293. Adaptation and acting
In the original work, Hua Rong was not with Song Jiang, but went to Yingtianfu on an errand, but Li Kui, because Runzhou is close to Chuzhou, so it is the same as the plot, Song Jiang was worried that Li Kui would rebel, so he called him over to eat and drink.
When Li Kui was leaving, Song Jiang told him about it:
"If you go back to Runzhou, you will die. After you die, you can come here outside the south gate of Chuzhou, there is a Tatewa valley, the scenery is no different from Liangshanbo, and your ghost gathers. When I die, my body will be buried here. I've got it done. ”
After the two died, they were buried in Liao Erwa, according to the description in the book, Song Jiang entrusted the dream to Hua Rong and Wu Yong respectively, and asked them to "go to the tomb to see it in person".
Hua Rong and Wu Yong were restless after dreaming, so they came to take a look, and sure enough, they learned that Song Jiang and Li Kui were dead, and found Liao Erwa, the two of them wept sadly, and then hanged themselves in front of the grave, and finally they were buried here by their men.
And now according to the changes in the plot, although Hua Rong did not follow, but in the end he found himself and died by hanging, which also showed his loyalty, the process was different, but the result was still the same.
The last shot is that Zhao Xiaorui closed the door and put Li Xuedao on the bed, Ning Yuan leaned on the head of the bed, sat on the ground by himself, looked at Li Xuedao on the bed, Zhao Xiaorui said the words of liver trembling:
"Tie Niu is dead, and he is also a little ghost by my brother's side......"
In his eyes, he revealed the gentleness of this heavenly killing star for the first time.
This scene is over.
After announcing 'over' from the director, their applause and applause were different, and the three of Ning Yuan, who opened their eyes, were a little silent, as if they were two worlds from everyone over there.
Even if they are not actors, ordinary people can't calm down for a long time after watching a tragedy, and they have to be sad for a while, not to mention them who are deeply involved in the play.
And after the filming of this scene, the interior scene is over, and the rest are all exterior scenes.
After this scene, Ning Yuan suddenly found that he was starting to have a runny nose.
He hadn't been sick for a few years since he came back, but this time he was inexplicably sick.
First there was a runny nose, then a sore throat, and then I always felt hot in my body, but I didn't have a fever when I took my temperature, and my head was still a little swollen, in short, I was uncomfortable.
Ning Yuan guessed that he was probably infected by Li Xuedao - he caught a cold a day earlier, and Ning Yuan was with him in and out of the play for the past two days.
These days, Li Xuedao only sleeps two or three hours a day in order to adjust his state to fit the plot, although Ning Yuan is worried about his body, but it is not easy to persuade him.
It's been like this for a few days in a row, plus the weather is still very cold now, his resistance has become low, and several people in the crew have caught a cold recently, so it is estimated that they were infected, and then they were infected to Ning Yuan.
Viral influenza.
Once this thing spreads, as long as the resistance is slightly weaker, it will be hit, and Ning Yuan has been similar recently, the double toss of body and spirit, even if his physique, is inevitable.
However, Ning Yuan is not too worried, the general cold is only a week, and he has always felt that if there is no small symptom of a cold for a long time, such as a few years, it is not a good thing, although people's immunity is very strong, they also need these viruses to temper.
Including the doctor's advice for infants and young children, if it is a common cold, the symptoms are not too severe, try not to use antibiotics, you can recover on your own after a few days, and you can also enhance immunity. Even if you have a fever and it does not exceed 38 degrees Celsius5, try to use the method of 'drinking plenty of water and physical cooling'.
At first, Ning Yuan didn't take medicine, but it wasn't until his sore throat that he ate some bezoar detoxification tablets and drank some chrysanthemum tea.
He used to think this thing was very effective, every time his throat hurts, it almost doesn't hurt after eating it twice.
But it was on fire before, but this time it was a viral flu, and Ning Yuan didn't know if it would work, so let's make do with it.
There is no specific medicine for viral flu in general, and those drugs on the market are basically to relieve symptoms.
Earlier, Ning Yuan When they were young, they would cover their sweat with a quilt every time they had a cold, and if they sweated, they would get better soon, but there was a little bit, they should be dried immediately after sweating and pay attention to keeping warm, if they catch a cold again, it will be more serious.
However, Ning Yuan's scene is basically over, and then there are some reshooting shots, so you don't have to rush so much, you can take a break for the time being.
But in addition to Ning Yuan no longer staying up late and going to bed early every night, at other times, he either sorted out his experience written during the filming of this drama in the hotel, or went to the set to watch them film.
Because he made up his mind to study this drama hard, whether it was his own play or someone else's play, as long as Ning Yuan had time, he would record his feelings and experiences at that time.
Of course, this was taught to him by Li Xuedao.
