Chapter 560: Chinese and Foreign

On January 1, New Year's Day, at eight o'clock in the morning, Huaxia Film Online updated yesterday's box office data.

"Million Dollar Baby", 22 million, with a film scheduling rate of 23%.

"The Boxer", 19.5 million, with a film scheduling rate of 22%.

The American imported film "Black Falling", which was released earlier in the Christmas file, is close to being down, and the film scheduling rate is only 5% after a few days of decay, and the single-day box office is less than 4 million.

It's just that, despite the loss of both box office and word-of-mouth, due to the nature of the film, its director David has once again appeared in the newspapers with his evaluation of "Million Dollar Baby" after bombarding the film schedule in domestic theaters.

"It's a very good art film. ”

"I love it. ”

"I'm shocked to see such a style of work in China, and if I can, I hope to talk to the director in person. ”

"I don't need to say too much about dreams, about dignity, the director has already expressed a lot in the narration-"

"If boxing has a trick, it's to keep fighting, to push the limits of endurance, to break bones, to crack kidneys, to detach retina. The trick is: gamble everything for a dream that no one else can understand. ”

"This film is about boxing, but it's not about boxing, it's about dreams and love after boxing. ”

Director David spoke eloquently in the face of the reporter's interview, but he was a little hesitant and stuck when asked the last question.

The reporter asked: "Director David, you have such a high opinion of "Million Dollar Baby", it is said that your work "Black Falling" is known as a film that will win an Oscar in the United States, and now if these two films are shortlisted, which one will you choose as a judge?"

"You asked a very interesting question, and I had a hard time deciding. David replied quite honestly after hesitation, and then he also said to reporters, "If you can, you can see this director and ask him this question." ”

The reporter agreed, but he wrote the American director's request into the report before he asked Gan Jing, so he didn't have to worry about Gan Jing refusing his interview, which was considered a public inquiry.

Viewers online were surprised to see the report from director David, but as another reporter posted a slightly vague but recognizable video of director Kang Hyun, viewers began to consider whether the evaluation of the work was biased.

Jiang Xian in the video was a little embarrassed at first, but he still accepted the interview when the taxi was fruitless.

"Director Kang Hyun, why did you come to watch the drama "Million Dollar Baby"? Aren't you contributing to the box office for your competitors?" Even though the reporter himself does not appear in the video, you can hear the excitement just by listening to his voice.

Jiang Xian was a little helpless, and after looking left and right, he could only reply expressionlessly: "My dad recommended me to watch it, there is my dad's performance in this play, can't I watch it?"

"Then why did you come to see "The Boxer" as soon as it was released?" the reporter asked again.

Kang Hyun's expressionless face seemed to hide something else at this time: "Because my dad got drunk at the premiere dinner of "Million Dollar Baby", he came home and demanded that I have to see how good this work is, so, I came, and I didn't want to quarrel with him." ”

Is that the reason? true or false?

The reporter had such thoughts during the interview, but he would not pursue the truth or falsehood, anyway, the audience would analyze it carefully after seeing it, and he asked Jiang Xian, who was in competition with Gan Jing: "Then Director Jiang, what do you think of this play? I heard that Director Gan Jing once said that this drama will convince you, and you have finished watching "Million Dollar Baby" now, how do you feel?"

Jiang Xian was silent for a long time in the face of such a camera, and finally said: "This drama is very well filmed, this style is Gan Jing's bold attempt, and I think his attempt is very successful." As a viewer, I think this drama is an excellent movie, and I am very touched after watching it. As a director, I ......"

Jiang Xian in the camera obviously has an inhalation and exhalation action: "As a director, honestly, I am convinced." ”

"Director Jiang, Director Jiang, last question, do you regret not continuing to use Li Zaoyu?" the reporter asked.

Jiang Xian frowned, and said with a frank attitude that made people feel surprised: "I don't regret it, I can't inspire that kind of Li Zaoyu, in addition to the Gan Jing picture style in this play, my favorite is Li Zaoyu's performance, a very good actor." ”

"Thank you, thank you Director Jiang for accepting our interview with Sports Weekly. The reporter finally said politely.

Jiang Xian nodded just now, and was suddenly stunned, and wondered, "You are from Sports Weekly?"

"Hey, what are you doing with a sports media interview? I said are you idle......"

The footage of the video interview quickly blurred, and the exclusive interview with a reporter from Sports Weekly ended in the early hours of the morning outside the theater.

On the morning of New Year's Day, media interviews with David, the director of "Black Fall", and Kang Hyun, the director of "The Boxer", were quickly reprinted to all corners, especially the exclusive interview with the latter.

Director David is a well-known director in the United States, not to mention that "Black Falling", which encountered Waterloo in China this time, has a good reputation in the United States, and his previous works also have very good commercial and artistic performances, and director Jiang Xian, who is more familiar to the audience in China, is an authentic famous director.

Now, the two directors of China and the United States have unanimously expressed high praise for "Million Dollar Baby" directed by Gan Jing, which can't help but cause some heated discussions.

In such an era, movies are becoming more and more concerned about commercial value, and box office performance has become more and more an important indicator to measure a film, but sometimes people can still discuss another level of the standard of the film - the geometry of the artistic value of the work.

In the afternoon of the same day, the film forum's rating of "Million Dollar Baby" ended, and the score scored by the majority of fans and viewers for this drama work was presented in front of them - 8.9 points.

High score!

The mainstream evaluation is not recommended for friends to watch, but there is no lower score in the hand!

On the night of New Year's Day, the long movie reviews of "Million Dollar Baby" gradually came out, and more fans began to analyze the latest movie of Beijing Blu-ray from a more professional perspective.

Characters, narration, structure, rhythm, painting style, expression, etc., any of these can write a long movie review on the content of the movie.

Another night, the box office results on January 2 were updated, "Million Dollar Baby" rose slightly to 23 million, and "Boxer" fell slightly to 19 million.

At the right time, the latest interview about Gan Jing was released, and he first refused to meet and communicate with director David, and then gave a very relaxed answer to public questions.

"This is a question to be given, there is no doubt about me. ”

"Oh, Director Jiang Xian said that he was convinced? I was a little surprised, well, Director Jiang Xian's attitude is very sincere, this is going to change me, I will probably play tricks, if you are not convinced, you are not convinced, and if you have the ability, you will also punch me. Hmm, I'm honest about myself, right?"

"I'm also very happy to let everyone see a different Li Zaoyu, she works hard, and I'm willing to let those who work hard shine. ”

"The box office? hahaha, I'm not worried about the box office at all, why am I worried about this? Who said that?

"Hehehe, she's joking with you, believe me, don't believe her. ”
