163 Chan's analysis of Hong Kong cinema
readx;
After sending Fang Chao away, Chen Shaoyi sat down again and asked Chen Qixin: "Ah Xin, you are studying film theory in the United States, do you want to stay in the United States in the future, or do you want to go back to Hong Kong to develop?" If you want to develop in the United States, I should be able to get you an internship in the United States, but whether you can stay in the United States depends on your ability to convince those Yankees.

After listening to Chen Shaoyi's words, Chen Qixin was a little moved, but after thinking about it, he still shook his head and said: "Brother Yi, forget it, I don't have the idea of staying in the United States, although Hollywood is indeed the best film and television base in the world, but after all, it is a foreigner, not us Chinese, so I still hope to go back to Hong Kong to develop." After my recent research, I found that the Hong Kong film market is basically fully mature, especially this year's two high-grossing films of Brother Yi have stimulated the rapid development of Hong Kong films, and there will definitely be a blowout of Hong Kong films in the next few years, and I am almost graduated at that time, I believe that there will definitely be my opportunity at that time. ”
Chen Shaoyi nodded with satisfaction, Chen Shaoyi actually asked with the intention of testing Chen Qixin, because Hollywood is too attractive to people in the entertainment industry, no matter what country you are an artist, you definitely have a yearning for Hollywood, Chen Qixin is studying film theory in the United States, if you have the intention to develop in Hollywood, it is also very normal.
Although Chen Shaoyi understands that Chen Kexin's future development is in Hong Kong, Chen Shaoyi can't understand what Chen Kexin's real thoughts are, especially when he is in "Cao Ying", will he be attracted and tempted, but in the end he didn't have the opportunity to think of returning to Hong Kong? Since Chen Shaoyi is ready to take Chen Kexin under his command, he must be clear about Chen Kexin's thoughts.
Of course, if Chen Shaoxin really wants to develop in the United States, Chen Shaoyi will also help Chen Qixin, just because Chen Qixin is his "brother-in-law", Chen Shaoyi is a person who helps relatives and does not help. But in this way, how to make Wu Junru and Chen Qixin get better, it will be a headache for Chen Shaoyi.
Fortunately, Chen Qixin couldn't resist the temptation of Hollywood and chose to return to Hong Kong to develop, so what caused Chen Shaoyi's headache would not happen.
Chen Kexin's answer not only made Chen Shaoyi satisfied with him, but also made Chen Shaoyi admire Chen Kexin's vision.
If Chen Shaoyi didn't have the experience of later generations, to be honest, he didn't deserve to lift Chen Qixin's shoes with his two blows, Chen Shaoyi felt that he should learn from Chen Qixin, maybe this future director might give him good inspiration.
Chen Shaoyi smiled: "Ah Xin, your analysis is very good, do you have any other ideas?" ”
Chen Qixin was overjoyed when he saw that what he analyzed was favored by Chen Shaoyi, just like a child's toy being liked by others.
Chen Qixin excitedly continued: "Brother Yi, there are not many types of Hong Kong movies now, and everyone is still playing the two sets of money-making magic weapons proposed by Director Chu Yuan, action movies and comedy films. To say something that offended Brother Yi, Brother Yi's drama also followed Director Chu Yuan's tricks, but the script was better written, the actors were more well-known, and the box office was higher than before, but there was not much difference in essence. ”
Chen Shaoyi was not upset because Chen Qixin said this, but clapped his hands and praised: "Ah Xin said it well, you continue to say." ”
Seeing that Chen Shaoyi did not show a dissatisfied look, Chen Qixin put his mind at ease and continued: "Brother Yi, I also studied Baohe's pioneering work "Ghost Fighting Ghost", this drama is more innovative, adding ghost stories to Hong Jinbao's original kung fu comedy, which makes the overall plot and picture sense a lot fuller, which can be described as quite successful, and the box office has also achieved good results. I think that in order for Hong Kong films to develop, they must be like this, repeating the scenes of a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending, both in terms of the style of the film and the type of the film. Director Chu Yuan is really a genius director, and proposing these two magic weapons to make money is definitely the standard in the industry, but everyone is bound by previous films, action movies are either kung fu movies or martial arts films, and comedy films are all ghost movies, these are all old behaviors, which makes Director Chu Yuan's set of standards rotten, and he may not be able to make excellent films at that time. ”
Chen Shaoyi nodded and praised: "Ah Xin, I can't imagine that you have only been in the United States for a year, and you have such an opinion, very good, so what do you think?" ”
Chen Qixin was very happy in his heart, but he touched his head shyly and said: "Brother Yi, you are stumped for me, it is not difficult to see this, I believe that many filmmakers in Hong Kong can see it, and Brother Yi can naturally see it." But if you really want to ask me what I think, I really can't think of anything, but I think that American hero films, as well as gunfight films and other genres should be good, these types of films are not like "Star Wars" science fiction films that require too high technical content, and they are an extension of action movies, I believe that it can still be done with Hong Kong's film technology, and it is easy to cultivate stars for films like these types, I think this should be beneficial to the overall development of Hong Kong films. ”
Chen Shaoyi can't admire Chen Qixin now, this guy still looks young and doesn't have much experience, but that head is definitely top-notch, and his brain is also very flexible.
Although Chen Qixin's words are not too innovative ideas, everything Hollywood has, but what he said is exactly the development trend of Hong Kong films.
Chen Shaoyi was overjoyed when he saw Hunting, and said straight to the point: "Ah Xin, although you are not big now, but your vision is very good, and your analysis is very correct, I am very optimistic about you, I believe that you will definitely be able to become a great director in the future." I also have a film and television company in Hong Kong, I want to invite you to come over and help me after graduation, would you like to? ”
"This ......"
Chen Qixin is still young after all, and he only knows that he wants to become a director in the future, but he does not have a really detailed life plan. Chen Kexin is thinking about returning to Hong Kong for development in the future, but he has not yet thought about which company to join Hong Kong.
Chen Shaoyi struck while the iron was hot and continued: "Ah Xin, of course you don't have to agree, anyway, you have to study film theory in the United States in the past few years, I think it's just like this, every winter and summer vacation, if you have time, come to my company to help, by the way, also give yourself an internship, and practice some of your film theories earlier, I believe it will definitely help you in the future." ”
Chen Qixin saw that Chen Shaoyi had said this, and he also introduced Chen Shaoyi as a confidant, and finally agreed to Chen Shaoyi and temporarily interned at Phoenix Film and Television Production Company.
Chen Shaoyi smiled secretly in his heart: Ah Xin, Ah Xin, as long as you enter Phoenix Film and Television Production Company, then you will be a monkey, how can you escape from my Five Finger Mountain.
