When the show started, the atmosphere was obviously relatively harmonious. Everyone was already acquainted with each other, and they knew about each other's topics. It all depended on the performance of the show. Moreover, for such a special topic with big names, then
It is a great test of the host's skills. Han Shanping, Zhang Yimou, Ye Ming, and Zhang Ziyi are four people here this time, and each of them can be regarded as an outstanding top character in the industry. With such a lineup, ordinary hosts are really
It is said that it is impossible to participate in this show. But Zhu Jun is indeed experienced and has the aura to control the situation.
I introduced the Third Master straight to the point. This is a must, because as long as there are officials present, if you want to introduce, you must introduce the officials. This is an unspoken rule.
Next is the great director Zhang Yimou, who is a national director. This is understandable. The status of a director who has applied for the Olympics can be imagined.
Next, Ye Ming was introduced, which is understandable. Under such circumstances, Ye Ming's achievements were enough for him to sit with Director Zhang.
As for the next Zhang Ziyi, although there is something wrong with Ye Ming, I have to admit Zhang Ziyi's efforts. No matter whether she is arrogant or indifferent, her efforts are also the cornerstone of her step by step journey to where she is today. Berlin Film Festival, isn't it?
An actor can win an award if he goes there.
Of course, everyone knows that Zhang Ziyi was able to sit here entirely because of Zhang Yimou's favor.
Who doesn’t know that Lao Zhang is a fan of Zhang Ziyi? And then, Zhu Jun actually started talking about the movies of Han Shanping and Zhang Yimou when they were young, and then talked about the fifth generation of Chinese directors, and talked about yellow earth and red sorghum.
.Although Ye Ming, Brother Chen Kai, is also a little unhappy about whose work Yellow Earth is, at least it is clearly owned by Brother Chen Kai, and this movie also sets a precedent.
Of course the classic one is Lao Zhang’s Red Sorghum.
At this time, Zhu Jun began to talk about the breakthrough of Red Sorghum, intentionally or unintentionally, in order to pave the way for the following topics. Sure enough, at the end, he moved to Ye Ming's crazy rocks. At this time, talking about
Let’s start talking about market economy.
The market economy of movies must be mentioned, and it is precisely because of this that Crazy Stone has a special status in the history of Chinese movies.
This is a classic dark horse movie, so dark that it is impossible to get around even if the history of Chinese movies is written in the future.
When Zhu Jun said this, he immediately and cleverly raised a core question today: "Director Zhang, in terms of box office, the movie Crazy Stone is very successful, and the market has certified this.
To be honest, the box office performance is somewhat unsatisfactory. How do you evaluate these two movies? In terms of market economy, what are their successes and failures?"
The central topic is actually the reform of the market economy. At this point, Zhu Jun said this point of view and breathed a long sigh of relief. It is not easy. This kind of interview with a task nature is the most test for a host.
If you can't control it well, it will be a fatal blow to this program.
Obviously, Zhu Jun mastered the situation quite well this time. Up to now, everything that should be said has basically been revealed.
The purpose of raising this question is to see how Zhang Yimou copes with this problem. This is a direct test of Zhang Yimou's EQ and IQ.
If the answer to the question is not good, it will be very offending. Even Zhu Jun only dared to mention this question in the program after seeking Zhang Yimou's consent. Otherwise, he would not have done that.
Zhu Jun is not afraid of directly offending two great directors, Lao Zhang and Lao Chen, but the key is whether it is worth doing something like this. If it is not worth it, then Zhu Jun will not do it.
But now, it seems that for the needs of the show, this is worth it. Now let’s see how Zhang Yimou takes the move.
Zhang Yimou also had a headache for a while. This kind of offending work is obviously not the style of Zhu Jun, a good old man. What this girl is good at is sensationalism. Just like the stories in Qiong Yao's novels, if you die in art and life, you will die or not.
I cried a few times, and it seemed like something was missing. Even if Uncle Benshan came up, what a ridiculous person he was, he still had the urge to make people wipe their tears. This is Zhu Jun's skill.
Zhu Jun would generally not do this to offend others.
But this time there is no way. This time it is not an interview that Zhu Jun wants, but a leader. The leader must ask Zhu Jun to say this. By the way, he talks about movies and market economy, and finally talks about market economy reform.
, this was all agreed upon in advance. The leader had spoken, so Zhu Jun naturally did not dare not listen.
