1286. scale problem
Hearing Wang Yifan's words, Zhou Zhan looked like a confidant.
"You are right. It's not that literary and artistic movies must be large-scale. But in many cases, literary and artistic movies need to expose some dark side of society, so they really need a large scale. In China, there is no need to think about it, and they can't pass the review even if they are filmed. So, I hope to try it in Hollywood." Zhou Zhan said with a smile.
"Actually, when filming "The Scarlet Sun", I was always very cautious. Many of the things were very careful, for fear of crossing the line, but even so, I still couldn't escape the big scissors. The version exhibited by Cannes and the domestic version are completely different from the version!" Zhou Zhan complained.
In fact, Wang Yifan understood what Zhou Zhan said very well.
Many people often criticize that domestic films and literary movies are not as good as movies, such as the "Day Fireworks" in their previous life. Many people watched the domestically released version, but ended up complaining.
But in fact, the overseas version of this movie is indeed completely different from the domestic version.
I have to say that in this regard, the big scissors do have certain responsibilities.
Of course, every country has its own different rules, but many times, dancing in shackles will indeed suppress their creative abilities.
Usually what I took was like, but as a result, some key large-scale scenes were cut off, and the movie became a different look.
This is something that can't be done.
In fact, there are also some excellent literary and artistic films in China.
But most of the time, you have to look for the uncut version.
At the same time, there are many sensitive subjects, and you can’t even think about taking photos in China.
For example, some Hollywood or the three most popular lgbt movies in Europe, don’t think about it in China.
"This is normal. In Hollywood, there are actually their unspoken rules. Even if there is no black movie, you will not be able to participate in the Academy Awards selection." Wang Yifan said with a smile.
There is no such rule in this world at present, but there is indeed such a rule in the past life.
It can be said that it is simply a big deal of the world.
Black people are all glass-hearted, and some movies adapted from historical events are even used. There are no black people in them, but after watching the black people, they protested the same way. Why are there no black people? Are you discriminating?
Zhou Zhan asked in surprise when he heard this, "Not it?"
Wang Yifan nodded and said, "It's very much!"
"So, this is normal. Every country has its own set of restrictions. Hollywood is not as enlightened as you think. It's just that I haven't experienced it and don't know it. We think it's weird, but people are used to it."
"In fact, there are already many commercial movies with such things. There must be black people, and even black people cannot be the ultimate villain, etc. There are more and more in Hollywood. It is not that there cannot be one, but if you don't follow it, then there will definitely be some trouble in the end." Wang Yifan continued.
Zhou Zhan nodded.
"Of course, to be honest, these are not problems. Hollywood can indeed allow movies of relatively large scale. Director Zhou can try them!" Wang Yifan said with a smile.
"So do Director Zhou have any ideas?" Wang Yifan asked again.
"For thriller crime, when I was filming "The Scarlet Sun", I checked a lot of information. I think I can try more in this direction. I wonder if Director Wang has a suitable script for this aspect?" Zhou Zhan thought about it and said.
Wang Yifan nodded. It was not surprising that Zhou Zhan had such an idea.
In fact, many times, the director’s idea is not a tree without roots, it does not appear suddenly. Most of the time, it is like thinking about something on the day and dreaming about it at night, because he comes into contact with something and then develops an expanded association.
Although the theme of "The Scarlet Sun" is not a crime but a redemption, it itself is caused by a massacre of family destruction.
This is the biggest difference between literary and artistic film directors and commercial film directors.
Commercial film directors usually do not look at the details of a certain event or similar event.
However, literary and artistic film directors need to pursue details.
Wang Yifan actually has a movie that is quite suitable for Zhou Zhan.
Zhou Zhan has always done a good job in combining art and business.
"Director Zhou, have you known about many serial murders in the United States?" Wang Yifan thought about it and asked.
Zhou Zhan nodded and said, "I have indeed understood some things. Why did Director Wang suddenly mention this?"
"Is Director Wang's script related to this?" Zhou Zhan asked in confusion.
Wang Yifan nodded and said, "There are not only many serial murder cases in the United States, but also many unsolved cases that have not been solved. Because of different systems and different social environments, their side can be said to be often a breeding ground for sin."
"They are not like the Sky Eyes that can be seen everywhere in our country. When investigating, they are not like the law enforcement agencies in our country. Therefore, they have many crimes every day, but they are really cracked but not even half of them can achieve."
"Because they have to solve cases, and the more complex the case is, the higher the cost of solving cases."
"Many Chinese people watch crime dramas and case-solving dramas over there, and think that the level of case-solving in the United States is very high and the level of forensics is even more advanced. But in fact, they ignore one thing, that is, the difference between the number of crimes they occur every day and the number of investigators!"
"In our country, there are requirements for law enforcement agencies to solve murder cases. Although some cases are still unsolved, the rate of murder cases is at the highest level in the world."
"Because of our domestic environment, we have the largest number of law enforcement personnel in the world, and the cost of crime in our domestic is also higher. The cost of law enforcement departments to solve cases. In order to solve cases, many times, we don't think so much at all!"
"But in North America, why do they have the highest level of forensics? Because they have too many cases, and the crimes that occur every day can even exceed the number of our Chinese people in the whole year. There is nothing else, but I can only do it."
"What is even more difficult to understand is that in our country, the people are deeply disgusted by murderers or serial killers. In addition, our official propaganda and public opinion positive guidance, so generally speaking, there will be no situation of beautifying criminals."
"But in the United States, because of their so-called human rights, so-called freedom of speech and freedom of public opinion, many times, public opinion reports are completely based on the public's concerns and topics, in other words, they have no moral integrity!"
"They can even deify a certain criminal, murderer!"
