Chapter 61: Let's talk about the movie
"Second, people don't look down on you! You're not famous enough!"
Ma Dong said unceremoniously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
āā¦ā
You're so right, I'm speechless!
Shen Lin was a little annoyed, on the one hand, because he was rejected, and on the other hand, because this period of time was too smooth, and he actually became arrogant!
People have their own plans, why do you suddenly reach out and say, 'Come, buddy pull you', who treats you as a green onion?
"What's wrong? Do you feel underestimated?"
Seeing that Shen Lin was silent, Ma Dong quipped.
"I think the reason why Mr. Guo rejected me must be out of the first consideration, and it will never be the second point!"
Shen Lin's tone was very determined.
"Okay, okay, you're famous!"
"It's a must!"
"I ask you something, do you think I'm a good guy in "Chinese Character Hero"?"
"Huh. ā
"Carry forward traditional culture!
"I'm really convinced of you, we are now in an online video company, not CCTV!"
Ma Dong understood what Shen Lin meant.
The online video is aimed at young netizens, not the general public.
The whole thing is too high-end, and it is really unattractive!
"Alas, I'm the title sponsor, I'm going to do it, I'll find them to see if there's room for maneuver. ā
As he spoke, Ma Dong walked in the direction of the office.
"No, didn't you say you wanted to invite me to dinner?"
"What are you eating? Go to the cafeteria by yourself, by the way, you hurry up and record two episodes of "Linxing", they told me that there is no manuscript saved!"
"Okay, leader, you can get busy!"
"Get out!"
ā¦ā¦
In fact, Shen Lin originally wanted to remind Ma Dong not to make the show into four different ways, since he decided to promote the program of traditional culture, then try to go to the high-end side, you want to be high-end and high-grade, and you want to rely on vulgar dramas to win attention, how can there be so many good things?
However, after all, this is Ma Dong's show, and it is really bad for him to meddle so rashly.
Moreover, it was only through the trial of this show that Ma Dong really understood the preferences of netizens, and began to prepare for the most classic variety show of iBirk - "Wonderful Story"
This trip to love Strange, and also has the intention of recording "Departure".
In the last recording, Shen Lin was absent, there was no way, far away in the mountain city, I really couldn't catch up with the recording, the program team had to play a few unedited tidbits, and the number of broadcasts dropped sharply!
Seeing that it's almost Friday, I have to hurry up and record an episode.
The recording took place in the coffee house of the iStrange Building.
"I'll eat first, or it will be a little indecent to burp then!"
Holding a cup of green tea, Shen Lin sat in a corner where the light was not particularly bright.
Twenty minutes later, with a 'Let's start!' the cameraman pointed the camera at Shen Lin.
"First of all, I would like to announce a piece of good news, the box office of our "33 Days of Broken Love" has exceeded 400 million, thank you for your strong support!"
"To be honest, I didn't expect it to be so successful!
"Okay, let's not talk so much, lest someone say I'm cheap, let's talk about the movie!"
Get to the point.
"By the way, before I get to the point, let me say something. I found that many people on the Internet have opinions about me, saying that I don't like HK and Taiwan! A few days ago, I met a director who also advised me not to do anything against Guangdong and Taiwan, so I wondered, where do you see that I don't like HK and Taiwan? I just don't like some of the people in it!"
"Someone chatted with me privately on Weibo, saying that I was prejudiced against Hong Kong and Taiwan actors! How is it possible, my idol is Xingye, and among my favorite actors is Liang Jiahui, how can I not like Hong Kong and Taiwan actors?"
"As a director, I have one of the most basic principles for choosing actors, lines!"
"Let's not cite Tom Hanks's accent in "Forrest Gump", let's talk about Brad Pitt, who is an authentic idol actor, but in order to star in "Inglourious Basterds", he changed his authentic New York accent to a dirty southern accent, the difficulty of which can be imagined!"
"What about some of our Hong Kong and Taiwan artists? They can't even speak Mandarin, let alone speak some local dialects. ā
"Lines, must be the basic skills of actors! But many Hong Kong and Taiwan actors don't even have the ability to speak at the very least! It's not that I look down on these people, you can't even speak your lines clearly, and you still want me to use you? Isn't this nonsense!"
"Let's explain it clearly this time, don't say that I am prejudiced against Hong Kong and Taiwan actors in the future! Aren't you doing something!"
"Okay, let's talk about this issue. I'm going to do a long-term series, a series about movies. ā
"In the first issue, let's talk about HK movies!"
"When it comes to HK films, I guess you should all know that HK used to be known as the Hollywood of the East, and the HK film industry is exported to Southeast Asia and East Asia!"
"HK Films was about 30 years from the 60s to the mid-to-late 80s of the last century, and this era gave birth to superstars such as Li Xiaolong and Chen Long, including "Jingwumen", "Tangshan Brother", "Police Story" and other representative works. ā
"But nowadays, it's hard to see the emergence of pure HK movies with great influence, so many people say that HK movies are in decline. ā
"There is a point of view that the brilliance of HK movies is not because of the degree of excitement, but because our viewing level was too low back then, and we have not experienced the baptism of Hollywood blockbusters, so we take it for granted that HK movies are wonderful! Therefore, the level of HK movies back then was not as high as we imagined, but we gave him a high evaluation. Today, HK movies haven't regressed much, but relatively little progress!"
"I don't really agree with that, I think HK movies did have been brilliant!"
""Tangshan Big Brother" and "Jingwumen" in the 60s, the Shaw Brothers Company in the 70s, and the competition for hegemony in the 80s have brought us too many classic movies. ā
"Even in terms of the current level of movie-watching, these are rare movies!"
"Therefore, HK Films was indeed a big step ahead of the entire Chinese film industry at the beginning!"
"So, how did they mess up?"
"First of all, let's analyze why HK films are brilliant? This is inseparable from HK's economic development, political changes, and social changes. What was the scene of HK in the 60s? The economy began to take off, commerce and trade gradually prospered, the population increased rapidly, the culture became more and more diverse, and the regional influence rose rapidly, coupled with the commercial capital represented by the Shaw Brothers Film Company to invest in the film industry, the HK film industry was nourished by abundant funds, and it rose rapidly, both in terms of output and quality. HK once became the world's second largest film producer after Hollywood, and established its own unique influence in East and Southeast Asian countries. ā
"Why the HK film in East Asia and Southeast Asia was so strong, this is the national conditions of these countries at that time, Japan and South Korea did not form a large-scale film industry for a long time, and the strength of Southeast Asian countries is honestly a little worse than HK, first of all, the economic take-off time is ten years late. In addition, the large number of Chinese in Southeast Asia also made it possible for the rapid and universal acceptance of HK films. ā
