Chapter 831 The host of the hanging
At the beginning of the show, the atmosphere was obviously relatively harmonious, everyone was considered acquaintances, and they knew about each other's topics, so it depended on the performance of the brother. Moreover, this kind of topic from a big name is a great test of the host's skills. Han Shanping, Zhang Yimou, Ye Ming, Zhang Ziyi, there are four people this time, and each of them is an outstanding top role in the industry. is such a lineup, and the average host really said that it was impossible to follow this show. But Zhu Jun is indeed experienced, and his aura is also able to control the situation.
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 officials, this is an unspoken rule.
Next is the director Zhang Yimou, the national teacher, this is also understandable, the director of the Olympic bid, the status can be imagined.
And then introduced Ye Ming, this is also understandable, in such a situation, Ye Ming's results are 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 that Zhang Ziyi's efforts, whether she is arrogant or indifferent, but her efforts are also the cornerstone of her step by step to today. The Berlin Film Festival is not something that an actor can win an award if he goes.
Of course, everyone knows that Zhang Ziyi can sit here, which is completely taking advantage of Zhang Yimou's light.
Who doesn't know that Lao Zhang is supporting Zhang Ziyi. And next, Zhu Jun actually said that he started from the movies of Han Shanping and Zhang Yimou when they were young, and then talked about the fifth generation of directors in China, when it comes to yellow earth, red sorghum, although Chen Kaige, this guy Ye Ming is also a little unhappy, whose work is the yellow earth. At least on the surface, it is Chen Kaige's, and this movie is also a precedent.
Of course, the classic 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 later topics. Sure enough, in the end, it was transferred to Ye Ming's crazy stone. At this time, we began to talk about the market economy.
The market economy of the film must be said. And it is precisely because of this that the Crazy Stone has a special place in the history of Chinese films.
This is a classic dark horse movie, black and shiny. Even if the history of Chinese movies is written in the future, it is impossible to bypass the crazy stone.
When Zhu Jun said this, he immediately cleverly put forward a core question today: "Director Zhang, as far as the box office is concerned, the movie Crazy Stone is very successful, which has been verified by the market." And [Jing Ke Assassinates King Qin] is really a little unsatisfactory at the box office, what do you think of these two movies. Where are their successes and failures in terms of a market economy?"
The central topic is actually the reform of the market economy, at this point, Zhu Jun said this point of view, but also a long sigh of relief, it is not easy, this kind of interview with the nature of the task is the most test of a host, can not be well controlled. That was a very fatal blow to this episode of the show.
Obviously, this time Zhu Jun mastered the heat quite well. By now, the things that should have been said have basically been broken.
The question is raised to see how Zhang Yimou copes with this problem, which directly begins to test Zhang Yimou's EQ and IQ.
If the question is not answered well, it will be very offensive. Even if it was Zhu Jun, he dared to mention this issue on the show after seeking Zhang Yimou's consent. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done that.
Directly offending Lao Zhang and Lao Chen, the two great directors Zhu Jun is not afraid, but the key is whether it is worth it to do it like this, if it is not worth it, then Zhu Jun will not do it.
But now, it seems, for the sake of the show's needs. This one is worth it. Now it depends on how Zhang Yimou takes it.
Zhang Yimou also has a headache, this kind of offending life is obviously not the style of Zhu Jun, a good old man, this girl is good at sensationalism, like the story in Qiong Yao's novel, if you die or don't cry a few times in your artistic life, it seems that something is missing, even if Uncle Benshan comes up, what a ridiculous person, but there is also an urge to wipe people's tears. This is Zhu Jun's ability.
offending people, Zhu Jun generally doesn't do this thing.
But this time there is no way, this time it is not an interview that Zhu Jun wants, but a leader wants it, and the leader must say this to Zhu Jun, by the way, when it comes to movies and market economy, and finally what market economy reform is, this is all agreed in advance. The leaders all spoke, and Zhu Jun naturally didn't dare not listen.
