Dad's Entertainment Life

Chapter 727
After seeing off the guests, Lin Qirong was surrounded by media reporters, many of whom had belittled the movie before.

This animated film subverted many people's imaginations and slapped many people in the face, once again proving the power of Lin Qirong.

Against the background of the decline of Hollywood movies, the rise of Chinese movies seems to be a clear trend. Lin Qirong is the vanguard, because everyone can see many familiar things in him.

So they have a lot of questions they want to ask Lin Qirong.

Lin Qirong did not refuse their interview because of the previous ridicule. Instead, he happily talked with them about the production of the film, future development plans, etc., and the atmosphere seemed happy.

"This animated movie will also be a series of movies, just like "Kung Fu Panda". The difference is that although Kung Fu Panda combines the two Chinese elements of kung fu and panda, the plot is completely original, and there are some differences in script creation. It’s very difficult. The third part is expected to be released next year.

This "Nezha" series is different. This character is a mythical figure as well-known as Sun Wukong in China. It has a rich story line, such as making troubles in the sea and slaying dragons, beating the dragon king in stealth in Tiangong, sending his father to cut his flesh to save his mother due to cramps, There are a series of well-known stories in Cuiping, where the common people worship, resist patriarchy and obey the destiny, protect Zhou and destroy merchants, fight and kill enemies, and fulfill missions and become holy in the flesh.

He also has a lot of intersection with Sun Wukong, both enemies and friends. In the history of Chinese mythology, the two characters are like two bright stars, always shining with dazzling light.

We will produce a series of animated films based on his story and present his stories to everyone one by one. We will also consider allowing him to have more intersections with Sun Wukong. The collision of the two superheroes may bring more excitement. "

"Lin, do you mean that you also want to build your own animation world?"

Lin Qirong shook his head, "It's not accurate to say construction, because superheroes like Nezha and Sun Wukong exist in mythical stories. We just clarify their story lines, and then connect the characters together to form The animation world that belongs to us is called Tonghua Universe.

Yes, just like Manfei Universe and DC Universe, we also want to create our Chinese Tonghua Universe.

This is what we have learned from Hollywood's successful model. Although it is certainly not as exciting as Manfei Universe, but backed by our extensive and profound Chinese culture, we should of course make a difference.

Of course, we are just at the beginning, and there are still many things to learn, but our goal is to create more and better movies, so that more audiences can understand our culture and feel the excitement brought by different cultures.

I sincerely hope that everyone will like this movie and what we convey in the movie. "

Many reporters couldn't help but smile bitterly. Lin Qirong mixed a lot of personal information into his answer, but it was something that everyone liked and could lead to many topics.

"This Lin Xue is broken, no, it should be said that it has always been so bad, but now it is more tactful and better at using the media."

But they are not disgusted. What the public likes is what they pursue. Now that the public likes this movie and Lin Qirong, they have to dig out the content of this aspect.

Lin Qirong grasped it very well, everyone just took what they needed.

After the release of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" that night, the one-sided public opinion quickly reversed, and the law of true fragrance once again became powerful. Whether in China, the United States, or Europe, countless people felt the sound of slaps on their faces .

"That ugly Nezha not only broke the prejudice of the villagers, but also broke my prejudice."

"Originally, I thought it was a bad movie, and I just went for Lin Qirong. After watching it, I only had one feeling: it smells great.

Lin Qirong did not let us down, Tonghua animation is still the same Tonghua animation, this "Nezha" really made me cry. "

"Lin Qirong made a bold adaptation of the well-known Nezha story, which not only retains the essence of traditional Chinese culture, but also adds popular elements to make the culture to be displayed more acceptable to the audience.

It breaks stereotypes, emphasizes self-independence, and takes into account metaphorical reality.There are many ugly aspects of the secular world in the film. Compared with the truth, many people are more willing to believe hearsay and see people through colored glasses.

Rebellious superheroes, although they seem to rebel against the tradition, still retain the most honest blood and touch, and still have the value orientation of dedication and responsibility to Chinese culture.

This is the correct direction that Chinese culture should take. Only by introducing the old and bringing forth the new, making appropriate adaptations, and making the plot and content more in line with modern people's thinking, can it be truly successful. "

"The film's counterattack is not to beat chicken blood or cook chicken soup. The film has a very delicate and convincing portrayal of Nezha's mental journey.

