The fourth grandfather was soon picked up, and Sister Yang Mingju followed her, and the little girl's eyes were as swollen as the light bulb.

After the fourth grandfather was settled, Zhou Fangyuan brought Yang Mingjue to his bedroom, poured a glass of water for Yang Mingjue, and then sat down beside him.

"Don't be too sad, it's just a cerebral infarction, take good care of the Russian, although it can't completely return to its original state, but it can also ensure a normal life in the future, and now the family is discussing the follow-up IPO arrangements for my fourth grandfather, so you can relax, it's okay." ”、

Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile.

As soon as he said this, Yang Mingjue finally relaxed a lot.

"Tell me about you, since the playground opened, you have been studying outside, how is it? How does it feel? No one bullied you in the future, how is the learning effect?"

Zhou Fangyuan asked a series of questions.

Yang Mingjue began to introduce him.

The filming and learning of movies is actually not difficult, the difficulty is that there is no one to guide her, fortunately, Yang Mingjue has always studied with Cameron, of course Cameron knows that this girl has a lot to do with Zhou Fangyuan, so in her spare time, she will use some rest time to teach her. Yang Mingjue is also serious in the industry, and she really uses every minute and every second, including eating and sleeping, and when the director goes to the toilet, the short time in front of the monitor is also used by her to improve herself as much as possible. For diligent and studious people, ordinary people will not refuse, Cameron is no exception, and later, he even really said that Yang Mingjue should be taught as his own disciple, from the occasional phone call Zhou Fangyuan can understand that what Yang Mingjue learned from Cameron is not in books, and Cameron has accumulated experience bit by bit over the past few decades.

Good guy, hearing this, Zhou Fangyuan himself was sour.

Cameron's half-life experience, he taught him everything, and if he said it, I don't know how many people would have to eat lemons.

Although you have to be a director, you have to have your own personality, and the style of the movies directed by different directors will be different. This difference is the relief of individuality. In fact, any director who has pursuits, theoretically speaking, should not be like Yang Mingjue, who completely accepts the teachings of others. Even the knowledge taught in the school is based on the foundation, helping students lay a good foundation, and everyone has their own different ideas about how to develop the superstructure.

However, this statement is only aimed at ordinary people. Like Cameron, including Spielberg and others, the world's top super directors, even if they really lose their personality because of learning from them, as long as they can learn it properly, it is completely worth it. In fact, if you take a closer look, you will know how many film directors there are in the world, how many can carry forward their own personality? How many can go to the top? The handful who really stand at the top, each of them is a great god, not to mention any personality or impersonality, if there is a chance, even if it is completely according to the mold of others to extend a successor, there will be countless people who will rush to it.

This is the face of the top directors.

However, what really makes Cameron happy is that Yang Mingjue fully absorbs the knowledge that Cameron taught her, and at the same time, she actually has her own ideas, she is not only learning, she is also growing, after winning Cameron's strengths, she is still making up for her own shortcomings in other aspects, which is the most valuable, which is why Cameron completely taught her in the later period.

Because Yang Mingjue has the potential to become a director who is not weaker than him. Of course, that's a matter for the future, but since there is such a talented disciple, what else does Cameron have to hide?

What? Worried about being robbed of your job?

Hehe, not to mention that Cameron's pride is not worried about this at all, even if Yang Mingjue has this ability, it is not certain whether he can snatch it away. Cameron, who is already a symbol, and his level of big director department have already had countless fans around the world. The most hardcore fans, that's absolute, fans who only recognize a certain director, incense let these crush to change preferences? That's simply impossible.

So Cameron didn't worry about that at all, so what was there to hesitate about?

Not only did Li teach him in daily movie shooting, but Cameron also gave Yang Mingjue homework.

"The teacher asked me to study the film history of Fusang and Nam Xian and their films, and he said that there is a Hollywood in the West today, but there is no rival in the East. But in the East, the cultural heritage is longer than that of the West, and the strength of the film is not really weak, but it is not concentrated and dispersed in the entire cultural circle, he asked me to study more films from other countries in other East Asian cultural circles, and strive to be able to integrate these inheritances to form the most distinctive characteristics of our Oriental films. ”

What a big breath!

