Chapter Ninety-Four: Intention and Career Change

Although money is a vulgar thing, people are inevitably vulgar. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"If you were given a box office of tens of millions of dollars, you would be vulgar. Zheng Xixi rolled his eyes at Uncle Ge and relieved Wang Yao's embarrassment.

"I don't know these things, I heard from Mr. Zhou, last time there was a "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" box office tens of millions of dollars. Wang Yao said embarrassedly.

"Teacher Zhou, Gongzi Zhou?" Feng Xiaogang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Well, she's a teacher at our school. Wang Yao said with a smile.

"That movie does have a box office of tens of millions of dollars, but it is a Hollywood blockbuster, and the box office of our country is now a year, and there may be more people. Feng Xiaogang said with a smile.

"Hey, don't be discouraged. Uncle Ge waved his hand, "Doesn't Jiang Wen also have a box office of tens of millions." ”

"Can the dollar be compared to the dragon coin?" Feng Xiaogang glanced at him.

"Aren't they all tens of millions? Uncle Ge muttered dissatisfied.

"Your script is quite interesting, although I don't understand it very well, but I think the content in it is very good, and the irony is very humorous. Wang Yao smiled, "I feel that the plot is not the same as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which is interesting, and the idea is also good." ”

"High. Feng Xiaogang gave a thumbs up, "I didn't find the intention when I got the book myself, but you found it all at once." ”

"Hey, don't run people. Zheng Xixi frowned and snorted softly.

Wang Yao blinked, "Isn't the idea sarcastic?"

After Wang Yao finished speaking, everyone else was silent for a moment.

"That's right. Uncle Ge peeled peanuts and nodded.

"There's really nothing wrong with that. Mr. Ma also nodded, "Are you thinking too much?"

Feng Xiaogang was a little confused.

"Yes, irony, it runs through the whole play. Liu Zhenyun's eyes also lit up.

"But in 97 years, "Party A and Party B" the year before last, "See You or Leave", last year's "Endless", I have been satirizing for three years in a row, and I have been a lotus for three years, and now I come to this set again, can the audience still buy it?" Feng Xiaogang rolled his eyes, "Of course I know that sarcasm is the intention, but you have to give me a rod for sarcasm." ”

"I've been talking about cross talk for almost a hundred years, and I haven't seen people's aesthetic fatigue, so I'm too lazy to innovate. Mr. Ma snorted softly.

"Don't squeeze me with this, I have satirized the confused unemployed youth, the struggling unemployed youth, and the simple and innocent young and middle-aged people in the past three years. Feng Xiaogang grinned, but his tone was full of self-deprecation.

"You also satirized the past 20 years of reform and opening up. Uncle Ge chuckled.

"What's the matter? You feel that you can't be grounded anymore and are going to heaven?" Mr. Ma glanced at Feng Xiaogang and smiled.

"Otherwise, what should you do if you give me a trick and see that this film market is depressed and will not go to heaven again?" Feng Xiaogang frowned.

"But Longguo is just a down-to-earth director, if you go to heaven, then there will be movies for ordinary people in the future?" Mr. Ma said.

"Sir, this era is different, it's about to be the 21st century, see? Feng Xiaogang pointed at Wang Yao and said, "The audience in the future will be them, and if I shoot Beijing's hutongs, bricks and stone tiles, vests and trousers, can they understand it? Do they know that in addition to Tiananmen Square, there is also Di'anmen, Zuo'anmen, and You'anmen? They don't know, so ah, the times are different." Feng Xiaogang smiled.

Feng Xiaogang's words silenced everyone, Wang Yao blinked, and he didn't dare to speak.

"Then what do you want to shoot?" asked Liu Zhenyun with a frown.

"Dragon Kingdom movies have to go the way of Hollywood. Feng Xiaoyu said in a deep voice.

"You let a great country imitate a great industrial country. Mr. Ma sneered.

"I know you look down on these, but to develop, you have to be industrial. Feng Xiaogang said righteously.

"Not what you think. Zheng Xixi suddenly said aloud.

Feng Xiaogang paused for a moment and didn't speak.

"You don't have that awareness. Zheng Xixi chuckled, "Is it the above and down documents?"

Uncle Ge glanced at everyone, and said with a smile, "Hollywood blockbusters are good, simple, rough, and visually beautiful, Xiaogang, I still have to be the protagonist, remember to match me with a bikini girl." ”

"Don't mess around. Mr. Ma poured a full bottle of wine for Uncle Ge, "What's the matter, I'm not going to make a comedy?"

"Filming, comedy is my life, but I have to change the angle and keep up with the pace of the times. Feng Xiaogang said with a smile.

"Director Zhang holds the best cultural film resources in his hands, where is Director Chen's literary film resources behind him, what do you have when you come here?" Liu Zhenyun pointed to Uncle Ge and asked.

