Chapter 438 Grading System

It is a well-established fact that the film classification system certainly has its advantages. [Big/Book/Bag/Small/Say/Net.] Look at foreign countries, and then compare with domestic ones, there are a lot fewer genre films.

There are few horror films, the scale is too large, and they are not allowed to be released, and the scale is small and not very interesting, which makes this type of movie a very embarrassing existence.

Of course, some people say that movie ratings promote "violent gore" and "obscene sex/eroticism" to the detriment of teenagers. But this may be established abroad, and there is a radio and television station in China.

These plain corpse bosses can determine the country in one word, it is a grade, and they can't get around the threshold, so there is no need to worry about it. It's not a matter of one sentence.

It's just not classified, with the urine sex of domestic piracy, what can't be watched? What can't be bought? From Oriental romance action movies to Western horror and violence movies, what can't be bought?

"I've always been puzzled by this question, movie classification, let me declare, I was born in a new society and grew up under the red flag. ”

After Ye Luo finished talking about the topic, he looked at the people around him, and if everyone frowned, he wouldn't talk about it.

It's just that no matter Zhang Heping, Han Sanye, or Feng Xiaogang, Feng Xiaoning and others, or Xu Fan, these female streamers, except for an accident, there is nothing else, but they are very looking forward to the expression of his next words.

So, continue.

"Hahaha-"

This witty remark made the crowd laugh. Ye Luo's face did not change, and he continued,

"I'm not advocating 'violence' and 'eroticism', but many domestic and foreign movies are not suitable for children to watch at all.

This is not good for minors, it is not graded, parents have no reference, and they will encounter a lot of embarrassing scenes after taking their children into the cinema.

In this regard, I don't think there is a movie theater that will discourage it at the door, so it's good not to pull people in. That has now created such a situation, jade is not distinguished, it is unknown, and there are children present who can see it or not.

There are a lot of great directors here, and it may be a little offensive to say this, but it is true that there are some movies that you know are not suitable for children. If there is a grading, I believe it will always be better for the child.

In addition, the classification is also carried out within the framework of the main theme, and for movies that simply use 'violence' and 'sex/eroticism' as gimmicks, they cannot be released.

Whether it is in line with the main theme, the leaders of the General Administration can still make the final decision, and it is no different from now. Moreover, piracy is so rampant now, and it is difficult to supervise all aspects of the Internet, and many things cannot be stopped.

Instead of covering your ears and stealing the bell, taking off your pants - wearing the emperor's new clothes, it is better to put it on the bright side. We can't clean up the turbidity, but we can't burn it together—"

"Huh-"

Hearing Ye Luo's timely retraction, everyone present laughed, especially women. This is a kind of respect, but also a kind of self-love, which is very popular with everyone.

"You kid, I'll serve you today!"

Feng Xiaogang has always been known for his mouth, but compared with today's Ye Luo, he is also one point behind.

"Uncle Xie Gang, I agreed!"

Ye Luo hugged his fist, and without waiting for everyone to finish laughing, he said,

"Maybe there will be another ending after grading, taking Denmark as an example, after the grading of movies in the 60s, it was only banned for a few years, and sexual/erotic products were almost extinct.

In other words, not many people regard 'erotic/erotic violence' as their main interest in life. People want to see it, and you can't satisfy a little bit of obscure art that is shown in the cinema.

As for us, we don't have a rating, but now many directors make some itchy things in the film, and it is very common to play side balls. It's very unfair, it's unfair to the child.

Many of our mainland imported blockbusters in the United States are classified as PG-13 or R-rated, and most of the films we make ourselves in the United States are also classified as R-rated, which is actually not suitable for children under the age of 13.

Juvenile delinquency, a lot of which is influenced by film and television.

The film classification system is not to promote, but to protect, not to see it as a flood beast, but as a wall against the flood beast.

After all, no matter how hierarchical it is, it is still a system, and the system is controlled by people. Human self-control has always been due to itself, not to censorship.

Na, these are my little opinions, a family's words, it is difficult to generalize, if the seniors here can chew it, it will not be in vain for me to fight this time. ”

Ye Luo sat down after speaking, he was not afraid that these words would cause dissatisfaction with the big guy, this was not a formal meeting, just communicate with each other. The most important thing is that he is young, and it is not easy to blame others for being dissatisfied.

If the General Administration held a meeting, he didn't bother to say it, looking at those people, he was not in the mood, second, he was not interested, third, he didn't want to waste saliva, and fourth, he didn't want to play the piano to the cow.

"I'm in favor of it! No rating, for us film creators, is the most uncomfortable, censorship is one-size-fits-all, either pass or not, this is a big harm to film creation.

Third Master, Director Zhang, Director Tong, your General Administration has to study it!"

No rating, the director is the most uncomfortable, Feng Xiaogang lives up to the name of Xiaogang/Cannon, after Ye Luo finished speaking, he began to fire support.

The three people he called, the first one needless to say was Han Sanye, and the last two were Zhang Haitao, deputy director of the General Administration and deputy director of the Management Committee of the Radio, Film and Television Group, and Tong Gang, another deputy director of the General Administration.

Of course, that's all there is to it, and everyone here knows what the biggest obstacle to non-classification is.

It's not the box office, it's nonsense to say that bringing the audience back to the theater is the current industry need, and it's the Jedi breakthrough of the movie, although mainland movies are thirsty/hungry for the box office like a desert.

