Chapter 482: "Farewell My Concubine" is released
Cinema, screening room.
Xiao Yang and Yuan Chiling sat next to each other, waiting for the movie to start. Originally, "Farewell My Concubine" was going to report the premiere in the capital, but because of Mei Kaizhi, the premiere was canceled.
This screening hall is only filled with about 70% of the people, and there is no way to compare it with "Counter War" next door, which is full.
The premiere of "Counter War" was held as scheduled, and the word of mouth was very good, so it was full. The audience now thinks that "Counter War" should be able to win the Mid-Autumn Festival box office championship.
In fact, it is true, the box office pre-sale is the first, and now the popularity is so hot, it seems completely unreasonable not to take the first place.
If it weren't for the popularity of Xiao Yang and others, coupled with Xiao Yang's publicity at the Mid-Autumn Festival party, "Farewell My Concubine" probably wouldn't even have the current attendance rate.
Because, Peking Opera is a big unpopularity!
After all, there are only a few people who know Peking Opera, and there are also a few people who like it, so of course there are few people who watch it.
In the screening room, everyone was eating and talking about "Farewell My Concubine".
"No matter how others spray "Farewell My Concubine", I support it anyway, Mr. Xiao's script has never disappointed me. ”
"That's right, I don't believe that "Farewell My Concubine" is a big hit. ”
""Counter War" is just a high investment and many gimmicks, which may not be better than "Farewell My Concubine". ”
There are actually many people in the screening hall who are die-hard fans of Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang was very moved.
Yuan Zhiling looked at Xiao Yang, "It seems that you have a lot of fans in the capital." ”
Xiao Yang smiled, "That's right, I'm a big star." ”
Yuan Zhiling glanced at Xiao Yang, "It's really stinky and beautiful." ”
Xiao Yang just wanted to speak, Yuan Zhiling said, "I watched yesterday's party, it was very good, and my mother liked the song "Woman Flower" very much. ”
Xiao Yang said, "It's good if my mother-in-law likes it." ”
Yuan Chiling was happy, "Your face is so thick-skinned." ”
While the two were chatting, the movie began.
At the beginning of the movie, two people walk through the passage of an indoor basketball court, both of whom are wearing costumes. One of them is Cheng Dieyi played by Su Muye, and Duan Xiaolou played by Lu Feng. Lu Feng is a first-line actor and one of Jiang Hua's queen actors.
The camera cuts, and the two come to the basketball court.
"What for?"
"Well, the Peking Opera Company is here to walk on stage. ”
"Oh, it's you?"
"Huh?"
Duan Xiaolou played by Lu Feng was puzzled.
"I'm a fan of the two of you, you two haven't sung together for more than 20 years, right?"
"Twenty-one years. Lu Feng (Duan Xiaolou) thought for a while and said.
"No, it's been twenty-two years. Su Muye (Cheng Dieyi) said.
"Yes, twenty-two years. Lu Feng (Duan Xiaolou) said: "Our brothers haven't seen each other for ten years. ”
"It's eleven years. Su Muye (Cheng Dieyi) reminded again.
"Well, yes, it's eleven years. Lu Feng (Duan Xiaolou) said.
"It's all wanton, I understand. The man who guarded the stadium said.
"Isn't it? Lu Feng (Duan Xiaolou) said.
"Now it's fine. ”
"Isn't it...... It's good now...... It's ......"
"Wait, I'll turn on the lights for you. ”
"You're affected. Lu Feng (Duan Xiaolou) said.
At this time, everything in the lens became pitch black, and a beam of light shone down from the sky, enveloping only Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou.
Tuk Tuk ......
The sound of clapping sounded, and the strong atmosphere of Peking Opera was suddenly presented in front of the audience.
Four big red characters appeared on the big screen - Farewell My Concubine!
The scene at the beginning has actually attracted the audience, and everyone is curious why the two brothers have not seen each other for more than ten years.
Now, the movie has officially begun.
The film tells the story of the winter of 1924, when 9-year-old Xiaodouzi was cut off by his mother and entered the Guanjia Opera Troupe to learn drama after his mother cut off the deformed finger on his right hand.
Little Bean's mother was a prostitute.
In the drama troupe, only the senior brother Xiaoshi, that is, Duan Xiaolou played by Lu Feng, sympathizes with and takes care of Xiaodouzi.
Time flies, and ten years have passed.
