Chapter 1141 The Undertaker Whom Others Can't Play
After more than two hours, this small gathering ended quietly. Except for Chen Hao, everyone's face was a little abnormal. They had just watched "Departures". As the first four people in the world who saw the whole film besides the crew, all four of them felt that they needed to appease the dark side of their hearts.
The two professional reviewers were not just sitting in the office drinking tea and reading newspapers as rumored outside. They had been working on the front line since they were very young. They definitely had the ability to appreciate movies. Only with such ability could they know what was touching the rules. Sometimes the hard indicators were there and they had no way. Sometimes they had to add some changed plots or subtitles abruptly, which was really helpless. The rules and regulations were there, and no one could cross that line. The final result was that everyone was cursed by the audience together.
"Departures" really cannot be released in the mainland. This style is too cold and cruel, which will bring bad negative psychological effects to the audience. In the current era, the negative psychological effects that this film may cause are definitely greater than those of pure blood and pure color films.
"It's right not to release it."
They shook hands and said goodbye. If the film was to be changed to the standard that could be released in the mainland, it would be like a big fight, and the film would not be the current one. Neither of them mentioned it. They knew very well that Chen Hao would never agree to cut his film.
Both sides received satisfactory answers. After replying to their superiors, Chen Hao's series of actions showed that his image was a plus. He cut the Gordian knot and directly put the answer out. While the popularity of "Forrest Gump" had not passed, the audience had a buffer time, so that there would not be any bad news because "Departures" was not released in the mainland.
The only person who might feel that this afternoon was very enjoyable was Jing Tianlin, but he would not show it. If he could feel excited after watching this film, he would definitely be classified as a "BT". What kind of mentality would be so twisted that he thought that the film was very enjoyable after watching it?
Is it wrong?
No one is qualified to judge the true feelings of others. This film does not really want to be a standard for distinguishing good from evil. You will get different answers from different perspectives. If you put yourself in the perspective of the male and female protagonists, you will find that everything is actually correct. If you were in the same situation, you would also want to do so. The difference is whether you have the courage to do it and the strategy to settle everything.
"Haozi, if your film is not released in mainland China, you will be scolded less."
If it is not released in mainland China, when you go to the cinema to watch it and feel stimulated, you want to blame Chen Hao as a point of venting. You will think of when he announced this matter and took out the trailer, it seems to tell you that you need to be mentally prepared in advance to endure some scenes that ordinary films do not have when you go to the cinema to watch this film.
In fact, such films have long been common on the world stage. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is purely bloody, and the atmosphere it creates is to scare you. The Joker in The Dark Knight will make you question a superhero movie. It turns out that villains can be so popular. The scenes of the Joker will make you feel uncomfortable after watching the movie. American dramas such as The Walking Dead challenge the splashing feeling of the picture, which makes you feel uncomfortable but you can't help but want to watch it.
That night, the main creative team gathered at the airport. In the first-class waiting room of the airport, some passengers couldn't help their curiosity. They came to take photos. Everyone wanted to ask why "Departures" was not released.
"Haven't you guessed it?" Xu Jinglei's wise answer earned everyone's understanding laughter. For the promotion in Hong Kong and Singapore, several older actors will go along, and the remaining stops will rely on young actors. Everyone knows that this is not just a physical reason. If one or two people go abroad, Chen Hao can lead them with his fame. If there are too many people, the audience won't know you, and it will be awkward to do promotional activities.
Xu Jinglei is the most suitable person to be recommended with the main force of the promotion. She is the heroine, she has enough scenes, and her acting skills are enough. Women of this age are more likely to be recognized internationally and can get some opportunities for important supporting roles first, provided that this film really makes her popular.
Will it? It seems that no one will question the quality of this film. The only thing that everyone is worried about is that this film does not clearly reflect a social issue. For example, the Hollywood movie "Dallas Buyers Club" created the most crazy male protagonist and male supporting actor, and the whole movie was very cruel, but everyone understood the helplessness derived from the social problems, and they also understood what they did in the end. The spin-off "Dying to Survive" is also very popular in China. They are all stories about whether drugs save lives or not to cross the line. In comparison, the former is more crazy and some shots in it are more daring, which will cause certain psychological discomfort, especially the second male role played by Jared Leto. He will make you feel uncomfortable from the moment he appears, and in the end you will find that he is the one you sympathize with the most.
