Xu Wangqiu continued the topic just now: "Although our film audiovisual language is lagging behind, it is not without its own things, and there are even times when it is ahead of the world. Nowadays, many people like to talk about Italian neorealism, but in fact, our realist films, such as "Angel on the Road" and "The Goddess", are earlier than neorealism. It's just that we didn't theorize, the film didn't go out, and it didn't have an impact in the world. If our national strength is strong enough, and these films go out at the beginning, we may be the ones who pioneer the trend of realism, and then the influence of Sun Yu's predecessors in the world will not be worse than that of Kurosawa.

How did our realistic films develop? They were developed on the basis of learning from the advanced theories of the West and in conjunction with China's reality. That's what we did, and we should do it now. Learn advanced things from abroad, innovate our films, and develop our own film genres. ”

Next, Xu Wangqiu compares Chinese left-wing realist films with Italian neorealist films to analyze the similarities and differences between the two. Xu Wangqiu's braking of China's left-wing realist films is certainly not a blind blow. In the 80s, when Chinese films were screened in Italy, the famous film critic Dacilaci was amazed: "Angel on the Road is a miracle because it embodies a much earlier approach to neorealism than in Italy. "In fact, movies like "Angel on the Road" are not one in China, but there are a batch.

Zhong Xinfei was shocked by Xu Wangqiu, thinking that this little guy's wealth of film knowledge is simply breathtaking, and he has his own ideas and concepts, and this alone has left many domestic film theorists far behind.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Wangqiu began to talk about New Hollywood, how the movie boys led by Coppola reformed the life of old Hollywood, and how they created a new Hollywood. He firmly believes that Chinese films should develop new Chinese films on the basis of inheriting traditions, just as the new Hollywood reformed the old Hollywood life.

Thinking of the difficulties that Chinese films will encounter in the future, Xu Wangqiu added: "Chinese films are not only facing the problem of backward film language, but there is also a problem that has not been revealed now, but it will definitely explode in a few years." In the 50s, due to the popularization of television, the American film industry was greatly impacted, the audience was greatly reduced, the box office shrank sharply, and the film industry fell into trouble. The Americans tried their best to try to make up for it, and they brought a series of new technologies to the market, such as widescreen movies, stereoscopic films, and drive-in theaters, but they did not achieve much success. It was only in recent years, with the rise of young directors such as Coppola, who revolutionized the language of cinema and combined it with technology to gradually bring American cinema out of its predicament. The impact of television on movies is a worldwide problem, which has been encountered by developed countries in the West, and we will definitely encounter it in the future. ”

Now there are very few domestic TV sets, less than one million units, and movies are at their most prosperous, with 50 or 60 million moviegoers per day, which can be said to be full. Filmmakers have not yet felt the threat of television to cinema. Now hearing Xu Wangqiu say this, Zhang Ke and Situ Zhaodun were slightly stunned, wondering if Xu Wangqiu's conclusion was too arbitrary?

Zhong Xianfei didn't know much about TV, and muttered: "We are different from the United States, will we also encounter this problem?"

Xu Wangqiu nodded affirmatively: "Dongying Films was also in trouble due to the impact of television at the end of the 60s, and the studio system collapsed. Now Akira Kurosawa can't find any investment and has no films to make; Nagisa Oshima is the same; Shohei Imamura has left the film industry to make TV documentaries; and great directors such as Kiyoshun Suzuki and Hiroshi Kawahara are all silent. In the past ten years, there has not been a new director with a real level in Dongying films. This is not only the case in Dongying, but also in France, Italy, and Germany. This is brought about by science and technology, and it is the development of production that brings about changes, and no country can escape it. ”

Zhong Xianfei and Zhang Ke don't know much about the current situation of world films, and their expressions were a little solemn when they heard Xu Wangqiu's words. Since it is a global problem, China will definitely encounter it in the future, so how should China deal with this problem?

Xu Wangqiu continued: "Our country has now begun to reform, and I believe that the economy will get better and better, and the people will gradually become richer. When the common people get rich, they will buy televisions in the same way that they buy radios now. At that time, Chinese films will face the same problems as the United States and Dongying, and everyone will no longer go to the cinema. Until now, filmmakers from other countries have not found a way out of this situation; In this case, it is very necessary to learn from the United States. ”

At that moment, the clamor of the students rushed into the office like a swarm of bees. After "Rooted in the Earth" ended, the students came out of the cafeteria. Zhong Xinfei's eyes fixed on Xu Wangqiu's face: "This issue is indeed worth paying attention to." I came to you today for something, your article has caused a lot of repercussions in the film industry after the publication of the "Film Art Reference", and we have received a lot of letters, as well as articles, some for you and some against you. ”

Xu Wangqiu nodded slightly, it is not surprising that his article will cause controversy, which is expected.

Zhong Xinfei continued: "Our Film Association's "Film Art" was originally planned to resume publication in January next year, but because of this matter, we decided to publish a special issue in advance to focus on this issue. This is related to the future development of Chinese films, and it is indeed worth in-depth discussion. We're going to publish a special issue in mid-October, and you're sure to have to write an article that goes into more detail about the issue. ”

Xu Wangqiu knew that this was very important, and immediately nodded: "I'll write it as soon as possible." He asked with a hippie smile, "Is there any manuscript fee?"

