At this time, Su Bancheng thought for a while and felt that it was necessary to speak out: "I don't know much about some situations in the mainland. It's hard for me to say anything in a situation like this. I can't speak without investigation. Well, investigating a matter like this is very important, but no matter what it is, some mainland movies I have seen are still quite good.
At least some directors worked very hard, especially in the early 1990s. Mainland directors and actors really caught up with the good times. In that period, they were actually doing What a filmmaker should do is to work hard to make a good movie. If a filmmaker cannot make a good movie under such a situation and does not want to make a good movie, then At times like this, the filmmaker is actually not very qualified.
As a filmmaker, the first thing you have to do is to work hard to make a movie that people like. After all, the value of a movie depends on the box office. If the people like it, the box office will naturally be high. If the people don't like it very much under such a situation, then in such a thing, it is actually like this It¡¯s hard to say that it¡¯s not very good at all.
And at a time like this, if filmmakers insist on making movies for the common people, then there will be no problem in choosing a topic. Some filmmakers, not only from the Mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even those from Europe and the United States, are troubled by their choice of topics. What kind of movies should they make, and how should they make movies? These people are exploring.
In fact, such a problem is actually very easy to solve. In such a situation, things are actually very simple at this point. That is to say, in such a situation, in fact, The question they really thought about above is actually so simple. As long as you make movies for the common people and make movies they like to watch, they will naturally not worry about choosing a topic. I won¡¯t worry about how to make a movie.
Since you are making movies for the common people, then at times like this, you can just make whatever kind of movies the common people like to watch. Such a thing is actually a very simple truth.
And in such a situation, in the middle of such a situation, in fact, one of the issues they think of when raising a house is whether you will do something like this. That¡¯s all.
In Europe and the United States, those international-level directors never worry about what kind of movies to choose, because in such a situation, in fact, they themselves understand this very well. One thing is to say what kind of movie I want to make.
In fact, their idea is very simple, that is, to shoot movies that ordinary people like to watch. This is a very important point for them to become international directors.
What's more, at times like this, these directors even have their own teams to investigate what kind of movies ordinary people like to watch. This is why the big international directors can often shoot movies with high box office. Same reason.
What they fundamentally mean is that they attach great importance to such a situation. When it comes to such an issue, in fact, at such a time, what they fundamentally indicate about such a thing is actually this. A simple question.
Fundamentally speaking, this question is about your attitude towards movies. In the 1990s in the Mainland, this was actually what filmmakers did. At that time, the Mainland film market did not have so much trouble and news, such as hidden rules for directors and actors, and high salaries for stars. Well, such a thing is actually a very simple question. What they were thinking about at the time was how to make a good movie. It can be said that that movie era was considered a golden era for mainland movies. That's when a hundred flowers bloom truly.
In an era like that, a number of good movies actually appeared. Although there are no war movies like Schindler's List that you mentioned due to some reasons, movies are not limited to war movies, and other types of movies are also successful.
On this point, in that era, mainland films were doing quite well. At that time, some mainland films also won awards at the international level many times. In this wayAs for a question above, in fact, those filmmakers from the time of installation are the real filmmakers. They have no selfish motives and just want to make a good movie. Whether they are directors or actors, in that way In fact, everyone in this era was so passionate, and they put all their energy into movies.
With such an attitude, of course, good movies can be made. Although I don¡¯t know much about mainland movies, I clearly felt what kind of enthusiasm that kind of passion was at that time. At that time, I could actually feel the kind of passion that could melt everything. Passionate about work.
But now, to be honest, although under such circumstances, the investment of these people in such a movie is very large, but now, including Hong Kong, Taiwan, etc., these filmmakers are If it is true, it already means that the enthusiasm is no longer there.
When they make movies, whether they are directors, actors, or other filmmakers, in fact, when it comes to such a question, they all say that they are very selfish and have very personal thoughts, just for themselves to become famous and to be able to To get enough benefits from such a thing, in fact, it is very detrimental to the development of the film industry on such an issue. "
Although it is said that Su Bancheng does not have a good understanding of the mainland's film market, but if we look at the development of the mainland's film market from an overall perspective, then on such a problem, it is actually as follows At this time, there are still more people who will express such a problem.
When it comes to things like this, no matter what it is, in fact, what most people think about is their own thoughts and understandings when it comes to such a thing.
In fact, they make movies for their own private interests. What Su Bancheng said is very good. Whether they are from the mainland or Hong Kong and Taiwan, these movie makers now face such an issue. One problem that comes to mind is that at this time, their own thinking is wrong.
And it means that such a mistake can actually fundamentally lead to a true understanding of such a thing. When they think about such a problem, they often think about how they can be successful and how they can make a classic movie. However, such an idea is actually a very wrong idea from a fundamental level. of. It can be said to be putting the cart before the horse.
In this case, they ignored the foundation of a classic movie, or in other words, in this case, they did not expect to have a real understanding of such an issue.
And it¡¯s about a group of people who gave up on their original ideals when things were like this.
