Chapter 969 Facing the Whole World

He Yingyu froze for a moment before realizing that she was talking about the trailer of "The Matrix".

However, it was the first time He Yingyu heard of the word "interesting" to describe this movie.

The word itself is very "interesting".

But she still smiled and said, "Thank you! Our grandpa Qian dares to play with anything! Which one are you looking at?"

Ming Xiaojing smiled, ignoring the phrase "Our family is humble", but calmly said: "I have read it all, there are only three versions in total? One minute, half a minute and fifteen seconds, three kinds .”

He Yingyu nodded, "Yes! That's right! You said it's interesting, are you talking about the 'bullet time'?"

Ming Xiaojing looked at her in surprise, "Does Qian'er call that shot 'bullet time'?"

He Yingyu nodded, and said enthusiastically: "It is said that there is an allusion. We don't understand why it is called such a name, but he said it is called 'Bullet Time', then 'Bullet Time'!"

Ming Xiaojing laughed when he heard the words, "He always has some inexplicable ideas! However, that shot is really unique, and it feels cool! When you kick it out, it feels like you have practiced it!"

Mentioning this, He Yingyu was extremely proud, "Of course! I have been practicing for a long time! During that time, our coach pushed me down abruptly, and I could even hear the click when my legs split apart. The sound is so painful, I cried many times! But the coach said, that’s what the boss asked! There’s no way, I can only practice according to his request! But it’s okay, he is very satisfied with the result!”

Ming Xiaojing smiled, holding a coffee cup, and listening to what she said, she could feel the full sense of trust in Li Qian in her words, eyebrows, and expressions.

Yes, it is a sense of trust.

It may be wronged, it may be painful, but as long as Li Qian thinks it is necessary, no matter how hard or tired he is, he still feels the need to suffer. And as long as the result satisfies Li Qian, she will be very happy and feel that she has not practiced in vain!

Perhaps it was this sense of trust that made her the person Li Qian was most willing to praise?

But there was a pause, and when she finished speaking, Ming Xiaojing still smiled and said: "It seems that I have really suffered a lot, no wonder that kick looks so sharp! I said at the time, it must be more than just that scene You must have practiced your shooting skills!"

He Yingyu laughed.

But Ming Xiaojing said again: "It seems that Qian'er has really developed his skills to the fullest, otherwise he wouldn't have abused you so much! I hope this movie will be a big hit! It can be regarded as justifying the name of our Chinese movies!"

After a pause, she said in a low voice, as if speaking her own words: "You know, everyone says that Chinese people don't have sci-fi thinking, and Chinese people don't know how to make sci-fi movies at all."

She was just casually expressing emotion, but He Yingyu raised her brows slightly when she heard the words, and said with a smile: "But Master Qian is not an ordinary person! Others can't take pictures well, so he is fine!"

Ming Xiaojing also moved his brows and eyes slightly, and smiled slowly.

But at this time, He Yingyu suddenly leaned forward, and asked suddenly: "Sister Ming, I hear what you mean, it seems that you don't like this movie very much?"

"Ah? No!"

When Ming Xiaojing heard the words, he was subconsciously panicked.

It seemed that someone had suddenly punctured his mind, and he was a little panicked.

When she came back to her senses, seeing He Yingyu looking at her with such a smile, she couldn't help shrugging her shoulders, and she was tangled up in her heart, before she said, "It's not that I don't like it!"

"I don't know what to say, but in short, I feel that Qianer's move is quite dangerous!"

"Xiaoyu, have you never been to the West? I have participated in many European film festivals, so I am more or less familiar with the film circles in Europe. If you really get in touch with those Western filmmakers, you will soon It will be very clear that they actually look down on Chinese films and Chinese filmmakers in their bones. They even look down on Chinese people!"

"So, the same quality, simply speaking of movies, is comparable. Even Iranian movies, Brazilian movies, Mexican movies, or Indian movies are more likely to win awards than Chinese movies. If Chinese movies want to win awards in Europe , it must be significantly higher than other films!"

