Chapter 111: Premiere

In September, Liu Sisi spent 50,000 yuan, happily put on a small schoolbag, and went to the Chinese opera advanced class.

Her family lives near the school, attending classes during the day and going home at night, walking around the campus every day, looking at those young students, not to mention how happy the old aunt of eight or seven years is.

The bald brother is still thinking about his plan to make a fortune, and he has planned and written several books, but he lacks some capital, and he is so anxious that he scratches his head every day.

Zhou Jin was a little more idle, moved back to the dormitory of the sugar man, read the script every day, and pondered the characters.

Jian Yu made a breakthrough in the martial arts movies of the Celestial Empire, pulling those martial arts people with high martial arts skills into the daily trivialities.

While paying attention to the inner world of the characters, it can ensure the logic and excitement of the story, which is also commendable.

Lei Bin, one of Blackstone's killers, is armed with double stabs and flying needles, which can be seen as a combination of Ake and Di Renjie.

There is output, there is displacement, it can be attacked from a distance, and it can be melee combat, but the body is too brittle, and it is easy to be cut to death by the soldier's sudden face.

Although he is engaged in the high-risk profession of killer, the boss (Wheel King) does not buy insurance or raises wages.

So he decided to quit his job and start a business, took his wife, and returned to his hometown to open a noodle restaurant.

Before resigning, the boss gave him the last project, saying that he would resign when he was done.

After setting up this kind of flag, the final outcome is naturally that you can't die anymore.

Zhou Jin analyzed these characters, wrote them down one by one, and then designed the actions, demeanor and lines according to the script.

In fact, the script is written very generally, and how to present it depends on the ideas of the director and actors.

For example, there is such a sentence in the script: Lei Bin squatted on the roof and looked at Zeng Jing.

Zeng Jing's original name was Drizzle, and she was also one of Blackstone's killers, hiding incognito in the market, which was the first meeting with Lei Bin after her identity was exposed.

With such a simple sentence, Zhou Jin had to repeatedly ponder Lei Bin's psychology at that time.

How should he squat down, whether he is careless, or sneering gloomy, what is his demeanor, is it the surprise of the old people, or the helplessness of the old friends and enemies.

It is the details of these performances that make up a living character.

Lei Bin's role is not much, but there are also a lot, and the characters still have a certain struggle in their hearts, giving the actors enough room to perform.

Such a role is really suitable for an actor like Zhou Jin.

That night, Zhou Jin put down the script, took a shower, dressed neatly, and prepared to go to a movie.

Guan Hu was full of confidence and sent the bullfight to Venice, and the result was not bad, winning a Horizon unit award, nominated for Best Picture.

For such a rising star, the third master naturally spared no effort to support, so it was decided that "Bullfighting" would be jointly released by China Film and Woolen Media.

On this night, it was the screening ceremony of the bullfight, and in addition to the peers in the circle, a large number of media and film critics were also invited to prepare for a wave of momentum.

Zhou Jin, as a trotting trick, was also invited, Liu Sisi shouted to go and see, so he had to ask Guan Hu for a ticket.

The two agreed to meet at the entrance of the theater, Zhou Jin arrived early, and he didn't see Liu Sisi's figure when he waited left and right.

He didn't dare to go in first, so he had to squat at the door of the theater, looking at the poster like a New Year's painting in a daze.

On the poster, Huang Bo is wearing patched ragged clothes, leading a cow, twisting his head, looking at the audience outside.

Zhou Jin looked at the poster, and felt that Niu Er was looking at him, obviously very familiar, but the specific details couldn't be recalled for a while.

"Hey, why are you squatting here?" a familiar voice sounded.

Zhou Jin looked up and saw Liu Sisi standing behind him like a delicate magnolia.

"Why are you here?" Zhou Jin rubbed his knees, stood up and complained.

"I went to class all afternoon, and I went home to change my clothes," Liu Sisi glanced at him, "It's not like you, a big idler." ”

"Okay, okay, it's all open, let's go inside. ”

Zhou Jin pulled Liu Sisi and trotted into the screening hall, the lights had been turned off inside, and the voice of the dragon mark of the General Administration sounded.

In the first row, there were still two empty seats, and Yan Ni waved at him, "Come here." ”

The two of them ran over with their waists bent and sat down quickly, looking up at the big screen.

"People, where are all the people, old grandfather, Jiu'er ......"

Huang Bo's ugly face appeared on the screen, with a mouthful of yellow teeth, chapped lips, and blood stains, hair like a chicken coop, wearing dirty clothes, screaming in horror in the village.

The camera follows Huang Bo around the village, the old well at the head of the village, the loess paste wall, the grinding plate in the center of the village, and Zhou Jin's memories emerge one by one.

Huang Bo finally found the villagers, in a small valley, the mountains were full of charred corpses, and there was a lot of smoke.

In the middle of a pile of corpses, there was a female corpse in a red cotton jacket, with a bare lower body and a silver bracelet on her hand.

"Ah, ah~" Huang Bo cried all of a sudden.

The cruelty of the anti-Japanese period and the inhumanity of the Japanese army were completely displayed at this moment.

In the theater, there was a burst of restlessness, and it was obvious that everyone was stunned by the beginning of Guan Hu.

Zhou Jin looked at this scene, and familiar memories resurfaced.

He didn't know what the plot of the whole movie was, but he remembered that he seemed to be in it, playing the corpse.

On the small stage in the center of the village, the old grandfather sat on it, and the thirteenth uncle brought milk up.

"This milk is like a river, and it can't flow endlessly. Ancestor, do you say this was born by your own father?"

