Chapter 715: Conversation with the Big Shot
I have to say that this is really a pretty amazing thing, in Luo Mo's attitude, he didn't expect it anyway.
But it's not particularly unusual.
After all, among the filmmakers he received, Luo Mo was not the first......
It's just that this time is different, there is a special explanation for meeting Luo Mo, this time it should be to talk to Luo Mo about a lot of things, not just a casual meeting......
This is a testament to Luo Mo's current influence in the film industry, and this influence is really not covered.
"When was that?" Luo Mo asked Director Zhang.
"It's just the last few days...... But ......" he touched for a moment and said, "That's right, then you should go home first, anyway, your family is in the capital now, isn't it?" It's good to be on call, haha. ”
Luo Mo touched his nose: "Cheng!" So be it, just tell me when the time comes. ”
He also planned to go home and think about the idea that the first chief wanted to see him, and when the time came, he always had to have a little bit of thought when he spoke, and he couldn't just deal with it.
After returning home, my wife's pregnancy has slowly begun to show her belly, and her belly is now not small.
Luo Mo listened to her stomach, and although she hadn't heard kicking herself, she still felt it.
Slowly, Luo Mo also got used to these things.
Two days after Luo Mo went home, the above notice came, and Luo Mo didn't take much time to come to a specific place, and then saw the big man who met him.
The chief is already here, and there is not much difference between Luo Mo and Luo Mo on TV before, in photos and so on, but it is a little older than before, after all, China has changed a lot in the past ten years, and has experienced a lot of major events.
Luo Mo came here, and the chief saw him for the first time, stretched out his hand and shook it with Luo Mo first, Luo Mo smiled: "Hello chief." ”
"Hello, it's still similar to what I imagined, very energetic, and I came to you today to talk casually, don't be too restrained."
"Okay."
After that, the two really started chatting in a homely tone.
It's still good to talk about it casually, after all, it's such a big person, and he has more aura and some personality charm. But Luo Mo is not bad, after all, after so many years of training, after so many years of rolling in the entertainment industry, and meeting all kinds of people, slowly, Luo Mo is now more proficient in these things, of course, he also has enough aura.
Therefore, the current Luo Mo has not fallen into disadvantage in these places.
However, the two slowly entered the main topic, and this topic is naturally about Chinese movies.
Luo Mo actually knew for a long time that the first chief called himself like this, naturally he was talking about things related to Chinese movies, which was very clear, but what he wasn't sure about before was the specific details of what the first chief talked to him about.
Now, it's time for the specifics.
"Then tell me, what do you think about the next development of our movie?"
The first chief said with a smile.
Luo Mo knew that he had entered the topic, so he nodded.
At this time, the two were already sitting diagonally opposite each other, sitting diagonally opposite a sofa, this posture was indeed quite close, after chatting for so long, after the two had preliminary contact, anyway, many things also had a little superficial understanding.
"The next development ......," Luo Mo said: "First of all, we have to fight against Hollywood." Movies from other countries don't care about it for the time being, it's really not easy for them to make money in the Chinese market, but Hollywood movies alone are enough for us to drink. ”
"Our movies are indeed like this, although I don't have much time over the years, I have also paid attention to it, this time to release the domestic film protection month, in fact, many of you are a little aggrieved."
Although people like the first chief naturally have to pay attention to a lot of things, all kinds of big and small things, it must be inevitable...... However, these things are to be paid attention to, but the movie sounds like a small thing, but in reality, it is a lot of things.
Cinema is the seventh art, and as a cultural influence, it is inextricably linked and involves all aspects.
Of course, there will be some differences between people who grew up watching Hollywood movies and people who grew up watching domestic movies...... However, then again, if you always watch bad domestic movies, then naturally there is nothing to do.
"Wronged ......" Luo Mo smiled: "In fact, this matter is also a painful period of reform, and everyone has been comfortable for a long time, and they really need to walk in the wind and rain." ”
Chinese films have really been comfortable on their own turf for too long, and there is no confrontation, which usually brings about their own internal disintegration, which comes very quickly, once some of their credit for Chinese movie audiences is consumed...... Then it's hard to say.
