Chapter 724: Who Else Is I?

domineering, this is everyone's first feeling of Lin Qirong's words.

Everyone knows that the Hollywood film industry is incomparable to the Chinese film industry, and they have never even thought about this problem, they just hope to get a piece of the pie and earn more from the rapidly developing Chinese film industry.

Only Lin Qirong dared to say this, and only he was qualified to say this.

Because he has created several movies released in the North Rice region, the box office is not ordinarily high, and he has been recognized by his counterparts in the United States, and there is still a lot of cooperation between them.

That's why he was able to say such a thing on the Omira talk show, and if someone else said it, he would be laughed at.

"Anyone can say big things, but can it be realized? Lin Qirong continued.

"I bluntly said in the show that now we have indeed made some good movies and achieved good results, but this is an individual phenomenon, and it does not mean that the overall level of the Chinese film industry has really improved.

The key is that all of us filmmakers here, whether directors, actors, screenwriters or technicians, are indispensable.

So what should we continue to work on? This is the question I want to talk to you today, and I hope you can provide your ideas, and we will work together to make the development of China's film industry better and healthier. ”

The audience continued to applaud, and everyone looked at Lin Qirong seriously, whether it was an investor or a director, whether it was an actor or a technician, they were all closely related to the film industry, and they all hoped that the film industry in China could develop better and better, so that they could live better.

"Innovation is the first issue I want to talk about today. ”

Lin Qirong raised an index finger and said, "The times are changing, and our filmmakers must also change with them, and we can't make movies with old views and ideas, which will only make movies that the audience doesn't like."

"Nezha's Demon Boy Descends to the World", everyone should have seen it, right? Why can it succeed? The key lies in innovation.

Just imagine, if we still follow the traditional mythological story to make this movie, without adding some popular elements and adapting the plot, what we see is still the story of Nezha and the sea, without any new ideas, and the audience will naturally not buy it.

We boldly reincarnated the spirit bead into a demon boy, turned Nezha's troubles into the entanglement of fate between Nezha and Ao Bing, and boldly adapted the relationship between Li Jing and Nezha.

So there is this movie with a clear theme that reflects the twists and turns of the growth of superheroes, which has been recognized and resonated by the audience in all aspects, and is recognized and resonated by audiences all over the world, and then it has its excellent results.

It's innovation that gives this story a new lease of life. ”

"We have always had a bad problem in Huaxia, that is, we don't pay attention to the role of screenwriters, and we like to adapt the script in the direction that we think is right, and the director and actors can change it according to their own ideas, and the result is that the plot is messy, and what you want to say is completely unclear.

There is a saying in Hollywood that says it well, the script is the script of a play, the script should be the soul of the whole movie, and everyone must serve around the script and strive to interpret the characters in the script.

Directors and actors can make appropriate changes and processes according to their own understanding, but they should not change the script at will, let alone ignore the role of the screenwriter, I think there should be no one who understands the script they create better than the screenwriter, right?"

Many screenwriters in the audience showed gloomy looks, this is indeed the actual situation, and what Lin Qirong said was bloody for a while.

Although they are screenwriters, they have never been able to speak in movies, and the originally good plot has been revised into a mess, and the pot is still on their backs.

"For screenwriters, innovation is the most important thing, and if the content of the script you write is not realistic and cannot meet the requirements of the director, then don't blame the directors for adapting according to their own ideas.

In short, I hope that all filmmakers must have innovative ideas, we have a long history and culture in China, these are our inexhaustible treasures, but to make good use of them, we must innovate. ”

Everyone in the audience showed a thoughtful look.

"The second expectation is that our filmmakers can take materials from the people, use them for the people, and truly shoot movies that the people like.

To give an example, "I Am Not the God of Medicine", why it has achieved such good results? is because it reflects the social reality of high drug prices, which has greatly resonated with everyone.

When we make movies, we must know what kind of content our audience likes to watch, and in what aspect of your plot is going to impress them.

We can't just make movies according to our own assumptions, but we have to start from the audience to make movies that the audience likes, and only then will our films be successful.

When making a comedy, you have to think about how to make the audience laugh inadvertently, instead of piling up lines with all kinds of old memes, or using pompous performances to please the audience.

