After the premiere, the film received a wave of criticism in the United States, with some angry Americans even speaking out against it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the domestic media is trying to exaggerate the praise of some Americans, this does not hide some facts.
There are not a lot of bad words in the United States, and many people are even more disrespectful, and Zhang Yimou's film did encounter Waterloo there.
"Zhang Yimou is a good director, but it's a pity that his film this time is deplorable. There was so much debate about the war that once existed. The two sides have their own opinions, but it is obvious that director Zhang Yimou's filming this time is indeed too subjective. Sixty years later, it's hard to know what actually happened at that time, but I don't think I was so mad at that time. There's an element of exaggeration, and maybe it could be called an artistic rendering, but I'd rather call this a deliberate, clumsy exaggeration. This is just a foreshadowing for his own plot, and it should not belong to the true content of history. ”
"World War II has been a long, long time since then, and it is gradually buried by time, but people in that country have always tried to trade these things for sympathy. It's just that we think this method is too ridiculous, and it's not up to you Chinese to ......decide what kind of war it is."
………… These remarks have not been seen by people in China, but they have been seen by too many people in the United States, and everyone has no opinion.
Su Li saw these news on December 14, and these things had been printed out of paper and came to Su Li's hands. When he saw the back, the corners of Su Li's mouth slightly grinned to both sides, and his upper and lower teeth rubbed a few times unconsciously.
After a while, he couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, and threw all the materials to the ground.
He even wanted to crush these things with his right foot, but it really didn't work, so he could only pick up the materials that had been accidentally broken under the great strength of the warrior.
Strength is everything, because of the problem of strength, they don't believe what Chinese say, because of the problem of strength, they can wantonly slander...... At these times, the cultural product of the film may be able to complete a part of the clarification of this kind of thing, but it is more likely to be self-defeating, allowing people to blame and ridicule unscrupulously.
The attitude of the Americans is that they have seen too much of their own good side, or that they have seen too much of the present person, and they cannot appreciate what happened more than 70 years ago. Actually, it's not their fault, but because of a variety of factors that confuse their auditions.
Su Li did feel the pressure on his head, he didn't want to change the world's perception of that struggle through this movie, although he had that thought, but he didn't have that strength. He didn't think that splicing one of his own films would change the Western world's perception of that thing, he just wanted to do something within his power. Su Li didn't want to repeat the mistakes of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", and he didn't want these Americans to sneer indifferently in the face of that disaster with indifferent mocking eyes.
clenched his fist, his movie has a killer feature, first of all, the kind of three-dimensional effect that can even make people smash their glasses, this is a three-dimensional film is a revolution in visual effects, Su Li believes that no one will be able to resist the impact of this revolution. On the other hand, this movie will use the development of the plot to make people understand why Yu Ben did it at that time, and why things turned out the way they did, which will be more convincing.
As for arousing other people's emotional resonance, Su Li did not skimp on his screen expressiveness, he can give full play to his strengths here, and let the pain that goes deep into the blood and bones melt into everyone's hearts. After these efforts, he has reason to believe that this film will get a different response from "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" at home and abroad.
"The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" will be officially released soon after, and the film is about to usher in a real test. In fact, the movie release arrangement during this period was a bit wrong, and the two movies "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" were released at the same time, and it was indeed a little unnecessary to kill a river of blood at the box office.
Sure enough, the two movies immediately began to compete for beauty after their release, and they fought very fiercely.
The first day of the two films was slightly inferior at the box office, but it was a success in terms of attendance, with both "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" being well-received on this day.
In the following time, the two films launched a series of box office battles, although at the beginning the two movies thought hello, hello, hello, everyone, but in the specific screening process has become a war filled with gunpowder. After the end of the first month, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" received a box office of 600 million, surpassing the less than 500 million of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor".
However, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" still can't recover the cost in the mainland after all, and even half of the cost has not been recovered, although the figure of 600 million sounds very scary, but compared to the cost of 100 million US dollars, 600 million is really not much. Compared with what Zhang Yimou once said about winning a billion box office in the mainland, 600 million cannot meet everyone's expectations at all.
