Chapter 838: Accent

After the premiere, there is a special press conference, which is the practice of the festival. The same is true for "All the Nights in the World", after the premiere, the main creator of the crew came to the press conference and was interviewed by the global media.

Zhang Ran knew that he was sitting here, and many questions would come at him, but he didn't want to steal the limelight from Zhang Jingchu and them, after all, this was their movie. Therefore, as soon as Zhang Ran came up, he told everyone that this movie was only a name, and he didn't even participate in the script, and everything was the result of Zhang Jingchu's efforts. His meaning is obvious, I'm just a soy sauce maker, if you have any questions to ask Zhang Jingchu and them, don't come to ask me.

However, when it came time to ask questions freely, the reporters still threw the first question to Zhang Ran: "May I ask Director Zhang Ran, what do you think of Zhang Jingchu's movie, is there anything you are not satisfied with, and if so, what is it?"

Zhang Ran glanced at the reporter who asked the question and said with a smile: "It's really good, very good, at least much better than my first movie." As for whether there is anything dissatisfied with the movie, answering this question is very risky, I am afraid that if I answer this question, I will be locked up on the balcony by Jingchu at night!"

The reporters in the audience burst into laughter, Yu Feihong and Yan Bingyan also snickered, only Zhang Jingchu glared at Zhang Ran, slandering in her heart, naked slander, you deliberately ruined my ladylike image!

Zhang Ran saw Zhang Jingchu glaring at him, and pretended to be nervous: "I am now risking being locked up on the balcony to answer this question, if you want to talk about the shortcomings of this movie, I think it is a little more sensational, it would be better if you were calm and restrained." ”

Zhang Jingchu is the director of the film and the heroine, so she is naturally the focus of media attention. A reporter asked: "Jingchu, hello, I am your fan, and I especially like this movie." We all know that you are a very good actor, and you won the Venice Film Festival last year, why did you suddenly become a director?"

Zhang Jingchu smiled slightly and explained: "Actually, I don't suddenly want to be a director, I am a director, before this, I also filmed "Love Has an Afterlife" with Sister Feihong, when filming with Zhang Ran, I often worked as an assistant for him, and I stole a lot of teachers from him, and I plan to be a director." A few years ago, after I watched "All the Nights in the World", I was very moved and felt that this is what I wanted to make, and after that, I bought the rights and started to prepare for the film, and finally made it this year. ”

Another reporter stood up and asked, "Jing Chu, you are the heroine, why don't you let Zhang Ran play her husband?"

Zhang Ran thought that Zhang Jingchu would say, this is my movie, I hope to complete it independently, and I don't want Zhang Ran to point fingers. Unexpectedly, when Zhang Jingchu heard this question, her expression suddenly became serious: "In 05, Zhang Ran had a car accident and was very seriously injured. At that time, I was really frightened, and I was thinking at that time, if Zhang Ran had any three strengths and two weaknesses, then I would not live. Therefore, I really don't want anything to happen to Zhang Ran, even in the movie. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Ran's heart was very warm and moved, and he turned around and hugged Zhang Jingchu hard.

After Zhang Ran let go of Zhang Jingchu, he thought that he could be a quiet beautiful man, and he played soy sauce quietly on the side, but he didn't expect someone to throw the problem to him again. A reporter with a Taiwan accent got up and asked: "I am a reporter from the Taiwan Central News Agency, I would like to ask Director Zhang Ran, can the film be released on the mainland in the future?"

Zhang Ran felt inexplicable, I am not from the General Administration, why did I come to ask me, and said: "Why do you ask me, and why do you ask this question? Isn't the ECFA all signed, as long as the Taiwan film passes the censorship, it can be released in the mainland!"

The reporter immediately said: "When you and Jiang Ping were in conflict with Chen Zhikuan, it didn't mean that your movies didn't want to enter China yet, so many artists in Taiwan were very worried that their future movies would not be released in China!"

Zhang Ran had a dog's expression on his face, I went to his uncle, when did I say that, Jiang Ping didn't say it! Chen Zhikuan is so shameless, these people who engage in politics simply don't want Bilian! He directly retorted: "I didn't say this, I don't know if Jiang Ping said it afterwards, but at least he didn't say so at the time." However, what you said reminded me that after the peak of the century, we will definitely not show films of Taiwan independence elements, nor will we cooperate with Taiwan independence artists. ”

Zhang Ran was shocked when he saw the reporter who asked the question, and continued: "You are a reporter from Taiwan, then I also have a few questions I want to ask Taiwan, the movies I have made have not been able to be released in Taiwan for so many years, and the movies starring Jing Chu cannot be released in Taiwan, I want to ask, will our films have a chance to be released in Taiwan in the future? The suppression of us can end? In addition, we know that there are almost no restrictions on the mainland for artists to perform in the mainland, but mainland artists come to Taiwan to communicate, film, Performances are always subject to all kinds of suppression and difficulties, and even today there is no way to carry out commercial performances, so I want to help mainland artists ask, when will the suppression of mainland artists in Taiwan stop, and when will everyone be able to go to Taiwan for normal commercial performances?"

