Chapter 501: Commercial films can also be advanced
With the development of the plot, the main line of the story gradually became clear, and the factory director dug up a priceless jadeite and wanted to rely on it to bring the factory back to life, but it provoked all parties to get moved.
In addition to the two forces of Brother Dao and Feng Dong, there are also branches of Sanbao, Xie Xiaomeng, Bao Shihong's obscure illness, and so on......
In the face of such abundant clues, the audience also quickly learned the correct way to watch the movie, and the audience was very receptive to the ambush and fuss set up for the movie!
"I'll give you a lung!"
"I'm a brand, Baleno!"
"Nike?
"You women, you just don't understand, this stage is the rising period of my career, how can I walk away?"
"My daughter-in-law was slept with by someone else, and no one cared about her...... We're not married, but we have a real relationship...... What? No one cares if you get married, and there is no royal law?...... What kind of lawyer are you?"
"Come, kid, give your daddy a call. ”
"You first insulted my personality, and now you are insulting my IQ!"
The hilarious lines came one after another, making the laughter of the entire movie theater one after another, and there was almost no time to stop.
In a word: the rhythm is tight, the baggage is full, and there are no urine spots throughout the process.
The ending of the story is also like most domestic movies, good is rewarded, evil is rewarded, and Bao Shihong, who kept the kindness, had the last laugh.
When he was with his lover on the dock, he smiled brightly, the lover who was always by his side, the kindness in his heart, these are the real priceless treasures, and no matter how expensive the jade is, it can't be exchanged!
At the end of the film, Huang Bo is chased by the shopkeeper on a scooter while biting bread, and Tchaikovsky's "The Nutcracker" sounds, and the film ends......
"Whoa!"
Almost instantly, the audience slapped themselves and saluted the film, to all the main creators, and to the sincerity and enthusiasm inside.
The screen dimmed and the lights came on.
Liu Yiwei walked onto the stage upside down, happily took the microphone and asked the audience below, "Is the movie good?"
"Beautiful!"
"Are you happy?"
"Happy!"
The emotions of the audience have long been mobilized.
"Happiness needs to be shared, please promote it more when you go back, and try to make friends come to the cinema to be happy!"
"Good!"
"Hahaha!"
These words somewhat smelled of driving, and caused a burst of laughter from everyone.
Liu Yiwei said a few words on stage, and then announced: "Now let's invite director Ning Hao and the actors to the stage with warm applause!"
The main creators came to the stage, Ning Hao, Guo Tao, Liu Hua, Huang Bo, Zhang Yi, Yue Xiaojun...... Deng Chao, Liu Li, and Xu Guangtou did not come. The first two are the leading traffic niches of their respective companies, and although the latter is a lewd man, in the past two years, because of the explosion of a series of costume comedies such as "Zhu Bajie", "Li Wei", and "Love Through Time and Space", there are also continuous film appointments, and there is no trick.
He Xin and his girlfriend Cheng Hao consciously did not steal the limelight, and they both shrank to the side. Before the movie was screened, everyone watched He Xin and Cheng Hao more, as well as the stars who came to cheer, and they were not interested in the unknown crooked melons and cracked dates, and even a little disappointed.
But now it's completely different, comparing the respective characters in the play, seeing their faces with a little cramped and nervous, the audience below can't help but laugh.
"Thank you!"
Ning Hao stood on the stage and kept thanking the enthusiastic audience below. Although he has directed two movies before, he has never been so popular with the audience as today, and this guy was full of excitement for a while.
"First of all, I want to thank Mr. Yu Dong and my partner He Xin!" he pointed to Yu Dong, who did not come to the stage, and He Xin, who was standing on the very edge.
Yu Dong sat on his seat and nodded, while He Xin hurriedly waved his hand at him. "Stone" was completely Ning Hao's work from the beginning, and he played a limited role in it.
"No, no, no!" Ning Hao also shook his head.
