Lock the field & anti-lock the hot search on the field？ The film ＂Sansheng III＂ responded to the controversy.

Director and producer of Sansheng III

1905 movie network news The fantasy love movie starring Liu Yifei and Yang Yang (hereinafter referred to as "Sansheng III") is showing. The film landed in the mainland cinema on August 3, and the pre-sale box office before the opening of the painting exceeded 100 million yuan, and the box office has exceeded 400 million in four days, with good results. However, what is opposite to the high box office is the declining reputation of the film. The plagiarism of the original, the role modeling, the plot content and the actor’s acting skills have caused great controversy and extensive discussion on the Internet.

　

On August 6th, "Sansheng III" held a "Q&A" conference in Beijing. Director Zhao Xiaoding and producer Sa Zhilei appeared and responded to the controversy about the film one by one. When it comes to the confrontation between fans’ large-scale "lock-in" and cinemas’ "anti-lock-in", Sa Zhilei thinks it is normal for fans to support idols. As for the refund phenomenon of cinemas, Sa Zhilei said, "This is definitely not a large-scale phenomenon. The cinemas have their own considerations, and there is no need to rise to the interpretation of conspiracy theories."

　

Query: fans "lock the field" and cinemas "anti-lock the field"

Response: Refund of cinema tickets is not a large-scale phenomenon, and there is no need to rise to conspiracy theories.

　

Recently, the news about the "lock-up" of fans of "Sansheng III" has caused a lot of noise. "Lock-up" means that after the movie is released in the cinema, fans buy tickets for empty movies and "lock" the movies, so that the cinema can’t cancel the movies or change them to ensure the movie is scheduled. As early as the pre-sale stage of "Sansheng Sanshi", fans organized a nationwide "lock-up" activity, and the "lock-up" of tens of thousands of performances triggered the "anti-lock-up" of cinemas: cinemas forcibly refunded tickets on the grounds of "equipment failure" and changed to the same schedule.

The fermentation of the incident has also attracted the attention of the industry. Some netizens think that this is a normal ticket purchase behavior of fans, and some netizens think that it is not appropriate to use one or two tickets to "lock the field" when there is a big movie in the same period. In this regard, producer Sa Zhilei believes, "I think fans buying tickets is an expression to prove their love for this idol and this work."

　

As for the cinema’s "anti-lock-up" refund behavior, Sa Zhilei responded, "Other movies have actually appeared, and I don’t rule out that there are, but I think this is definitely not a large-scale phenomenon, and the cinema has its own considerations, which is understandable. There is no need to rise to the interpretation of conspiracy theories, and we can understand all kinds of topics caused."

Question: Is it difficult to get rid of the original sin of "plagiarism"?

Response: When the film bought the copyright, it avoided the controversial content when it was unwittingly created.

　

The film "to the sky kingdom" was adapted from an online novel of the same name. After the film was released, the original author Qi Tang was suspected of plagiarizing news and caused a storm again, so many viewers refused to pay for the film. In this regard, producer Sa Zhilei said that the original choice to shoot "Sansheng III" was "completely from public opinion". "We bought the copyright without knowing it and developed the project through legal steps. Before September 2015, we did not pay attention to the voice of the novel suspected of plagiarism. If the novel is finally proved to be plagiarism, in fact, as a producer, we are also victims."

　

Sa Zhilei revealed that after the novel "Sansheng Sanshi" fell into the "plagiarism gate", the film team also avoided the controversial content in creation. "I asked the screenwriter to delete all the controversial places, so now the to the sky kingdom we saw in the cinema has no controversial parts at all, and there are many original plots and lines." Sa Zhilei also said that the original crime of "plagiarism" is unfair to the film. If a sequel is developed later, the problem of "plagiarism" will be solved first.

Question: YeHua Fancy Lamian Noodles is too thunder?

Response: I want to design it interesting, reflecting the overbearing president and warm man of YeHua.

　

On the day of the release of "Sansheng III", a clip of YeHua’s "fancy noodle-throwing" while cooking for Bai Qian spread wildly in Weibo, causing netizens to ridicule "Did Yang Yang go to Haidilao to learn from a teacher?" The film was even denounced as "Sansheng III’s ten-mile Lamian Noodles". At the press conference, director Zhao Xiaoding responded by saying, "This is normal. This discussion is actually a very normal discussion at the level of artistic creation."

