Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

Just when Hong Kong audiences were enthusiastic about gambling, the Red Sorghum director Zhang Yimou, who won the highest bonus bear award at the West German Berlin International Film Festival, starred Gong Li, Jiang Wen and others returned from West Germany.

Various domestic media are reporting the news that the red sorghum won the award, and the domestic release of the film is also in full swing.

No way, who won the red sorghum award, not only won the Golden Bear Award, but also won the International League Art Film Award, the "City News" Reader Jury Award, and the New Film Forum Award. Although the latter three are far inferior to the gold The Bear Award is not the award of the Berlin Film Festival, and the Jury Picture Award and the New Film Forum Award represent the recognition of the red sorghum by the local media in Berlin. It can be won by the judges by winning the Golden Bear Award and the media. Unanimously, it is not easy.

After winning the grand prize, Zhang Yimou, Gong Li and his entourage were enthusiastically picked up by the relevant departments and filmmakers after returning to China, and an interview was arranged immediately after the pick up.

The sensational effect of "Red Sorghum" at the West Berlin International Film Festival marked the milestone that this year's film festival became the first time that a Chinese mainland film entered the forefront of the world.

Moreover, the red sorghum was a powerful defeat, overwhelming the formerly optimistic Soviet film "Female Political Commissar" and heavyweight films of the United States, East Germany and other countries. It won the unanimous support of 11 judges and won the "Golden Bear Award" in one fell swoop.

In Berlin, the premiere of "Red Sorghum" stunned the audience at the festival. The applause proved that the audience's enthusiasm exceeded the Soviet film. It was the first time that there were two prolonged applauses at this festival."The next day, the Morning Post, a major daily newspaper in West Berlin, described the scene of the film festival in this way: "The audience looked at the screen in surprise and intent. They were not only shocked by the strong language of the pictures, but also a kind of Feeling confused by the rough colors of foreign style and feelings.Inside and outside the film festival, there was a lot of praise for "Red Sorghum", making everyone feel admiration for the Chinese director."

As a result, "the competition is coming to an end, and people don’t even want to watch the last few films anymore. What they are looking forward to is the award ceremony. On February 23rd, the chairman of the jury made a loud voice. It was announced: "The Chinese film "Red Sorghum" won the Golden Bear Award". Long applause broke out again at the venue, and the warm atmosphere at the film festival reached the extreme.

These are very propaganda points. The red sorghum award is a filmmaker for China, which is in desperate need to gain international recognition during this period. It is a big victory in cultural propaganda and must be well publicized and reported.

In an interview, Zhang Yimou said: "Red Sorghum" is a legend with a mythological meaning.The whole film extols humanity and vigorous vitality in a mysterious color.Therefore, praise of life is the theme of this film.It is to praise life through the shaping of the character's personality, praise the endless vigor of life, praise the freedom and spread of life."

But obviously the general public does not understand the meaning of these themes.

On the day Gong Li and the others came back, Qiao Feng specially flew from Qingdao to Peiping to pick up the plane. As a result, there were too many people picking up the plane. Moreover, with the multimedia, Qiao Feng didn’t squeeze forward, and it was difficult to squeeze forward Go, only wait for them and the group to finish the interview before they meet up with the glum Gong Li.

Qiao Feng agreed to pick up the plane on the phone, but Gong Li didn't see Qiao Feng after getting off the plane. He thought that Qiao Feng hadn't come, and in his heart he felt that he was not taken seriously, and he was very concerned. At that time, I was absent-minded, not at all like the movie that participated in the film won the grand prize. When the reporters went away and saw the sudden appearance of Qiao Feng, Gong Li's heart was hit by the surprise of the loss. The tears came down.

After that, the two realized their wishes in the hotel. She wanted to sleep with him, and he wanted to put her to sleep.

The two did not rush back to Shandong the next day. Gong Li participated in two interviews. After that, Qiao Feng played with her in Peking and watched the red sorghum in the movie theater near Dongdan in the evening.

This is also a domestic feature,

Just like the release of red sorghum, if it’s in the United States and other countries, then you have to wait for the film to be released. When the theater arranges you, you can, even if you get a big award, it is impossible to say that other movies Squeeze away to let you go first.

However, there is no problem in China. If you win the prize over there, you can arrange the screening right away. Although it can't be shown in the whole country, the big cities can still get a certain copy of the screening as quickly as possible.

Gong Li is the starring role. Naturally, she has watched the film a long time ago, and she did not watch it less when she was in Berlin. She went to the cinema mainly to stay with Qiao Feng. After all, she had to care about the eyes of others outside, and she was not open at this time. People walking too close will attract the attention of others, but when you enter the movie theater, you can do whatever you want, pull, pull, hug, as long as it is not high-profile and noticeable.

As for Qiao Feng, he mainly wanted to feel the atmosphere of the mainland movie theaters at this time, and listen to how the mainland audiences view red sorghum at this time.

Then, when the movie was put in the scene of Kaoliang Diyehe, the whole movie theater was breathing in excitement and exclaiming.

No matter what Zhang Yimou wants to express in the movie, ordinary audiences don't care, what they care about is very vulgar, such as this sorghum field.

Listening to those excited calls, Qiao Feng felt that for people who were still very simple at this time, perhaps this scene in Gaoliangdi would be the first sexual enlightenment for many young men and women.

When it comes to love, Westerners say: "Give me a bed." But the Chinese say: "Distance produces beauty." The Chinese have always been "the rose of shyness opens quietly", ashamed to talk about love, not to mention sex .In the 17 years after the founding of the People’s Republic of my country, our country has been repelling the sense of love in literary creation. Therefore, we cannot see the love between Wu Qionghua and Hong Changqing in "Red Detachment of Women"; Was squeezed out alive; but "Early Spring February" was severely criticized for its petty bourgeoisie.Later generations saw the movie characters at this time, whether it was Lin Daojing, Wang Cheng, or Li Xiangyang, and Li Xia. Although they were all iron-clad heroes, their lack of emotional description made them too divorced from reality and their images were dry. Romantic hero.In these 17 years, Chinese romance films were almost blank.

After the reform and opening up, the Chinese people's love consciousness finally began to awaken, but it still has gone through a very long process.Romance movies have gradually become popular. For example, "Love in Lushan", a film that has influenced a generation, has a very pure and beautiful love story. This kind of love is not contaminated, so it still looks unique to the 80s. Time love".By 1988, this scene in "Red Sorghum" allowed the Chinese to complete an epoch-making sexual enlightenment.
