Chapter 389 of the text sparks a war of words

Next chapter

In addition to China and the United States, Zhang Tan's third promotional route is South Korea, which is the world's sixth largest box office after North America, China, Japan, the United Kingdom, and France.

KBS TV specially planned a dialogue-type interview for Zhang Tan, hosted by a professional news interview host in South Korea.

At the level of Zhang Tan, he is already a high-end elite, and the treatment will not be worse than that of some political and business figures.

Asia's best-selling author, the world's most outstanding young director, has his own film and television company, Internet technology company, and investment fund.

Zhang Tan's title is said in full, which is really very bluffing.

In the interview, the host asked the most questions about what Zhang Tan thinks of Korean movies, and Koreans care very much about how others view them.

Zhang Tan basically maintained a neutral attitude: "The commercial development of Korean films in recent years has been very good, and many excellent films have been made, which is worth learning from Chinese filmmakers." The biggest feeling I have about Korean movies is that the filmmakers are very attentive, sincere and spiritual, and put their feelings and thoughts into practice. ”

Then he said: "We Chinese filmmakers have obviously not done enough in this regard, and now our country's film market is doubling its capacity every year, and the audience's demand for movies is also increasing." Many times you can make a lot of money without paying attention, so many directors and screenwriters are too lazy to pay attention, just rushing for money to shoot movies and fool the audience, which is a pity. ”

Then the host asked Zhang Tan to compare Korean movies and Chinese movies.

"My personal feeling is that there are a lot of middle-level directors in South Korea, and they can produce a lot of excellent films, especially in politics, crime, sexuality and violence, which is worth pondering," Zhang Tan said. But when it comes to war, history, and national feelings, the director's heart loses its peace. ”

Then add a sentence. The words that made the host's face ugly: "The commercial results are good, but the artistic quality still needs to be worked on." ”

It's not good, but the host can't refute it, because every time a Korean movie brags. It can't hide the fact that only one of the Oscars, the three major European films, and South Korean films won the Berlin Golden Lion Award last year, and none of them won the award.

And Chinese-language films (including Hong Kong and Taiwan) are the three major frequent visitors in Europe, and the Oscars have also been in several times.

What is needed for the artistic pursuit of film is the foundation. Background is the expression of culture, and there are three Asian film art achievements with the highest achievements, Chinese films, Japanese films, and Iranian films, all of which are countries with strong cultural heritage, and South Korea lacks a little.

In fact, even when it comes to business, the performance of Chinese films overseas far exceeds that of Korean films, because Korean films have almost no box office overseas, and they all brag about themselves at home behind closed doors.

Then the public opinion propaganda and guidance are good, which makes people feel that the box office of Korean movies is awesome, but the number of jù is all blank.

Zhang Tan still remembers his last life. On a forum, I saw a sarcastic Han Ying's smooth mouth: "I said that honor is better than awards, and you say commercial box office." I said that the box office is more than jù, and you say that there are more rod exports. I said the amount of overseas show, and you said that the stick place is small...... Now that you know that the stick is small, you still blow a hanging. ”

Of course, Zhang Tan is not embarrassed to mention that Chinese films are better than Korean films, and it is a shame to compare a large country with a population of 1.4 billion to South Korea with a population of tens of millions.

was touched by Zhang Tan to the G-spot.

The moderator's expression turned cold. has a heart to despise Chinese films and elevate his own movies, but in front of Zhang Tan, it is really difficult to speak.

The other party is a Hollywood-level director. has won the exclusive title of the most terrifying man in Hollywood, and the attainment of horror films is directly to the top, if he is not too young, he can't run away with the title of horror master.

Even the Chinese films he filmed, "Source Code" and "What Time Taught Me" all exceeded 10 million at the box office in the United States. It's unmatched by any Korean movie.

The highest box office of Korean movies in North America is just over $2 million.

This topic can no longer find a sense of superiority, and the host hurriedly changed the topic: "Director Tan Zhang, have you watched "Han River Monster" directed by Bong Joon-ho, which one do you think is the best monster movie in Asia?" ”

The host's voice-over, "Monster of the Han River" is the best monster movie in Asia.

Zhang Tan listened to the meaning of the translation, uh, thought for a while, and then said: "What impressed me very much was the Japanese "Godzilla" ......"

The host's face is going to be even more ugly.

Fortunately, Zhang Tan thought that he was here to promote and give face, and then said: """Hanjiang Monster" should be regarded as an anti-monster movie, which is very good, I know that this movie is directed by Bong Joon-ho. ”

The host's face improved, and his smile also changed: "Director Tan Zhang, the first English-language film "Snowpiercer" directed by Bong Joon-ho is a science fiction film, and the "Matrix" directed by you in Hollywood is also a science fiction film, and it will be released this summer." And both of you have made excellent sci-fi films before, "Monster of the Han River" and "Source Code", so what do you think of director Bong Joon-ho? ”

This question caught Zhang Tan a little off guard, he really didn't know Bong Joon-ho very well.

