of the 70th anniversary in a tacit understanding.
Before the National Day release, it was said to be a warm-up for the 70th anniversary, and the release of the National Day release was a gift for the 70th anniversary.
Anyway, the atmosphere is quite enough.
As for Li Yi, the filming of "War Meridian" is also coming to an end.
After all, this is not a "big production". In my memory, the original version cost no more than 500,000 yuan.
When I got to Li Yi, I wasn't short of money, but there wasn't much to spend money on, and the actors weren't any big names, so the remuneration was negligible.
But the treatment of "War Meridian" is a proper blockbuster treatment.
Although this year can be regarded as the year of theme movies, the few theme movie blockbusters released in the summer are not the kind of blockbusters.
Not only that, even the movie "City of Life and Death" about the Jinling Massacre, directed by Lu Jing, known as the sixth generation of Chinese directors, was released in July this year, causing huge controversy.
This road scene film took three years to create and was filmed in black and white. According to his own words, he strived to present a historical texture and highlight the documentary style of the film.
It's a pity that my butt is crooked.
The film actually devotes a lot of ink to a Japanese soldier. This Japanese soldier turns out to be a clue character throughout the entire film, from entering the city at the beginning, to the massacre, to the final collapse and suicide. From a single character's perspective, the opponent turned out to be the whole character.
The film has the most ink and the most three-dimensional images. Seeing the Japanese soldiers slaughtering Chinese people, his mood went from shock to entanglement. He simply used his true feelings towards the Japanese comfort women in order to save a Chinese woman in the rescue center from being insulted.
, he listened to her words and shot and killed her. In the end, he secretly let the two Chinese people go and even committed suicide in a breakdown.
Although many scenes of blood and tears in the film are quite shocking, such a rich and even humanized description of the Japanese has caused huge controversy and caused the audience to talk about it. Some viewers said, "Why do we have to use Japanese people?"
Filmed from a different perspective?", "Why are Japanese soldiers played so well?" Some viewers even pointed out, "Can the Japanese's final suicide atone for that tragic tragedy?"
However, in response to such controversy, director Lu Jing actually defended himself plausibly: "We Chinese have been reflecting on this massacre for more than 80 years and grieving for more than 80 years, but we have found that the world does not fully agree with our reflections.
.I think we have a mission, which is to make the whole world accept this fact, so we choose a way to tell this event that the world can accept, and we choose to let a Japanese reflect on the war and let him be crushed by the war.
"
In fact, this is not the only controversial point in "City of Life and Death".
At the end of the film, the victorious Japanese army held a grand sacrificial event. In contrast, at the beginning of the film, when thousands of Chinese people met a small group of Japanese soldiers, no one dared to resist, but instead held a collective
He raised his hand to surrender.
This also made many viewers indignant. They felt that Lu Jing's buttocks were sitting crookedly and thought that "this shows the Chinese people to be too indifferent and weak."
However, what makes people feel sad is that such a movie is just controversial. There are actually many people who think this movie is very good.
It is said that in the face of war, the people on either side are victims. War is just a group of brainwashed soldiers working for politicians.
And some people praised this movie to the heavens, and then in turn showed a sense of superiority that they didn't know where it came from, and actually said that those who belittled this movie and director Lu Jing were extreme nationalists!
After all, those so-called professionals have always classified movies like this: films recognized by the system must be main theme films, films recognized by the market must be commercial films, films recognized by the academy must be intellectual films, and films recognized by professionals
It must be an independent film.
According to this interpretation, "City of Life and Death" can be regarded as a commercial film with an independent intellectual theme.
Because the movie was controversial, it actually boosted the popularity of the movie, and the box office turned out to be pretty good.
Originally, whether this "City of Life and Death" was controversial or a blockbuster, it had nothing to do with Li Yi.
But Li Yi didn't expect that when a person was sitting at home, a pot would come from the sky.
