When Chen Xi saw this grand occasion in front of him, he didn't have the complete feeling of being watched, on the contrary, his heart was still a little dignified now, it seemed that it should not be a simple matter for so many people to settle down if they wanted to......

In other words, in the current situation, Chen Xi is definitely facing a rather terrifying war of words!

There are also a lot of cameras in the lecture hall of Beiying today, and of course there are a lot of cameras and the like...... In fact, these cameras come from a wide range of sources, mainly cameras of some people on campus, and the purpose of these people is of course needless to say......

Prince, there are some cameras used by reporters coming in from outside......

In fact, the reporters were able to come here after the special permission of Beiying, otherwise, it would be quite difficult for ordinary reporters to enter Beiying directly......

These reporters of Beiying, after they entered Beiying, all acted in unison and were managed militarized...... Otherwise, if they do something beyond what Beiying allows them to do, it won't be something that will make everyone feel gratified.

Now that he has watched so many people and so many cameras, Chen Xi also knows that many of the things he said today will definitely appear on the Internet in the near future, which also means that many people will see these things that belong to them and hear some of their own justifications......

However, now Chen Xi also pressed a lot of thoughts into his heart after taking a deep breath, and he didn't want to think too much, after all, in the current situation, what Chen Xi has to do is just convey some of the things he thought before, of course, it would be even better if he could have some better publicity effects.

Under such circumstances, soon, today's symposium officially began, in front of Chen Xi's eyes, this group of proud sons and daughters of the sky. I also began to make a deferential appearance.

Chen Xi started his own opening remarks: "Everyone, teachers and students of Beiying, hello everyone! Chen Xi's opening remarks can also be said to be relatively decent, and there are not too many outstanding places, but it also makes people feel that they can't find fault!

In fact, this symposium is actually about the interaction between students and Chen Xi to complete a certain process, so some of the words Chen Xi said at the beginning are not very important, but more important is in the interaction between everyone later, at this point. A lot of things will really be revealed in front of the big guys.

In fact, this thing is the same as writing a paper, if there are too many things in a topic, it seems that this is a very high-level thing, and there will be many people who think that such a topic will be all-encompassing......

But in reality, the bigger the thing, the harder it is to do, because a lot of things have a lot of aspects. The slightest change will affect too many things, and if you do too much on a topic, then the biggest possibility in the end is that it sounds like everything is said and everything is brought to a little bit, but in fact nothing goes deeper.

This time. Finally entered the question session, at this moment many reporters began to be energetic and ready to record the collision between Chen Xi and this group of students this time, wanting to see if there can be any sparks, of course, it would be even better if there could be any blood flowers.

Many of today's students are also in high spirits. In fact, for them, now is really the most anticipated link, and they have too many things in their hearts to communicate with Chen Xi...... Of course. There are also many people who simply feel that there are a lot of things in their hearts that can blame Chen Xi and the like......

Chen Xi had a smile on his face at this moment, he was standing before, but now he was sitting on the stool behind the podium in front of everyone, waiting for everyone's questions.

The first question was actually a girl, who looked a little bookish, and seemed to be a literary young woman: "Director Chen!" Are you really feeling like you've mastered the sci-fi stuff you're shooting now? In fact, I'm also a fan of yours, so I don't want to see your new movie fall apart because of the subject matter or something......"

Chen Xi knows what this person means, in fact, many fans of Chen Xi have similar thoughts now: they are also worried that Chen Xi rashly touching the theme of science fiction is really too easy to cause some very bad reactions, which will make Chen Xi's previous efforts to accumulate a reputation be wiped out, and then many angry fans will completely cancel their attention to Chen Xi, and even they will be hurt somewhat.

So judging from the current situation, there are indeed many such people, and they will indeed start from Chen Xi's point of view.

Chen Xi smiled slightly: "First of all, thank you for your attention, and then I want to say that since I plan to shoot a science fiction film, I naturally have my own ideas, and I also have my own confidence!" I can now pat my chest and say that I haven't made any bad movies, and you can also watch my previous works, so I'm very confident that I can let you see the next "Source Code" is such a good movie. ”

Chen Xi's answer is relatively satisfactory for this girl, she nodded and sat down after expressing her gratitude, but Chen Xi's current words have begun to arouse some people's disgust, in fact, in traditional Chinese culture, there is the word modesty, and many things are being integrated into everyone's blood, so although this can't really rise to the moral level, it will indeed affect many people's judgment of things.

Therefore, now some people are beginning to sneer a little in their hearts: I didn't particularly like Chen Xi in the first place, but now after hearing such words, I feel even more uncomfortable.

At that moment, someone stood up directly: "Director Chen, I think sometimes you are overconfident, after all, in the history of Chinese films, there are only a handful of really good science fiction movies, and even I personally think that there are no real science fiction films in China!" And the "Source Code" that you're about to release now may sound good in some places, but I don't think it makes sense, and your film may not really get the grades and quality that match your confidence. ”

Chen Xi frowned slightly when he heard such words, he really didn't like to hear this kind of thing...... Because the middle is indeed full of a strong taste of doubt, and there is a bit of self-righteous attack on Chen Xi in the middle. If this kind of thing can make people happy, then there is a ghost.

