Chapter 256: Tie!
The Oscars themselves have attracted a lot of attention, coupled with the sensational nine times on stage, it can be described as Chu Shun's battle for the gods in Hollywood, which has been widely reported around the world, and it is more discussed than winning the highest awards at the three major film festivals, not to mention that other island countries and Italy are like festivals.
Let's talk about the island country first, the Six Grid Progress Association held a celebration, the Oscars ceremony was from five to eight o'clock, and then the Oscar dinner was at half past eight, and the banquet was eaten until half past eleven.
In fact, there is really nothing at the dinner party, it is all about meeting the big guy or talking about friendship, if you really want to fill your stomach and dream!
Having said that, even if there is a lot of food, the actress in the evening dress does not dare to eat it, and the close-fitting design of the evening dress really can't cover a little belly.
Back to the topic, the fourteen-hour time difference between the island nation and the United States, at the end of the award ceremony at 8 o'clock New York time, the island country was just around 10 o'clock in the morning, and the head of the Sakamoto Division immediately finished the work at hand and gathered all the members of the progressive association.
Don't underestimate the Liuge Progress Association, there are more than 50 members, of which more than 10 are directors, more than 20 are actors, the number of actresses is extraordinarily large, and the rest are writers and journalists, and the members are still more professional and multi-career.
Many people say that island people worship the strong, and that's right, but the island country in the new era and South Korea's sister paper are the most real Yan dog, and there are many actresses in the Liuge Progress Club, and a big factor is that Chu Shun looks pretty good, and he looks like Chu's father.
Celebration is actually to find an opportunity for everyone to get together, anyway, the celebration of the progress association is held in Qingfang, the Qingfang owner is a one-eyed monk monster in the mythology of the ghosts of the island country, and at this moment it is a famous kaiseki restaurant in the Sholang District? Is the restaurant a former temple? After being bought by a restaurant group, the cemetery in the temple was not moved? Still in the courtyard.
Eating Japanese food? Watching the cemetery, what an appetite......
As for why there are so many cemeteries in the temple? Isn't this a basic operation in an island country?
The members of the Liuge Progress Association ate and drank at noon, and it had nothing to do with Chu Shun? Hmm - can't it be said that it doesn't matter at all? At least when he pushed the cup and changed the lamp, what he said in his mouth was "Congratulations to Chu Sang on his fame in Hollywood", "Chu Sang has won nine awards, and we will also drink nine cups, full of top".
It wasn't until the end of the meal that everyone began to discuss "Titanic" and Chu Shun.
"In the aesthetics of cinema? Is the charm of nature also carved? The stunning shot of Ruth and Jack at the bow of the boat takes time to cooperate, and if there is no charming sunset, the beauty will be reduced by a few points. ”
The speaker is a director in his forties named Imamura Ao? Is he an academic director who graduated from the Island Country Film University? This is the only pure film art school in the island country, and many wonderful films have been made after graduation.
Imamura loves "Sweet Honey" very much? Especially the wonderful storyboard arrangement, Imamura Nan has proposed to his alma mater many times? Invite Chu Shun to give a lecture at the University of Filming? At the invitation of Section Chief Sakamoto? To be a member of the Chuchui Island National Squad, no, it is a member of the Progressive Association.
The president of the University of Cinematography is also very helpless, don't you know that the old saying goes, "Love is not something you want to sell, you can sell if you want to buy", Chu Shun is not something you want to invite, you can come if you want to invite, and he has sent invitations many times, but there has been no news so far.
"Mr. Imamura, what you should say is luck, Chu Sang is talented and has execution, so even Shinto will bless him. "Then he was a best-selling author, who wrote declension reasoning, and did not look like a writer at all, with dyed yellow hair and a fierce look between his eyebrows, but like a gangster.
I know this writer, and I can't say it's like it, because he used to be the little leader of the Lingxian group, which is a bit similar to the martial arts master Gu Long on the earth, the latter is because of the experience of the rivers and lakes, which makes his martial arts world full of chic, and the former's gangster experience makes the perverted killers he writes, as well as marginal characters, and mental illness have a hysteria.
