Chapter 471 His Majesty the Emperor of Chinese Movies - His Excellency the Bard

On June 12, 2005, "The Embroidered Spring Sword" was released and the week ended. In this game, the media said: "The sixth generation director draws his sword and the fifth generation director, and the collision between the old and new eras of Chinese films."

As expected, Han Qiao lost. According to the box office data of the national cinema line in one week statistics by China Film, in the past week, Wuji's total national box office was 36 million, and Xiuchundao's total national box office was 18 million.

It's not difficult to see.

Xiuchundao was crushed by Wuji, and his successor was weak. At the same time, the reputation of the two movies can also be seen.

Wuji ruled the mainstream media, representative of authority, and the eyes of elite culture. Wuji is a masterpiece of the bard who surpassed Farewell My Concubine.

The embroidered spring sword is full of boredom, vulgarity, bloody violence, and an "undesirable movie."

The undercurrent is surging.

At the Wuji celebration banquet, reporters gathered, and Han Qiao angrily called the minstrel and said, "Wuji, extremely boring."

Challenging "authority", firing the first shot and the second shot, followed closely behind.

June 13.

Southern Metropolis Daily published the latest report: "In the second weekend of June, the hottest market of Chinese films in the past three years, Wuji and Xiuchundao, the best of the fifth-generation director and the sixth-generation director, the peak showdown greatly stimulated the movie viewing craze of the general public..."

"While the box office is rising steadily, the difference between the two movies is also worrying. Where is the road to Chinese movies?"

"Wuji, director of the bard, borrows many metaphors to express destiny and love with his grand epic world and unique narrative techniques. We must admit that this is a beautiful film, with beautiful pictures, beautiful love, beautiful costumes, luxurious lineup and production. Wuji movie, worthy of film critics and experts: "Perfect Chinese movie."

"but."

"We must also admit that Wuji is an elite carnival, the emperor, duke, general of light, the emperor's favored woman, the love and hate in the clouds, fate, and the ants under the ground can only look up."

"It's not surprising that Wuji is not a movie for the audience from beginning to end. Wuji and Shakespeare's work "Markbet" have many similarities. The metaphorical expression in the movie is completely the expression of Western opera. To this day, in China, how many people have watched opera? How many people have heard opera?"

"This is the victory and the sadness of Wuji."

"The Xiuchundao, director of Han Qiao, is also a rare masterpiece. If Wuji is an "elite movie", then Xiuchundao is a complete "grassroots carnival".

"The civil servants at the bottom have an old mother and a few brothers. The woman they like is a prostitute. They save money to redeem him, go with the flow and let it do whatever they want."

"Han Qiao was born in grassroots, and his movies all have a smell of mud. People are on the road, and they are unknown. This time, the embroidered spring sword is the same."

“Lucky.”

"Han Qiao has grown up, breaking out from the relationship between people, looking at the flow of the times, and being involuntarily alive."

“I’m very grateful.”

"This movie has no preaching meaning, so we can easily and without thinking, escape safely from the busy life for a short time, enjoying the love, hate and love that was in the late Ming Dynasty."

“It’s a pity.”

"Grassroot movies are never accepted by the elites. They don't understand why some people want to live for money. They don't understand why a prostitute tries his life to save him. They don't understand how a person can be so indecent."

“It’s so indecent.”

"It's not decent to fight, but it's even more indecent to use your teeth and nails."

"Dirty white clothes."

"The elites are the minority, and the grassroots are the majority, but the majority of grassroots can only be forced to accept the aesthetics of the minority of elites."

"so."

"Don't say that you can't understand Wuji, maybe it's time to reflect on why you are not General Guang, not the emperor, not the god, but just, put down your gun, and raised your gun, and soldier without choice."

Southern Metropolis Daily: Zhang Heng.

This report has a strong response because it is the first provincial newspaper, publishing not news that praises "Wuji", but from an objective perspective, analyzing the quality of the two movies.

Or say.

He pointed out in a tactful way: "Wuji is an elite movie, and his appreciation threshold is not something that ordinary people can cross."

after all.

In the whole Chinese movie, the bard said it was second, but no one dared to say it was first.

When Zhang Heng wrote the article, he did not dare to mention many criticism words at all, and he did not dare to mention a single word of criticism for the vocabulary of the bard.

