Solar terms in Zhang Yimou
However, after investigation by netizens, it was found that Zhang Yimou not only directed the opening and closing ceremonies of the two Olympic Games, but also silently directed many national-level events in China, such as the 70th National Day party and the cultural performances at the G20 Summit in Hangzhou. So why can Zhang Yimou win the trust of relevant departments and why can the opening and closing ceremonies of the two Olympic Games be successful?
As the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics and the movie Sniper challenged the Spring Festival, the famous director Zhang Yimou became one of the hot spots in the Spring Festival, and various favorable comments made Zhang Yimou's personal reputation unprecedentedly high. In addition to praise, many people are discussing why 72-year-old Zhang Yimou is still so energetic and clear-headed; Don't stick to the rules, keep innovating, have big brains and great wisdom.
Let's recall two fragments about Zhang Yimou's works. During the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics and this year's Winter Olympics, there were videos on the Internet of Zhang Yimou, the general director of the Olympic Games, leading the organizing committee to work overtime behind the scenes to discuss the creativity of the program. Among them, in the video of preparing for the opening ceremony of the Summer Olympic Games, there is a discussion on the creative link of movable type printing by the program group.
Zhang Jigang and Chen Danqing strike table, saying how this idea can be realized, this method is too tight, where there are so many complicated props. However, behind all kinds of negations and impossibilities, the old man finally insisted on making the impossible possible, presenting it perfectly and unparalleled.
In a video of a behind-the-scenes preparatory meeting for the Winter Olympics, Zhang Yimou looks full of energy in the middle of the night, while many young workers nearby can't stand the fatigue and sleep stagger. Zhang Yi still smiled and stressed: I can't sleep until I finish tonight! Zhang Yimou is busy with the opening and closing ceremonies of the Winter Olympics. At the busiest time, he only sleeps for three hours a day. There is an interesting video in which Zhang Yimou is sitting on the ground, leaning against the table and eating a bucket of instant noodles.
In the interview afterwards, Zhang Yimou praised the team's efforts for many times, and stressed that the perfect opening ceremony was not his alone. To this end, he had to reinterpret the significance of this opening ceremony many times. I hope everyone will pay more attention to the connotation of the opening ceremony skills and not pay too much attention to him. To tell the truth, the opening in Zhang Yimou was really perfect.
On the other hand, the movie "Sniper" he is showing is not so good at the box office. Perhaps Zhang Yimou's success in the Winter Olympics is only one aspect. Without making his movies more popular at the box office. As a director. In fact, there is no honor worth making a blockbuster movie. Because it not only represents the director's hard work, but also represents the trust of investors and the results of the actors' efforts. The director played an important role in it.
They said all the movies directed by Zhang Yimou at the box office. However, judging whether a director is professional or good enough, the box office does not represent everything. As the best director who just won the Golden Rooster Award, Zhang Yimou. It is his pursuit to shoot a work that is worthy of himself and can move him. Facts have proved that Zhang Yimou's works are indeed worthy of conscience.
You can feel this by looking at his watertight speech art and movies. He loves the country, does the things of the country seriously, achieves the extreme, wins honor for the country and makes the people praise him. His motherland is the most important. He attaches importance to his family, returns to his family, stresses family happiness, and makes a harmonious family a strong backing and a warm harbor for his return after work.
