Chapter 630: Such a Director......
Volume 1 Chapter 630 Such a Director......
Next chapter
The black director is a well-known director in the country. As a cutting-edge member of the tenth generation of Chinese directors, he has made several works that have won awards abroad.
Of course, these works only won awards abroad, and they were not released in China at all, and there are too many dark sides and gray areas involved, so they will not pass the review at all.
If you want to say that the film censorship system in China is relatively strict. At least in the eyes of those in Hollywood, that's pretty strict.
The annual quota system for the introduction of Hollywood films is enough to make the six major (or seven) Hollywood film companies look at the giant cake of Huaxia, and can only sigh with admiration, and then tear up to compete for the dozen or twenty places.
However, not all people in China can understand the protection system of this censorship for local Chinese films. They will only feel that the market in China is not open enough and too strict, but they will not think at all, are these Hollywood movies really just movies?
Lin Dong has read relevant books and knows that the Chinese film industry has experienced several major crises.
One of the more famous ones is in the early days of reform and opening up, because of the opening up, so the foreign films are also relatively lenient, and there are many blockbusters that come in.
If, according to common sense, a country that is in ruins and a film industry that is in ruins has not yet risen up and regrouped, a large number of external films have rushed in, then I am afraid that the domestic film industry has not yet risen, and there is nothing left that has been impacted.
Fortunately, although the opportunity was given to them, he was not on their side at that time. At that time, there were not only Hollywood movies from the United States, Eastern European movies, but also Japanese movies.
At that time, China and Japan were in the best period in that century, and the Japanese government provided a large amount of interest-free loans to China in order to compensate for the damage caused to China by the war of aggression against China. At that time, the people were also quite friendly to Japanese "friends", of course, except for the old people who had been violated.
After all, after opening up, people found that the original country had developed to that kind of Cheng dรน!
And what followed, including Japanese cultural products, people who experienced that era know how popular Japanese film and television works such as "Manhunt", "Blood Coagulation", and "Volleyball Girl" were at the beginning!
And the directors who made movies such as "Red Sorghum" in Huaxia at that time were also touted to the sky by the Japanese.
Of course, in fact, they are also not well-intentioned. is just like the current touting of the tenth generation of directors by France and Britain and other countries, borrowing the hands of the Chinese people to wantonly exaggerate the dark side of the Chinese people.
The reason why that "cultural invasion" failed to succeed was that everyone did not expect that the final hero turned out to be "piracy"!
Yes, piracy!
At that time, China was in ruins, various laws were not perfect, and the crackdown on piracy was not as strong as it is now (and it is also not big enough now). Whether it is film and television works from Japan, Hollywood or other countries, they have been besieged by overwhelming piracy before they have been rolled out in theaters. If you want to talk about the impact on ordinary people, it is absolutely huge. But when it comes to profit, it's basically none.
Although Hollywood is tasked with helping to promote the "universal values" of the United States, those people are businessmen after all, and they will not do anything without profits.
Therefore, that wave of attacks, in the eyes of those who understand, was menacing, but it retreated quietly. In the eyes of ordinary people, they only saw a large number of foreign film and television programs flooding the market, but they quickly disappeared and disappeared.
Later, with the gradual improvement of the domestic system, with the quota system, the door to prevention was blocked, although many people complained, but the real discerning people, can still see that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Turn around and talk about this black guide.
Huaxia's censorship system for domestic films is very general, which has been a matter of dirt for a long time. It is hoped that film censorship can follow the example of Europe and the United States and implement a classification system, which is the dream of filmmakers.
However, for a while, there was no hope for this thing. It's just a matter of thinking about it.
The predecessors of the Black Guide and their realms have actually experienced similar things. With enthusiasm, first shoot those shadowy sides that are not known to the public in China, these films may carry the director's hard work, ambitions, struggles, ideals, etc., but, to be honest, this type of film, I am afraid that no matter which country, it is unlikely that such a large-scale screening of such films will be allowed in your own country.
For example, do you go to Hollywood to make a film about the mass murder of Indians ordered by Washington, the first president of the United States? Although this incident is a historical fact, Lao Mei will never let this kind of film appear on the public screen.
Or film a school shooting case in the United States and a case of a police officer killing a black man for no reason, there should be no superheroes in it, just shoot something like this, do you see if you can pass the trial?
In the same way, no one wants these small probability events to mislead the public into thinking that their world is all like this.
Therefore, as for the black director's films, as for what type of films, Lin Dong just watched them, and didn't pay attention to them anymore. It is impossible for this kind of film that has not passed the review to be screened on a large scale on the mainland. Only those film companies in Europe and the United States who are committed to promoting the backwardness of China and "popularizing science" to their own citizens what the "truth" in the society of China is like will pay attention to such films.
In the past, the generations of directors would be widely reported by the domestic media because they won a certain unit award at a similar Cannes Film Festival in France, or they would walk the red carpet, and then their fame rose in China, and then they started filming feature films, gaining fame and fortune.
Although the black director has also won a unit award in France, but now with the improvement of the transparency of the news, many people in the industry have understood that the so-called French love for Chinese films is just to show the bad side of China, showing how much they attach importance to "Chinese culture", in fact, most of these so-called award-winning content will not be broadcast in the French media at all, and the "impression of China" accepted by the French people is still politics. The government gives them those things that they regulate.
And because of this, although the black director "won the award", his reputation in China is not great, and the films he made, to be honest, are really not watched by many people in this era when fast food culture is flooded with the Internet.
Therefore, the black guide came to Lin Dong.
He and Lin Dong have already talked twice, hoping to put their movies on the Bifang virtual platform.
How is this possible? (To be continued.) )
