Ding Cheng slowly stood up, took two steps back, and bowed deeply again, thanking his seniors for their guidance and expectations.

If there is no system, we can't go today, as the seniors who met for the first time, it is a great blessing to be willing to share the detours we have taken before.

Cheng Daoming can see that the young people in front of him have a kind of calmness in their hearts, not about identity and fame, but about the persistent pursuit of a certain career, which is the shining point of appreciation.

"In this life, every human being has two births, one is the physical birth and the other is the awakening of the soul. ”

"At that time, I ushered in a second life, and I found that I could let go of the desire for fame and fortune, and I didn't have to cater to anyone telling lies and clichés. ”

"After that period of testing, I asked myself if I could live happily even if I became nothing in the future. ”

Cheng Daoming saw that Sister Hua wanted to interject several times next to him, and explained with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not persuading this kid to give up his job, but teaching him another actor's cultivation and realm." ”

"To give you an example, in 02, Gao Xiaosong filmed My Heart Flying, and one of the scenes required my character to be injured by the river, lying on a small boat, and swaying ashore by the oars. ”

"The director was thinking about making the picture look good, and there had to be a sunset to make the river very bright. At that time, there was no condition for the crew to wait for the sun to set, so they filmed other scenes on the mountain first. When the sun set, the cameraman ran to the bridge with the machine on his shoulder. ”

"I ran to the river in one go, turned my head and asked, "How big is my head?" The cameraman shouted at the top of his voice: 250!"

"What is the concept of depth of field at 250 focal length? If you don't control it well, the picture will definitely be empty. At that time, I didn't know what was going on, but Fu Ruzhi just lay down on the boat and started acting with the oars tilted. ”

"The picture is set on the sparkling river, such a good shot, fleeting, once the body movements are too big, the actors will definitely paint, and as soon as the sun sets, it will all be smashed. ”

At that time, the crew had a limited budget and had no chance to try and make mistakes, so Xiaosong sat in front of the monitor and sweated all the time. The amazing thing is that the whole long shot is down, and I can actually make people and paddles go along the screen. ”

"No matter how you climb or turn over, people are in the painting. A few minutes of long shots, a whole line down, he knelt at that time!"

"Actually, he didn't notice it at the time, I swung the oar in my hand a few times, and my intuition told me that the director should almost cut it here, and everything was smooth sailing, even I didn't expect it. ”

"When acting in "Black Hole", entrepreneur Nie Mingyu was secretly a boss, but he was a social deformity in his bones. ”

"In order to give the characters a sense of historical depth, I designed a mask prop by myself, and every time I went out to commit a crime, I would wear a mask. ”

"Because masks were a must-have item in the sixties and seventies, a simple prop that hinted at the character's past. Deepening the sin in Nie Mingyu's heart, I asked the crew to build a secret room for me, and often played accordion music with a sense of age in it. ”

It not only shows the traces of the character's past, but also embodies the darkness in the character's heart, making the audience feel real and credible. ”

Pointing to the second floor, he said, "Now I still have a big room, and I play the piano every day facing the window, which is the process of my own dialogue with my heart." ”

"There's also a room dedicated to candy men, noodle men, carpentry. Sugar Man and Noodle Man were my daughter's favorites when she was young, and I often made one or two when I was idle and gave her as a gift. ”

"When you go abroad, tell her: first, Dad wants you to be healthy, second, he wants you to be happy, and third, try to study hard. ”

"One year she called and said she wanted a LV bag, and I said very bluntly, "Do you want a bag, or do you want that designer label?"

"If you just want a bag, Dad can make one for you. ”

"Hey, I'm also drunk when I meet someone like you!"

Sister Hua couldn't help it, and complained: "Every time I finish filming a scene, I have to rest for a while." After filming "Hero", I remember you took a whole year off?"

"Later, Feng Xiaogang asked you to play Emperor Li in "Night Banquet", but you felt that you were repeating it to Kangxi and refused to accept it. ”

"Chen Kaige asked you to play "Mei Lanfang", and he didn't accept it if it didn't feel right. Later, Hu Mei's "Confucius" was also rejected......"

"I really don't understand what you're thinking?"

Cheng Daoming put down his chopsticks and said solemnly: "That's because the script must conform to my aesthetics and values, otherwise I won't act no matter how much money I give!"

"If we meet a good script, we would rather take less money, and then let the director find better actors, and everyone will work hard to make a good work. ”

"As long as it's a good show, you can give them a 5% discount, I don't want to monopolize so much production costs, filming not only costs money, but also face!"

Sister Hua sighed, she had nothing to say, she had been a stinky temper for so many years. The literati energy on his body, every time he is interviewed, he points to the key point, and he can't get off the stage in front of reporters.

I like to say that actors usually talk a lot of nonsense, and don't say anything about makeup when interviewed.

So now I rarely speak, because there are so many things I want to scold, I can't stop at all!

"Nowadays, when culture gives way to commerce, and all entertainment sinks to vulgarization, it seems that culture is talked about everywhere, but it is actually a garb of commerce, and everything is on par with money. ”

"When we were filming "One and Eight", in order to tan our skin, we could do nothing in the Dalongshan Reservoir and bask in the sun for a month. A small movie, the whole group filmed for more than half a year. ”

"At that time, it was called making movies, and now it is called money grabbing, which are completely two eras!"

Suddenly, he slammed the table and reprimanded loudly: "There are a lot of rags every year, although our technology was very rough back then, but we really wanted to create good works." There is also a little bit of style, a little arrogance, and a little bamboo spirit. ”

"And now?"

But as if remembering something, like a deflated ball, he sighed helplessly: "Especially when I was elected as the chairman of the Film Association, I am faced with all kinds of falsehoods and hype every day, and I am helpless in the world countless times, and I have no ability to change the status quo, even if it is a small range." ”

"I have stated myself again and again, but it will not improve the atmosphere of this era, and the people who chase interests will always wave their arms, and money is their worth pursuing. ”

"But I always believe that people don't have to do many good things in this life......"

"As long as you insist on not doing bad things, you can also have peace in the world. ”

In the end, I was happy, and I directly pulled Ding Cheng to the second floor, played the piano I liked every day, and sent it to the door in person when I left, and came to sit when I was free.

On the way back, Sister Hua said: "His image, just like the emperors, leaders, and intellectuals who often appear in film and television works, has been raised to a very high position, and young people keep a distance from him with a sense of awe." ”

"Especially after sitting in that position, few people are willing to film with so-called old-timers like them!"

Ding Cheng was deeply touched, not to mention Cheng Daoming's long-famous predecessors, even if it was himself, he was a little unaccustomed to it these days.

"So now young directors like to use small traffic and fresh meat, and they can easily earn exposure by clicking on it. Famous old directors like to use newcomers, cheap and obedient, let them do whatever they want, and the most important thing is to save money. ”

This is also why the actors in the middle are the most embarrassed, they can't go up and down, they can only be familiar in front of the audience, wearing the so-called star halo, and doing tricks. ”
