Every director has his own style, especially those who have become famous, and they make movies, even if they don't tell you that they made them, but as soon as you watch the movie, you will immediately understand, oh, this is who made it.

But what's interesting is that when it comes to Guan Hu, it's hard to have a unified understanding.

Those who have seen his early films will think that this is a person who, like most directors of the sixth generation, focuses on the real society and tells stories in a relatively simple film language.

If you start watching his movies from "Bullfight", you will feel that this is a person who is good at integrating all kinds of deeper ideas into the comedy style, no matter how profound and amazing things are, they can be interpreted with laughter and scolding, but they can trigger the audience's tears outside of comedy.

To put it simply, he doesn't really have a set style.

As a result, his films have been dubbed "obviously impressionistic".

There is a description of what is called impressionism, in which directors experiment with a variety of new cinematography and editing techniques to depict the psychological state of their characters.

In fact, to put it bluntly, there is no fixed style, and I have been exploring and exploring, but the core of his movie is the characters and the psychological performance of the characters.

Purely from this point of view, it is indeed true, from Liu Chengqiang and Gao Ming in the early "Let's Get in the Car and Go", to today's Niu Er and Niu Tie Sturdy, all of them express the hearts of the characters through the plot.

And Zhang Bufan's understanding of Guan Hu is obviously much deeper than that of ordinary people, so he knows very well that the above description is not wrong, but it is not comprehensive enough.

In fact, Guan Hu never cared about the so-called fixed style, what he focused on was a story with its core, and he would use what kind of technique should be used to express it better, which led to the inconsistency of his style.

As for the performance of the characters, Guan Hu is also different from most other directors, his depiction of the characters and the psychology of the characters focuses on one point - dramatic reversal.

The reversal in the early stage is mainly focused on the protagonist, like the two protagonists in "Let's Get in the Car and Go", the contrast between the character's appearance and personality behavior, and the reversal between the character shown in the early stage and the final choice.

In the later stage, almost all the characters are reversed

In "Bullfighting", the protagonist Niu Er has reversed from the rogue in the early stage to the open-mindedness and persistence of the world later, and around him, it is also reversing all the time - the soldiers who oppose the war, and the common people who will take revenge for food...... These reversals in people's basic cognition make the theme of the movie more prominent and profound.

And in "Killing", Guan Hu has achieved this to the extreme, almost everyone has a huge reversal, and it is these extreme reversals that make this movie destined to make people cry after laughing.

Zhang Bufan also knows that in this upcoming new movie, Guan Hu wants to take this style one step further.

Of course, this style only appears in movies, and the extremely condensed story content within 2 hours, such a reversal will only make the plot more tense, but it is not suitable for TV dramas.

In China, TV series with 30 or 40 episodes, or even 70 or 80 episodes at every turn, through a large number of plot clips, suddenly appear such a reversal, which is more likely to make people uncomfortable, dramatic, and disgusted.

"So, the tone is the tone of the TV series, such as Dalin, which is the most 'positive', Erlin is the biggest reversal in the early stage, and Sanlin is the most gag, right?"

Zhang Bufan pinched the script, and in three days, the script was about to be turned over by him.

is not just looking at the role that belongs to him, that is, Keiji Koizumi, but looking at it throughout and analyzing it as a whole, because he knows that the movies he will make in the future will definitely be created on the basis of this script.

"Well, that's what it means. Guan Hu nodded, and then looked at Zhang Bufan in surprise, "Which language are you talking about?"

"Jinhai dialect, how is it, there is progress, right?" Zhang Bufan said with a smile.

According to "Teacher Xiao Dong", if you want to practice a certain language, the best way is to speak more! Well, isn't it very similar to what the foreign language teacher said when I was in school?

Therefore, in the past few days, whenever he arrived at the crew, Zhang Bufan's speech changed, and he spoke "Zhang's Jinhai dialect".

"I don't hear it, you must have a taste. Guan Hu shook his head and said: "Anyway, it's going to start in less than a week, you can do it yourself, if you can't figure out this accent by then, you just wait for the time to read a sentence in front of the whole crew, Xiao Dong will read a sentence on the side, you can learn a sentence." ”

Zhang Bufan gave him a middle finger, and then said, "Get down to business." What are the main scenes of this movie? This part of Pingbei City? This street? Or is it?"

Guan Hu raised his hand and pointed to the most luxurious restaurant on this street, which was also the most painstaking decoration by their crew, "That's it, at most, the street outside is gone." ”

"Hey. Zhang Bufan Yile, "Everyone is getting bigger and bigger, but when you get here, why are you getting smaller and smaller? It was still a village before, but now there is only one building left?"

"It's the essence that is concentrated, you know?" Guan Hu said.

"Phew, why don't you just run the train with your mouth full. Zhang Bufan pursed his lips disdainfully, and then said: "In a restaurant, who can there be?

"In this restaurant, there must be a wine girl. Guan Hu added.

"What about that, do you still want them to dress up as men?" Zhang Bufan said: "Set one first, let's Erlin, in the TV series, he is a cook, so continue to be a cook in the movie?"

"Yes. Guan Hu nodded.

"What about the other two? Zhang Han and the shopkeeper, and Bo'er as the junior?" Zhang Bufan said again, and then shook his head, "I don't think it's right, their identities should be equal to some extent." ”

Guan Hu raised his hand and nodded at him, which meant "you know me".

"Oh yes. Zhang Bufan suddenly said: "You have watched "No Man's Land", what do you think of the killer that Bo'er played there?"

"What can you do, two words, awesome!" Guan Hu said, this is not a boast, but really awesome, the image of the killer completely breaks through any image that Huang Bo has played in the past.

"Then, why don't you let him do it again?" Zhang Bufan said: "Killers are not suitable, but robbers and robbers can?"

Guan Hu lowered his head and pondered for a while, and finally nodded, "I'll see it." ”

"In the end, Zhang Hanhe's role. It should be positive, but it is not the kind of normal positive ......" Zhang Bufan thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Hey, you say, if there is a singer in the restaurant, the actor is still that kind of positive ......"

"Hey!" Guan Hu's eyes lit up, and he just finished praising Huang Bo for his awesomeness, and at this time he gave Zhang Bufan a thumbs up, "You are awesome!"
