Chapter 214: Interviewed
A week later, the official website of the Magic Capital International Film Festival announced the jury lineup, and it was Chu Shun's name as the chairman of the jury that was ranked first, and the rest of the names were according to the strokes of the surname, and the ranking was not in order.
Therefore, the surnames "B", "Diao", "Ding", and "Bu" are unique, and most of the time they are in the front.
Chu Shun's photo was sent to the organizing committee by himself, not because he didn't care about the image, mainly because he didn't appear much on the Internet, and he was afraid that the staff would not be easy to operate, so Chu Shun asked Genie to take a few photos by the way.
I forgot to mention that Genie is the photographer of "Zhizu GQ", and in the fashion circle of the entertainment industry, there are five big and two small female stars, while male stars have two big and three small rankings.
"Zhizu GQ" is the ceiling of the men's magazine, this Genie met at the Bazaar charity dinner last time, and the shooting skills are quite good.
It didn't take long for the official website of the Modu International Film Festival to release this news, but not many people paid attention to it, because the judges were already in the industry and the people in the industry paid more attention, and the people who ate melons had no motivation to pay attention, and the news reports also paid the most attention to the fact that Chu Shun was the youngest chairman of the jury.
Young is young, but almost no one questions whether Chu Shun is qualified enough, this thing has won all the major awards at home and abroad, what the hell is it questioning?
But why is it almost ...... Because there are always some people's brain circuits that you can't figure out, Chu Shun has heard it many times, "Liu Yifei is a man".
Seriously, does it matter whether it is a man or a woman when she grows up like Liu Yifei?
"Tokyo Godfather" failed to set off the "Matrix" frenzy, which is too normal, but hackers are a big hit around the world, and they can't be compared at all.
The domestic box office had 75.44 million on the first day and 280 million in the first week, which is quite good as a big animated movie.
"When will Director Chu shoot an animation with a domestic theme?"
"It's difficult to have a big investment in domestic animation, the key is that you can't leverage such a large amount of capital, but I think Director Chu is no problem at all!"
"The godfather is very exciting, the Liver Emperor is really an almighty spokesperson, he understands everything, my requirements are not high, it is enough to give me half of the ability of the Liver Emperor. ”
"Who pees yellow, wakes him up, and returns half of it? ”
"Tsk, the domestic box office is completely profitable, and there are still people who say that they want to lose money?"
The return of Nezha and the Great Sage of Yuandi Star started the rise of Guoman, the development of Guoman on Earth is really interesting, and in the sixties and seventies, Shangmei's "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" and "Nezha in the Sea" are extremely powerful existences in the world.
Then 10 years later, he relied on the return of the magic pill and the great sage to blow the horn of the rise of Guoman again, like a reincarnation.
Yuan Dixing is not so lucky, and the current best box office of Guoman is the theatrical version of children's anime.
To get back to the point, "Tokyo Godfather" has basically no box office except for China and island countries, and the United States is a little higher, perhaps the audience has a sense of substitution for the homeless, plus Chu Shun's last work is too popular, and it actually has more than 1.4 million US dollars in the first week.
You must know that on the earth, the total box office of the United States is only more than 100,000 US dollars, and Chu Shun surpassed it in one wave.
"Do I want to learn from Section Chief Jia?" pretending to be a prisoner, Chu Shun fell into deep thought.
Jia Zhangke single-handedly held a Pingyao International Film Festival, making Pingyao, a small city, world-renowned, and even the Pingyao Film Festival in Asia, second only to the Magic City Film Festival, which is called a cow.
"In fact, it's not quite, the Pingyao Film Festival can get up, and it should be due to Marco Muller. Chu Shun still has more respect for this Italian.
Because the fifth generation of directors of the earth's Chinese films can be famous all over the world, Marco has made a great recommendation, he has served as the chairman of many film festivals, as long as he goes, he will try his best to recommend Chinese films.
"I don't need Mark's help, if I want to do a film festival, I can do it all by myself. Chu Shun has this confidence, even if he is full, he will have passed five years, but seven movie features and one animation feature completely give him this confidence.
"Besides, it's too much to hold a film festival, and I'll have to wait until I'm a little more famous. Chu Shun thought about it, he grew up in the mountain city of Jiulongpo since he was a child, and his parents' house was also that place.
Make a "Jiulongpo International Film Festival", the trophy is called Chu Cup, does it feel that the name is a bit low, but so what, when he is famous enough, he can make him famous all over the world.
When Chu Shun turned around a thousand times in his mind, the phone rang, starting with 0081, it seemed to be the number of the island country, and he didn't know who it was.
"Congratulations to Director Chu. The other person spoke for the first time.
Chu Shun felt that the voice was a little familiar, but he really couldn't remember who it was, so he hummed very calmly.
"Director Chu, "Tokyo Godfather" has a bumper box office, and 600 million yen is the fifth opening result this year. Hengkou called Chu Shun.
Speaking of the box office, Chu Shun probably remembered that it was a crossmouth with a bit of foot smell.
It doesn't have to be Yokoguchi, it may also be Sakamoto's section chief, anyway, the two of them were labeled in Chu Shun's heart.
Then Hengkou talked about the island country's process of account sharing, probably when Chu Shun would be able to get the money.
"There is also the credit of Toho publicity. Chu Shun waited for the latter sentence, because it was impossible for a person in charge of Dongbao Cinema to call specifically to report at this time, and in that English that he was not proficient in, he said that there was a way to divide the account when he signed the contract before.
