The Director of Music Department

1341. The Dilemma of Comedy Films

Fu Rong, Fang Xiongfei, and Mi Huayuan came together.

"Fang Xiongfei!"

"Fu Rong!"

"Mi Huayuan!"

As the lucky three, it can be said that everyone is actually quite excited.

Even Mi Huayuan was equally excited.

When he first returned to China, he collaborated with Wang Yifan for the first time, and he became the number one director of online dramas.

Later, the first domestic film he directed fell to the ground, which made Mi Huayuan recognize himself.

I started to settle down and focus on doing web dramas.

But he is also ambitious. The big screen has always been what every director yearns for the most.

Because the three of them are good at different things, there is actually no competitive relationship between them, and the atmosphere seems more harmonious.

"Director Fang, I really didn't expect that there are directors like you in China. How did you manage to make two hundred movies in ten years?" Fu Rong naturally knew Fang Xiongfei a little bit. , the same is still a trace of competition.

But he was really intimidated by Fang Xiongfei's resume.

Two hundred movies in ten years is simply outrageous.

But this is true. Although the names of many movies are very similar, no matter what, it is absolutely outrageous that so many movies have been shot.

For many directors, let alone ten years, it is estimated that it is difficult to make double figures in the films they have made in their entire lives.

But Fang Xiongfei got more than 200 copies at once.

Mi Huayuan was also surprised when he heard the words.

"Haha, I make all routine movies, and you should know that my movies, to put it bluntly, are just peddlers, but the two are the real ones."

"Honestly speaking, I have also made comedies before, but in the end, I couldn't enjoy myself. I am ashamed to say it." Fang Xiongfei revealed his shortcomings as soon as he came up.

"There is also Director Mi, tsk tsk, the number one person in online dramas, and the number one in three hundred and sixty lines, Director Mi is the number one in online dramas!" Fang Xiongfei gave Mi Huayuan another flattery!

"Director Fu, Director Wang invites you in!" At this moment, an assistant came out to call Fu Rong.

"You two, I'll go ahead." Fu Rong said to Mi Huayuan and Fang Xiongfei with a smile.

"Director Wang! President Dai!" Fu Rong walked into the office and saw Wang Yifan and Dai Xinyue.

"Director Fu, sit down!" Wang Yifan smiled and pointed to the seat, signaling Fu Rong to sit down and chat.

"Director Fu, you should know the purpose of asking you to come here today, right?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.

Fu Rong nodded and said, "Thank you Mr. Dai, thank you Director Wang!"

Wang Yifan shook his head and said, "You are not a new director anymore, let's chat casually, what do you think of the current domestic comedy film market? Tell me your opinion!"

Fu Rong didn't answer immediately after hearing this, but pondered for a moment before saying: "At present, it seems that domestic comedy movies have not had any hits in recent years, but I think that audiences still have a great demand for comedy. However, because everyone has been engaged in big productions, the result is that comedy movies have been ignored. Although some comedy movies appear occasionally, they are not particularly good liars. Since Lin Tao directed, comedy movies have been advocated by a group of people It's starting to decline, but in my opinion, comedy movies are far from dead."

Wang Yifan nodded.

In fact, although everyone knows that comedy movies will never become obsolete, the current situation is that there are fewer and fewer comedy movies worth looking forward to on the market every year.

"Then what do you think is the cause of the decline of comedy movies?" Wang Yifan asked again with a smile.

"I think there are many reasons for this. On the one hand, it is because the mode of comedy movies is familiar to the public, and it is difficult to produce any refreshing new types of comedy movies. Coupled with the popularity of short online videos, many The jokes, jokes, and stalks have all been played badly by the netizens, which has led to many audiences having a strong sense of humor in comedy movies, and it is difficult for the audience to get pregnant with ordinary funny plots." Fu Rong has obviously studied this.

"On the other hand, it is also because of the market. The rise of Huaguo's market has brought about a variety of movie genres. At the beginning, the best-selling movies in the market were comedy movies, which can often be small and big. But now, With the rise of the domestic economy and market, the benefits and influence brought by other big productions have begun to far exceed comedy movies, and naturally comedy movies have begun to be abandoned by them, and because comedy movies themselves have old routines, Therefore, it is too difficult to introduce new ones, and it is difficult to produce hits, so the directors of comedy films in the early days began to switch to other types of films, which exacerbated the decline of comedy films!"

What Fu Rong said was true.

In fact, the biggest impact on comedy movies is the Internet!

As we all know, it can be said that netizens today are completely different from those in the early years.

All kinds of short videos and funny jokes on the Internet emerge in endlessly, which can be said to greatly enhance the resistance of the public, and it is difficult to make them laugh with ordinary jokes.

On the other hand, although the investment in comedy movies is not high, low investment and high return are already a thing of the past.

Now there are still low-cost comedy movies, but most of the time, they will be complained about, and the jokes are not novel enough.

Another point is that, as Fu Rong said, the domestic film market is now in full bloom.

All kinds of movies have been tried, and in fact, the headlines have a strong lead.

The representative figure of early comedy movies, Lin Tao and his Lin's comedy, every time it is released, it can attract a lot of imitators in the follow-up.

But now Lin Tao has gradually withdrawn from the stage due to his health, and the first film of comedy movies has begun to be missing, and has gradually been replaced by other types of movies.

In addition, the entry of Ahri Media, Wansheng Group, Future Technology, Star Technology and other capital has made the film industry no longer short of money.

And the entry of these giants must first focus on big productions, such as action tracks, such as science fiction blockbusters, such as popular IPs and so on.

And what about comedy movies?

These kinds of movies are indeed beginning to withdraw from the mainstream stage today.

Of course, this is also inevitable for the development of the film market.

Even Hollywood is actually the same. In recent years, there have been very few pure comedy movies in Hollywood movies.

It is more of a series of IP adaptation movies.

As a result, the status of comedy movies has become extremely embarrassing.

Fu Rong is already considered a relatively successful comedy director in China. Other comedy directors either switched to other genres, or simply went straight to TV dramas or web dramas.

"Then what kind of comedy do you think will make the audience like it?" Wang Yifan asked with a smile.
