8273. Scope of ambition

If you want to intervene in the second rise of the girl group and get a piece of the pie, then you must have a certain understanding of the entertainment industry ecology of Nanxian.

The ecology of the entertainment industry in Nanxian is different from that of other countries, well, it may be similar to that of Fusang.

The first to stand at the top of the pyramid of the entertainment industry in Nanxian is naturally the national representative trend of Nanxian: Hallyu star. This kind of Nanxian Hallyu star is very famous in Asia, China is an example, Hallyu star has been popular in China for a period of time, the original time and space of the "Descendants of the Sun" is not popular all over the country, and before Zhou Fangyuan was reborn, there are still many girls who like to watch Nanxian's TV series, it can be said that Nanxian's national culture has invaded China through TV dramas, and has become a long-lasting cultural contest!

Of course, who exactly is encroaching on whom is another story.

The second layer should be the movie actors. There is also a strict hierarchy in the film class of Nanxian: only a few actors can go to the road of Zhongwu! And these actors who can go on the road of Zhongwu can be regarded as the top-level film actors of Nanxian. For example, Xue Jingqiu, Song Kanghao, and Lee Byung-hun may not be familiar with these names, but in general big-budget movies, they are the backbone. Nan Xian's real acting skills are good, and those with high domestic status are inside. And Kim so-hyun is the next generation of Chungmuro actors who are favored by the industry.

I would like to mention Chungmuro Road here: Chungmuro Road is a street located in the middle of Namxian Seoul, starting from Jeokgo-ro in Jongno-gu in the north to Toegye-ro in Jung-gu and near Myeongdong shopping district in the south. Named after the famous 16th-century anti-Japanese general General Yi Sun-sin, it is the most famous pet street and movie street in Seoul, especially the latter. In addition, the landmark Sejong Hotel in Seoul and the Korean Theater are also located in Chungmuro. There are a large number of filming locations and many directors, and it is known as the "Hollywood" of Namxian, so it has become synonymous with the film industry of Namxian, and the annual "Chungmuro International Film Festival" is named after it.

And when it comes to Zhongwu Road, I have to talk about Nanxian's movies again.

Since the release of the first Nanxian film in 1919, Nanxian film has undergone a long development. Not to mention that the Nanxian nation is a nation full of disasters and difficulties, in the last century, war and aggression have always hindered the development of Nanxian films. But it is precisely such a tortuous history that makes Nanxian films form their own characteristics in the cracks. In the 70s of the 20th century, the Nanxian film "Life and Death" opened the prelude to the revitalization of Nanxian films, and since then, Nanxian films have gradually become prosperous.

Of course, the success of the movie is not so simple.

The first is that the government has liberalized its policy on films, so that directors have room to create, so that good themes can be born. The Nanxian government also guaranteed that Nanxian films had 146 days of absolute screening time, and the screening time was the premise guarantee of the box office, which undoubtedly gave Nanxian films a stage for survival. Under the conditions of abundance, Nanxian filmmakers have made bold changes and experiments in the style of their films, not only copying, but innovating. The unique historical events of Nanxian are also the space and reference for filmmakers' creation. Under the cultivation of many favorable factors, Nanxian Film has achieved today's success step by step.

An innovation in the story mode, "The Memory of the Murderer" is one of Nanxian's more famous suspense films, in which the director uses a non-linear narrative method to tell the story, the male protagonist is a middle-aged man with Alzheimer's disease, and in his early years he was a serial murderer. When there is a serial murder case seventeen years later, the male protagonist thinks he is the murderer because of his forgetfulness and time and space confusion. This narrative technique is similar to "Fragments of Memory" and "Unknown Death", and it has its own unique style. Not only is it interspersed with past and present events, but it also has the overlapping influence of illusion and reality. So that the audience can't find a clue in the virtual reality.

The unknown attracts the audience's attention more, and this is also the success of this film. It is also a major innovation highlight to show the results of his imagination many times and show the psychological activities of the protagonist. Nanxian's suspense films have had their own unique pattern in the development of many years, but this film jumps out of the inherent mode and shows the audience the whole process of the story from the perspective of a murderer with Alzheimer's disease, which is a big step forward for Nanxian suspense films. At the end of the film, the protagonist looks at the camera, more as if he is examining himself and the audience. The popularity of Nanxian movies in China in recent years also shows that they have a certain ability and bright spots.

