Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 619: Full Fire Duo

Six Princesses, studio of "Light and Shadow Star Podcast".

Familiar place, familiar program, familiar production team, familiar host.

But Zhou Hao was very clear that this interview was completely different from the last one.

After confirming that the preparations were correct, the program recording officially began as the countdown on site reached zero.

"...The National Day holiday has just ended. I think everyone should have gained something during this holiday. Maybe you saw new weapons at the military parade? Maybe you finally got a break after working for more than half a year? Maybe you finally got to visit the scenic spots you've always dreamed of during the holiday..."

"In our cinema chains during the National Day holiday, a fierce box office battle is still going on. This year's National Day box office battle is indeed a little different from previous years. In addition to the main theme becoming the protagonist, there is also a strong dark horse that has become the most eye-catching scenery of this year's National Day holiday..."

"I think everyone has guessed that this dark horse is the currently very strong box office momentum of "Inheritance"... and in this film, the third unit "Poetry" is undoubtedly the most popular."

"Today, we have also invited the two core creators of this film... Come, say hello to everyone."

The camera first turned to Su Man. Miss Su, who had dressed up carefully, was bright and charming, yet graceful. "Hello everyone, I am Su Man, and I play Yu Kaiying in "Poetry."

Then the camera turned to Zhou Hao, "Hello everyone, I am Zhou Hao, responsible for the editing and directing of the short film "Poetry", and I also made a cameo appearance as Shi Ruhong."

The female host was visibly stunned. "Your statement is not very common. Why don't you just call yourself a director?"

"It's all the same." Zhou Hao said calmly: "Whether it's the screenwriter, director or the staff running errands on the set, everyone is a staff member of the same crew, just responsible for different projects."

The female host's eyes lit up. This guy is great. He has improved a lot since the last time he came!

We have all learned to actively create topics!

But now is not the time to start, the female host asked, "The box office performance of 'Inheritance' is very strong right now, and 'Poetry' is recognized as the highest quality unit. I would like to ask you two, did you expect the current results?"

"Since I've accepted this task, I'm of course confident that I can do it well." Zhou Hao replied, "But all I can do is try to ensure the film's bottom line... that is, it won't be criticized when it's released. As for the upper limit of word-of-mouth and box office performance, that's not something I can decide."

The female host nodded, and then suddenly said: "But if you want, you can actually intervene in the box office and word of mouth."

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Hao felt a chill on his back.

The digging started again, and it was a big hole!

Obviously, this is an allusion to the dirty tricks of some "big directors" who manipulate votes and reviews. Most people in the circle are well aware of this, but not everyone has the courage to say it publicly.

The Sixth Princess dared to ask because she was the Sixth Princess, but others might not dare to answer.

In the past, Zhou Hao would probably have to practice Tai Chi, but this time he knew he couldn't hide. How could he hand in a blank paper in the exam?

"In theory, it's possible, but I don't think it makes sense." Zhou Hao replied.

"Why?" the female host continued to ask. "Because I have been lying to myself for too long, I have really fooled myself." Zhou Hao laughed and said, "Living in a cocoon of false data and public opinion all day long, not daring to face the real public opinion and not daring to experience real life, over time, I will inevitably lose touch with the ground."

"If a cultural and entertainment worker reaches this point, his creative life can basically be declared dead, because his subsequent creations will inevitably be out of touch with the masses and become hypocritical whining without illness."

"The great man once said that literary and artistic work must also come from the masses and go to the masses. A literary and artistic worker who is divorced from the masses, he"

The female host nodded repeatedly with approval, "Very good! That's exactly the energy I want!"

To enter this door, you must cut off all the messy industry filth, and be cautious and cautious... Fence-sitters are not welcome here!

"But I've always heard a saying - many viewers don't actually know what they like to watch. A good director must have the ability to guide the audience's aesthetic taste and use his works to tell everyone what is good."

Still digging, still digging!
Zhou Hao hesitated for just a second, then decided to go for it. "I personally don't agree with this statement."

The host then looked to the other side, "Where's Su Man?"

"If you ask me, I'll just say two words." Su Man said directly: "Bullshit!"

Upon hearing this, the host and the on-site director almost couldn't hold back their excitement.

This is too casual!

Su Man seemed to have seen everything, and she immediately opened fire: "Those who can say such things are nothing more than those who think they are superior because they have learned some directing skills and made a few movies. They think they are superior to others and can look down on the common people. Isn't this a disease?"

"The key is that if they really have the ability, it would be fine. But after all the bragging, what they are selling is the same crap they learned from the West. No matter what the subject matter is, they stick it to personal heroism. If the box office is good, it means that my movie is well made and people like it. If the box office is not good, it means that the audience is ignorant and has poor taste and can't eat fine bran. Isn't this a disease?"

Zhou Hao, who was standing by, was stunned. This elder sister was so powerful that she was completely a substitute for him.

"Zhou Hao, do you agree with Su Man's statement?" The host began to change the subject.

"Of course." Zhou Hao couldn't backstab his teammates since they were so good. "Just like the example she mentioned earlier, many of our directors like to follow the underlying logic of Western film creation as the standard. Once the market performance is not good, they blame the audience for poor taste, or come up with all kinds of conspiracy theories. Anyway, they try every means to give themselves a 'not guilty' memorial archway."

"But in fact, they are all intentionally or unintentionally avoiding a problem, that is, many of the underlying logics between China and the West are different. When it comes to cultural creation, if you copy and paste, it will naturally not work."

The female host smiled and said, "Can you give me a more specific example?"

"It's very simple. When faced with a world-destroying natural disaster, the West's idea is to build a Noah's Ark to preserve the elites and then abandon everything and run away. But what about us Chinese? Dayu controlled the floods, and with the will of man conquering nature, he governed and protected the land under our feet!"

"When the end of the world is imminent, the faith of the West is to wait for the emergence of superheroes, such as Superman and Iron Man... Anyway, the kind that can save the world single-handedly, but do such gods and superheroes really exist?"

"On the other hand, what about us? Facing the end of the world with the destruction of the nation and the extinction of the race, no one expects some god or superman to come down to save the world. Instead, they want to become heroes and supermen, and save the world with the power of unity. The power of the people is the foundation of our China!"

"There are two completely different underlying logics here, and you apply the Western logic to them, but in the end you blame our audience for being too ignorant and uncivilized. Do you have any shame?"