"It's no coincidence. Imamura shook his head and said: "I also thought it was the blessing of Shinto at first, until I saw what Rhea said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that in order to wait for the most beautiful sunset, this shot has been delayed since it was turned on, and it took four months to wait for a sunset that satisfied Chu Sang. ”
Imamura didn't actually say anything, even if the actors played well, several expressions of Valentina and Rhea were reshot later and added through editing.
The Shinto in the mouths of the two is not the same thing as the Shinto in film and television dramas and works, the Shinto of the island country refers to Shintoism, and the mountain spirits and monsters and tree spirits are all gods, so Shinto is referred to as "nature" or "God" in the literature of the island country.
"This is the spirit of craftsmanship!" the yellow-haired writer sighed.
"The Godfather of Tokyo" can see that Chu Sang is beyond the norm in guiding the works, and you have not discussed the key points. As soon as Kurabo Konosuke opened his mouth, he denied all the previous discussions, and it was no coincidence that he had no friends.
He said: "What shocked me the most was Chu Sang's use of basic front and back shots, and it was not easy to use simple lens skills at all.
The front and back shots are simply told that when the two actors are facing each other, they cross the actor with their backs to the camera, shoot the front of the speaker, and generally use "over the shoulder" as the benchmark, switching back and forth, as Kurabo Konosuke said, it is a very common technique, and it is often used in film and television dramas and even anime.
"The key is that Chu Sang's skills are still very ordinary, using positive and negative shots to express social class. Kurabo Konosuke said: "When the perspective passes through Ruth, the focused Jack is a third-class person behind him, the camera hits Ruth as the front, and the background crowd becomes a first-class person, before the cruise ship touches the iceberg, it is the same." ”
The more Konosuke Kurabo spoke, the more excited he became, and perhaps because of the strength of the wine, he got up directly: "After the starboard side of the cruise ship was damaged and the disaster came, the background of the front and back shots of Jack and Ruth became blurred, or it was the same, I think Chu San wanted to express that only when the danger of nature comes, will everyone be equal in the true sense, and the sea will not be merciful because you have money." ”
Seeing that he said so much, many reporters, writers, actors, and not members of the directing industry also asked those who knew about it, but when they knew about it, they didn't get the point, and they couldn't understand why Konosuke Kurabao was so excited.
Each person is exposed to different things, so what you pay attention to when watching a movie is completely different, and Konosuke Kurah, as an animation director, attaches great importance to storyboards, so he pays attention to the shots.
The yellow-haired writer paid attention to the curve of Ruth and Jack's relationship changes, and the actors present paid more attention to the acting skills shown by Valentina and Rhea.
"My acting skills ...... Eh, I really want to be trained by Chu Sang. "The slender and tall actor Dao, who debuted as an idol and transformed into an actor, has always been criticized for his acting skills.
Another actor answered: "Chusang made one film in France, two films in Italy, and directed an animated film in our island country, but I think Chusan has been to the island country about the same number of times as he has been to Italy......
The reason why the Qingfang owner was chosen to celebrate is because the second floor of the Qingfang owner can be contracted separately, and dozens of people present can accommodate it, and then they form groups of three or five, saying their own, and the scene is also relatively messy.
"Can our country make a movie like Titanic?" "Section Chief Sakamoto, as the president, listened to everyone's speeches and suddenly asked.
The noisy scene seemed to be muted instantly, and there were members who were sitting far away talking to themselves, but suddenly felt that there was silence around them, and they decided not to speak.
Section Chief Sakamoto can be said to be a cold field expert, and he added: "Brainstorming, I also want to know the ability of our island country to make movies." ”
Speaking of the animation ability of the island country, it is definitely the top in the world, but live-action movies, as I said earlier, did not have masters such as Hirokazu Kore-eda to take over the baton, it was very crotch-pulling, not to mention Titanic, a movie that swept the Oscars, and there are very few films nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.
