Chapter 419: The Third Time (Plus 1)

"Reporter Liu is you again? Hehe...... It's a pleasure to meet you, Reporter Liu is getting more and more beautiful? Wang Meng came to the reception room and saw the text interview reporter this time, and it turned out to be Reporter Liu, who had interviewed him twice before. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Hello Director Wang, every time I see you, it's different, I remember the first time was after "This Man is from Earth". The second time is when your work "You at the Table" is about to be released, and now the third interview with you is the release of the $130 million blockbuster "The Matrix". Are you changing one at a time? And it's getting more and more powerful. Reporter Liu said.

There is no compliment in the words, for reporter Liu, it is a sincere feeling.

"Huh...... Let's encourage each other. Wang Meng sat down and said, "Why did you come this time?" Reporter Liu: You say, right? ”

"You can do whatever you want, in fact, you don't need to add and embellish the interview, many of the questions you said are the best answers." Reporter Liu said.

"Okay, I still know how many pounds and taels I have. Maybe Reporter Liu just looks at me well, right? However, it can't be boasted anymore. ”

"Okay, let's get started." After speaking, he nodded to his assistant.

The recording was opened, and reporter Liu quickly returned to the attitude of a professional reporter.

"Director Wang, it is understood that this "The Matrix" continues your previous philosophical science fiction theme, and even more in-depth this time. Does this mean that you have a deeper understanding of the art of film? ”

"It can also be said that sometimes imagination is always in the imagination! Only when you practice it will you understand the difficulties. Cinema is known as art, and art sometimes has layers and sometimes no layers? Can you only say that your art is aimed at that person? Some people can see art, while others don't care. Since my debut, I have made a name for myself, and I have always considered myself a director who can tell stories, because my scripts are very good, and I can present them through the dialogue and the actors, and I am proud to say that "The Matrix" may lose the best script and story I can come up with. As for whether there will be a better one in the future, it will depend on the future. ”

"How happy are you with The Matrix?" Reporter.

"Yes, it's currently my most satisfying work."

"Is it difficult to understand the connotation of the artistic level? Is it very deep? "Journalists.

"Not necessarily, it's just how to understand it......" Wang Meng said with a frown.

If it was said a month ago, Wang Meng's answer must have been difficult to understand and profound, but since he started to work on "Forrest Gump", he realized that the previous one was nothing?

The previous self, using stories and plots to process art. But "Forrest Gump" uses lenses and memories to perceive art.

The art of processing is always inferior to the natural art of perception.

Of course, it can't be said that "The Matrix" is like this, there is no art?

You can't say that, but you have to compare it with whom. Compared with some classic art films, "The Matrix" is processing art in the form of science fiction.

And true to the classic art films? Wang Meng currently thinks that there is no need for 'processing', just the lens and memories to understand.

Of course, you have to be more serious and say, isn't the artistic subject matter also filmed? Also processed?

In that case, needless to say, it belongs to the tip of the horns.

Take one of the most vivid examples-"Black Brother Empire" has a sense of layering, through the beginning of confusion, the sudden realization in the middle, and the indomitable rise in the back, there is a plan to make you understand.

But? "Forrest Gump" has always been very gentle, and has been slowly telling a story, and there is no obvious 'layering'. Until the end, it is for you to comprehend the feeling in the blandness, and how is this blandness displayed? It is reflected through the freeze-frame and coherence of each frame.

If you still don't understand, then watch these two movies carefully, you may have watched enough of "The Matrix" a few times, but "Forrest Gump" receives a different receipt every time (of course, it is impossible to be idle, watch it dozens of times at a time). Especially if you watch it separately at different ages in your life, it's definitely different.

To put it in a martial arts name, it is; One: "Rampage, domineering!" One: "The road is simple, back to basics!" ”

Reporter Liu on the side seemed to hear the sound outside the strings and said, "Director Wang, what do you mean?" ”

After Wang Meng heard this, he knew that Reporter Liu had misunderstood, misunderstood that he was not satisfied with "The Matrix", and felt that there was a flaw.

"Not really. I'm satisfied, I'm thinking about two styles. For example, "The Matrix" is to practice the top outer door kung fu, and the golden bell cover iron cloth shirt has reached the highest level of this kind of outer door kung fu. ”

"Then you mean, there is a better inner door kung fu, that is, the kind of internal strength, and what I say is a metaphor?" Reporter Liu has a good head, and he actually understood what Wang Meng meant.

"Wrong again, it's better not to exist. Each one is a classification of good movies, but it is artificially defined, and I think the internal strength is better. In fact, there should be no hierarchy. Besides, it's not appropriate to compare external kung fu with internal strength, it's just an analogy. Wang Meng corrected, not wanting to study this matter anymore.

This interview made reporter Liu very confused, and felt that Wang Meng was a little confused.

However, Wang Meng also has suffering.

Just like in the market, some people just like commercial movies, and some people just like literary movies.

Can you say that it is good, like Wang Meng, in the past, business was supreme, or business and art were combined. Now it seems that there are different views on art-themed films, and I think art films are also good.

Can you say it's not single-minded? Just like some people like to watch some commercial movies, but they also like to watch some literary movies. Like both, it's even more incomprehensible, isn't it?

So! To sum up, no matter what the movie is, as long as it looks good, it is a good movie, and there is really no need to deliberately divide it.

The two are like the black and white yin and yang fish of Tai Chi, which are inseparable and cannot be separated.

As for Wang Meng's entanglement, it is the entanglement here, so it is very unsolvable. Not to mention that "The Matrix" is a combination of business and art, and it is not easy to divide the special sister.

It doesn't work when it comes down to commercial films! Because the philosophy and moral in it are profound.

It doesn't boil down to art movies, look at the special effects and fight explosion scenes, properly for the adrenaline rush, and it's enjoyable to watch.

Is it hard to do?

Because it's hard to do, then don't do it, let's talk about it!

"Director Wang, there must have been a lot of interviews like this? Q: What are your goals? Can you say a little bit here? Reporter Liu.

"Huh...... Indeed, there are many questions that ask what is the goal? Or maybe my prediction or something. Let me tell me, right? Wang Meng said: "My goal is a bit excessive, I hope that "The Matrix" can become a classic, or a mark of the times, also as a Chinese director, I think he will create a new height of Chinese films, whether it is the box office or influence, or even all ......."

"Shhh Reporter Liu took a breath of cold air, he didn't expect the target to be so big.

"Then I wish you success, and I believe you will succeed." Reporter Liu said.

As such a reporter, unlike interviews on the market, she will not be excited because Wang Meng said this. Then add oil and vinegar to report out.

That's not her journalistic style, and it's not what a fan does to an idol.

After that, it will be processed and released, which may still surprise fans, but there will be no trace of Wang Meng's arrogance between the lines.

It can only be a manifestation of self-confidence and good wishes.

"Director Wang, with the swaggering of my country's economy, the film market has continued to expand again and again in recent years, do you think the spring of Chinese films has arrived?" Reporter.

"Yes, Reporter Liu should also be able to smell the breath of the rise of this movie, with the ...... I think movies will become more and more ordinary, will be accepted by more people, and more people will enter the cinema, and there will be more and more categories of movies, plus the expansion of online novels......" According to experience, Wang Meng expressed his opinion.

Unbiasedly, I said it to the point, this is the biggest golden finger of the reborn person.

"Of course, under the premise of the recovery of the film market, film and television companies must also show courage, and the attitude of excellence will never be outdated...... The audience is no longer the one you can coax at will, and the popularity of the Internet will make a movie or ruin a movie......"
