That was because this was not a small artistic film that was flaunted as art.
Of course, no matter how artistic the films were, such as "Lost Smile" or "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind", Qin Guan's films, they were all very artistic.
No matter how different the movies were, the public could still understand them. It was just a matter of whether they liked it or not.
However, a movie that was shrouded in fog and made the audience confused was against the standards of commercial films.
This was irresponsible to the investors and deceiving the audience who had paid to watch the show.
In the eyes of some directors, commercial films weren't considered high-end because they were meant to entertain the public.
Nowadays, the pressure in people's lives is getting greater and greater, and the pace of work is also getting faster and faster.
Living a fast-food lifestyle, wanting to release pressure, and using the method of watching a movie to win a laugh, or a hearty cry, was the reason why the audience chose commercial movies.
But the current Limitless was in this strange state.
It was the ordinary audience that was cursing out loud. They felt that they had been cheated out of the money for their bowls of ramen.
As for the more advanced film critics, they were waiting for the other party's review to prevent others from finding out that they didn't understand the film either.
Amidst the strange silence of the critics and the cursing of the audience, Chen Hong successfully attracted everyone's attention.
Because she perfectly used the current situation of a country with a low level of education and the current level, it would take five years for everyone to understand the movie.
This conclusion caused an uproar.
A number of people rose in revolt.
After the crew of "The Promise" uncovered all sorts of scandals, a warrior named Hu Ge made the earliest short film that ridiculed the entertainment industry.
A Tragedy Caused by a Steamed Bun
Once this 19-minute video clip was uploaded, it quickly became popular all over the country.
"Look, it's very interesting!"
Cong Nianwei clicked on the link and let him watch the video again.
At the beginning, Hu Ge cleverly wrote a few words at the beginning of the film that were purely from his personal opinion.
However, it was because his editing skills were on point, the teasing style was novel, and the pace of the video was lively. Coupled with the hot news, it made the viewers feel very immersed.
On top of that, after the video was edited, there were many hilarious points. Anyone who saw it couldn't help but laugh out loud.
The hottest gossip was not about his adventure in Thailand, but the "Tragedy Caused by a Steamed Bun", which occupied the headlines of all the entertainment media.
Once the video was released, Hu Ge and "The Everlasting" were enraged.
This was the first director who had been provoked by the netizens. He was the leader of the five generations of directors who had produced many masterpieces.
The person who was the most furious was Mrs. Chen, who felt that the world did not understand her husband.
Therefore, the predecessor of the jokes and funny videos that would be everywhere on the Internet was handed to Hu Ge in the form of an official complaint.
Apologize, he had to apologize in front of the public. Hu Ge had violated Wuji's film rights!
Well, for crazy people, most people usually ignored them.
But what if this matter was brought to court?
Was the reason for the direct notice, or was it related to copyright infringement?
This caused another uproar.
Those Ms. Chen, who had accumulated a good image over the years, was once the most beautiful Princess Taiping in Daming Palace Poetry.
In the end, she had fallen in the hearts of countless ordinary people.
Maybe it was because Qin Guan had hurt the crew of "The Everlasting" too much, but it had made them understand the power of the law.
Therefore, this matter, which seemed like a trivial matter to the audience, was blown out of proportion.
Qin Guan was amused by the video, but when he saw the messy news, he could only sigh.
That year, under the leadership of the two directors, the so-called Chinese blockbuster films had finally embarked on a wrong path.
Although after many adjustments, the Chinese filmmakers gradually changed their big-budget film publicity plans.
However, ever since they had taken the lead, domestic directors had been competing with each other like an arms race.
Each film was bigger than the previous one, and each had more actors than the previous one. However, the plot was worse than the previous one.
Thanks to the wealth of Chinese people, Chinese filmmakers were becoming more and more aware of the authenticity of their films. That was why Chinese filmmakers were able to survive.
To put it bluntly...
Lots of people.
Lots of money. Please come as soon as possible.
However, the audience's tolerance was not as high as it had been in 2016. The 2006 film "The Everlasting" had been a flop.
The box office had been so bad that it hadn't even made a profit of 30 million, let alone 300 million.
This movie had really brought Chen Kai back to the old days, and everyone's impression of Director Chen had also started to doubt that he could not keep up with the times.
The director's world was so cruel. One wrong step would require several or even more films to recover from it.
Therefore, the flop "The Promise" brought Director Zhang Yimou extremely good news.
Cong Nianwei, who was lying on his chest like a bean bun, asked, "What's wrong?"
"When will your film be released?"
"In November."
"What? Isn't Jiang Wen's movie the first to be shot? Why hasn't it been released yet? "
"It's a political review."
If an indie film wanted to be released in China and participate in foreign film festivals, it would have to be reviewed.
First of all, it would have to be reviewed.
Only movies approved by the SARFT could appear in front of the public in a fair and aboveboard manner. It would not be like the underground movies, where people would only hear of it but not see it.
Therefore, Director Jiang Wen followed the procedures and avoided the winter and Spring Festival slots, which were the favorite of Hollywood blockbusters and domestic blockbusters.
He was not in a hurry. As long as the film could get a place at the Venice Film Festival next year, the whole team would benefit.
Therefore, this time slot was prepared for those commercial films that made money.
He kissed Cong Nianwei, who was about to fall asleep. Then he turned her head and whispered the most tender words in the world.
"Sleep well. Sweet dreams."
Indeed, now that he was back in his own territory, he could naturally sleep peacefully.
After the chaos, Qin Guan couldn't have a moment of leisure after returning to the country.
In 2006, premieres were becoming more and more popular. This was the first time he had been invited to a film premiere.
Qin Guan had never participated in such a formal opening ceremony, no matter what role he had played in the past.
