Experts discuss the new atmosphere in the industry: The impetuous trend of film creation is ebbing

the core of Chinese Dream is to let everyone's life be respected, so that Chinese films can really go out to the world.

what inspiration does the box office myth of Wolf Warriors 2 bring to the creation of theme films? How can the theme film achieve a win-win situation in terms of mainstream values and market benefits? How to use movies to convey the family and national feelings and the spirit of the times of contemporary Chinese people. Yesterday afternoon, "the National sentiment and the Spirit of the Times of the current theme Film" sponsored by the Municipal Federation of Literature and Art was held, and nearly 20 film experts held a heated discussion.

"I can really feel the impetuous ebb in this work." Huang Huilin, vice chairman of the Beijing Literary critics Association and a senior professor at Beijing normal University, said excitedly. Having served as a soldier when she was young, she was so impressed by the image of a soldier depicted in Wolf Warriors 2 that she spent 180 yuan to watch it in the cinema. "it's worth it!" She said that the film can stimulate the hearts of the audience, and its reputation is in direct proportion to the current box office. "this can be said to be a return of Chinese film art." The movie is no longer just entertainment, but a comprehensive collection of functions to hit the weakness of everyone's soul, so it is bound to be so popular. "

the beginning of "Wolf Warriors 2" lasted 160 seconds in an underwater fight, because it was so difficult to shoot that Wu Jing was advised to take it off, but he insisted on shooting. Huang Huilin believes that the opening of the film has reached the hearts of the people, and it also makes her feel that the impetuous wind that has accompanied Chinese films for many years is receding. "what is the core of the ebb tide? I think it is the eight words "content is king, audience is the main". "Wolf Warriors 2" 4.5 billion yuan at the box office may be contributed by audiences like me, rather than by collective buying tickets, not by chartered theaters, what does this mean? It shows that the audience is the most important. "

Yin Hong, director of the Film and Television Communication Research Center of Tsinghua University, mentioned that after more than 20 years of exploration, the theme film has found several secrets to success. "the first thing is to make it well. "Wolf Warriors 2" in the recent Chinese films, the production level is first-class. There are more than 4000 shots, and every scene, every shot, and every schedule are carefully designed, and Wu Jing has made a desperate effort to shoot them. At this point, its production level is rare in Chinese films, and it can reach the level of Hollywood. " He believes that Wolf Warriors 2 also absorbs the characteristics of genre films. "one person deals with an unjust order, which is the core of genre films, such as the first drop of Blood and the James Bond series. When is the most heroic? When a person wins in the face of an irresistible force, this is a hero. But behind the film is a typical Chinese value, in which there are many national symbols and national images, including the national emblem, the national flag, the final passport and so on. This is not only a Chinese transformation of the Hollywood type, but also its innovation and breakthrough. "

however, Yin Hong frankly said that Wolf Warriors 2 also has its limitations, such as lack of humanitarian spirit, lack of caution and restraint in the description of death, excessive rendering, and even at the expense of all kinds of dead people in order to highlight heroes. "this is a disrespect for life. If this problem is not solved, Chinese films will not be able to go out." He said that the core of "Chinese Dream" is to let everyone's life be respected, so that Chinese films can really go out to the world.
