Chapter 422 Discussion of Human Nature

“It is indeed a good film. I heard that someone at the premiere shouted that zombie movies are no longer exclusive to the West. I think this is right. As soon as "Travel to Taipei" came out, Zombie movies are indeed no longer exclusive to the West!”

“I have to admit that Director Wang is really good. “Travel to Taipei” does not fall into the clichés of Western zombie movies, but takes a different approach and presents a story that touches people’s hearts. A zombie movie. "

"Personally, I think Director Wang can do this mainly because he is an art film director, which is very different from European and American commercial film directors."

“The films made by commercial film directors in Europe and the United States all pursue popcorn-style rhythm and excitement.”

"As for Director Wang, since he is an art film director, he often adds some in-depth things to commercial films."

"For example, in "Taipei Trip", there is a discussion of human nature." 
“If any other art-house director were to make a commercial film and add private goods, the film would be a failure nine times out of ten.”

“Director Wang is different. He has proven time and time again that he can combine commercial films with artistry. Combined. "

"For example, "Taipei Trip" once again proves that this is the case."

"Also, rather than saying "Travel to Taipei" is a zombie movie, it is better to say "Travel to Taipei" is a disaster movie."

"However, zombie movies are inherently a type of disaster movie." 
“So, I personally feel that it is more appropriate to call “Travel to Taipei” a zombie disaster movie.”

Under this film critic’s blog post, there are many replies, most of which are Expressing my views after watching "Travel to Taipei".

"When "Travel to Taipei" was being prepared, many people were pessimistic, saying that it was impossible for a director in our country to make a zombie movie well, and even if it were made, it would be nondescript."

"In short, the meaning is that zombie movies are a Western patent, and only Western directors have the ability to make this type of movie well."

"To be honest, I felt the same way at the time."

“Zombie movies have never been made in our country, and there is no corresponding soil.”

“In our mainland, many well-known directors such as Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Chen Kaige, Jiang Wen, and Gu Changwei have never said I want to get involved in this type of movies.”

“These all show that zombie movies have no place in our country.”

"Not only does no one dare to shoot it, but also no one can shoot it."

"Under such circumstances, I don't think Wang Shu can really make a zombie movie well."

"I have long been prepared to encourage Wang Shu even if it is a bad movie."

"After all, compared to other directors, Wang Shu dares to risk the consequences of ruining his reputation and resolutely create a precedent for our mainland films. . ”

“Just the spirit of daring to pioneer the track is worthy of praise. ”

"Who would have known that Wang Shu not only made a zombie movie, but also made it so well!"

"The whole movie did not fall into the clichés of Western zombie movies. It took a different approach and made everyone's eyes shine. "

" Audiences who have never seen zombie movies may not think anything of it, but what I want to say is that viewers who have seen zombie movies will definitely be impressed. "

"I can only say, Wang. The director is Director Wang after all.”

“The well-known directors in China are indeed higher than him in terms of qualifications, but in terms of talent, only Zhou Xingxing from Hong Kong can compare with him.”

"I remember back in those days, when Director Wang was just emerging, the whole Internet laughed at him and called him an 18-year-old young director. It was all a sign of disdain and disdain." , has already won the Best Director at the Venice Film Festival, and went to Hollywood to make a movie with a global value of 500 million US dollars. "

"If you look at the whole country, there is no one in the country except Wang Shu. A famous director has done it.”

“Not even Li Yu from Baodao has done it.”

In addition to this famous film critic, there are other well-known film critics. Post a blog post.

Zhou Liming published a blog post after watching "Travel to Taipei": "After watching "Travel to Taipei", I have to say that it is a masterpiece."

"And this movie can truly be regarded as a masterpiece. The reason for this is not borrowing from other sources, but the core of the film's own insight into human nature. "

"The horror of human nature in "Travel to Taipei" is far more terrifying than the horror caused by zombies. , the extremely excellent character creation makes the movie, although the characters are divided into primary and secondary characters, it can be said to be a real group show. Whether it is a selfish senior executive or an old aunt with only a few shots, every image is captured. It was carefully carved into the micro -carving. The contrast between good and evil here only made the evil energy of the movie grit the teeth, and the good can also be dazzling. With the death of the male lead in the movie, the significance of the film is far from far away. It goes beyond the similar category of Hollywood American heroes."

"Emotionally speaking, "Travel to Taipei" is extremely rich. It not only has a main storyline built on the family relationship between father and daughter, but also has a youthful atmosphere. The love of students, the beautiful love of adult couples, the deep affection between sisters, and even the "bad guy" of the movie, the extremely selfish senior executive, in the end arranged an emotional clue for him who longed to go home and see his mother. , it is these just right sensations that make the film not as long as other zombie films, but it has human thoughts that can stand side by side with them."