What a distant ideal!

If Cameron had done it himself, it might have been possible. But Yang Mingjue and Zhou Fangyuan are honest, they don't think she can do it. It's not that you look down on anything, but the people who can do this kind of thing definitely have to be the kind of amazing talent. Is Yang Mingjue a genius of this level? I don't know. But since Cameron asked her to do something, it will definitely be good for her future development, even if it can't do what Cameron expects, but it will definitely improve her a lot.

So Zhou Fangyuan still expressed his support.

Of course, it is said that it is studied at the same time, but I have to admit that Fusang films, in the research direction of Yang Mingjue, are overwhelmed by Nanxian films. And this is not because of Yang Mingjue's own preferences, in fact, in the entire domestic film market, whether it is the box office or popularity, Nanxian movies are completely insufficient for Fusang films.

As a reborn, Zhou Fangyuan can say very responsibly that as far as the domestic film market is concerned, Fusang films will crush Nanxian films in the next ten years.

Of course, Fusang Film's "journey to conquer" in the domestic market was not all smooth sailing. During the period from 2006 to 2015, Fusang films will usher in a period of low ebb in China. During this 10-year period, only 17 Japanese films were released in Japan. In 2013 and 2014, none of the Fusang films were introduced to China.

Of these films, only five have exceeded 10 million at the box office. Among them, the best box office performance is "Doraemon: Walk with Me" released in 2015, which collected 530 million box office in the mainland in its previous life. It was the box office success of this movie that made the industry see the box office potential of Fuso films.

In the following 2016, Fusang films ushered in an unprecedented blowout period in my country. In this year alone, 11 films were released, more than the previous five years combined. Among them, "Your Name. ", "One Piece: Golden City", "Naruto Theatrical Version: Boruto", and "Doraemon: The Birth of New Nobita" all exceeded 100 million yuan at the box office. Your Name. won 576 million at the box office, breaking the box office record set by "Doraemon: Walk with Me".

In 17 years, the Japanese films introduced by domestic theaters still maintain a "blowout" trend. "100 Loves with You", "Late Night Canteen 2", "Gintama", "The Shape of Sound", "Sword Art Online: Sequence Battle" and so on are all box office hits.

It is worth mentioning that the Fusang movies that will be released in China in the next few years generally have a good reputation. Take 16 years as an example, among the 11 Fuso movies introduced, only the Douban score of "Dragon Ball Z: Resurrected Frieza" did not exceed the passing line, and the others were above the passing line. Your Name. ", "Bottom Spice Girl", and "Naruto: Boruto" are three movies, with ratings of more than 8 points. The four movies "Gintama", "The Shape of Sound", "Late Night Canteen 2", and "Sword Art Online: Sequence Battle" all have Douban scores of more than 7 points.

On the contrary, Nanxian films have almost collapsed in the Chinese market.

Due to well-known political reasons, for a long time to come, it will be difficult for audiences to see Nanxian movies on the big screen in our country. However, if you study it carefully, it is not difficult to find that even before some events, there were very few Nanxian movies introduced in China. Both are made in Nanxian, and the treatment of Nanxian movies and Korean dramas in my country's market can be said to be "ice and fire", and their influence is obviously not as good as the latter.

When it comes to Korean dramas that will appear in the next few years, even if you are not a drama fan, you must have heard of popular Korean dramas such as "My Love from the Star" and "Descendants of the Sun". But when it comes to Nanxian movies of the same period, the audience may not be so familiar. According to industry statistics, from 2004 to 2014, there were only about 20 Nanxian movies introduced by domestic theaters.

And until Zhou Fangyuan's rebirth, there were no works with a box office of more than 100 million in Nanxian movies introduced by China's theaters. In 2006, the box office champion of Nanxian "Monster of the Han River" was only 16 million at the mainland box office. In 2012, the disaster film "Invasion of the Wireworms", which defeated "Batman" in Nanxian and won the box office championship for many weeks, had a meagre 7.05 million at the mainland box office. In 2015, "Snowpiercer", which was praised and popular in Nanxian, landed in domestic theaters and only received more than 74 million box office.