In the past ten years, under the strict and cruel training of Master Guan, the acting skills of the two brothers have been improved. Their co-starred "Farewell My Concubine" exploded in the capital, and the two brothers became smash hits instantly.
In private, the two agreed to co-star in "Farewell My Concubine" for a lifetime.
Later, Duan Xiaolou married a prostitute and a female Juxian (played by Zhou Mo), who was also a first-line actor and one of the three generals under Jiang Hua.
In order to congratulate the senior brother, he was deeply attached to the senior brother's butterfly clothes, and came to the senior brother's residence with a heavy heart, and gave the senior brother the precious sword that the senior brother had longed for for a long time.
This sword, which he bought in exchange for humiliation, was played with by an official!
After sending the sword, Cheng Dieyi decided not to co-star with Duan Xiaolou in "Farewell My Concubine".
But later, under the call of Master Guan, the two brothers still worked together again.
Seeing this, the audience has been completely attracted by the plot, and is deeply attracted to Cheng Dieyi.
After the end of the Anti-Japanese War, the two were forced to sing to a group of undisciplined and high-quality national soldiers, Duan Xiaolou clashed with the soldiers, Juxian miscarried in the chaos, and the conflict was not over, and then Cheng Dieyi was arrested on the charge of traitor.
The audience's hearts all hung in the air.
As soon as the camera changed, Duan Xiaolou went to rescue Dieyi, and begged Yuan Shiqing (Hu Zongyuan), a bureaucrat who had played with Dieyi, in a low voice.
This Hu Zongyuan is a second-tier actor, but his acting skills are good.
On the other hand, Juxian asked Cheng Dieyi to lie so that she could live, and showed Dieyi the note that Duan Xiaolou no longer sang with Dieyi (they also did this to save Cheng Dieyi).
However, Cheng Dieyi was always unyielding in the court, and just when the audience thought that Cheng Dieyi would definitely die, Cheng Dieyi was rescued by a high-ranking official, because the other party liked the play he sang.
Later, he was released.
Whether it is Cheng Dieyi or Duan Xiaolou, they are not taken seriously, because not many people like to watch dramas anymore.
Immediately afterwards, Cheng Dieyi tasted opium by mistake, and the deeper he fell, his voice became worse and worse.
Finally, during a performance, he broke his voice and decided to quit drugs.
After being tortured, with the help of Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou and his wife, he finally regained his strength.
Everyone thought that Cheng Dieyi's life would be better, but Cheng Dieyi was framed by Xiao Si, the child who was kindly adopted, Xiao Si forced him to take Yu Ji's place and perform with Duan Xiaolou, Duan Xiaolou boycotted the performance regardless of the consequences, Ju Xian persuaded him to act for the sake of the overall situation, and Duan Xiaolou finally performed.
Cheng Dieyi was heartbroken and broke off relations with Duan Xiaolou from then on!
Later, during that special period, Duan Xiaolou was also framed by Xiaosi and forced him to frame Dieyi, but Duan Xiaolou refused, so he was dragged to the street.
At this moment, Cheng Dieyi suddenly appeared, dressed as Yu Ji, and was willing to be humiliated with Duan Xiaolou!
The audience was shocked.
They were really shocked by Su Muye's performance.
Subsequently, Duan Xiaolou wanted to protect Ju Xian, but in desperation, he had to frame Cheng Dieyi, and even said that he was a traitor, Cheng Dieyi was in pain after hearing it, thinking that Duan Xiaolou only cared about Ju Xian, and thought that Ju Xian, whom he hated, was actually pitying himself and helping himself at the moment, so he vented all his anger on Ju Xian, and shook out that Ju Xian had been a prostitute.
Duan Xiaolou was forced to draw a line with Ju Xian because of this, saying that he had never loved Ju Xian, and Ju Xian hanged himself in despair!
After that special period ended, the two brothers performed "Farewell My Concubine" together for the last time on the stage after 22 years of separation, and Yu Ji sang the last sentence and killed herself with the sword he gave to Duan Xiaolou!
Cheng Dieyi ended her acting career in the arms of her senior brother Duan Xiaolou, and also ended her brilliant and tragic body.
This is the end of the movie.
The audience couldn't calm down for a long time after watching it, and many people were silent in sadness.
Yuan Chiling's tears couldn't help but flow out.
The audience finally knows the origin of the scene at the beginning of the movie.