Moreover, the screenwriter cleverly used Ao Bing as a contrast to Nezha, highlighting the theme that whether humans or demons are independent choices, rather than destiny. "

All-round counterattack, this animated film that was once underestimated has embarked on a crazy counterattack and face-slapping road since its release. The bear boy Nezha with dark circles, small nose, and smoky makeup quickly conquered the world Audience, become everyone's favorite character.

The idea contained in this movie that my destiny is determined by my will and that parents are the guides of their children's lives has resonated with audiences around the world, and it has also made everyone feel the charm of Chinese culture.

One hundred million, two hundred million, one billion...

Huaxia's box office finally broke through 60 billion, ranking second in the history of the box office.

In the United States, Europe, Neon and other places, this movie has also achieved good results.

Tonghua Animation once again made a lot of money and once again conquered the world. Tonghua Animation finally became a presence alongside animation giants such as Disney and Manfei.

Lin Qirong discussed this issue seriously with O'Meara on O'Meara's talk show.

O'Meara brought up a very sensitive topic as always, "Now everyone thinks that Hollywood movies have lost their competitiveness and can only survive by relying on commercial blockbusters adapted from animation works that they have accumulated over a long period of time. However, your Chinese film shows It has strong vitality, and this "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" is the best proof.

What do you think of it? "

Lin Qirong smiled bitterly, "O'Meara, you are setting me on fire."

O'Meara laughed and said, "Who told you to achieve such outstanding results? There are not many movies released in North America in the past few years that can reach the box office and success of your movies. It is inevitable that everyone will have such Isn’t that an idea?”

Lin Qirong shook his head, "I think this is a false proposition."

"Why? This situation is obvious, isn't it? We have indeed felt the decline of Hollywood movies, and we have also seen the rise of Chinese movies."

"It makes sense for me to say this is a false proposition."

Lin Qirong chuckled and said, "First of all, everyone's starting point is different or the evaluation criteria are different, so everyone's feelings are also different.

The starting point of Huaxia film is low, and it has always been considered as a backward area of ​​the film industry. It is only because the market is large enough that it will cause false prosperity.

Under such circumstances, the appearance of one or two excellent films and outstanding box office results will give everyone the illusion that the Chinese film industry has ushered in a spring.

In fact, this is just an example, just a small number of films. To develop the entire Chinese film industry, people in the entire film industry need to be mobilized, and more and better films are needed. Only then can Chinese films be said to be on the rise.

As for Hollywood movies, they have always brought you too many excellent movies, and everyone has a very high evaluation standard for them. In other words, everyone’s appetite is spoiled by those good movies, and they feel uncomfortable if they are slightly unsatisfactory. .

In fact, the overall level of Hollywood movies is still very high, but there are no outstanding works that give everyone this illusion.

Chinese movies and Hollywood movies are like the difference between poor students and top students in the eyes of teachers. The poor student has indeed improved, but he has improved from [-] points to [-] points, barely passing.

The results of the top students are indeed not that outstanding, and there are fewer students with perfect scores, but the overall level still remains at [-] or [-], and everyone is still incomparable.

That's why I say this is a false proposition. If Huaxia movies want to catch up with Hollywood movies, there is still a long way to go.

Of course, we have found the right direction. Hollywood movies are our best teachers. We will continue to work hard and move forward. The goal is to dedicate our Chinese film culture to audiences all over the world.

I also sincerely hope that Hollywood movies can build on a strong foundation to achieve another success, after all, I also like watching Hollywood movies. "

O'Meara looked at Lin Qirong in surprise, "I didn't expect you to analyze it so calmly and thoroughly. It feels like a professional film critic."

Lin Qirong shrugged, "I also hope to be able to boast, so that my reputation will be greater, and my works will be seen by more people in the future, and the box office will be higher, but we have to face the truth, don't we?
Whether in the economic field or in the cultural field, we still have a big distance from the United States. We are students and chasers. "

"With a chaser like you, I think the bosses of those film companies will be afraid." O'Meara said with a smile, "This topic is very complicated, and it's impossible for us to fully understand it. Let's go here first, what did you do?" very nice."

"Thank you." Lin Qirong wiped off his sweat, "O'Meara, you are really a person who makes people love and fear."

"Thank you for the compliment. This is also the direction of my efforts."

O'Meara shrugged, "The last question, you are an excellent screenwriter, an excellent director, and an excellent singer at the same time. This seems incredible to us. How did you do it?"

Lin Qirong was silent for a while, and then slowly replied, "Because I like it, or because of my dream, I have been working hard, and I have always been on the road of chasing my dream."
