Chapter 85: Interview
January 19......
Zhonghai City!
In front of Chen Xi, there was a woman wearing a moon-white professional skirt with a delicate figure, long hair with slightly curly ends, and a pair of silky eyes, which looked charming.
This is a reporter from the "TV Drama" magazine who came to interview him today.
There is also a little girl busy next to her, the little girl has a little flat chest, but she looks very delicate, she should be an assistant.
"Director Chen really lives up to his reputation, he is young and promising, and his appearance is just like the legend."
The woman's words were originally compliments, but there was no trace of this element in her tone.
Chen Xi smiled slightly: "Miss Huang, I am flattered to say this...... It is my honor to be interviewed by your magazine. ”
"It should be my pleasure too! I believe that in the future, when you become a great director, I will also be glad for the experience. ”
…… The two exchanged a few polite words, the busy little girl finished her business, and the interview officially began!
This woman ran all the way from Xijing, Longxi Province, to Zhonghai, one east and one west, thousands of miles away.
This matter was brokered by Ou Yangzhi.
"TV Series" magazine, in fact, has not been established for too long now, but this magazine has just been founded, and its sales have been bullish.
Because behind this magazine, even Big Mouth Media.
Big Mouth Media, at the beginning, entered the print media circle with 93 years of "Contemporary Song Circle", and more than ten years of development have made it the most influential professional entertainment media group in Chinese mainland.
Previously, Dazui Media had some well-known magazines such as "Contemporary Music Scene", "Slam Dunk", "Watching Movies", and "HIT Light Music".
Originally, in terms of interviews, this kind of magazine often selects topical and well-known directors or actors to do it......
The recent ratings of "Latent" are on fire, the latest finale, the ratings are off the charts, Chen Xi as a director, his looks and talent have won the love of many people.
So, coupled with Ou Yangzhi's matchmaking, this matter is a win-win situation.
Chen Xi uses the magazine to increase its popularity, increase the forced style, and the magazine can also let Chen Xi, who has recently become popular, increase the sales of the magazine......
The official interview begins.
This female reporter named Huang Weizi, at the very beginning, pointed the finger at the sharpest part: "Director Chen, everyone said that the ending of "Latent" tore apart a qiē happiness, making everyone's wish for a reunion an empty talk, and there are many people who are dissatisfied with the ending, what do you think about this?" ”
Although this is not Chen Xi's real work, when shooting, he clearly experienced any blood and bones, coupled with Chen Xi's own strength, if he wants to show Xiàn excellence in the interview, it is a hand-to-hand capture.
Chen Xi said: "The finale, I don't think it's as bad as everyone says, on the contrary, I think at least there is hope, and I think that people who are really satisfied with the finale may not necessarily go online to say it, so that there is one person who can't say it well, and there will be ten." ”
"But do you think it's really a hopeful ending? Leave a child? Huang Weizi suddenly found that her sudden attack as a fan of the drama made her sweat on her forehead, and she quickly restrained her feelings.
"In terms of our outlook on life, this is enough, I have always felt that "Saving Private Ryan" is a Hollywood film, but he is a very Chinese story, unfilial piety is great, so we have to save that seedling, which may be more than many things. I have heard such a thing, when Premier Zhou met Qian Zhuangfei's wife, he felt that Qian was dead, Zhou knelt down to Qian's wife, and said that it is fortunate that you still have a descendant...... So, I designed the main character to go away for the faith. ”
"Then why can't it be designed to be a real reunion?"
At this time, even Chen Xi himself sighed a little emotionally: "Spy war, sometimes over-packaged, 007 seems to be triggering a trend of spy war for fragrant car beauties, it is not even a spy war movie, but an idol film!" They are at ease and move around. Of course, I don't mean to criticize, it's just that the types are different......"
"But, in real history, what kind of people are spies? Regardless of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, lurking for faith, they dare not tell the truth in their dreams, disguising themselves as another identity to everyone, day and night, as in "Infernal Affairs", in the end, their names cannot be engraved on the monument of victory, and most of the spies do not have a good ending in the end, and it is even possible that in the cruel torture, Huangquan died but no one knows, making a happy ending, which certainly satisfies the audience, but ...... Sometimes, I feel sorry for the martyrs who died. ”
…… Huang Weizi was also slightly silent, and after a while, she spoke: "Then what do you think of the protagonist Yu Zecheng?" Some people say that this is almost a workplace textbook, and the protagonist is not a traditional hero, what do you think? ”
"Sometimes, I think it's an anti-idol TV series, the protagonist is not good-looking, and he is cautious, and sometimes even a little obscene. During the filming, I kept saying to Sun Honglei, you are not a hero, you have to be docile, you can't be public, in fact, you are shameless, you are a villain...... But the charm of Yu Zecheng lies in this, his decisive victory is not by force, not by hugging left and right, but by wisdom and faith. ”
Chen Xi continued: "I think that the real spy should be like this......"
"Everyone says that the reason why the ratings of "Latent" are so popular now is because it uses the skin of faith to package an entertainment film, and the suspense and tension factors in it are as standard as textbooks, what do you say?"
Politics. Governance must be correct!
Chen Xi pondered for a moment and then said: "I don't think so, in fact, the TV series is just the opposite!" I use entertainment films, with tense and suspenseful skins, to package stories about faith. ”
At the end, Cui Ping and Yu Zecheng discussed children, Cui Ping said that she also wanted to be an old hen, hugging the nest and laying eggs, our story should be listened to, told to the children, and the children told to their children...... That's exactly what I'm trying to say, people are just a stubble of wheat, new ones grow and old ones fall, but those things have to be passed down, especially about faith. ”
"Today's people are very smart, and everyone has gone through the main theme years of the eighties and nineties, and most of them are disgusted with preaching, and young people are even more disgusted, so if you want to say something and really pass on something to children, then you have to really 'lurk' this kind of thing, 'lurk' in entertainment films......"
…… The two of them chatted a lot, and Huang Weizi found that Chen Xi is really a very powerful person, a lot of things, about culture, about history, he is even more imaginative, quoting scriptures, and speaking is very logical.
This interview also made her even feel that some of her thoughts were changed by Chen Xi......
This is rare to see in her life.
Towards the end of the interview, Huang Weizi even felt a sense of reluctance in her heart.
She also wanted to hear more about Chen Xitian, the south and the north, the three emperors and the five emperors.
But now that it is the end, she can only start to ask a very critical question, which is what many people want to ask Chen Xi, and it should be what Chen Xi is willing to answer.
"And what's your next work? Is it still a spy war TV series? ”
"No, my new film is in the works." Chen Xi smiled slightly, but this sentence will inevitably bring a great shock to others.
