Big director

3D movies, also known as stereoscopic movies.

As early as 1839, the British scientist Charles.Sir Whiston invented a kind of three-dimensional glasses according to the phenomenon of "the imaging of two human eyes is different", and this is also the principle of 3D glasses later.Then in 1922, the world's first 3D movie "The Power of Love" came out, and until the 50s, 3D movies entered the first golden period.

Many 3D movies have been produced just like that, but most of these so-called three-dimensional movies use "guns pointed at the audience, objects thrown at the audience, trains driving towards the audience" and so on as gimmicks. The directors never bothered to engage in such tricks, and the audience who were temporarily attracted by novelty things was obviously not so easy to pass. In addition, the 3D glasses at that time made people dizzy and had neuralgia after wearing them for a long time. The movie experience can be said to be terrible, so after this wave, 3D movies have completely declined, and only some low-level directors are still obsessed with using this gimmick to become famous.

However, it may have been silent for too long. Since the 80s, the so-called 3D movies have shown signs of recovery.But even so, few classic works have come out.

I saw this Chinese sci-fi movie that was done very well on the poster, and it turned out to be a 3D movie, Lamor.Dan really couldn't laugh or cry, and his expectations for the movie were automatically lowered by a few percentage points. If they hadn't all come over, he really wanted to turn around and leave immediately, so as not to waste time here.

However, the moment you put on your glasses, Larmor.Dan was so thankful that he wasn't blindfolded by prejudice and chose to come in and have a look.

What catches the eye is the endless sea water.

This sea water has a very real level of light and shadow and dynamics, rushing towards the face, it is almost like diving into the sea and looking out through a large transparent glass.

In a bird's-eye view, the mysterious underwater city on the poster lies quietly.

In contrast, there is a spaceship full of high-tech and cold beauty, only a small part of it is exposed, a door is slowly opened there, and a silver-white underwater exploration vehicle rattled out of it. car.

Then the angle of view changed, and the three people in the car were looking out with great interest—a young man who looked very lively shouted excitedly, and another man who was idling was rubbing his hands desperately, muttering 'we are here To send ah'!The short-haired beauty sitting in the back seat slightly rolled her eyes, fiddling with this round gadget in her hand, and was constantly looking at the city not far away.

This, this picture texture!Did the Chinese suddenly start hanging up? !

Actually, Larmor.Dan has seen several Chinese movies.

In his impression, the Chinese are best at filming themes of gangsters, cops, gangsters, gunfights, (ancient) kung fu, and themes of the people at the bottom of the special period, at least those he has seen are like this.Small cost, no pursuit of picture quality, full of a special sense of simplicity.Larmor.Dan has never been to China, but through the movies he has watched, as long as China is mentioned, the first few key words that come to mind are many people, good at fighting, long braids with a bald front, weird opera facial makeup, Bravery is not afraid of death, cheongsam, flower padded jacket...

Those were the images that left the deepest impression on him. They may have nothing to do with China in reality, but to be honest, the media in the western world almost never report news about that country. Occasionally, they are mostly negative, Lamor .Dan was just a movie critic, and he didn't really care much about anything other than movies.

But today, all inherent impressions have been subverted.

Larmor.Dan shivered violently.

It’s as if there is a poor neighbor in your family that you never get along with. He has positive impressions on you—such as hardworking, brave, kind and hardworking, but also negative impressions—such as being rude, poor, ignorant and backward, and then suddenly one day, you I found out that they didn’t know when they built a small villa, drove an expensive sports car, and held a beautiful woman in a gorgeous dress. They knocked on your door and invited you to attend their luxurious party...

right!It's such an indescribable sour feeling!

That even made Larmore.Dan was distracted and ignored a large part of the plot!

That's right, Chinese films have won some awards at the Cannes Film Festival-whether it's the Palme d'Or, or the best director, and those few films are Larmor.Of course, Dan will not miss it. It is indeed a good movie with a deep conception and endless aftertaste. It can be said that Lamor.Dan’s most inherent impressions of China come from this.They deserve that kind of honor. After all, good movies should be rewarded. This is the original intention that every film festival should always adhere to. If this fairness is destroyed, the cornerstone of the film festival’s continuation will be shaken. As a professional Critics, this is certainly not what he wants to see.

but……

Maybe his current thinking is too deviated from professionalism, too mixed with private goods...

But, but... Larmor.Dan shuddered dizzily—a winning movie was a winning movie, and a big movie was a big movie.

No matter how many awards there are, they can only attract temporary attention. As we all know, the films that are the easiest to hit awards and are most favored by the judges often fail to achieve any big success at the box office.And the influence that can really be implemented can only be realized when the audience enters the theater!The huge aura of the award, perhaps in the end, the grand publicity can only allow a very small number of people to watch a movie well, and most of the rest, at most, "have heard the name of the movie, and it is a bit familiar", those box office How many years does it take for a classic that has both good reputation and word of mouth to appear?

