Chapter 410: Three visits to the thatched house
The Oscars also have so-called political correctness.
As the old saying goes: go to the army to fight and strategize, and attack the heart first.
The real masters are playing brainwashing.
The way to achieve social stability is not only to use high-pressure politics and guns, but also to use culture, public opinion, and ideology to export at the highest level.
There is a word in Hollywood called racelessness, translated into Chinese called the dissolution of ethnicity, more and more diverse ethnic groups, African, Asian, Mexican, Italian, many diverse ethnic groups, like a family in the movie, help each other and love each other.
Isn't there a saying that the more you lack, the more you shout, and what you admire represents what you lack, first occupy the moral high ground.
The women's liberation movement and the black movement experienced in the 60s of the last century made the cultural left elite feel that the respect and protection of the rights and interests of women, blacks, minorities and other vulnerable groups in the film is a manifestation of the progress and superiority of the American social system.
However, racial and gender discrimination has always been a serious social problem. Therefore, the American values expressed in the movie are a fig leaf to cover up the social divisions and racial gender inequality in the United States.
At a deeper level, it is now in a downward cycle, with many internal social problems, coupled with the anti-American wave around the world, Hollywood, as the gathering of national cultural elites and the export of cultural values, can only avoid many problems.
That is, in order to maintain the image of the United States, the image of the United States must be lofty, and it must dare to blacken itself and make many movies that expose the darkness of its own government.
Don't look at the president and scolding society, in fact, they are all serving politics, and you have to find a point to make people speak out, right?
You have to be the spokesperson of the people, right?
After the people finished scolding, they continued to do what they had to do.
This is called the united front!
So Oscar plays the role of comforting ordinary people internally, showing them that we are all in this together, I understand you, but you don't make trouble, just watch the movie obediently.
This is cultural stability, and it also makes money, killing several birds with one stone.
Against all terrorism, anti-terrorist movies will be favored.
Oppose race, gender, sexual orientation and other inequality discrimination, just like sexuality movies, support undifferentiated love, believe that all people are created equal, and love is the foundation of everything!
What is the big love and the little love, the real and virtual love, the love of transgender, the love of interracial, the love of time and space, the transformation of love and hate, the love of perverts, the love of man and God.
"Brokeback Mountain", "Moonlight Boy", and even "The Shape of Water......
Defend justice, pursue justice, fear power, freedom, and indomitable fearless spirit. "Spotlight", "Braveheart", "Schindler's List", "Dances with Wolves", "Gladiator", ......
Movies that embody women's rights and interests, movies that empower women and love themselves against powerful forces, such as "Three Billboards".
Racism, such as Get Out.
Work against the government, reveal government conspiracy, government surveillance, Wall Street conspiracy.
Unwilling to fight against fate, the pursuit of freedom, preaching personal freedom, justice, and following one's heart. "Slumdog Millionaire", "Million Dollar Baby", ......
The heavier the better, the face is full of tragedy, preferably in a war-torn country, preferably a handicapped, a tribulation-ridden marginal low-level individual with a twisted and complex personality, and a rebellion against repressed human nature.
For example, "Hacksaw Ridge", "Captain Sully", ......
EVERYTHING IS READY, THROWING MONEY AT THE SO-CALLED LOBBY FOR LOBBYING POLICIES IS TO SET UP A PUBLIC RELATIONS TEAM TO FIND JUDGES TO PERSUADE ALL KINDS OF BUYOUTS.
To put it bluntly, it is a legalized bribery, which is no different from embezzlement and bribery.
The so-called more than 6,000 Oscar judges, most of them don't know how to review films in detail at all, and they don't care whether the film art is art or not, it's just that whichever company has the best public relations and spends more money, they will vote.
I heard that the total amount spent by the six congresses on the Oscar judges every year is more than 3 billion US dollars, and whichever one gives the money in place, which one has decent public relations, and which one is comfortable to serve, will let the winner win.
Organize various private screenings, entertain senior film media professionals, and hold various dinners......
After "Farewell My Concubine" was shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, Cheng Kaige thought that he was nine out of ten, and he was not angry, nor publicity, nor public relations, the American media and the Oscar judges felt that they were neglected and neglected, why are Chinese people so ignorant!
I won't give it to you, I'll award it to a Spanish film to you off!
Ang Lee has won three Academy Awards, five BAFTA Awards, four Golden Globes, two Golden Lions at the Venice Film Festival and two Golden Bears at the Berlin Film Festival.
In "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", a traditional story is used to talk about universal values, and the core is basically the ideological values of foreigners with the coat of martial arts.
In "Brokeback Mountain", it is a metaphor that in everyone's heart, there is a deep mountain that cannot be let go or go back.
In "Life of Pi", an Indian story is used to tell the survival and faith of people in desperate situations.
In "Memoirs of a Geisha", it tells the life experience of the heroine who struggles desperately and experiences honor and disgrace in the context of the great era.
From the earliest discussion of family ethics, to the later discussion of society and beliefs. He changes with the changes of the times, and every time he changes, he can grasp the essence. Each film is a breakthrough and never replicates itself.
If you want to talk about literary films,
Only serve Lao Li!
Compared with the "Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" created by Lao Mouzi with a lot of money, it still expresses the condescending compassion and unavoidable acceptance of the dusty woman in traditional values.
But the American values of equality and ultimate literati care for the disadvantaged are at odds with the benchmark of the Oscar's leftist white judges, so is it possible to win the award?
Therefore, Ding Cheng's strategy became: first increase his influence, become a top box office elixir, and become a sweet spot that all investors are eager for.
And then looking for a good script, the work or secondly, mainly public means, when the time is ripe, it's a big deal to use money to smash it, don't believe that those big men of the academy are really ironclad?
Of course, there is still a long way to go, after all, it is Hollywood, the world's film capital, and Lao Mei's one-third of an acre of land, step by step is the king.
"Does the director have to see me?" Ding Cheng looked at Yao Zai and asked, "You didn't refuse him last time?"
"It's back!" Yao Zai said helplessly: "Charlie is very insistent and called several times to ask to meet, so ......"
Ding Cheng nodded, the rapid preparation is the third part, the first two are Keanu Reeves all the way from beginning to end, the box office is not bad, and there is still a sentence until now:
Hollywood four can't be messed with,
Keanu Reeves' Dog,
Jason Statham's Express,
Denzel Washington's Friend,
Liam Neeson's family!
Whoever touches it dies!
