1300. Because you are the director
"Double-standard dog!" Li Zhen couldn't help but complain.
"Who do you say is a double-standard dog? Am I wrong? Isn't the movie "Wolf Warrior" a bad thing that doesn't allow others to say a bad thing? As long as you criticize, there are a bunch of comments below that say they are harsh on foreigners, and they say they are harsh on domestic movies and relaxed on Hollywood movies." Chen Can said angrily.
"Haha, what you call criticism is not free, praise is meaningless. So, can I say that if praise is not free, then criticism is worthless?"
"Your criticism is your freedom, but others agree with it, there are freedom to praise this movie, and there are also freedom to criticize you. Why, those who disagree with your point of view are just blocking your criticism? What are you embarrassed to say? You are not allowed to say a bad thing, and you are blocked, or what's wrong? What do you say about yours, others scold them? Is this why you are not free?" Li Zhen said disdainfully.
In fact, the so-called criticism is not free and praise is meaningless. It can be said that many film critics often say it when they are siege by the public.
"You are making a point of being unreasonable. Our criticism is based on criticism, while the abuse of those of them is based on unfounded abuse." Chen Can said authentically without being outdone.
"Haha, what you call basis is your own standard, so do you know what other people's standards are? Why do you like to watch movies with such patriotism? Why is it just a shallow view? Why is it just a mistake? Promoting patriotism, or, as a Chinese, is it wrong to be a patriotism?"
"Okay!" At this time, Wang Fu spoke.
Although Li Zhen and Chen Can were both angry, they still stopped quarreling.
"You two can be left to discuss the disputes after class. What we are going to say now is not this. It's off topic." Wang Fu did not comment on both of them.
"You are about to graduate this year and are all adults, so it is normal to have your own ideas, and it is normal to have disagreement." Wang Fu said with a smile.
"I know some people don't think of "Wolf Warrior", but today we are not going to analyze the artistic achievements of this movie, but the reason why any movie can succeed is always the reason for its success. Any movie can sell well, and it also has its advantages."
"So what are the advantages of "Wolf Warrior"? In today's class, we will not talk about technical things, nor will we discuss artistic things, because the movie "Wolf Warrior" is always a commercial movie."
"Someone just said that "Wolf Warrior" is at best an assembly line work, and it is not wrong to say that. So while you think so, should you also be curious? Since it is just an assembly line work you think is not much better than many other works, why does this movie get such a high box office? Why are there so many praises?"
"You will no longer be students, you will also become directors, so should you think about this issue more?"
"Li Nannan, tell me." Professor Wang Fu saw a female student raising his hand and stopped immediately, indicating that she could speak.
"Professor Wang, is the judging standard for a good movie only box office? Many good movies often have bad box office, but some bad movies often sell well..." This female student named Li Nannan is also a literary student.
In other words, in fact, most academic directors did not think about taking the commercial film route at the beginning.
There are often two reasons.
The first reason is that the education they receive, what they teach in classrooms, and what they teach in textbooks are often more artistic.
Subtle influence, they will be more inclined toward literary and artistic movies.
The second reason is that in fact, commercial films are never said to be lower than literary films for a director.
But it's the opposite.
The threshold for commercial movies is actually higher!
Wang Fu smiled and said, "I believe many of you have the doubts about Li Nannan."
"So let's talk about what movies are considered good movies! Movies with high box office? Or movies that win awards?" Wang Fu looked at everyone with a smile.
This time, Li Zhen was also a little confused.
In fact, he really wants to say that although box office is not the only criterion for measuring movies, at least box office can explain many problems.
But as Wang Fu said, is a good movie with a high box office? A good movie that wins an award?
"Actually, in my opinion, the first thing to determine is the position!" Wang Fu said to these students in the director department who are about to graduate.
"Wolf Warrior" has just caused a lot of controversy among you. Some students like Li Zhen believe that "Wolf Warrior" can achieve such a high box office, which is worthy of it."
"There are also classmates like Bu Dong and Chen Can who think "Wolf Warrior" is not a good movie."
"In fact, you all have preset positions. Each of you, including me, actually has your own positions."
"The box office of "Wolf Warrior" can have such a high box office. First of all, at least, we can be sure that this is definitely not a bad movie!" Professor Wang Fu's eyes swept over Bu Dong and Chen Can this time!
"I know you may have studied the old classic movies in Europe and the United States for a lot of research, so I think that commercial movies, commercial popcorn movies like "Wolf Warrior" are useless!"
"But first of all, your position is wrong. You are not ordinary audiences, you are not film critics, you are directors!"
"When you look at any movie, I hope that the first thing you think of is not this movie or whether it is a bad movie, but to watch it seriously and think seriously whether this movie is worthy."
"Director He Jun is your senior. To put it bluntly, you have one, no one is qualified to say that his movie was not well made! Of course he is not perfect, and "Wolf Warrior" is not a perfect movie," said Mr.
"But as directors, the first thing you should think about is whether there is any desirable thing in this movie? Those who say that this movie is useless, I would like to advise you to take back your meaningless pride. After leaving the school gate, you will no longer be the so-called pride of heaven, and you will also become directors!"
"I'm very disappointed that you will be jealous of different opinions about a movie, and I'm also very pleased that you have your own ideas."
"But I hope to teach you the last lesson before you step out of this campus!"
"Any movie, whether it is an award-winning or a high box office, as long as there is one, the movie will definitely have advantages and is worth learning from, rather than looking at it from a critical perspective! You are directors, so you need to look at the movie in a way that finds advantages, rather than criticizing."
"Because your criticism is of no benefit to yourself! It cannot improve your own level!"
