Chapter 219 The Brilliant [-] Million Club
"The commercialization of Chinese movies started a few years ago. In fact, in the world, movies were originally a commodity at the beginning, and they are still a commodity now! Even literary films are also a commodity. Otherwise, if literary films always need to pay back , it is very likely that it will become smaller and smaller.”

Chen Xi paused slightly and then said: "As a director, what I want to say is that everyone will have their own demands, but this demand requires a sufficient foundation and a good environment. "33 Days of Broken Love" is not a purely commercial film. This, I think, can be seen from many young people who laugh with tears. As for saying that this movie is a so-called betrayal of the movie... What I want to say is, please don't just stare at me, Mr. Zhuang! From a purely cinematic point of view, I don't think there is any problem with "33 Days of Broken Relationship"!"

After saying all these words in one breath, Chen Xi's mouth was also parched.

But there are some hearty feelings.

This is what Chen Xi has always insisted on.

Commercialization is the mainstream of movies, and it is true that there should be no lack of artistry, but commercialization is obviously more important.

In today's world, the best film artistry is in Europe, but what about the influence of European films?The ones who really sail the seas and conquer the world are the giant Hollywood ships with huge volume and serious commercialization.And if there is no commercialization of films as funds, where will the money come from to make literary films?
If possible, which director is not willing to shoot a film with high artistic content and rich humanistic care?
And what Chen Xi is most upset about is that these people disappeared when Chen Kaige filmed "The Promise" and Zhang Yimou filmed "Three Guns Surprise". Groups of people who bully the soft and fear the hard make him extremely disgusted.

Chen Xi's fierce news is better than the other!

Now it has shifted to the discussion of literary and commercial films.

"So, Director Chen, do you mean to say that what we need are commercial films instead of art films, and commercial films rather than artistic ones?" ), and their questions came out at the right time.

This kind of question was quite sharp, and Chen Xi remembered this reporter again.

"What I said just now didn't say that we don't need commercial films, let alone that I haven't mentioned the issue of artistry. Literary films and artistry are two different things. Although it is relatively difficult for commercial films to take into account artistry, without artistry, The charm of a commercial film will not last too long! So my point of view is that commercial films should be the main one, while artistic ones should be supplemented, commercial films should be the main one, and artistic ones should be supplemented!"

Now that Chen Xi has come, she has spoken out her guiding ideology.

That's what he wanted to say too.

In fact, everyone wants to practice the path in their hearts. Chen Xi herself is also a professional. If given the opportunity, who doesn’t want humanistic care, who doesn’t want to make a literary film?

But commercial blockbusters can create a huge impact and bring huge benefits.

These benefits, no matter what they are for, are essential.

... Chen Xi's things he said so far today are actually quite impactful...

The words he said were already very sharply targeted, especially the words aimed at Zhuang Guofei, which were full of gunpowder. Anyone could hear that Chen Xi almost felt like tearing his face.

"Some people say that "33 Days of Broken Relationship" has received severe negative reviews so far, which will affect the film's next box office. Some people even think that it is basically impossible for "33 Days of Broken Love" to break through 2 million at the final box office. Yes, what do you think?"

Although today is the celebration banquet of "33 Days of Broken Relationship", to be honest, the topic is completely centered around this movie, there are no jumps, there is really only such a problem.

Chen Xi smiled slightly: "For this point, please wait and see! The word-of-mouth and box office of "33 Days of Broken Relationship" have already explained everything. I believe that in the eyes of movie fans, the next movie box office will not be poor because of some so-called ulterior motives." Just judge and end your journey!"

...After the celebration banquet of "33 Days of Broken Love", Chen Xi's words quickly spread throughout the Chinese film circle.Everyone heard Chen Xi's words.

Some people thought he was talking nonsense, but naturally many people thought that Chen Xi was telling the truth.

In fact, what Chen Xi said was indeed very sharp.

Especially the comments about Zhuang Guofei, and the last sentence of others' "ulterior motives" are really murderous.

As a result, there was a storm in the Chinese film circle, and many people now have a kind of thought: Chen Xi has become another Feng Xiaogang, Zhuang Guofei and others, although they have not performed at the box office. It's a good movie, but in fact, they are highly respected in the Chinese film circle and have a huge network. Chen Xi offended this group of people, and almost offended the current mainstream film circle...

Such Chen Xi, what kind of path can he take next?

