Chapter 584: What Movies Does the Director Know?
Innovators, make the cake of the Paradise Island Film Festival bigger, and then introduce more people to share the cake together, try to be fair and just, and the rain and dew are evenly wet.
The predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade.
Such a character will naturally be respected by future generations.
So when this respected director appeared, most of the audience stood up and applauded vigorously to show their respect.
Other people who don't know the details of the big director, when they see others doing this, they should also realize that the other party's identity is different, and naturally follow the crowd.
This applause lasted for a long time.
The big director's face also showed a happy smile. He stood in front of the microphone and whispered, "Thank you, thank you." ”
The warm applause slowly subsided.
After everyone sat down again, the big director continued: "Actually, I'm retired, and I can't stand the pain of running around when I'm old. But Carl came to me and told me......"
It's time for the Paradise Island Film Festival to change again.
Just like back then, in the midst of a dead and stagnant situation, he made drastic innovations to revitalize the festival.
Carl now intends to do just that.
His support is needed.
Of course, these words, he did not intend to utter.
So the big director smiled slightly and put it another way, "He told me that when I was the president of the jury for the first time, I didn't have much experience and didn't know what to do...... can pretend to be very proficient. ”
"I told him it was easy. ”
He looked around to the left and right, and under the gaze of some people, he chuckled: "What others suggest you do, don't listen to them, just go against them." ”
The big director paused and shrugged helplessly, "Well, it seems that he really didn't listen to me at the moment." ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they reacted.
At the moment, there was a burst of laughter.
Ha ha......
In the exclusive seat, Carl was also laughing, giving a thumbs up.
The big director smiled and picked up the envelope, "Okay, no kidding, let me take a look at who the best director is this year." ”
The laughter of everyone immediately subsided, looking forward to and paying attention.
After all, the Best Director trophy is the highest level of personal honor. or ordinary passers-by and fans, who are more concerned about the actor or the queen.
But in the industry, one thing is clear.
The director is like the supreme commander of the army, and the quality of a film and television work is largely determined by the quality and cultivation of the director.
A good director can win countless actors and actresses to determine the success or failure of the movie.
Therefore, the status and authority of the director are definitely at the top of the pyramid.
This year's festival......
No.
To be precise, every year the film festival is full of masters.
This year is no exception.
The camera swept over, and seven or eight directors appeared on the big screen. They are either calm or smiling and waving, and their expressions are different. No matter how big the waves in their hearts are, they will not show it easily.
Until the answer is announced, no one can be sure who the trophy will belong.
Because as long as the quality of the movie is not bad, everyone has their own aesthetic tendencies, some people think that this movie is good, and some people think that other movies are masterpieces.
In this case, there is naturally a controversy.
Even if it's money, it's not everyone's love.
After all, someone once said that they are not interested in money and never touch money.
It's hard to reconcile.
Those with high scores may not win prizes.
The rating is average, and there is also the possibility of counterattack.
Who received such an honor?
......
In the crowd, Yang Fan's seemingly calm expression was full of longing.
After so many years in the industry, he has won many trophies. But there has never been a more desperate desire to get the honor of best director.
In recent years, there have been many newcomers in China.
One by one, young directors occupy a position on the box office list.
The once beautiful directors seem to be unable to keep up with the trend of the times, unable to grasp the pulse of the times, and have sunk into the sand.
Industry rumors that the industry has come to the time of renewal.
When the big director is old, he has to admit the reality, and if he is smart enough to rush to the emergency and retreat, he can still retain some dignity.
Even if you don't make movies, you can rely on your qualifications and prestige to be a mascot.
During the New Year's holidays and activities, stand on a platform and say a few words of blessing, you can easily earn a generous remuneration, how fragrant.
But Yang Fan was not reconciled.
He felt that he was not old, that it was not time for retirement. Even if it is another ten years, he can still make amazing movies.
So he wants to win the prize, hold the golden pineapple, and prove it to the world.
Ginger is still old and spicy.
Life is endless, and the struggle is endless.
What can he do!!
......
Knock knock knock!
In the sound effects that come with the stage, the big director on the stage pointed the card at the camera with his backhand and reported a person's name.
After a few seconds of silence, cheers rang out.
Yang Fan's face appeared hideous, and then it turned gloomy.
A beam of light passed by him.
And then froze.
Everyone's eyes converged on the past.
And then......
Zhou Mu felt a little dazzling.
After all, the wattage of the spotlight is still relatively high and dazzling.
He squinted slightly.
"Director!"
Han Xiaoman screamed in surprise, she seemed to be a little incredulous, and after a moment of trance, she looked to the side intently, ready to celebrate with Zhou Mu.