Perhaps it is not that they are willing to give up their ideals, but that the entire society has begun to change. Therefore, in such a situation, in fact, at such a time, what they really think of is this One of the problems with Zi is that such a fundamental change has occurred. At this time, in fact, today's filmmakers, whether they are from the mainland or Hong Kong and Taiwan, are actually a group of people who came out of the 1980s, or a group of people like them until now. It is still the mainstay of the industry. In fact, it is impossible to change such a thing no matter what.
But in such a situation, although the people are still the same group of people, in fact, their own ideals have undergone very big changes on such an issue. .
On such a problem, they themselves thought of such a thing, which is actually a little bit like this. On such a problem, they fundamentally guaranteed the fundamental change of such a thing. , at such a time, in fact, the movie they think of is no longer the simple concept they had when they first came into contact with movies.
When they first came into contact with an industry like film, their ideas at that time were actually very simple, that is, how to make a film that the people like under such a situation. This is what a filmmaker is. There should be awareness. But with the development of time, under such a situation, at such a time, such a problem that they thought of was actually such a simple matter. At such a time, they thought of such a problem. One of my questions aboveThe source no longer refers to the concept of movies they had when they first came into contact with movies.
At that time, they thought that making movies meant making movies that people liked. In fact, sanctions were the real meaning of movies.
But with the development of the times, in such a situation, in fact, from a fundamental expression on such a matter, one can clearly feel the fundamental change in such an issue.
These filmmakers now say that they are no longer thinking about how to make movies that the people like, but that they regard movies as a tool.
It has become a tool for their success. When it comes to such a thing, they themselves think of such a problem. It is such a simple thing. At such a time, they think of this. One thing is that it is such a simple question.
And to be honest, movies do have such a function, and they are a tool that can make filmmakers quickly become famous. When it comes to such a problem, what they actually think of is this It's such a simple thing, as long as you make a good movie, you will succeed.
But at this time, there is actually still a problem, that is, how do you make a good movie? In fact, such a thing is very simple, that is, you can make a movie that the people like. Only movies that the common people like to watch have box office sales and are truly good movies.
Therefore, their own problem in such a matter is very simple. The movie itself is a commodity. Whether you admit it or not, it is the case. High box office is the true success of a movie. That is to say, in such a matter, the whole problem is actually returning to the old path.
That means if you want to use movies as a tool, you have to make good movies. But if you want to make a good movie, you must at least pay attention to one thing about such a thing, that is, whether the people will like it or not. Only movies that are truly made for the people will be liked by the people.
Therefore, such a thing is actually a very contradictory thing. When it comes to such an issue, in fact, their own thinking is already wrong, because in such a situation , It can be said that almost all domestic filmmakers have made a mistake.
It¡¯s the same whether it¡¯s from the Mainland, Hong Kong or Taiwan. They all think about how they can succeed. The films they produce are indeed more gorgeous than the last, and the investment is bigger, but in this situation There are at least very few, if not very rare, classic movies.
What is a classic movie? It means that people are interested in watching it at least three or five times without getting tired of it. And if they watch it again ten or eight years later, they will still be interested in watching it. In this way One of Zi¡¯s movies is actually a classic movie.
For example, it¡¯s Shining Red Star. Decades later, it¡¯s still very classic when I watch it again. Red Star Accompany Me to Fight and Little Bamboo Pai River in the Middle of the River are also classic movie songs that are still very classic when sung today, decades later. Infectious, this is the performance of classic movies.
And in such a situation, it is actually a classic movie like Titanic. As a former super blockbuster and the world's box office champion, it is fundamentally reflected in such a thing. Everything about a successful movie like this is shown.
This guy Lao Ka just caught everyone¡¯s love of nostalgia and hoped for a classic movie like this to appear, so Titanic appeared.
Large-scale production, high-intensity early-stage publicity, and the ability to cater to the tastes of the common people under such circumstances have all made it a classic among classics and a box-office champion of world movies. When it comes to such a question, they actually think of such a question, which is their own understanding of their own thoughts at such a time. The fundamental cost of such a thing is that it is such a simple thing.
At this time, one of the things they think of is that they are talking about such a simple problem. It is not about how they can achieve results. Of course, achieving results is one aspect. They are always stuck on such a thing. Definitely one of the top masters in the world, but at such a time, Titanic appeared at the right time, which made it a classic.And speaking of a question like this, in fact, the theme song of Titanic still remains in my heart, and Celine Dion¡¯s singing is also soul-stirring. It has a feeling of lingering around for three days, with the lingering lingering feeling. of.
And it¡¯s talking about such a problem. In fact, when they think about such a problem, they are talking about something that they fundamentally change at such a time. That is to say, Disaster movies can also be shot so beautifully and so touchingly.
At this time, the question they thought of was actually such a simple matter.
People like it, that¡¯s it. This is the real secret of Titanic¡¯s success. And it is precisely because there is such a foundation. Therefore, when it comes to a question like this, in fact, at this time, if Titanic was remade into a 3D version more than ten years later, it would still have such a big influence and it would still be a classic. of classics.
On a matter like this, I have to say that this guy Lao Ka did a pretty good job. It¡¯s unacceptable to be dissatisfied. Even this guy Lao Ka is quite a jerk sometimes when it comes to talking and doing things, but in terms of movies He is indeed a genius.
