Chapter 1709: A Visit to Hollywood
Chapter 1709 Visit Hollywood
Wang Jian said their purpose without concealment, after listening to it, the big director didn't feel ashamed, in his opinion, Wang Jian's words are very frank, since it is an exchange, that is to do a frank exchange, in fact, as a cultural person, he is also reflecting on the world of capital, Wang Jian's words are very profound, worthy of his study.
So the big director thought about it and smiled: "Mr. Wang, what you said has a certain amount of truth, I very much agree, for the way of life of human beings, we have also been exploring, we can't say which way of life is necessarily right, we also have a lot of problems, for these problems, we are also studying how to avoid them, Mr. Wang can also put forward to us if he has any good suggestions." ”
Wang Jian smiled and said: "Of course, the way of life is different, everyone has the right to pursue a better way of life, but your way of life is based on the plundering of other countries, although we have to admit that you are indeed very clever in this regard, let the world's resources to meet your way of life, and then blame other countries for pollution, if there is no other country to destroy resources, how can you meet the current rich life?" You have to reflect on this aspect, because you always think that what you are doing is right and that everyone else is wrong, but you never reflect on where your life comes from, and how can your life be guaranteed without some cheap resources from other countries? ”
The big director has nothing to say, the life of the people of the United States is indeed rich, but the resources of their own country are indeed well protected, they are all imported from other countries, on the one hand, they have technology, but on the other hand, they are consuming the resources provided by other countries, without the supply of other countries, their rich life cannot be so rich.
Seeing that he had nothing to say, Wang Jian stopped discussing with him on this issue, and instead mentioned Hollywood, and proposed to take everyone to visit Hollywood, and the big director agreed to let his colleagues from China visit Hollywood, which is beneficial to their next big move into the Chinese market.
So after meeting with the great director, Wang Jian took everyone to Hollywood to visit and study. After arriving, the big director introduced some history of Hollywood to Wang Jian, and then went in to see some celebrities in the history of film.
is walking, I found that some stars of the United States greeted the big director, looking very respectful, it seems that the situation in this rice country is similar to the situation in China, the star has a halo, but the director is hugely powerful, what is the ambiguous relationship between the director and the female star, it is rumored to be boiling, it is estimated that the situation in the United States is similar.
There are several members of the delegation who still know the female star, and they can still talk, but Wang Jian doesn't know the big star, and the appearance of foreigners is still not easy to distinguish, just like it is not easy for people in the United States to distinguish Chinese people.
Since coming to Hollywood was a request from the other members of the delegation, after the members of the delegation entered, they looked around, but Wang Jian was not very interested, and this Hollywood was true
It's really amazing, a film industry can play so big, I have to admire the minds of Americans, but this is also a part of the commercial ability of the Chinese people, not that the movies they make have much value, of course, there are valuable movies, but if there is no power of capital, it is impossible to spread to the world, and the influence is so great, so culture must be combined with capital, otherwise this cultural influence will not be great, but what about it, after the influence of capital, the culture is likely to be alienated, This is also a contradiction.
"I heard that one of your past presidents was also a Hollywood actor!" Wang Jian thought about it and said to the great director.
The big director said: "Yes, but he is just a third-rate actor, and then he went into politics, and he is not a big star in our Hollywood." ”
Wang Jian smiled and said: "A third-rate actor can do so well as a president, it seems that the president of your country is much better than a star!" ”
After hearing this, the big director also laughed and said: "Mr. Wang, you are right, the president of our country is the best, as long as he can act, although their acting skills are not very good, but as long as they can act, but to say that the most acting in history is not the third-rate actor you just mentioned, but our current President Mihei!" ”
Wang Jian laughed and said, "Do you say that about your president? I think the other person is still good, and he seems very kind! “
The big director smiled: "If he is not the president, I am ready to invite him to act, and he will directly play the president of the United States, which must be very popular with others, and many of the things he promised us are as fake as the movies we acted." “
Wang Jian smiled and said, "Then he will definitely become the most beautiful star in Hollywood!" ”
The two talked and laughed, Wu Zhanmei followed beside him, he listened to Wang Jian's words, and felt that Wang Jian was really a reckless person, but Mi Guoyan liked such a person, and he would say anything to him, which was really interesting.
At the end of the visit, Wang Jian wanted to understand how Hollywood operated, and the big director reported the situation to him, Hollywood's movies have also gone through nearly a hundred years of development, and the film industry is already very mature in terms of technology, Huaxia is definitely lacking in this regard, and their box office market has always been very high, which is related to the level of economic development of their country, if the economy does not develop, naturally no one wants to spend money to watch movies in the cinema, Now the film market in China is also very prosperous, which is related to the current economic development of China.
In addition to the industrial technology of films, they have a mature market mechanism, and a movie is often a big production, which is definitely different from the original situation in Huaxia.
After learning about these situations, Wang Jian thought about it, if the domestic cultural industry wants to develop and go to the world, it must not just say how good the works we want to produce, and if the excellent works are not promoted, and they will not be good at using market technology, I am afraid it will be difficult
Promote it all over the world and strengthen Huaxia's soft power.
Now although China's hard power is there, but hard power alone can not decide everything, nor can it use hard power to solve everything, all countries that use hard power to solve everything are all finished, now is the era of playing soft power, the people of the United States are very proficient in this area, other countries can rarely match it, China wants to catch up with them or continue to develop soft power.
In order to develop soft power, it is necessary to develop the cultural industry, shape the image of the country, and spread our good side to them, so as to form our cultural self-confidence, so that some people who are hostile to us cannot succeed in their conspiracy.
When I came back from Hollywood, Wang Jian convened everyone for a discussion and asked everyone what they thought, everyone looked at each other, and someone said: "Secretary Wang, the cultural circle of the United States seems to be very prosperous, although there are many people in the cultural circle in our country, but our cultural income is far less than theirs, this is where we feel backward, their writers and directors in this place have a very high income, and our writers and directors are probably far inferior to them, this is a very market-oriented thing for them, It's worth learning from. ”
Wang Jian nodded and said: "Everything in this country is marketized, everything is manipulated by capital, we originally said that they are capitalist countries, everything is determined by capital, which is in line with their essence, it seems that they are very free, but they can't get rid of the shackles of capital, I don't say this to say that I am an old antique, biased against capital, on the contrary, I admit the power of the market and capital on economic development, but we should not be too superstitious about capital, capital is profit-seeking, When they are all captured by capital, we can see the glamorous appearance, but the copper smell in the bones can still be smelled, they have created a lot of material wealth through this development model, and now they have created cultural wealth in this way, we have to learn, people have a mature market mechanism, a set of capital operation methods, but we must have our own ideas, can not be too superstitious about their things, can not be completely intoxicated in their model, He also has some social problems in the United States, and they themselves can't solve them, such as the gun problem all the time, although many people think that it will affect social security, but the gun capitalists have a strong persuasive power, resulting in them not being able to solve this problem at all, the people are actually easily bewitched, in fact, who would play with guns in ordinary times? Only a few enthusiasts would do this, but for the sake of a few hobbies and the interests of gun manufacturers, they are not willing to give up this right, do you think they can solve it? The so-called success is also capital, but failure is also capital, we need to develop the cultural industry through the power of the market, but can not be completely blind, or to form a set of their own way, not only to develop and expand the cultural industry, but also to have a certain sense of social responsibility, not completely profit-seeking, so that it can work. ”
After listening to what Wang Jian said, everyone kept nodding their heads, although some things in the rice country look good, they may also have some problems, and it may not be a good thing to learn them indiscriminately.
