Chapter 815 The Sad Brother Chen Kai
Immediately afterwards, when I met the audience in the cinema, many audiences also complained that they couldn't even remember after watching the movie.

"Hello, Director Tang, I have watched "Operation Red Sea" twice, but I found that it is very different from your previous films.

Whether it is an inspirational comedy like "Mystery Superstar", a sci-fi blockbuster like "Interstellar", or a spy movie like "The Wind", or a movie with realistic themes like "Partner in China", the characters are very full. of.

However, the characters in "OPERATION RED SEA" are somewhat facial. After watching it, I can't outline the image of any of the characters in my heart. Why did I fail so much in character creation this time? "

This is also a question for many audiences. Basically, audiences over the age of 25 grew up watching Tang An's movies. It is not uncommon for the characters to be weaker, but even in "Shark Beach", the heroine has a growth process. From an ordinary person going through layers of hardships and dangers to his life, and finally fighting a shark to the death, the state of the character is fully displayed step by step in this process.

But "Operation Red Sea", if someone around you asks you if the movie is exciting?You will answer: wonderful!
If you ask me: Is it worth the fare?
I will answer: value!
But if you ask me: who is the protagonist of this film?

I'll answer: eight fighters.

As for what they were called and what they did, I really can't remember... well
Tang An thought for a while, and said with a slightly serious face, ""Operation Red Sea" shows a real war. We try our best to let the audience see a more real side."

An individual is extremely insignificant to a war. Whether it is an ordinary soldier or a special soldier, in a real war, the individual is extremely insignificant.They are only a small part of the war, just like a small screw on a precision instrument, and the soldier king will be killed by an ordinary bullet at any time.

In fact, every member of Jiaolong is portrayed with flesh and blood. Communication soldier Zhuang Yu felt that he was not a qualified member of the Jiaolong commando at first. , There will also be a moment of fear and timidity.

But after the war, he gradually grew up, and before he died, he held his last breath and connected the communication device. I think this is a relatively full-bodied character, but the movie is limited in length and cannot be too detailed.

Whether it is the captain Yang Rui or the sniper observer Li Dong, they are all members of Jiaolong, and it is impossible for one of them to be worth a thousand.Only by working closely together and exerting the strength of the team can we win.

If someone charges, someone needs to cover him; if someone falls down, someone needs to be rescued. In the real war scene, the individual is extremely small.

They all have the same title: Hua Guo Soldier.

Just like other soldiers who guard us and our country in their own positions, whether it is Zhao Qian, Sun Li, or Zhou Wu Zheng Wang, they are all Chinese soldiers! "

After a busy day, I ran all over the capital, repeating the same things and saying the same things.

The movie has just been released, and there are few questions from the audience. In two days, when ordinary audiences, film critics, and interested people have thoroughly researched the movie, there will be a lot of doubts, and all kinds of ghosts and snakes will also appear. .

Another day passed, and on July 7rd, "Operation Red Sea" earned 3 million on the second day of its release, and the total box office in the two days was 3.4 million, still accounting for more than 6.5% of the market.

On the 3rd, Chen Kai's "Taoist Down the Mountain" was also released. During the previous publicity, relying on Lin Zhiling and Juan Zhou, this boat scene with a big beauty and a middle-aged Mediterranean greasy man attracted a lot of attention, and it won a high box office of 6200 million on the first day.

The first-day data of 6200 million is already very high for ordinary movies, and it also refreshed Chen Kaige's personal best score.

However, in the face of "Operation Red Sea" with 3.1 million on the first day, this is not enough.

Although it was a personal best result, Brother Chen Kai was not happy at all at this time.

At this time, the news on the computer suddenly questioned whether he made "Farewell My Concubine".

"After watching "Taoist Down the Mountain", I believed that Brother Chen Kai was not the real director of "Farewell My Concubine"!!!"

On a certain forum, the number of clicks and replies on a post with this title has been soaring in just a few hours.

After analyzing these two movies at length, the meaning is the same as the title, saying that "Farewell My Concubine" was made by Chen Kaige and his father.

This topic has been brought up frequently in recent years, and various revelations have been made.

Some people even began to suspect that "Yellow Earth" was Zhang Yimou's work, and what he said was true.

What co-director, Zhang Yimou has no background, and was robbed of the fruits of victory.

"It's ridiculous!"

And "Farewell My Concubine", his father brought him the best team in China, including the number one executive director in the Mainland, Zhang Jinzhan.

An executive director is usually considered an assistant director. Strictly speaking, an executive director is also a director. He exists in a film crew where two or more directors jointly shoot, or under the name of the chief director. take some irrelevant shots

It's just that now all the awesome executive directors have become directors themselves. If they don't work as producers, they will gradually become almost the same as assistant directors.

Almost all blockbuster films at the beginning of the century participated in Zhang Jinzhan, who was also a classmate of Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou.

"Farewell My Concubine", "Hero", "Golden Armor in the City", "Lust, Caution", "Certificate of Fame". The Hollywood movie "Kill Bill" also has Zhang Jinzhan's participation.

The team his father hired, as well as Zhang Jinzhan, helped him a lot, but it was a film he worked so hard to complete, so it was said in a few words that his father helped him make the film.

The comments of netizens below are also extremely dazzling.

For example: "When film production was monopolized, being a director also required hard work, hehe, what a spectacle!"

There are still many comments to re-arrange the plot of "Taoist Down the Mountain"!

It's not just a website, slowly many viewers who watched "Taoist Down the Mountain" and were very disappointed also joined in.

The first piece of Douban's short commentary is: "Is "Farewell My Concubine" really filmed by Brother Chen Kai?" It hangs very prominently.

In the evening, Xinlang.com pushed a group of public relations drafts, and released the set photos of "Farewell My Concubine". Conquer rumors with facts.

These photos were also quickly reposted, and countless people watched and commented.

Brother Chen Kai is also helpless, if it is not a last resort, how could he agree to use such a method for public relations and to prove himself?
Isn't this the same as asking you to prove that you are yourself, that you are alive!

"It's absurd!"

However, Chen Kai had to keep repeating the word "ridiculous" for the sake of the box office of "Taoist Down the Mountain".

In fact, it is very sad to think about it carefully. A national master director used the set photos from more than ten years ago to prove that his best work was really shot by himself.
