1905 movie network news Recently, the "China Directors Exchange Program" jointly organized by the Film Bureau of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television and Twentieth Century Fox Film Company was successfully held in Los Angeles, USA. Seven China directors, including Jason Wu, Kim-ching Luk, Zhao Xiaoding, Zhao Tianyu, Lu Zhengyu, Yang Lei and Liu Yulin, were invited to visit the headquarters of Flowserve Company. This is the second exchange activity between Chinese and foreign film directors held by Flowserve after seven directors were invited in 2016, including Urshan, Zheng Baorui, Ding Sheng, Yu Baimei, Han Yan, Cheng Er and Yang Qing.

　

Chinese and foreign filmmakers talked at the peak, "The director’s duty is to touch the audience."

The four-day exchange training was rich in content. The director group of China, representing the cutting-edge forces, not only visited the FoxWorks Studio, the visual effects laboratory and the costume props library, watched many films produced by FoxWorks in the 20th century, but also visited the shooting scene (temporarily translated by AD ASTRA) and listened to many senior executives of FoxWorks introducing Hollywood cutting-edge technologies such as visual effects, VR technology, post-production and the production process of the film industry. In the meantime, famous Hollywood directors James Cameron (), James Mangold (), wes ball (), Lv Yinrong () and shane black (Xin) shared their experiences in film creation, and had a warm exchange with China directors on the adaptation of literary works, keeping the vitality of the series and the technical challenges faced by visual blockbusters. Invited directors from China said that FOSS’s creative innovation, industrial process and corporate culture in the 20th century gave them reference and inspiration.

　

Many invited directors mentioned in feedback that Hollywood’s perfect industrial process depends on a high degree of professionalism and fine division of labor; As a director, we should grasp the core and essence of the film, that is, the soul of the film, as James Mangold, the director of Wolverine 3: A Fight to the Death, said in the exchange: "The director’s duty is to touch the audience, not just to attract people’s attention. Movies that can stay in people’s hearts for a long time are not dazzling skills, but stories that can make the audience cry, make the audience laugh and resonate with the audience. This is the essence of being a director. "

　

China’s director group visited Avatar 2 to see the scene of the card god.

Jon Landau, a Hollywood gold medal producer, personally led China’s director group to visit the Light Storm Entertainment Company directed by Cameron, and shared the behind-the-scenes stories of every important prop that once appeared in the movie of Ka Shen, such as "in the heart of the sea" in Titanic and "Avatar" Na Mei Ren 1; 1 bust, special diving helmet with microphone for shooting, and CG liquid alien creature in Abyss provide technical preparation for the liquid metal robot in China. Jon Landau explained in detail the latest cutting-edge technology used in the production of Avatar 2 for China’s director team, and took the directors to enjoy the wonderful clips of Avatar Theme Park in Orlando Disney World through the big screen. At the invitation of James Cameron, he went to the shooting set of Avatar 2 to watch Ka Shen shoot a gun battle with a virtual camera.

　

Being able to watch Cameron shoot Avatar 2 on the spot also excited the China director group. Director Zhao Tianyu said, "In a way, technology is both artistic. I am amazed by Cameron’s unremitting exploration of audio-visual language and film technology. " Director Yang Lei praised: "Seeing Cameron shooting on the set, he solved all the trivial matters on the shooting scene with extreme technology, and devoted all his energy to the origin of drama. He can pay attention to the actors’ performance, scheduling and drama conflict just like rehearsing a drama, and then confirm other technical links such as position and lighting effect through post-production."

　

Wes ball, a young technical director, shared his post-production experience of Moving Maze.

In recent years, the dystopian sci-fi movie "Moving Maze" series has been deeply loved by young audiences all over the world, and will also be released in the United States on January 26th next year. Wes ball, the director of this series, attended the exchange activities and explained his experience in Hollywood with the director group of China. As a computer special effects student, he once posted an animated short film Ruin, which he spent eight months making on the Internet. The outstanding talent shown in it attracted Fox’s attention and started the road of directing. When shooting the first "Moving Maze", he also faced the problem of limited production funds. He and the crew used the LED display screen and green screen as the background to shoot the thrilling elevator scenes in the film, and skillfully used CG and other technical means to help build their own imaginary world. His sharing of specific cases and behind-the-scenes tidbits also aroused enthusiastic response from directors in China.

