Chapter 0855: Give Me Your Weapon
Fan Wenqiang's "objective and fair" remarks are indeed very respected by overseas audiences, and even many Chinese people will feel very reasonable after listening to them.
But if you think about it, what is his so-called internationalization?
It is to turn Huaguo Kung Fu into a lighthouse country Kung Fu.
In the future, Huaguo kung fu movies will have nothing to do with Huaguo, and they are one of the components of the blockbuster of Lighthouse Country.
A few years later, when someone asks what "qi" is in kung fu, the most popular saying is that "qi is a kind of energy that is free in the universe", and then there will be a lot of professional terms in Yingwen.
Since ancient times, China has admired the word "authentic", which is not stubborn and old-fashioned, but a kind of inheritance, and an important guarantee for cultural continuity.
The so-called "authentic" is not really exactly what the ancestors left behind, but it means that it has been inherited, maybe it will be different, but the heritage is inherited.
If there is no "authenticity", then what has been passed down will be arbitrarily changed, changed beyond recognition, and all the heritage will be lost.
It is also a kung fu, which is all-encompassing, covering the principles and unique values of Chinese people.
But the "Grandmaster" series produced by the Lighthouse Country does not need these things, the only thing they want is the bells and whistles of kung fu fighting, and the sign of "kung fu".
The ideological core values still have to be used in the lighthouse country.
To put it simply: give me your weapon, and you can get out.
This is Fan Wenqiang's so-called kung fu internationalization.
It is also something that the Snowmoten movie behind him admires.
Otherwise, why did Bright go to all the trouble of digging up a Chinese kung fu actor to come over?
Do you want to help Chinese culture go global?
……
After recording the show, Fan Wenqiang came out of the recording hall, and the agent Li Fu came over with a briefcase, followed by two tall bodyguards, and made a pair of "black and white".
"Hadron, let's untie it down and be interviewed by Movie Weekly."
"Hmm." Fan Wenqiang straightened his collar, nodded in the style of an international superstar, and walked out of the building under the protection of his bodyguards.
Outside the door, many fans and reporters have gathered.
Fan Wenqiang may not have a good reputation in China now, and even those who know him basically don't have anything good to say.
But abroad, his popularity is still good, and it is getting better and better every year.
On the one hand, kung fu movies are really popular, but there are really not many kung fu stars in Huaguo who can play and act and can speak Eagle language. Han Lan is one, and his strength and popularity are indeed higher than Fan Wenqiang, but he has rarely been active overseas during this time, and he has never made kung fu movies.
Therefore, Fan Wenqiang has become the darling of overseas kung fu fans.
Anyway, they don't understand what real kung fu is, and what Fan Wenqiang presented in the movie is enough to make them applaud.
In addition, although Fan Wenqiang is now independent from Shengshi Entertainment, he is not really independent. Li Fu and Snowmoteng movies are on the line, and it is difficult to have a veteran film company like Snowmoteng to support him behind his back.
Fan Wenqiang just smiled and nodded in the face of these screaming fans, stopped and signed a few more names before getting on the bus under the escort of bodyguards and heading to the next stop.
The schedules of international superstars are packed to the brim.
……
……
Fan Wenqiang's speech on the talk show actually didn't cause much of a sensation, he didn't tear Han Lan and Tomahawk Pictures head-on, but he just received the attention of many fans overseas.
The video was moved to China, but there are many public knowledge and self-media who take the pride of being a country.
After all, it is really rare for a Chinese star to appear on a talk show in the lighthouse country, and his statement is very international and reasonable at first glance.
Why can't Huaguo movies go out? Because movies always carry all kinds of national emotions and all kinds of things that Westerners can't understand.
If the ideological core was replaced by the West, wouldn't it have gone out a long time ago? Or get the Tomahawk Pictures hero?
As for the stain left by Fan Wenqiang and his immigration to the lighthouse country, no one talks about it anymore. The memory of the Internet is short-lived, not to mention the entertainment industry where there are a lot of gossips every day, and ordinary passers-by have the heart to remember so many things.
Unless one day the media can't find the material, they will dig him out and fry cold rice, and write an article like "carefully picking up those Chinese stars who have already joined foreign countries, and the last one is surprising".
However, the video of this talk show still attracted the attention of the information security department of Tomahawk Group. After the broadcast, all kinds of intelligence were analyzed as soon as possible, and finally put it on Han Lan's table.
Fan Wenqiang's relationship with Snowmoteng's movies and Bright is actually not a secret in the Tomahawk Group, and it has long been clear.
"Oh, internationalization, co-authoring with Western values is called internationalization?"
"This kid has gone far?" Looking at the report submitted by the information security department, Han Lan shook her head helplessly.
"Mr. Han, do you need to dispose of him? We found some of his black material in our hands......"
Han Lan waved his hand and said, "No need, let him continue to jump." At this time, it is useless to give him black news, since Bright wants to support him to seize the market for kung fu movies, he naturally has a way to help him deal with everything. It was all about RU Hua at the beginning, but now it's also very jumping? Kung fu movies are not something they can shoot with a stuntman who is halfway home. It's okay, I have confidence in Brother Long, wait for "Ip Man" to be released, and let them see what Huaguo kung fu is. Cut, there is no authenticity? ”
"Mr. Han, we heard that this year's "Grandmaster 2" has been greatly improved, especially in the service of Huadao, which is much more elaborate than the previous one."
"Well, I see, keep watching. I know how much ability Fan Wenqiang's kid has, he was originally a half-kung fu, and now he is thinking about integrating into the Western world, and his level has long been inferior to his brother Fan Wenlong. By the way, let Lao Qi and them go to the lighthouse country to publicize after the New Year. ”
"Yes."
Han Lan waved his hand, and he went out.
Han Lan is indeed not very jealous of Fan Wenqiang now.
The strength of Tomahawk Pictures is still there, as long as it does not give up, it is impossible to lose its hegemony in kung fu movies.
Kung Fu is not only about fighting, but also about a lot of unique Chinese culture.
And these are exactly what the Beacon Nation film production team is missing.
Even if you use Western thinking to interpret Chinese kung fu, it is just a layer of skin, and the things you shoot can't be compared with the real thing.
At least Chinese fans won't buy it.