At first glance, she bit her red lip and realized that she was slow again. I saw that at this time, Zhou Mu and Xu Lime had already hugged each other.
"Congratulations, Best Director. ”
Xu Qinglime hugged it lightly and let go, smiling like the moon.
"Fluke!"
Zhou Mu chuckled, turned around and shook hands with Han Yi, the other party smiled brightly, "Director, I know you can definitely do it, nine out of ten ......"
"Luck!"
Zhou Mu is not proud.
shook hands one by one, hugged one by one, walked through the crowd, walked on the stage, and then received the golden pineapple trophy from the hands of the big director on stage.
"Congratulations, young man. ”
The big director also seemed to sigh a little, patted Zhou Mu's shoulder with his palm, and then simply walked off the stage with the support of the host.
On the spacious stage, only Zhou Mu's figure remained.
Alone, all eyes on you.
He lifted the trophy, and the audience burst into applause.
While applauding, many also looked at Zhou Mu on the stage curiously. The first reaction is that this best director is too young.
Is there a thirty year old?
This year's film festival is really unexpected.
The first is to give the actress to a seven-year-old girl. Now the honor of best director is going to be awarded to a young man.
Such an operation will definitely cause countless controversies.
Cal......
Many people's eyes couldn't help but shift to the front row.
There is no reason for it, and there is no need for any evidence. They could be sure right away that there must be traces of Carl's behind-the-scenes operations.
In fact, the moment the big director just came to the forefront.
Some smart people know it in their hearts.
This is a signal.
A film festival should make a signal of change.
And so it is.
When Zhou Mu picked up the trophy, many people's faces changed. Change means that someone's interests are hurt.
As vested interests, they must be dissatisfied.
Despite the fact that the Paradise Island Film Festival is known internationally. But many people know in their hearts that this so-called international is generally the international of the Western District.
Many awards are "monopolized" in the hands of people in the West End.
Every few years, some awards will be awarded to people from other districts to maintain the name of international awards and encourage filmmakers from other districts to actively participate.
The jury had a tacit understanding on this point.
But now, Carl has broken that tacit understanding.
Several awards in the main competition unit, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Director, were all awarded to the Eastern District.
This is to throw the face of the West Side directly on the ground and step on it. This is no longer about dividing the cake, but simply giving all the finished cakes to others.
Think about it, how can such behavior be satisfying?
If it weren't for the live broadcast, it is estimated that some people rushed directly to ask which side Carl was on.
Eat inside and crawl outside, traitor!
Some people were indignant, they felt that if there was no Lin Jiayu, Luo Qingtang, and Zhou Mu, they would definitely be qualified to win the "Golden Pineapple" award.
!!!
The applause slowly fell silent.
Zhou Mu approached the microphone and said with a smile: "Thank you, this feeling is very good, addictive, and I can't stop it." ”
"Presumably, many people present should know this kind of taste......"
These words made the corners of some people's mouths upturn and show a smile, which is a smug look and an aftertaste. They knew that what Zhou Mu said was very correct.
If you don't stand on the stage and don't hold the trophy, you won't understand the excitement of being proud of who is the opponent and walking to the top of the mountain.
Empty eyes, only me.
Excited, inflated.
There is no greater pinnacle of life than this.
So many people, after winning a grand prize, still want to win a second or third...... Endless.
It's hard to ...... though.
It's also more challenging.
"Thanks to the team, it was their assistance that I was able to complete the film. I am grateful to my family and friends, their support is the source of my creative path. ”
Zhou Mu's voice was not fast, and he was slow and reasonable, "I have been in the industry for so many years, and many people have asked me what the meaning of the movie is. ”
"Huh?"
The reactions of the people below were mixed.
Some people looked indifferent, some listened attentively, and some looked disdainful, feeling that a young director like Zhou Mu couldn't answer this question.
But it doesn't matter who it is.
At this moment, unless you cover your ears. Otherwise, Zhou Mu's voice clearly came into everyone's ears.
"I was very surprised by this question. Zhou Mu said lightly: "A movie is a movie, does it need any meaning? At least for me, the movie has no meaning." ”
"Huh?"
Many people were stunned and a little more focused.
"A movie is a story. ”
Zhou Mu continued: "If someone watches the movie and thinks that one of the plots, a sentence, a scene, and a character, it seems that they are all telling their own stories......"
"That's his own business, it's not about the director. ”
He chuckled and said, "The director is the one who is responsible for shouting action, what kind of movie do you know?"
Yes?
After being stunned, applause and laughter exploded.