　

FOSS’s visual team has always insisted that visual effect is a tool to serve directors to realize their ideas and escort films. According to John Kilkenny, president of FOSS visual effects department, and Glenn Derry, vice president, "Producers in visual effects department will support and protect directors with their professionalism. During the preparation of director Ang Lee, the FOSS special effects team filmed a fragment of a real tiger and an experimental fragment of a CG tiger that was enough to be fake, and asked director Ang Lee to identify it, which successfully eliminated the director’s doubts about the effect of CG tiger. "

　

FOSS sincerely and professionally moved the director and attached importance to cross-cultural communication and China market.

In the sharing session of series director Lv Yinrong, she described the communication process and workflow of her first live-action film "Heart of Diablo" with Fowles. She said that Fowles is a studio that gives directors full creative freedom, and they trust the director’s ability and judgment. They just need to know what kind of human and material support the director needs and provide them. Emma Watts, president of Flowserve’s production department, introduced Flowserve’s new film plan to the directors, saying that the most important thing in film production is the true and shared feelings of human beings, which is the secret to make the film cross languages, national boundaries and cultures.

　

Through the sharing between Hollywood directors and FOSS executives, the China Directors’ Group not only felt the sincerity and professionalism of FOSS’ cooperation with filmmakers, but also fully felt that as a top Hollywood studio with rich and diverse production contents, FOSS insisted on making excellent films across cultures and national boundaries, especially its emphasis on the China market and its desire to cooperate with China filmmakers. Andrew Cripps, President of Flowserve International Distribution, introduced to the director group that Flowserve has a powerful distribution system for distributing films in 90 countries and regions around the world. He stressed: "For Hollywood studios, the international market, especially the China market, is occupying an increasingly important position."

　

postscript

The exchange activities of Fox Film Company in the 20th century made the directors involved feel a lot. glad you came. And it was highly praised by the Film Bureau. In a thank-you letter to Ms. Stacy Snyder, the chairman of FOSS, Deputy Director Zhang Hongsen said: "This exchange activity has broadened the horizons of directors in China to a certain extent, enriched their creative and production experience, and helped directors to shoot better films and promote the greater development of China films … In this sense, this exchange activity is of great significance and far-reaching influence. "

　

Director Wu Ershan:

"Thank you very much for your thoughtful arrangement. Five days of study is very fulfilling. I hope that more American colleagues will share their experience in filming with us in the future. China filmmakers and screenwriters can participate in this exchange, and there is no doubt that the development of the entire China film industry will benefit. "

　

Lu Zhengyu, director and executive director of peerless master:

　"I was fortunate enough to participate in the director exchange activities organized by the Film Bureau and Fox Company. During the short five-day trip to Los Angeles, the content of the exchange was very comprehensive from top to bottom, and it was particularly important to integrate with Hollywood’s top creative thinking and industrial system and broaden our horizons. Great! I hope that fox’s activities will be held every year, so that more China film creators can participate. "

　

"Love O2O" director Zhao Tianyu:

　"This time, it was very rewarding to participate in the FOSS director group. I am most interested in how the film industry can be combined with the creativity of directors. I can clearly feel this in my communication with several directors. (For example, wes ball, the director of Moving Maze 3, and Lv Yinrong, the series of Kung Fu Panda) I think that the high standards of industry and the creativity of directors actually promote each other. The movies we saw this time all confirmed this point. I can also feel FOSS’s interest in us and the China market. I expect FOSS to implement the production plan in the China market, and I am willing to participate. "

　

Yang Lei, director of "Biography of Shark Beads":

"First of all, thank you very much, FOSS. It’s been a very, very full week. The American film industry has always led the world’s films. The global distribution plan of American movies has made us see many high-level blockbusters, so the behind-the-scenes production of these blockbusters has also become a research topic for filmmakers all over the world. This time, I met several famous directors with different styles, including James Mangold, james gray, James Cameron (three James), wes ball, jennifer yuh and shane black.

