Many people can't understand that Mao Lao Chen's energy is so big?

Because his roots are red!

belongs to a bunch of seniors who grew up, and after graduation, they entered the Beijing Film Studio!

Beijing Film Studio, which is the film production center in Beijing, how many people have come out?

Not to mention anything else, the third master used to be the director of Beijing Film Studio, and Yu Dong was a deputy section-level distributor of Beijing Film Studio, and later, Beijing Film and China Film merged...

Therefore, don't look at Lao Chen, it seems that he has nothing to do with Wang Shuo's wave of people, but he is also a circle, and everyone has to call him Kai Ye when they see him!

Feng Xiaogang's autobiography "I Dedicate My Youth to You", there is a paragraph in it that reads: The most suitable place for Kaiye to stay is the ivory tower, every nationality will have such two or three masters, and no matter how poor the country is, it has to be raised. The task is simple, there is only one task. If you want to shoot it, you have to shoot epics that are of great cognitive value to your own people. There is no need to think about entertainment at all, the more profound it is, the more valuable it is. The audience is also a minority group of scholars who study the history of the nation's psyche, and others love to watch it or not, and they have no intention of taking the money back from your pocket anyway.

Gao Xiaosong also said, 'When Kai Ye makes movies, there is always a big theme, a big humanity, and then stuff the story into it!'

In fact, Li An's early movies are also like this, but he mixed his own humanities into the story, explained it in simple terms, and explained it clearly - "Pushing Hands", "The Wedding Banquet", "Eating Men and Women", and the family warmth and emotional world, watching these three, there is always a feeling of reading textbooks and articles when I was in school, which seems to be plain, but in fact, the philosophy of life has long been contained in it!

We really don't lack directors who like to tell big truths, what we lack is the kind of directors who can explain big truths clearly!

You asked Lao Chen to shoot "Inception"...

I can't imagine!

......

The story of "Zhao's Orphan" is very simple, in the Spring and Autumn Period, Zhao Dun, the secretary of the Jin Kingdom, was framed by the general Tu Anjia, and more than 300 members of his family were killed. In order to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, Tu Anjia ordered a nationwide search for Zhao Wu, an orphan of the Zhao family. Cheng Ying, a guest of the Zhao family, and the old minister Gongsun Pestle made a plan to rescue Zhao Wu. In order to save Zhao Wu, Princess Jin, Han Ju, and Gongsun Pestle sacrificed their lives. Twenty years later, Zhao Wu was raised by Cheng Ying, knew all his grievances, showed the monarch, personally took Tu Anjia and sentenced him to death, and finally avenged the whole family.

Ji Junxiang's "Zhao's Orphan" mileage baby took the initiative to sacrifice his child to save Zhao's orphan, while Lao Chen's "Zhao's Orphan" was inadvertently involved in Cheng Ying.

Lao Chen thinks that taking the initiative to give his children is too anti-human, but he ignores a very important point, the "normative culture" in the culture talks about ethics and morality, and there is no distinction between high and low, who is good and who is bad.

Ji Junxiang's "Orphan of Zhao" completely embodies the ancient Chinese's idea of "loyalty and righteousness", and reflects the important part of Chinese culture in which courtiers are loyal to the monarch and friends pay attention to righteousness, and Lao Chen changed this way, and the part of the normative culture in Chinese culture was completely gone.

But if it really takes this shot, there must be more people who think it's inappropriate...

Just like tasting dung and worrying about burying children and serving their mothers, the twenty-four filial pieties in ancient times are really inappropriate today!

What does that mean?

It's just that the movie "Zhao's Orphan" really doesn't need to exist!

The story of "Zhao's Orphan", using this extreme way to interpret loyalty and righteousness, is really too far from the human nature understood by the public - people can kill their relatives with righteousness, but they cannot seek righteousness with their sons, which is the bottom line of human nature.

But Lao Chen likes it very much...

Then he filmed, the resources he could mobilize were really terrible, Ge You, Wang Xueqi, Huang Xiaoming, Fan Xiaopang, Haiqing, Bao Guoan, Zhang Fengyi...

After watching the movie, Lu Xiaoran sighed.

Get up and applaud, then sit down and think about what to do later...

You must be praised, people invite you to come, just to let you say good things!

Sugar Candy pulled off his clothes and asked in a low voice, "... Who's the main character in this play?"

“... Uncle Ge!"

"Isn't it "Zhao's Orphan"?"

“... You just praise the lighting and colors of the movie are so good, don't talk about anything else!"

"Oh..."

Tangtang sat down with peace of mind, waiting for the interview, and then the host really called her name, she got up and said: "I have always felt that it is unnecessary to discuss the techniques of Director Chen's films, because his films are all first-class in China in this regard!"

I've been waiting for a long time, but there's no more to follow...

Stuck?

Lu Xiaoran took her microphone: "What she means is that this movie has exciting parts and amazing parts, and for a movie, this is enough!"

"What do you think of our "Orphan of Zhao"?"

"Very good, very similar to Li He's poem!"

Li He's poems are not good on the whole, but there are always good sentences that make people's jaws drop, such as "black clouds crush the city and want to destroy it", "the rooster cries the world is white", "if the sky is loved, the sky is old" and other peerless sentences!

The good passages of "Zhao's Orphan" are really good, and the light parts are really unsitting.

The murder, coup d'état and the search for orphans and orphans at the beginning of the passage are tight, and the fate of the characters has been leading people down, and it has indeed achieved as stated on the poster, "Although we all know the ending, we can't help but worry until the last minute". The magnificence and brutality of the palace coup scene can be juxtaposed with most epic cinematic masterpieces. Whether it is art, photography, or the exquisite lines and performances, they all effectively support the aura of the film!

But, after that, a thousand miles ...

It's a bit like some of us in bed, the beginning is very fierce, and after a few stabs, it goes soft... A few more times, I simply can't stand up...

It's hard for this movie to get a high box office!

And that's exactly what happened...

On December 6, "Laughing Jianghu" won 43 million at the box office in the first weekend, and "Zhao's Orphan" won 31 million at the box office in one day and two days.

"Lone Agent" reported 92 million the next weekend, with a cumulative box office of 310 million, continuing to lead the single-day box office list...

According to the prediction of the theater chain, it is a foregone conclusion that "Lonely Agent" will break 500 million, and whether it can go further depends on whether the follow-up "Let the Bullets Fly" will be effective!

......

Tangtang is helping Lu Xiaoran pack her luggage.

"You're really not going?"

"Don't go, you go to the audition, I'll go with it, what's the matter?"

"Look at Tom Cruise, I heard that he is only 1.7 meters, and you are taller than him in high heels!"

“... Not interested!"

"You go, the capitalist world is full of temptations, without you, I can't hold it, in case I am tempted!"

“... Do you like them?"

"I don't like it!"

Who doesn't love a Yanmar?

"That's not the end, the end of the year is coming, I have to participate in all kinds of awards parties, I can't get away!"

“... That's it. ”

In fact, this trip to North America is only a week...
