Chapter 606: Conquer the Director Students
On May 27th, after his lecture at Vassar Women's College, he toured to Emerson University in Boston, New Grand.
Emerson College's main campus is located in the Theater District in downtown Boston, with two campuses in Los Angeles and the Netherlands. He is more famous for his majors in media and film.
The most famous alumni are Jay Leno, a famous talk show host in Magnesium Country.
Jay Leno once invited Li Feiteng to participate in his TV show "The Tonight Show", but he didn't have time and resigned.
In fact, the program "Jay Renault Show" is very influential, and it is an old NBC TV show, and what makes Li Feiteng remember the most is the special interview with Obama.
The fact that a president can participate in this show is enough to see the charm and influence of this show.
At the very least, so far, no Chinese have received an invitation to "The Tonight Show" to appear on this show.
After Li Feiteng came to Emerson College this time, he didn't expect Jay Leno to return to his alma mater and personally invite himself to "The Tonight Show".
"Mr. King Lee, our studio is in downtown Boston, not far from here, you only need to go over tonight, 25 minutes, you can do a special interview live broadcast. Jay Leno said with a sincere and serious invitation.
Li Feiteng looked at his chubby round face, a very witty expression, and smiled happily: "Okay, what time is it at night?"
Jay Leno smiled happily: "The live broadcast starts at 19 o'clock, you try to get to the radio station around 18 o'clock, after all, we need to do some preparations." ”
"No problem. Li Feiteng nodded again. I agreed.
"Okay. See you in the evening!"
"See you in the evening. ”
Speech is a science. Different students and listeners have to talk about different content and answer different questions.
The students of Emerson students are more likely to ask about the knowledge of media and film, which actually makes Li Feiteng full of embarrassment, although he founded Tengda Media and invested in a lot of films, but in this area of knowledge. Weak indeed.
At the church, a directing student asked, "Mr. Lee, as the producer of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, do you have any different views and deeper understanding of this film?"
Li Feiteng knew that the students would ask about the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" during their speeches.
This film won the Oscars for "Best Cinematography", "Best Art Direction", "Best Original Score", and Best Foreign Language Film this year, and director Ang Lee also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Director a year ago.
Li Feiteng is a co-investor in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". and co-producer, the winner of this film. It has been very shocking in the world, and it has been more than two months now, and media reporters will ask these questions during interviews.
"There is no in-depth understanding to talk about, Ang Lee is indeed the most outstanding Chinese director in Hollywood at present, and I can only briefly say my opinion,
In this movie, the jade dragon played by Zhang Ziyi is a bright line, representing a symbol of Western culture, showing an infinite expansion of desire, symbolizing that people should be open to freedom and restrictions, and pursue unlimited desires/desires.
Li Mubai played by Zhou Yunfa and Yu Xiulian played by Yang Ziqiong are dark lines, representing the symbols of our oriental culture, symbolizing the forbearance of desire, and the life thinking of Chinese conservative connotations.
We can see from the film that Yu Jiaolong does not hide himself at all, in order to chase his own desires/desires, the possession/desire for the Qingying Sword develops into the possession and conquest of Li Mubai, and then expands to the complete subversion of his own life.
Everything she did was to make herself happy, starting from stealing the sword, to helping the blue-eyed fox, eloping with the leader of the horse thief, running away from marriage, making a big fuss about the rivers and lakes, and injuring Yu Xiulian, who cared about herself...... Zhang Ziyi completely ignored how much harm her behavior would bring to her relatives and family, as well as Li Mubai, Yu Xiulian and others who cared about her, just wanted her to be happy.
In fact, Zhang Ziyi's character, taking off itself, is a cowboy in the western part of the magnesium country, so you like her very much, right?"
After listening to Li Feiteng's narration, the directors in the audience all stood up and applauded, they really like Zhang Ziyi very much, but they have not been able to figure out the root of the side role, after his explanation, they suddenly realized.
"King Lee, you are really a wise man, why didn't we think of it, she is really a western cowboy, she can do whatever she wants, it's so cool!" said the director student who stood up just now said happily, he is now enlightened.
Another directing student stood up and said, "King Li, what is the matter with the role of Li Mubai, why doesn't he dare to play that woman?"
When Li Feiteng heard this, he laughed twice, and he continued to explain: "Brother Zhou Yanfa played Li Mubai, and he is a typical old oriental scholar in our Huaxia. Bai Zi's brother died for him, and he later fell in love with his brother's fiancée Yu Xiulian. If modern people, or you, brothers are dead, and you are with your wives, it really doesn't matter, right?"
"yes, what's this!"
"What a beautiful girl, I'm on it. ”
Li Feiteng shook his head and said: "This role represents the etiquette of our traditional Chinese culture, our ancient Chinese women regard chastity and reputation as more important than life, there is a saying called 'men and women do not kiss', in our ancient China, there is an uncrossable gap between men and women, for example, in ancient Chinese weddings, husband and wife may not have seen each other before the wedding, and the first time of ancient Chinese women, may be more important than life, they will even pay the price of their lives. ”
"Oh! I see, oh my God! It's so scary, so miserable, you can't go to bed before marriage!"
"That's right, touching the hands and touching the buttocks was a crime in ancient China, and they would also be severely punished, and even lose their lives because of it. ”
Li Feiteng thought for a while and said with a smile: "With the help of such a movie story, director Ang Lee aims to express to us that in the collision of cultural exchanges, the exchange and integration of Chinese and Western cultures is inevitable, and only the new ideological and spiritual seeds generated after the integration of Tongguò can lead mankind to the glory of the future." ”
When the speech reached this point, the time had almost passed, he did not speak, just bent down and bowed, and the students in the audience stood up one after another, applauding and shouting goodbye.
It was another wonderful and in-depth speech, and the students were conquered by Li Feiteng's erudition.
"Oh, by the way, you must not forget to open Facebook and follow me. When Li Feiteng was about to step down, he deliberately turned around and smiled.
"Of course!" shouted the students. (To be continued......)