Now that he has time, Ning Yuan began to sort it out, after all, he just learned it, the sooner he sorted out and reviewed, the better it would be to integrate it.
It's been a few years since he came back, Ning Yuan has also slowly adapted to handwriting, put it in his previous life, since a few years later, he will take his laptop with him wherever he goes, except for signing, he rarely uses his pen, and often forgets to write when he picks up the pen.
And Li Xuedao, because his physical fitness was not as good as Ning Yuan, he went to hang the hanging bottle for two days.
During this period, Ning Yuan accompanied him, and the crew laughed and said that Song Jiang was Song Jiang's follower in the play, and he was also a follower outside the play.
And Li Xuedao said very proudly: "Xiaoyuan is a good boy!"
Li Xuedao was lying there for infusion, Ning Yuan was sitting next to him writing and drawing, after Li Xuedao woke up, he saw his notebook and wanted to come over to take a look.
Looking at it, Li Xuedao couldn't help but nod.
"It's a good record, keep it up and you'll see that the improvement is very noticeable, as we've done before. ”
It was precisely because he had made rapid progress in this way that Li Xuedao had to let Ning Yuan do the same.
When reading it, Li Xuedao would also put forward his own opinions from time to time, and at first Ning Yuan would take it and write it and add it, but later Li Xuedao was troublesome and wrote it directly, which can be regarded as an annotation.
It's that they are often interrupted, after all, they are celebrities, and they will be recognized from time to time, and then they will inevitably be asked for autographs.
Therefore, after two days of infusion and feeling a lot better, Li Xuedao didn't go, and the two either discussed in the hotel or went to the set to watch others filming.
It's almost the same as before, when watching it, Li Xuedao first asked Ning Yuan how he felt, and then added it himself, and Ning Yuan recorded it.
In addition to discussing the performance, Li Xuedao will also tell Ning Yuan about some of the intentions and intentions of director Zhang Shaolin during filming, as well as the confirmation of the screenwriter's adaptation of this paragraph and the original work, what is the effect, and what is good.
Of course, sometimes they discuss problems and then discuss them with the director and screenwriter to make changes.
After a long time, when many actors have no roles, they will gather next to Li Xuedao and Ning Yuan, listen to their discussions, and also benefit a lot.
On this day, the scene where they filmed the ending on the side of 'Liangshan' was the personal scene of Ning Xiaozhi, who played Wu Yong.
The plot is also very simple, that is, Wu Yong held the urn of Song Jiang and the three of them, and returned to Liangshan from Chuzhou for burial.
Although the original work is written about Song Jiang, Li Kui and later Hua Rong and Wu Yong and their burial in Liao Erwa, coupled with the influence of the existing impression of ancient burial, it is not right to think that the cremation of the adaptation is a bug because of this.
In fact, cremation has a history of thousands of years in China, the earliest because of the war, many officers and soldiers died in distant places, so many bodies to bring back is simply unrealistic, if you want to go home for peace, you can only be cremated, and later evolved into a kind of praise for patriotic sacrifice.
However, it was really accepted by the general public in the Tang and Song dynasties.
One reason is the prosperity of Buddhism, which makes the people believe that they can go to the Western Elysium in this way, especially in the Song and Song dynasties, when Buddhism flourished in Bianjing, Hebei Province, Zhejiang, Fujian Province, and Sichuan Province, cremation was also highly accepted.
Again, because of this atmosphere, people from poor families will not feel that cremation is a shame, and in order to save money, they will also be buried in this way.
Finally, the influence of ethnic minorities, the Northern Song Dynasty poet Wang Yuyan's "Eastern Capital Affairs" recorded: "In modern times, the law of Yi was followed, and many cremations were rated. ”
Because of this atmosphere, many big cities at that time had crematoriums, called Huaren Field, and Lin'an, the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, reached sixteen at most.
In fact, from the time of Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, he ordered it to be banned, but it had little effect, and later Cheng Zhu Lixue began, they all wrote to prohibit it, which was still equivalent to a dead letter, and it was not banned until the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, especially in Liangzhejiang Road, even the rich were cremated as the pursuit.
However, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the science of science, which was not influential at the beginning of the Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty did not care at all, began to be carried forward, and the government ordered a ban on the grounds of cruelty, which was slowly abolished.
It also makes people speechless, at that time, it was not allowed to be burned, but it was to be burned, and now, let it be burned, it must be buried secretly.
Therefore, in the late Northern Song Dynasty, cremation was not only not a bug, but also a fashion, and the poor chose it in order to save money and the rich to pursue bliss.
At this time, Ning Xiaozhi was sitting on the rickety ox cart, with a filial piety scarf on his head, holding Song Jiang's urn with a desolate expression, with Li Kui and Hua Rong beside him, his eyes were empty.