When making a realistic movie, you have to consider what the audience actually feels about this reality, and you have to go to that group to walk around in order to be able to make content that really moves the audience.

To make a war blockbuster, we must grasp the relationship between the big and the small, the big scene must be large, and it must be shocking enough, all kinds of weapons and equipment are no problem in turn, as long as you have enough funds, the audience also loves to watch this.

But we can't just have big scenes, we have to focus on a small group of representative characters, such as the Jiaolong squad in "Operation Red Sea", their experience is the epitome of normal war, which can make the audience feel the cruelty of war.

For example, if we want to shoot the battle of crossing the Yangtze River, it is certainly shocking to fire thousands of cannons, and it is also spectacular for thousands of troops to cross the Yangtze River, but if we can focus more on one of the small teams, follow them to feel the whole war, and follow them to finally rush into the presidential palace, then will this content be more realistic?

We have to remember one thing, that is, the movies that the masses like are good movies, and they can have a high box office, and everything else is false. ”

"The above are some of my understanding of the development of the film industry, we have indeed made some good movies, but the development of our film industry is far from enough, and all aspects of the subject matter have not been fully explored.

Especially if we want to enter overseas, then commercial blockbusters are topics that we can't avoid, ordinary comedies and romance films are impossible to be recognized by foreign audiences, only blockbusters, war blockbusters, sci-fi blockbusters, superhero blockbusters, these can be unanimously recognized by the public.

And in this regard, we are not doing enough, including me.

I sincerely hope that all of us filmmakers can think more and prepare more, shoot more excellent films, and jointly promote the development of the Chinese film industry.

I believe that one day in the future, we will be able to catch up with Hollywood, and our Fengtai Awards will be able to become a holy place in the hearts of filmmakers around the world like the Golden Bear Award and the Oscars. ”

The audience gave a standing ovation and watched Lin Qirong leave the stage with reverence.

Regardless of whether everyone can do it in the future, but at least at this moment, they feel their blood boiling, and they can't wait for themselves to contribute to the Chinese film industry as Lin Qirong said.

Among them, a group of outstanding filmmakers will surely emerge to promote the continuous progress of the Chinese film industry.

This is the real purpose of Lin Qirong's speech this time.

At his level, the things he considers are naturally different from ordinary filmmakers, so when the organizing committee invites him to speak, he will readily agree and say such a thing.

Who else is me?

······

Lin Qirong's remarks at the Fengtai Awards caused a huge impact, and the media from all sides carried out long reports and comments.

CCTV, Shonan Satellite TV and other TV stations also talked about this issue on their programs, and invited many experts to analyze and comment.

The departments concerned have also attached great importance to it and have conscientiously studied the relevant countermeasures.

There is no way, today's Lin Qirong can be said to be a celebrity in China, a real superstar, who plays a pivotal role in the strategy of cultural going out implemented by Huaxia.

In fact, Lin Qirong also proved his worth with his own actions.

His success in the United States also gave him a great say in this regard, and his words carried a lot of weight, and his words at the Fengtai Award naturally caused a lot of waves.

According to Xu Anshun, they are now formulating the so-called five-year development plan for the cultural industry, preparing to establish a standardized system in all aspects and guide the cultural industry to embark on a more standardized and efficient path.

The film industry is naturally a top priority.

Lin Qirong and Tonghua Group are important reference objects, because they have proved that they have found the right path and achieved a lot of success with their excellent results.

"It is estimated that during this period of time, many departments will intensively go to your group for investigation and research, and many enterprises and companies will also go to you to learn from you, and you will support our work. ”

"Naturally, we are willing to support it. Lin Qirong said with a smile, "I can't just leave nothing after the shot, the door of our group is open at any time, and everyone is welcome to communicate." ”

He didn't expect such a big response this time, and even Zuo Yifei called him specifically and told him that his speech at the Fengtai Award had reached the ears of the supreme chief, which was considered to be the best explanation of "cultural self-confidence", and it was also a suitable path for the development of Chinese culture, and all parties naturally attached great importance to it.

I have to say that this is an unexpected joy, and it is also a huge opportunity for the development of various cultural industries in China, especially the film industry.

He has plenty of reasons to look forward to the future.
