Wong Kar-wai's film style is undoubtedly unique, he is accustomed to using a unique image language to show a certain highly abstract state of existence of people in the modern city, the kind of world without purpose, somewhat absurd, full of a sense of fatalism, he is good at creating a state, through a specific atmosphere, color, language style, actors' body movements, environment, etc.

This style narrates a feeling of urban alienation, a nostalgia for the past, and a variation from multiple perspectives. and an atmosphere of struggle, escape, wandering, and abstraction that wants to communicate with each other. And Wu Menglong's film style is different from Wong Kar-wai, he also likes to use some Wong Kar-wai-style ways, but in this regard, it is not as incisive as Wong Kar-wai does. In particular, Wong Kar-wai's language style, the kind of poetry that looks like aphorisms and drifts away, is full of literary and philosophical flavors.

These things can also be found in Wu Menglong's films, but it can be seen that this is what he is looking for but has not yet reached that height. But even to the extent that he has already achieved is already very popular, and his style is slowly taking shape, and it is not impossible to reach the heights of Wong Kar-wai in the future. And of course, every director has each director's specialty, and some of the favorite features in Wu Menglong's movies are also not found in Wong Kar-wai's films.

Film is the art of the director, and the style of a movie basically lies in the director, the same script, different directors can shoot different feelings. is like "Journey to the West", if it weren't for Ye Zheng staring, Ye Zheng wouldn't dare to guarantee what Cangshuiyue would make the movie look like. Ye Zheng admired Wu Menglong very much, and he had long had the idea of cooperating with him, and originally planned to talk to him during the film festival, but Wu Menglong had something to do a few days ago, and he only arrived in Yanjing today.

Ye Zheng thought about looking for him at the awards party again, but he didn't expect Wu Menglong to appear in their lounge. "I came here to look for you, I want to talk to you about the movie "Suzhou River", some time ago I heard a friend recommend it, only to know that there is such a movie, so I watched it. And then I just fell in love with it. Wu Menglong said: "I am very inspired by the shooting techniques and style of this film. ”

Ye Zheng smiled slightly, he was not surprised by Wu Menglong's words, when Lou Ye made the movie "Suzhou River", everyone said that this movie was very "Wong Kar-wai", and the style was very similar to Wong Kar-wai, and Wu Menglong was also in this style, so he would naturally be inspired. "As you know, this style is very similar to mine, so I was as excited and happy as if I had met my family. Then I met Director Hong the other day and talked to him about this style. Wu Menglong continued: "There is a harvest! However, Director Hong said that this film was actually filmed under your guidance, in which the use of lens light, including post-editing and production, is controlled by you. He told me that if I came to talk to you, it would definitely be very beneficial. ”

He smiled and said, "So I came uninvited." "I see. Ye Zheng said with a smile. "Hmm. Wu Menglong nodded: "Speaking of the editing of this movie, after analyzing it with the editors of our crew, I am really amazed by practice, in the movies of the past few years, in terms of editing skills, there is no one who can surpass this movie! Especially the opening paragraph is too ingenious!" Ye Zheng nodded lightly, the editing of "Suzhou River" is indeed superb, so that some netizens in the previous life sighed: "More than ten years have passed, and no one has been able to beat the editing of the opening of Suzhou Creek." ”

"I've heard of your name for a long time, and it's not an exaggeration to describe it like thunder, but when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation, and it was a dragon and phoenix among people!" Wu Menglong looked at Ye Zheng carefully and exclaimed.

Ye Zheng said politely: "Mr. Wu has won the award, I am just a junior, and there are still many places to learn from Mr. Wu's predecessors, and I also highly respect Mr. Wu's movies." If I have the chance, I really want to cooperate with Mr. Wu!" "I also have this intention, there are still many places I want to ask you about the filming of the movie!" Wu Menglong said.

"Don't dare to be. Wu Menglong shook his head lightly: "Originally, I had a limited understanding of you, and I just thought that your script was very well written, but when I saw "Suzhou River" and stopped Director Hong's words, I came to you with great emotion, thinking that you and I probably have the same movie concept." But I chatted with Director Cang for a while just now, and I realized that you actually participated in the filming of "Journey to the West", and I just watched this movie today, which is completely different from "Suzhou River", which shows that your style and concept of the movie are diverse......"

