When Nanaya returned to the stage, there was obvious unrest among the audience.
Everyone knows that the next part is a live question and answer session.
Therefore, everyone was eager for Nanaya to answer their questions.
The entire live Q&A session was divided into two parts: first, questions from Chinese filmmakers, and then questions from students.
This ensures that both sides are taken care of.
In fact, the organizers did not propose a session for students to ask questions at the beginning, but they finally added this part at Nanaya's request.
After all, he had come to the Beijing Film Academy, and if he didn't interact with the students here, Nanaya would always feel like something was missing.
In fact, compared to questions from students, Nanaya didn't care much about questions from filmmakers.
Nanaya originally thought that they were just discussing some issues regarding film production.
But it is obvious that these filmmakers who call themselves artists are more capable than Nanaya imagined.
The first person to ask Nanaya questions was a white-haired old man.
His question was direct.
"You said you were interested in Chinese culture. Have you ever watched Chinese movies?"
Nanaya pursed his lips.
Although the question itself was nothing serious, he didn't like the questioning tone in the other party's words.
However, Nanaya still answered calmly: "I have seen quite a few, but the ones that impressed me the most were Cheng-style action comedies and Zhou-style nonsensical comedies..."
The old man interrupted Nanaya's answer directly: "They are all Hong Kong movies...Have you seen our movies?"
"'Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons' and 'Nezha Conquers the Dragon King'."
"Those are all cartoons!"
The other party waved his hand and said bluntly.
[Did you know that I have watched The Wandering Earth? ! ]
Nanaya believed that this guy was here to cause trouble.
To be honest, he had seen movies from this period in China, and he had even seen quite a few in the last century.
But the problem is, Nanaya doesn't really want to discuss these movies.
Because the content of these more famous movies is too sensitive, many of them discuss social issues in China.
Nanaya believed that if he said the names of these movies, the other party would definitely ask particularly sensitive questions.
The host's eyebrows also frowned, and he also noticed Nanaya's embarrassment.
Being good at observing people's expressions, he even guessed the reason for Nanaya's dilemma.
Just when he was about to rescue himself and let this question go, Nanaya took the initiative to answer the other party.
"I was deeply impressed by Director Feng's "Big Shot."
"Oh, why?"
Without waiting for the old man to interrupt, the host took the initiative to take over the topic.
"Because I think this is a prophetic work." Nanaya shook his shoulders and made a helpless expression, "Because I believe that there will definitely be a day when the price of a house in the Beijing will exceed $4,000."
At this point Nanaya raised a finger to everyone and said, "I'll tell you a way to get rich. Hurry up and use your savings to buy a house in the capital."
"Not only does it make money faster than robbery, but it's also safe and risk-free."
The auditorium erupted in good-natured laughter, and everyone thought Nanaya was very funny.
"I think Lao Feng will be very happy." A director in the audience said with a smile, "Kiryu Nanaya actually likes his movie. It's enough for him to brag about it for a while."
"I don't think so."
Another shook his head. "You know him, he's a man with a lot of mouth and he's very self-centered. If someone compares him to other directors, who knows what they'll say about him."
The director who was speaking thought about it and found that it was true.
With that big shot's personality, he wouldn't even take Cameron seriously, let alone Kiryu Nanaya.
"Haha, Nanaya's answer is so funny." Qin Jue chuckled, "It's a pity that he doesn't know that house prices may fall this year."
Qin Jue's opinion almost represented the majority of people present, and no one took Nanaya's words seriously.
Although the housing prices in the capital have been rising, the figure of US$4,000 per square meter is too exaggerated.
You have to know that according to the exchange rate, 4,000 US dollars is nearly 30,000 RMB.
Nowadays, the price of houses in the capital, except for those in particularly good locations, is basically below 20,000 yuan.
As a result, everyone is currently predicting that housing prices in the capital will plummet in the next 10 years.
Because everyone feels that the current housing price bubble is already very large.
Nanaya was very calm about the reactions of everyone at the scene.
Anyway, everyone here will know the result by the end of the year.
Because everyone was bearish in 2010;
2010, when they thought house prices would fall;
In 2010, it was thought that real estate speculators would jump off buildings one after another.
In fact, it was the beginning of a surge in housing prices.
Although there may be occasional fluctuations in the past few months due to policy adjustments, the overall trend remains unchanged.
I won't say anything else.
Anyway, now everyone thinks that a house at $4,000 per square meter is too expensive.
But in fact, two years later, it was almost impossible to find a house in the entire metropolitan area that cost $4,000 per square meter.
