Chapter 581: Interview
"Beyond imagination, the scale breaks through the unprecedented ......"
"The premiere shocked the audience, and the love scene lasted for half an hour......"
"The premiere unveils the mystery, Tang Wei ...... at three o'clock"
The next day, unsurprisingly, it made headlines in the entertainment pages of major online media. He Xin couldn't read the local newspaper, so he could only lie in front of the computer and read the news on the Internet.
Seeing all kinds of eye-catching headlines in the entertainment section, He Xin was disgusted in his heart. These domestic media reporters are really amateurish, and they hardly see any reports purely about movies, all of them are talking about things on a large scale.
In fact, as far as the movie itself is concerned, of course, it is a good movie, but the content reflected may not be worth mentioning in Europe and the United States, but as a person who grew up in a domestic environment, it seems politically incorrect.
It's no wonder that after watching the movie yesterday, Diao Yinan told him with a surprised look that he really didn't understand that this movie could pass the domestic censorship.
Diao Yinan's pointing, of course, is not the large-scale in the movie. As everyone in the circle knows, the rating in the United States is NC-17, which is a grade higher than the R grade, and it is also a restricted grade in Hong Kong, but it is said that some of the shots that are too exposed will be cut.
Because there is no classification in the mainland, anyone can watch it, and there is definitely no need to ask about this, and the footage that is a little out of place will be cut. Diao Yinan's surprise lies in the political implications reflected in the film.
As a sixth-generation director who made underground films, he obviously didn't understand this kind of operation by the relevant departments. Especially last night, they also met Lu Yue, the director of the shortlisted Horizon unit. I just asked how this movie, which was originally called eight years ago, passed the censorship.
As a result, Lu Yue came to a sentence, and the content was not changed, so he changed the name and passed.
How so?
There is no unified standard, and it is really speechless to rely on the likes and dislikes of the so-called "experts" who are responsible for the review.
One more thing, it has been set to be released on September 24, and before that, Jiang Wen's early schedule was set for September 17. There is no doubt that they all want to strike while the iron is hot, and if they can win an award, they will definitely be a box office hit. Think about the very artistic nature of the national teacher back then, but the viewing experience was very average, after winning the Golden Lion Award, it still won 30 million box office in China, second only to pants, and became the runner-up of the annual film box office in the mainland that year.
Of the four Chinese films shortlisted for this year's film festival, the most eye-catching ones are Li Yu's and Jiang Wen's, just as the day before yesterday as soon as the film festival opened, the headline of the Zalang Entertainment version was - "Venice opens, start the battle for the lion".
As for the same shortlisted works, naturally they can't be compared with the works of these two directors, and the domestic release schedule was directly arranged by Yu Dong to mid-October.
There is no way, there are Hollywood movies starring Catherine Zeta-Jones and Hong Kong films directed by Johnny To and Lin Lingdong in the National Day file released one after another.
......
"Meta reporter, how do you ......"
When He Xin saw Yuan Lei in the hotel lobby, he almost didn't dare to recognize it, and the whole person was fat.
"Gain weight, right, no way, drink cold water to grow meat!"
He was embarrassed to say that the other party was fat, but Yuan Lei was very free.
Today she didn't come alone, and she was followed by a very fashionable little girl, He Xin looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while.
"Who is this?"
Fang Yimin is a reporter from the Ministry of Culture of Nandu. ”
The little girl took the initiative to introduce herself, and at the same time smiled: "Teacher He, I have interviewed you before. ”
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, look at my memory! No wonder I looked familiar just now. He Xin suddenly realized and apologized.
Then he was a little curious: "How did you two act collectively today?"
"Originally, I wanted to interview Tang Wei, but I didn't make an appointment, so I wanted you to try my luck here, and I happened to run into Yimin when I came over, so I came together. He Da Yingdi, give face, let's do an interview!" Yuan Lei smiled.
She has a good relationship with He Xin, and she seems to speak more casually than ordinary people.
He Xin also smiled: "I have something to interview, if you want to interview, you should also interview our Director Diao, or Tong Yali can do it!"
Yuan Lei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly said, "Okay, then please make an appointment for us." ”
The busiest part of participating in film festivals is to deal with interviews from all walks of life, and not to mention that movies need to be promoted.
He Xin helped make a phone call, but Diao Yinan was not there, and this guy always acted alone. Tong Yali is like him, her foreign language level is worrying, and without Chen Zhixi to take her, she can only nest in the room alone.
