Chapter 682: End of Class

readx;?“ Mr. Han, I think in addition to the input, the treatment of the actors is also a little bit. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" The female classmate stood up and replied: "Maybe in the eyes of the outside world, actors are high-income people, but in our industry, we know that there is still a huge gap between our income and Europe and the United States, and the salary that our top stars can get is only the salary of an ordinary star in Europe and the United States, and the gap undoubtedly brings a sense of gap to our hearts." ”

"It's really good, Brother Xiaolong should be the contemporary artist with the highest salary of domestic artists at present. His salary is about eight million US dollars, but compared with Hollywood's top stars who often pay tens of millions of dollars, the gap cannot be changed, which is why domestic stars always want to go abroad to develop, and the remuneration obviously plays a big role in it, are you wrong, is there anything to add? Han Yi agreed with this girl's words very much, and personally gave an example to supplement. After letting the girl sit down, Han Yi continued to ask questions.

Later, a few more students answered. Some mentioned the big environmental impact, and some talked about the entertainment atmosphere, etc., Han Yi nodded one by one.

"Okay, after listening to it for a long time, it seems that everyone has a certain understanding of the gap between domestic films and European and American films, so I will also announce the question from Bai Xue just now. In fact, you have all answered her question just now, and Bai Xue's question is how can Chinese films catch up with Hollywood movies. ”

Hearing that Han Yi finally said the question, except for the questioner himself, everyone present also suddenly realized, no wonder Han Yi wanted to ask that question just now. Obviously, it was to prepare for answering this question, but after suddenly realizing it, many people were looking forward to Han Yi's answer, after all, what they said was only what everyone could see on the surface, and Han Yi's answer should obviously be more in-depth.

Han Yi naturally won't let them down, the reasons for those people's answers just now are all external factors, so Han Yi will talk about this problem to this group of students from internal factors.

"Speaking of the gap, in fact, it is better to say that each has its own strengths, in fact, Chinese films themselves also have their own strengths, such as the dialogue of the plot, or the acting skills of the actors, etc., in fact, the domestic is not bad, many people think that the most fundamental reason why domestic films cannot enter the international market is investment, I think this is still too one-sided, in fact, the domestic film itself still does not echo the so-called general trend in terms of development."

As he spoke, Han Yi wrote the word "general trend" on the screen in front of him.

"I know what the biggest criticism of domestic films in the eyes of foreign media is, which I have also said, that is, excessive use of dialogue to explain the plot, a kind of procrastination of the plot itinerary, and a movie also needs at least 90 minutes of plot, so that too much procrastination of the plot will affect the rhythm of the whole film, and it will also consume the audience's patience at the same time."

While Han Yi said this, the classmates below were also taking notes at this moment, and even some teachers began to frown and think deeply, as the saying goes, the lamp is black and the lamp is dark, and the brightest place is actually the darkest place, domestic filmmakers have always been proud of their ability to write in-depth lines, but sometimes this is often the wrong way.

The long explanation may be acceptable to the domestic audience, but for foreign audiences, this is undoubtedly a waste of time, the audience is not stupid, and they are more willing to use their own brains to think about watching movies.

And this involves another problem, which is also a few words nanny-style film that Han Yi has written now.

"Many directors are now making the same kind of mistake, that is, worrying too much, always afraid that the audience can't understand here and there, and as a result, they add unnecessary lines and plots to the film, the purpose of this is also to consider the audience and their own reputation, but this practice just confirms the word I wrote, in fact, the audience is not stupid, they have their own judgment, and in the final analysis, the film should not pay too much attention to the lines, this thing is not expensive, and focus more on the plot, Let the plot tell the audience's judgment, this is what a real movie should do! ”

"Other than that, it's the subject matter!" Han Yi said and wrote down the subject again.

"Maybe many people think in their hearts that only those with Chinese characteristics are Chinese films, and I don't agree with this statement." Han Yi's words caused a lot of commotion at the scene, and a teacher sitting in the front row raised his hand and asked.

"So what is a Chinese film? Is there no Chinese element theme? I don't agree with Mr. Han's words. ”

Obviously, this teacher is a staunch supporter of this argument, and Han Yi just smiled at the other party's provocation, he naturally had his own understanding when he said this.

"What is culture, what is the mainstream, culture that is not limited to the international is the mainstream, if some people always want to use those remote cultures that belong to China to make a fuss, I'm sorry, I don't think there will be any way out for you if the movie points to you." Han Yi said unceremoniously, this sentence made the teacher's face flush, and there was a heated discussion underneath.

Han Yi pressed his hand, calmed down the scene and continued: "In fact, it is not only China's problem, but also in Europe and the United States, it is difficult for those non-mainstream films to become the main force, which is why the Cannes Film Festival is called the most artistic and influential film festival, but most of its attention is limited to the circle, and the general public does not care too much about it, on the contrary, the Oscars can attract the attention of global fans." ”

"Because the Cannes Film Festival serves that small group of people, those who are determined to pursue art films, many of which are incomprehensible to the audience, but at the same time, the Oscars are doing something different, artistic films that also have commercial influence, and that is the key to its success."

"I'm sure you probably know an actor named Cusack." Han Yi said and suddenly asked.

"Yes!" Some shouted.