The failure of Wuji movies is not the problem of the bard, but the problem of the audience.

You said you can't understand Wuji?

Why don’t you reflect on why you are not an “elite”? The movies watched by the Romans, and you, a cowherd in the countryside, join in the fun!

Zhang Heng wrote all night long and sent the manuscript to the editor-in-chief. He didn't go to work and fell asleep.

At noon, he was awakened by the phone in a daze. He was myopic. After a long time, he saw the caller clearly and his throat was hoarse: "Editor Zheng, what's wrong?"

"Old Zhang, stop sleeping. Wuji Opera House called and asked you to withdraw the newspaper that slandered Wuji and apologize on the report."

"What?" Zhang Heng was a little confused: "Apologize, what apologize?"

On the phone, Editor Zheng's voice was raised and his words were concise: "The bard has sued you!"

"What."

"I'm fucking." Zhang Heng's confused mind suddenly woke up, a kind of humiliation. He suddenly stood up, and said angrily: "Editor Zheng, you have reviewed the manuscript. We all know that there is no word to criticize him as a bard. If you withdraw it, why should you withdraw it?"

"I also want to apologize!"

"What am I writing? I scolded him. Why do I apologize?" Zhang Heng was full of anger: "I am a reporter, the reporter's pen. When will I be so unfree!"

"He minstrel is the emperor! He can only brag, not criticize."

"My damn, I haven't criticized him yet." Zhang Heng was convinced: "Can I have a little loose creative environment? I'm exhausted all day long, and I just hope to write some manuscripts to make some money. Either report or withdraw it. Damn, I still have to apologize now..."

"Old Zhang, calm down." Editor-in-chief Zheng advised: "Your journalist certificate has not been revoked yet. We should not write such words. There are legal risks. That, Xie Wanyi, you are not unclear, you have resigned from the newspaper."

"Prepare it." Editor-in-chief Zheng said: "The manuscript is withdrawn. Don't think too much about the rest. I publish an apology statement. If you are in a dilemma, we can find a smaller report."

"He is a big director, a big celebrity, our tabloid and a little reporter, I'm scared and apologized and don't cause trouble."

silence.

After a long time, on the phone, Zhang Heng said exhausted: "Okay, I apologize."

"But." Zhang Heng held his hair, angry and frustrated: "I want the biggest reward!"

June 14, 2005.

Southern Metropolis Daily, a relatively conspicuous location, published an apology statement: "I Zhang Heng, on June 13, 2005, published a report about Wuji. In the report, many unrenovated areas are quite inappropriate. Here, I would like to express my most sincere apology to the respected director of the Bard. Wuji, your Wuji, is truly a masterpiece. You are the best film director in the Chinese film industry. Your works are like a meteor, igniting my dry heart."

"The great director of the bard, you are really a well-deserved master in the Chinese film industry. I am sorry that I can't appreciate Wuji's beauty!"

funny.

Too funny, if life is a black and white Chaplin movie.

That moment.

It was enough to be a god. The newspaper was sent out, and almost clear about the whole story, all of whom looked subtle.

Then, absurdity arose in my heart: "What exactly is he going to do with a minstrel!"

"Is he a God?"

Before Wuji was released.

He coerced Southern Entertainment Weekly reporter Zhang Wanyi to leave. When Wuji was promoting, a little girl asked: "If the movie was not as successful as you expected", the bard was furious, regardless of the occasion or identity, and angrily scolded: "Your issue is very unfriendly."

He was even more reluctant to give in and wanted to "send a lawyer's letter", which scared the little girl to kneel down on the spot to apologize.

afterwards.

The little girl squatted alone in front of the press conference venue, holding her head and crying, helpless and pitiful.

Now.

Southern Metropolis Daily published Wuji's objective comments, but did not say good things.

Wuji's official actually called to ask for apologies to the report...

Could it be?

God’s majesty cannot be criticized by anyone!

This moment.

Even the staunch supporter of the bard dared not say: "The bard is right."

"Ha ha ha ha."

“Beautiful job!”

When Han Qiao saw the news, he suddenly laughed. It was pitiful to see the sky. Xie Wanyi and the young reporter were his bad hands.

But.

Southern Metropolis Daily, it’s really not. Lao Chen’s own personality is like this. He cannot accept any criticism at all, and even shows that he is not allowed to say that he is not good. This kind of domineering attitude is.