Zhang Yimou also had a dark face and said bravely: "As for this matter, when talking about these two movies, we must first talk about the success criteria of a movie.
In our entertainment industry, the standard for measuring a movie is from two aspects. One is the art department, which means whether the movie has artistic value. For example, Coppola's box office will definitely be destroyed by other movies.
A clean one. Of course, the box office of this work is not as high as I mentioned before, but as far as literary and artistic films are concerned, it is quite good.
But in terms of artistry, it is definitely a monumental work. Qiao Qian, I am not saying that your Harry Potter is too good, but in terms of art, reflection on human nature, etc., Harry Potter is indeed left behind by several avenues.
go."
Ye Ming owns the copyright of Harry Potter, so Zhang Yimou said this at this time to adjust the atmosphere.
Ye Ming waved his hand with a smile and said: "I have worked with Director Coppola. The director of Infernal Affairs is Director Coppola. To me, this director is like a mountain, which keeps me high.
It is said that his works are more artistic and more humanistic than Harry Potter.
I don’t think anyone objects to this. In fact, Harry Potter is a children’s literature. You can’t expect a group of children to discuss war, human nature and so on.” At this time, the atmosphere at the scene began to become a little lively. In such a
Under the circumstances, Zhang Ziyi seems a bit redundant.
The topic these three people talked about was simply lofty. Coppola, well, haven’t you heard of his name? You should have heard of The Godfather, right? It has definitely entered the top 100 Hollywood classics.
Zhang Ziyi can't get in on this stuff. Under such a situation, Zhang Ziyi can't talk about domestic movies. She really doesn't have the qualifications to get in on foreign movies.
Needless to say, Lao Zhang, her backer, Han Shanping, she dare not compare with, Ye Ming, they did cooperate with Coppola, Infernal Affairs is also a classic Hong Kong movie, these are things Zhang Ziyi cannot refute.
Moreover, at this time, it seemed that Zhu Jun had no intention of asking Zhang Ziyi.
In fact, inviting Zhang Ziyi to come was just to see Zhang Yimou's face. At this time, Zhu Jun immediately brought the topic back and said: "The common people don't care about this. What they care about is the box office. In fact, in the hearts of ordinary people, Harry Potter
It looks even cuter, which is also an important reason why the box office of Harry Potter is very high. The market economy is an important indicator of testing a movie. At least the people vote with the box office, right?"
Zhang Yimou nodded and said: "That's right, that's what I'm talking about. In such a situation, the second criterion for the success of a movie we are talking about is the box office. The world's movie box office rankings can
It can be seen at a glance. I won’t say more about the box office of the number one Titanic. It makes people feel distressed to say too much. How many years will China have to work for this movie? If it is converted into Chinese currency, then this box office will be enough.
I have been making movies for ten or eight years.
This is the most direct and simple way in Hollywood, box office. Whoever has a higher box office will get more funds, privileges, and even stars."
The market economy rules Hollywood. This is the same no matter if you are a producer, a big film company, or even the super director Spielberg. If you have a high box office, you are a hero. Not everyone can shoot literary and artistic films.
came out.
Zhu Jun immediately said: "Speaking of which, the movies directed by Brother Chen Kai are considered to be of high standard in China in terms of stars, investment, and directors. The supporting actors are all Lao Zhao. Later, when Lao Zhao came, he complained about the director Chen Kai, and his scenes
In the end, they were all deleted, and this time it was clean. This movie directed by Chen Kaige was a high-end work no matter what kind of hardware it was, but in the end it was ruthlessly wiped out by the market. This has to be said to be a pity.
.”
Maybe Brother Chen Kai didn't come, no matter what the reason was, but you didn't come. I'm sorry, but how can you be worthy of my saliva? Therefore, in such a situation, Zhu Jun seemed to be cheating.
Chen Kaige pulled him into the water.
At this time, Zhang Yimou could only continue to say: "Well, all of Brother Kai's hardware is good, and his skills are also very good, but the screenwriter is too bad. This is a very flaw. In the end
When I watched it, I just couldn't understand what he was trying to express in the movie. I couldn't even figure it out, so at a time like this, I think there will definitely be no less viewers who can figure it out.
Therefore, if the box office is not ideal, it is reasonable. I just said that I did not expect that the box office of this movie was actually so dismal that people are unwilling to say it.” (To be continued)
