Verse 268 of the main text: You have the power

Next chapter

Although Jiang Zhiqiang felt that I was overly truthful, he still agreed with it on the whole. ”

Speaking of which, probably seeing Duane's strange face, Xie Jin temporarily stopped his remarks, looked at it, seemed to think for a while, and then asked Duane: "In your opinion, what is Hollywood like?"

Duane shook his head in response to his question, "I don't know. ”

What is the situation in Hollywood, Duane really doesn't know, in fact, the vast majority of Chinese may not know, including Duane who is in the entertainment industry.

Originally, too, Chinese films are dominant, and everyone is tired enough to think ******** how to fight for a piece of food on this big cake, who still has the heart to care about the development of films in other countries? Anyway, they are not as good as Chinese films, and there is nothing to care about.

"Even the top figures of the younger generation of directors like you have never cared about this issue, which shows the whole current situation of the Chinese film industry,"

Xie Jin sighed lightly when he said this, which made Du Yin feel that he and the old man in front of him were indeed not on the same level.

Du An's only concern is whether his films can make money and how he can make more money, while Xie Jin is concerned about the big issue of the future of Chinese films. And in China's current film industry, there are many people like Du An, and people like Xie Jin are almost invisible.

However, Duane still didn't understand one thing, so he simply asked: "Elder Xie, what do you say have to do with whether I want to make that movie or not?"

Xie Jin's thinking was really jumping, but fortunately, his mind was still clear, and he finally didn't understand the original intention of the conversation between the two, and went around in time. But Xie Jin didn't intend to answer him like this, but brought the topic up again, "Of course it's related, don't worry." I told you these things just to let you know that although the Chinese film industry looks prosperous and thriving, it is really impossible to maintain its position as the world's number one in the world if it continues to develop under the current situation. ”

Duane was noncommittal about Xie Jin's words: If Chinese films are really in such a dangerous situation, then how come the media with a keen sense of smell have never reported on it? I have never heard anyone say how much better Hollywood has developed, and it is the first time I have heard it here in front of Xie Jin.

Xie Jin seemed to see his thoughts, pondered for a moment, and said, "You don't seem to believe it, then I'll talk about something." ”

"Do you know how you, the youngest best director, came to be?"

Duane was stunned.

Of course, this best director was given to him by the Huabiao Award, but listening to Xie Jin's meaning, there seems to be some elusive meaning in the Huabiao Award for him?

Xie Jin continued, still jumping as before, and shifted the topic directly from Duane's best director to Lu Chuan: "Lu Jian won the Huabiao Award for Best Director the year before last, and at that time, he was the youngest best director in the history of the Huabiao Awards. This result will occur precisely because Jiang Zhiqiang realized that the Chinese film industry needs to make changes, and he hopes to make this change with his own strength, otherwise before the change, Lu Chuan was not even 35 years old at the time, and it would be impossible to win the best director. ”

Duane keenly captured the key word "35 years old" and asked tentatively: "The rule of the Huabiao Awards is not to award the best director to directors under the age of 35?"

Xie Jin didn't answer his question directly, and bypassed, "Actually, this alone can support what I just said, if it weren't for the pressure from the outside world, how could the China Film Art Committee make such a change? And last year's incident is even more powerful proof." ”

"When Lu Chuan won the best director, he was at least over 30 years old, but what about you? How old were you when you won the award? Not to mention 30, not even 25 years old! In the past, you couldn't even get a nomination at your age, but you won the best director, and your film swept so many nominations and awards at last year's Huabiao Awards, which was simply impossible before, if you didn't really feel the pressure from the outside world and really want to make changes, how could the Huabiao Awards do such a thing?

Duane wanted to say "I got the youngest best director because I made a good movie", but this sentence went around his throat and came to his mouth, but he couldn't hold it back, and finally swallowed it back and swallowed it in his stomach.

Society is realistic, and many things are really not judged by strength alone, and Duane understands this very well, so it makes him feel powerless.

Although he was quite calm when he won the youngest best director, and he seemed to have just won a similar "Best Director at the Li Jiatuozi Rural Art Festival", but there was an undercurrent in his heart, and the excitement was wave after wave: but he was excited not because he won the award of the youngest best director, but because he conquered everyone with his own ability with his works, and people had to admit his strength, which is what he cares about the most.

But now he knows that every qiē is bullshit.

As if realizing that what he said just now was a little frustrating, Xie Jin added: "Of course, you still have the strength." The Film Arts Development Committee is not a fool, and audiences all over the world are not fools, your "One Flew Over the Asylum" is indeed very well made, so you can win the best director, and your film can win so many awards at last year's Huabiao Awards, and the hard power of your film is the premise. ”

Duan smiled, nodded, expressed his relief, and asked, "But what does what you're talking about now have to do with whether or not you want to make that movie?"

Only what Xie Jin said is true, and what happened in the past is more in line with the objective laws of social operation and human nature, so Du Yin began to believe Xie Jin's previous remarks Of course, there is also a possibility that Xie Jin and Jiang Zhiqiang were wrongly judged, but this possibility is really not very large, after all, Jiang Zhiqiang is behind the entire China Film Art Development Committee, which can be said to be the most authoritative institution in the film industry, and this institution will not be untargeted, right?

"Of course it does,"

Xie Jin has been talking for so long, he is a little thirsty, and his spirit seems to be a little tired, and he is indeed old. However, after he picked up the water in front of him and took a sip, he cheered up a little and continued: "For dealing with this situation, Jiang Zhiqiang's method is simply to promote the new generation and cultivate follow-up strength. ”

Du ane nodded, his best director is probably the product of Jiang Zhiqiang's response to this situation.

"But I don't agree with his approach, I think he did it to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause,"

Xie Jin said this, and suddenly the words changed again: "I am watching how the Chinese film industry has come from scratch all the way to today, I have seen many rules come into being, and even many industry rules were born under my hands, so I believe that no one in the current circle knows better than me about the understanding of the Chinese film industry." ”

"At this stage, the production model of the Chinese film industry has to be a director-centered system. This system has played a strong role in the past few decades, Chinese films can develop into the world's first, and the entire film industry industry norms based on this system have played a vital role, but now the times are different, just like the development of human society from slavery to feudalism and then to the current capitalist and socialist systems, no system can be used forever, everything has the limitations of the times, and the industrial system is the same, and now it is its own industrial system that hinders the development of China's film industry。 ”

Duane listened silently and did not say anything.

Xie Jin paused at this point, smiled bitterly, and said: "But although I can see this, I don't know how to do it, how to change it, because these things can be said to have been born under my hands, and my thinking has been fixed on it, so although I know that Jiang Zhiqiang's method may not be useful, but I can't think of a better way, but now it's different." ”

Du An noticed that Xie Jin's eyes on the other side suddenly sharpened and stared at him, and he said almost word by word: "I think you have the ability to change this qiē." ”

Du An stared at Xie Jin's eyes, unable to speak for a long time, and only felt ridiculous for a while.

It's like one day when he was walking on the street and was suddenly stopped by an old beggar, who also took out a book of martial arts secrets and said to him, "Little brother, I see that you are very talented, and I will hand over the important task of maintaining world peace to you."

What the hell is this!(To be continued.) )
