Chapter 856 It’s Broken, I Was Stolen
The day before the countdown to the festival, the organizer of Sakura released a comprehensive ranking of art works in recent years on the official website.
Because the International Cultural Exchange Festival is held every four years, this list only counts the data in the past four years.
The list of art works is divided into five major sections: music, film and television, literature, dance and fine arts. Each section has the ranking of the works and the country to which they belong.
The appearance of this ranking list instantly attracted the attention of all the audience who paid attention to the festival. They also wanted to know what excellent cultural works each country had produced in these four years.
The first to bear the brunt is the film and television industry. As expected, the top one is the blockbuster of the United States. Whether it is the box office popularity score or the international influence, this data is unshakable...
The unparalleled comprehensive national strength of the United States, as well as the overall cultural influence, superior geographical location, and the absorption of high-quality talents from all over the world, etc., determine that the United States is the world's top in many aspects, not limited to pop culture and movies.
Under this premise, it seems inevitable and not surprising that the United States' film industry can dominate the world for a long time.
There are also two domestic films in the top ten, one ranked sixth and the other ninth. Although these two films are not very influential internationally, there are many people in China, which takes advantage of the box office.
It is worth mentioning that the ninth-ranked film is "A Chinese Ghost Story" written by Pu Tong. This film was released during the Spring Festival, and its subsequent influence has not diminished at all. It soon broke the domestic box office record.
Yes, his film also took advantage of the box office, and the international influence is not much... There is nothing to do about it. If the popularity is not enough, the number of people will make up for it.
Although it sounds a bit embarrassing, a large number of people means that the market is large enough, which is also an advantage.
Pu Tong frowned. In fact, the domestic film market is not as bad as imagined. There are still some directors who can make good things, but it is difficult to go out for various reasons...
From the perspective of creation, there are many differences between American films and domestic films.
American people also admit that their own films are not as culturally tasted as their films, but the strength of American people is that they are good at starting from pragmatism and creating entertainment that caters to the general public.
In the movie rankings, there are two domestic works in the top ten. Although they are somewhat unworthy of the name, the data is still okay.
Looking at the literature list again, the performance of the domestic industry is surprising...
The top ten works are basically winners of various international literary awards in recent years, because there are no domestic works that have won awards in recent years, so there are no works on the list.
"It feels like it's about the same."
What he said was about the same, in fact, it was here and his previous world. Even there, the last time a work won an international literary award seemed to be Liu Cixin's "The Three-Body Problem".
It has to be said that the domestic industry is a bit impetuous nowadays. How many people will calm down and read literature?
In such a cultural atmosphere, how can the spirit be rich and how can the literary market be formed?
Many countries will cultivate children's literary attributes from an early age, but in China, reading classics has gradually become a kind of idle reading...
Pu Tong can't say this kind of thing. It can only be said that without the right soil, it is difficult to produce the corresponding fruits.
Then there is the dance ranking list. Pu Tong originally just wanted to take a quick look, but he never thought that there would be acquaintances on the list.
"Spring River Moon Night"-Lin Yuxi
"Isn't this the dance that Yuxi danced on the Spring Festival Gala? It's on the list, and it's ranked fifth!"
Yu Wanwan excitedly hit Pu Tong's shoulder. The two of them remembered that the Spring Festival Gala is actually broadcast live around the world. Maybe there are few people watching the Spring Festival Gala abroad, but the art of dance has no language, and even foreigners can appreciate it.
This dance satisfies all the fantasies of many international friends about the mysterious East. It is beautiful and dreamy, just like a dancing fairy.
Although this dance ranks only fifth, you have to know that "Spring River Moon Night" has only been released for half a year. It can be among the top five dance works in four years. This is already very remarkable.
If there is enough time, it is not impossible for this dance to be noticed by more people.
"Why are you so happy?"
Pu Tong felt that her shoulders were about to be broken by Yu Wanwan's beating. She felt that Lin Yuxi's dance was on the list, and she was happier than herself.
"It's Yuxi's wish to step onto the international stage." Yu Wanwan said seriously: "She is one step closer to the path of Senior Lin. I am really happy for her!"
It seems that it is a true sisterhood...
But think about it carefully, her words are also reasonable. For Lin Yuxi, this is definitely one of the things that makes her happiest. Stepping onto the international stage as a dancer is just her first step. Her goal is to follow her grandmother's footsteps and step onto the stage of Golden Vienna!
Pu Tong doesn't know much about the painting list. There is also an ink painting on the list in China. It seems that the artistic attainments are higher. It's awesome.
Appreciating ink painting actually requires a certain artistic threshold. This kind of artistic conception is difficult for foreigners to appreciate, but this unique style and strong artistic atmosphere still attract many people.
Finally, it is the field of music. Before Pu Tong had time to look at it, Yu Wanwan on the side screamed, almost scaring Pu Tong to throw the phone away.
"Is it that serious?"
"The first on the list is me!"
Yu Wanwan jumped three feet high with excitement. Pu Tong clicked on the music list and found that the first place in the music list was really "Because of You". The list of creators behind it still had their names.
There was more than one domestic song in the top ten music list. Who else could it be if it wasn't "Spring River Moon Night" just now?
Dance is popular, how can dance music not be popular?
In the previous lists, domestic art works were all standard, but I didn't expect that the music list would be a big one.
More importantly, in this complete list, Pu Tong's name appeared four times, once in the movie, once in the dance, and twice in the song.
This kind of thing is the first time in the international cultural festivals over the years. The name Pu Tong was instantly noticed by many foreigners. Who is this guy and how can he be so versatile?
Is there really someone who can write scripts and compose music, or music of completely different styles.
Many people have become curious about this artist from the East. This guy is definitely a genius, otherwise how could he achieve such an unprecedented achievement.
Just when the outside world was hotly discussing who this person called "PuTong" was, the Korean media came out to speak out that PuTong was from their country.
PuTong was stunned when he heard the news. It's fine if he stole culture, but why did he start stealing people? Damn PuTong, he even changed his last name...
Oh no, I was stolen.
