Why do you want to rest? Is it because I find that I have decreased sensitivity to my works? Because we know that as a director, you must be sensitive!
...You are talking about the director of an art film. I can shoot it with a subject like this! And the audience will also like it very much!
In fact, the so-called literary films, independent films are the self-expression of the creator.
They want to express their views on social changes or something through a work. Such people must remain sensitive, otherwise no one will discuss his works!
As a commercial film director, Xu Hui has been able to skillfully use his skills to make the audience like his works.
Although it's a bit bragging...
In fact, I still feel sleepy and can’t find the passion I used to make the first movie...
Xu Hui yawned, shook his head, and then said: In the past, I liked that some viewers said that my movie had a high box office. I think that would mean that my movie was good, but now, I might consider more...
Think more about the responsibility of filmmakers?
...No, I think I will never be able to make any work with great influence in my life. The first thing I want is always the audience's needs. When my personal expression conflicts with the audience's psychology, I will always stand on the side of the audience. This feeling is particularly strong when I filmed "New Longmen Inn"!
How to say it?
That is a 3D martial arts movie. I am a movie and I know very well that 3D and fast editing are opposites. My martial arts style is fast editing and sharp movements. If these are presented through 3D, they will be very awkward in visual form. However, when the audience thought 3D was a good thing at that time, I could only cater to the audience's ideas and made a 3D martial arts movie, and the final effect...
The effect is pretty good, I watched it in the cinema!
...There is a lot worse, at least it is more than a little different from my original plan. We have expanded the literary opera part, added a lot of inexplicable long shots, and reduced too many fighting scenes!
Xu Hui waved his hand and continued: Since then, I have said that I will never shoot 3D martial arts in the future. Then I feel that I am a bit too pretentious, so I simply stopped working for a year. I feel that I need to adjust my mentality!
So how did you think of filming "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer"?
After all, it’s Jin Yong’s martial arts, and there are still some plots... Actually, I want to film "The Legend of Condor Heroes" the most, but unfortunately, I didn’t get the adaptation rights. Of course, "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" is also good!
I watched the trailer, are you playing Linghu Chong?
...To be honest, the main reason why we subvert the original work is too big. To put it bluntly, it is almost another story. I play the male lead, and I also want everyone to give some face when scolding, so don't scold it so harshly...
So, is it a big subversion? Do you think some viewers won’t approve of it?
I can't say this, I have to look at the audience's own thoughts, I smoke a cigarette...
It was so sleepy that Xu Hui felt that he needed a cigarette to relieve it a little...
Anyway, it's a magazine interview, and there is no camera, so you can do whatever you want
I've been so tired these days, and since I came back from Cannes, I've been busy...
Speaking of Cannes, you are disappointed that "Cinema Paradise" did not get the Palme d'Or.
I was really disappointed because that story is a semi-autobiographical work about directors and movies. Well, it is a pure movie I want to make, so I just want to make a work for myself...
Didn’t you just say that you will never abandon the audience?
So, that's a foreign language film. I think so. My movie audience should first be mainland audiences, and secondly, consider foreign audiences. The entire story structure of "Paradise Cinema" is Western... Have you gone to Cannes?
...No, but I heard a lot of feedback from my colleagues, who said that "Cinema Paradise" has set off a movie viewing craze in Cannes, and it is hard to get a ticket!
Yes, the attendance rate was all over the 6 screenings, and it can be predicted that the box office is not bad!
So, you still have the box office considerations!
Ensure that your work is not losing money. This is the most basic professional ethics of a director. You cannot let investors waste money.
However, although many movies have poor box office, they have a high status in film history, such as "Mong Kok Carmen" and "Flowers in the Mood"...
...Don't always use Wong Kar-wai as an example, let's talk about the export copyright of "In the Mood for Love" which is very good...
The reporter was blocked for a while and was a little stunned, but he still adjusted quickly and continued to ask: Going back to "The Smiling and Proud Wanderer", how did you reconstruct the character relationship?
It has not been reconstructed much, because when Jin Yong created "The Swordsman", he had already set the tone for each character, and I don't need to do anything more... I always thought that the characters that can be passed down and accepted by the audience must have their own uniqueness, so it doesn't require too much change, just continue. The characters in "The Swordsman" have basically not been re-changed, but the original story cannot be copied, after all, the movie only has two hours...
So do you have any thoughts on the box office?
...The box office, you can get the money back, of course the more, the better. After all, "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer" is also a small summary of my martial arts movies. In the next few years, I may not touch the theme of martial arts again.

After the interview, Xu Hui returned to the hotel
After lying for a while, my spirits recovered a little, it was already noon
In the afternoon, there is still "Lu Yu You Appointment" to be recorded, and the movie promotion is like this, one program after another, one event after another!
Fortunately, now the version of "Lu Yu's Appointment" has been revised, and Lu Yu personally visits the interviewer, instead of flying to the recording hall like before...
Mu Hua knocked on the door and walked in: Brother Xu, Sister Yaya, Ni Ni and Yang Zi are here, they are waiting in the lobby!
...I know, I'll go downstairs right away!
OK, the staff is finally intact, and the publicity is on...
"The Woman of the Swordsman Family", the TV series Yaya is preparing for, the young lady is in full swing, fully demonstrating the style of the empress. The male lead and director were all selected by her, including a bunch of actors...
When you meet in the future, you have to call her the producer sister;
Yang Zi took on the movie "Fighting Changsha", and according to herself, she performed very well;
Ni Ni, a little embarrassed, her route is a bit collide with Tianai. Most of the company's resources were snatched away by Tianai's agency team, so she could only grab the resources from outside. Recently, she took on two dramas, "Breakup Contract" and "Plastic Surgery Diary"...
They all have a job
When Xu Hui walked to the living room, the three young ladies were sitting in the restaurant and eating happily
You try this, crab roe small bun, it’s delicious!
...I've been vegetarian lately...
Give it to me, I'm going to gain weight recently!
