Despite the controversy in the media, audiences still flocked to the cinema and there were scenes of queuing up to buy tickets, wanting to see this big-budget martial arts film. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The audience is broadly divided into three categories.

One is lovers of martial arts films, influenced by Xiangjiang martial arts films, and want to find the feeling of fighting swords and rivers and lakes from movies, and being happy and revenge.

Martial arts is a fairy tale for adults, and martial arts films have a large market in China.

The second category is readers of the original novel, who only entered the cinema because they read the novel.

There is also a category of fans such as Chen Daoming and Yu Feihong, this drama gathers a group of famous actors from the mainland, and it feels dazzling just by looking at the names on the poster.

Most of the actors of Good Dreams have played roles in it.

The publicity in the mainland puts the actors in the first place, highlighting the importance of the actors, which is different from the publicity strategy in foreign countries, where Li Yu is the selling point.

The appeal of celebrities should not be underestimated, and some viewers feel that it is worth the ticket price just to watch the stars.

In terms of the pricing of movie tickets, the specifications of Hollywood blockbusters are not used, but according to domestic films.

The general ticket price of a domestic film is about 10 yuan, and if the length of the film reaches two hours or the work of a famous director, the ticket price will rise to 15 yuan.

Hollywood blockbusters are priced at more than 20 yuan in China.

Ticket prices are not expensive, and there are no pirated CDs on the market for the time being, which is the main reason why audiences flock to cinemas.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" exceeded 800,000 at the box office on the first day in the capital area, and reached 4 million five days later, and the box office results in major cities in China are eye-catching.

According to this trend, it can be on par with the box office of the sequel to "Desire".

However, Lin Zixuan knows that this is unlikely, and once the pirated disc comes out, the audience will decrease sharply.

The "Desire" sequel is a kind of nostalgia that has an ongoing impact.

The audience of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" just watched it freshly, and the follow-up motivation was insufficient, so they could only rely on the box office accumulation in the first ten days, and they couldn't be too extravagant.

The marketing department of Good Dream expects the total domestic box office to be around 40 million.

Relative to the box office, the controversy about the film in the media has intensified, with statements such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a movie for Westerners".

This undoubtedly stirred the nerves of some viewers and made them feel slighted.

Li Yu said a paragraph on this issue when participating in the interview of "Shanshan Interview".

Movies were introduced to China from the West, and when they first entered China, they were called "dioramas".

The early Chinese filmmakers were basically learning Western shooting techniques, and then combined with the local culture and production conditions, a kind of locality was gradually produced.

This is what is now known as Chinese-language movies.

Chinese films are originally the product of the combination of Chinese and Western, why do they still have to divide the East and the West now? Those predecessors in the film industry would not be so conservative.

If they had been conservative and had not learned Western filming techniques, there would have been no Chinese films now.

Whatever it is, it can be used as long as it is suitable.

Maybe it would be better to shoot in a foreign way, and it would be better to shoot a Chinese film, so why stick to any habitual methods?

As for saying that I am shooting for the vast market in the West, it is not fair.

To be fair, every time I make a film, I work hard, think a lot, and take care of what I can.

Of course, everyone wants to succeed, and movies can be understood by more people, there are more exciting practices, and there can be better returns, so I will look over there.

My biggest consideration is still the issue of face, things should be taken out on the table, not too rough.

It is not easy to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western cultures, and I tried to do some pioneering work, but I may not do it well, causing misunderstanding.

But that's not what I intended, and I can only do it here with my ability.

This is Mu Shanshan's second interview with Li Yu.

For the first time, they talked about Li Yu's upbringing, and this time they focused on the filming of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and its impact, asking a lot of sharp questions, and also taking the opportunity to answer the audience's doubts.

Why is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" so adapted, and what do Western audiences think of this film.

Li Yu responded one by one.

At present, it is not possible to make an accurate judgment on "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", it will take time to precipitate, and it will be clear until more than ten years later that its status in Chinese films will be clear.

During this period, Jiang Wen returned to the capital from Cannes.

His film won the Grand Jury Prize at this year's Cannes Film Festival, but he was greeted with no flowers, applause, and not even reported in the mainland media.

What awaits him will be a penalty notice from the Directorate-General.

The matter became a big fuss when the relevant departments of China asked the organizing committee of the French Cannes Film Festival to withdraw the film, and the refusal of the Cannes Film Festival undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

At this time, there was no shortage of people who fell into the well, and they thought that Jiang Wen was going to be unlucky.

Jiang Wen's popularity in the circle is not very good, and it is easy to offend people when he speaks, especially reporters.

When he was interviewed, he always told the truth and didn't play cards according to the routine, and the reporter felt that Jiang Wen was deliberately making things difficult.

For example, a reporter asked Jiang Wen that a certain star said that he was very familiar with you, and the filming cooperation was very pleasant, like brothers.

"Ah, that's what he said? I didn't know him very well, I didn't feel anything, it was just a normal cooperation. Jiang Wen replied.

The thing in the circle is that you praise me, I praise you, and it's no wonder that he can't offend him when he says this.

Jiang Wen belongs to the type of person who likes him very much, and people who hate him are extremely hateful.

Although the media can't report the news of Jiang Wen's award, other news doesn't matter, so there was an attack on Jiang Wen, and Jiang Wen was counted in several major crimes.

is like a drama bully, playing a big name, not cooperating, catering to the West, etc., and even talking about his private life.

Jiang Wen first had a sensational underground affair with Liu Xiaoqing, and then married a French woman and gave birth to a daughter, which is considered evidence of Jiang Wen's closeness to the West.

It's easy to discredit a person, it's enough to mislead readers by reporting such half-truths.

Some reports are facts, Jiang Wen does like to change the script in the crew, and there are contradictions with the director, some of them are just making things up, Jiang Wen is very serious about acting.

In this sensitive period, it is inconvenient for Jiang Wen to come forward to refute.

He has been in the circle for so many years, has experienced ups and downs, and has no feelings, he is staying at home reading the script of "Hero", wondering whether it is better to play the assassin or the emperor.

The character of the Assassin is too forbearing, and it is not in his temper.

Although the emperor is domineering, he doesn't have many scenes, and there is no room to play it, so it doesn't mean much.

He's thinking about changing the script again.

At the beginning of June, the General Administration issued a penalty notice for Jiang Wen, prohibiting Jiang Wen from engaging in any form of directing work for five years, in addition to writing inspections and paying a fine of 20,000 yuan.
