Facing the bombardment from all the directors, Lan Tian did not hesitate, but continued to face the difficulties, so he accepted the interview of Guangzhou Daily directly!
Guangzhou Daily: What do you think of the phenomenon that many actors and writers cross-border as directors?

Lan Tian: For the entire industry, this is a good thing. Compared with Hollywood or Bollywood, our country has too few new directors instead of too many. Among them, there are very few famous young directors. few.But I think that if you want to cross-border as a director, you have to really love movies first, don't cross over to play, or just to make a lot of money.

Guangzhou Daily: However, cross-border directors often have not received professional training, and are often criticized as "not professional enough". Compared with traditional directors, what are the advantages and disadvantages of cross-border directors?
Lan Tian: Compared with the professional directors who came from majors, we are indeed inferior to others in terms of technology, but technical things are easy to overcome. You can learn and solve this problem by accumulating experience.But as a director, the most important thing is the concept. What do you want to shoot?What does the audience want to see?In fact, there have been many cross-border directors in recent years, and their works have been loved by the audience, which proves that they have indeed produced many things that traditional directors cannot.Their movies wouldn't be as popular if they were nothing.

Guangzhou Daily: Writer, director, businessman, with so many identities, which one do you most identify with?

Lan Tian: What I identify with the most is a writer. No matter whether I am a director or a writer, I am a creator, and what I like most is storytelling.If we talk about the two identities of a businessman and a creator, I still prefer to be a creator, after all, the sense of accomplishment he can bring to me is incomparable.Being a businessman is more of a sense of responsibility as an entrepreneur. I have to take care of the employees of the whole company, pay them salaries and so on.

Guangzhou Daily: The most controversial part of the "Big Times" series is its values. What do you think?
Lan Tian: In fact, there is no need to discuss values. I don’t think there is a problem with the values ​​of "The Great Times". To live a good life through your own efforts is not something outrageous.I have been educated since I was a child to work hard to make money to live a good life. I don’t believe that there will be parents who tell their children, don’t make money, money is evil.Parents must be saying, earn money well, live a good life in the future, buy a car and a house, and parents will rely on you in the future. This is the most simple wish of ordinary people.But everyone thinks that if you only pursue material things, it is wrong, so it will cause confrontation, but in general, it is a good thing to have arguments, at least everyone has expressed their own ideas.

Guangzhou Daily: Is your view of love the same as the characters in "Big Times"?

Lan Tian: I am not as dreamy as in the movie, I will be more simple, my view of love is not a simple obsession, money and appearance alone are not enough, we must understand each other and be tolerant.

Guangzhou Daily reported: "Recently, many great directors have said that you should not be a director, that you have destroyed the industry of directors, what do you think?"

Lan Tian: "I think they're outdated!"

A reporter from Guangzhou Daily. . . . .

Dare to say it, but this is the blue sky!

"It's as if they don't understand why I make material things." Everyone is arguing why I emphasize material things. In fact, material things are things I want to discuss in movies or on a larger level. Many big directors occasionally miss, It's because they don't know that the current movie audience is constantly changing, from the previous generation to the next generation. In 2003, the average age of watching movies was 25.7 years old, but in 2009 it has become 21.7 years old. A 21-year-old is a college student. If you still use the ideas of the previous generation to make movies, of course there will be problems. "

"Why discuss material things? In our previous generation, the concept of material things did not exist in their lives. They all wore the same pants, had the same hairstyle, and even ate the same food. What they needed to face was survival, but now By 2009, most people will not experience the extreme state of survival. But people still struggle and suffer because of material things, because the gap between the rich and the poor in society is widening and so on.”

Lan Tian: "The Great Times tells about the drastic transformation process from graduating from university to entering the society. "Everyone is equal in the university, but after you graduate and enter the society, your outlook on life and the world will be like a jar. shattered. "

Lan Tian concluded: "The previous generation of filmmakers made movies with old movie concepts, and did not provide the movies that young people want to watch. The audience will still watch the movies of the older generation of filmmakers, but they will be hungry and want to watch young people. A little movie!"

Lan Tian's interview really slapped all the filmmakers who bombarded him in the face!

This also allowed others to understand Lan Tian's temper. He was really fearless, and he dared to directly bombard the entire group of directors when he first entered the director industry!

This is a bit like Xu Qian back then!
Lan Tian's current behavior is catering to the minds of many young people. What do young people like to do most?That is questioning authority, rebellion!
It can be said that Lan Tian did this on purpose, because the group he directed "The Great Era" is facing the younger generation!
He's trying to make himself an idol for these young people so they can walk into the cinema and make their money!

"Haha, the blue sky is mighty!"

"Lan Tian is so domineering!"

"As expected of my idol!"

"It's so cool, I must support "Big Times"!"

"Don't say anything, just Chong Lantian's personality will definitely support "The Great Times"!"

""Big Times" is a movie for our young people, of course we are going to support him!"

"It doesn't matter whether we are superficial or materialistic, but I just like "The Great Times". I want to save money and watch it, and I have to watch it more times!"

"Lantian's "Big Times" is in line with the values ​​of our modern young people, but those stubborn old people don't agree with it, but what are they?"

. . . . . . . . . . . .

Director Jia Sheng criticized Lan Tian unceremoniously.

Jia Sheng: China's film market is immature
Jia Sheng also responded unceremoniously to this, saying that the decline in the age group of Chinese audiences is actually due to the immaturity of the Chinese movie-watching market.

Jia Sheng said: "We know that Eastwood, who is in his 70s, has gone from actor to director and still won the Oscar. Many directors represented by Spielberg have made very classic movies in their 70s and 50s. From the history of film Look, in fact, all the classic works of masters were created after the age of 55, between the ages of 70 and 21. If China is only 21 years old or blackjack, then this is an immature audience. If you only meet this In the case of the market, the movie becomes monotonous."

Xu Qian also said in an interview: "In the past, there were many successful cases of cross-border directors at home and abroad, but most of them had to start training from grassroots roles. Workers, screenwriters and a series of low-level roles have begun to rise up, and there is also a lack of professional training in director skills. As long as you have a "feel" for the movie and get started, the work will appear to lack depth, the story is not well told, and the jokes are used. Gorgeous costumes and scenes and other "peripheral" things scare people first! If it doesn't work, just use a few popular actors to show up, and you won't be afraid that no one will join you. Anyway, audiences are willing to buy tickets to listen to a MV these days Let's go to the cinema!"
