Hollywood Drawing

"No foreign friend has ever appeared on the stage and received such a grand and enthusiastic treatment. There are fighter jets J-7E performing formations to pay tribute, and hundreds of media reporters greet each other. Even the roof is full of fans. This is 97 Never before years ago. The only director with such passion for acquiring this land is Wayne Greenberg!"

At 19:40 in the evening, under the watchful eyes of countless families in this land, a TV news commentary program known for its public opinion supervision officially started with the rigorous voice of the host Bai Wensa.

This column called "Focus on Interview" has always been one of the highest rated columns. This column not only supervises the public opinion of the whole society in a serious and fair manner, but also focuses on official attention, public concern, and ubiquity. It is one of the most important channels for people to understand current affairs after dinner in this era.

But after today's show started, all the viewers who watched TV found something different. The host Bai Wensa's voice is still steady, and no one can pick out a single fault. But the video that appeared with his voice was fundamentally different from the usual social news that followed reports.

"His name is Wayne Greenberg, a world-recognized film artist, a well-known philanthropist, social activist, and a lot of media. He is called the last chivalrous owner of the Western world. He is the Oscar The best director is not just a director, but behind the name, it occupies the final interpretation right of a certain type of film art..."

Following Bai Wensa's narration, constantly switching video materials appeared on the TV sets of countless families. It was a young man with a tough and sunny appearance, who appeared in the same attire in various changing occasions.

There are scenes where he holds the Oscar statuette, there are scenes on the cover of "Time Magazine" surrounded by countless media icons, there are scenes where he hugs the little boy with leukemia, and there are scenes where he wears a DIY bat suit. After each scene appears. , almost all briefly explained the background story of the scene.

"Wayne Greenberg, known by fans as the Lord of Darkness, is the world's top film master who came to this land for the first time. And among our many fans, this man who thinks he owes a movie ticket , was born in Los Angeles on March 3, 1970. Both parents have been engaged in film production. Perhaps it is the good family atmosphere that cultivated this master who changed the form of film.

He speaks fluent Beijing dialect, likes to eat Chinese food, and loves and understands oriental culture. Tonight's guest on "Focus Interview" is the good friend of this Oriental, Wayne Greenberg, let's get to know this special foreign friend together..."

"Ready to start."

The voice of a staff member of the TV station appeared in Wayne's ears.

Against the simple studio background, a figure in a straight dark suit appeared in front of countless audiences with the host Bai Wensa after the TV camera cut.

Long before the TV show started, the two sides had already made strict limits on the scope of the issue. Everyone knows the importance of this show. In order to avoid some uncontrollable unexpected situations, it is inevitable to outline the interview in advance.

"Film is also one of the channels for Chinese culture to communicate with the world. Mr. Greenberg, what do you think about Chinese film culture and related issues arising from the exchange with world film culture?"

Without any self-introduction, without any polite opening, and without any buffer, Bai Wensa upholds his own interview style, pointing directly at the key points, perspective issues, and highlighting the highlights of the interview theme. This is a serious social nature. TV column, and has strict requirements on time, which is one of the reasons why he goes straight to the topic.

"I think......"

When Wayne saw that the camera lens turned slightly, and the red light was flashing at him, he knew that this close-up of his face should appear on countless TV sets. He pursed his lips hard, and after pondering for a while, he immediately said in Chinese:

"The world needs to understand the current country through some channels, especially today, when China's international status is becoming more and more important, it needs to let more people see the rapid changes in this land. Just the film is to let the world know about this country. One of the good channels for a piece of land.

Through the exchange of film culture, more people will discover the enthusiasm and hospitality of the people in this land. I don’t know much about other aspects, but I know deeply that the development of the film industry is also inseparable from the driving effect of rapid economic growth. I hope that in the near future, I can see this land with its own strong film industry system. "

These words, which are basically prepared answers in advance, also represent the theme of this interview. Everything related to the film industry can be discussed, but it will not involve politics. Of course, Wayne will not be stingy with some of his true thoughts, and he knows how to say it so that he can gain the favor of the audience in front of the TV. .

