"Why do we like 'raids'?"

On the third Monday of December, the latest issue of "Within the Movie" was officially released, and the cover story was officially the most popular "raid" recently, which once again caused a lot of discussion in the industry.

If you look at the professional film reviews of "The Raid", you can find that after the premiere of the film, "Inside the Movie" once published two reviews by Kun Dabin and another professional film critic, the latter of which mentioned A point of view:

In the frenzied bombardment of computer special effects, Lu Qian returned to the mortal body itself, stripped off the mecha equipment and super powers, allowing the audience to experience the capabilities and limits of human beings once again. A rebellion with the development of intelligence, computerization and special effects.

This time, "Inside the Movie" further analyzes the ins and outs of this retro action movie to the audience through face-to-face interviews with the two core protagonists, Guan Zhou and Lu Qian.

In the cover story, Guan Zhou discussed the status quo of action doubles in a very profound and in-depth manner - he did not shy away from his work before becoming an actor, and stated bluntly,

"Actually, I don't know how to act, and what is finally shown on the big screen are all moments captured by the director." He made no secret of his admiration for Lu Qian.

From the situation of action doubles, it is undoubtedly unique to go deep into the history of changes in action movies, especially the changes in the last ten years.

Later, Lu Qian talked about the source of inspiration for the film "Raid" - the fire, "On the movie screen, we have transformed our wildest and most romantic dreams into reality, which is undoubtedly the most magical moment. , but when we walked out of the cinema, we suddenly realized that we had to face life with both fists, and that huge gap was impactful."

"I'm not saying don't dream, but I'm saying that we also have the same power, we can overcome all the difficulties in life."

Undoubtedly, this further proves the "inside the movie"'s own point of view. When people in the industry analyzed the reasons why the "raid" was so praised and won the market affirmation, they also expressed the same idea.

However, in recent years, in fact, action movies have been released one after another without interruption, so why are other movies not successful, but "raid"?

After all, it's the director.

"Composition, lighting, sound effects, camera movement, editing, the film blooms with dazzling charm in the hands of director Lu Qian, moving freely through the carefully designed fighting scenes, always ensuring that the audience is in a burst of adrenaline. condition."

"And the literary drama with a long-lasting lingering rhythm to the point has completed its task perfectly, allowing the audience to leave some chews after enjoying the popcorn. From the perspective of genre films, Lu Qian has indeed did it to the extreme.”

No wonder, professional film critics think this is the best of the decade, and even if it was placed 30 years ago when the stars are shining, it can still occupy a place among the classics.

The exclusive interview of "Within the Movie" further revealed this mystery, allowing the audience to deeply appreciate the excellence of the film "The Raid", and the explosion of the box office is a predictable result, even in the face of menacing The "Journey of Ice and Fire 3" is no less.

More importantly, "Lu Qian VS Streamer Films 2.0" is about to debut, and people's expectations have already been ignited.

The fiasco of "Boss Speeding" is still vivid in my mind. "Journey of Ice and Fire 3" is coming soon, and "Raid" has entered the third week of its screening. Obviously, "Journey of Ice and Fire 3" has the overall upper hand. This should be Liuguangying It's the best time for the industry to get back on the scene, so what will Streamer Films do?

In the conference room, there was silence, and no one even dared to raise their heads easily, letting the silence spread slowly, pressing heavily on his chest and shoulders, almost breathless.

"... This Lu Qian said it was from our company. What's going on?"

At the front end of the oval conference table, someone finally made a sound to break the suffocating silence, but the question raised was silent for a while.

Qi Yunguang could feel the scorching gaze falling on him, as if a hole was about to burn out in the next second, he knew that he needed to react, even if he didn't want to carry the black cauldron, but now he can only Boldly went into battle.

"Yes, Mr. Shao, he used to be a trainee in our singer department."

"But because of the love in private, and then the love was caught by Yunxiang Entertainment and broke a series of negative news, we quickly terminated the contract and fired him to express our attitude that we will never tolerate raising rape."

In the high-level meeting, Qi Yunguang appeared much more modest, and his words were concise but sharp, pointing directly to the key points, and in a blink of an eye, the responsibility was completely dismissed.

At this time, Shao Jiang, who was sitting at the front, didn't have much expression, and seemed to be thinking about the deep meaning behind Qi Yunguang's words.

Shao Jiang is currently the largest shareholder and president of Streamer Films.

In fact, the Shaw Group is very large and covers a wide range of industries. It is comprehensively spread around the media, entertainment, publishing and other industries. Liuguang Pictures is only a subsidiary company, but the grievances and grievances of the giants are complicated. Shao Jiang is the second generation of the Shaw Group. A total of four brothers and sisters are competing for the future control of the Shaw Group. Naturally, each of them is particularly concerned about the industry they are responsible for—

This is the apprenticeship they declare themselves to have the right to inherit.

Judging from the current situation, Shao Jiang is in the leading position, and the streamer film industry is developing into the top No. 1 film company in the world.

It is precisely because of this that Shao Jiang is very attentive to the company's position. After all, the old man has not much time, and he has been in poor health in the past two years. Now is the critical moment for them to compete for the right of inheritance.

"Ah, so what's happening now is that we fired him, so he's going to come back with revenge? The media knows, so they've been fanning the flames, right?"

Shao Jiang made a brief summary, although the words were question marks, but the expression did not mean to wait for an answer at all, and in the blink of an eye, he was clearly in a state of contemplation.

Silence spread again.

Obviously Shao Jiang didn't say anything, but Qi Yunguang found that his back was soaked with sweat.

"Is he important?" Shao Jiang finally spoke.

"Huh?" Qi Yunguang replied conditionedly, he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

"I mean, is this Lu Qian important?" Shao Jiang repeated.

"..." Qi Yunguang didn't know how to answer, but there was someone next to him to help out.

"So far, he has only made two films in total, and the production cost is less than 10 million, but the cumulative box office of the two films has exceeded 2 billion."

A simple sentence, but you can deeply feel the shock behind it - at least so far, no director has been able to do it.

Shao Jiang pondered for a moment, and then asked again, "So, is he important?"
