Chapter 438: The right time, the right place, and the right people

readx;? People from the China Film Company pointed out that any practice that damages the artistic value of an excellent film does not conform to the two basic principles of 13 blockbusters: that is, it basically represents the excellent artistic level of world films and the advanced technical level of world films.

In the future, any imported film must be deleted and cut in a more scientific, rigorous, and artistically responsible manner.

This is enough to fool the media and the people, but for insiders, it is more like a cold joke.

There is no fixed standard for art, and everyone has a different opinion.

I think the nude shots in "Titanic" are art, and others may think that they are not, how to judge this.

There are various interests and games behind the "no cut", and this time the top management has set the tone, and the people below just need to do it, and there is no need to worry about trouble.

Like "The Story of the Editorial Department" back then, Huaguo TV was worried about something going wrong and was reluctant to broadcast it.

After the high-level speech, "The Story of the Editorial Department" became popular all over the country and became a classic.

So, it's not a matter of artistic standards, it's that no one is willing to take risks, and would rather not broadcast than make mistakes.

Moreover, domestic policies are not dead and cannot be changed once they are decided, but they are flexible and many things can be discussed.

There are some controversies in a movie, find the relationship above, intercede, maybe it will be reviewed, policy is one thing, the key is to rely on people to mediate and fight.

Huaguo is a humane society, and this flexible way of dealing with it has always existed, and a word from the leader is more effective than anything else.

Even so, "Titanic" is not really uncut, and the person in charge at the bottom was worried that there would be trouble afterwards, so he secretly cut three seconds of frontal nudity on the film.

This concern is quite normal.

There is no classification system in China, and there is no restriction on the audience entering the theater, even children can watch "Titanic".

In the United States, the Motion Picture Association of America considered Titanic to contain catastrophic scenes related to danger and violence, scenes of nudity and sensual enjoyment, and some language discomfort.

The film is of a special counseling level, and children under the age of 13 should be accompanied by their parents, and some of the content is very inappropriate for children.

The Motion Picture Association of America acts as the country's film censorship board, and they rank every film released in the United States.

After giving this rating, American theaters will not let children under the age of thirteen watch "Titanic" alone, and parents will also have concerns when choosing to watch movies with their children.

But in China, as long as you have the money to buy a ticket, you can go to the cinema and watch a movie.

The ticket price of "Titanic" is not cheap, the theater in the capital is 50 yuan, the second and third-tier small cities will not be less than 30 yuan, and the group ticket of the unit is half price, that is, 25 yuan.

Many units issue movie tickets for "Titanic" to employees as benefits.

In comparison, the ticket price of the newly released domestic movie "A Sigh" is fifteen yuan.

The duration of "Titanic" is three hours, and "A Sigh" is only one and a half hours, plus the huge investment, the ticket price of fifty yuan should be a relatively reasonable price.

In 1998, the average wage of workers in Beijing was 1,200 yuan, while the salary of ordinary workers was only about 1,000 yuan.

This year, the internship salary of college students after graduation is 800 yuan, and the salary of turning regular after half a year is about 1,200 yuan.

This refers to the general situation, and the salary package of graduates varies from one major to another.

In this kind of income background, spending fifty yuan to watch a movie about how a boat sank is not acceptable to ordinary families, not to mention that the street is full of pirated CDs, and you can take it home for five yuan.

Even if the upper echelons set the tone and the movie has an Oscar halo, for the Chinese people who have always been diligent and thrifty, fifty yuan is not a small amount, and a family of three is one hundred and fifty yuan.

No matter how you think about it, "Titanic" will not be too popular in China, and pirated CDs are a big killer.

"A Sigh" was affected by piracy, and the box office was only 25 million when it was released.

It is an indisputable fact that Chinese films have always been infringed by piracy.

However, many things cannot be viewed with common sense, and a movie is popular naturally has its reasons for being popular.

"Titanic" was released in China in early April, and on April 10, the national media "Huaguo Daily" published the news of the release of "Titanic".

This is like a signal, and the domestic media have carried out intensive coverage of this film.

The entertainment page can basically see the news of "Titanic", some people are discussing human nature, some people are discussing art, and some people are discussing the industrialization of film.

"Titanic" is a product of the Hollywood film industry system and an outstanding achievement of the film industry.

In Popular Cinema magazine, an article was published that "Titanic" was the century summary of the film industry.

Domestic theorists who support the theory of the film industry believe that this film is the most extreme embodiment of Hollywood industrialization, and as long as we adhere to the road of film industrialization, we will be able to make this kind of Hollywood blockbuster in the near future.

This obviously coincides with the intention of the General Administration to establish Huaying Group.

With the praise of the high-level, the support of the General Administration, and the shouts of the media and film experts, it is difficult for "Titanic" to become popular.

"Titanic" is a good movie, but if you have to say how literary it is, it is nonsense.

One of the reasons for its success is that it is popular, there are almost no cultural gaps, and audiences in every country can understand and resonate easily.

This alone is not enough to make it so popular in China, the support of the upper echelons is the key.

Otherwise, "Titanic" will be forced to go down the file for a month after its release, and it would be good if the domestic box office could get 50 million.

This is exactly the right time, place and people.

But it has caused a misunderstanding to domestic filmmakers, both domestic audiences and filmmakers, who think that "Titanic" is a typical Oscar movie, and making such a film has a chance to win an Oscar.

This has led many domestic directors to learn from "Titanic" in order to impact the Oscars.

In fact, if it weren't for the high box office of "Titanic", the Oscar judges would not have paid attention to this movie at all.

Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan went to see "Titanic" to feel the frenzied movie-watching craze of Chinese audiences, and at the end, there were many crying audiences in the theater.

"It's too big, and there are a lot of kids in it. Mu Shanshan said worriedly.

"It's like receiving physiological and hygiene education. Lin Zixuan teased.

It is conceivable that many years later, when these teenagers recall "Titanic", they may not remember the disaster of the shipwreck and what the story is, but they will definitely remember the naked body of the heroine. (To be continued.) )