Therefore, now an external pressure is needed to stimulate the counterattack ability of Chinese films, which is like when China was always closed off from the rest of the country, just immersed in its own world, and there was no problem in dealing with people in its own country with bows, arrows, knives and guns. However, when the Western powers invaded China with cannons and giant ships, it naturally caused countless pains at the beginning, with mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, but it also made Chinese realize what the situation outside was like, and began to slowly learn the skills of the people, which was a kind of progress...... Although it is progress in the midst of labor pains.
Movies are also a truth, at the beginning, when the film market was suddenly invaded, of course, it brought about the dissolution of the comfortable situation, but in many cases, there is no rebirth without dissolution, and Chinese films also need such a rebirth.
Luo Mo also continued: "Actually, compared to our market in two thousand years, the current situation is much better, at that time, our cinema system has not yet begun to reform, piracy is rampant, no one watches movies at all, when you walk into the cinema, you watch American films...... Compared with that era, although there is now the invasion of Hollywood blockbusters, our market has also expanded a lot, and Hollywood movies have an irreplaceable role in the expansion of this market. ”
"That's the status quo!" The first chief said: "Look at the problem dialectically, and divide the matter into two parts. ”
Divided...... There's a didactic point of view or something, but it's appropriate in the current situation. The impact of Hollywood blockbusters on Chinese films really needs to be looked at in two ways.
"Yes, it does." Luo Mo said: "Actually, from a good point of view, if you watch too many Hollywood blockbusters, the aesthetic level of movie fans can be improved, but the problem is that if you watch too many Hollywood blockbusters, the audience will gradually resist special effects blockbusters, and everyone will instead like those movies that are not obsessed with special effects and focus on the plot and quality of the movie, which is generally an inevitable trend." ”
That's the way it is, many people go to the cinema and start watching special effects blockbusters...... I always feel that if I don't watch special effects blockbusters, I'm completely sorry for the money I spent and the ticket price I gave...... But as time went by, the standard of cinema gradually improved, and they preferred films made with heart.
Especially in this day and age, pseudo-3D is rampant, and people really hate these things more and more.
"So, they're really good for this market."
"Okay, you have a point." The chief smiled, his smile was contagious, a man of this status, the aura on his body was indeed very sufficient.
"Then I want to ask you a question." The chief said to Luo Mo: "Do you think where is the way out for our movies now." ”
Luo Mo nodded and said, "One of the issues I have been emphasizing is that the quality of the movie is the foundation, and the quality of the movie is everything...... However, there is no shortage of smart people in China, all walks of life are like that, don't worry too much, just look at the performance in the first half of this year, we will slowly get up......"
"I've seen your castle stone plan, and we see your contribution to Chinese films over the years." The chief said, "I hope you can keep going." ”
…… The chief and Luo Mo talked a lot about movies, and it seems that the chief may not have much time to watch movies...... Also, with such a high status and so many things, how can there be too much time to watch movies? It's just that he is completely clear about many things in the film industry, and this clarity is to penetrate into it and grasp the essence of things.
The two of them sounded quite speculative anyway, they talked about a lot of things, which made Luo Mo a little worried, would he take up too much of his time?
However, after chatting about so many things, Luo Mo also wanted to know the true meaning of the head of the Dao to find himself.
Anyway, he thinks that if he has nothing to do, he will go to the Three Treasures Palace, and if a person like the chief is looking for him, there must be something to say.
Sure enough, after waiting for more than half an hour, the chief finally began to talk deeper.
"Director Luo, what do you think of this reform of Chinese film?"
It's time to get down to business......
It's very simple, it seems that this time it really has something to do with China Film Group.
Founded in February 1999, China Film Group is composed of 8 units, including the former China Film Company, Beijing Film Studio, China Children's Film Studio, China Film Co-production Company, China Film Equipment Corporation, Film Channel Program Center, Beijing Film Processing and Printing Video Technology Factory, and Huayun Film and Television Disc Co., Ltd. At its peak, it had 15 subsidiaries.
Such a China Film Group is not just a film group...... This company, which originally held the power of foreign film distribution, held a huge amount of power, because of the policy dividends, the original growth of China Film Group was a matter of course.
However, with the deepening of the reform of the cinema chain in China's film market, like many state-owned enterprises, China Film is also facing a lot of problems.
This can also make sense that he specially went to find himself.