Chen Xi said directly at the moment: "Our film industry originally started from scratch, and we are like this in China, for example, we can't never do something because there is no precedent, otherwise, how did we human beings progress to today's level?" How did our film industry emerge one after another new genres? Chen Xi's words are also reasonable, and the person who just proposed it for a while also felt a little unsure of how to say it, but he was not slow to react, and quickly continued: "But I don't think you have the ability to shoot a good science fiction film." In fact, the sci-fi genre is quite difficult to make, do you really think that the sci-fi films you shoot will be as smooth as your previous films? What makes your sci-fi films stand out? ”

This kind of questioning made Chen Xi really frown, sure enough, this place is prone to such aggressive guys, but from Chen Xi's position, he is not a saint, hearing such a question, with a kind of anger in his heart.

"I have that confidence. Of course, I don't have to convince you to believe it, I should be convincing the audience, who will use movie tickets to vote for my movie, whether it is good or bad. There will be a result......"

After Chen Xi said this, this guy was speechless, if he continued to say, it could only be strong words, indeed. In the end, the audience still has to buy it, and it is indeed better to leave things like final voting and scoring to the audience, which is also in line with some of the spirit of the movie.

But. Soon, someone stood up and asked: "Director Chen, I liked some of your movies before, including films like "Border Storm", of course, this is also my personal favorite of your films, and you are now starting to shoot "Source Code" and many other movies, which proves that you plan to start taking the road of blockbusters in the future, is that right?" ”

Chen Xi nodded: "It's basically correct, I will take the road of blockbusters, of course, it's not that I haven't paid attention to other things since then, it's just that it's mainly blockbusters in general." ”

The man then asked, "But why do you have to go down this path?" China's blockbuster road has now begun to approach the bottleneck, especially the films of many directors such as Zhang Yimou have failed one after another in terms of word-of-mouth, which has pushed this road to a cramped corner, why don't you stick to your previous characteristics and start from another angle? Completely making blockbusters and looking forward, is this the direction of the film industry? There have been so many glorious other genres in our country, and I think it's important to revive them. ”

This kind of words really has a bit of a taste of generalization, but Chen Xi soon found that many people in front of him were more concerned and nervous...... That is to say, everyone is actually quite interested in this topic, and I am afraid that many people will also think that this is the case in their hearts, and they will even despise Chen Xi who "looks forward".

Chen Xi shook his head slightly in his heart, and said: "Blockbuster, I want to ask everyone, why do we want to make blockbusters?" ”

Hearing this, some of us looked at each other.

Chen Xi said to himself: "In the nineties of the last century, Chinese people really began to come into contact with Hollywood blockbusters, and we saw the brilliant splendor of Hollywood, the realistic horror of dinosaurs, and the breathtaking sight of the Terminator machine...... However, our own movies are still many movies that are biased towards humanistic care, and there are almost no real commercial blockbusters. ”

"As a result, we began to have more introspection, with the era of Chinese commercial blockbusters opened by "Hero" in 2002, in fact, this is the inevitable choice of Chinese films, a kind of cultural consciousness, under the wave of globalization, Chinese film art creation has given way to commercial films, to borrow a term in the study of intellectual history, which is actually 'salvation over enlightenment'. For example, after the Opium War, due to the impact of the industrial revolution, the production of handicraft workshops was unsustainable, and Chinese had to learn from the production of large machines in the West...... Our film is just copying such a process, and in fact, light industry is not enough to save the whole country, we must start from heavy industry, which is the same for film. ”

"Why do Americans make blockbusters? Because of the more than 100 years of film industry, they have almost exhausted the imagination space that 'small films' can narrate and express. With the emergence of television as an audio-visual art broadcasting platform, movies are bound to show their own media advantages to give the audience a reason to enter the cinema, and replace the "watchability" with a kind of "must-see" to shock the audience in a short time. ”

"So, when Hollywood blockbusters invade, what can we rely on to fend off? If all of them are literary films, even if we have a Protection Month, what is the use? How many people will willingly walk into the cinema? When the Hollywood giants conquer the world, they use powerful visuals to remove cultural discounts, but they also mix their own values, how can we resist? Is it relying on literary films? ”

In fact, if Chen Xi said this sentence three or five years later, it would be even more deafening, because the problem of domestic films at that time was that a lot of money-making cheating youth films and the like were occupying the mainstream of the market, which was quite worrying.

Indeed, in fact, this is the case.

The cultural discourse is really too important, the stupid and coarse Soviets back then, the consequences of losing the right to speak were quite severe, and now in the socialist camp, when there are few left, the cultural siege of China is quite terrifying.

From this point of view, a qiē is even more important.

Hearing Chen Xi say these words, the hall fell into a brief silence. For them, what Chen Xi said is really reasonable, and it also occupies the commanding heights......

Of course, from Chen Xi's point of view, he does have the heart to make blockbusters and make a lot of money, but what he just said is indeed from the bottom of his heart.

Blockbuster, it's a must. (To be continued......)
