Chapter 1654 Blessing the Great God

"What do you think of Jin Gaoyinxi's works directed by Bong Joon-ho?"

What is being played on the big screen is Bong Joon-ho's first feature film "Kidnapping the Door Dog". This film was released in 2000, and the market response was mediocre at that time, which may have something to do with him being a newcomer. The reputation is not enough, and the work itself is not so good.

Especially compared to his later works, the plot of this feature film is not ups and downs enough, the characters are a little thinner, and the characters lack tension, but looking back, it is his work closest to the realistic style, no matter In terms of scene design, storyline and character image, they are not as dramatic as his later works.

Jin Gaoyin hooked the hair on the sideburns awkwardly. Yang Cheng stretched one hand on the back of the sofa and the other on the armrest, with her body sideways to Jin Gaoyin. If you look at it from another angle, it looks like she is now pregnant with Yang Cheng. The posture is very intimate and ambiguous, and she can feel Yang Cheng's exhaled heat.

Hearing Yang Cheng's question, she hesitated for a moment and then replied, "I think director Bong Joon-ho's works are very interesting. He can always reveal a trace of serious and even tragic human nature and social issues in a relaxed atmosphere. , at the end of the film, human nature is stimulated and released in certain social contradictions, how should I put it, it’s like pushing a person to a desperate situation in order to truly understand a person’s character.”

Yang Cheng looked at Jin Gaoyin unexpectedly. Compared with other female stars who had a face and a figure but no brains, Jin Gaoyin's answer proved that she was a thoughtful woman.

This is indeed the case, as Jin Gaoyin said, in Bong Joon-ho’s movies, the protagonists always fall into one thing, fall into a special situation, and then conflicts with the society will occur in them, gradually making the protagonist’s image , together with the surrounding social forms become full, and the audience can find Bong Joon-ho's interpretation from it.

For example, in the movie "Kidnapping the Dog at the Door", in an ordinary apartment, the sound of dogs barking made the hero who was not selected for the title of professor even more restless, while the boring community female worker was obsessed with finding the missing dog in order to be on TV. In addition to the main characters, there are also single security guards, old women living alone, mentally abnormal homeless and others in the apartment.

The stories that happened to them are very common, and they are all things that ordinary people may encounter: the shady scenes of university teachers' promotion, quarrels between husband and wife, the boredom of community female workers and the mentality of ordinary people, security guards and community managers eating dog meat, Telling ghost stories, the old lady drying dried radishes, etc., are all trivial chores that can no longer be trivial, and they are expressed by the actors in an extremely life-like tone.

To the audience, it seems that this is not like a movie, but more like a TV series expressing the short stories of parents, but it has been sped up and turned into a movie.

It may be precisely because of this kind of life-like expression that it did not bring strong sensory stimulation to the audience, which led to unoptimistic box office results and poor word-of-mouth feedback.

It’s just that people are used to exalting the highs and stepping down the lows. After Bong Joon-ho becomes a god, he will go back and appreciate his works.

Yang Cheng watched quietly for a few minutes, and suddenly saw a few people standing up in the front row of the sofa area. One of them had a slightly fat back, and his curly hair with a big back gave off a sloppy look.

Following this person's standing up, a group of people in the front row stood up one after another, and they didn't know what they were talking about, but judging from their posture, they were nothing more than flattering words.

Liu Jianjun also stood up, and said to Yang Cheng, "Boss, shall we go and talk to director Feng Junhao? I mentioned you to him just now, and he is also very interested in meeting you."

"Let's go, shall Jin Gaoyin Xi come along?"

Because of her views on movies, Yang Cheng admired her, so naturally she didn't mind giving her a favor.

Jin Gaoyin thought that she would meet Feng Junhao just now to say hello, even if it was not in vain today, she did not expect that there would be a surprise. Faced with such an invitation, she had no reason to refuse.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang~"

. . .

"Mr. Yang, your company is a newly emerging entertainment giant in South Korea, please take care of me in the future~"

Contrary to Yang Cheng's expectation, Bong Joon-ho does not have the nobleness of an artist, let alone the profound concept of opening his mouth and shutting his mouth. Instead, he is very familiar with Yang Cheng.

"Director Bong Joon-ho is also one of my favorite film directors. It would be great if there is an opportunity to cooperate in the future."

After blowing a few words to each other, they changed to a quiet place and sat down. Yang Cheng drank his red wine and asked concerned, "I heard that director Bong Joon-ho is going to return to Korea to shoot?"

Bong Joon-ho smiled, "In fact, it's already in the final stage, and the project is called "Okja"."

Okja? The name Yang Cheng was very strange, he had never heard of it in his previous life, so his reputation should not be that great.

Since you don’t understand it, it’s best not to say too much, because the more you say, the more mistakes you make.

"Like so many of your fans, I am looking forward to it very much. By the way, has the publisher of "Yuzi" been confirmed?"

""Okja" is invested and produced by Netflix, and we plan to release it online this time, not in theaters~"

Yang Cheng frowned slightly, "Not going to theaters? Can the cost be recovered?"

Bong Joon-ho smiled wryly, "I dare not say 100%, but as an investor, Netflix supports this online distribution model, and I only support it, and this may not be a new attempt."

"Streaming movies is the mainstream trend now, but a movie that has never been shown in theaters is directly online, can it really succeed?"

"Before new things are popularized, most people are resistant and even instinctively think that they will fail, but past experience tells me that new things are not necessarily risks.

I grew up in the 1970s and 1980s. At that time, DVDs had not yet been invented, and home video tapes had not yet been popularized. Therefore, it was very hard to be a movie fan. I could not find the movies I wanted to watch on the Internet anytime, anywhere, or even directly. You can watch whatever clips you want.

And at that time, going to the cinema was limited by money and time, so most of the time, I watched old movies that had been on TV for several months or even this year. In order to see the movies I wanted to watch, I would check TV schedule, see what movies are on every week, now that I think about it, I was very happy at that time, I could probably watch ten movies a week, but I didn’t think it was a waste of time, since then, I knew my The industry you want to work in in the future.

It's the same now, when people are used to watching movies in the cinema, and suddenly they are pulled from the cinema back home, there will definitely be discomfort, but we have to take this step, just like dragging people from home to the cinema . "

Yang Cheng admired the other party's dedication and innovative spirit, but he was noncommittal about the matter itself.

He can only say that Netflix is ​​really rich!
