"Destiny" tells four stories, which are based on Hu Wenhai's murder of village officials, Zhou Kehua's cross-provincial robbery case, Deng Yujiao's assassination case, and Foxconn's fourteen consecutive jumps...

Before watching the movie, Xu Hui was ready to face a bunch of long shots in Jia Zhangke's movies, and all the movies were fucked with long shots!

After watching for a few minutes, Xu Hui felt a little uncomfortable all over!

Lao Jia is too cruel this time!

Too straightforward!

The above cases were recorded in an almost plain way, and the violence was clearly visible!

Unrestrained power, imbalance in distribution of wealth, indifference between people, distorted single values...

All ordinary people exposed to it become prisoners who are inextricably doomed: either die in their own despair or destroy after the pleasure of killing.

Lao Jia played a lot this time, and the title of "Destiny in Heaven" revealed that the suffering at the bottom had arrived from the moment of birth.

This is also the proposition that Lao Jia's movies have always discussed, how to regain the dignity of individuals in a rapidly developing society

By the way, we are very glad to have a look at the style of Dongguan in "Destiny", a one-minute long shot: the lady is in love with the spring of the pink army, the care of the chief...

Xu Hui certainly doesn't like such movies because their description of this society is too naked, but he admits that this is a good movie, recording people of this era. Lao Jia did what a film director should do. Even though it was a bloody murder story, it happened. From beginning to end, we were all spectators. When the news happened, we were onlookers, and when the movie was shot, we were performing actors.

Perhaps when the filming of such a movie started, Lao Jia should have clearly known that it was released in China in a slim manner, or that this work was originally aimed at foreign awards, and such subjects also had natural advantages in winning awards in the West.

Unfortunately, the chairman of the Cannes jury this year is Spielberg, and he doesn’t like this type of work!

What kind of director is Spielberg?

rich?

This is for sure, the big ip of "Jurassic" brought him more than $500 million in revenue!

Although he is not as good friend George Lucas as his good friend in making money, he still surpasses his good friend in terms of subject matters involved.

Looking at Spielberg's works, except for war films, most of them have a theme: Virginity!

"The Third Category of Contact", "Alien et", "War Horse", "Dream-Realizing Giant"...

Too cruel story, he doesn't like it!

Today's Hollywood-style story structure was founded by a group of directors led by Spielberg, so it is understandable that he doesn't like "Destiny".

A story like "Cinema Paradise" is very consistent with his wishes...

...

Directors like Jia Zhangke, or the overall sixth generation, are all people who have gone from the background of the big era, and their perspectives and concerns are different from those of normal people.

Most directors are concerned about how to cater to the public's tastes, but they are all focused on their interests.

Many people say nothing, they should not ignore those who are hit because the entire country is running and moving forward.

But shouldn’t the public be concerned about more attention?

What many of his supporters say: The directors who can't take off their social pants are not profound directors...

Yes, a director who can strip social pants is worthy of admiration, but a director who always wants to strip social pants is a hooligan.

Besides, he also wanted to show the things covered in his pants to outsiders!

The biggest question is who is willing to raise hooligans. Even if you need to pay attention to the lives of marginalized people, you cannot blindly emphasize that there are only marginalized people in this society!

These are not the only subjects in our lives!

In fact, after "The Good People in Three Gorges", Lao Jia also tried to get closer to the mainstream, but his consciousness or inertial thinking did not allow him to really do this.

You can make money by making commercial films, but you can also make money by making art films!

Lao Jia is not short of money!

Many of us think that art film directors are paupers, but this is actually an illusion.

The copyright sold to European and American TV stations is enough for them to have a meal.

Lao Jia has another advertising company. He can advertise to communication companies, cosmetics, e-commerce, and real estate developers and can basically take photos of whatever he wants.

That's why he had the confidence to say, "You can't bear it anymore, you don't need to endure it anymore, go back to the ground!"

"Destiny" has a good theme performance, but the movie itself is not a good fit!

Director Jia has always divided the movie into several large sections. After filming, it was simply spliced ​​and released. The main storyline, the plot connection, not to mention the front and back echoes, all of which were cool. It made the whole movie look like a collection of micro-films. Each part can be considered a fine product after taking it out. The whole set of combinations is directly confusing...

So, it’s understandable that I failed to win the award!

The difference in position and vision determines that although Xu Hui can watch most movies calmly, he still has many feelings in his heart.

When he was a director, he was considering the audience's reputation and box office. After all, he was not the kind of director who just took the money and finished it. Film directors were responsible to investors. This was the most basic professional ethics.

Now, he is not only a director, but also the boss of a film company. What he is considering is the pattern of domestic films.

The so-called independent film is the product of independent of the entire film industry system.

Any country has independent films, and we should also appropriately support independent films, but the most important energy should be focused on commercial films that occupy the mainstream of the masses!

...

The movie ended and the whole screening room was a bit dull.

Most of the audience rushed out, but many foreign media gathered around Jia Zhangke, wanting to ask something...

A very surprising scene was surrounded by a large number of media, and few mainland media were involved.

They also know that reports like "Destiny" are unlikely to be followed by anyone...

"I think China's reform has brought many problems, the most important of which is wealth inequality. Many officials and rich people have too many resources..."

Xu Hui glanced at Lao Jia who was talking to the Western media and suddenly felt that he was quite lucky.

At least, I never thought about exposing or criticizing anything.

It was like Grandpa Mao said, "Lu Xun, either he was locked in prison and continued to write about him, or he didn't say a word...'

In today's era, no one needs to act as a great man and teach us what to do!

We have our own thoughts!

Xu Hui is not a special person, and in comparison, he is more willing to be a commercial director.

A director like Lao Jia, who waits for him either continues to be sharp and then abandoned by the public or turns to mediocrity...

Sighing, Xu Hui and Ye Ning walked out of the screening hall.

"Hello,... Director Xu Hui, I am your fan, can I take a photo?"
Chapter completed!