　

What impressed me deeply was that when discussing why to make a film, several directors focused on treating characters and their emotions. This seemingly simple question was actually very difficult. Director Mangaud is also discussing his different styles of films, whether it is the western film "The Battle of Yuma Town", biographies and comic film "Wolverine 3: World War I", the same starting point among them is driven by the inner feelings of the characters. Shane black is also talking about the unexpected characters in his films. After a few days of communication, my biggest experience is that behind the seemingly complex and huge film industry, the soul is always these seemingly simple characters and emotions, and in the face of complex industrial processes, we must first find the soul. With the soul, the film will live, and then we will face those complex industrial processes.

　

Of course, the film itself is built on the basis of technology, so the technical solution is very important for the film. It can also be realized from the communication with these directors that understanding technology is very important for the creation of the film. Director Cameron often decides the very important selling point in his next film with the technical guidance. When he gets the liquid rendering technology, he will conceive the liquid robot. wes ball is a director who studied computer special effects. He can skillfully use various technical means to solve his imaginary world. James gray carefully explained how he would take some shots in the space capsule. Every director will eventually face the shooting complexity brought by industrial films, so process management becomes particularly important in industrial films. In the past, the production process of our traditional films was post-production-music-mixed recording, such as writing scripts-looking for actors-preparing the crew, serving-shooting-editing, etc. Then on the basis of this traditional process, industrial films will reorder the traditional processes, such as Cameron’s filming Avatar, which will change the order of some traditional processes. Including privz process, is applied to industrial process management system. Let me deepen my understanding of the importance of process management in making a blockbuster industrial system.

　

I am very grateful to FOSS for this arrangement. I was lucky to see James Cameron’s shooting scene, my idol director James Mangold and guillermo del toro’s Story of Water. I learned about the experience of a young director like wes ball in Hollywood, and I also saw how an animator jennifer yuh stepped onto the road of directing step by step. "

　　CCTV News:Pretending to be an acquaintance to borrow money, pretending to be a public security bureau, a procuratorate or a court officer to investigate a case, and hiding a Trojan link &hellip in short messages and QR codes; … These tricks must have made everyone immune, but do you know? Some telecommunications services that you have never heard of have also begun to become new traps set by scammers!

The mobile phone was locked and more than 50,000 yuan was stolen.

　　When he woke up, Mr. He in Shenzhen found that his mobile phone was locked. At the same time, a shopping platform account was stolen by strangers. Criminals used white bars to spend and apply for loans, and robbed more than 50,000 yuan overnight.

　　Later, Mr. He discovered that his mobile phone had been taken over by a strange number. The short message from the operator shows that this is a business to add a secondary number, and Mr. He’s mobile phone number was added as a secondary number by criminals. When the secondary phone is turned off, all short messages will be received by the primary phone, and criminals will receive Mr. He’s short message verification code during this period, and then commit crimes.

"Subnumber" ≠ "kinship number"

　　Without an ID card, a bank card or even a real name, the money is gone. What the hell is a minor number?

　　Many people think of "family number" at first, but "deputy number" and "family number" are not the same thing.

　　Family number usually refers to the phone bill package opened by different owners and different numbers in order to make calls between them cheaper, and the secondary number is the "one card with many numbers" service provided by operators. On the basis of not changing mobile phones and SIM cards, users can add up to three real mobile phones as secondary numbers. The main and auxiliary numbers can stand by at the same time, and you can freely choose any number to dial, answer the phone and send and receive short messages as needed.

Don’t reply to text messages too casually.

　　Then, how did Mr. He’s mobile phone number become the "secondary number" of criminals?