If you jump out of a certain level, you will find that those awards that all filmmakers are flocking to are actually cooked meat for animal taming?candy?High-quality grass?Say whatever you want, in short, the animal trainer is responsible for setting the tone for the performance, and then the beasts will perform according to the wishes of the animal trainer... Walking on the single-plank bridge, whoever finishes well will be rewarded, so don't worry about it It's Monkey Elephant Tiger Dolphin... Want a reward?You have to follow the rules. You said you are better at jumping through hoops?Counting with chips?Nose tip ball? , no one is willing to watch that, we only choose to walk well on the single-plank bridge, and the others are unnecessary, all eliminated!

Therefore, each film festival and each film award has its own unique preferences. In order to win these awards, major film companies will "tailor-made" several films every year, which are specially used to compete for awards.Is it hard to imagine?This is the norm!

If Larmor.If Dan is Chinese, he might have a more accurate analogy, that is—like our college entrance examination, the big figures in the Ministry of Education do not need to stipulate what students study at all, they only need to decide what to take the test, and then naturally , everyone will work hard in one direction, and those deviant guys will be eliminated except for a very few lucky ones.

And the movie he is watching now is a typical 'deviant'.

The impact may have been too violent for Larmore.A professional film critic like Dan began to think about things other than movies involuntarily.

Movies are not just movies, they are politics...

enough!stop!He is not one of those politicians who are chasing profit, the only thing he needs to care about is the quality of the movie, whether it is worthy of the extraordinary special effects!

Sort out the chaotic thoughts in your mind, Lamor.Dan put his heart and soul into the film.

……

two hours later.

In the sparsely populated venue, there was relatively warm applause.

Before the crew came to the stage, they bowed to everyone in unison. Zhu Zimo stood in front of the stage as usual, first said thank you in Chinese, and then repeated them in French and English respectively.The few young actors standing behind him looked less calm than him, their cheeks were flushed, and if you looked carefully, you could see some tears welling up in their eyes.This cannot be blamed on them, after all, it is the first time for them to see the finished film, and it was fun in front of the big screen. How could they not be excited, who were mostly unknown actors before? !This effect is ten thousand times better than they imagined!

At this moment, they all feel so fortunate in their hearts. Being able to participate in that child's play audition meeting is really the most correct decision they have ever made in their lives!

Larmor.Dan was sitting in a back seat at this time, looking at the front with a complicated face.

He heard two people talking quietly not far away.

One of them said: "Ah, look, the one who said thank you is the director! I saw it on the red carpet that day, and I still couldn't believe it. I didn't expect him to make such a good movie at such a young age!"

Another said: "...It's just a routine of a general commercial blockbuster, it's nothing at all."

The one who spoke first joked and laughed: "Evan, you are too duplicity. This movie is not a popcorn movie that is not nutritious. It has nothing but special effects. You just watched it very much, and you dropped two drops in the end. Tears! Don’t think I didn’t see it!”

The other's tone seemed awkward, and he raised his voice slightly: "Who said that! You must have read it wrong! I can't cry!"

"Okay, Evan, why don't you cry? You don't need to speak so loudly, it will affect others!"

"Huh! But I admit that this movie is very cool to watch, and it is more likable than the one I watched yesterday. I hate those slow-paced movies that make people fall asleep!"

"I feel the same way! But having said that, Evan, this director is too young. I bet he is not as old as us, but he can already direct such a grand work. Thinking about myself, I feel a little depressed ah!"

"I think we'd better change the subject, I don't want to blame myself... The most annoying thing about this movie is that it's in Chinese! It hurts my eyes to read the subtitles, and always pay attention to the subtitles, I probably missed a lot of plots! Damn it, can’t this director make it into an English version?”

"Well, actually, I also think this is inconvenient, but when I think of a group of Asians insisting on speaking English, I still find it a bit funny... Haha, what you gain has what you lose, so it's more authentic! Well, eh Wen, I have a suggestion."

"what?"

"Why don't we watch it again? Some details will definitely become clear after reading it again."

"...Well, since you insist."

"Evan... You are really... If you really don't want to, I can see it myself! Don't be so reluctant hahaha."

"...Laughing fart! The movie is over, are you still sitting here waiting for people to catch up? Let's go!"

Larmor.Dan accidentally played the wretched role of listening to the wall, and when the man and woman who didn't know if they were lovers left, he came back to his senses in embarrassment, tidied up the wrinkled corners of his clothes, and stood up. , also went out.

Is that Chinese boy who doesn't look like an underage really the director?

Was it the movie I just watched?

Could it be that this world has become illusory?

Larmor.Dan walked out with a dazed expression. He stood in front of the poster for a long time, and finally took out his Nikon camera from his bag, and took a picture of the poster.

In the small book used to record his movie-watching experience, under the title of Atlantis, there was still a blank space. As he walked outside, he bought a fragrant hot dog from a small shop on the side of the road to pad his stomach. Without much entanglement, he made a decision - just like those two people, he had to read it again.

Take it easy now, Larmer.Facing the scorching sun in May, Dan comfortably stretched his waist. His worrying about the country and the people just now was a joke. Enjoying every good work is the meaning of his life. National consciousness and racial consciousness are not advisable. He used to sneer at these things. Today, I really don't know what evil happened...

