In my memory, I used to be ignorant in high school, after school meals, and even during the self-study class where the teachers often made surprise attacks. At that time, I was completely with my hobbies in the dimly lit temporary library next to the school, and rented it. The content is a little ambiguous and makes people feel a little unpredictable online novels, and the students who read them with gusto and joy are completely different. At that time, I was madly obsessed with the martial arts novels written by Jin Yong. Perhaps this is in Two thousand years have coincided with the booming era of online literature like bamboo shoots after a spring rain. There are a little out of place and the opposite, but this still does not prevent me from loving Jin Yong's martial arts novels.
In addition to personal preference and the familiarity of the family environment, many online novels are still obsessed with "when a certain protagonist's tiger body is shocked, and a burst of domineering aura is exuded," such people make people feel Looking back, I can't help but laugh at the cookie-cutter and shallow passages, but Jin Yong's heavy words are just like the famous line in "Wang Yue" written by the poet Du Fu, "I will be at the top of the mountain, and I will see the mountains and small mountains." It is generally described as having such a grand master attitude, no matter how the times change, it is still at the cutting edge of culture.
I still remember Jin Yong's "Flying Snow Shoots the White Deer in the Sky, Laughing Books and Heroes lean on the Bi Yuan" in the "Dragon and Eight Parts" in Jin Yong's writings. In the battle of Juxianzhuang, where Xiao Feng's heroism was vividly displayed, Xiao Feng used his own With the powerful Taizu Changquan that even a beginner in the Central Plains can practice, he can fight against the heroes of the world and remain invincible, although Mr. Jin Yong asked Xiao Feng to use Taizu in his writings. Changquan has the intention of satirizing the people in the world who are famous and upright, and who are full of righteousness and righteousness of the nation, but this also reflects a potential and objective fact from one side. Invincible and the loneliest sword demon Dugu seeks to defeat. It is described by its old predecessors. There is a certain level of martial arts. Flying flowers and picking leaves can hurt people
. After watching the horror film "The Conjuring", I can't feel more emotion than this.
In fact, if you talk about horror films today, many people will list out to you one by one about the expression methods of today's horror films. The so-called gimmicks and expressions of horror films are in the name of the first Since the birth and development of the horror film, the omnipotent use of extreme techniques has already confronted the audience whose shooting techniques and horror sections have gradually become unattainable with the continuous development of living standards, so that the level of appreciation and knowledge has not been what it used to be. The level of appreciation is usually the burden of the director and the screenwriter who racked their brains and thought about it day and night. Before it can be shown in front of the audience, they have already faced the embarrassment and embarrassment of Sima Zhao, which is well known to passers-by. After many horror films on the market today are launched, both the media and the audience will basically unanimously evaluate them as old-fashioned, lackluster, uninnovative, etc. Nowadays, if you want to make a horror film that looks good, is loved by the audience, and is well received by the critics, it is no less difficult than Heracross picking the golden apple of Hesparides.
Then Wen Ziren did it.
Maybe when it comes to Wen Ziren, there are still many people who are not interested in the genre of horror and thriller, and they don't know much about it, but if you mention the phenomenal film "Speed", which won 340 million box office on its first day of release in China last year And Passion 7", then many people still recall the fear of being dominated by all kinds of contrived nonsense on the social software in their hands at that time, of course, to be honest, as far as I am concerned, if I put aside people such as Paul Walker In terms of gimmicks such as accidental departure, the entire film of "Fast and Furious 7" can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. In the hands of Wen Ziren, he did not turn this series into a miracle, and what he did was undoubtedly a step-by-step process. An action movie is produced according to the American-style production process, and does not express its personal style, so in my opinion, let Wen Ziren have strong personal characteristics in a certain type of film. When the director goes to cross-border to direct other types of films, it is inevitable that there will be some southern oranges and northern oranges that are not acclimatized.
Different from the implicit and freehand horror films represented by Shimizu Chong's "The Resentment" and other oriental horror films with half-covered pipa, the series of horror films directed by Wen Ziren are relatively Most of the styles are based on Western realism. Generally speaking, in these horror films directed by Wen Ziren, there is no shortage of plasma and other products that Western audiences like to see under popcorn and cola. However, as a Malaysian Chinese descent As a Westerner, Wen Ziren not only satisfied the tastes of Western audiences, but also contained the horror of the Eastern way. The tricky use of shooting and expressive techniques, combined with the hearty bloody scenes, makes a strange story that even if you watch a movie and tell a story, you will feel unbearable. The ingenious means must be said to be Wen Ziren's success.
Every time I watch Wen Ziren's film, I can't help but associate it with Jiro Ono in a documentary "The God of Sushi". Apart from the fact that the two are a legitimate prime of age, the other has Outside of the old age, the subtlety of his subordinates' work is the same. The former has the ability to make a few ordinary horror movies often seen, the backhand turns into a cloud, and the backhand turns into a rain. The calm and bland food of the restaurant and even the conveyor belt sushi restaurant has transformed into the ability to have a great and mysterious taste. These two have the same goal in different ways on their respective roads, and have the same purpose, the same materials, the same ingredients, but when it comes to The subordinates of extraordinary people have achieved extraordinary results, which is the most astounding.
Only in recent years, with the great acclaim of Wen Ziren's consecutive films such as "The Hidden" and "The Conjuring", more and more films have arrived unexpectedly like the snowflakes of thousands of trees and pears. At the same time, it is not difficult to see that Wen Ziren is not reconciled to being shackled by the limitation of type in a certain field, so he began to continuously shoot different types of films, which also makes people a little worried about whether there will be such as Sam Ray The injury of Zhongyong, who is just like rice, after all, the former used to shoot at a low cost such as "Ghost Playing People", which are monumental works in the history of cult films, but then gradually gave up this project. Genre films, I switched to commercial films such as "Spider-Man". Except for the refreshing and refreshing "Falling Into Hell" in 2009, there was no achievement. A director with a strong personal style began to gradually Compromise and homogenize to the market, of course, I believe that in terms of Wen Ziren's ability and vision, the probability of such a situation is still extremely small.
There is a cloud in Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching", the big sound is like a hope, the elephant is invisible, after Hitchcock and Kubrick, under the secret consideration, only Wen Ziren can manage a department with such a light weight. A classic horror movie.
