Chapter 302: It's up to you next
In his previous life, He Xin's impression after watching "Wuji" was roughly that the picture was dazzling, Zhang Baiju was really beautiful, Chen Hong, who had no eyebrows, was not good-looking at all, a stick and a devil, and a bloody case caused by steamed buns......
Other than these, including what the plot is about, there seems to be no impression.
In fact, the plot of "Wuji" is really simple, it is a story of polyamorous love. The human society depicted in the film is also extremely concise, and the three elements of political power, army, and slaves are omitted even by the general public.
At the same time, the characters are extremely concise and capable, such as the general Guangming, the Duke of the North Wuhuan, Allure, Kunlun, and the ghost wolf.
The character setting is roughly: the general Guangming was first endowed with the attributes of the god of war, and his behavior and later Wuhuan's narration are enough to present the proud, ruthless, and cunning character traits of the general.
In the process of the director's revenge, Duke Wuhuan of the North reflects his perverted personality of being gloomy, violent, and suspicious.
Slave Kunlun is gifted with running skills, and has experienced the process from chaotic obedience to self-consciousness awakening, and loyalty and kindness are his background colors.
The beauty Allure exchanged the right to be loved for glory, so she was torn between longing to be loved and escaping from being hurt.
The ghost wolf survived, and he lived in guilt and fear most of the time after suffering the extermination.
If the light represents the glory, pride and masculinity of men, then Wuhuan represents the more complete jealousy, violence and viciousness of men, and what the two share is hypocrisy and cunning. On the other hand, the loyalty and sincerity of the slave Kunlun, the unique beauty of the country, but in the predicament of survival when he was a teenager, he exchanged the glory for the right to be loved.
The plot revolves around the relationship between these characters, because the generals Guangming and Allure are both bearing the prophecy of the gods, so the process of Guangming's failure and the process of Allure being loved have become the absolute main line of the film.
Once the other characters lose their connection with the Light and Allure, they will be reduced to side lines. For example, Duke Wuhuan of the North became a key figure by taking revenge on Allure and removing the light, and the slave Kunlun also ran through as the savior and ultimate lover of Allure.
The most unlucky thing is, of course, the ghost wolf played by He Xin has become Kunlun's auxiliary role because of his weak relationship with Guangming and Allure.
However, fortunately, the script has a comprehensive copy of the formation process and character transformation process of the ghost wolf, and compared with the four main characters, his character image and story are more comprehensive and three-dimensional.
The ghost wolf is a death-scared snowpiercer who is mortally wounded and can only survive with the help of a magic robe. The robe gave him the ability to fly and travel through time, at the cost of his dignity and being imprisoned in the robe for the rest of his life.
He traveled through time, saved Kunlun's life, and started Kunlun's awakening process through the speculation of desire, running, and speed. He cares about friendship and asks for flowers and armor for Kunlun, and under the persecution of Wuhuan, he needs to choose between armor and black robes, facing the dilemma of friendship on the one hand and life on the other.
finally realized before he took off his black robe that he was not sorry for anyone, and the most sorry was for himself.
The pity of the ghost wolf is that he is just afraid of death and greedy for life, but he is burdened with the burden of extermination. This moral pressure made him feel sorry for the people of Snowpiercer.
The sad thing about him is that his robes, conscience, and cowardice make him struggle with flight and struggle, unable to break free. It is also such a tangled character, who has a pursuit of the meaning of running, and a deeper reflection on survival and hope. This also gives the ghost wolf the function of enlightening Kunlun.
From the point of view of the integrity and logical self-consistency of the character, this is far from being comparable to the brightness of the pre-endowed character and Allure, and it is not comparable to Wuhuan's far-fetched reason for attributing his mistake to being deceived by Allure in Girlhood.
It's just that the relationship between the ghost wolf and Kunlun in the script seems to hide an emotional line, and because of the relationship between "Lan Yu", He Xin is particularly sensitive to this kind of ambiguity.
If taken literally, the ghost wolf showed his love for his compatriots rather than erotic love to Kunlun out of guilt for his fellow clan.
But this kind of love is vague and ambiguous, especially the line that the ghost wolf said when he said goodbye to Kunlun at the end: It's like you don't know when you're going to fall in love with someone.
This sentence can be understood as the ghost wolf said to Kunlun, saying that Kunlun fell in love with Allure, and at the same time, it can also be understood as the ghost wolf saying to himself, saying that he fell in love with Kunlun.
When discussing the script before the start-up, he asked Director Chen about this question, but Director Chen just smiled at him weirdly, and then let him understand.
