Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

At the beginning of this year, Lao Mouzi's billion-dollar movie "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" won the championship four times in four consecutive weeks, with a total box office of more than 500 million. (Please search, the novel is better and faster!) But the cost of 100 million US dollars from the movie pounced on breaking up with Zhang Weiping directly. The movie was sent to the overseas box office, but the Japanese box office was negligible, and the American media also did not evaluate it well:

The New York Times commented that Zhang Yimou's biggest failure was that he adopted an alienating and even understated approach to the entire Nanjing Massacre. The whole story is born in a fictional European-style church, and is full of sexual innuendos in the context of the massacre (although the bed scene is short, the core of the whole plot is the covetousness of the Japanese soldiers for 13 schoolgirls).

The Hollywood Reporter criticized that only the dumbest filmmakers in Hollywood would inject sex into a disaster like the Nanjing Massacre, but this became the core element of "Thirteen Hairpins." The famous American film critic and Columbia University professor emanue1-Levy wrote an article in the magazine "Film", criticizing "The Thirteen Hairpins" as "not inspired by real life, but a smorgasbord of films created by Zhang Yimou that lacks balance and excessively shows off certain scenes, and is the worst film since Zhang Yimou's work." The New York Post simply satirized the film as "withered trophies," calling it a "soap opera of extreme absurdity."

Producer Zhang Weiping originally wanted the film to have a show at the 84th Oscars, competing for all 13 individual awards, of which Christian Bale and Ni Ni will compete for Best Actor and Actress. It's a pity that on the famous film review website "Rotten Tomatoes", the professional praise rate of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" is only 3o%, and the foreign language films that participated in the Oscars in the past must have a praise rate of at least 8o% or more in order to hope for the award. Now the Oscars are long gone, and there is no shadow of China.

Li Donglai did not make any comments on the film, and he lived in a simple way. coincided with the official release of "Thirteen Hairpins" in North America in March, and Li Donglai specially took the time to take the woman into the cinema to watch it, and he was also arrested by the media.

Now you can still take photos of Li Donglai on the street. Reporter, don't be too excited, not to mention that Li Donglai takes one and gets two free when he goes out, and there is always a beautiful woman by his side. Because the scale of the release is small, it took him a lot of effort to find this movie theater where it was released.

After reading it, he gave a rare interview. However, the reporter interviewed Emma first, she was full of pregnancy, and the little woman's face was always shiny. smiled: "I accompanied him to watch the movie." Movie... It's not bad. ”

Li Donglai took over the conversation and said: "Recently, everyone on Facebook and Twitter has been discussing this movie, and I occasionally have to run to watch it. After watching the movie carefully, many of the people I watched it with were very impressed. Personally, I think it is better than the previous movies directed by Zhang, whether it is special effects, acting skills or story, it is worth recommending. Although there are flaws. But it is by no means as bad as recently evaluated by the US media. I can assert that many guys who write movie reviews just follow the trend and write one without even watching the movie. I recommend everyone to take a look and not be blindly blinded by the critics' comments. ”

Of course he has to say good things, if even he criticizes, who can go abroad for Chinese films?

As the 2o12 New Year to the present, Li Donglai has always been a man of the hour. He commented on a movie that did not belong to him, and it was also reported by many media. Such an unscrupulous criticism of film critics will naturally provoke attacks from those who already have a grudge against him. They said that they would take a magnifying glass to see Li Donglai's next movie - "Teddy Bear".

"Just what I want."

How many Hollywood movies have been released, they have all worked hard to promote their positions, but as a result, Li Donglai's new film is still fighting in the mainstream media from last year to this year. It's really the envy of major companies.

However, Li Donglai's righteous words were reprinted and sent back to China. Drew two thanks. Because he said casually, it really made the box office of "Thirteen Hairpins" rise up. It's just that the movie is really not to the taste of Americans, most of them are Chinese, and it is impossible to sell well.

During the Spring Festival schedule last year in China, there was not only one "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" in the limelight. In fact, another 3D martial arts blockbuster "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" has a much better reputation than it.

Although the box office of the film in Hong Kong was not satisfactory, director Xu Keda is indeed the first batch of directors in Hong Kong to find a way to make films correctly in the big 6. Compared with many Hong Kong directors who are still dominating Hong Kong, his films have successfully exceeded the 500 million mark.

As a domestic 3D, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" was not favored by the audience before, and they have always distrusted domestic technology. After the release, it quickly reversed the audience's concept. It also started the fame of Xu Ke's martial arts in the new era.

