my time as a director

Generally speaking, the male and female protagonists are in a cold war. The man meets a young and beautiful girl who likes him, and the woman also meets the playmate who has always liked him since childhood.

However, the difference is that men start dating new women, drinking, chatting, and learning to dive, as if entering a new life.

And women occasionally stay with their flower protectors to vent their emotions and recall the past.

This difference made the female audience very unhappy, scolding men for being ruthless, saying that men only need a second to forget the past and hold other people's hands, but most women probably take a long, long time to really come out.

Fortunately, the box office was low and not many people watched it, otherwise there would be another quarrel on the Internet.

Except for these two movies, there are no more movies that break a million dollars in a single day, all of which are three-day trips to theaters.

In the new week, there are no unnecessary disturbances. Li Qian also continued his normal promotion and roadshow.

On Monday, the capital of the box office is Shudu.

In the morning, I accepted an exclusive interview with West China Metropolis Daily, one of the most influential media in Southwest China.

In the interview, Li Qian talked about the significance of Truman's world to reality and life.

"Actually, I have often said a sentence before, everyone will have their own understanding when watching movies, and what they understand is their own, which has nothing to do with what I want to express.

I have seen many online audiences’ opinions, and they are generally the same. In fact, when I was creating this movie myself, I just wanted to tell the world most of us live in through such an absurd story.

The real society is very complicated, and not all are well-intentioned. Everyone has faced falsehood and deceit. This is a common siege all over the world. If the audience can see their own shadow from a certain plot and think about it, what should they do? , I think this is enough. "

The host also has a better understanding of Li Qian's personality, and he seldom preaches, which is a characteristic of Li Qian. Even when I was not the God of Medicine, I didn't talk about any major principles.

"Director Li, I have watched the movie four times. Truman is one of my favorite movie characters. Sometimes I feel that the meaning of life is all in the movie. Since childhood, we have been influenced by family, school, company, and society. Confined by this invisible wall."

Li Qian shook his head and said with a smile, "Actually, the size of the world depends on how much each person's heart can carry, just like Truman didn't overcome his fear at the beginning, and he didn't even dare to go out to sea on a business trip.

The only thing restricting him is himself. He didn’t even dare to get on the boat, and he flinched before the program group blocked him. The reality is the same. There is no absolute freedom in life, but everyone can fight for freedom and get what belongs to him. It just depends on whether you have the courage or not. "

"After several years of filming, I feel like I'm becoming a philosopher."

After an event, Li Qian made a joke.

"Isn't that right? You have photographed all kinds of themes, such as family affection, children's education, reality, science fiction, friendship, and life. You understand all the relevant principles thoroughly." Deng Chao also laughed.

"Come on, it's actually quite tiring, but if you don't talk about it, there's nothing to talk about," Li Qian shook his head, talking a lot, and it's quite tiring.

Continue to the next scene and meet the audience in the cinema.

Every road show can always meet all kinds of audiences. The one who was not in the same dimension as ordinary people last time is typical.

This time, I also met a special audience. After being clicked, he looked at Zhang Wei angrily and said loudly.

"Director Li, everyone in the movie is disgusting, but the one who hates the most is Truman's good friend Zhang Wei. In my heart, Truman's wife and parents are just extras. He has never loved his wife, and he has no spiritual communication with his parents.

But for Zhang Wei, this buddy whom he has known since he was a child, Truman has given his true feelings. Every time when Truman is confused, he will talk to him, but he has brainwashed Truman. Do you feel sorry for Truman in the slightest? "

After finishing speaking, the audience said with a look of grief and indignation. "It's a stone that's going to be covered in heat!"

The words were addressed to Li Qian, but he kept looking at Zhang Wei, which made Zhang Wei very embarrassed.

Li Qian smiled, "Or let Zhang Wei talk about his role."

Zhang Wei, who was tapped, quickly took the microphone and stroked his train of thought.

Although he was not well prepared, Zhang Wei still understood the role he played very thoroughly. He smiled slightly and looked at the questioning audience.

"The character Zhang Wei is me. Director Li thinks my name is common enough and representative, so the character has the same name as me. In fact, this character is essentially the same as Truman, a very representative character.

First of all, this character is the only one in the movie. He first establishes a friendship with Truman and is a true friend, and then he is told the truth. He is the only one in the movie. When facing Truman, he will feel guilty and guilty It's not like everyone else is dealing with Truman. "

"What is a real friend? He didn't regard Truman as a friend at all!" The audience retorted.

"That's not the case. He has known Truman since elementary school. After he and Truman became friends, he was selected by the program crew to play an important role in this show. Before knowing the truth, they were very pure friends , It’s just that after growing up slowly, he was told the truth by the program team and asked him to act, so he cooperated with the crew.” Zhang Wei explained.

Children have too many uncertainties. When they were young, those classmates must not know the truth, otherwise, they would have been betrayed long ago.

"Then he doesn't have to act. He has deceived Truman for so many years. From the moment he agreed to act, he has not regarded Truman as a friend!" The audience still insisted on their own ideas.

Li Qian smiled and answered for Zhang Wei, "Everyone knows how powerful the program group is in the movie. The income is higher than the GDP of many small countries. Such a huge interest group cannot be resisted by an ordinary person. , and it is also possible that since he entered the studio when he was a child, his parents signed a contract with the program group.

In fact, to put it mildly, everyone must have seen Xiangjiang police and gangster movies. Whether it is the underworld or the police, they will send undercover agents to each other. Zhang Wei's role can be viewed in this way. He regards Truman as a friend, but he can't help himself.

The reason why he continued to act after he knew the truth was because of the pressure from the show crew, he didn't have the courage to tell the truth, and he comforted himself in his heart.

To put it bluntly, when people don’t have the courage to do something, they will always find various reasons to persuade themselves, so that they don’t feel guilty, and lie to you while feeling guilty. I think many people will have this kind of experience. "

Having said that, the audience suddenly realized, "So, Zhang Wei is also another "Truman", and he is also a controlled person!"

You can understand it as you like. The difference between movies and TV dramas is that there is a lot of blank space, and everyone can see different things.

Li Qian took the crew to run around the country, and the time passed day by day, and soon came to December 12th.

In 1942, the two films of Blood Droplet were officially released.

It was just released, and under the huge publicity offensive of Huayang Media, it was very lively.

"1942 Zhengzhou Premiere, the audience stood up and applauded, Ma Xiaogang was moved to tears!"

"1942 deserves everyone to enter the cinema. We should know the history, remember the history, and cherish the present better. This is a dark and warm movie. Ma Xiaogang is a director worthy of respect!"

"Hua people who can't "eat" can't hit the Chinese nation with natural disasters!"

"A group of real disaster victims in 1942 and the epic of China they bear!"

1942 concluded its day of screenings amidst acclaim.

At 12 o'clock in the morning, Huang Zhongjun was anxiously waiting at home for the release of the box office.

Since the daytime, he has been paying attention to the situation of the theater, but the feedback he has received is not very good. The attendance rate of many places at night is not as good as that of Truman's World.

Huang Zhongjun faintly had a bad premonition, and had been on tenterhooks for two or three hours.

A quarter of an hour later, he received the email on time, and he couldn't wait to open it immediately.

Looking at it, the number above made him stunned.

2400 million

Carefully, staring at the numbers above with wide eyes, Huang Zhongjun almost fainted.

He slumped on the sofa, his eyes lost their luster.