In China's market, it is not only Nanxian's local films that have received a cold reception, but also the box office performance of Sino-Korean co-productions has not been satisfactory. Before the political relationship between China and South Korea fluctuated, Sino-Korean co-productions experienced a "honeymoon period". However, with the exception of 2015's "20 Years Old Again", which earned 366 million at the box office, the vast majority of Sino-Korean co-productions have suffered a double waterloo at the box office and word of mouth. Co-productions such as "Honeymoon Hotel Murder" and "Dream Partner" even have a Douban score of only 3-4 points. With the box office hitting the street in the past, and the policy restrictions in the back, Nanxian films seem to have entered a "dead end" in the Chinese market.

According to the statistics and forecasts of the Nanxian Film Promotion Committee, the number of Nanxian films released in China from 2016 to 2017 may even be zero.

So, why are Nanxian movies so vulnerable? Political reasons aside, many excellent works have also emerged in Nanxian films, such as "The Melting Pot", "Su Won", "Train to Busan", "The Cry", and other films have aroused great repercussions on the Internet. This shows that domestic audiences are not prejudiced against Nanxian films. So, why are Fusang films applauded and popular in the domestic market, but Nanxian films have always been "unpopular" in the domestic market?

Roughly speaking, there are three main reasons -

First of all, Fuso films have a wider audience base in China. The Fusang films introduced by domestic theaters are mainly animated films and manga live-action films. This kind of movie has a wide audience base in my country, such as "Doraemon", "Detective Conan", "Naruto" and other anime works, all of which are childhood memories that accompany the growth of Chinese audiences. The theatrical or live-action versions of these well-known IPs can easily resonate widely with the audience. ]

In contrast, Nanxian films do not have a wide audience base in China. In the past two years, most of the film genres that have become popular in China are comedies, action movies and fantasy films. Nanxian films are good at crime, suspense, thriller and other genre films, with relatively serious themes and delicate styles, most of which involve heavy social topics, which do not meet the entertainment demands of most Chinese audiences.

Second, the subject matter of Nanxian films is more likely to touch the red line of censorship.

As mentioned above, Nanxian films are good at exposing the dark side of society and torturing human nature. For example, "The Melting Pot", "Su Yuan", and "The Defender", which are popular on the Internet, are all movies with realistic themes, and the insinuations on sensitive issues such as criticism of real society and accusations of government incompetence in the films are often direct and "bloody". Such a theme is generally difficult to release in China. Even if it is released, in the absence of a film classification system, Nanxian movies may also face the dilemma of deleting the plot or even modifying the ending. In comparison, the Fuso films introduced to China are much more "mild". These films are either animated films, live-action comics, or youth romances, and most of them belong to the "family" genre, which is difficult to reach the forbidden area of censorship.

It is understood that the so-called overseas imported films released in mainland theaters are divided into two kinds - account-sharing films and batch films, with an annual introduction quota of about 34 and 30 respectively. These spots are generally occupied by Hollywood blockbusters with significant box office appeal. In the eyes of the introducer, Fusang Films and Nanxian Films are both "niche films", and the amount that can be allocated is very limited. Compared with Fusang films, the box office appeal of Nanxian movies is also obviously at a disadvantage. Due to the lack of fan base and the style of the film does not meet the aesthetics of most audiences, there is no precedent for Nanxian films to be box office hits in the Chinese market. The performance of Fusang movies is getting stronger and stronger, since "Walk with Me" won 500 million box office, more and more Fuso movies have won more than 100 million box office, and "Your Name" has also appeared. is such a hit with word-of-mouth and box office returns.

It can be said that even if there are no policy restrictions, it is difficult for importers to have the confidence to introduce a large number of Nanxian films. After all, judging from the past box office performance, the box office of Fusang movies is "stable", while the box office appeal of Nanxian movies is obviously insufficient.

In this case, if Yang Mingjue wants to study the films of the two countries, he naturally starts with Fusang.

And Fuso does have a large number of well-known directors in China, Miyazaki Hayao, Kitano Takeshi, Kurosawa Akira, etc., all of which can be regarded as internationally renowned directors, and Yang Mingjue's research route started from these people.
