Director Kai Ge University…

It's quite embarrassing recently.

"The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain"...

Film critic Magasa has a saying that makes sense:

For some directors, artistic talent is a constant total.

If you take too much in front of it, you will be in a state of overdrawn in the second half of your life. Director Chen's creation from "Loess Land" to "Farewell My Concubine" to "Jing Ke's Assassination of Qin King", for more than ten years of creation are fierce and vivid, regardless of success or failure. However, after "Along with You", after "Wuji", to "The Orphan of Zhao", and then to the current "The Taoist priest Goes Down the Mountain", it feels like the overlord comes out of Gaixia. No matter how hard he fights to restore the decline, every step is just approaching Wujiang!

It’s true that “The Legend of Demon Cat” has its own form, but “White Porridge Meteor” simply doesn’t talk about the basic realistic logic!

Of course, he doesn't lack the floor washing!

There is no shortage of capital pursuit. No matter how bad it is, you can still serve as a mentor with Xiao Si!

By the way, I will bring my wife's artist...

Worker Brother Kai!

Anyway, he has fallen behind from a big front-line director...

There is neither commercial achievements nor outstanding movies, but no matter what, they are also the winner of the Palme d'Or. This kind of dialogue between Li Mi should always be invited!

Seeing that Shen Mengxi didn't say anything, Chen Dong advised him: "I think it's better for you to go..."

"What's wrong?"

"How come you are also the pride of the film school!"

"…when?"

"On the 28th, I heard that his new movie "Billy Lynn's Midfield War" uses 120 frames, 4K, 3D technology..."

Shen Mengxi nodded: "I know this."

By the way, I added: "Any movies that use technology and special effects to promote are either the story is not told properly, or the story itself is boring and does not please the market!"

Chen Dong subconsciously asked: "Avatar?"

“…”

One tip for resigning every day?

Shen Mengxi was speechless, and Chen Dong quickly changed the topic: "Don't you be optimistic about this movie?"

"It's not a question of whether it's optimistic or not. "Boyant Pi" overdraws Li Mi's thoughts too much. He is a little addicted to technology now... and he has determined that 120 frames is the future of the movie!"

"Do you think so?"

Shen Mengxi shook her head: "Who knows!"

...

The essence of a movie is pure in a viewed form!

It has been born for more than a hundred years, but this has not changed.

There is a topic: What will the movie look like in the future?

It should be a technological innovation that allows the audience to feel immersive, such as being able to feel the smell, feel touch, free viewing, etc. In short, there is more sense of participation.

These technologies have begun to emerge now.

For example, interactive experience...

As early as the 1967 Canadian World Expo, there were the earliest interactive movies - audiences need to use button selections to determine the plot direction at key plots.

But it has not developed. One of the important reasons is the limitations of technology.

Voting to add buttons to the cinema seat determines the plot direction. Not only is the experience single, but a small number of viewers will not be able to choose the direction they like, and they will definitely not achieve the expected interactive effect.

With the advancement of carriers, the main terminals of content consumption have begun to shift to small screens, that is, on smartphones. Interaction has room for further development. Netflix has interactive dramas such as "Black Mirror", and Tencent has also made "The Last Moving Taoist"...

Of course, the movie won't disappear!

As the audience's aesthetics improve, the public's demand for culture is gradually becoming stronger.

Art films should see new peaks!

As for 120 frames…

Not much meaning!

The movie loses its essence and definition in this ultra-high definition. The words that were originally related to the movie, such as dream, upside down, burning, mystery, splendor, sadness, contradiction, etc., were all taken away by numbers.

What is the difference between the so-called "immersive digital experience" and high-definition TV?

...

Chen Mengxi agreed to attend the exchange meeting, and Chen Dong left.

The executive producer ran over again: "Director..."

"What's wrong?"

"Someone is looking for it!"

"Who?"

"Jia Zhangke and Marco Muller..."

"who?"

Chen Mengxi suspected that he had heard it wrong...

Old Ja and Marco Muller?

He is not next to these two people at all!

Marco Muller was the chairman of the Venice International Film Festival before 2011…

Chen Mengxi has never participated in Venice. Although he knows Lao Ma, he has no personal relationship at all...

Not to mention Jia Zhangke, Chen Mengxi has been criticizing the sixth generation back then!

"Hao Xiu is because of Pingyao International Film Festival, they want our movie to open!"

"…ah?"

Chen Mengxi was a little hesitant...

When the project of "Invisible Guest" was launched, Chen Mengxi sent an email to Giles Jacob, saying that he had a movie and was planning to narrate it with the Rashomon structure. The latter was very interested and directly booked tickets to the main competition unit - Chen Mengxi is a direct descendant of Cannes. Even a pure commercial film like "Detective Chinatown" was screened in Cannes, and the organizer used the highest etiquette and was screened in Lumiere Hall!

Moreover, next year marks the 70th anniversary of Cannes...

A Mou has "Pain and Glory", while Chen Mengxi has "Invisible Guest"...

How great!

Now, Pingyao Film Festival is here to grab the film...

Chen Mengxi didn't really want to agree.

"You go and tell them, and I have promised Jacob to bring the movie to Cannes..."

"…Okay," the executive producer hesitated: "Director, or you'll go and tell them in person?"

"…OK!"

...

Lao Jia wants to start a film festival, and it is not just a niche film festival...

In fact, Pingyao International Film Festival has a unique temperament since its birth. This temperament comes from Jia Zhangke, from the landmark of Pingyao Ancient City, and perhaps also from the curatorial arrangements of artistic director Mark Muller.

Independent, literary, niche movies…

It's its symbol!

But Lao Jia wants to be bigger, but not niche!

How to make it bigger?

The fastest way is to let Chen Mengxi join...

Where there is Chenmeng Creek, the public will pay attention to it!

You said, why not look for traffic?

Invite Yang Xiaomi and others to serve as image ambassadors or promotional ambassadors...

Is that still a film festival?

It’s better to call it the Golden Eagle Award!

"Director Jia..."

"Mr. Marco Muller!"

Chen Mengxi walked out enthusiastically...

"Director Chen..."

The three of them communicated directly in Chinese - Marco Muller's fluent Chinese mouth.

In fact, the Venice Film Festival is quite disgusting. The new chairman Alberto Barbera said in person: The film festival provides possibilities for producers.

We have full freedom to enjoy films from all over the world, including those countries where strict censorship mechanisms are not allowed to flow freely and be viewed.

What does it mean?

It is to encourage directors from third world countries to make some banned films!

So, in recent years, Chinese movies have not participated in Venice much...

"I've promised Jacob would take the movie to Cannes...so..."
Chapter completed!