"Actually, I had such an idea about 2000 years ago in the book "Stone". Actually, it was still very imperfect at the time, and to be honest, I didn't think it was a mature script at first. But He Xin found the bright spot in this story, and he has always encouraged me and supported me to shoot this story. Later, Mr. Yu joined, which ensured the birth of this movie......"
Ning Hao was excited, nervous, and at the same time felt very lucky. From "Incense" all the way to today, he feels that he is much smoother than many of his peers.
"Incense" went to Venice, "Green Meadow" went to Berlin, and now "Stone" has tossed such a position. He felt that all this was after he got acquainted with and cooperated with He Xin, and He Xin had been pushing him behind his back.
Channels, funds, distribution, and even film festivals, these almost don't have to worry about him, as long as he devotes himself to creation, what a valuable resource for a grassroots director with no background, maybe only those big directors have such qualifications.
At this moment, he was really grateful to He Xin.
When it came to interviewing actors, Guo Tao was decent, but Huang Bo, who has rich grassroots stage experience, shook his wit, and the interaction with Liu Hua and Yue Xiaojun, the stupid thief trio in the movie, ushered in bursts of applause and laughter from the audience.
"Come on, let's interview our 'Mike' He Xin!"
Compared with the other casually dressed, He Xin's black dress today looks very unusual, like a group of social elites among turtles. Coupled with the cool expression he always has in front of the media and the public, it reminds people of the dedicated, even if he is full of embarrassment, he still has to say to Zhang Yi on the phone: "There was a little accident, but everything is still under control".
And especially when the audience thinks of Liu Huaqiang in "Conquest", the murderous and unblinking wind and fire in "Seven Swords", and the ghost wolf who is both righteous and evil in "Wuji", I feel a special sense of contrast.
Therefore, when he walked out from the side and poked so cool in front of the stage, the audience on the stage couldn't help but laugh again.
Hey, what's the laugh?
Looking at his bewildered look, he was stolen from the movie, and then found that the rope was broken, and finally found out that he had killed the wrong Mike. The laughter from the audience intensified.
"Okay, okay, the laughter and applause from the audience really speaks to the success of this character you've created. ”
Liu Yiwei took the microphone and interviewed on the spot: "He Xin, your previous works are basically dramas, why do you want to try comedy this time, and you still play a supporting role?"
"Well, I want to play the protagonist, especially Bao Shihong played by Brother Tao, I like this role very much, but it's a pity that the director won't let me!"
Hey?
Liu Yiwei felt that this should be a topic, and hurriedly asked, "Why don't you let it?"
"The director said that I am not as good as Brother Tao!" he pointed at Guo Tao, pretending to be helpless.
Guo Tao hurriedly clasped his hands together and said that he didn't dare to do so.
"Director Ning, is that so?" Liu Yiwei took the opportunity to point the microphone at Ning Hao again.
"That's right!" Ning Hao nodded with a smile.
After the initial nervousness, he also let go at this time, and explained with a smile: "Of course, this is not a problem of acting, the main thing is whether the character is suitable or not." I think the qualities of Bao Shihong's character can't be found in him, but Tao Ge has them. ”
Saying that, Ning Hao also joked: "Actually, at the beginning, I wanted him to play Xie Xiaomeng, such as Xie Xiaomeng's literary and artistic style, I was tailor-made for him at the beginning......"
"Hahaha!"
The audience couldn't help laughing again, the impression of He Xin in the minds of the audience at this time, to paraphrase the words of later generations, can definitely be called a "literary male god". After all, he has made so many literary films.
"Of course, he may prefer the character of Mike, probably because he may think that he should be a little cooler in addition to the literary style......"
Although the interviews are all routine questions and routine answers, they can't stand the enthusiasm of the audience. When it came to the audience's question session, the audience was even more crazy to grab the topic.
Publicity, what we want is this kind of atmosphere, everyone has to answer questions, just as a rehearsal before the roadshow.
As the saying goes: the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway.
Although the directors and filmmakers here all laughed like fools when they watched it, their hearts were full of shock and admiration after laughing.