He Yingyu nodded slowly: Although she is not familiar with Europe and the United States, she knows that this is the actual situation!

At this time, Ming Xiaojing continued: "So, in fact, everyone who makes films in our country knows that the European market is not easy to enter! But after all, the European market still has a door open for us Chinese films. Yes, with a little effort, it is still possible to squeeze in. And Europeans have one thing, they still recognize the really good things. For example, Qin Dao's "Red Light District" back then, such as Qianer's "Red Sorghum" , Really good stuff, even if it is a Chinese work, they will be after it."

"But that's an art film! That's Europe!"

"When I chatted with Master Qin and the others, I talked about this issue many times. The North American market is actually far more xenophobic than the European market! Moreover, the North American market only recognizes white people, let alone us Orientals, even black people, It’s hard to be popular! Even for Orientals, they have face blindness! They can’t tell the difference between Japanese, Koreans and Chinese, and they can’t tell how old this Oriental looks like that Oriental different!"

"What's more, "The Matrix" is a science fiction film!"

"Maybe for some of our Chinese movies, some of our ancient history, some of our concern for human beings, some of the things that describe a certain era or a certain level of society, and are willing to dig deeper, they will also have some People are interested, because at that level, all human minds are interlinked. But to put it bluntly, for North American and European audiences, it can be classified as a novelty-hunting psychology! In short, literary films When it's done, audiences in Europe will love it, and some people in North America will love it."

"But sci-fi movies, it's hard!"

"I talked about this topic with many friends a while ago. Everyone said that even Europeans can't make sci-fi movies well! Even if they are made by Europeans, the North American market will scoff at them, let alone Chinese ones?"

"To put it bluntly, Hollywood blockbusters sweep the world, not relying on literary films that describe the soul! In this regard, European filmmakers are the most powerful. This kind of thing can only be piled up with rich cultural accumulation. Hollywood blockbusters sweep the world by virtue of it." Yes, it is their sci-fi blockbuster! Filmmakers from all over the world and from all countries can’t make it, and they can’t do it well! But Americans can do it very well!”

"This must be related to the level of scientific and technological development in the United States, and it has to do with Hollywood's developed film industry, but I have to say that Americans are indeed more out-of-the-box when it comes to science fiction! They can always come up with very unique science fiction Stories and ideas, but people from other parts of the world, including us Chinese, including Europeans, etc., can’t do it. The cultural accumulation is too thick, so they rarely think wildly and whimsically.”

"I still remember that it was several years ago, when we talked about this topic while drinking, Qian'er said that Americans are better at digging brains! Yes, that's the word, he said that Americans have big brains!"

Speaking of this, He Yingyu couldn't help laughing.

She also heard Li Qian say the word "brain hole", and it seemed that he was the only one who said this word.

Ming Xiaojing seemed to be recalling Li Qian's appearance when he said this word, and he also laughed, saying: "Actually, if you think about it, this word is quite vivid. It's just a brain hole! There is a hole in the brain!"

Speaking of this, she sighed, "So, it's not that I don't like this movie, the main thing is, think about it, the hero and heroine are both Chinese, and such a movie went to North America and Europe. Even "The Gate of Life and Death" did not sell well in Europe and North America! What's more, movies are the science fiction subjects that Americans are best at? This is not the same as taking our weakest side to hit others' hardest and strongest A piece of it?"

Rubbing the coffee cup in her hand, she said: "Actually, let me tell you that "Gourd Baby" is so successful in North America, Qian'er should continue to follow this path. Make the second part of "Gourd Baby", Besides, isn’t Lord Zhan going to make the movie “Kung Fu Panda”? I think it’s not bad. Pandas are still very popular in the West, and they are a very representative animal in China. They are also related to Kung Fu. Combined, I think this idea is great! However, the foundation has not yet been firmly established, and suddenly such a sci-fi film comes out, if the box office is not ideal..."