The old grandfather took the whip, waved his hand, and reprimanded: "Rats, everything is born here, and you fucking popped out of the cracks in the stones?"

The old man scolded angrily, Zhou Jin was happy when he heard it, and he remembered that he was standing behind at that time.

Although he was not given the camera, he really participated.

Oops, I don't know how this old man is doing now.

When I left, I said that I would buy him a pair of dentures, and I would definitely bring them with me next time I had time.

It is a very wonderful feeling to watch the movies he acts, those scenes, those characters, and those props, he has personally participated in and experienced them.

When I was filming at the time, I didn't know what it meant, but now that I saw the finished film, I suddenly realized.

He was switching back and forth between plot and memory.

Guan Hu cut the whole story into pieces, flashbacks and narratives, and alternated them, leaving enough suspense.

The audience's attention is gradually attracted by the story.

Before the arrival of the devils, the whole village was very peaceful, and Guan Hu showed one of the few humors.

"Have you ever touched that Ushinoko?"

"I haven't touched ...... so big"

"You just blow it, you haven't even touched the small one. ”

The villagers surrounded the cows to see the freshness, and Jiu'er, played by Yan Ni, quarreled with Uncle Thirteen for a mouthful of milk.

"The devil is coming, the devil is coming......"

Eight road warning, the villagers scattered and fled, Huang Bo led the little ox, walked around the village, and then tripped over the bomb at the entrance of the village.

Zhou Jin came to the spirit all of a sudden, damn, I'm finally going to play.

"Fellow, what are you doing here, it says on it, people and animals should not approach. On the screen, he was wearing an Eighth Route military uniform and leading a little donkey to the stage.

Huang Bodao: "Do you know how to read, people have told me, this is an eight, and you are still an eight." ”

"Hey, you're a very interesting fellow," Zhou Jin squatted down, "Come, I'll tell you." ”

He picked up a branch and drew it on the ground, "People are together, eight are separated, people add one horizontal and read big, and add two horizontal thoughts of heaven." ”

"If it's an eight, what kind of addition is it?" asked Huang Bo with interest.

"Eight, then I don't know, anyway, you just remember that people are separate, and eight are together. No, it's the other way around......" Zhou Jin himself was confused.

"Hahaha......" In the theater, a burst of laughter came.

Especially Liu Sisi smiled the most, she patted Zhou Jin's shoulder vigorously, I didn't think you could still play Tubalu?

Zhou Jin also laughed, but he was not amused by the lines, but smacked out something new.

When he said this line at that time, he felt that something was wrong, and there seemed to be some hidden meaning in it.

This time I sat in the theater and was a spectator, but I could see it clearly:

Eight is separated, people are combined, people add one horizontal mind, eight plus one horizontal, then it is called Army Day.

The story continues, Balu left the cow behind, and Niu Er was forced to take on the heavy responsibility of raising cattle.

This heavy responsibility lasted from the War of Resistance to the liberation.

A man and a cow met devils, defeated soldiers, bandits who wanted to breed, and refugees who drank milk and wanted to eat meat.

persisted until the end, and Zhou Jin finally appeared again.

This time he rode a horse and returned with the PLA.

"This cow, your~" Huang Bo has long hair and beard, looks like a savage, and he can't even speak.

He took out the paper contract of the year, and returned it to the People's Liberation Army along with the cows.

"Fellow, this is a combat team, and we can't take in cattle. I'll be the captain of the rules, and I'll give you this cow, okay?"

Zhou Jin looked at himself on the screen, and then looked at Huang Bo, feeling that he was instantly turned into scum in seconds.

No wonder people can win the actor, this is really real acting.

Watching the movie in the theater, the atmosphere will be rendered exceptionally well, and all the audience's attention will follow the plot without worrying about being interrupted.

Therefore, at this time, there are already low tears, secretly wiping tears.

"Don't be afraid, huh, huh...... Anything can pass. ”

Niu Er returned to the mountain, took the big cow named Jiu'er, and let out his last sigh.

With muffled music, the movie ended, the lights came on, and the audience applauded.

The audience was very excited, watching several main creators, Guan Hu, Huang Bo and Yan Ni, come to the stage and bow constantly, "Thank you, thank you." ”

"Aren't you going up?" Liu Sisi wiped the corners of his eyes and asked.

"What am I doing up there?" Zhou Jin took out a wrap of tissues from his pocket and handed it to her.

Liu Sisi patted him, "What are you doing for me, hum, I didn't cry." ”

After that, the reporters asked questions, and the creators answered, saying that the shooting was very hard and everyone must come to support.

"Thank you Director Guan Hu for bringing us such a wonderful movie, I want to ask, why is that cow called Jiu'er, is there any hint?"

A reporter stood up and asked.

Guan Hu stood on the stage, a big man of 1.9 meters, two heads taller than Yan Ni and Huang Bode, looking very funny.

He pinched the microphone, thought for a while, and said, "Actually, Jiu'er and the cow are both a symbol of women in the Celestial Empire. The old grandfather said that everything is born here, which is probably what it means. ”

"What does that conversation between Niu Er and Balu mean? Eight plus one horizontal?" the reporter asked again.

"Then you have to ask Niu Er and Balu. Guan Hu kicked the ball to Huang Bo.

This kind of question is clearly a pit, Huang Bo is very fine, and said with a smile: "What do you say?"

Liu Sisi didn't understand, and poked Zhou Jin, "What do you mean?"

Zhou Jin said casually: "Think about it, what is eight plus one?"

"Nine," Liu Sisi was stunned for a moment, and understood, "Jiu'er's nine?"

Zhou Jin nodded, looked at Liu Sisi, who was very excited, and said in his heart, this is probably what it means, who knows?
