Chapter 205: Interview (4/5)
After the release of "Nanjing!Nanjing!", a lot of bad reviews...
It's certainly a good thing to make a movie like this.
A lot of our history needs to be recreated.
However, Lu Chuan...
To be honest, I have always been more disgusted with evaluating a movie from the perspective of values, national outlook, and moral outlook, but "Nanjing!Nanjing!" is an exception, because this movie will inevitably poke at the sore spot of some people: How dare you use a Japanese as the protagonist?!
Lu Chuan wanted to make "Nanjing!Nanjing!" into a work that reflects on human nature—he wanted to look at it from the perspective of the whole human being, to show the physical or psychological trauma caused by the war to the grassroots aggressors, soldiers and the invaded, and to express that war is a disaster for the entire human race.
The protagonist in "Nanjing", Kadokawa, is a little innocent and a little pretentious, before coming to China, he was a teacher, and he was a virgin.
Such a man who is as pure as a blank sheet of paper, if he is changed to other movies, I am afraid that he will be more acceptable: such as martial arts, detectives, science fiction, and idols.
But only this movie, the audience can't accept it, because the aggressor will not be so simple and naïve.
This is filming the Nanjing Massacre!
You can't look at people struggling in the hell of war from a "human" perspective – the Nanjing Massacre was a dehumanized killing of innocent people by armed men!
As long as you are a participant, whether you represent justice or not, you are an executioner, a demon!
Because of this, Kadokawa's confession and suicide are also untenable, giving people a strong sense of implausibility.
If the fundamentals of the characters don't stand, the movie is half a failure.
Lu Chuan not only did this, he also stood on the so-called moral high ground, teaching the audience to "forget the pain of war, the Japanese are not all bad people, and the Chinese are not so innocent as victims!"
Are you sick?
In recent years, the Internet is particularly fond of saying that people who have the right to speak "eat human blood steamed buns", which is widely quoted from Lu Xun's "Medicine", but it is basically out of place.
But it is appropriate to describe Lu Chuan.
On April 22, "Nanjing! Nanjing!" was officially released nationwide.
Although the theme of the movie is relatively heavy, it won 15.4 million box office in the country on the first day by virtue of the topic effect, which is close to the 17 million on the first day of "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb"!
After 5 days of release, it achieved a box office of 65 million and won the weekly box office championship...
Breaking 100 million is for sure...
Then, Lu Chuan publicly said on Weibo that the box office of "Nanjing!Nanjing!" broke 200 million, and he went to Guoben!
Even Feng pants didn't dare to say, 'The box office of the Tang earthquake broke 1 billion, and I will go to Guoben'...
Big brother, this is the pain point of the nation!
……
Lu Xiaoran was interviewed by "People" at the hotel.
The location is in Beijing.
The filming of "Time and Space Traveler" has entered the stage of interruption, and the hero and heroine fall in love...
The episode 'How long will I love you' was sung by Qu Wanting, and by the way, she was asked to hold the guitar and appear in the movie for two minutes...
The husky says he remembers all the lyrics and melodies...
This shocked Lu Xiaoran, you still listen to English songs when you write online articles?
He said, 'Hehe, I also want to listen to Chinese songs!' All the horses are 'chickens, you're too beautiful' type, what can I do?'
'Chicken, you're too beautiful?'
"You'll know when the time comes!"
Everything will be known when the time comes...
What will the Chinese pop music scene look like in the future?
……
The editorial department of People magazine belongs to the southern department.
The southern department is a bunch of media who are holding back to do things, and if there is nothing to do, they will create things!
This time it was Xie Mengyao who came to interview Lu Xiaoran, who was famous for interviewing Guo Degang...
Later, he became famous for scolding Fan Fan, Brother Fan's hardcore black fan, calling his female fans 'prostitutes', and his real name was Diss Fan Fan: I am also really pretending to be forced, I sing like shit, and the words are not nutritious, looking at his feeling of being a judge, it is like the intern who writes the worst manuscript at the magazine review meeting scolds the main writer one by one.
It's a pity that people are soft-spoken!
Jump straight to the topic:
"What type of director does Director Lu think he is?"
"It's organized, I gathered a group of people together to discuss the camera position, the composition, including the actors' movements... In fact, it is enough for the director to do this!"
"Why do you want to be a director?"
“… I've answered this question countless times, and no one asks me to make a movie!"
Xie Mengyao smiled a little embarrassedly...
He also wants to ask you directly what you think of the bad comments on the Internet...
Shouldn't you say a few words of greetings first?
simply put his heart sideways: "Recently, there have been a lot of bad comments about you on the Internet, what do you think?"
“… What can I think?
"Is that true?"
"What do you think?" Lu Xiaoran sneered disdainfully...
"This..."
"My schedule this year is full, three movies, one TV series, I don't have time to audition for other movies at all, I don't understand that I am honest in filming, using the copyright I bought myself or the script I wrote, why do people watch me unhappy?
"Understood?"
"That's the norm in my circle!
"I knew who bought the water army, I was so angry, I have no grudge against you, why are you hacking me?"
"My agent told me: In the circle, you can't be a good person, if you don't provoke others, people will still be dissatisfied with you!
Lu Xiaoran leaned back: "To put it mildly, as long as you enter this circle, both men and women are natural opponents." To put it mildly, up to the owner, down to the role, the company, salary, entertainment, pomp, fans, exposure, the fight is high and low. If you live in five stars, I can't live in four stars, if you have a big name, I will be the finale, if you take 10 million, I will take 20 million. ”
"I want to be both virtuous and artistic, but some people just want to step on me!"
Xie Mengyao intercepted the key point: "Mercenary water army?"
"This is all the routine of Hong Kong and Taiwan in the early years, hiring the media to smear opponents, after the advent of the Internet era, everyone prefers to go to some forums to discuss celebrities, find a few people to spread fake news, the three of them become tigers, anyway, there are too many words, no matter how nonsense you break the news, some people believe it!"
Speaking of this, he looked at Xie Mengyao suspiciously: "You are a media, don't you know?"
“… So what are you going to do about it?"
"They suggested that we also find some water army black wave of them, and the other party has a lot of black material on them, why are you looking for female college students or something..."
"But I refused, these days I have also figured out, the important thing is the original intention, ideals, persistence, and your own choice. The audience gossips about you because you are famous, everyone will be curious about you, the more mysterious you are, the more interested the audience will be in you, and the things discussed will naturally be good and bad, actors and directors will ultimately rely on their works to speak, as long as I keep putting out good works, they will naturally shut up!"
"And what is your relationship with Wen Zhang?"
"I have a very ordinary colleague relationship with him, and I haven't seen each other since "Struggle"!"
"But a lot of people will think of you as brothers!"
"That can only mean that we acted well and created an illusion for the audience!"
"Many people say that he relies on women to ascend to the throne, what do you think?"
“… Isn't it?" Lu Xiaoran made up for it: "Heroes don't ask where they come from, it's normal to rely on women to get on top!"
Xie Mengyao was so excited that she was about to cry...
I like this kind of direct right, that kind of brother, friend and brother play, it's annoying to watch!
