Millennium director

"Hello everyone, I am director Wu Yuan.

"The movie "Young You" was a script I wrote myself. I personally approached Director Li Yang and invited him to direct this movie."

"I believe in Director Li Yang, and I also approve of his casting. Liu Yifei and Zhang Yishan are the most suitable actors for the two protagonists."

"I don't know since when, the atmosphere in the circle has changed."

"We are all pursuing big investment, pursuing superstar actors, paying attention to the equality of celebrity status, and paying attention to the level of popularity."

"But is this really the meaning of the birth of the art of film?"

"When will the selection of movie actors start? It only depends on the actor's popularity. Whoever is popular should be cast, and whoever is popular should be cast?"

"Not only does it require the leading actors to be popular, but it also requires that the leading actors' reputations should be equal."

"The so-called first-tier actors cannot act opposite second-tier or third-tier actors, otherwise they will insult the first-tier superstar."

"How ridiculous is this?"

"When movies become just a tool for actors and entertainers to compete for status, will anyone really pay attention to the artistic value of the movie itself?"

"I know that this industry is becoming more and more impetuous and falsely prosperous, but I don't want this impetuous atmosphere to be involved in my own movies."

"The movies we produce in the Light and Shadow Era always adhere to the principle of letting content speak for themselves. We never pursue big-name superstars or popular actors. We just want to select the most suitable actors for each story and put the right actors in the right positions for them. superior."

"This "suitability" has nothing to do with fame or status, it only depends on the fit between the actor and the role."

"Director Li Yang's casting this time is excellent, and I, as a screenwriter, am also impeccable. I am extremely looking forward to "Young You" becoming another movie with good reputation and box office success in the era of light and shadow."

"I also hope that everyone can have more confidence in our Chinese-language films. It is impossible to assemble good films with celebrity status first. This is a detour."

"Finally, Yifei and I have a very good relationship. Some bad media should stop spending their free time spreading rumors."

"After Yifei finishes filming "Young You", she will make a new movie with me. I will write, direct and star in it. Yifei will be the heroine. Please stay tuned."

A eloquent blog post of several hundred words was posted on Wu Yuan’s newly registered Sina Weibo account, which was quickly verified by real-name and celebrity authentication.

Although it is a new account and no one is following it, the Sina Weibo backend staff are keeping an eye on it.

As soon as Wu Yuan posted on Weibo, they immediately pushed this Weibo to the square and formulated it.

Now, in this era when Weibo is just starting out, it is still in the period of making money by posting money to gain users. There is no such thing as buying hot searches. Instead, Weibo takes the initiative to vigorously promote some wonderful and interesting blog posts.

Of course, Wu Yuan’s first blog post published on a domestic online social platform is also the top priority for promotion.

"Damn it, it's a real person!"

"Director Wu himself was forced to post a response on Weibo?"

"Okay, okay, it's okay if we don't break up. If Director Wu breaks up with Sissy, then I will never believe in love again!"

"Director Wu will co-star with Sissy in his new movie? Ghost fans are in luck!"

"This bad culture in the entertainment industry should really be punished. There are really too many actors whose reputation is greater than their ability. I don't think the movies they star in are good enough."

"We still need to give more opportunities to some truly talented actors. Movies are different from TV series. Everyone has to pay to go to the cinema to watch them. If the acting is not good, it will be very disappointing."

"Director Wu deserves to be the number one director in the country and dares to speak out!"

"I've long been tired of watching those actors who are not worthy of their popularity. Xiao Yanzi has never acted in a TV series since she hooked up with Master Xing. Who are you looking down on!"

"Director Wu should share more about his daily life on Weibo from now on. It's too difficult to post Sissy's Weibo next door!"

"Director Wu, let me teach you how to use Weibo. First of all, Weibo can be accompanied by pictures. You should add your own photos..."

A large number of netizens who surfed Weibo intensively immediately poured into Wu Yuan's Weibo comments and gave him a follow.

Of course, not everyone can listen to what Wu Yuan said.

Although the fandom culture in the Mainland has just begun, it starts off quite high because it stands on the shoulders of the giant in the Korean idol circle.

Some fans who attached great importance to the status of their idol actors and believed in the "doctrine" that the popularity of their idol actors was more important than anything else, immediately began to criticize Wu Yuan verbally and writtenly.

They don't care that Wu Yuan is a great director, so what do they do to them?

We don't like to hear what you say, and it's no use even if you are the president.

Great directors deserve to be trolled too. In front of trolls, all beings are equal.

However, in the eyes of Wu Yuan, who has been baptized by the developed Internet era, the current combat effectiveness of Internet trolls is just scratching the surface.

At least there are not so many fun people, abstract monsters, zoos and the like now.

However, after he posted this blog post, the truly sane netizens, as well as those who had sensed something was wrong with the current situation in the entertainment industry, became very impressed.

It is indeed an indisputable fact that the mainland film industry has embarked on a deformed path despite its rapid development.

In other words, this is the only way for a large-scale entertainment industry to develop and take shape.

Hollywood, Japanese and Korean entertainment circles have all gone through an era of "stardom comes first". At that time, the celebrity effect was also full. When investors are looking for actors, the first thing they look for is the actor's popularity, status in the industry, Influence, acting is the last thing to look at.

However, after experiencing that era, the current Hollywood, Japanese and Korean film circles have become more mature. Although their large-scale commercial films and heavyweight commercial films still have to be dominated by superstars, after all, only superstars can carry the box office.

But the various film categories in these film markets have matured.

They also have a number of films that mainly focus on the acting skills of actors. Commercial and literary arts are combined or go hand in hand. The market is flourishing and can accommodate large-scale commercial films that only pursue superstars, as well as high-quality commercial films that rely on acting skills to win.

In this regard, the mainland film industry still has a long way to go.

The current Mainland film industry has entered its first stage, where people only pursue big-name actors. Without big-name actors, they cannot attract investment and projects cannot be established. The industry is very impetuous. Otherwise, there are only big-name productions and big-name actors. Super commercial films made by superstars only have a group of small actors, self-admiring literary films made by small directors, and those commercial and artistic films in the middle range are completely blank.

And this is exactly the market that "Young You" and even "Love Letter" that Wu Yuan will do later want to explore and explore.

A mature film market should not only include blockbusters and artistic films, but also small and medium-cost and well-produced artistic and commercial films!