And then let's take the example of historical events.

The genre of Nanxian cinema has always been unique in Asia. Most of the Nanxian genre movies are based on real events. "Gunkanjima" is based on real historical events, the story is set during World War II, in reality, whether Warship Island exists or not, and what is the internal situation has always been a topic of debate. The release of this movie allowed the audience to see that period of history and the miserable life of the people on Gunkanjima.

Although the theme of the film is very bold, I have to admit that it is adapted from real events, which is the key to moving people, and the roughness and cruelty in the film are always torturing and reflecting on the audience.

"Itaewon Murder Incident" is adapted from the real events of Nam Xian, telling the story of the murderer who was acquitted at that time, and the corruption within Nam Xian and the higher treatment of foreigners in Nam Xian, which triggered many large-scale demonstrations and protests in the society at that time. A large number of Nanxian films, including "The King", "Retrial", and "General Kim Chang-so", are all based on events that can cause controversy, and have been adapted into suspense films or other types of movies by Nanxian filmmakers. For a long time, genre films have produced templates in Nanxian and have become their film characteristics.

One of the reasons why many people don't like Nanxian movies is also their lack of originality, and many times they are "borrowing". But Nanxian movies can always be "borrowed" just right. This "borrowing" is digested and absorbed by oneself and becomes one's own local thing. The history of Nanxian provides filmmakers with unique historical themes.

One of the reasons why the role of Nanxian films in the world is not as good as that of its local propaganda and development is that its Nanxian films are too nationalized. It may be that in Asia, Nanxian films have a certain influence, but in the eyes of Hollywood and Europe, the burden of Nanxian films is not something they can understand. At a deeper level, there is a deviation in ideology and ideology. When "Improper Deal" was released in foreign theaters, it sold very little, and most of the people who came to see it were Nanxian people studying abroad.

The unique concept of Nanxian filmmakers who blend local traditional culture with the modern urban context mostly resonates with Asians, but when they go out of Asia, they encounter Waterloo. It's not a failure, it's a mediocre response. Nanxian films have made little contribution to the development of world cinema with the West as the mainstream. Compared with the influence of Italian neorealism, the montage school in Soviet Russia, and the New Wave Left Bank School on the development of world cinema, Nanxian film lacks the film movement and film aesthetic trend that continue to have an impact on the world. To a certain extent, this shows that the economic, political and cultural strength on which Nanxian is based still does not exist as a dominant force in the world, and the ideas reflected are not acceptable to the mainstream society in Europe and the United States.

However, Nanxian films also have places that can be used as a reference for the development of world films.

The innate sense of joy of the people of Namxian makes the comedy in Korean films indispensable, revealing the ridicule of life in ordinary life trivialities, such as the family problems of the protagonist in "Haeundae", some life problems are infinitely magnified in the movie, and the comedic effect is made in the end. The truth of the story is mostly adapted from historical events, so that the most simple emotional needs of the nation are shown in the little people. If there are nonsensical movies in Huaxia, then Nanxian is a silent mockery of life. One of the major features of Nanxian movies is the ridicule and protest against the government, and the large-scale protest against the Nanxian government in "Horror Live" has not only aroused heated discussions and repercussions in Nanxian itself, but also in the world.

In short, although Nanxian filmmakers are evaluated in the international arena, they have a very high status in China, and they are also in a relatively high position in the pyramid of the contempt chain in the entertainment industry.

And the third layer is the TV drama actors. There will be a lot of Hallyu stars in this, but in fact, most of the Hallyu stars are selling vases and shapes. However, now the Korean Wave is not as good as before, it used to be a batch of batches, and now it would be good to be able to take the first few. Except for the Hallyu star, other people who are familiar with each other and occasionally become smash hits have a certain status and influence in China. Of course, there are also many perennial supporting roles.

But the status of TV dramas is not bad in Nanxian.

Nanxian TV series was born in the 60s of the last century.

In 1945, Nam Xian became independent from Fuso colonial rule, and after the end of the Korean War in 1953, Nam Xian entered a period of relatively stable development. In this environment, Nanxian established several radio and television stations in the 60s and began to produce and broadcast romance films. On January 19, 1962, Namxian's first TV drama, KBS TV's "I Want to Be a Man Too" was broadcast, followed by the first Japanese drama "Snow Falling Snowing", the first historical drama "Child Daughter-in-law" and the first family drama "Stepmother" were also broadcast one after another. In 1987, MBC TV produced and broadcast the TV series "Firebird", marking the birth of the miniseries genre.