Everyone knows such things as shooting the first bird, but if you can endure it all the time, there may be a chance to rise...

However, the current Chen Xi does not have so many ideas, especially the resources he has now are terrifying, and there are still many opportunities in the future. He will not be trapped by these things, and he will not feel that he is a little bit of The weak situation will continue for a long time.

Of course, offending the mainstream movie industry, there will definitely be a lot of troubles, but Chen Xi believes that these troubles are all within his control now.

...The media on the second day was basically blown up!
It's all because of the words Chen Xi said at the celebration banquet of "33 Days of Broken Love", those words penetrated into many categories, and they were quite profound and sharp, as if a knife had pierced many people's hearts.

Regarding Chen Xi's rebuttal, everyone has mixed opinions. Of course, on the whole, there are still more praises.

Because Chen Xi's words, although they are very sharp and have a strong pertinence, but he does not attack in life, and basically they are all on the defensive, and there is no language that is too aggressive... So this is also true. It is easier to win everyone's favor.

However, it is almost inevitable that Chen Xi's headlines are everywhere in the major media, especially in the movie section.

"<33 Days of Broken Love> Celebration Banquet, Chen Xi Responds to Rumors That Broken Love Is Not a Movie"

"The Post-[-]s Director Chen Xi's Film Business Art View, Targeting the Older Generation Filmmakers"

"Chen Xi alludes to the old director's words to suppress newcomers, and wants to rise with commercial films"

...Many media, especially online media, are now spreading similar headlines all over China at a very fast speed. Anyway, after Chen Xi went through this, his fire has risen again. Among the directors, his exposure rate was quite high, but after such a toss, his exposure rate was even higher.

It's just that these news headlines themselves are strongly inflammatory, and many places always make people feel inappropriate. They are purely headlines to attract readers.

Chen Xi is also very troubled by these behaviors of the media, but now he has no other options, he can only hope that everyone can distinguish right from wrong.

After all, although the reporters can come up with a provocative headline, it is impossible for them to change the content of the specific interview with Chen Xi, so even if the headline is full of tricks, if you really look at the content carefully, most people will know Chen Xi's original words, which of course also include some of Chen Xi's attack targets. Of course, even if they know what the objective facts are, they will never ignore the content of the title...

So Chen Xi ignited a war.

Faced with similar titles, fans everywhere have mixed reviews.

There are indeed quite a few people who were immediately impressed after seeing the titles. Therefore, those who originally hated Chen Xi said that Chen Xi didn't understand modesty at all, while those who originally liked Chen Xi very much, from these titles He directly began to scold those so-called old directors and filmmakers of the older generation!
But those who really read the content will have enough thinking.

"The media is really misleading. Strictly speaking, allusions and suppression are all speculative words. Chen Xi didn't have any strong words from the beginning to the end. What he said was just an objective fact. Anyway, I Shout out to Chen Xi!"

"Most people may not be able to see clearly what is commercial or artistic, but what kind of movie is more popular, the right to vote is in the hands of the audience, and they will also decide where to put their votes."

"What Chen Xi said is true. Some people are too obsessed with the so-called artistry. But the problem is, even if it is a literary film, they don't do very well. What qualifications do they have to criticize others?"

... A turmoil became bigger and bigger, and it lasted for several days. Everyone was fighting each other over this matter, including those who were very Chen Xi, and of course there were many black Chen Xi, but those who were very Chen Xi There are the most people, and these people have formed a huge force, and they are beginning to suppress their opponents more and more.

As for the old artists, they also replied to some articles that were neither painful nor itchy, but Chen Xi didn't pay much attention to them, but under their watchful eyes, "33 Days of Broken Love" ushered in its third week of release. After seven days of release this week, it scored 3214 million at the box office, and it is still the box office leader. After Chen Xi's talk, the film's box office has risen a lot. The cumulative box office has reached 19149 million yuan, and it is only a matter of time before it breaks through 33 million box office. The problem, so Chen Xi slapped the faces of these people again. Those who said that it was basically impossible for "[-] Days of Broken Relationship" to exceed [-] million at the box office were left speechless.

In the fourth week, the box office of "33 Days of Broken Love" officially exceeded 2 million yuan, and Chen Xi became a member of the [-] million yuan club, becoming the fifth director to direct a single film with a mainland box office of more than [-] million yuan!
