This conversation was 1 minute and 33 seconds. I posted it in Moments and recommended it to many founders. As an entrepreneur, if I can answer Zhao Wei’s question, I think that most movies should be the art of the director, just like most companies, the corporate culture is largely the character of the founder.
For the entire season of the show, an average of 3 hours of variety shows per episode, the actors’ performances are watched for 30 seconds, and then they are directly doubled or fast forward to the director’s comment. There is basically no full-text reading. In the process of watching the movie, Mark Twain’s words popped out of my mind more than once. Sometimes reality is more absurd than drama, because fiction is carried out under a certain logic, and reality is often illogical.

Zhao Wei: Regarding film and performing arts, no matter how much achievement or experience you have gained, you will have endless questions about it. May I ask whether a film is the art of a director or the art of a film. May I ask director Shaohong?
Li Shaohong: No matter what people say, for me, film is the art of a director, just like a symphony orchestra. No matter how good performers are, they also need a conductor. I also want to ask Director Kai Ge, should film art be more loyal to the market, or loyal to yourself?
Chen Kaige: The two can be integrated. I think we must be faithful to my creative ideas and adapt to the ever-changing market changes. Director Guo Jingming, if you have to choose your career again, what is your other choice?
Guo Jingming: Then I choose to be a screenwriter, so that I can write stories I like, and the stories I like can be turned into movies. I would like to ask Director Zhao Wei. In the current market environment, some people say that the threshold for actors is higher. It’s higher and higher, some say it’s lower and lower. What do you think?
Zhao Wei: I don’t think it has become higher or lower. It should have become broader. This is very good, so that more people can realize their dreams and make movies more selective.

After the repetitive questioning, there is also such a dubbing narration: The star journey is vast, searching up and down. Don’t talk about resumes, let your acting skills be in place; don’t talk about traffic, let your professions be in place; don’t talk about beauty, let your roles be in place. Strength is the only pass to pass the battle; shaping characters is the eternal highest task of this profession. Actors are always waiting for the opportunity to call, and are always passively waiting for the director’s choice. Please be in place, Actor, ACTION!
