Chapter 1031
Zhou Xia's relaxed answer caused a burst of laughter from below.

As we all know that he is the owner of Xiahua Video Network, it is really interesting to advertise his own website so clearly now.

"Director Zhou, what do you think of "Descendants of Yanhuang" being evaluated as your first main theme movie?" The female reporter from Xiahua Video Network continued to ask.

This question is of great concern to many foreign media. Now that it is asked by Xiahua Video Network, it will be easier to answer.

Hearing this question, the media present began to pay attention to Zhou Xia seriously.

"I don't think so for the first main theme movie. If my previous films were all commercial films, what about "Starting Line", this movie is about education, family, and human growth. Isn't it the main theme?
Of course, this new film of mine involves a more macroscopic level, involving elements such as the country, soldiers, war, and patriotism, so everyone may think so.

But what I want to say is that everyone has an identity and a nationality, and of course they all have their own sense of belonging. This is the most common feeling of family and country.

What this movie shows is actually a group of ordinary people, ordinary descendants of Chinese people, who are soldiers and doctors by profession. They are just about their work and life, and they don't deliberately express or promote too much.

If the movie was about other professions, a policeman, a network engineer, a university teacher, the story would naturally be different, but wouldn't that be the main theme? I don't think so!
The so-called main theme movies include not only movies with major themes of revolutionary history that fully embody mainstream ideology, but also movies with realistic themes that are close to the lives of ordinary audiences, promote mainstream values, and eulogize human life.

From this point of view, my "Starting Line" is actually a movie with the main theme, so please don't discuss this. Don't you all watch movies because of the genre? My movie must be a movie about military action. If you like it Please support me a lot. "

Hearing Zhou Xia's answer, most of the media in the audience thought it made sense and applauded.

Only a few media, and a few foreign media felt that this answer was a bit far-fetched.

"Starting Line" satirizes and reflects on the current education system and children's education, which is completely different from "Descendants of Yan and Huang" which praises the country and soldiers.

As the most famous director in China and the most well-known public figure overseas, Zhou Xia is very young and born in the 90s, so many media are paying attention to his every move.

"A question from the second media." Xiaobai pointed to another media.

"Hello, director, I'm a reporter from Surf Entertainment. As a military action movie, "Descendants of Yanhuang" is the only one in China that can compare with Hollywood military action movies in terms of production level.

Compared with other previous films of this type that gathered a large number of stars to interpret the background of national history, Director Zhou tells the ordinary and extraordinary life of two ordinary couples with love as the introduction and ending from another level.

In the movie, starting from small things, the hero starts from arresting gangsters on the street, then participates in military tournaments, then protects international leaders, then rescues fishermen at sea, beats pirates, rescues fishermen, and supports Africa.

It shows how a large number of modern special soldiers fight on the front line and the tasks they face. The whole movie does not use too many dialogues and words to talk about patriotism and other words, but it makes people feel very warm and moving. Feel admiration and gratitude for giving.

May I ask the director, how do you think about the impact of occupation on a person's life? What is the difference in a person's contribution to the country and patriotism if a person's occupation is different? "

Zhou Xia listened carefully to the male surfing entertainment reporter's question. He thought he was going to ask about patriotism in the movie, but he turned a corner in the end.

But he still heard the trap in this question, pondered for a while, picked up the microphone and said seriously: "Of course a career has a great impact on a person's life. There is an ancient proverb: Men are afraid of entering the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man." , so far this sentence is still very useful.

Most people will become professionals when they enter an industry. Soldiers defend their homes, doctors save lives, entrepreneurs run businesses, white-collar workers go to work, reporters interview and report news, actors act, directors film, etc. Everyone is in the industry. It largely limits the circle of your life.

I don’t think I need to say more about this. Everyone knows it well. As for the difference between career contribution to the country and patriotism, it’s not appropriate for me to answer this question, but I can talk about my views.

Every citizen abides by the law, pays taxes and pays taxes, and every industry and everyone does their own thing well, which is to contribute to the country. As for patriotism, it is the same in all countries in the world. The country guarantees the legal rights of every citizen. Obligation to patriotism has nothing to do with occupation. "

"Thank you, director." The reporter heard that there were no loopholes in Zhou Xia's answer, so he didn't ask any more questions and sat down.

Next came a question from a female reporter from Sohu Entertainment.

"Director, hello, this is the first time you and I have directed a military action movie. The scene is grand and shocking, and it involves sea ships, tanks, and aircraft fighting. Are these post-production computer CG or real military equipment? It's true, how did you coordinate and arrange the shooting?"

Zhou Xia glanced at the female reporter, very puzzled, Sohu Entertainment has always been gossip, but this time it asked such a question.

He has already talked about this kind of question in an interview, and there is nothing to avoid. I don't know what the reporter means by asking this question again today.

"Except for a small amount of computer synthesis used in the post-connection of aerospace information, this movie is basically real. The ships, tanks, and planes you mentioned are also real. They are not props or computer synthesis. As for how Coordinated and arranged, I have already mentioned it before, so I won’t say much again, of course, some scenes were edited and some scenes of military exercises, and not all of them were filmed.”

Zhou Xia replied very bluntly, he would not give face to some of today's somewhat eccentric media.

Judging from the current situation, it is more likely that the global publicity and marketing team of "Mission Impossible 5" is deliberately guiding the topic of "Descendants of Yanhuang" in this direction.

They knew very well that they couldn't compete with "Descendants of Yanhuang" in China, but this would put Zhou Xia's film at a disadvantage due to ideology in overseas markets.

Of course Zhou Xia is aware of this, and he decided to blacklist the media and reporters who are targeting these issues today.

Seeing that Zhou Xia was obviously unhappy on stage, the female reporter said 'thank you' in a casual way and didn't ask any more questions.

Originally, there were individual reporters who took red envelopes and thought carefully, but when they saw this situation, they began to think about it.

After all, one red envelope is not enough to spend a lifetime. If Zhou Xia is unhappy and gets blacklisted by Xiahua Film and Television, how will he be in the entertainment industry in the future?
Sure enough, after Zhou Xia's face darkened a little, the next few questions from the media became much more normal. They were all about the movie's plot, characters, interesting things about filming, and box office predictions.

Finally, it was time for free questions. It was the first foreign media reporter's turn to ask questions. The reporter's question immediately caused an uproar in the venue.