"He's probably going to lean on Home Alone. Mr. Ma smiled.

"I want to pay tribute to Jim Carrey's Man on the Moon. Feng Xiaogang sneered.

"I'm starting to take the path of a great tragedy. Zheng Xixi smiled, "It doesn't feel as good as "Home Alone". ”

"I think this book is very good, an industry that ordinary people are curious about at present, and by the way, it can also promote the influence of the film industry. Feng Xiaogang said smoking a cigarette.

"Fortunately, a big director of literary films from the American imperialists, who uses fame to ridicule the tragic story of the little people?

"Alas, it's really a talent that I don't meet, not only do I not meet it, but I also want to drive it crazy. Feng Xiaogang's eyes were a little red, and he seemed to be a little angry.

"The idea is a tragedy, and this movie experience is not very good. Liu Zhenyun shook his head and sighed, "Your specialty is to make the tragic core of literature and art more down-to-earth, not to become more desperate, otherwise why would everyone look forward to your New Year's stalls so much?"

"It won't be long before this earth is in place. Feng Xiaogang's face was full of bitterness, "It's hard to ride a tiger now, comedy is too difficult, especially with so many people's expectations, I can either break and stand up, or break the can." ”

"Are they all broken?" Zheng Xixi frowned slightly, "What are you shooting in the film market now, what are you watching, what are you afraid of?"

"In theaters throughout the year, the box office of mainland movies is less than 100 million, what do you think I'm afraid of? Xiangjiang Baodao movies are not counted, they are originally strong, but Hollywood has swept away nearly three or four hundred million yuan a year, and after this accounting, people all over the country are watching foreign movies. Feng Xiaogang said in a deep voice: "What do you say I'm afraid of? Waiting for movies to follow the West like pop music?"

"This movie was originally a Western play. Mr. Ma took a sip of tea, "But you don't want to think about how much you can watch movies now? ”

"So I have to transform. Feng Xiaogang said with a smile.

"I didn't let you transform, you should be able to shoot two films a year, you have to leave a way back. Zheng Xixi smiled, "Besides, isn't everyone in transition, and the sixth generation of directors is gradually rising." ”

"Hehe, it's okay if you don't mention the six generations, come out and block four, what's the matter? As soon as I mention this, I'm upset, and no one can catch me if I want to throw it down. Feng Xiaogang sneered.

"Literary and artistic youth, it is understandable that to change the world with ideals, you have to give them time. Liu Zhenyun said with a smile.

"This time is not given by me, it is given by the audience, Xiao Jia is very good, but unfortunately there are no domestic audiences to buy it. Feng Xiaogang shook his head, "As a senior, you have to pave the way." ”

"You are also a big feeling. Uncle Ge picked up his wine glass and smiled.

The two of them touched a toast and drank it.

Mr. Ma touched the Buddha beads and glanced at Wang Yao, "Do you understand?"

Wang Yao shook his head in confusion.

"I don't understand, what do you think of the story I just said?" Feng Xiaogang waved his hand.

"The story feels very good, I feel very touched, because I think it can directly reflect the domestic culture, and then slowly be Westernized, the main supporting role of the foreign director in the early stage is quite large, if it can be filmed, I believe it can make many people feel it." Wang Yao whispered.

Feng Xiaogang was stunned, and came to be interested, "Tell me." ”

"The theme I heard from the story is irony, the story of a dragon emperor, it is necessary for a foreigner to shoot, and this Western foreigner also tries to interpret it with oriental thinking, the magic is that he can't shoot it, I think it's great, the difference in culture can't understand each other, it's normal that he can't shoot it, of course, the premise is that he is an artist with a realm. Wang Yao licked the corners of his mouth

"It's the first time I've heard of the concept of comedy funerals, but it reminds me of the decline of Eastern culture, which really needs a comedy funeral in the current era of Western-style culture. ”

After Wang Yao finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

"How did you get so tall? Zheng Xixi blinked his eyes wide, chuckled and pinched Wang Yao's cheek, "The purpose of that foreign director is to satirize Hollywood's industrial film market, as well as comedy funerals, and it is also a mockery of the commercial film trend of selling gimmicks, you can actually see the cultural background, and your realm is too high." ”

"It's me who is vulgar, it's me who is vulgar. Feng Xiaogang was a little embarrassed, "I knew that this story could be raised so much, so I changed my mind." ”

"As a disciple of Mr. Qigong, he can already see the third realm. Liu Zhenyun also looked at Wang Yao with admiration.

"Did I say the wrong thing? The corners of Wang Yao's mouth twitched, and he said embarrassedly: "I have watched a "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", so I also watched it from that perspective. ”