By the time Nanaya was reborn, the price in Beijing area was 4,000 US dollars, which was 10,000 US dollars per square meter. I guess countless people were scrambling to get it.
Nanaya said that this was what his [invincible intuition] told him, and it definitely couldn't be wrong.
The host thought Nanaya's answer was very humorous, and he quickly took the opportunity to change the questioner.
"Okay, that's all about the house. Who else wants to ask Director Kiryu a question? Director Zhang, is that you?"
Nanaya saw a very familiar man standing up with a microphone.
Nanaya had seen that other person's face countless times on TV in his previous life.
"Director Kiryu, what do you think is the biggest gap between Chinese films and Hollywood films?"
When the other party asked this question, Nanaya was stunned.
Because he didn't expect Director Zhang to ask this question, Nanaya thought the other party would ask him how to strive for an Oscar.
After all, he is determined to defeat Master Zhang.
And this question is actually very broad.
After all, the Hollywood film market is already very mature, but the Chinese film market has only just started not long ago.
The gap between the two is certainly multifaceted.
Apart from anything else, the movie-watching habits of the Chinese audience alone cannot be cultivated in just one or two years.
To be honest, Nanaya has always felt that Chinese filmmakers really need to thank Hollywood.
Because many of the Chinese audience's movie-watching habits have been developed little by little through these special effects blockbusters.
These audiences who already have the habit of watching movies have a strong sense of identification with domestic films in their hearts.
Therefore, as long as a high-quality domestic film is released, it can always create box office miracles.
This is not just true for movies, it also applies to anime and games.
Perhaps China's entertainment workers should be the happiest people in the world.
Because as long as they are willing to work hard and polish their work.
Then the market will definitely reward it.
But the direct answer is that everything will be fine, or that the Chinese market will slowly catch up with Hollywood or something like that.
Nanaya couldn't even bring himself to give such a perfunctory answer.
Moreover, Nanaya believed that when the National Master asked this question, he actually had his own expected answer.
It's nothing more than the gap between the actors and directors, lack of technical skills, or the audience this time, as well as censorship issues.
But Nanaya was not going to follow his idea.
Not to mention that this answer is already a rehash of the past, it is not appropriate for Nanaya, as a guest, to say something that overly disparages the host.
Moreover, Nanaya really hopes that his answer can do something to help Chinese films.
Maybe these filmmakers who are already in the industry cannot change anything, but there are still so many students here.
So, Nanaya coughed lightly and answered.
"It's the industrial base!"
This answer obviously exceeded everyone's expectations, and there was even a cry of surprise from the audience.
Master Zhang was completely stunned. He never expected this answer.
Although it sounds like a technical gap, you can still feel the difference if you taste it carefully.
The host was also very curious, and he quickly asked, "Isn't it somewhere else?"
[Of course, but those things are hard to say. ]
The actors and directors are too offensive.
The vast majority of students present were their own audience.
Saying that they are incompetent is like slapping yourself in the face, isn't it?
As for the review...
Nanaya doesn't want his movies to never be allowed to enter China.
Nanaya didn't want to go too far, so he quickly added: "In fact, it's not just the Chinese film industry, it's the same in all film industries, including Japan."
"Many people say that Hollywood is powerful because of its abundant capital. But in my opinion, the biggest difference between Hollywood and other countries' film industries is not the capital, directors, actors or scripts, but the maturity of the entire film industry."
"Is Director Kiryu trying to talk about movie special effects technology?"
The host asked.
Nanaya shook his head slightly: "There is a part, but it is not the core. I am talking about the entire production system."
"Can you tell me more about this?"
The national teacher frowned and asked, he was a little surprised that the other party did not play according to the routine.
Originally, he was prepared to argue with Kiryu Nanaya when she gave other answers, to protect the reputation of Chinese filmmakers.
But the other party's answer made him not know how to refute.
Although everyone has been talking about how awesome Hollywood's film industry is, no one has ever thought about the gap in their own industrial system.
Nanaya thought for a moment and replied, "I have made movies in Japan and have also communicated with filmmakers from other countries in Hollywood. I found that the film industry outside of Hollywood is always very superstitious about the role of directors and actors. They don't pay much attention to costumes and props."
"Shouldn't it be so?"
"No." Nanaya shook his head. "There is a famous saying in Hollywood: No one is irreplaceable, including actors and directors."
Nanaya calmly said words that shocked everyone.
The director's concepts are outdated and can be slowly changed;
If the actors are not strong enough, we can continue to dig deeper;
If the audience has no desire to watch the movie, it can be cultivated slowly.
But none of these are as important as the industrial system, because this is the cornerstone of the entire film industry.
