On January 5th, the theme forum of the 2021 China Jinan Wu Tianming Youth Film Summit - "Cross-generation Filmmaker Dialogue: The Power of the Moment" was held in Jinan International Fashion Creative Center. The forum invited "fourth generation" director Lu Xiaoya, "fifth generation" director Xia Gang, new generation of young directors Yin Ruoxin and Cao Jinling to share their personal choices and the power of the times in their minds.
At the age of 80, director Lu Xiaoya is still active in the front line of film creation. She recalls that in the 80s of the last century, she made five films that reflected the times. Among them, the literary adaptation of the film "Hot Love" successfully shaped the migrating generation in the 1980s: a group of people who wanted to change their living environment, from all over the world to the south. Another film, Inside and Outside the Courtroom, has a keen insight into the theme of director Lu Xiaoya's reflection on the rule of law at that time after experiencing many waves.
"Fifth Generation" director Natsuoka confessed when asked by guest host Fujii Shu about "what is the source of his own creation": "The vision and yearning for the outside world is a product of the era in the 1990s. His masterpiece "The Great Satan" tells the emotional flow of young people in the face of the "tide of going abroad" after the reform and opening up. In this film, Ge You and Xu Fan play two people who are forced to stay because their spouses went abroad.
Yin Ruoxin, who was born from the Central Academy of Drama, has been systematically educated by the drama academy before officially entering the film industry. The accumulation of deep heart in the early stage allowed her to avoid the impetuous atmosphere of the industry. After entering the industry, she wrote and directed the movie "Goodbye, Teenager", and then used the movie "My Sister" to trigger the issue of women's survival dilemma.
Young director Cao Jinling is a non-science creator, and she studied economics at an undergraduate level. Before filming Mordauga, he worked as a police officer for ten years. When she realized that she had the desire to write, Cao Jinling entered the Chinese opera system to learn theory, and then went abroad to study film practice creation. The movie "Wuhan Day and Night" is her record of how the epidemic has changed the way everyone lives.
In the interactive session, asked how to write a realistic story that reflects the times, Lu Xiaoya believes that "we should care about the people around us", Xia Gang replied that "we should pay attention to people's inner pain", Yin Ruoxin believes that "creators need to open their five senses to feel the world and people at any time", cao Jinling uses Bichner's lines, "Everyone is an abyss, and creators need to use their own emotions to deeply experience and express".