The reporters who were present were a little stunned, Zhang Ran is too good to say, we haven't said that he suppressed Taiwan artists, he pretended to be pitiful first, saying that he and Zhang Jingchu were suppressed by Taiwan, and also said that mainland artists were suppressed, which is too shameless!

Immediately, a reporter from Taiwan stood up and retorted: "But your movies have never used Taiwan artists, this is also suppression?"

Zhang Ran said lightly: "No, isn't Jay Chou an actor from Taiwan Province, China? He is my friend, his movie "The Secret That Can't Be Said" was invested by me, our company's "The Wind", in which Bai Xiaonian is played by Taiwan actor Su Youpeng, and our Asian Cinema Academy also has many students from Taiwan, such as Chen Zhengdao, whose movie "Happiness Quota" has been released in the first half of this year. Is this called repression?"

The reporter retorted: "Using Jay Chou is when you are not popular, you haven't used it since you became popular, many people say that you have prejudices against Taiwanese actors since the Golden Horse Awards in 04!"

Zhang Ran knew that the reporter from Taiwan was here to find fault, and said coldly: "It may be ugly for me to say this, but this is the truth." In my opinion, most of the actors are not professional enough and lack professionalism. Ang Lee's "Lust and Caution" originally wanted to use Taiwanese actors, and a large-scale audition was held in Taiwanese bend, and almost all young actors in Taiwan participated in the audition, but they couldn't use it at all, and their acting skills were not good at all. We know that the basic skills of actors include the voice table, in which the lines can be said to be the actor's half life, and the accent is part of the line skills, we look at American movies and television, there are a large number of actors from the United Kingdom, Australia and other places, they all have their own accents in life, but when acting, they will speak fluent American English, without any trace of accent, this is professional.

When the vast majority of actors are acting, whether they are from Beiping, Modu, or even from the Northeast, they are all bent in the stage. If you have just come to the mainland to develop, you can understand the accent, but many Taiwanese actors have been developing in the mainland for several years, or even more than ten years, and still speak a Taiwanese accent. This is a problem with professional quality! Don't say that the accent is difficult to change, and the accent is difficult to learn! It's just an excuse. How much time do these people spend talking on the issue of pronunciation, do they hire a professional line teacher, do they ask a special line coach to correct it during filming? Not at all! Some mainland actors also have this problem, no matter where they play, the accent is the same, this is not an unprofessional performance, lack of professionalism.

When making a movie, I don't care who you are, no matter where you come from, if you're not professional enough and you can't meet my requirements, then I will definitely not use it. If this is a prejudice, then I admit it, I have a prejudice against unprofessional actors!"

After the end of the conference, Zhang Ran's remarks were naturally hyped up by the Taiwan media, and they all complained about their artists, and some of the green-leaning media even claimed that if the Taiwan artists spoke Mandarin, they were selling Taiwan.

In the mainland, the vast majority of netizens applauded Zhang Ran's words, lines are the basic skills of actors and part of the quality of film and television works, if you play a Taiwanese person, there is no problem with using a Taiwanese accent, but if you play someone from other places, or a Taiwanese accent, the audience will feel very dramatic.

At the beginning of this year, Zhou Jie wrote a blog called "Forgetting the Past Means Betrayal!", talking about the various faces of the actors in Taibend when he returned the bead crew. After this blog post was issued, Zhou Jie received almost no support, but was scolded, and he was simply said to be a sinner who stirred up cross-strait relations.

Zhang Ran didn't get scolded much, after all, Zhang Ran's influence is not comparable to Zhou Jie, and the fans are very strong. However, there are a lot of people who jumped out to wash the floor for Taiwan stars: "People haven't learned Mandarin since they were children, and it's difficult to change their accents", "I really don't understand that people have to take care of all their accents?", "Ouch, people have worked very hard", "Taiwan's tone is very gentle and good".

When overseas media reported on the media, the conflict between Zhang Ran and the Taiwan reporter was also mentioned, but the content of the report was mainly on the movie itself. "All the Nights in the World" was unanimously praised by the media, praising the film as full of appeal and a rare masterpiece of Chinese film.

In "All the Nights in the World", Zhang Jingchu tells us about the pain of life at the bottom from the perspective of a female intellectual with a wounded heart, showing the fragility and helplessness of weak lives, expressing the author's keen concern for the suffering and living conditions of the low-level civilians, and expressing deep sympathy for the marginalized people who bear the tragedy. - "Variety"

As Zhang Ran's girlfriend, Zhang Jingchu's film is obviously influenced by Zhang Ran, and this influence is not the picture style of the film, but the thought and soul of the movie. Zhang Ran's films have always been 'hopeful in despair', and the same is true of Zhang Jingchu's films. The whole movie tells about the misfortunes of many people and describes a lot of difficulties, but the whole movie does not stop at suffering, but completes the transcendence of suffering. - Asahi Shimbun

"All the Nights in the World" is a movie that lives to death, there are a lot of deaths in the movie, the death of her husband, the death of a miner, the death of Jiang Bai, the death of Chen Shaochun, the death of Yunling's mother, after seeing countless deaths in this world, the heroine transcends the indulgence of her own misfortune and is tempered into the power of life to die. β€”β€”Dong-A Ilbo