I have read the script of "Di Renjie's Divine Dragon King" handed over by Xu Ke: In the last years of Tang Gaozong, Gaozong and Wu Zetianli sent troops to attack the enemy country, but unexpectedly, the fleet went to sea and suffered heavy losses. When the young Di Renjie first arrived in Luoyang, he was involved in the case of others abducting Oiran Yin Rui Ji (played by ange1ababy), and after several twists and turns, he rescued Rui Ji and won the trust of Dali Temple Qing Wei Chi Zhenjin (Feng Shaofeng), and took Yu Chi and Sha Tuozhong (Lin Gengxin) to investigate and deal with the "Dragon King Case", and Rui Ji's former lover Lang Yuanzhen became the key to solving the case. At the same time, mysterious people, giant sea monsters, and conspiracies about the safety of the royal family come one after another, and Luoyang City is in danger......

Li Donglai was not very satisfied. Since the movie is starred by him, it must win the overseas box office, otherwise with his price of breaking 100 million, he can't sell overseas, who would dare to ask him to make a film.

He is a junior, but he gave many opinions on the script without giving face, "Obscure places should be modified, and every line must be accurately translated into English, including Tang poems." Not to mention suspense, the plot simply fools people's IQ, and the thunder point is close to "Wuji".

At the beginning of the movie, the Tang Dynasty Navy was completely annihilated by mysterious creatures, feudal superstition killed people, and the people of Luoyang carried Yin Ruiji to sacrifice to the Dragon King. As long as Li Donglai thought about aB's skinny figure, he couldn't help frowning, the master who only had four taels of meat on his bones sacrificed to the dragon king, can the dragon king be full. Aren't the beauties of the Tang Dynasty meaty, but the old monster completely ignores them...... That's it, after all, it's his own woman, and Li Donglai agreed.

The sacrifice was not thrown into the river as expected, but first sent to the temple to be consecrated by the master. The master wanted to drink tea as a foreplay, but was stunned by a puff of smoke. A group of masked gangsters came to rob relatives, and the gangster leader couldn't control himself when he saw the heroine, and he gnawed on it in broad daylight. Later, the monster that Yuan Gongzi turned into appeared and fought randomly. And the people of Dali Temple are like all Hong Kong films......

Many plots do not rely on history, which is also a common problem of Hong Kong movies. Among them, Xu Ke is especially important. He didn't do much of this, and he won't go into detail about the strange costumes in "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and the like.

Later, it was Di Renjie who searched for the truth according to the map. After Yuan Gongzi woke up, a spoiler was a qiē, and it turned out that all of them were neon scenes' conspiracy. They vainly tried to wipe out the high-level leaders of the Celestial Empire with special products supplied by the central government, and their intentions were so vicious.

The detective scene in this part is much weaker than the first "Babel Empire". The gimmick of the "Di Renjie" series is the detective plot, if it is not done well here, then the follow-up will be worrying.

Looking at the script, the first high-tide should be the scene where all the imperial relatives and courtiers in Luoyang City serve bowls and break the Guinness record for the largest number of people drinking urine...... Forget it, don't mention the bad taste of Old Monster Xu.

The next plot seems to be a copy of Pirates of the Caribbean, an island that looks extremely evil, and unleashes rock climbing stunts, dodging around the cliffs to kill the villain. Then in the sea, he had a decisive battle with the final boss, the Dragon King.

The metaphor of this film is easy to understand, the neon ronin is immortal, and he has been dreaming of winning the Central Plains. In addition to poisoning special food, it also cultivated advanced weapons similar to aircraft carriers, in a vain attempt to occupy sea supremacy and blockade the Celestial Empire in the ocean. In the end, the dust settled, the Celestial Empire regained peace, ushered in a new prosperous era, and the Tang Dynasty dream was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. And at this moment, the palace is quietly experiencing an earth-shattering change

Regarding the title of Xu Ke's technical madman, Li Donglai also has a dismissive attitude.

He watched the soon-to-be-finished film "Youth Pi Fantasy Drifting", and immediately became a brain-dead fan of the Li case. That's called technology, and all technology is in the final analysis to better serve the movie itself, which is the difference between Xu Ke and Li's case.

Li Donglai revealed the weaknesses of the plot one by one, and connected with Xu Ke on the phone many times, chatting for hours.

Xu Ke's attention to Li Donglai can be seen, after all, Li Donglai's script has won Oscars many times. In today's era when scripts are hard to find, his opinion is the foundation of whether "Di Renjie" can go overseas.

"Since it's a co-director, Director Xu, don't blame me for not knowing the sky."

"No, no, I took the initiative to invite you, knowing that you are not the kind of selfish person. A qiē is all for the movie, what do you have to say. I learn from you. ”

“…… Well, let's not compliment. I would like to mention some of my opinions, the landscape of the ancient capital Luo-Yang can be narrated in the way of the Qingming Shanghe map, and the style of the ancient capital can be truly restored. I agree with the 3D shooting, but I have the final say in all the technical aspects. With all the technical information, I can ask the crew of "Kung Fu Panda" to suspend the process and go to Luoyang to shoot special effects on the spot to restore the ...... Regarding the special effects atmosphere, I recommend you to check out "Life of Pi" shot by director Li Case in the canal on Taiwan Island, and I have no secret of saying that it is a film that can compete for the Oscar. ”