He sighed softly: "It's really amazing, it can be seen from "Suzhou River" and "Journey to the West" that your grasp of these two styles has reached a fairly mature level, it's too hard to imagine, how can a person master two styles that are so different at the same time, not to mention how old you are......" Xiao Qi chuckled on the side: "If Mr. Wu understands his achievements in music, he must not be too emotional, these are all trivial matters." ”

"That's right. Cangshuiyue also smiled lightly, she had been in contact with Ye Zheng for a year, and she was also impressed by the talent of this little boss. For example, this "Journey to the West", if she is allowed to shoot it herself, she will definitely not be able to shoot this effect. During the filming process, she also had disputes with Ye Zheng because of some places, but most of the time, it was Ye Zheng who persuaded her. And she had to admit again and again that Ye Zheng's method was better than she thought.

Wu Menglong was stunned, and then suddenly, the person in front of him was a ghost, his musical talent spanned ancient and modern, and he mastered various types and styles of music skillfully in his hands...... He is a creator who does not stick to a specific style. If that's true for music, why can't it be true for movies?

But think about it again, you are already so unreasonable in terms of music, how can you be unreasonable in terms of movies? This is too unreasonable, right? However, Ye Zheng touched his nose and agreed with Xiao Qi's words: "What Xiao Qi said is right, in fact, Mr. Wu, I have just stepped into the film and television industry, and in the future, I am afraid that there will be many different types and styles of movies and TV series to come out!"

"This, uh, okay!" Wu Menglong said helplessly: "Then I look forward to you also bringing a storm to the film and television industry, these years, high-quality movies seem to be getting more and more difficult to produce, everyone is waiting to see good movies! "What's your idea? Tell me, the main thing is that you think there's something flawed. "Then I'll tell you about it. Ye Zheng was not polite, thought about it and began to say: "I think one of the flaws of this movie is that you seem to be trying to expound an emotional thing, it may be philosophical, it may be thinking, but your elaboration is not incisive enough......"

Ye Zheng and Wu Menglong chatted, he had watched several of Wu Menglong's movies, so he knew more about his movies. Ye Zheng said bluntly when he spoke, and found out some of the imperfections in Wu Menglong's movie. Of course, although Ye Zheng has mastered so many movies, his own film concept is actually very fragmented. It's just that when he was in college in his previous life, he took a few elective courses in film and read a lot of books on this subject, and now the content of these books is also deeply imprinted in his mind, which contains a variety of film styles. Among them is Wong Kar Wai style.

So Ye Zheng recalled what he had seen, and at the same time said his own opinions, in fact, he already has a certain level now, if he takes the script to film, it is no problem, but time does not allow him to soak in a movie.

With Ye Zheng's narration, Wu Menglong gradually became fascinated, and many of Ye Zheng's words inspired him. He has been looking for a certain style, a certain way of expressing cinematic art. Although his achievements have been recognized by the outside world, he himself feels that there is still a lot of room for improvement.

However, it was like a bottleneck, and he couldn't find a breakthrough on his own. However, Ye Zheng's words were like a pair of hands suddenly clearing the dark clouds above his head for him, revealing the blue sky and white sun. "I think what you want to express can be characterized as a more abstract sense of reality, using some fragmented environments, things, and seemingly messy stories to express a concept, which is not necessarily specific to a certain point. But we can find it in reality. A lot of people use movies to reflect reality, but you don't take the traditional route, you reflect through representative stories and so on. When the audience watches your movie, they think of themselves, most likely because of a detail, a fragment, or a sentence or two. Ye Zheng said.

"Yes, yes!" Wu Menglong nodded again and again, feeling like he had found a confidant, and he was excited. "But it's a pity that you haven't done a good enough job of dealing with some details and clips. Ye Zheng said bluntly: "So, it will lead to a ...... Feeling of constipation. "Poof!" Xiao Qi, who was drinking water, squirted out a mouthful of water. But Wu Menglong nodded solemnly: "Yes, you said a lot, what do you have any opinions on this?" Ye Zheng briefly said some of his own opinions, giving Wu Menglong some inspiration, and Wu Menglong admired Ye Zheng more and more in his heart.

If he didn't see Ye Zheng, he would never believe that a person who is invincible in music can still have such profound insights in movies. And it's not just one...... The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became.