　　Reduction of criminal modus operandi

　　Step 1: Buy materials.Criminals buy leaked names, bank card numbers, ID numbers and reserved mobile phone numbers online, commonly known as "four big pieces".

　　Step 2: Fishing.Criminals apply to the users who have mastered the bank card information, initiate the business application of binding the sub-number, and find the target of the crime by casting a net widely. Once you reply by mistake, you are hooked.

　　Step 3: Forced shutdown.Because the main number can only take over the SMS when the secondary number is turned off, criminals usually use two means at this time. One is to use SMS bombing to force the target to turn off the mobile phone, and the other is to use the mobile phone cloud service to remotely operate the mobile phone.

　　Step 4: White Wolf with Empty Gloves.Using the SMS verification code received by the main number, criminals ransacked the online shopping account bound to the mobile phone number.

　　Patterns are stacked, and it is impossible to prevent them! For this kind of fraud, after receiving all kinds of SMS notifications, you must read the content of the SMS clearly and do not reply at will.

"SMS custody" business is also not very secure.

　　After the SMS storage service is opened, you can save your mobile phone messages on the server of the operator. Now, many mobile phone manufacturers’ cloud services are doing the same thing. However, this is a hidden danger function.

　　Case review

　　One morning, Miss Ding saw two short messages from banks and mobile phone operators on her mobile phone, which were sent at 3:43 am and 4:12 am respectively. As soon as the account is checked, the balance of more than 100,000 yuan will be zero overnight! Not only that, Miss Ding also suffered a credit card theft and was "applied" for a bank universal loan of 70,000 yuan.

　　How on earth did all this happen?

　　Reduction of criminal modus operandi

　　Step 1: Hit the database to get all kinds of account information.The so-called "library collision" means using software to try a high probability digital sequence. Using this simple and rude method, the user’s network identity, online banking account number, mobile phone business hall and other accounts can be seen at a glance. Insiders said: "The speed of library collision is very fast, at least thousands per minute. If some good equipment is used, the efficiency is higher and the success rate is above 50%."

　　Step 2: Open SMS storage and SMS interception services to obtain verification code.This is the most critical step. After the opening of this service, the dynamic verification code to ensure the safety of landing has successfully become the bag of criminals.

　　Step 3: Open the physical SIM card.At this point, criminals can pretend to be victims and apply for 4G card replacement service in the online business hall. For the convenience of the people, some operators can express the card directly to the designated address.

　　By intercepting short messages and copying SIM cards, fraudsters can "do whatever they want".

　　As we all know, many important services rely on mobile phone authentication. If you back up the SMS to the server synchronously, it will increase the exposure opportunity. Once the service password of the online business hall is stolen, or the login permission of the cloud service is stolen, it is equivalent to "swimming naked".

The loopholes in the unpopular business are targeted by scammers.

　　The "Research Report on the Trend of Online Fraud in 2016" released by the anti-fraud reporting platform "Hunting Network Platform" proposes that since 2016, online fraud has mainly shown several obvious characteristics:

　　Mobile phone cards have become new theft targets;

　　Jump to the phishing website by using short URL and weiyun sharing link;

　　Well-known recruitment websites and voice platforms for open recruitment;

　　A phishing website that is difficult to distinguish between true and false;

　　The implementation of precision fraud;

　　Fraud professionalism is getting higher and higher;

　　Using loopholes in new business and unpopular business to commit fraud;

　　Use cloud disk and synchronization software to steal information.

　　Among them, the loopholes in mobile phone cards and unpopular business are mentioned.

　　Security experts suggest that we should develop good online habits, don’t click unfamiliar links, don’t fill in our personal information in the website interface with unknown security, and regularly modify the password of social accounts to avoid information such as mobile phone contact information being leaked; Improve safety awareness, develop good habits of using mobile phones, and avoid being infected by mobile phone viruses.

