Chapter 1072 Speech (34)
“I feel like Lao Zhang has new vitality!”
"He likes new things and new stories... When he joined your company, I heard that you provided him with more than a dozen scripts at one time for him to choose from..."
Shen Xudong nodded and then explained: "We thought that he would prepare projects at the same time, but we really didn't expect that he would push forward at the same time...without taking a break!"
"Not only does he not take any rest, he often multi-tasks..."
Director Chen interjected: ""Parasite" is really lucky..."
"what happened?"
"If it had been a little longer, I probably wouldn't have let you show it!"
"...What I criticize is the gap between rich and poor in capitalist society..."
"It's not good for the country's image..."
Shen Xudong still wanted to make a few quibbles, but suddenly shut up. He remembered that even if "Parasite" won an Oscar, the movie still could not be seen on the planes of Korean Air, Asiana Airlines and other Korean airlines...
There are indeed R-rated scenes.
There is a cyan scene in it!
Very necessary!
In the traditional culture with relatively conservative Confucianism, most family members, especially elders and younger generations of the opposite sex, are shy about talking about sex, even in sex education.
In this context, the father and his family had to hide under the table and listen to what others said, and they were very close to their daughter. This kind of psychological torture was very severe.
The sexual intercourse between the two people on the sofa turned into their rape of the dignity of the family under the table.
This was also the most direct reason for my father’s violent murder later...
However, "Parasite" is indeed a bit unrealistic...
Many critics said, 'This movie is just to satisfy the middle class's fantasy of the upper and lower classes! '
Shen Xudong shook his head: "This is a fable. From the perspective of the movie itself, the camera position is stable throughout, the lighting and photography are very dazzling, the performance is stage-like, and the soundtrack is baroque string music. It almost completes the "audiovisual" aspect of the movie itself and successfully balances art. and business, this has set a very important benchmark for modern movies, even boring art films can still produce attractive business rhythms."
Li Xuejian also nodded: "This movie is really great... I feel like Zhang Yimou gave it all he had!"
"That's not the case. In fact, I prefer "Burning" and "Year, Month, Day"..."
""combustion"?"
"Based on Haruki Murakami's "Burning the Barn" and William Faulkner's "Burning the Barn"... During a delivery process, the young deliveryman Zhong Xiu was attracted by Xiaotong who was doing promotional activities on the sidewalk. Attracted by his charisma, the young girl had previously lived in the same neighborhood as him. Before traveling to Africa, she asked Jong-su to take care of her cats. After returning from the trip, Hye-mi introduced him to Ben, a man she was traveling with The mysterious man I met…”
Shen Xudong briefly talked about the plot of "Burning" and then said: "This story is more realistic and focuses on class..."
Director Chen looked at Shen Xudong with a complicated expression: "How did you come up with such a script?"
"Read more books..."
"So, you are awesome..."
"No, I just have more on my mind."
"I heard that you originally wanted to direct the script of "Burning"?"
Shen Xudong nodded: "Yes..."
"Why did you give it to Zhang Yimou?"
"Does he like it...and he has the ability to do better...and I am not very partial to this type of movie..."
The three of them chatted for a while and then went back to rest.Before leaving, Director Chen specially warned, 'You must think carefully about your speech tomorrow! '
……
Yes, Shen Xudong wants to speak...
He didn't show any politeness. He stood up and apologized first: "What I want to say is a bit sharp. Please don't take it personally. Just treat it as an emotional output."
"You tell me, I'll tell you the truth!"
After receiving the approval, Shen Xudong smiled: "Actually, this symposium is a continuation of the Yan'an Literature and Art Speech.
Many people don’t quite understand why the Yan’an Speech happened. I checked the information and found out that the background of the Yan’an Literature and Art Speech was the Lu Xun Art Institute at that time. People lived around it. However, they often performed behind closed doors in the auditorium. , observation skills.The common people criticized them as "closing the door to improve performance." Even when they went to the countryside to perform, they performed foreign programs. The common people complained that they could not understand or understand, and they were very dissatisfied.
This matter attracted the attention of the teacher..."
"I am also a writer. Although I have never joined the Writers' Association, I have a little knowledge of literature. What is literature and art?
According to the words of some of our writers, 'I have a prejudice that literary works should not whitewash reality, literature and art should expose darkness! '
Is this right?
On this issue, the teachers at the Yan'an Forum on Literature and Art have already said, "Should we praise it, or should we expose it?"This is a matter of attitude.What kind of attitude do we need?I say you need both. The question is who you are targeting. '
'Praising does not mean whitewashing. Praising must be based on facts. Whitewashing is pure fabrication. Likewise, criticism does not mean smearing. '
You see, what was said 80 years ago is still shocking now...
What is inside must be what is outside.Honesty in the inside, form in the outside.
Literary works can certainly expose darkness, but the key is where is the starting point?
Is it to make people think, educate the public, encourage people to make progress, and make the world a better place?Or is it for various personal selfish interests, or is it just to vent dissatisfaction and attack reality?
Different starting points will create different literary and artistic works.
From some works, everyone will feel the author's deep love for this land.
And other works are full of his own resentment, satire and indifference towards society.
There are many so-called "criticisms" that are more of a criticism of the author from a superior position. Everyone is intoxicated by my sober sense of detachment, and I treat the people at the bottom like pigs and dogs at every turn.
The author seems to want to show his detachment and hatred of the people at the bottom, but in my opinion, it is just self-absorption.
At the current stage, Chinese literature is something that is "monopolized" by a few people at the top. Emperors, generals, talented men and beauties, beautiful people, and people from the lower reaches of the country. What is good or bad is all decided by a small number of people.
What can become literature and art, no matter how straightforwardly expresses one's own thoughts, loses the emotional resonance with the broadest masses of the people. It may be popular for a while, but it has no core value worthy of being passed down by the times.
Objectively speaking, if literature does not go through repeated chewing by the people and does not go through the process of "a thousand people have a thousand Hamlets", it can only be a phenomenon at best and cannot become art.
Therefore, I won’t write anything anymore. What I write will become a best-selling novel. In the eyes of many experts, it has no literary value..."
"The same goes for movies. The threshold seems to be very high. If they say it's good, it's good. If they say it's not good, then it's not a thing.
Therefore, many people say that in the film industry (juan)... you have to be in the juan first to have the right to be evaluated and evaluate others!Major awards have become a way for industry elites to dominate the field...
For example, last year's film "Fire", to put it bluntly, when it comes to the great significance of China's film industrialization and future development, other films that were nominated and won awards this year, all put together, may not be comparable. A movie called "Earth Fire", but "Earth Fire" didn't win an award, and it wasn't even nominated..."
"The biggest problem in the domestic film and television industry is that a group of old-fashioned people and industry vested interests have long had absolute say. They hold on to their own old aesthetic habits and have been praising works recognized by small circles for more than ten years. They have no regard for industrialization. , future trends and public reputation are all turning a deaf ear.”
"Let me be honest, the Oscars in the United States are dominated by old people and are not very interested in new things. But at least they know how to set up awards for industrialization, right? Our practitioners here talk about industrialization when they talk about it. How come they don't even have exclusive awards? Does it make sense that there is no industrialization award?”
