" Into the Dust ", Haiqing said in an interview: " People around me think I'm crazy. It took 10 months to make a movie that might not be good." The key point of Haiqing's interview is that " does not necessarily get on ". The situation of the
movie also illustrates this point. Originally, at the beginning of the year, the film was officially announced to be released, but after a temporary withdrawal, it was not released suddenly until July 8. Before the release, it was very low-key, and there were no common propaganda traditions. I guess, this may be to protect the film's low-keyness in order to face the audience.
Therefore, for the low box office, Haiqing said with gratitude: "I am very satisfied to be able to release it."
Here, we have to focus on a practical paradox-why have Chinese movies fallen into a low ebb in recent years?
is a big country, and its influence in the world cannot even keep up with South Korea. People not only want the box office to have a box office, but also frequently attack the city at the three major film festivals, .
, do you think the reason for this is because the practitioners are not skilled enough? Obviously not. In recent years, the new generation of directors have still made good works such as "Hidden in the Dust" and "The Elephant Sitting on the Floor".
You say, is it because our actors are not dedicated enough? No, you can see that Haiqing spent more than half a year in the northwestern countryside for "Hidden Into the Dust". In order to practice Cao Guiying's walking posture, even his spine was bent sideways.
You say, is it because we lack quality audience? Not to mention, for the sake of "Hidden in the Dust", countless movie fans, even though they have seen it on the video platform, are still facing the difficulties of having fewer films and farther theaters. .
So, the question is, what is the reason?
I think censorship should be an important reason!
Tian Zhuangzhuang 's "Bird Singing" is an example. In an interview, he said: " has been filmed for two years, and there has been no censorship since it was sent to the film festival. As the respect of my peers, I can Accept any review result, but I really can't accept a result that I gave you more than two years and you didn't even say a word to me. This really makes me disappointed with the movie again. "
these years, "Tech "The reason" became the best reason for the movie not to be released. What is the "technical reason" is too mysterious, and no one can tell.
has the media to sort out the films that cannot be released normally in recent years, there are as many as dozens of them. And this is the movie that once attracted the attention of the public. For example, "Fireworks on the Plains" was originally scheduled to be released on December 24 last year, but it was hastily withdrawn in the first 4 days for unknown reasons!
In the movie to be released, there is also a " hiding behind the knife ", the filming time of this movie is:
2016!
for over 6 years! But it is definitely not the longest on the bottom of the warehouse.
In fact, Chinese movies also had a glorious era that attracted worldwide attention!
We often regard 1993 as the pinnacle of Chinese movies. At the Berlin Film Festival that year, two Chinese-language films won the Gold Award. This is groundbreaking at the Berlin Film Festival. In the same year, "Farewell My Concubine" won the Palme d'Or .
It is a pity that "The Wedding Banquet" and "Farewell My Concubine" cannot be released in the Mainland at all. If
is submitted for trial today, it will definitely be criticized for "promoting abnormal emotions".
A certain director once said that a movie with a score of 70 to 80, because of the censorship and minor revisions, does not affect the overall look and feel. However, for a classic work, any modification will have a fatal impact on its quality!
has also become a nightmare for many investors due to the negative news of artists.
Recently, Zhang Tianai net revealed that Xu Kaicheng was hotly searched. To be honest, I don't like to watch actresses tear up scumbags, I only worry about investors! According to media statistics, Xu Kaicheng has as many as 5 films and TV works waiting to be released.
If a film and television work faces the fate of not being released just because the actors have not dealt with their personal feelings well. What's behind this is not only the investment of hundreds and tens of millions of investors, but also the hard work of hundreds of thousands of people in the crew. You say, is this reasonable? No one can guarantee that the artist will be safe when the production starts.
Of course, we advocate "normal" emotional values. I also want to remind our artists not to make a fuss, they want art and more character.
However, it should be common sense to treat private life separately from works. The market is the market, and it should also become the norm.
Otherwise, how many people are willing to invest in the film and television industry in the cold winter? How can the vitality of China's film and television industry be rejuvenated?
