Just talking about life experience, Director Feng can really be said to be inspirational!

There is an article on the Internet that is very true: I have been working hard for twenty years before I can sit with you and drink coffee...

As an outsider, he has also struggled for decades before he had the opportunity to make movies and TV series...

Unfortunately, they were all banned!

In that era, making movies was a privilege, and only major studios had the opportunity!

Then, he filmed "Party A and Party B" and became famous in one battle...

But a lot of people in the circle think this is not a movie, saying it is a collection of jokes...

Instead, he became more and more courageous in the battle, "Seeking Away", "Endless", "Big Name"...

Now that he is over 60 years old this year, it is probably the failure of "Private Customization", which has helped him regain his original intention and make art films!

However, what he believes in in his bones cannot keep up with the times!

In an era when a big country is rising, if you take out his stuff, maybe someone will see it, but it is not the mainstream after all...

Feng Xiaogang finished chatting and arrived at Amou…

Many people say that "Hero" is a work that follows the trend of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". He shook his head: "It's not. "Hero" was originally a Rashomon-structured art film with a budget of only a few million. When the movie was being prepared, Li Mi's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was released. I originally planned to give up, but Jiang Zhiqiang said that this theme is very popular, and helped introduce Liang Chaowei and Zhang Manyu. Finally, he found Li Lianjie... The lineup and investment have increased by a factor of magnitude. For the sake of beauty, even the horses in the film were baked into black, creating this milestone blockbuster!"

"Many people say that I created a Chinese blockbuster, but it's really not. The one with vision is actually Boss Jiang!"

Yin Hong changed the topic: "I heard that the director is producing a self-directed and self-acted work. Can you tell me?"

"This, ask Mengxi!"

Shen Mengxi finally had the opportunity to speak: "Well, it's called "Pain and Glory", which is a work based on the director's life experience. I originally planned to direct it, but I also wanted to make a serious movie... I have written the script outline, but the director said he really wanted to direct it himself, so he would direct it himself!"

"Pain and glory?"

"Semi-autobiographical...I can't reveal too much, this movie needs to be carefully savored!"

"Then we are looking forward to it..." Yin Hong continued, "What does Director Shen think of the movie?"

“Are you asking the movie itself or?”

"What do you think about 120 frames?"

Shen Mengxi looked at Li Mi and said, "From the perspective of a filmmaker, I certainly admire Director Li Mi's attempt... In fact, when I often watch movies, I just want the frame rate to be higher when I see the camera pulling a lot. There are too many shots in the movie that require high frames!"

"But from the audience's perspective, I think the audience does not need to understand the meaning of 120 frames, nor does it need to understand the future of the movie. They only care whether the movie is good or not, and whether it can impress them!"

"Sometimes I want to make some attempts, because I also feel that the drama form has been established long ago, and continuous breakthroughs in technology can also lead to the evolution of drama expression form... However, the drama form is fixed, and the content can also be innovative... Anyway, I will not regard 120 frames as the main direction for the time being..."

Li Mi continued: "Sometimes you choose a direction, not because it will definitely become the future, but because it may become... a different future!"

Chen Mengxi shook her head: "In fact, I personally think that 4K, 120 frames, and non-naked 3D will not be the future of movies. My own ideas, immersive VR or holographic theaters may be the mainstream of future movies. Of course, this is just my personal opinion..."

"Overemphasis on technology may lead to narrative deficiencies!"

Many people present didn't take it seriously...

Director Li Mi!

Lack of narrative?

How is that possible?

He was born into a script, so his early movies looked rougher than the scripts. After "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Brokeback Mountain", and "Boyant Pi", no one has ever picked out any problems with the video...

Narrative is his foundation!

...

"Many people recommend American industrial film production. In fact, the studio system of American films is very modeled, without any vitality, and cannot produce anything novel. On the contrary, the mainland is not only rich, but everyone is full of longing for movies and is not tired yet. This is very precious. I hope that Chinese films can be made and continue to develop healthily."

Chen Mengxi nodded: "Today's Hollywood movies are the world of professional managers. Apart from Disney, there are basically no bosses in several major companies. They are all professional managers. Professional managers have one characteristic, and there is the biggest difference between them and the founder's company. They can leave. So they receive high salaries, high annual salary, and they can't lose money if they work. Because the shareholders behind him are all investors, bankers, and financiers on Wall Street. So his requirement for him is profit. This is the problem brought by listed companies. We may face quarterly and financial reports."

"It is their goal not to lose money. Under this premise, don't expect them to come up with anything refreshing!"

"One of the things that these professional managers do most is to keep shooting sequels, sci-fi heroes, and anime heroes. This way you won't make mistakes, because these IPs are mature, and even IPs like Batman vs. Superman can be imagined. When Hollywood rose, it was a group of great film investors and producers who brought the movies from the East Sea to the West Coast and created the World Dream Factory. Hollywood was a global film supplier at that time."

"From this perspective, Chinese movies really have good opportunities!"

Zhang Yi also said: "Now the number and box office of Chinese films have increased, and the quality has always been something that everyone cares about. It depends on everyone's unremitting efforts. There will definitely be a reward, but it cannot be immediately. The quality of Chinese films will immediately improve significantly and comprehensively? It won't be that fast, this is culture. This requires hard work, clear thinking, and opportunities for historical development."

Feng Xiaogang wanted to interrupt, but he didn't know what to say...

Fortunately, Yin Hong took the initiative to ask about the circular composition of "I am not Pan Jinlian"...

"I watched the movie "Mommy" filmed by Canadian director Dolan. I was inspired by him, but he had made the movie square, so I couldn't shoot square. I told the photographer that I wanted to shoot round, and everyone opposed it at that time and said no, this was too offensive to the audience. This sentence made me very excited again because I really wanted to ‘offend’ the audience once. I have been serving the audience for many years, but now I really want to ‘offend’ the audience.”

“…”

What's so exciting about this?

Doesn’t it mean that there is no order without rules?

It seems that it is really time to promote it and add it!

Host Yin Hong: "Where is Director Chen, let's talk about your new movie? It is said that the filming has started?"

"It's all done if you're still a few shots. "The Invisible Guest", a crime film. I originally wanted Ning Hao to shoot it, but he fell in love with another script. Later, Gong Li said he wanted to work together, so I'll be the director..."

"So, is this drama for Gong Li?"

Several people, including Li Mi, all looked at A Mou...

Chen Mengxi explained: "I want to roster "Chinese Women's Volleyball Team". I always think that Teacher Gong Li is suitable for playing Lang Ping, but I invited her several times, but she didn't agree... So, first film "Invisible Guest"..."

"I have to praise Teacher Gong Li and Zhang Yi. I filmed "Invisible Guests". There were several scenes. I wrote several pages of lines. They all passed... I sat behind the monitor. I couldn't believe it. I watched it several times and then passed it! At that moment, I was thinking in my heart that there were two types of directors in this world, those who had filmed Gong Li and those who had never filmed Gong Li. I was lucky to belong to the former."

"The same is true for Zhang Yi. He is the kind of actor who gives him the script and the rest of the actors who can just look at him playing on his own will always bring you surprises!"

...

The final ending is left to Li Mi, who is still very humble: "If you don't like this movie, don't blame the technology, blame me if you want to blame!"

well…
Chapter completed!