It is not a violation of classification and the mainstream concept of Chinese literature and art "praise, publicity, and shaping", and hundreds of films are released a year, and everywhere you see it is praise.

The most important thing is power!

If you don't grade, it's a one-size-fits-all approach, or you don't. The bigwigs can kill you if they don't go well! After grading, they can only give you one more level on the level, but the impact is limited.

In other words, the hierarchical system is tantamount to the emasculation of the power of the bigwigs. It can be said that the difficulty of grading is difficult to go to the sky.

In addition to power, that is money, since ancient times, power and money are not separated, and when power is divided, some gray income is gone. When "My Sassy Girlfriend" was released in the mainland, Ye Luoke gave a gift.

This is the occasion, otherwise Ye Luo would not have bothered to saliva. But that's it, Ye Luo still said it under the framework, putting the leadership power of the General Administration in the first place.

You have the ultimate say in what you say, and you can still say anything.

Why? I'm afraid, if you deliberately let these people lower their power for the sake of the film system, then do you want to mix in the circle in the future?

Not to mention that the relationship between Han Sanye and Ye Luo really reached the point where he and his colleagues could support him?

Just kidding! How could it be? The two were just close to each other and needed each other.

Therefore, the premise that Ye Luo talked about is to protect young people, which is carried out under the existing system and the power of the maintenance leader, not to mention the deletion of foreign films.

In this way, you will not offend people.

"The current movies are really mixed, and Xiao Luoti's is not bad. Yes, it's good to have such knowledge! Xingdong, it seems that you can't specialize in beauty.

It's just that you can't eat a fat man in one go, and the United States doesn't implement it after a long discussion.

For teenagers, some violence is needed and some needs to be eliminated. There are political issues, as well as film management issues and social issues. ”

Zhang Heping took over the conversation, what he said was patriotism, military war movies are a must, but they can't be simply attributed to the genre of violence.

And when Wang Xindong is mentioned, it is because this film classification system was first proposed by this person, and it was proposed at the CPPCC two/meeting last year.

It's just that the result, obviously, was skipped by the official general reply.

"Haha, what does this prove, it proves that my insight is extraordinary. Ye Xiaowangye is the one who opened the company to Hollywood, and his vision is naturally not bad. The fact that we can think of it together shows that I'm also amazing!"

"Dong Ye can't say that, how can this bit of ink of mine compare to you?"

Wang Xindong is a big screenwriter who receives a State Council allowance, Ye Luoke didn't dare to bear such praise, and hurriedly stood up and said.

"The advice you two made is good, and what Ping Ye said is also good, it is complicated, not just because of a certain aspect. Okay, let's talk about Forbidden City Pictures. ”

Han Sanye's current chairman of the General Administration still has to hang the word "deputy" before his title, and when it comes to the issue of power, he does not dare to be good at it.

With a pouting mouth, Ye Luo guessed such a result, and it was over.

But he thought wrongly, that is, his identity, he is young, but his words are not small, which still causes many people to think. After it was published in the newspaper, it was supported by more fans.

This is a later story, hold it for now.

The banquet is good, all the best cooks are invited, Ye Luo does not pretend to be an identity, he is a martial arts practitioner, and he can eat very well. The gift money is all up, so I have to eat some back.

"You kid, awesome!"

was eating, Zhang Guoli and Feng Xiaogang came over and said.

"I'm talking nonsense, people are soft-spoken, if you can finally promote the grading system, it will have to rely on famous directors like Uncle Gang.

If you shoot more restricted-level productions, you won't be able to release them in China, but when you make money abroad, do you think the bigwigs of the General Administration are blushing?"

In the final analysis, it is a matter of power and money. The total annual box office in China is only one billion, and in the United States, eight billion, or dollars.

If there are really a few "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" levels, these bigwigs probably can't help it.

After all, the little money they stuck in can't be compared with the profit of the blockbuster, just now Han Sanye also looked for Ye Luo, saying that in the future, the investment in blockbusters should be considered.

Why? Haven't you seen the box office hit of "Ocean's Eleven"!

So far, it has reached a box office of nearly 500 million US dollars, and Phantom has invested 15 million and made a profit of more than 20 million, equivalent to nearly 200 million yuan, equivalent to one-fifth of the domestic annual box office.

Can the General Administration not get pink eye, the mainland box office is one billion a year, and no matter how much they can pick it, it will only be tens of millions.

Think about the Phantom, a private company earns more than their General Administration, a gap of several times, how can you calm down?

It's just that when Ye Luozhen gave them the cup of "Infernal Affairs", Han Sanye, Zhang Haitao, and Tong Gang had no confidence again. If you don't shoot it, who knows if you can make it?

"This general bureau is a little tight, do you think you can get on the phantom first?"

This is what Tong Gang said, and Han Sanye and Zhang Haitao agreed with each other, and there was no one to the extent of shamelessness.

This means that it will be said after earning it. If he loses, can Ye Luo still ask the General Administration for money?

Of course they won't agree, these three people said together, who is the favor? Ye Luo is not stupid, and he has to find a horse to make a sycophant, and he can't shoot blindly.

In the end, Han Sanye proposed to invest 5 million, and the two sides reached an intention.

As for whether the circle is not perfect, Ye Luo is not clear, and it will definitely be a loss if he cooperates with the General Bureau, but he doesn't know if he can get favors.