"Although it does not have a high production budget, it does so in a personal way. It seems that no other movie with the same theme can be as touching as it is. In my personal opinion, this is enough to cover up many logical flaws in the movie. After all, compared to the rigorous conception, it has delivered a piece of work with emotions throughout. A nearly perfect answer ("Travel to Taipei" claims an investment of 300 million, but in fact, as far as I know, the investment cost is only 200 million, and the investment cost of 200 million is really cheap compared to European and American zombie movies, so in comparison, " The production cost of "Taipei Trip" is not high)"

""Travel to Taipei" is like a bowl of tea, and the zombie theme is like the tea leaves in the bowl." "When you taste it carefully, the mellow and long-lasting passion really gives people a new understanding of Chinese movies."

“Some people at the scene shouted that zombie movies are no longer a Western patent. This is not unfounded.”

After this blog post, there were also many replies .

“I also watched "Travel to Taipei". This film directed by Wang is really a business conscience and reveals human nature from many angles."

"Although it is a zombie movie, it tells the story of 'what is more terrifying than zombies is human nature, and what is more terrifying than human nature is human heart'.

"Indeed, at the end of the world, we will all be selfish. However, I believe that being selfish is because you have something to protect. "

"You can avoid the zombies in three carriages, but you can't open the hearts of people in one carriage. We remain kind because we still believe in goodness. "

" Director Wang was able to win the Best Director Award at the Venice Film Festival at a young age, and he made a US$500 million movie when he first arrived in Hollywood, and two of his films were nominated for the Golden Globe Award. "

"These all prove that Director Wang is really capable, and it is not just a matter of boasting. ”

"To be honest, I've seen "The Tuner" but I'm not looking forward to it."

"The only thing I'm looking forward to right now is the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street". I really want to see the real thing."

“However, this film has not been introduced into China, which is a pity.”

“The Wolf of Wall Street” will definitely not be introduced into China, because this film exposes the darkness of the financial industry.

In the Mainland, the banker of Big A is Tianjia.

Big A is just a way for the above to make money, and it is not a place for ordinary people to follow and make money.

Here, ordinary people can lose money through financial means, but cannot make money through financial means.

Otherwise, you will be investigated.

The nature of "The Wolf of Wall Street" has a great probability of affecting ordinary people's motivation to send money into it and affect how to make money.

Therefore, "The Wolf of Wall Street" will definitely not be introduced.

It can be said that if it were not for the financial crisis at this moment, Wang Shu would not have touched Big A at all.

Big A is different from US stocks.

Under normal circumstances, a large amount of money is sent to Big A, and Big A will use the secret of the dragon that is impossible to appear in the free market, so that the large amount of money remains, and the only way to escape is to cut off the tail.

Relatively speaking, the U.S. stock market is a free market, and there will be no such esoteric techniques. Profit and loss depends on personal ability.

The premiere event of going to the theater to meet the audience ended successfully. Since it was already very late, Wang Shu and others went back to their homes.

At this moment, Shu Chang and Liu Yifei were chatting on their mobile phones.

"Sissi, director Wang's "Travel to Taipei" is very good. Some people at the scene even shouted after watching it that zombie movies are no longer exclusive to the West!" Shu Chang said loudly.

"Zombie movies are no longer exclusive to the West?" Liu Yifei was surprised. She has lived in the United States for a long time and is well aware of the zombie culture in Europe and the United States.

Now, with the release of "Travel to Taipei", zombie movies are no longer exclusive to the West. Is this too much?

Her first reaction was that this sentence was a hype and had no truth to it.

After all, zombie culture has long been established in Europe and the United States. Now in China, only Wang Shu has made a movie "Taipei Trip", and it is being touted as zombie movies are no longer exclusive to the West

It's too bullshit.

"Yes, one person at the scene exclaimed like this, and then many people said the same thing." Shu Chang responded.

"What about you? Do you think so too?" Liu Yifei asked immediately, thinking that Wang Shu had made a movie with a global value of 500 million US dollars in Hollywood, and that both movies were nominated for the Golden Globe Award.

"Of course." Shu Chang replied noncommittally, "The quality of "Travel to Taipei" is really high. Although I haven't watched many European and American zombie movies, I think that sentence is correct."

"With Director Wang's "Travel to Taipei", zombie movies should really not be exclusive to the West."

Hearing Shu Chang's confident tone, Liu Yifei's head became a little confused.

She has lived in the United States for a long time, has watched some European and American zombie movies, and has a certain understanding of zombie movies in her mind.

Therefore, she couldn’t understand, with Zhuyu in the forefront of European and American zombie movies, how amazing should Wang Shu make “Travel to Taipei” to be worthy of this sentence?

Or is it just because there are no zombie movies in China and many people are seeing zombie movies for the first time, so they brag like this regardless of whether they are excellent or not?