For example, Lu Chuan's first feeling after watching it was "Ning Hao, this guy really dares to shoot like this!"
He even couldn't help but go on stage to help his little junior brother say something famous, roughly Ning Hao continued to shoot like this, Feng Xiaogang should be nervous or something.
This passage has appeared in too much entertainment, so I won't look for the original sentence here.
Lu Kuan is a proud man, although he is a little ambitious and talented. But he has always positioned himself at the level of Chen Dadao and National Teacher. And although the little junior brother Ning Hao's "Stone" shocked him, in his eyes, it was at most the future Feng Xiaogang. So he doesn't mind helping his little brother talk.
For example, when Chen Pancake heard Ning Hao say on stage that the role of Bao Shihong He Xin was not suitable and Guo Tao was suitable, he couldn't help muttering sourly: "Actually, I am also suitable for this role." ”
Although Uncle Pancake is bubbling sour water, the speaker has no intention of listening to the heart. Wu Yue beside her suddenly felt a move in her heart, she was able to get together with Uncle Pancake for so many years, mainly because of Uncle Pancake's talent and ability.
He graduated with a master's degree in the Department of Chinese Opera Performance, and won the Golden Lion Award for Chinese Drama when he entered the Mandarin Drama Drama, and won the Feitian Award for the audience's favorite TV series actor award for the first time he filmed the TV series "Ten Years of Marriage", which is commonly known as "Shidi".
So Wu Yue feels that her boyfriend definitely has the ability to develop in movies, but there are too few movie resources these years.
She turned her head and reminded her boyfriend softly: "Today is a good opportunity, you can have more contact with Xiaohe in a while." ”
said, and couldn't help complaining: "Your current problem is that the circle is too narrow, don't mix with your classmates all day long in the future, they are unreliable to look at." It's time for you to expand your circle, and the opportunities are all up to you. ”
Chen Pancake's circle of friends is the buddies from Zijiang Province who went to school together in Chinese opera, Li Yapeng, Wang Xuebing and the like, although both of them are very popular now, especially Li Yapeng, who was once crowned as "the first student in the mainland". But Wu Yue was never too interested in them, and always felt that none of them seemed to be doing their jobs. Of course, his boyfriend is a white lotus in this gang.
Chen Pancake is a bit machismo, if Wu Yue said this, he would definitely stare at him, but now he thoughtfully glanced at He Xin, who was interacting with the audience on stage, and he didn't say anything.
In recent years, the so-called excellent comedy movies in China have either been a collection of pants-style jokes, or a short small market in the parents, with witty language and upward themes, but the narrative technique is just one word, flat.
And "Stone" is advanced, it is the first domestic comedy film to adopt a multi-line narrative.
The narrative of the film pays attention to editing, and it is the so-called "montage".
The montage technique of "Stone" is a cross montage to tell the story as a whole, and the three clues are sometimes connected and sometimes disconnected, dividing a time and space into three angles, which greatly increases the capacity of the film and makes the details richer.
Especially in the second half of the film, the three clues are constantly colliding, and the camera is quickly cut between the three perspectives, so that people dare not miss a single detail, and this tension cannot be done by continuous montage.
The so-called continuous montage means to cut the sequential.
Not only that, but the script itself is very interesting. There are three groups of characters in the story, the international thief hired by the real estate developer Xu Guangtou from Xiangjiang, led by Brother Dao, supplemented by Heipi and Xiaojun as the thief trio, and Bao Shihong as the head of the security department.
The three groups form an ingenious triangle, and you come and go between the three, fighting wits and courage, and the slightly absurd stories become interlocking and ups and downs, and many plots are amazing after the audience watches them.
And the core of this story is very clear, it is that piece of jade!
This also guarantees that comedy doesn't become a farce!
And all of this invariably scratched the itch of the filmmakers and the perennial movie-savvy journalists, who seemed to them that this was not a simple popcorn movie.
It turns out that commercial films can also be made advanced!
