Chapter Forty-Eight: Is the Box Office Really Important?
This is very embarrassing, no matter how you say it, Shen Lin's movies are very popular and have a good reputation, and the awards for director of the year and film of the year are not given to him, and even the screenwriter is not given to him, which is a bit excessive, and the meaning of the target is too obvious!
By the way, the chairman of this year's Directors Guild Commendation Conference is Jia Zhangke. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Even more Nima makes people hurt the egg, and the organizing committee also asked Shen Lin and Xu Zheng to make a summary statement, reviewing 2012 and looking forward to 2013.
Looking back on your sister, looking forward to your uncle!
In order to show that they were broadcasting the whole process, the Directors Association didn't give Shen Lin and Xu Zheng time to match their lines, no, they didn't even prepare their lines, just let them make it up!
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Ying Bao knows Shen Lin very well, this product is very conceited!
In his opinion, you asked me to participate in the commendation conference, and if you didn't give me an award, forget it, and Nima asked me to make a concluding speech?
After making it clear that he finished beating his left cheek, he also asked Lao Tzu to stretch out his right cheek!
"Don't worry, I'm not two hundred and five!"
smiled, patted Yingbao's wrinkled little face, and turned his head, but he was already full of anger!
Xu Zheng took the stage first: "I am an actor, I have never worked as a director before, I am very lucky, I received box office data that surprised me for the first time when I directed, of course, I know that good box office is not the only criterion for evaluating a movie, and, when it comes to high box office, the one who will appear on stage immediately is more convincing than me, come, we welcome Shen Lin!"
Shen Lin Shi Shiran took the stage with a warm smile on his face: "I am Shen Lin, a primary school student in the Chinese director industry, very lucky, I have filmed a few dramas, and the box office is higher than the other, Director Xu just said, the box office is definitely not the only criterion for evaluating a movie, I agree with it, of course, all of you here are professionals, I won't show off this little bit of Taoism!"
"The organizing committee asked me to take the stage with Xu Zheng to make a summary speech, review 2012, and look forward to 2013; to be honest, I don't know how to say it, I am afraid of offending people, I don't say what I think, I feel aggrieved!
Shen Lin still had a smile on his face and put his hands behind his back.
Xu Zheng was a little confused, but fortunately, the bald head Xu's IQ and EQ were not low, so he immediately picked up the conversation, "Come, let's see what movies are worth looking forward to in 2013..."
The big screen shows a bunch of movies, which can be regarded as promoting these films, and the organizing committee must have collected a sum of money!
"Looking back on 2012 and looking forward to 2013, we have reason to believe that Chinese films will have better development!"
It's finally over, the two of them are about to step down, Shen Lin suddenly thought of something: "By the way, let me make a suggestion! In the future, the commendation conference of our directors association will simply be renamed Huayi Internal Commendation Conference, I watched the award-winning movies, all of them are invested by Huayi!"
Ignoring the uproar in the audience, Wang Zhonglei and Feng Xiaogang had an expression of being taken aback, but Shen Lin walked in front of Ying Bao very relaxed.
"You, let you say less!"
Yingbao's face hated iron and steel!
"Don't worry, the last sentence can't be played!"
Shen Lin didn't care.
"Everybody will say you can't afford to lose!"
Ying Bao is still a little worried.
"It doesn't matter! If you can't afford to lose, you can't afford to lose!"
Shen Lin didn't care about these at all, he could already foresee that there would definitely be a bunch of sailors already leading the rhythm!
Sometimes, I know I shouldn't say it, but I still can't help it!
This is the habit of teenagers!
……
As Shen Lin expected, this passage was immediately put on the Internet by some people present.
Then a group of people started a discussion.
First of all, it was brought out by many film professionals for all kinds of criticism, and it was said over and over again: "A movie with a high box office does not mean that the artistic level is high!"
""Chinatown Veteran" won the Golden Horse Award for Best Picture, but lost to "1942"?"
"That's because "Chinatown Veterans" is too high at the box office!"
""Chinatown Veteran" won the Golden Horse Best Screenplay, but lost to?"
"That's because "Chinatown Veterans" is too high at the box office!"
In short, no matter what netizens who support Shen Lin say, the other party should never say that a movie with a high box office should not win the best picture!
Shen Lin didn't prepare to say anything at first, after all, his words at the commendation conference were considered to have fired a map cannon, which offended many people fiercely, and it was right for them to scold them.
And what they said is very reasonable, a high box office does not mean a high level of art!
The super bad movie "Fuchun Mountain Jutu", with a box office of 300 million, can you say that it is a good movie?
However, the more these people talk about it, the more they go too far, and even bluntly say, 'The higher the box office, the worse the movie!'
I can't take it anymore!
"First of all, the domestic film market has become more and more mature, and good movies have become more and more recognized, but those who hold the right to vote are still living in the 80s, believing that feelings and humanity are the benchmarks for judging a film! In this regard, I just want to say that movies are always made for the audience, and if a film cannot make a profit at even the most basic box office, it means that it has not even passed the first test of the market! It should not be discussed at all!
"The box office is not a benchmark to test whether a movie is worth watching, but it is an admission ticket, a movie, if it can't even make the most basic profit, then it is certainly not a good movie! At least, it is not a movie that the people like to see!"
Although many seniors disagree with Shen Lin's words, most netizens agree.
As for Huayi, who was so angry that he jumped to his feet.
Few people care, after all, in the eyes of many people, this is a contradiction within the Beijing circle, and it is better for us outsiders not to mix.
And the media has a tacit understanding that they do not report relevant news, and there are very few people who even discuss it.
Huayi and Guangguang are all giant film and television predators, and they can't afford to offend any of them!
Speaking of which, the light represented by Shen Lin and the Huayi brothers were already in constant competition, and there were many unsightly mutual targets in the open.
Shen Lin's righteous and bright irony this time, although it is a little young and frivolous, but it is also reasonable!
It's just that Huayi's response is a bit confusing, they are actually silent!
If you change the previous Wang Zhonglei, you will definitely not let it go easily, and if you don't do it, you will sue him for slander or something.
It's a pity that Huayi has been constantly right and wrong recently, and the efficiency of the Internet company invested in it has not grown significantly, and it has a lot of cash flow in vain, in addition, the management is constantly fluctuating, Ali, Lay's, and Wanda are poaching people everywhere waving the checks in their hands!
The internal instability is unstable, and Huayi can't spare his hands to deal with Shen Lin's sarcasm.
Besides, what Shen Lin said is also the consensus of many people.
Damn, since the first session, the movies produced by Huayi Brothers have occupied almost the entire commendation conference.
If you make a movie that leaves everyone speechless, that's fine, the key "1942" is too disturbing, it's not a good movie at all!
Feng Xiaogang is definitely not qualified to be elected Director of the Year in 2012!