As the most famous director present, Imamura said: "Our movies are better at fine shooting, Titanic is all big scheduling, and in the end, it is big scheduling, and group portrait shaping, it's too difficult." ”
"Big scenes, big scheduling, don't we have such a movie in the island country? Isn't "Resurrection Day"?!" As the editor-in-chief of the Shunbao newspaper, Sakamoto is indeed very familiar with the films of the island country, so he casually said one.
The Day of Resurrection is the work of Shinji Fukasaku, a rare large-scale investment and big-scene movie in the island country, to be precise, Shinji Fukasaku is the first commercial film director in the island country, and he also filmed "Battle Royale" at the age of sixty or seventy, of course, there is no battle royale series in Yuandixing, and there are other commercial film works.
"The day of resurrection is indeed ......" Imamura said: "But the investment in the Titanic is an investment of more than 40 billion yen, and I think that at present, no director in China can leverage the entire capital." ”
The Titanic's 400 million US dollars is known as the largest investment movie in film history, which everyone has known for a long time, but converting US dollars into Japanese dollars, the amount of more than 40 billion Japanese dollars still makes everyone present tremble.
Section Chief Sakamoto opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Ming Huang Huang had 40 billion in front of him, and he couldn't say anything.
Last year, Toho Pictures, the largest film company in the island country, invested in the production of a total of 31 films, seven of which were animated films, and the remaining 20 or so live-action films, the total expenditure was less than 10 billion yen, and the Titanic was really exaggerated.
"Has 'Six Grids' been written?" Sakamoto knew that he had been sloppy about the topic he had just made, so he quickly changed the subject.
This is an inquiry to the yellow-haired writer, who is very inspired after reading "Six Grids" and is ready to rewrite a reasoning, especially the picture taken from the perspective of a "dog".
He is going to start with a case from the perspective of a dog, the "dog murder case" in the dog pack, but describe everything as human, and then reverse it at the end.
"I've finished writing three volumes, and I'm almost done. The yellow-haired writer said.
"That's right, this time Chu Sang invited to Huaxia, you can show Chu Sang. Sakamoto said.
This kind of adaptation and the name is the same, it is considered a homo chronicle, it must be agreed by the parties, when Ruan Qi brought the yellow-haired writer to Chu Shun to explain his intentions, the latter was confused, a director himself didn't understand what to shoot in a movie, what can be adapted?
The six-grid progress club took the second floor of the Qingfang owner for a whole day, and continued to be hi in the evening.
The news of the island country must also be reported, the sub-edition of the "Asahi Shimbun": "Director Chu Shun conquered the Hollywood Highland Center nine times and became the king of the Highlands!"
Seriously, it's also a shame that Chu Shun doesn't have the habit of reading foreign newspapers, otherwise I don't know how to complain about this report, what the hell is the king of the highlands, and the security guards of the highlands, the Asahi Shimbun is not bad, and the "Tokyo Times" is the second, so I won't write it because the report is too shameful.
After talking about the island country, let's talk about Italy roughly, as Chu Shun's eternal lover, many Sicilians spontaneously opened champagne at home to celebrate, which is not to say, Chu Shun's two movies, including the Titanic, chose Sicily, as for other Italians, they also posted congratulations on Twitter.
[Congratulations to director Chu Shun for his big victory at the Oscars, I said that director Chu Shun's filming of the theme of the Italian background, or the theme of the American and British background, has achieved extremely high achievements, while the theme of France and the island country has made director Chu Shun fail, I think the island country and France should reflect and reflect, especially the latter, the animated film will not be said, after all, it is director Chu Shun who crosses the border. ]
This tweet, the likes are the highest, Italy and France are really endless, seize the opportunity to say a few words, the difference is that this time the island country is also involved, the two countries have also formed an alliance, it is really a young man who does not talk about martial arts. Although there are not many people in Italy, there are many people in the island country, and many people in the island country are uncomfortable.