CCTV News:Wulanchabu, which has the reputation of "Potato Capital of China", is located in the yinshan mountains, with large temperature difference between day and night and abundant sunshine. It is a golden potato planting belt, and its output accounts for nearly half of that of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. In these two days, Chayou Houqi in Wulanchabu ushered in a bumper potato harvest.

Reporter Yuan Yi:Do you think the potatoes in my hand are different from what I usually see? Its skin is red, and its name is "Houqihong". There is Ulan Hada volcano in Chayouhouqi where we are located, and these potatoes grow at the foot of the volcano. These potatoes can be said to be "drinking" volcanic magma mineral water and "enjoying" the sufficient sunshine at 41 north latitude.

Reporter Yuan Yi:Potatoes taste really good. Now the potatoes here have entered the harvest period, and harvesting potatoes is also very knowledgeable. Potato skins are thin and easy to be scratched, so they are all sorted manually. The colors of these bags are different. Look, this big sister’s bag is white, and the potatoes in it are quite big.

Farmers:Generally, it is more than three or two.

Reporter Yuan Yi:Smaller potatoes like this will be put in yellow bags.

Reporter Yuan Yi:How much can I charge a day?

Farmers:More than 200 bags.

Reporter Yuan Yi:Collecting potatoes in this field depends on unity and cooperation, and the separation of all the way is another harvest scene. The potatoes planted in this nearly 700-mu field are mainly used for starch processing. This working combine harvester works from turning the soil, shaking the soil and bagging in one go. From a distance, this big guy seems a bit heavy, but from a shooting perspective on the machine, we can see that the potatoes are spinning rapidly on the conveyor belt, and its efficiency can reach 5 mu per hour.

Although the seed potato is small, it undertakes the heaviest task, and one can sell for 3 to 50 cents, because it determines the yield of potatoes.

In addition to deep cultivation of potatoes, extending the industrial chain can double the price of potatoes. Here are all products processed with potatoes, including potato chips and environmentally-friendly disposable lunch boxes. At present, the total value of the whole potato industry chain in Inner Mongolia is 13 billion yuan, so it can be said that "small potatoes" have become the "Jin Doudou" for farmers to increase their income and get rich.

　　Recently, the National Bureau of Statistics released data. In April, the national consumer price rose by 2.5% year-on-year. Among them, the price of fresh fruit rose by 11.9%, which affected the CPI by about 0.22%.

　　According to media reports, the CPI data of 31 provinces in April have also been released one after another. Don’t look at the classification, there are 13 provinces with a year-on-year increase in fresh fruits, and 18 provinces with an increase of over 10%.

　　Why is the price of fruit "rising" recently? When will the price stabilize in the future?

　　On May 23, CCTV Financial Review invitedGuo Liyan, a researcher at the Market Institute of China Macroeconomic Research Institute, andWang Guan, a commentator of Yangguang Finance and Economics, was a guest in the studio.

　　Why is the fruit "rising"?

　　Guo Liyan: The seasonal supply gap of fresh fruit is bigger than in previous years.

　　Guo Liyan, a researcher at the Market Institute of China Macroeconomic Research Institute: The seasonal supply gap of fresh fruit is larger than in previous years, and there are several factors. The first is from 2018 to 2019.Disastrous weather occurred in different degrees in the southern and northern fruit producing areas during the growing period, and it is a gap period in the fruit market at present.

　　In addition,At the beginning of this year, there was a cold spring, and the handling cost and labor cost in some parts of the south also increased during the rain. Coupled with the increase in transportation costs, the price of fresh fruit rose.

　　Crown: "Yan value economy" has become a price pusher

　　Wang Guan, commentator of Yangguang Finance and Economics: From another perspective, I noticed that the number of fruits imported from Beijing Xinfadi is increasing, and the price of fruits is also rising.The impact of the increase in the proportion of high-end fruits such as foreign imports and organic fruits.

　　Consumers’ demand for "fine fruits" is increasing, which leads to the continuous improvement of the quality and grade of fruits. In addition, with the development of cities, some traditional farmers’ markets gradually fade out.The sales channels of new fruit specialty stores or comprehensive supermarkets, and the cost of property are increasing. These factors have promoted the price of fruit to a certain extent.

