Some people commented on Ning Hao, saying that he was like Guy Ritchie, and that he was like the Coen brothers!

No Man's Land is definitely a good movie, there's no doubt about it!

But it's not a film for everyone.

If there was censorship, the film would have been R-rated!

There is no good person in the real sense of the whole play, the lawyer kills people, the police cheat for personal gain, and the mountain people who should be simple actually extort and kidnap and sell * prostitution...

Much like the Coen brothers!

After "Heart Flower Road", it feels like playing with tickets, except for the encounter through time and space in the final stage, which makes people a little amazed by the director's means, other aspects really don't look like Ning Hao's handwriting, Huang Bo didn't run...

Of course, this is still a mature commercial film, with mature narrative skills, and a degree of relaxation...

It's just that Ning Hao is a little unworthy of him!

No joke, the public's expectations for Ning Hao are just like a group of people are now dealing with Bai Xiaofei.

You're either so good or don't shoot!

Therefore, on the first day of the release of "The Judge of the Dead", it directly set a record for Bai Xiaofei's lowest movie rating...

Of course, it's a little better than "Riding the Wind and Waves", but it's also limited...

"Crazy Alien", Ning Hao held back for five years!

Fortunately, that group of viewers is not old yet!

But he still has a problem, "The Wandering Earth" started ahead of schedule and was released in January, and the reputation is very good, and the director Guo Fan himself is a die-hard fan of Da Liu!

This "The Wandering Earth", the sci-fi part has not lost points, and the literary and artistic retention in Da Liu's works is particularly complete - Guo Fan himself eats by literary and artistic nature!

With the comparison, once "Crazy Alien" does not perform well in science fiction, that thing is really a minus!

Many viewers want to know what Ning Hao will hold back after five years of death!

So, the attendance rate of "Crazy Alien" is not at all lower than that of "The Judge of the Dead"...

Public praise...

is a little bad, not compared to "The Judge of the Dead", Ning Hao's movies have always lacked a warm side, and this alone makes it difficult for all audiences to buy it!

It's set for the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it's still playing deep, what do you say about this thing?

Ning Hao is too confident!

……

Closing the phone, Xiaobai can already be sure that the box office of "Crazy Alien" will definitely not be as good as "Judge of the Dead"!

The atmosphere of the Spring Festival stalls is here, of course, you can have depth, but it is best to have a family-like ending.

The young lady was neatly dressed and seemed to be ready to go out, but she still asked, "Do you need me to accompany you?" ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Sister Shu asked me to watch a movie together..."

“… Which movie to watch? ”

"Well, Crazy Aliens and The Sun Never Sets..."

“…”

Xiaobai was speechless...

Is "The Judge of the Dead" so unpopular?

"My sister, they went to see "The Judge of the Dead"..."

"Thank you!"

Yang Lan hurriedly slipped away...

Xiaobai squatted down, first cleaned the cups, then put in the tea leaves, waited for the water to boil, and poured boiling water...

After waiting for about three minutes, I picked up the tea set and began to sip...

At this moment, the phone rang, and it was a reporter from Time.

Half an hour later, a white man about forty years old walked into Xiaobai's house, Lalawang, who was lying on the carpet and watching TV boringly, immediately stood up vigilantly, and noticed that Xiaobai was very friendly to him, and it continued to lie down...

……

Time magazine is very high-end and atmospheric.

In fact, in North America, the best-selling print media is always a daily newspaper, and the sales of a single issue such as "Variety", "Time", including "National Geographic" do not exceed 500,000 copies...

But it is one of the most famous magazines in the world.

The goal of the journal is to be 'people in the age of images'!

The reason why I found Bai Xiaofei is because they want to make a series - five directors of influential films in the 21st century!

Bai Xiaofei is the only non-Hollywood director selected!

Although it is now the era of the Internet and self-media, high-end paper media and magazines have not been replaced, and they are still symbols of character.

"Hello Thomas!"

"Hello, Director Bai Xiaofei, Happy New Year!"

"Thanks, so are you..."

After a few brief sentences, I went straight to the point.

At first glance, this Thomas is a typical foreigner who has been devastated by Western etiquette, his hair is combed very smooth, every strand of hair can be seen, he can't wait for flies to split on it, and he wears a suit on his upper body very carefully...

"A lot of people are curious about you, how did you come up with such a great work as Truman's World?"

“… It's not greatness, it's just a flash of inspiration, you know, for directors, a lot of times, genius creativity is given by God! ”

Xiaobai's English is very good, so he didn't call a translator at all, and the two of them chatted alone.

“… Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? ”

"There's nothing to talk about about this, you can check Wikipedia!"

"No, I mean, how do you know for sure you can be a director, and how do you define your approach to acting?"

Thomas hurriedly explained.

"Oh, OK," Xiaobai picked up the cup and took a sip: "Before I became a director, I was a screenwriter and actor, when I was in college, the school stipulated that students in the acting department must play tricks and hone their acting skills, when I entered a crew, I was very dissatisfied with the work attitude of the actors, so I would criticize them and help them rehearse the play, which is very wrong..."

Thomas was a little puzzled: "Isn't that right? ”

"Because I'm just a newcomer, I don't have the right to command the crew, and then, I was fired from the crew!"

"This situation lasted for three crews, so I simply stopped playing tricks..."

Thomas: "Why? ”

Xiaobai stretched out his hand: "I... I'm a bit of a perfectionist at work, and I'm not willing to work with people who have a bad attitude towards work! ”

"My personality dictates that I can only be a director!"

Thomas nodded: "So, you made "Knocking on Heaven's Door"? ”

"Do you know 'Knocking on Heaven's Door'?"

Xiaobai was a little surprised, so far, his films, except for "Truman's World", which were released worldwide, can only be distributed in Asia, including "Knocking on Heaven's Door"...

"Of course, a very good movie, a black comedy!"

"Thank you," Xiaobai smiled, and continued: "My first work is not "Knocking on the Door of Heaven", but a web series "Waste Wood Brothers"..."

"Web drama?"

“… Unlike Netflix's web dramas, the web dramas I am talking about are somewhat similar to DVD movies, which are small productions that can be sold to Internet video companies..."

"I see!"

Thomas nodded, and Xiaobai continued: "I have to admit that "Scrap Wood Brothers" borrowed from "Community" ("Scrap Wood Alliance") when it was created, and this web drama made me a little famous in a small area..."

"Therefore, the company has the confidence to let me shoot "Knocking on the Door of Heaven"!"

In fact, now that I think about it, the investment scale of less than 20 million does not necessarily have to be Chen Laoba's investment, if Xiaobai is willing to run, there will still be many companies to invest!

After all, there is a base for "Waste Wood Brothers"...