In fact, it's not that I'm not unskilled, it's just that the island countries speak English with a special accent.
"Director Chu's Asahi Shimbun wants to conduct an exclusive interview with you. Yokoguchi continued, adding: "We know that Director Chu has very little time, so the reporters and editors of the Asahi Shimbun will go to the capital for an exclusive interview." ”
"The Godfather of Tokyo" is a gift from Director Chu to Tokyo and to our country, and the people want to know what Director Chu thinks, but the critics have a lot of controversy about the animated film "The Godfather of Tokyo". Hengkou said: "Please take time out of your time." ”
Yokoguchi and Asahi Shimbun are quite familiar, so I will help Asahi Shimbun ask.
The three major newspapers and periodicals of the island nation: the Yomiuri Shimbun, the Mainichi Shimbun, and the Asahi Shimbun.
If it was the Yomiuri Shimbun, Chu Shun would not even think about refusing it, because the editor-in-chief of Yomiuri had a problem with his brain, but it was the Asahi Shimbun......
Chu Shun also asked first what the controversy was, as he had seen a big scene, Chu Shun never paid attention to the film after it was released, and at most he would follow up to see the praise of him on the Internet.
Yokoguchi elaborated on Kyodo's views and Sakamoto's film review, and although the two views are not completely opposed, there are debates on the Internet.
Think about it, do you think that you are a moving animation after watching "Tokyo Godfather", but some people say that the reunion in the back is amusing you, who wants this?
"Kyodo News ......" Chu Shun wanted to ask which person from Kyodo News wrote this report, and the angle was tricky, although it was not reasonable, but it was also able to justify itself.
"It's no wonder that Satoshi Kon's release of "Tokyo Godfather" was met with a certain amount of small resistance from Tokyo residents, and it turned out that this was the reason. Chu Shun pondered in his heart.
He knew that this was because the system instilled the filming theme of "Tokyo Godfather", and Satoshi Kon was also boycotted on a small scale, so he said the theme of his filming on the show.
Otherwise, as far as a well-known supervisor is concerned, the filming work can be interpreted in any way, and it will not be clear what he thinks.
"It's okay to share the original intention of shooting, but you don't have to bother, the Asahi Shimbun is also very tired from the island country, so let's interview directly by phone. Chu Shun felt that this was an opportunity to brush up on favorability, so it was acceptable.
Because of the deep meaning of Satoshi Kon's filming of this animated movie, people who haven't watched Satoshi Kon's interview really can't see it, anyway, Chu Shun didn't see it after filming himself.
The average movie fan saw that the first layer was a touching work, a few viewers saw that the second layer was a concern for people on the fringes of the city, and Kyodo saw the cruel status quo on the third floor, but in fact Kontoshi was on the fifth floor, and it was a thousand layers of cake.
Understanding the fifth layer, I know how much affection Satoshi has for the island country, on the earth, Satoshi Kon's love for the island country is patriotic, and this Yuan Earth Star is the elder brother's concern for the stinky younger brother.
"If you want to talk about a telephone interview......" Yokoguchi thought of another possibility: "Can you connect live on TV Asahi's talk show?" ”
TV Asahi and Asahi Shimbun are not the same company, but the name "Asahi" is particularly popular in the island nation, such as Asahi Beer, formerly Asahi cigarettes.
It's not the same company, but TV Asahi and Asahi Shimbun have collaborated on a "Practical Interview", an interview on a hot topic at the moment.
"You can too. Chu Shun nodded, it is better for the TV station to be directly connected, and more people can hear it.
"Thanks to Director Chu Shun's support, the planning bureau of the TV station will call later to discuss the specific details. Hengkou said: "I won't delay Director Chu Shun's time." After speaking, he took the initiative to hang up the phone.
About twenty minutes later, Kishimoto from the Asahi TV Planning Bureau called, and after some exchange, an appointment was made.
It's easy to disappear from heated discussions, so the "Real Interview" program will follow the facts, so the connection time is 7 p.m. the day after tomorrow and 8 p.m. Tokyo time.
I wanted to see the island country Twitter, Chu Shun sat on the bed, in fact, his Japanese was not good, to be precise, he just learned from the "teachers", and basic communication and understanding were not possible, so he turned it off after watching it for a while, and opened WeChat to prepare to find Wang Qian.
Wang Qian is the secretary of the Magic Capital Film Festival, if there is anything, look for her, and there is no direct communication between the organizing committee and the jury.
In fact, as long as you have organized a little film festival, you know that most of the staff of the film festival are volunteers, such as guest reception, subtitle control, forum liaison, venture capital liaison, and even media services are volunteers.
If you don't have any money to take full attendance, you will be given a volunteer ID at the end of the day.
But as soon as it was opened, there was a series of messages -
[Hello Director Chu, I am Dong Jianxiang, a member of the jury of the Magic City Film Festival. ]
[I am a member of the jury this time, hello Chairman.] ]
......
There were more than ten requests to add friends, Chu Shun thought about it, and still agreed, he would review the film together in three months, and he was also a big leader, plus it was easy to contact.
Among the new friends are directors, film critics and producers, each of whom praises each other for a long time, and so on, Chu Shun feels that the other party is really looking up for a long time, but he is very casual.
Because some people Chu Shun knows, such as Su Shiji, and some people don't know, Chu Shun only knows after a wave of searching.
Fortunately, they are all shaving rice in the entertainment industry, so there will be no news at all, otherwise it will be a bit embarrassing.
