Chapter 125: New Movie!
"This is a matter of opinion and wisdom, "Border Storm" does use a small plot and anti-plot interspersed in the plot, but on the whole, this is still a story with a big plot."
Chen Xi gave this answer after thinking about it.
The concepts of big plot, small plot, and anti-plot are more clearly explained by the legendary Hollywood screenwriter's bible "Story", and this reporter naturally understands it.
"At the end of the movie, all the plots are interspersed, I think this is enough, even a person who can't talk about the aesthetics of the film will not feel that he can't understand the movie, and there is no estrangement between the movie and the audience."
Chen Xi's words are a little insightful, and they also have a bit of professionalism as a screenwriter.
But people who read this kind of magazine can at least basically know some things, and they can also understand Chen Xi's words.
"Some people also say that the box office of "Border Storm" is due to the protection of domestic films, and there should have been many foreign blockbusters in this summer file, but there are only one or two of them, which makes "Border Storm" take advantage of the loophole, what is your opinion on the protection of domestic films?"
"The release date of "Border Storm" has been set a long time ago, not for any so-called loopholes...... What's more, in the schedule of "Border", there are also fierce movies like "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", I don't think this schedule can be considered too good if you really want to talk about it carefully? â
"As for the protection of domestic films...... Our film industry is still relatively fragile, blockbusters are just getting started, and there are some things that are always necessary, how many countries in the world really don't have zĂ i film protection at all? However, the film and the market are a complex two-way choice, and the audience's interest and acceptance will affect the choice of the theme and the direction of the film in the early stage, on the other hand, the improvement of the quality of the film will also affect the audience's aesthetic and choice tendencies. The mechanism of the market is necessarily cruel, but at least the results obtained are relatively fair. The real way out for Chinese films lies in the efforts of creators to strengthen themselves in the competition...... These cannot be relied upon. â
"Since you talked about the big plot before, from the perspective of the play itself, are you optimistic or pessimistic?"
Chen Xi smiled slightly: "I gave a closed ending, this matter has been solved, even if it is not so perfect." So, if you want to say optimistic or pessimistic, everyone should be able to see it from the movie! â
"Regarding the ending of the movie itself, I want to say that in the movie, so many characters look at it in the end, whether it is a drug dealer or a dentist, or a policeman and Wang Luodan, who is just a pure woman, although everyone's identities are very different, but if we jump away a little and look at it from a high place, they are just one person, with their own worlds, their own joys and sorrows, of course, he has his irreversible fate."
âŚâŚ After all, there is only half a page, and there are not many words that can be accommodated, even if the font is very small......
What's more, there is also a photo of Chen Xi in the middle, and there are even fewer words that can be accommodated on the layout.
Soon, the interview also lasted for half an hour, and the reporter began to ask about some of the more attention-grabbing things.
"As a post-80s director, what do you think you will do after "Border"?
"Keep making movies! And I'm already preparing my own new film! Chen Xi smiled.
"Oh? New movie? The reporter was interested, and after chatting so casually, he came up with a good breaking point: "What kind of type is that?" â
Chen Xi said: "It may be action, or it may be comedy, I will do my best to make sure." â
"Will you still stick to the narrative line of "Borderland"?"
ââŚâŚ After all, whether it's action or comedy, applying the structure of "Border" won't fit very well, I think I'll change the mode! â
âŚâŚ When this issue of "Popular Film" published an interview with Chen Xi's character, Chen Xi once again received a lot of praise.
Judging from this interview, Chen Xizhen is a relatively wise director, with his own furrows in his chest, which is also a description of him, as a post-80s generation, he can make his film career to the point where it is now, and the time is so short, his future will be limitless!"
"The content of the interview with "Popular Film", coupled with Chen Xi's face, really makes people have to say that Chen Xi has too many benefits, this is a young director full of halo, I hope he can go on with such an aura."
At the same time, there are many people who are more interested in Chen Xi's new movie.
"Chen Xi is going to make a new movie? He's pretty fast...... It's a bit worrying about this speed, and he says he's going to move on to comedy or action movies, and I'm skeptical, can he do it? Don't exhaust the popularity of "Border Storm". â
"Comedy or action, Chen Xi, are you sure you're really ready? But I'm looking forward to seeing if the director who surprised me can continue this kind of surprise in the future. â
âŚâŚ From this, Chen Xi's popularity now is also unobstructed.
He has initially established the brand "Chen Xi", so that everyone believes that this brand can produce good movies, and this belief that Chen Xi will manage it well, let it gradually become more and more tough.
During this time, "Border" continued to be released in major theaters.
After the arrival of the second week, "Frontier" basically maintained close to 20% or even higher film schedule every day, before the arrival of "Transformers", the number of films scheduled for this film must be guaranteed, of course, this week's "Border Storm" also carried forward the advantages of good films.
Many films are basically just blockbusters in the first week, and after the first week, the box office in the second week will plummet by two-thirds or more...... After that, the box office of the film will only fall, and the final major box office will be in the first week. But "Border Storm" did not, in the second week of this film, the box office still exceeded 10 million, so after two weeks, the box office has exceeded 20 million, becoming one of the highest-grossing domestic films so far this year!
Of course, this figure also means that Chen Xi has recovered the cost lightly and made a profit! But this will not end there, the box office of the movie will continue to grow, and the next increase in income will all belong to pure profits!