At this time, his makeup was also different from the spirit of him and Li Kui who went to find Song Jiang before, with gray hair and a haggard face.
There are no lines all the way, but the lonely and pitiful appearance makes people sad to watch.
In the middle, a scene was filmed of Wu Yong holding their urns and passing by the Broken Gold Pavilion.
Once, in order to accept Chao Gai, Wu Yong and Ruan's Sanxiong and others, Lin Chong joined the white-clothed Xiushi Wang Lun here, and it was also a necessary place to enter and exit Liangshan many times, taking the meaning of "brothers work together, and their profits break gold".
But now, everywhere the camera passes, there are broken pieces, and cobwebs flutter in the wind.
"Look, this is in stark contrast to the grand occasion when the heroes of Liangshan gathered back then. ”
Li Xuedao sighed: "Not only that, the three words of the Broken Golden Pavilion were originally the meaning of the gathering of brothers, and now the implicit meaning is that the brothers are no longer there, and the Broken Golden Pavilion will be abandoned." ”
Ning Yuan nodded.
In fact, after Liangshan, when the scene of conquering the world, the crew deliberately made this place deserted, not only here, but also in those places of the Juyi Hall, and specially caught some spiders, got some ashes, and scattered them everywhere, just to 'make it old'.
There is a cemetery in the back mountain of Liangshan, which is the burial place of the heroes of Liangshan before the separation.
Because it was winter, the grass and trees were withered and yellow, and it was also a desolate scene.
Before the start of filming, three tombs were prepared and a monument was erected, so I directly filmed the shot of Wu Yong burning paper money in front of the tomb.
There was still not a word, only the faint sound of burning, and the sound of the grave pressing paper money being blown by the north wind.
Ning Xiaozhi sat in front of the tomb calmly, fiddling with the burning paper money with a branch.
The old man who was driving the car sat on the ox cart behind Ning Xiaozhi with his waist bent, panting slightly, looking weak, and looking at Ning Xiaozhi's back with a complicated look.
"What do you think is the reason why he appeared?" asked Li Xuedao.
Ning Yuan groaned: "The next thing is that Wu Yong hangs himself in the Juyi Hall, this old servant will help him collect his body?"
Li Xuedao nodded: "Almost, in addition to this, through his face at this time, it means that Wu Yong's ending is the same." ”
Just like what Song Jiang said upstairs. Ning Yuan was stunned.
Ning Xiaozhi burned paper there silently, although it was quiet, but it still made people's eyes can't leave him.
Of course, his acting skills are great, he has won the third Chinese Drama Golden Lion Award, and he has also won the Plum Blossom Award, and he has performed dozens of dramas, in addition, before 2015, he participated in at least three or four TV series every year, although most of them are supporting roles, but as long as they appear, the audience will not ignore them when they watch it.
Even Yang Mi's soap opera "Midsummer Evening Sunny Day", in which he played Liu Kaiwei's follower Xie Chuang's father Xie Zhaohou and Qiao's treacherous director, he played a treacherous smiling tiger vividly, there is no harm if there is no comparison, and those who play with him are acting when they look at it, and he is that person.
Speaking of which, in this Water Margin, there are not a few people who have won the Golden Lion Award, Lei Gesheng who plays Tong Guan, and Wei Zongwan, who plays Gao Yu, won the first Golden Lion Award in 89, and Lei Kesheng also won the Plum Blossom Award.
Of course, Li Xuedao also won the Plum Blossom Award, and Zhou Yemang who played Lin Chong also won the Plum Blossom Award, and the Magnolia and Zuo Lin's drama awards also won it.
The same is true for Wang Weiguo, who played Lu Junyi, and won the Plum Blossom Award and Magnolia Award.
There are many such big names in Water Margin, of course, although there are many people who have not won awards, their acting skills are not inferior to them.
There is no other reason, it is hard work, and it may also be related to the solemnity of Zhang Shaolin and Ren Dahui's casting, and the high standard requirements.
Seeing the 'Lin Chong's Tomb' not far away in the cemetery, Li Xuedao suddenly sighed:
"Speaking of which, the previous adaptation of Lin Chong's death was very good, because I let Gao Yu go, and he was so angry that he vomited blood and died, that scene looked really worrying, but in this way, it was far more ironic than his death on the battlefield. ”
Ning Yuan also nodded:
"I also have a deep impression of that scene, the final death was too bleak, and we were on the other side because of the elation of being able to recruit an formed a great contrast, the camera also gave a shot of the armor on the wall, such a brave person, did not die on the battlefield, but it was such an ending, it was too embarrassing. ”
Li Xuedao said: "So, I cried there later, not acting, I really felt uncomfortable, good plot design can really mobilize the emotions of the actors." ”
Ning Yuan nodded again thoughtfully.