Zhang Yimou also only had a black face, and said stubbornly: "What about 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 to go from two aspects, one is the art department, that is to say, whether the movie has artistic value, such as Coppola's [Apocalypse Now] said that the box office must be wiped out by movies such as [Titanic] [Transformers] and "Harry Potter". Of course, the box office of this work is not as high as I mentioned earlier, but as far as literary films are concerned, it is also quite good.
But in terms of artistry, [Apocalypse Now] is definitely a monumental work. Housewarming, I'm not saying that your Harry Potter is too vegetable, but in terms of art, reflection on human nature, and so on, Harry Potter has indeed been thrown off a few streets. ”
Ye Ming has the copyright of Harry Potter, so at this time, Zhang Yimou said this to adjust the atmosphere.
Ye Ming waved his hand with a smile and said: "I have worked with director Coppola, and the director of Infernal Affairs is director Coppola, and this director is like a mountain to me, making me look up to the mountain." To say that his work is more artistic and more humane than Harry Potter.
I don't think anyone has any objection to that. Actually, Harry Potter is a children's literature, you don't expect a group of children to discuss war, human nature or something. At this time, the atmosphere on the scene began to be a little lively, and in such a situation, Zhang Ziyi seemed a little redundant.
The topic that these three people are talking about, that's just lofty, Coppola, well, haven't you heard of his name, you should have heard of the godfather?
Zhang Ziyi can't interject this thing, in such a situation, Zhang Ziyi can't talk about domestic movies, and abroad, she is really not qualified to interject.
Needless to say, Lao Zhang, her backer, Han Shanping, she dare not compare, Ye Ming, people do have cooperation with Coppola, and Infernal Affairs is also a classic Hong Kong city movie, these are all things that Zhang Ziyi can't refute.
Moreover, at this time, it seems that Zhu Jun also did not mean to ask Zhang Ziyi.
In fact, please invite Zhang Ziyi to come, that is, to see Zhang Yimou's face. At this time, Zhu Jun immediately pulled the topic back and said: "The common people don't care about this, what they watch is the box office, in fact, in the hearts of ordinary people, Harry Potter looks more cute, which is also an important reason why the box office of Harry Potter is very high." The market economy is an important sign to test a movie, at least the people vote with the box office, right?"
Zhang Yimou nodded and said, "That's right, that's the same thing." In such a situation, the second criterion for the success of the film we are talking about is the box office standard, which can be seen at a glance in the world movie box office rankings. I won't say much about the box office of the first Titanic, it's distressing to say too much, is this movie, how many years do we have to work hard in Huaxia, if it is converted into Huaxia coins, then this box office is enough for me to make a movie for ten years and eight years.
This is the most direct and simple way in Hollywood, the box office, whoever has a high box office will be able to have more funds, privileges, and even stars. ”
The market economy rules Hollywood, whether it's an independent producer, a big studio, or even a super-director Spielberg. You are a hero if you are high at the box office. Literary films, that is not something that anyone can shoot.
Zhu Jun immediately said: "Speaking of which, the films, stars, investment, and directors directed by Brother Chen Kai are all considered high-standard in China." The supporting roles are all Lao Zhao, and later when Lao Zhao came, he complained about Director Chen Kaige, and his scenes were all deleted in the end, but this time it was clean. Chen Kaige's film is a tall work no matter what hardware it looks at, but in the end it was ruthlessly destroyed by the market. This has to be said to be a pity. ”
Maybe Brother Chen Kai didn't come, no matter what it was, but you didn't come, I'm sorry, how can I be worthy of my saliva if I don't kill you. Therefore, in such a situation, Zhu Jun pulled Chen Kaige into the water as if he had opened a hanging.
At this time, Zhang Yimou could only continue: "This, Brother Kai's hardware is good, and his skills are also very good, but the screenwriter is too vegetable, this is a very hard injury." When I watched it at the end, I couldn't understand what he was trying to express in the movie. I can't even see it, but at a time like this, I think there will definitely be no shortage of viewers who can see it.
Therefore, if the box office is not ideal, it is also a reasonable thing. It's just that I didn't expect that the box office of the movie [Jing Ke Assassinating King Qin] was so bleak that people didn't want to say it. (To be continued......)
