Hearing the other party's words, Li Zhanshan and the others couldn't help laughing.

"First of all, your question is very interesting, but your point of view is very problematic. Li Zhanshan said with a smile.

"The three major European film festivals, in the eyes of many people, are the pinnacle awards of film art, and it is undeniable that the three major European film festivals can be said to have great influence, and it can also be said to be the dream place of many filmmakers. ”

"Speaking of the three major film festivals, do you know the selection mechanism of the three major film festivals?" asked Li Zhanshan with a smile.

"Why are the Hollywood Awards so influential? The main reason is that the strength of North American films, on the other hand, it is necessary to talk about the selection mechanism, the Hollywood Film Awards, qualified to vote for more than 6,000 judges, which makes the nomination of Hollywood's Film Awards begin to become more authoritative, even if the Hollywood Awards are not against public relations, but more than 6,000 judges, if they want public relations, they may not be able to get nominations so easily, and even if they are publicized, the final winners, you still can't predict in advance, there are too many factors that affect it, because of uncertainty and mystery, so even if the Hollywood Awards accept public relations, it is still an authoritative representative。 Li Zhanshan said.

"For the three major European film festivals, their selection mechanism is simpler, so simple that many judges can influence the attribution of the awards, while for key awards, they only have absolutely no more than 10 judges to vote for the final results.

The difference in the chairmen of the jury of the three major film festivals each year will also affect the type of award-winning films of the year, and the three major film festivals are more recognized by some more authoritative people than by a large number of filmmakers. ”

"So, the three major film festivals can represent the art of cinema? It's too shallow. Li Zhanshan shook his head and said.

"In fact, this involves a problem of cognition, there are many A-class film festivals in the world, and the three major European film festivals have a huge influence, and are even called the palace of film art, but we must recognize that it was 20 years ago, when Hollywood movies were not so strong, on the contrary, the European film market, in that era, was relatively good. ”

"But are those films really just going to the European Film Festival to get artistic recognition? I don't think that's the case, but because as long as they win the award, it means that the film can sell abroad. Li Zhanshan said with a little sarcasm.

"But why don't the three major European film festivals seem to have so much influence now?" Li Zhanshan asked rhetorically.

"Because, European cinema has declined, and now, whether it is a commercial film or an art film, what do we see and hear more? In terms of art, it is the Hollywood Academy Awards, and commercial films are the box office and special effects. ”

"In my opinion, art and business are complementary to each other for a country's film market, why Hollywood's Academy Awards can be famous all over the world, this is actually inseparable from the operation of business, I believe many people know, the Academy Awards, in fact, is not so pure, the Academy Awards, need to spend money on public relations, doesn't it sound ironic?" Li Zhanshan said with a sarcastic smile.

"Academy Awards, looking at the films that have been nominated and awarded, which one has not spent millions, or even tens of millions of dollars in public relations costs? To some extent, you can see it as art, and you also need to use money to buy it and use it for public relations, but many people look down on commercial films, which is a very ironic thing in itself, for example, the Oscars, the North American Academy of Film and Arts, although they don't openly encourage public relations, but the rules are there, you don't have public relations, why let those who haven't seen your movies vote for you?"

"Similarly, European film festivals are also moving closer to the Oscars, and there are really fewer and fewer people who win awards purely because of films, so ......"

"Just because it has not been recognized by the European Film Festival, it is too shallow to say that our domestic literary films are in decline. Li Zhanshan shook his head and said.

"Besides, why have few of our domestic films won awards at the three major European film festivals in recent years? Is it the decline of literary films? Not really, but because what are the films that won awards in the early years? Many films have not even been approved by the state, they are secretly filmed and then taken to awards, why is this happening? The reason is that what did the Europeans of that era like to see? It is because of how backward the rural areas of our country are, how distorted human nature is, and how ignorant the people are, and these movies themselves can be said to be of no help to Chinese films. ”

"Film itself is a kind of audio-visual art, but at the same time, it is also a window of publicity to the outside world, I am not saying that that kind of film cannot be made, but it depends on what is the original intention of your shooting? If it is just to win awards, that is to please foreign judges, then what is the point of making this kind of film?"

Saying that, Li Zhanshan said with a look of hatred for iron: "We have many directors who can actually make good movies, but in that era, in the domestic market, it was impossible to make movies profitable, so they went abroad one after another, went to the three major film festivals to compete, and then sold them abroad. ”

Lin Xiao, Qin Gang and the others all looked at each other, they really dared to say it!

However, it is also true that the older generation like Li Zhanshan has extremely deep qualifications, and he is a master-level figure himself, so he dares to say it so bluntly.

Even Lin Xiao would not directly criticize those people on such an occasion, don't underestimate those people, after all, those people are the directors of the older generation of Huaguo, and their power should not be underestimated.

And the key is that Li Zhanshan can say that it is because Li Zhanshan has this qualification, and they can only be ostriches if they are scolded, because Li Zhanshan is a grand slam of the three major film festivals.

If it were Lin Xiao, they might say that they couldn't eat grapes and say that grapes were sour, but Li Zhanshan, people had eaten them.

"Okay, thank you Director Li for your wonderful answer, then the next question. The host was also a little surprised by Li Zhanshan's outspokenness, this is definitely an offending word.

"The girl in the third row. "The host ordered another female classmate, who looks quite beautiful, huh.

"I want to ask Director Lin Xiao, we all know that Director Lin's movies can be very popular even in North America, and Director Lin has also gone to North America to shoot several movies before and achieved very good results, so what I want to ask is, how did you do it? I mean, how to deal with the cultural differences between the East and the West, how do you judge, which Eastern cultures can be accepted by Westerners, and which Western cultures can be accepted by us Orientals?"