Now that the wolf is coming, the organizer should be the one who should be troubled, right?

Hehehe, I really want to take a good look at the next development!It must be very interesting...

The hall slowly became empty.

The cast members who were blindfolded by the huge surprise couldn't bear to scratch their hearts and livers, and finally waited until the audience was gone. At this time, there was no need to worry about the image problem. Everyone was young, and the oldest actor Wu Junqi Well, he has not yet reached the age of 35, and the outside world still has to call him the age of "Xiaosheng".At this time, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and then there was a burst of cheers at the same time!Then the two actresses took a step back in tacit understanding, and the remaining five actors surrounded Zhu Zimo in the middle, lifted him up in a hurry, and threw him into the air!

Zhu Zimo was caught off guard by the murderous hands, and his whole body suddenly lost his balance. He was so scared that he screamed loudly, for fear that these people would accidentally miss him and throw him to the ground... The scene was so beautiful that he didn't dare to look at it. !

The people whose brains were short-circuited by the huge happiness impact seemed to be crazy. The wolf howled and threw the poor director Zhu out of the level and tricks. Director Zhu screamed a few times in the beginning. Next, after he recovered, he began to use the director's authority to threaten everyone to let him go, but unfortunately it didn't work at all. His little vibrato with a crying voice not only had no deterrent effect, but it was especially easy to arouse the evil hidden in people's hearts. Interesting and sadistic, Director Zhu was tossed a dozen times desperately, before finally being dizzy and safely put back on the ground.

When he came back to his senses, he immediately beat up this group of rebellious and rebellious guys regardless of the director's image!

The fun and crazy time ended quickly, look at the time, it's time for lunch.

This morning, everyone didn't eat much, and they were nervous...

Caressing his constantly roaring belly, Director Zhu waved his hand generously: "Let's go! Let's go after eating well, I'll treat you!"

Taking two cars, they went to a small shop that looked very inconspicuous from the outside. Several actors shouted that Director Zhu was too stingy, and they drove for half an hour to find such a place. They finally came to France. Gotta have a nice French meal, huh?It's so embarrassing!

Director Zhu rolled his eyes and despised them: "Haven't you guys heard the saying that the great hermit lives in the city? The real masters are among the folks! Like those famous restaurants that are expensive and expensive, they sell that kind of atmosphere, which is most suitable for couples and prospective couples." Go romantic, but we are here today to celebrate, and secondly, to eat and drink well. Do you think it is easy to find a restaurant where you can talk and laugh loudly in this unfamiliar place? I am really not satisfied !"

What he said is indeed the truth. It is not easy to find this place. He still logs into his optical brain and searches for keywords in the same city. Only the locals or the best foodies know about this small shop. It's a good place, but most people really can't find it.

Before, he had already made an appointment by phone and fixed the location, otherwise he would rush over directly, and he might have to return home without a feather.

This is a Chongqing hot pot restaurant opened overseas...

After entering the door, bypassing a not-so-big screen, an extremely tempting spicy and delicious smell hits the face, and this group of guys who are far away from overseas, who are still clamoring for a French meal just now, drools in an instant up.

After two or three days of French food, they couldn't hold on anymore.

It's still such a familiar taste!

When celebrating, you should sit in a circle and eat hot pot!This is what is called atmosphere!

The owner of this store is a very thin old man. Seeing them coming in, he greeted them with a smile, and spoke out in authentic Sichuan and Shu dialect. The dragon mandarin duck pot was brought to the table, and the fire was quickly lit.Tai Chi Yin Yang fish-like pot, half of which is red hot and spicy soup base, and half of which is an improved seafood creamy soup base with strong overseas characteristics. Two completely different aromas rush to the face with the heating below, which is really amazing. People can't hold it anymore!

On the shelf next to it, there are beautifully cut beef and mutton, various vegetables, and of course the most eye-catching is a few plates of fresh and pure seafood, including fish, shrimp, crab, squid and sea urchin. How can you bear this situation?Quickly sorted out the seats and sat down. Zhu Zimo, the youngest, was aspiring to be the main seat. The boss's son brought over a large box of beer and popped several bottles. Everyone filled them up one by one excitedly. Drank heartily for a round!

"Congratulations on our movie hit! Do it!"

Zhu Zimo sat Wu Junqi on the left, Shen Pingzhang on the right, Qinglong on the left and Baihu on the right. This time he never used the excuse of 'not drinking age' to escape. When the glass was dry, his white jade-like face suddenly appeared. There was a thin layer of blush, just like the petals of a peach blossom, it was so beautiful!

Shen Pingzhang watched from the side, and his heart skipped a beat!He quickly lowered his eyes and drank a glass of wine vigorously. Because he drank too quickly, he choked and coughed for a while.

Everyone no longer had to laugh into a ball of scruples, watching the ingredients put in the pot open up, but at this moment they couldn't hold back their saliva anymore, and they all picked up their chopsticks, just to see who was faster and more ruthless!How can there be a beautiful image on the red carpet at the opening ceremony?
