Chapter 161 of the main text volume, where is the way out

Next chapter

At the end of March, Lin Zixuan went to Huacheng. ≧≥≧

He walked with the people from the Beijing Film Studio, accompanied by Ge You and Xu Fan, and Feng Xiaogang did not go.

Since knowing that Zhang Yimou's film will participate in this year's Golden Bull Awards, many people in the film industry have little hope of winning the award, this is a clear thing, this year's Zhang Yimou will definitely be the big winner.

Otherwise, it would be too inauthentic for the Golden Bull Award Organizing Committee to add Zhang Yimou's film and not give awards to others.

Since he wants to use Zhang Yimou's fame to enhance his influence, he has to give people sweetness.

The Golden Bull Award is a professional award, without reference to the opinions of the audience, and is an award selected by a group of film experts.

It's hard to say whether it's fair or not, in fact, there is no absolute fairness in any film award, it can only be said to be relative fairness.

After reading the list of nominees for this year's Golden Bull Awards, there is no need for judges to belong to various awards, and insiders can basically guess that there is nothing new under the sun.

Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang were nominated for Best Screenplay for "The Great Satan", but there was also a biographical film that was also nominated for Best Screenplay, full of main themes.

The judges' preference for biographical films is well known, and Lin Zixuan and Feng Xiaogang are newcomers in the film industry, and the results can be imagined, which is why Feng Xiaogang doesn't want to go to Huacheng.

They all want to be the protagonists, who wants to run along!

They are better, and the behind-the-scenes personnel have little impact on whether they win awards or not, and they don't rely on this to eat.

Xu Fan is the most depressed, as a newcomer actor who has just debuted, starring in his first movie, fantasizing about winning the first award in his life, what a perfect picture.

If she really won the Best Actress of this year, her star road would be smooth from now on, and she would have no regrets in life.

It's a pity that a Gong Li came out halfway, even if Xu Fan was confident, he knew that there would be no drama this time, and he could only be Gong Li's foil, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone to put this matter on him.

But life is like this, no one can predict what will happen in the future, don't be ecstatic when you encounter happy things, don't be sad when you encounter bad things, and face them calmly.

As a niche literary film, "The Great Satan" can be regarded as a victory if it can receive so many nominations.

There are five nominations, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Best Actress.

This has a lot to do with the theme of the movie, the topic of going abroad is still going on, and the second round of broadcasts of "Beijing People in New York" on provincial and municipal TV stations has ended, which has caused a great impact.

According to the national statistics, the number of people who went through the procedures for going abroad in February dropped significantly, and it is expected that in the next six months, China will enter a period of low ebb of going abroad, and Chinese people are more rational about going abroad.

It is estimated that "Satan the Great" can get so many nominations and social impact, or it is the result of being valued above.

This time, there were not many people who went to the Beijing Film Studio, that is, the producer and director, plus Lin Zixuan, there were only six people.

They also have little hope of winning the award, and only Ge You has the best chance because Zhang Yimou's film is not nominated for Best Actor.

The group took a train from the capital to Huacheng.

Beijing Film Studio is a state-owned unit, and there is a certain limit for business trip reimbursement, which is not to say that they can't afford to take a plane, but they feel that it is better not to be too ostentatious if they have no hope of winning awards.

They jokingly said, let's take the train, and if we can get the big prize, we will fly back.

"In the future, domestic movies will not be easy to make, if you want to have a box office, if you want an award, you have no awards, if you shoot a film, who will shoot it. The producer of Beijing Film Studio sighed.

This is a bit exaggerated, but it also illustrates the predicament encountered by domestic films.

At this time, domestic films are roughly divided into two categories, one is propaganda films, such as war themes and Acura characters who have contributed to the country, which can also be said to be the main theme movies.

There is also a category of niche films such as "The Stubborn Master" and "The Great Satan" that are literary or entertaining.

The co-productions made by Zhang Yimou are generally not included in the domestic films because they use foreign funds, which is why the Golden Bull Awards did not include co-productions in the scope of awards in the past.

It is difficult for such domestic films to attract audiences of all ages to the theater to watch movies.

The box office of "The Great Satan" is good, at least it makes money, and it is difficult to say about other domestic films, and in the past, the state could still organize employees and school students to enter the cinema through administrative means.

Now that the market is open, the entertainment methods of the common people are enriched, and the videotapes flowing in from the Xiangjiang River are welcome.

Whether it is the Golden Bull Award Organizing Committee that wants to enhance its own influence or the General Administration allows private capital to enter the film and television industry, it is all about solving the dilemma of domestic films and prospering China's film market.

The people of the Beijing Film Studio are not complaining that Zhang Yimou snatched the awards that originally belonged to them, but they are a little confused about the future of domestic films and don't know what to do.

In Lin Zixuan's view, part of the reason why domestic movies have no box office and people don't like to watch them is because there are no commercial films in the real sense in China.

Whether a profound art film is good or not, of course it is good, but the common people can't understand it and don't buy it, you didn't make it for the common people in the first place, so you can't complain that the people's appreciation level is too low.

The majority of the audience watches movies for entertainment, not for spiritual baptism.

However, he won't say these words, at this time, Chinese filmmakers are still full of ideals and persistence, walking on the road of art films, they don't look down on Xiangjiang's entertainment movies, thinking that they are nonsense, without logic and plot, just vulgar jokes made together, too vulgar and vulgar.

In the Chinese film circle, talking about commercial films in Xiangjiang will be despised by people and think that they are not mainstream movies.

Actually, they got a concept wrong, commercial films are not comedy films.

Commercial films refer to large-scale productions with large investment, big directors, and big stars, which cater to the public's taste and appreciation level in terms of subject matter and content, and take box office profit as the main purpose.

According to this standard, "Beijingers in New York" is a commercial TV series.

Ge You did not participate in the discussion, he is now in Zhang Yimou's crew, and it is not appropriate to say anything.

The Golden Bull Award was originally an award for self-entertainment in the Chinese film industry, everyone has worked hard for a year, give an award to comfort, and go back to the unit There will be a bonus, and everyone is happy.

Every year, the awards are basically divided among several major film studios in China.

This time, a predator was suddenly put in, and there was competition, but the gap was too big, not competition, but being crushed.

Moreover, Chinese films still have to be in line with world films, and with the current level of Chinese films, the gap is even greater, and many far-sighted filmmakers are thinking about a problem at this time.

That's where the way out for Chinese films is. (To be continued.) )8
