"No, no, I really think so. If my selection criteria today do not represent my personal directorial ability, aesthetics, and style, I will choose what other directors think is good."
“Then I would question myself as a director, am I expressing myself or am I imitating others.”
Director Guo is a genius of sophistry after all. To be honest, Su Bai thinks he is very suitable for "The Debater". It will definitely be interesting to let him try his hand at a battle of wits with those fast-talking people.
Director Er also took over at this moment, "I actually think there's really no need to explain. If you like it, just post it. What do you think, Teacher Li?"
Li Chengru's expression was a bit mysterious, and he said calmly, "As a film reviewer, my role is to comment on actors, but now you want me to comment on the issue of four directors issuing S-level cards..."
"It's just...can I express my opinion?"
Su Bai was very happy. He really wanted to hear the true words from this rigorous old actor!
Very nice!
Ahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Dapeng's smile at this moment was uglier than crying.
Oh shit!
The situation is going to develop in an uncontrollable direction again. It's so difficult to smooth things over. I shouldn't be the host!
But what can I do? I can only smile and say: "Sure, everyone can express their opinions."
Li Chengru: "I don't like the practice of changing things at will."
Guo Xiaosi looked at Teacher Li Chengru with a stern expression.
The atmosphere in the field has dropped to freezing point at this moment!
"One moment he said I didn't choose him just to work with him, and the next moment he said I chose me just to work with him, all from the same person!"
Guo Xiaosi couldn't help it any longer and interrupted, "Teacher, let me add something. What I mean is..."
Li Chengru was not going to give in either, and he just vented his anger at being scolded. "Wait until I finish!"
Guo Xiaosi: "Okay, okay, you go first, and then I'll answer your questions."
Li Chengru didn't give any face at this moment: "You should learn to respect others even at such a young age!"
Wow!
If Su Bai wasn't afraid of ruining the atmosphere, he would have started cracking the melon seeds in his pocket immediately!
Stimulate!
"There are only eight S cards for four directors, and there are 40 actors. There is a question of fairness and justice, as well as the question of affirming his acting skills and his performance level. It's not something you can just do casually!"
The person who was feeling the most uncomfortable at the moment besides Guo Xiaosi was He Changxi.
What a sudden disaster!
It's not something you have to have as a young man, right?
Damn it, not only did he not act well, but he was also repeatedly brought out and flogged!
Holding this S card makes me feel like I'm sitting on pins and needles, like I'm walking on thin ice.
He Changxi’s mind is now filled with an emoticon package, a little man throwing things away, and subtitles: I don’t want it anymore!
Director Guo then responded: "In all the movies I've made, not all of them have great acting skills. Many of them are pure newcomers."
"When they were filming, their acting skills were actually not mature and very immature. This is a unique relationship between the director and the actors, and you can discover their beauty."
"There are many good horses, but few good horse trainers. When I chose Guo Juncheng and Jin Jing last year, there was actually a lot of controversy. But in the end, they still made many people remember them and many people thought they performed well. That's where I see the difference."
"I don't think the second one is so fickle, because the rule we learned from the director team is that we directors can follow our own hearts and give out the S card we want. If everyone discusses and selects the best actor, that's a different way of giving it out."
“I want to say to Teacher Cheng Ru: You can dislike something you don’t like, but you have to allow it to exist.”
Upon hearing this, Li Chengru immediately picked up the microphone he had put down. "I was about to stop talking, but you're saying this. Director Guo once said, 'Existence is reasonable.' The original meaning of this sentence is that there is a reason for existence! Existence does not necessarily mean it is reasonable."
Dapeng suddenly interrupted: "But he didn't seem to say that just now."
Li Chengru: "He was about to say it, he almost said it just now, it's his catchphrase."
Dapeng was surprised, "You foresaw this?!"
Guo Xiaosi: "I didn't say it was reasonable. I just asked for permission to choose what I wanted to choose. Let me make my own choice within the scope permitted by the rules."
Li Chengru: "Every director has his or her own judgment, that's true. But of the four directors on stage, can't three of them see the excellence of an actor who showed no pain despite being stabbed in the chest with a sword? How would you explain that to the other 39 actors? How would you feel?"
Dapeng stepped forward to make his closing remarks: "Director Guo, we often have different opinions, but this time, Mr. Li, I stand with Director Guo. You just mentioned our young age, and yes, we are young, but we have also made several films. But as a senior whom we respect, we have all been young. I think the production team invited four directors to come in order to have more diverse voices."
"Although we have different opinions, it doesn't mean that those who hold different views from me are wrong. I hope we can still give some space for different voices to bloom on this stage."
These words were actually quite pertinent. Su Bai smiled and said, "Actually, what you said all makes sense. I would like to offer a small suggestion."
"I understand that Director Guo has his own criteria for selecting actors, and I think that's completely fine. What Teacher Li said is also absolutely correct. This is more of a competition variety show, and fairness is very important."
