Recently, the famous actor Jin Dong said in an interview that slow work produces fine work, which has aroused heated discussion among netizens, and under the huge response, it is the impetuous mood of an era. In the 1980s, the term entertainment was coined to death, and under the impetuous mood, people became more and more willing to accept fast food culture. Everything began to seek short, flat and fast, and when we look at Hong Kong movies, we will find that the movies produced here are basically limited to 90 minutes, and few movies have adventures of more than 120 minutes. Later, as the network became more and more developed, people's understanding of the entertainment industry became more and more casual. Especially in recent years, the show has become more and more impetuous, and everyone has rushed to imitate some of the molded patterns.
Especially in recent years, many actors have stopped acting in TV series and movies but have switched to reality TV shows. Although as a variety show, reality tv is not easy and requires a lot of skills, but this type of program is difficult to call a work, which is more like a hunting program that satisfies the curiosity of the audience, using a real person to show the way to meet the public's curiosity about the life and education of celebrities and the way of love. This kind of program has been rampant in the mainland entertainment industry in recent years, and there is an uncontrollable momentum. Why are reality shows so popular? It is nothing more than high ratings, and this kind of program does not need to be carefully elusive, it can be watched at any time, without head and tail and logic.
In fact, for the entertainment industry, there is not much sense of crisis, after all, the existence of this culture is to entertain the public, to put it bluntly, everyone through the entertainment industry, is to activate the boring life, not to talk about the so-called sense of crisis. However, under the premise of being happy, does entertainment culture also have certain social functions? If we look back at history, we will find that novels, interpretations, operas, etc., are actually ancient entertainment cultures. In the long history, these so-called entertainment undertakings were actually called the lower nine streams in the era at that time. However, with the change of the times, some cultures have been engraved in the soul of the nation, and some cultures have disappeared in the dust of history.
Entertainment culture itself, in the vertical and horizontal contrast, there is also competition. Survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest, actually exists in the entertainment industry. It's just that in the current social rhythm, people's faster and faster pace of life has made many people become addicted to small videos and chicken soup texts. Many people take small pieces of their hands, which are called works, and under these so-called works, what is displayed is nothing more than some more sensual content, which seems to have laughter, but it is extremely empty.
Is culture entertaining the present, entertaining the present, or is it engraved in the spiritual totem of history? This is a proposition in itself, but from the experience of history, a good culture is destined to shine through the ages, while a bad culture is only a fleeting moment. Many people only focus on the immediate material benefits and forget the mission of the profession. Makes it easy for people to fall into impetuosity. Jin Dong, as a powerful actor in many classic dramas, has participated in many classic works. Such an experience has given him a certain understanding of his professional mission. It is precisely because of this understanding that he has the industry call for slow work and fine work.
For the current economy and society, slow work is no longer a reasonable model. Looking at the immediate benefits, many fast-food cultures have been able to feed enough stars. Through the hype of the internet and social platforms, coupled with the planning of the pry team behind the scenes, there is enough attention. But most of these stars, with almost no works, occupy enough resources just by relying on popularity, which creates a bad industry atmosphere. It is not that everyone is unaware of jin Dong's principle of slow work and fine work, but after everyone sees this unfair competition phenomenon, it is difficult for many actors to sink their hearts to study their works and acting skills.
Everyone is trying to expand their traffic through the Internet and self-media. Feel free to post a small video of your own life, and casually post a few paragraphs of interaction with the life of a certain star in the video. At this time, the income comes, the popularity is maintained, in this case, who wants to rack their brains to study the work? Take Zhu Zhiwen, a peasant singer who has recently been controversial, who has been debuting for 10 years, and in 10 years, how many songs he has sung and how many performances he has performed.
Nowadays, relying on the popularity of self-media, Zhu Zhiwen, a coat brother, has gained popularity. Objectively speaking, in this case, did he still maintain his original pursuit of music? When Zhu Zhiwen does not need to sing to maintain popularity, will he continue to study the works? For most stars, the work is often just a springboard for their fame, and then they begin to eat the old book, which naturally has no so-called slow work.
With the development of network technology and the flexibility of media forms, people are becoming more and more fast-paced media methods. In this case, it is not simply that short and fast are not good works, but lengthy is good works. This evaluation is also inconsistent with Jin Dong's statement of slow work. The meticulous work here is more about quality, which is an attitude of doing things with mentality and character. At present, many people think more about the results after fame than the most essential content. Singers and actors are thinking about the various treatment after becoming famous, without thinking about how singers and actors can become famous. This is the problem of mentality, and this mentality also determines the current flood of low-quality works.
Jin Dong's slow work is a wake-up call to the current entertainment industry. This alarm bell is not aimed at individual actors, but at the ethos of the entire industry. In an increasingly impetuous environment, people must know how to create works with a deep heart, so as to maintain the healthy, long-term and stable development of the entire industry, and to make the industry better complete its historical mission.