I heard that a reporter was going to interview her, and she said excitedly that she would put on makeup and get down immediately.
"Director Diao is not here, Xiao Tong will come down in a while. ”
"Thank you! Xiao Fang has always wanted to do an interview with you, don't you mind?" said Yuan Lei.
"Of course I can trust the people you introduced. ”
After being in the circle for a long time, He Xin spoke much more flexibly than before. He is not familiar with Fang Yimin in front of him, but he is friends with Yuan Lei, and the implication is that he is telling Fang Yimin that he is being interviewed completely for the sake of Yuan Lei's face.
After sitting down at the coffee bar next to the lobby, she turned on the recorder, opened the small notebook, and asked the first question: "Mr. He, you said in an interview before that going to Venice is victory, does it also mean that you are not confident in winning the award?"
He Xin was mixing coffee, and when he heard this slightly sharp question, his hand paused slightly, and then said with a smile: "You should ask Director Diao this question, not me." The only thing I can tell you is that I don't dare to think about the award for the actor now. ”
"Why? Are you dissatisfied with your performance?"
"Well, I can't say I'm not satisfied, at least I've tried my best in this play, but no one can say that the performance is bad, you can't say that you think you can kill everyone if you act well, it's unrealistic. So, I don't usually expect anything like that. You don't have extravagant expectations, and even if you don't win in the end, you won't be too disappointed. ”
"Xia Yu has won the Best Actor here, and Uncle Ge and Tony have both won the Best Actor in Cannes, don't you want to be the fourth Chinese actor to win this honor?"
"Tony?"
He Xin's reaction was obviously slow, and then he reacted: "You are talking about Mr. Liang Chaowei, at least after I watched it yesterday, I felt that he had more hope of winning the award than me." ”
"Do you think he did a good job?"
"Of course, if it were me, I would definitely not be as expressive as he acted. ”
Fang Yimin followed his words and asked, "Then can you talk about Tang Wei? I heard that she had an unpleasant relationship with you in order to take over this play?"
Sometimes it's really hard to have any secrets in the entertainment industry, and the fact that Tang Wei released his pigeons was something that the company knew about it in a small area. But since it became popular, especially after being shortlisted for this year's Venice Film Festival, there has been a rumor: Tang Wei resigned in order to take it, and his former friends turned against him.
Of course, it is impossible for He Xin to admit this statement.
"I don't know where you heard this gossip. I can tell you responsibly that there must not be such a thing, otherwise I wouldn't have been there last night, don't you say?"
Fang Yimin pursed her lips, didn't dwell on this question anymore, and still said according to the question she had prepared in advance: "You have won the Golden Horse Award, the Golden Rooster Award, and this year's Huabiao Award, it can be said that in the Chinese film industry, you are already a top actor." Have you ever thought about making a breakthrough in the world, or do you plan to go abroad and develop in Hollywood like Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li?"
"Yo, then you think too highly of me. I don't even speak English, how dare I have such big ambitions? I still honestly develop in China, Hollywood or something, I really don't dare to think about it!"
"As for what you said about making a breakthrough in the world, this is not something I want to achieve. You may not know that the breakthrough you are talking about is completely a combination of time, place, people, and script. Ouch, I think this time it was a very good performance, this subtlety seems to be more complicated than the performance of the athletes in the stadium, it's hard to say, it's really hard to say, I'm just hoping that God willing, maybe I'll be able to play like this once. ”
Fang Yimin changed the conversation again and asked, "Can you talk?"
"This ...... As far as movies go, it's undoubtedly a very good one. And not only Liang Chaowei, Tang Wei also performed very well and was very brave. I especially admire Director Li Yan's training of the actors, he let me see another Tang Wei. ”
Director Li Yu also said in an interview that this time he hopes that the actor can be recognized the most. Do you think Tang Wei has any hope of getting the actress this time?"
"Well, that's easy to say, and like I said, this subtlety is really hard to say. ”
"I just noticed that you used the word brave when describing Tomway, you mean ......"
He Xin knew what Fang Yimin wanted to ask, but he really didn't want to answer this kind of topic, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Reporter Fang, let's talk." ”
"Uh, I'm sorry, Mr. He. ”
Fang Yimin obviously knew each other very well, flipped through the small book in his hand, and asked: "Mr. He, it should be the third movie you have acted in about the theme of educated youth, I want to ask, when you grasp the role of Ma Jie, what is the difference between you and the role of educated youth you created before?"
"There's definitely something different about every character......"