"Director Chu Shun is the foreigner who knows the island country best after Professor Ruben Benedict, "Tokyo Godfather" is limited by the subject matter, but the artistic value is definitely not lower than "Paradise Cinema". ”
"If "Tokyo Godfather" is made into a live-action movie, according to director Chu Shun's directing ability, it will definitely be the highest award level of the three major film festivals"
Island people do know how to pull, although there is no distinction between high and low artworks, but Tokyo Godfather and Paradise Cinema are really not a grade, Tokyo Godfather's core live-action version may really be the highest award level of the three major film festivals, but Paradise Cinema is a movie that exceeds this level, no matter what movie list, as long as it involves the words "artistic", "classic", and "moving", this movie will appear.
["I am the king of the world", director Chu Shun has changed from the king of Sicily, to the king of Italy, and now the king of the world, we Italy have witnessed the growth of director Chu Shun step by step. ]
There are a lot of likes for this article, but there must be people who oppose it, the king of Sicily said that the king of Italy is too exaggerated. Having said that, there are many people who agree with the message, and after witnessing Chu Shun's growth, I really don't know how their honey pride came from.
French Twitter is also quite lively, but no one pays attention to what France says, so it is omitted.
On the contrary, the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, etc., have also been reported by mainstream media.
One of the most noteworthy is the British media.
The British "London Daily" reported: "Titanic" restores the pinnacle of the industrial revolution of the empire on which the sun never sets, some people adhere to chivalry in the face of death, and some people do everything for death, this is the choice of human nature in the face of death, director Chu Shun presented us with a good show, welcome director Chu Shun to come to London to collect style, Britain has Shakespeare, there is Byron. ”
Think about the excitement of the debate between the two countries before, how the UK said, "We have more good directors, and more directors with high artistic achievements, and we will never grab an oriental director." ”
After the Titanic, the British media felt that Chu Sang was really awesome, in fact, when "Titanic" began to be released in the UK, many unknown sailors criticized this movie for tampering with history, because compared to the original version of the earth, all the crew members were basically shown to be more dutiful, and Chu Shun filmed it, and he believed in Professor Zhou Huzhi's information more.
However, the voyage of the big ship is irresistible, and the publicity of Disney's global control review is not in vain, and the box office is still a big hit, and the British audience is particularly fond of Wallace Hartley, and when the ship is about to be silent, the orchestra leader who still plays on the deck to appease the passengers, and the other seven members, many British audiences said that they really restore the quality of British gentlemen.
In all seriousness, Britain has been arrogant, but its current international status is completely incomparable with its former hegemonic status, so we can only remember what was left behind, such as "gentlemanly demeanor".
Chu Sang also stayed in Los Angeles for a week, so after the Oscar dinner, he turned down all invitations to an interview and returned to Huaxia.
Netizens in Huaxia are even more concerned about Chu Shun's record.
Then you are awesome: "The second in the box office in the world can still win awards, originally I thought that "The Matrix" was the limit of the Liver Emperor, but Nima directly crossed the catastrophe, no, really not. ”
Blinded by the afterlife: "From now on, you will live with the name I gave you, go! Chu Jiutai!"
Yunlan Gumo: "Good guy, I'm a good guy directly, the nine little golden men have their hands full, and let others help hold them, do you see Rhea's envious eyes?
Quarkchi: "You know, the beast is a very low-key person, so low-key that the whole world knows that he is low-key, and the host has nothing to do with him with the microphone? ”
I am Jiaojiao and Yuanyuan: "Originally, I thought that it would be very good for Emperor Liver to win the best director, and he was also the first Chinese best director, but ...... The Liver Emperor asked you to load the fork, but he didn't let you finish it all alone. ”
Chu Shun looked at the messages of netizens who spoke well on the Internet, and when he saw the message of "blinding the eyes of the afterlife", he shook his head with disdain, he was really a scum in the name world, how ugly Chu Jiutai was, people who didn't know thought that he had come out nine times in one night, which was too uncivilized.