After the box office failure of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", Zhang Yimou also came to visit the crew of "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers" one day, and the two chatted for several hours. After that, Zhang Yimou looked a little thoughtful, and he did get some of the things he wanted from Su Li. If at the beginning, every time the two of them had a long talk, it was probably that he was talking about Su Li and listening, but now the positions between the two people have been reversed.
Because, now Zhang Yimou is surprised to find that what Su Li said is becoming more and more level, and he is also more insightful, and he is becoming stronger and stronger in directing ability, many things he said are unheard of, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that there is a kind of power that makes him stunned. He felt that now he could learn from Su Li's body, and he really found that Su Li's progress had indeed reached a point where he needed to do his best to get a glimpse of the whole picture.
This guy's progress has shocked him, from the new tender who didn't know anything at the beginning, but now Zhang Yimou clearly feels that he is already a top director. This kind of top is not even the top in China, but the top in the world!
He also looked at some of Su Li's current shooting results, and saw what Su Li and their shots, and was indeed shocked by the kind of war scenes that were real to the extreme. The flying shrapnel and the smoke of gunpowder give people a shock that penetrates the heart, while the cold weapon fight is full of a sense of deadly danger in the beauty, which makes people unable to stop worrying for a moment.
In the end, he can indeed be regarded as a full load, and this time Su Li brought him a lot of new things.
After Zhang Yimou left, Su Li sighed...... Now the pressure on him is really great, he saw the current situation of Zhang Yimou's "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", suffered a fiasco in the United States, and was sarcastically ridiculed by the Americans at all costs, and the end was a little gray.
Su Li definitely doesn't want this to happen, he doesn't want his movie to be ruined by everyone in the end.
―――――― when filming the next literary dramas, Su Li was extremely attentive, and now many people have found that Su Li has changed a little. He is getting more and more strict about the next movie shooting, and many times everyone thinks that maybe it will be done like this, but Su Li always asks to do it again and three times. When encountering this situation, although everyone was okay at first, it became more and more difficult to scratch later.
Su Li couldn't say why he was so strict, although everyone didn't understand him very well, but he couldn't explain it, and he couldn't explain his deep meaning.
In the blink of an eye, 2012 has arrived.
2012 is a very special year for everyone, because not only in the movies, but also in reality, many people believe that this year will be the real end of the world. But whether it's the end of the world or not, life always has to go on.
Su Li doesn't believe in the end of the world, and even if it really comes to the end of the world, everyone will be finished together, so what's so terrible. The crew of "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers" only had a two-day holiday on New Year's Day, but immediately returned to continue filming.
This film takes a long time because of the special shooting situation and shooting requirements, and the need to make a 3D stereoscopic movie, so far, it is estimated that the film will be really completed around February, and after the post-production is completed, the release is estimated to be in the summer market, around June.
Because the requirements of the film are different, post-production requires more energy, more time, and more money. It is also necessary to invest more energy in the production of special effects, Su Li directly let 170 million yuan in the account of the Burning Shadow Special Effects Studio with a big wave of his hand on special effects, and the special effects investment this time is higher than that of "Inception".
This is the first time they have used special effects in a stereoscopic film, but they have already had a rehearsal and have also produced a video in this way, and it may take a certain amount of time to complete the whole "The Mountains and Rivers of the Country", but there will be no problems in terms of technology.
The Spring Festival in 2012 came relatively early, on January 23, and Su Li could only stay in the capital for the New Year. He still can't go home this year, after all, the filming of "The Country Breaks the Mountains and Rivers" has reached the most critical juncture.
He went to his girlfriend's house again, and he was a little more familiar with it than he had been the first time he went, and there was no embarrassment, but someone over there had already started to ask them when they were going to have a lifelong event. At this time, Su Li himself had to say embarrassedly that it was almost fast.
In fact, Su Li himself began to gradually think about this problem, although he is only 24 years old now, but the other party is 25 years old, and the two of them don't have much time to think about these things, sometimes they have to think about it in advance.
He has already determined that he wants to spend his life with this person, so naturally he will not hesitate.