As one of the most experienced hosts, Wensa Bai has collected a lot of information on the interviewees in advance. Although only looking at the performance of the Hollywood director after coming to the East, he is definitely gentle, polite and easy to talk, but after learning about the relevant information, he will know , this is by no means an interview subject who can lead the interview rhythm by him.

In the impression of countless audiences, his interview style is all about prominent themes, and his on-site reports are even more vivid and exciting. Dao interview rhythm.

But the person he is facing today is completely different. The other party is one of the best film directors in the world right now, and he knows a lot about the media industry. The other party also has an identity as a billionaire. It is a proper capitalist, and there is no one who can make hundreds of millions of dollars from scratch.

"As a senior filmmaker, Mr. Greenberg, what do you think of today's Chinese films?"

"The Chinese film industry is still in its infancy, but this land has all the potential conveniences for success." Facing this question, Wayne certainly would not criticize stupidly, or talk about some objective problems, he The answer is full of anticipation and praise.

"There are the most enthusiastic and best moviegoers here, there is no shortage of dynamic filmmakers, and there are enough cultural features to be used in the production of movies. Take kung fu, for example, in my movie "Batman" : The Hour of War" and "Batman: The Dark Knight" both have elements of kung fu.

Another movie "The Matrix" written, produced and invested by me, all the fighting scenes in it are also designed based on kung fu. Such unique and charming cultural elements are very popular with movie fans after they are shown in movies.

However, if the film industry is to mature, patient development is still needed in this land. As more and more localized films are produced, the film market will gradually expand and grow, and various industry orders and rules will gradually follow. Sound, my personal opinion is, give the movie industry enough patience, because there is a world-class movie audience here. "

As long as you participate in such a TV interview, the topic will inevitably revolve around Chinese films. The two sides have exchanged this point for a long time, not talking about the specifics, only talking about the general direction, which is the bottom line of communication proposed by Warner Bros.

In fact, Wayne's answer was quite awkward. In his last life, as a movie projectionist in the most important part of the movie distribution system, he knew too much about the ups and downs that the movie market here would experience in the future.

But fortunately, the final result was good. As he said, it has all the necessary facilities for the success of the film market. With the rapid development of the film industry, more and more good localized films are emerging. Judging from the necessary labor pains, it has indeed become the second largest film market in the world.

This is one of the reasons why he personally doesn't like those banned film directors, because no matter from that perspective, the market has successfully become the second largest ticket market in the world, and these people have not played a role in promoting it. Even after the market became bigger, hundreds of flowers bloomed, and local blockbuster literary films began to appear, but the directors were never those of the older generation.

"I noticed that you mentioned culture." Bai Wensa glanced at the time covertly. Since the show is only 15 minutes long, plus the introduction and design at the beginning and the end, there is not much time left for the interview. .

"I think many movie fans and filmmakers are wondering whether the nation's nationality is also the world's? Or can a film that represents the national culture ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ also be successful on the world stage?"

This is one of the hardest questions to answer tonight. This is like asking a person which came first, the chicken or the egg. In fact, no matter how you answer, you may be criticized.

In fact, Wayne himself has a very clear answer to this question, but what makes him feel embarrassed is whether to express his own views, or just like the previous answer, say something that everyone loves to hear .

"If speaking as a friend..."

When he found that the camera started to close-up himself again, his face became serious and his voice was full of formality. "As a good friend, I will tell you that what belongs to the nation has never belonged to the world!"

As soon as his words came out, Bai Wensa, who was sitting on the side, changed his face immediately, and then looked at Wayne nervously. This is the first time since the show began, this host, who is known for being stable, has a big mood swing. .

This year's "Focus Interview" is not a set of virtual live broadcasts. What worries the host the most is always the broadcast accident. When Wayne's answer did not follow the outline communicated in advance, the TV station started from From the host to the director, almost everyone was taken aback.