"Then you know, Cusack was famous for making art films before, his acting skills are great, and his appearance is not bad, but why has he never been famous? In the end, this is the limitation, and in fact, there are cases in China and the United States, but the emphasis is different. ”

Han Yi smiled when he said this, and also made a summary of this problem: "Those who make art films are not necessarily film masters, and those who make commercial films are not necessarily covered in the smell of copper, I think that in order for Chinese films to catch up with the footsteps of Europe and the United States in the future, they must first take commercial films as the main force, supplemented by art films to cultural infiltration, so that complementarity is the key, rather than always counting on art films to win awards and fight for fame, to be honest, trophies are not important to the audience, They are most concerned about the viewing and quality of the movie itself! ”

"Okay, that's the end of today's topic, I hope we meet next time." Han Yi said with a smile.

However, after saying this, there was no sound or applause on the scene, everyone's faces were either shocked, reminiscing or contemplative, and even the teacher who was aggressive at the beginning had a dull face, as if the afterglow of Han Yi's words just now had not been digested.

Han Yi didn't care much about this, and after putting the microphone away, he was about to return to the backstage lounge, and about five or six seconds later, just as he was about to walk off the podium, a burst of applause that could almost knock over the roof of the shed burst out!!

And early the next morning, Han Yi's words immediately made headlines in major entertainment newspapers.

If a student or another director makes this point, it is impossible for the entertainment media to report it in a big way, after all, in their opinion, it is about academic things, and there are not many bright spots.

But these words came out of Han Yi's mouth, so the highlights have greatly increased, and with a shocking title, it is a full selling point.

Sure enough, early the next morning, the headlines of major entertainment media were once again replaced by Han Yi's lecture at Nortel yesterday.

………

All kinds of reports emerge in endlessly, but the main theme is in Han Yi's last speech, because in the whole speech, Han Yi's sharpest and most essential passage is the last answer to this question, which can be said to be a vivid analysis of the pros and cons of domestic films, and the gorgeousness of those covers up was also ruthlessly revealed by Han Yi, revealing the bloody and ugly side underneath.

It is true that as Han Yi said, art films can't save the film market at all, they make the audience's acceptance too low in the final analysis, and Han Yi's words undoubtedly have the idea of coming out for commercial film directors, and after these articles appeared, the circle also had two attitudes.

Needless to say, those commercial film directors applauded one after another, Han Yi's words undoubtedly helped them correct their names in their opinion, you must know that this group of directors is infinitely beautiful in the eyes of the public outside the circle, but the recognition in the circle has always been inferior to those so-called award-winning directors, and some people's opinions believe that the box office and art cannot be equated.

Well, Han Yi's words emphasized the importance of the box office, which also gave this group of people a great support, such as Wang Jing, who is known as the director of Xiangjiang ghosts, directly publicly supported Han Yi in his column, in addition, the bosses of those film and television companies are also more or less silently supportive, after all, for a film company, the box office is indeed the key.

And for those art film directors, Han Yi's words were undoubtedly a sudden thunder that fell from the sky, directly hitting their heads.

In the past, it was really difficult to mix art films, film companies didn't want to see them, they didn't talk about no investment, they were also excluded by those commercial film directors in the circle, and they were even discriminated against in theaters, the only thing that could comfort them was those national and even world-class trophies, but now Han Yi's words have to reduce the status of this honor, which is simply the most painful place that touched them.

Some old people directly and unceremoniously publicly said that the meaning of Han Yi's words was wrong, and to put it mildly, Han Yi was not mature enough, but the counterattack of art film directors and the support of commercial film directors were a little weak, and the support among the public was not high.

is mainly because their own social awareness is not high, to put it bluntly, they are not popular, how can this compare to those commercial film directors?

Sensei said how bad the director of a commercial film is, or how to make money, but being able to become a director of a commercial film at least proves that his film has been considered by the public box office, and the popularity base is incomparable to that of an art film director.

After three days of scuffle, Han Yi, as the main master, finally spoke.

"Some media have misinterpreted my words, and my meaning is very simple, business is the main art, supplemented by art, and I give a set of data if I think there is a problem. The annual production rate of commercial films and art films is 91. ”

"Wouldn't that increase the number of art films? How do you know that an art film can't be liked by the public? As soon as Han Yi's answer was sent out, every five minutes, someone left a message under his scarf to question.

In this regard, Han Yi's answer is very simple.

"Then the problem of attendance, the average annual attendance rate of art films is less than 30%, who would want to take their own money to squander art with you? Cinema is, after all, popular art. Rather than the playthings of a handful of people, but looking at the big artists, whose work is worthless? Or do you want to be Van Gogh, live in poverty all your life, and finally gamble that your work will sell for a sky-high price if you die? ”

Han Yi's rebuttal was so sharp that the other party couldn't look at it directly, and the account that asked the question seemed to have disappeared and never appeared again, according to some netizens, this was hiding in the corner of the wall and licking the wound.

However, as Han Yi said, art and interests are always combined, not to mention the popular art of film, let's just say that those artists, you see that they also rely on art to eat, and the higher the value of the artwork, the higher their social status can be reflected.

Those who want to pretend to be high, Han Yi despises it the most, but he takes the investor's money and uses it to squander, filming something that only he and a small group of people are satisfied with but the public can't understand, and finally loses the investor's money, but he takes the trophy and pats his ass and leaves.

The most important thing is that this kind of person seems to be proud of such a situation, and uses the trophy in exchange for what he lost money to shoot and then fools the next unlucky investor, and so on, which is the most hateful.