In the plot of the story, the male protagonist Chen Bin, played by Chen Hao, has a strong and ferocious face under his seemingly peaceful and cowardly appearance. Simply compared with the heroine Liu Miao, played by Xu Jinglei, it is obvious that the former is a devil and the latter is worthy. A person who makes everyone sympathize. Without comparison, Chen Hao's character still deserves pity and sympathy. With comparison, his character becomes an outright villain, which is played by him. With his strong personal influence and Appealing power to get the audience’s preconceived recognition.
The character of the Joker definitely had more scenes in "The Dark Knight" than Batman. The setting of this character can be said to be a century-old classic of movies. It could be a movie on its own, but it had to be included in a superhero movie. In the series of movies, the brand power of superheroes is used to suppress the supporting role of villains. Otherwise, the audience will be accustomed to the model of justice defeating evil, and there will be psychological hints before watching the movie. Some people like Jing Tianlin will be hooked. , more people will not be able to accept such a plot arrangement. They clearly know that the clown has an unparalleled role, but are not willing to accept him. Even if they clearly like the clown, they will deliberately lie to keep themselves in the public group, and everyone will praise him. It’s easy to make a movie, and it’s also easy to deny a movie all at once. Everyone says the movie is not good, but you dare to say it’s good after watching it? Then you don’t just have an aesthetic problem, you also have a problem in your heart in everyone’s eyes.
Everyone agrees that this thing, Shuojin, is so powerful, it is a total killer.
When "The Embalmer" was being filmed, members of the crew told Chen Hao that there were no actors in the country who dared to make this film, and there were only a few people in the world who could.
The heated discussion on the Internet reached a peak after the crew and creators arrived in Xiangjiang. Fans of Haomen in Xiangjiang formed a huge greeting team to welcome the idol at the airport. As the former bridgehead of Huaxia Entertainment, it is said to be the birthplace of the city. It is not an exaggeration. In the 1980s and 1990s, there was already a complete star-chasing system here. In recent years, it can only be said that artists in Xiangjiang have either entered the mainland to develop, or have been idle. It is true that there are no good artists in the younger generation.
The platform has also changed. In the past, everyone focused on celebrities from Hong Kong and Taiwan. A few of them would get the attention of hundreds of millions of people. Now a young person comes out. Whether you are a singer, a TVB star or a newcomer acting in movies, there is no difference. When you reach a high enough level, the only people who can pay attention to you are this city and one place.
It is rare to recreate the madness of the 1990s. Chen Hao received the highest treatment from fans here. Fans accompanied him all the way. Many roads in the dense Xiangjiang neighborhood were jammed due to his arrival. After several discussions at the event, all the way Bigger, a movie promotion event. In order to satisfy the demands of Xiangjiang fans and to allow more people to see their idols, the final venue of the event was decided to be the Hung Hom Stadium, which can be regarded as creating a small platform for movie promotion. A small record, just like that, the area around the scene was already overcrowded at noon that day. The movie promotion event, which was originally scheduled to start at 2 p.m., had to be delayed for half an hour to maintain order at the scene. The organizer here also hopes that Chen Hao can at least be more With just a few performances, too many fans are eager to watch him for a while longer.
The security and order maintenance of such events in Hong Kong have always been the strengths of familiarity. In the past, there were more concerts by the kings and queens, and preparation plans for all aspects were sufficient. That is, in Hong Kong, in another place, the enthusiasm of the fans is all the same. The organizer was unable to cope with it. This promotional event also reminded the organizers of the next stop in Singapore, telling them that they must double their preparations on the basis of the original preparations to satisfy the fans generated by Chen Hao's arrival. Enthusiasm for activities.
When filming with Chen Hao, everyone is used to this kind of thing. When we were in the Lost City, when we occasionally came out from side streets and funeral parlors to shoot, the fans' enthusiasm was like a tsunami, which still makes everyone feel incredible to this day.
None of them could have imagined that such a crazy scene would happen after the most glorious period of the 1990s.
In fact, there are almost no characters in this movie who are really familiar with Chen Hao before. This time they went to Xiangjiang and saw Chen Hao's popularity. When the movie "One Thought of Ignorance" was filmed, Chen Hao also became a promoter of China Film and Television When the founder of the association arrived, a group of old friends had already come to the backstage to see him before the promotional activities had even started.