When he heard this answer, he almost replied on the spot: You are a screenwriter, you are a director, and then you let me understand it myself? Understand your sister!
At first, he really thought that Director Chen was playing tricks, thinking that he was famous with "Lan Yu" back then, and he was often shouted "rotten fish, rotten fish" by fans in Europe in the first two years.
"Wu Ji" has investment from overseas filmmakers to pursue overseas markets, and at the same time, MLGB has been prevalent in the white left in recent years. Since Director Chen chose to play the role of the ghost wolf, he wanted to carry some elements of male love.
But as he studied the characters more and more, he became more and more confused, whether the ghost wolf was out of love for Kunlun, or really in love with Kunlun, or was the boundary between the two loves originally blurred?
Seeing that this scene was going to be filmed tonight, he still didn't figure it out. But if you want to understand that there is a way to act, you can also act if you don't understand it, and substitute your emotions into the characters, maybe the ghost wolf didn't figure out this problem until he died.
In tonight's scene, although Xie Qiwang's performance in the first two scenes was not good, after Chen Dadao's patient adjustment, Xie Qiwang finally improved, and he gradually got better.
Especially when Zhang Dongjian appeared to save He Xin from him, and pressed him to the ground, grabbed his throat, and forced him to let go of He Xin and hand over the flower armor, I saw that this thing calmly stretched out his finger and put it to his mouth, and then raised his eyebrows, as if he usually pretended to be forced and said: "Do you still need to say it?"
is a comedic effect with the characteristics of a stage play, and even Director Chen couldn't help but stand up and applaud. This may be the first time he has been applauded by the director from the bottom of his heart since filming, and when he got up from the ground, he obviously looked overjoyed.
In fact, the way King Xie forced him to laugh was still very pleasing to the eye, and the unruly and unruly who was originally cool disappeared from him without a trace, but he looked like a big boy next door.
Speaking of pretending to be forced, in He Xin's eyes, Mr. Chen, a good friend of King Xie Qi, is definitely more fresh and refined than he pretended, and looks even more unruly.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Zhang Baiju later added some environmentally friendly colors to his head.
"Wow, it's so hilarious!"
Just as everyone was applauding King Xie with Director Chen, the voice of a male duck sounded.
Zhang Baiju clear soup noodles, long hair shawl, a tight white shirt on the upper body, a pair of red cropped pants underneath, and a pair of flip-flops on his feet walked in from the outside, and at the same time laughed at them: "I'll take a look, okay?"
"Welcome, Cecilia!"
Of course, Director Chen welcomed it happily, because this was the first time she appeared on the set without her own role.
Then, Director Chen announced: "Everyone rest for ten minutes and prepare for the next scene." ”
As he spoke, he deliberately winked at He Xin and said, "Xiao He, it's up to you next." ”
The next scene in Director Chen's mouth is probably the most important scene of He Xin in the whole film, this is a rivalry between him and Zhang Dongjian and Xie Qiwang, but the eyes of this scene fall on him, Xie Qiwang and Zhang Dongjian are just helping him play.
"Wow, new brother, I haven't seen you act, such a coincidence, just let me see the demeanor of the actor!" Zhang Baiju heard Director Chen's words, and also walked over with a smile.
Usually when she is on the set, this woman is more Xie Qiwang together, after all, it is Fengzhi Lian at this time!
But at this time, Xie forced Wang to be busy changing clothes, and she was not familiar with Zhang Dongjian, so she could only come to him.
Although the first time the two met and chatted was quite speculative, the two had almost no rivalry, and there were not many opportunities for contact. Today is also rare to see her face to the sky and not wearing costumes.
He Xin glanced at her, don't look at her as thin and small, but she is quite fierce.
In fact, after this period of observation, He Xin obviously felt that the rumors about her from the outside world before were not groundless, and there must be big names. It's like when she walks over now, she looks at the crew members who greet her with a smile and a smile. There is also the fact that she often makes various requests to the crew, and the staff also has a lot of complaints about her in private.
"White juice, sit!"
He stood up and gave way to the special chair with his name written in white paint on the back.
Although everyone is used to calling her English name Cecilia on the set, He Xin is disgusted by one of them, and the other still feels that it is kind to call her Bai Juice.
However, although this woman loves to play big names, her true temperament is certain. For example, now when he saw He Xin give up his chair, he would not be very hypocritical and polite at all, and sat down directly.
At this time, Lu Xiao was very clever, and hurriedly let his little horse tie out.
The chair is high and low, but when He Xin sat down, it was just parallel to the woman in front of him, and it was generally high.