　

When talking about the original intention of the play, Zhao Xiaoding explained, "YeHua’s character has the characteristics of overbearing president and warm man. We try our best to make him have the characteristics of a male god, so I want to make the cooking play interesting. If we let him roll noodles, cut noodles and pull bellows here, it will basically become a rural film, but he is a fairy. " Sa Zhilei also added, "Sansheng Sanshi is a story of sadomasochism, which means that there are many emotions released later, so some contrast will be added in front."

　

Question: Does Bai Qian’s wedding headdress have spicy eyes?

Response: I admit that the headdress is not well made, and I hope everyone can forgive me.

　

In addition to Yang Yang’s "fancy Lamian Noodles", Liu Yifei’s pink headdress at her wedding in the film was also collectively denounced by netizens as "spicy eyes". For this cumbersome and heavy headdress, director Zhao Xiaoding told us that the headdress symbolizes the cumbersome rules in the Heavenly Palace. "In the process of wearing costumes and headdresses in Bai Qian, there were many cumbersome rules. She was really annoyed and said that I wouldn’t wear it because she used to live in the unrestrained atmosphere of Qingqiu. We cut these details because of time."

　

Producer Sa Zhilei also admitted that the headdress was not well-made. "Not only the director, including me, including Yifei and Yang Yang, were somewhat dissatisfied when they saw this headdress at the scene, but because of the shooting time and various relations of the crew, they also implemented the spirit of the contract well, and did not say that the stylist should go back and change it, because it was really too late, which was also a regret of the film." Sa Zhilei also called on the audience to pay attention to the performance of the actors. "I hope everyone can forgive us for making such a mistake in headdress this time. If you can calm down and watch this play, you will find that Yifei and Yang Yang are very exciting."

Question: Is Yang Yang’s acting "greasy"?

Response: Yang Yang was very strict with himself and said that the facial paralysis performance was too vicious.

　

The acting skills of the two protagonists in the film are also the focus of debate on the Internet. Liu Yifei was criticized for his "facial paralysis" acting skills, while Yang Yang was called "greasy" by many people. Regarding their performance, director Zhao Xiaoding said, "Everyone has their own imagination of Bai Qian and YeHua. I think Yang Yang and Liu Yifei have done a good job, and there is no problem from the director’s point of view. I have also noticed some comments, which have basically risen to the level of personal attacks. It is actually more vicious to say that the performance of facial paralysis is very harmful to the actors. "

　

When producer Sa Zhilei talked about casting, he said, "Now there is an argument that you chose small fresh meat, and it is a crime for you to choose traffic. People with value just can’t act, which is actually unfair to young actors." He also revealed that Yang Yang was very strict with himself on the set. "At the end of the day, basically, the scene was urging Yang Yang to leave, because he was discussing the plot with the rough cutter on the scene and watching various replays to see if it was not good enough. Is it possible to find a director to remake it the next day? He is very modest."

　

Regarding Yang Yang’s tears in the roadshow of "Sansheng III", Sa Zhilei also explained, "I followed the whole roadshow. In fact, Yang Yang cried once. At the Shanghai premiere, he was moved to sob because the wool of the audience kept calling for Yang Yang to cheer. He didn’t cry because of external comments. Yang Yang is very strong. He is also a soldier. I believe this is reflected in him. "

　

Question: Is it difficult to understand the plot changes?

Response: It is difficult to show 200,000-word novels in two hours, and the concept of reincarnation is expressed at the end.

　

Due to the length of the film, Sansheng III mainly interspersed the memories of the first two generations in the stories of Bai Qian and YeHua III, and cut off a large number of characters and emotional lines in the original work, which made many original parties dissatisfied and many viewers said that they could not understand it. In this regard, Zhao Xiaoding admits that the biggest difficulty of the film is to adapt the 200,000-word novel into an image within two hours. When considering the script, he must also "reluctantly give up what one loves". "I try my best to make the editing rhythm of the commercial film and make it as fast as possible in the story advancement. We would rather let the audience feel that he has not seen enough when he leaves the cinema, nor let him feel bored here."

　

For the ending that many viewers "didn’t understand", director Zhao Xiaoding explained, "Mo Yuan and YeHua used a concept of reincarnation in China Buddhism. At the end, everyone found that YeHua’s soul actually returned to Mo Yuan and continued in Mo Yuan’s body. There is an inversion at the end of the film. We just use visual language to express the concept of reincarnation and complete a relatively complete love story. "
