Chapter 1022 Premiere interview, talk about genre films

"What are the descendants of Yan and Huang, that is, the sons and daughters of the Chinese nation? I believe that I don't need to explain this question. Everyone here understands it, because we all are."

After Zhou Xia answered the host's question calmly and firmly, the guests, media, and movie fans in the audience all applauded emotionally.

Because it is related to the title of the movie and the story of the movie, Zhou Xia's words are very suitable for the occasion and atmosphere, and naturally touched everyone.

"The director said it really well. We are all descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and we all understand the meaning of this word. Director, Yaya, please sit down, we have a lot of questions to ask."

Since the premiere ceremony is a movie channel program, this time Aifang's male host is Xin Kai from the movie channel. He pointed to the stage that had been set up like a symposium, and said to Zhou Xia and others.

After Zhou Xia, Yaya, Qingzi, and Zhu Yawen sat down politely, the interview officially began.

"Director, the actor you play, Li Shaochuan, is a soldier, but he is not an ordinary soldier. He is a special soldier who always appears on the front line of various special battlefields in this peaceful era.

Many people say that this character is almost perfect, handsome, gentle and humorous, and also a hot-blooded masculine, full of justice, and a soldier with a fearless spirit of sacrifice. What do you think of this character? Is there really such a person in the world?

The male protagonist in the movie is a hero who defends his family and the country. Many people say that you are also a hero. You are always opening up the market for domestic films and leading domestic films to the world. What do you think of this evaluation? "

"Hehe, well, many people still say that I am a perfect person."

Zhou Xia shrugged and joked about himself, which immediately caused a burst of laughter from the audience, but Yaya and Qingzi next to him showed a little amused expression.

"Of course there is no perfect person in the world, but what we show in the movie is only the relevant aspects of the male lead, which does not mean that he is also perfect in other aspects.

First of all, his emotional performance is very romantic, but he is actually very immature. Fortunately, the heroine is also an emotional idiot. Neither of them is the kind of person who deals with tea, rice, oil and salt all day long, so naturally they will not feel this. a little.

If it is an ordinary person, the hero suddenly appears and then disappears. He is still a soldier. I am afraid that he will be regarded as a liar. Isn’t there a lot of people who pretend to be soldiers to cheat money and sex in news reports? "

There was a lot of laughter from the audience again. Obviously, if you carefully analyze the actor in the movie, he is indeed not an 'ordinary person'. "

Zhou Xia waited for everyone to finish laughing, and then continued: "As for the heroes, the special soldiers represented by the hero of the movie, and countless other soldiers who defend our country, they are all heroes. As for me, like everyone else, I live in the Ordinary people under the protection of these heroes.

As for market development and the like, it was just in time to catch up with this great era, this good era, I used 5068% of my efforts to shoot "Descendants of Yan and Huang", [-] shots, and every shot was devoted to My countless painstaking efforts.

I have been racking my brains to plan and accomplish what I want to do, from sea, water, skydiving, helicopter combat, tank drift, tank battle, all kinds of things we can do to show as much as possible.

Military-themed movies were made again in the past, and they are still made again now. Last year, "Wolf Warrior 1" directed by Wu Jing was a big success, which shows that as long as it is a good work, the market will recognize it. It doesn't mean that I am famous, it is me In developing the market. "

"The director is too humble. As the author of the original work, you also participated in the writing of the script. In this movie, the male protagonist showed four fighting events, plus a love scene full of drama and suspense, which made the whole movie very plot. gripped the audience tightly.

Many people think that it is reasonable to add family and brotherhood to military action films, but love elements are often very difficult to show. What do you think of the script creation of military-themed films? So, how can we balance these elements? "

The station interviewed by Zhou Xia watched it, and without thinking about it right away, he replied directly: "It is still necessary to respect the creation rules of genre films. The scripts of all genre films have some basic requirements of their respective genres. Authors must respect genre films." However, there must be a breakthrough, otherwise all the audience will see are routines.

Compared with other films of the same theme, our film has innovated in battle stories, action scenes, and emotional scenes. Everyone has seen this.

Of course, this is determined by the identities and occupations of the male and female protagonists, but after the opening of the film, within 15 minutes, we pushed the emotional and fighting scenes to two climaxes.

The male protagonist and the female protagonist fall in love at first sight and meet each other. After they meet, the male protagonist has an unexpected incident and goes to participate in the military competition.

We follow the requirements of genre films to lay out the plot, drama conflict and rhythm, and the tension and relaxation are very good. This point is quite prominent. How can some other genre films fail to do these required elements well? It's hard to succeed.

Some action movies look dry, and the hero’s reasons for fighting are not sufficient, making people feel that there is no justice and rationality, so they cannot identify and empathize.

On the other hand, some directors and screenwriters have mastered some so-called genre routines, and just use the framework to follow them everywhere. If they don’t adapt or innovate, it will make people feel that they lack sincerity and are completely imitated and routines. Not recognized.

I have already shot several action films. As an action actor and action director, I also participated in the creation. This allows me to better integrate with the characters and stories of the film when designing action scenes.

This is my little experience in making genre films. I hope that when domestic new directors shoot different types of films, they must abide by the basic elements of genre films and at the same time strive to innovate, so that people can feel refreshing, reasonable, and in line with The characters are individual and dramatic, so the possibility of natural success is higher. "

Zhou Xia said some 'hard stuff', and some filmmakers and media reporters off the stage applauded.

"The director's words are very good and professional. I believe many new directors will benefit a lot from hearing your words. Thank you director, I have a question for Yaya next."

After Xie Lanlan finished speaking, she turned her eyes to Yaya next to her: "Hello, Yaya, the Jiang Muyan you play is an excellent surgeon with a beautiful appearance and excellent skills, but his career is a bit rough, and he is always bullied by some bad guys." Bullying and exclusion.

You are also an excellent and beautiful woman, what do you think is the reason for this situation, and what are the shining points of women in this character you played? "

Yaya took the microphone, paused for a while, and said, "Actually, everyone's life circumstances are different, and their encounters may also vary greatly, so we can't generalize them.

The problems Jiang Muyan encountered, some outstanding and beautiful women in real life have also encountered similar problems, but everyone's coping strategies may be different.

Some people chose to submit, some people chose to escape, and some people, like Jiang Muyan, chose to face the injustice and persist in resistance. "

At this point, Yaya glanced at Zhou Xia beside her, and paused for a while.