"Absolutely. Only then did Zhong Xinfei remember that he had forgotten the manuscript fee, took out a copy of "Film Art Reference Materials", and six yuan, and handed it to Xu Wangqiu, "Your film analysis is posted on "Film Art Reference Materials", this is a sample book and manuscript fee!"

Xu Wangqiu took the sample book and manuscript fee, and bowed to Zhong Xinfei with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Zhong." ”

After Xu Wangqiu left, Zhang Ke smiled and said, "How is it, this student is okay, right?"

Zhong Xinfei sighed: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed that a teenage doll could have such an understanding of movies and film language." With the level he has shown, I don't think it's a problem to be a teacher at Nortel. Sometimes you have to believe that there really are geniuses in this world. ”

Zhang Ke nodded slightly: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it." ”

Zhong Xianfei said: "Don't restrain such a student, give him more freedom and space, if possible, it is best to let him make a film as soon as possible, with his understanding and knowledge of film, it is a waste of time to continue to listen to lectures in the classroom." ”

Zhang Ke deeply agrees, it's just that Nortel is now poor and white, and the teachers have no chance to film, let alone the students, but he still said: "If there is a chance, I will definitely let him film, but with the conditions of our school, it is difficult!"

Xu Wangqiu came out of the office and thought about where to eat on the weekend, six yuan doesn't sound like much, but two or three meals in a small restaurant are enough. Walking to the door of the dormitory, he didn't want to go upstairs, so he shouted at the 303 dormitory and asked Liu Lin to bring the lunch box down.

After a while, Liu Lin and Wu Zhiliu came out of the upper floor, handed the lunch box to Xu Wangqiu, and asked Zhang Ke what he was looking for. Xu Wangqiu didn't explain much, just said that they talked about the movie for a while.

When they came to the cafeteria, Xu Wangqiu took out the food ticket and the meal ticket to buy a good meal, and found a table to eat and chat. The dishes in Nortel's canteen are very cheap, between 5 cents and 1 cent 5 per dish, but they are basically vegetarian dishes, and there is no meat in sight.

When Xu Wangqiu was eating, he didn't like to read, so he put "Film Art Reference" on the table. Liu Lin stretched out his hand to take it, opened the magazine, swept his eyes along the catalog, and talked about the audio-visual language of "Heroes' Children", the author Xu Wangqiu, hey! He shouted: "Wangqiu, you have published an article again!" He turned to Wu Zhiliu and shouted: "Brothers, don't eat! Let's go into the city to eat, let Wangqiu have a treat!"

Liu Lin is a loud voice, such a shout, everyone around him heard it, and countless eyes instantly focused on Xu Wangqiu. Zhao Ban sat not far from Xu Wangqiu and them, and with him were several students from the Demon Capital, including Jiang Haiyang, Zhang Jianya and others. After Zhao Ban and them heard Liu Lin's words, they couldn't help but look at Xu Wangqiu.

Xu Wangqiu glared at Liu Lin and said coldly, "Do you want to find a loudspeaker and let you broadcast." He turned his head to Wu Zhiliu and said, "There are still movies in the afternoon at school, and now we can't catch up with the afternoon movies when we go to the city, and we go into the city to eat on Sunday, but there is no Liu Lin's share." ”

Liu Lin hurriedly admitted his mistake: "Don't, Wangqiu, don't take me with!

Wu Zhiliu snatched the "Film Art Reference Materials" from Liu Lin's hand, flipped through it, and said in surprise: "This is the film analysis of "Heroes' Children", Wangqiu, this can't be the article you wrote when you took the exam, right?"

Hearing Wu Zhiliu say this, Gu Changwei snatched the magazine over, and then exclaimed: "It's really a film analysis of "Heroes' Children", and the articles written in the exam can also be posted on "Film Art References", you are too powerful!"

Xu Wangqiu said disapprerovantly: "Mr. Zhang Ke thinks that my film analysis is well written, so he gave it to Zhong Xinfei Zhong Lao, Zhong Lao felt that the article was okay, so he posted it on "Film Art Reference". ”

The surrounding students were very surprised when they heard that Xu Wangqiu had published an article, but when they heard that the video analysis written during the art examination was published, their sense of surprise was greatly reduced. This is similar to the college entrance examination essay, last year and after this year's college entrance examination, some excellent essays were selected and published in newspapers or magazines. These articles are really well written, but it doesn't matter how good they are, after all, they are just college entrance examination essays, and Xu Wangqiu's film analysis should be the same.

However, when Zhao Ban and Jiang Haiyang heard Xu Wangqiu's words, they were like being struck by lightning and fell into a sluggish state. After a long while, Zhao Ban looked at Jiang Haiyang and said in an unbelievable tone: "I heard me right, he said that Zhong Xianfei thought his article was good, so he posted it on "Film Art Reference"?"

Jiang Haiyang also couldn't believe his ears: "I seem to have heard him say so, this is impossible, right?"

Zhang Jianya was an actor in Shanghai Film Studio before entering Nortel, and he didn't know much about film theory, so he said puzzledly: "What's wrong with you, didn't you just post an article written for the exam, why did you make a fuss?"

Zhao Ban rolled his eyes and said with disdain: "Zhong Xinfei is an authority on film theory, and "Film Art Reference" is an internal journal of the Film Association, which often publishes articles by film experts. The art examination article is posted on it, which is equivalent to the college entrance examination essay published in "People's Literature". ”

Zhang Jianya and the others were also dumbfounded when they heard this, looking at Xu Wangqiu's gaze was like seeing a demon dragon making waves.
