A few days ago, the National Day films "My Motherland and Me" and "Captain of China" entered the top 10 box office in Chinese film history. The former has a box office of 2.75 billion and the latter has a box office of 2.69 billion. The strong box office appeal has contributed to the most recent years. Hot National Day stalls.
Among the seven directors of "My Motherland and Me", Wen Muye is the youngest one. Although the "Convoy" he directed seems to be young, it is not as well received as the "Win the Championship" and "Hello Beijing". But it is worthy of recognition to be able to complete this large-scale production qualified under such great pressure.
Yes, although Wen Muye made Douban 9.0's annual movie "I'm not the God of Medicine" before, he is not at all nervous and pressured when facing gift films and senior figures in the digital industry.
In a recent interview, Wen Muye also talked about a lot of short stories before and behind the scenes. When shooting a gift film, he would indeed be murmured in his heart. Wen Muye said frankly: "It's very stressful and nervous. In fact, I only shot For one movie, the other six directors are my teachers.”
has only made one movie, and delivered an excellent answer of “Douban 9.0, box office 3.1 billion”. This super high starting point is for Wen Muye. , It is both encouragement and pressure. The advantage is that after the filming of "The God of Medicine", the subsequent investment or restrictions may be reduced, and the creation is more free; but because the starting point is too high, regardless of the investor or the audience market, the requirements for him are definitely higher. .
is like this "Convoy". If it was filmed by another unknown newcomer director, the audience would think it was normal, but if it was filmed by Wen Muye, even if he was a newcomer, we would be disappointed. After all, he For directors who have just filmed a masterpiece, "general" means "bad".
However, no matter what "The God of Medicine" brings to Wen Muye, he still warns himself with a clear mind, not to forget the original intention of creation.
However, in the interview, we also discovered that Wen Muye is not as dull and serious as in public places. In private, he also has many interesting preferences.
His idol is Ang Lee, which must be known to many fans. Wen Muye said that he will not be a star chaser, but Ang Lee is like a "lighthouse" for him, which is enough.
He likes small animals. There was a dog that had been raised for 16 years. He passed away early last year. When asked if there are any more pets, Wen Muye temporarily denied: "I don’t think that time has passed yet... indeed It’s still very sad. I raised this dog for 16 years. That dog doesn’t treat himself as a dog anymore. He treats himself as a person every day.” He said that if he had the opportunity, he wanted to make a cute pet movie, but the cute pet movie wanted It's hard to shoot well. His favorite is Hachiko.
He is also a senior chasing fan. "Naruto", "Reaper" and "Hunter" are all his memories, and now there is only one fan chasing, that is "The Pirate". He believes that the animation world and the real world are at the root of the same, and that is why they can resonate with the audience. To this end, Wen Muye also gave a most impressive example: "I can still remember that after seeing the Golden Meri on fire, the song "dear friends" was on fire. I cried all afternoon that day and their boat burned. No, that Meili is dead."
He also chased Korean dramas, at first he disliked the slow narrative rhythm the least. After watching "Please Answer 1988", a large-scale "really fragrant" scene appeared, crying hard, "Every three to five I have to take it out and take a look again, it's like a kind of life companionship." In fact, after a little understanding, we found that Director Wen Muye still has a very life style, similar to you and me. He also stays up late to surf the Internet and chases after him. If you cry, you will have an idol you admire. I believe that these tastes of life are also of great help when he is creating movies.
