Seclusion in the Entertainment Industry

Qin Huaizhang actually had no intention of making another movie, but obviously, because of the influence of Crazy Stone, he was holding back his breath.

To be honest, when he first expressed his stance on Crazy Stone, he had no idea what kind of movie it was. Moreover, he was also misled by other people's information at the time, thinking that it was really a short film. The crew of a bad movie was cheating money, so he made that comment out of anger.

However, he didn't expect that his words would be quoted constantly, and in the end they would even be used to kill someone with a borrowed knife, which made him a little angry.

But what made him even more angry was that Crazy Stone turned out not to be a bad movie at all as he predicted. On the contrary, it had been recognized by the upper-level media, and it seemed that it could really become a low-cost counterattack film. 's representative work.

If this is the case, then he has been completely slapped in the face.

As a veteran in the film industry, Qin Huaizhang has actually experienced a lot of ups and downs, but he never expected that he would actually capsize in this kind of thing, so the anger in his heart boiled up and he couldn't extinguish it no matter what.

The older a person gets, the more like a child in temperament. Although Qin Huaizhang did not make any new comments about Crazy Stone after that, it does not mean that he has forgotten about it.

So, in the end, he suddenly announced that he would participate in Lin Yueliang's New Year's gangster movie Vacuum!

In his opinion, as long as there is a movie related to him that can beat Crazy Stone, his mood can be straightened out.

As the director of Vacuum, Lin Yueliang was naturally very excited that Mr. Qin Huaizhang could make a cameo. He himself comes from the southern entertainment industry, and most of the actors used in this film are also celebrities in the southern circle. Everyone Deep down in my heart, I was also secretly holding back my energy, as if I wanted to fight for the southern entertainment circle again.

Therefore, this Vacuum is also full of energy at this time, ready to fight a bloody road in the New Year's Day!

…

In early December, The Longest Night and The Vacuum also released their own trailers.

Chen Feng also watched the trailers of these two films online, but after watching them, he became more confident in Crazy Stone.

Judging from the trailer of The Longest Night, although it is an urban comedy, it seems that the theme of the film is a bit heavy. It uses a black humor to interpret the helpless life of many people... although the language and lines are very funny ,

But there is a deeper sense of fate hidden behind it. This kind of film with a comedy surface and a tragedy at the core is not expected to have a wide audience during the Lunar New Year movie.

However, director Ma Ying still has something good. There are frequent lines and sentences in the trailer, and the language scenes are also very expressive. It is indeed the work of a well-known director.

It's a pity that this type of movie is different from purely commercial movies after all. The director's personal style is more important, and comedy is just a cover on the surface. In fact, the content of the movie is still more of the director's. Personal expression...well, it may be a good movie, but it may not be successful at the box office...

This is Chen Feng's prediction of The Longest Night.

An Ruohua didn't quite agree with this.

I think this film directed by Ma Ying is very good. If you look at the trailer, the texture of the movie shots is really great. I like this style very much, and... what is a purely commercial film? ?The Stone and The Longest Night are both comedies in the final analysis, so there's no difference, right?

Chen Feng shook his head.

It's not the same. The core selling point of Crazy Stone is the story, the narrative technique, it's good-looking, enjoyable, and interesting... You can find a lot of things in this film that can stimulate the audience's interest, but you can't find anything in it. Find out the director’s position... Even if you can find it, the director’s position must be consistent with universal values. Good deeds are rewarded with good deeds, and evil deeds are rewarded with evil deeds. This simple orthodox concept is not exclusive to directors.”

The Longest Night is different, but from this trailer, we can see that the director wants to express a lot of things, and even every shot is from the director's personal perspective. Although the story is The form is comedy, and the lines are quite funny, but they are all serving the director’s ideas...

This is the difference between a purely commercial film and a director's personal style work.

An Ruohua's eyes widened after hearing what Chen Feng said.

Hey, are you studying film, or am I studying film? Why do I think you know better than me?

Chen Feng chuckled: I can't help it, I'm a genius, can't I?

No! An Ruohua puffed up her mouth angrily, then stretched out her hand to pinch Chen Feng's arm: I don't care. After the movies are released, you have to accompany me to watch The Longest Time directed by Ma Ying first. One night!

Okay, okay... Chen Feng shrugged and agreed easily.

In fact, he also understands An Ruohua. After all, she graduated from the film school. Although she usually makes some commercial films, she still yearns for purer movies in her heart.

After all, people have different pursuits. Tolerating each other is the best way to get along.

…

Compared with The Longest Night, the trailer of Lin Yueliang's Vacuum is more exciting. In just two minutes, there are gun battles, racing, hand-to-hand combat, explosions, jumping off buildings...all kinds of exciting elements. This is A police and gangster movie that contains action, martial arts, suspense, love, revenge and other elements, the trailer can give people the greatest sensory stimulation.

However, both Chen Feng and An Ruohua found the trailer boring after watching it.

This time, the two of them have completely unanimous opinions. Although Vacuum is very lively on the surface, it cannot hide the old problems of traditional police and gangster films that are cliche and uninnovative. No matter how exciting the film is, there is basically nothing left. Something new.

This is the shackles and limitations of the subject matter itself. A director or a few actors alone cannot reverse this general trend in any case.

Why do they have to stick to this old theme even though they have sufficient funds and excellent actors? It's really not interesting at all... An Ruohua sighed.

Chen Feng smiled: Just to be on the safe side... They are already accustomed to the production process of the southern entertainment industry. Making such a film is the fastest, safest, most secure, and most worry-free. Of course they don’t want to bother exploring new themes anymore, what if they fail?”

An Ruohua nodded, but then smiled and said: Then... who can guarantee that movies with old themes will not be popular? Hehe!

Chen Feng was convinced and agreed.