　　When will "low-key fruit" return?

　　News link:

　　Liu Aihua, spokesperson of the National Bureau of Statistics, said recently that the price of fresh fruit is affected by seasonal factors of extreme weather, and the seasonal short-term impact is not sustainable.The rise in the price of fresh fruit will not last at a high level.

　　Guo Liyan, a researcher at the Market Research Institute of China Macroeconomic Research Institute: From June to August, summer fruits began to be listed in batches, and melons such as watermelons and cantaloupes were gradually listed, which would lower the whole fruit market price.

　　By September, as new apples mature and enter the market this year, the price of fresh fruit will be stabilized, and with the gradual increase of supply, the price of fresh fruit will gradually stabilize.

　　Crown: E-commerce giants actively enter the market, price subsidies attract traffic

　　Wang Guan, commentator of Yangguang Finance: Now online shopping has become the choice of many consumers. Nowadays, e-commerce has entered an era of digging deep into stocks, and various shopping apps are attracting everyone’s attention.

　　Recently, everyone will see that at least 3 to 4 home appliance manufacturers have entered fruit producing areas, such as litchi producing areas, hoping to compete for traffic through the docking of e-commerce and fruit farmers. Consumers will download the APP and get discounts when buying fruits.These promotional measures are aimed at targeting the market and competing for users, but they also bring certain benefits to consumers.

　　Guo Liyan: Smooth supply channels, fruit prices will fall seasonally, and the price base will be solid.

　　Guo Liyan, a researcher at the Market Research Institute of China Macroeconomic Research Institute, said: People’s consumption is upgrading, and the quality of consumption is also upgrading. Now, we choose the best from the fruit seed industry.

　　I think subtraction should be done as far as possible around fruit production, storage, circulation, retail and distribution, so that it can reach the people through simple links and reduce costs. In addition, we should improve the quality of service supply.

　　On the other hand, around the supply, we can look at it from a broader perspective. Some good high-end fruits imported from abroad, such as fruits from Southeast Asia and other places, can be matched out of season, and some fruits can also expand their stocks. In the case of low stocks, we can stabilize the price of fresh fruits by expanding overseas supply, improving stocks and unblocking channels, which provides strong support for food prices. I think there is a solid foundation for stabilizing prices.

　　Crown: price increase and slow sales coexist. Agricultural modernization needs to be accelerated

　　Wang Guan, commentator of Yangguang Finance: Recently, fruit prices are rising, but this year,In some places, fruits are also unsalable.

　　Because the freshness of fruits is relatively strong, the sales channels are not smooth for a short time, which reflects to some extent that there is a relatively high room for improvement in order agriculture, and our agricultural modernization needs to be accelerated in the future.

The three movies I like are difficult to choose. There are too many good movies. Mencius said, "Enrichment is beauty." As far as aesthetic enrichment is concerned, I think that in the twentieth century, movies surpassed literature. Kafka, Joyce, Proust and Lu Xun are quite substantial, but entering these texts also requires strong patience. Modern art is too poor, leaving only some boring ideas. Cheng Hao said: "If you can’t keep it, just talk." Art can’t kill time if it can’t be preserved. I can stay in the Louvre all day. I have also been to Pompidou many times, each time for no more than a quarter of an hour. For twenty years, I watched a movie almost every day. Not Hollywood movies, of course, but those so-called "art movies". The word "art film" is not frivolous, it is a bit like the position of "novel" in the 19th century.

Sitting in a dark room for two hours can get the sense of fulfillment brought by Cao Xueqin, Jinling Xiaoxiaosheng, Joyce and Proust. Only Ferini, satyajit ray, Bresson, Abbas and antonioni can do it. Tell me about three recent movies.

Movies are obviously the metonymy of the world. Taoism is natural. This sentence of Laozi is directly the essence of the film.

There is always a "nature" hidden in the cinema.