In the 90s, the development of political democratization in Nanxian had a great impact on the production environment of Nanxian TV institutions and TV dramas, and the production methods of TV dramas were more dependent on the market, and the content and themes of TV dramas also had breakthrough development. In 1990, the Namxian government amended the Television Law, downsized the size of KBS, and adopted a policy of encouraging private television stations and cable television stations. At the end of 1990, the private SBS TV station was established, and the production of TV dramas became more social and competitive. In 1992, MBC's "Jealousy" opened the curtain on a new genre of Korean dramas - youth idol dramas, and subsequent TV series such as "Spark of Love", "Doctor Brothers" and "Star Dream" continued this style and won the favor of many young audiences. During the same period, sitcoms have gradually become one of the most popular TV drama genres among audiences, and at the same time, family dramas are still popular, with dramas such as "The Men of the Bathhouse Owner's Family", "What is Love", and "Watch and Watch" all set very high ratings.

In fact, the prosperity of idol dramas and family dramas at that time also contributed to the "Korean Wave" situation that gradually formed in the late 90s.

The entry of Nanxian TV series into China began in 1993, the second year of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and South Korea, but it did not cause great repercussions at that time. It wasn't until 1997 that Yang Ma rebroadcast the Nanxian family drama "What is Love" and caused a sensational effect, which drove the Nanxian entertainment culture to pour into my country and took this opportunity to gradually form the Korean Wave. During the same period, Nanxian TV dramas were introduced and broadcast in batches by neighboring countries, and triggered a ratings boom in many regions, and the main audience was young people.

In the 21st century, with "Blue Life and Death Love", "Winter Love Song", "Da Chang Jin", "Full House of Romance", "I'm Sorry, I Love You", "Haojie Chunxiang", "My Name is Jin Sanshun", "My Girl", "It Turns Out to Be a Beautiful Man", "The Inheritors", "You from the Stars", "Descendants of the Sun", "Lonely and Brilliant God-Ghost" and other dramas have been broadcast in various places, Nanxian TV dramas have not only been limited to the local area, but have become a popular cultural force in Asian countries. In 2002 alone, there were as many as 67 Korean dramas introduced and broadcast in China. With this wave, the entertainment and cultural industry of Nanxian represented by Nanxian TV dramas has developed rapidly with the active support of the government, and the industrial chain has become increasingly rich, gradually becoming one of the important industries supporting the economy of Nanxian.

It's Hallyu here.

Compared with other levels, the status of TV drama actors is naturally quite transcendent.

The fourth layer, the top singer. Generally, singers who can reach this level, especially SOLO, have been working for a long time. There is status, and there are resources.

The fifth layer is probably those idol singers. In Nanxian, the status of idol singers is generally low. Because Nanxian is famous for liking the new and hating the old, idol groups emerge in an endless stream, except for the three major entertainment companies in Nanxian, which can be popular for 7-8 years at most. Nanxian people generally believe that being an idol is a very simple thing and it is relatively easy to get started. To be an actor must be professionally trained, and the requirements for Yan are very high. Among the idol singers, there are also top-level idol groups that have reached the top, at least in terms of advertising value, they are on the same level as the actors of TV dramas. At present, the idol group that Nanxian has reached the top can be counted on his fingers: Shenqi, SJ, Youth, Big Bang, etc., and other so-called cosmic puppet bars, which also left the scene after a few years of smash hits.

Zhou Fangyuan's goal this time is at this level. The film market is too high-end, and he has other ways to enter, so he is not in a hurry.

As for TV series, he is a little interested, and like TOP singers, he can also try it if he has the opportunity. Idol singer is the easiest direction to start, and it is also his main direction.

The sixth layer is probably a comedy star. In Nanxian, the status of comedians is the lowest, and it is very difficult to get out of the way, especially some who also serve as hosts, this group of people has a low status, and the grade is not good, Zhou Fangyuan is completely disdainful, he wants to make money, naturally he wants to make a lot of money and crazy money, funny artists or something, it is not within the scope of his plan at all.