Korean movies pay less attention, and the previous comparison is still based on the memory of the previous life, so at the moment I have to play official: "I think director Bong Joon-ho is a very good director." ”

The host looked at Zhang Tan and waited for the following.

Zhang Tan looked at the host and disappeared.

"Ahem, let's talk about The Matrix." The host coughed up blood and said.

……

The interview was then broadcast in the evening on South Korea's KBS television station.

Almost after the broadcast, huge discussions and quarrels were set off by netizens on the Korean Internet, and it is obvious that Zhang Tan's evaluation of Korean movies has hit the G spot in the hearts of many Korean netizens.

First, there was a lot of scolding.

"It's ridiculous, Chinese movies are just a piece of now, what do you compare with our country's movies, what Tan Zhang is, it's not worth lifting shoes for Bong Joon-ho!"

"It's great to go to Hollywood, and we Korean directors don't bother to go to Hollywood at all."

"I've watched Tan Zhang's movie, and it's okay to have a "What Those Times Taught Me", and the rest is rubbish."

""Monster of the Han River" kills "Source Code" in seconds!"

"Is there a problem with Korean films being No. 1 in Asia?"

"Chinese movies are the same as Japanese movies, they have long been rotten to the end, what are you blowing!"

"Chinese movies are as rubbish as Chinese smog."

"The treasurer (a mockery of the Chinese name, like we call a stick) likes to brag about himself."

"This lord of the suzerain's kingdom hasn't woken up yet."

Fifteen minutes later, another group of sane netizens, as well as Zhang Tan's fans, arrived at the scene.

"Isn't what Tan Zhang said correct, why do you all feel insulted, and besides, he didn't brag about Chinese movies, didn't he say that Chinese movies should learn from Korean films."

"How fragile is your self-esteem, what Tan Zhang said is not the truth? Korean cinema is still developing, don't always feel like we've ruled the world, "Monster of the Han River" only grosses just over 2 million in North America, and "Source Code" has more than 40 million. ”

"Bong Joon-ho is my favorite director, but it can't be denied that in the world, Tan Zhang's achievements are far higher than Bong Joon-ho, I don't know why everyone is comparing the two of them recently, is there a possibility of comparison?"

"Tan Zhang Oba is only twenty-six years old this year, and in a few years, he will probably be the greatest director in the world."

"I think everyone is too sensitive, Tan Zhang didn't say anything during the interview, it's all the host guiding the topic and taking his own humiliation."

"Detective, Asia's No. 1 commercial director, no one can deny this, this year's "The Matrix" will definitely kill all blockbusters, haven't you watched the trailer?"

As a result, the two groups of people were very happy to kill on the Internet, from who is better in Chinese movies and Korean movies, to whether chopsticks were invented by Koreans, and then to whether Tan Zhang has Korean ancestry.

In the end, neither of the two groups of people could convince anyone, and gradually unified their decision to score a high or low in the two sci-fi films directed by Chinese and Korean directors in "Snowpiercer" and "The Matrix".

"Snowpiercer" crushed "The Matrix" at the global box office, and lost to eat Xiang!"

"The global box office of "The Matrix" dumped "Snowpiercer" a few streets, and I ate feces if I lost!"

A small wave of neutral netizens coaxed: "I have kept the screenshots, sit back and wait for you to lose ****, don't forget to start the live broadcast when the time comes." ”

……

Of course, Zhang Tan, who was noisy in South Korea and slapped his ass and left, didn't know that he only stayed in Seoul for a day before flying to Australia for an interview.

Originally, the distribution company hoped that Zhang Tan could go to Japan to promote, but Zhang Tan refused, and there was friction between China and Japan ****** every day, Zhang Tan didn't want to go to Japan, so let Kelly and Rondo, or Zhao Zhuo go to Japan to do publicity, and he went to Australia.

"The Matrix" was filmed in Australia, and many familiar places are Australian scenes, so this is naturally the box office to actively strive for.

After the Australian interview and publicity, Zhang Tan flew to the United Kingdom again, and the British interview was completed, and he finally returned to Los Angeles after a circle.

This is the last leg of his advocacy tour to communicate with USC students.

USC is the University of Southern California, and its School of Cinematic Arts is one of the best in the world, with alumni winning the most Oscars in the world. In addition to the School of Cinematic Arts, music, business school, medicine, architecture, engineering, etc., are all ranked among the top 10 in the United States, and the alumni of the School of Physical Education have won the most Olympic medals in the United States.

In short, this is a very hanging school, Zhang Tan is coming here to pretend to be forced. (To be continued.) )