However, Chu Shun can understand, after all, taking a nickname has been a certain skill since ancient times, it seems that in ancient times, ordinary people were called Zhang San, Li Si, Zhu Wuliu, if it was him, he would definitely take "Chu Jiu times".
Nine times on stage, or Chu Jiushang.
High-end atmosphere on the grade, please put the cultural people in this chapter.
The small-eyed fat monkey "Zhen Nima's blood is boiling, I am the king of the world, after listening to Director Chu Shun's last sentence, I jumped up and gave my family a kick." ”
"What are you, I jumped up and pressed the oxen in the field to the ground, and then ploughed two acres of land!"
"Seriously, after a Chinese won nine little golden figures at the Oscars [I am the king of the world], I didn't dare to act like this in the TV series, and immediately looked for my wife eleven times a night after watching it!"
"You guys are a fart, I was originally drowsy, but after reading it, I got up and brushed more than a dozen math papers!"
"Damn, it's a wolf upstairs. ”
Xi ψ: "I finally know how Director Zibo lost, he was called the king of the box office before, and the Liver Emperor is the king of the world, which is a generation!"
......
On the Internet, Chu Shun's fame is already very high, so it is too normal for heated discussions, to be precise, as soon as he makes any moves, he will parachute into the hot search. It's not that Chu Sang is the chosen son, well-no, Chu Sang is indeed the chosen son, there is a system wife who can wave as much as he wants, mainly Chu Sang's troubles, one is bigger than the other, if other directors have the ability to make trouble, they can do the same.
One of the most authoritative journals in China, "Film Art" published an article: "The Three Mountains of Chinese Directors".
As mentioned before, there are four major film journals in Huaxia, including the Beijing Film Academy Newspaper, and "Film Art" is the most authoritative, founded by the Federation of Literary and Art Circles and the Film Association, and this article was written by the editor-in-chief Tan Meng.
[Gao Yu and Lu Guozhu have always been the two directors of Gao Yu and Lu Guozhu, are synonymous with the quality of the word "director" in China, their film concepts, forms, styles, types, and performances are unique, countless filmmakers have studied and studied, "Earth", "Returning to the People", "Dreamless Night" and other films, have been included in the textbooks of Chinese opera, Beijing Film, and Shangju, once Beiying professor Yang Wei once said that "the success of Gao Lu's two directors has its own accumulation, as well as the driving force of the times, so it is difficult to have a comparable director in 30 years." ”
Professor Yang Wei's views have been cited in many papers, and most people agree with them, until 2018, when a first-year student of Beijing Film Film filmed "Six Grids". This film has become the weirdest dark horse in the art market, with storytelling and audio-visual shaping, cinematography focusing on intention, sound stripping away from immersion and distance, leaving only spatial coordinates, and unique editing is a model of anti-tradition.
Immediately following "Let the Bullets Fly", "Sweet Honey", and "Deadly ID", Chu Shun kept refreshing the upper limit, storyboarding, photography, screenwriting, editing, art direction, he created a novel shooting technique "stacking block" shooting (1), the absolute control is the erratic shooting style, "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", "Untouchable", "The Matrix" Each film has a different shooting style, and it can even be said that it is specially created for the story of the movie (2), the story is the core of everything in Chu Shun's movies!
"Cinema Paradiso" and "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" are filmed in the same way, which is also a testament to the shapeability and incredible stability of the film style.
The principal of Chinese opera once said, "If Chu Shun does not shoot feature films and art films, he will become a big commercial director" (3), Chu Shun is not comparable to Gao Lu, he is extremely sensitive to business, "The Matrix" maintained a very high level of thinking, and also won a very high box office.
After seven years of filming, he filmed the eleventh work "Titanic", which won a big victory at the 98th Academy Awards, becoming the first Chinese in history to win the best picture and best director's work, and the only Asian in history to win this award.
He walked to the side of Lu Guozhu and Gao Xu, the two directors!