It seems that the chatterbox has opened up all of a sudden, or maybe, if there is no quarrel with Li Qian, she will go to persuade Li Qian face to face when the filming of "The Matrix" has not started, but it is only now that she suddenly She couldn't help but say it out, anyway, when it came to the end, it almost became her rambling alone, but He Yingyu just listened with a smile on her face, and rarely interjected.

However, at this point, she herself seemed to have suddenly realized that she had said too much!

The one sitting opposite me is the heroine of "The Matrix"!

It's obviously not too friendly to badmouth this movie in front of others!

So, she came to her senses and hurried back to make amends, "I'm not talking about being discouraged, I hope from the bottom of my heart that this movie will be a hit in North America and Europe! As I said just now, I hope that you will You can give our domestic movies and our sci-fi movies a good reputation and justify our name!"

He Yingyu just smiled and said, "I understand!"

But after a pause, she smiled and said, "I also think what you said just now, Sister Ming, is quite reasonable! But you overlooked one point!"

Ming Xiaojing looked at her with a puzzled face.

She smiled and said, "That's Li Qian!"

Ming Xiaojing was stunned.

The confident smile on He Yingyu's face, the almost infinite confidence in Li Qian revealed in her words, that kind of absolute trust and absolute admiration made her lose her mind.

She couldn't help but suddenly thought of herself in these years.

Thinking of myself back then—the way I looked at Qin Wei and Master Qin back then, and when I talked about Master Qin in front of others, it was probably the same way, right?

Absolute confidence, absolute trust, absolute worship!

And he helped him win the Best Actress in Venice in one fell swoop! She has achieved her great reputation as the number one actress in China for many years!

Ten years passed by.

Now Li Qian picked up He Yingyu.

The same trust, the same worship.

For every generation of directors, there is a generation of actors.

It’s just that, science fiction movies, and they are Chinese leading actors and actresses, and they are shown to audiences in North America, Europe, and the whole world. It is much more difficult to make films for the tastes of those film festival judges.

Because what Li Qian was going to face was the whole world.

Can he succeed?

…………

Until He Yingyu had left for a long time, Ming Xiaojing sighed again, took a sip of the cold coffee, and turned on his laptop again.

She wanted to continue to work out the shooting plan, but after opening the document and reading a few lines, she felt a little upset, so she subconsciously closed the document, thought about it, opened the QQ client, and found Xunfei’s homepage from the client. icon, click on it.

Find the trailer for "The Matrix" and click on it.

Watch the three trailers one by one.

real world? Fake world?

The trailer didn't talk too much, it just lifted the black veil a little bit, and then covered it again. This seems to be an idea to reset the world order?

It wasn't explained in the trailer.

Looking at it again, I still think that so-called "bullet time" is really cool.

It is estimated that Americans will also like it, right?

In Li Qian's own words, he is actually quite a "brain hole".

At least this unique shooting method of bullet time is something I have never seen or heard of before, and now that there is a gap between everyone, it is not easy to ask him how it was realized.

In short, as far as I know, Minghu Culture's investment in film technology over the years has not been low. Maybe they have developed some new technology?

But that's all, judging from these three trailers, it seems that this so-called sci-fi movie sells more because of the fighting and action scenes?

And it's an action scene of two Chinese sweeping a bunch of white Westerners!

The industry has already commented on this: "Once Upon a Time" portrayed Huang Feihong, a national hero that Chinese people especially like, but in the Western world, because a group of white people were the targets of beating, and they were portrayed as The rude aggressors were killed, so the box office of this movie in Europe and America was not satisfactory.

Now, he actually copied another one!

Or the Chinese beat foreigners!

well!

For such a film, He Yingyu still has full confidence in him!

At this time, she suddenly had an idea: Should I delay it? Wait until the box office of "The Matrix" comes out before going to Minghu Culture to talk about He Yingyu's film appointment?

Maybe by that time, her film contract should be cheaper?
