Chapter Eighty-Seven: But I'll Wait for You for the rest of my life

87. But I will wait for you for the rest of my life

When everything is done, the screening begins.

A huge dragon logo is reflected on the screen with a BGM of pedaling and kicking, and the blue calligraphy reads "Love of the Hawthorn Tree", and at the bottom is its English name - UNDER THE HATHORN TREE.

Director, producer, producer, screenwriter, photographer, etc. appeared one after another, and then the leading actors: Zhou Dongyu, Han Fei.

The members of the crew sat in the first and second rows in the center, watching their names engraved on the screen, Han Fei's heart unconsciously rippled, although he had also been in the "Slam Dunk Showdown" before, but this time the feeling was more profound.

Liu Yong said, "I don't regret it when the belt is getting wider, and I will be haggard for Yixiao", for this hawthorn tree, Han Fei completely broke with Tianyu, and similarly, he paid the most effort in this movie, from audition preparation to character analysis to three-month shooting, watching frame by frame pass in front of him, Han Fei just wanted all his efforts not to be disappointed.

Starting from the screen typing "This is a true story that happened in Wenge", a green and white minibus drove over the country road, with lush green roadside trees in the near corner, golden rape fields in the middle, and mountains in the distance, the colors are intricately mottled but extremely harmonious.

When the heroine appeared on the stage, the bottom began to discuss it carefully.

"Hey, this actress looks really innocent, a bit like the international chapter of the year. A buddy said to a friend next to him.

The friend nodded and said, "It's not as good-looking as Zhang Ziyi, but it does look comfortable, in China, in terms of the ability to pick actresses, Zhang Yimou said second, no one dares to admit first." ”

"This girl's life is really good, as soon as she debuted, she became the female number one in Zhang Yimou's movie, I'm afraid she won't become a movie queen in the future. ”

"You care so much, some people are born lucky, don't talk about it, watch the movie. ”

Simple villages, coarse cloth clothes, everything in "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" is so simple, even the main color of the picture is bleak, but the audience feels very comfortable at a glance, people, things, and scenery are so natural.

On the gentle hillside, layers of cultivated land are stacked like mille-feuille, and the tents of the geological exploration team are neatly stacked under the hillside, and the gurgling stream stretches all the way in front of them.

When Han Fei stepped on the strange stones in the stream with Huanhuan in his arms, and came to Zhou Dongyu, dressed in a windbreaker and work pants, he felt a little like a model.

"This is the schoolgirl writer from the city?"

"No, no, I'm not a writer, I'm a student at No. 8 Middle School, I'm here to write the history of the village, and I'll go back to help the teacher compile textbooks. ”

Han Fei smiled, showing his big white teeth, sunny and cheerful, and asked again, "You must write about that hawthorn tree." ”

"How do you know?" Zhou Dongyu smiled with shame.

"I guess. Han Fei smiled, hugged Huanhuan and walked around to Zhou Dongyu.

Surprised, amazed, surprised!

The actor impressed the public the most was the handsome guy Duanmu Lei who stared at a chicken nest, and the heroine was just an amateur.

"Is this the natural carving in the ancient poems, the two actors acted really naturally and harmoniously. ”

"I originally thought that Han Fei could only play the kind of handsome role, but I didn't expect that he could also control this kind of plain and introverted role. ”

"It's over, I'm infected by his smile, I used to think very deliberately when I watched him laugh in "Meteor Shower", but now it's very comfortable to watch. ”

"Nonsense, what kind of is "Meteor Shower", please invite a bent eighteenth-rate director, here is a national teacher, a director at the level of President Mountain, can the training ability be the same?"

The film continues to move, the background music is melodious, eloquent, the mountains are empty, the water is shining, and the people's hearts are rippling, and the plain lines are like continuous water droplets, ticking and ticking in people's hearts, it is not the kind of tear gas bombing in "Tangshan Earthquake", but using water grinding to pull people into that scene unconsciously.

In the pavilion by the river, in the light rain, the two complained to each other, there was no hysterical shouting to confess, but when they were snuggling up to each other for warmth, Han Fei said softly: "You may not have loved yet, so you don't believe that there is eternal love in this world, and when you fall in love with someone, you will know that there is such a person in this world, he would rather die than go back on you." ”

Once again, farewell and encounter, set off a new climax. In the pond, two people can play in the water freely, or lean against the wall, enjoy the joy of stealing a half day of leisure under the shade, when the sunlight is mottled from the gap in the board car, as if the two protagonists are reflected in the holy light, a gentle kiss, although it is only a side cheek, but it is like scratching the audience's heart with a dog's tail, sour, happy, numb, mixed tastes, that kind of resonance, instantly resounded in the hearts of countless people.

"I dare to say that if Zhang Yimou is allowed to shoot idol dramas, those half-people will be squeezed and have nothing to eat. ”

"I am really convinced, the two actors acted well, and the director had better control over the picture. ”

This is a more rational viewing evaluation, and the evaluation with fan filters is more intense and unrestrained.

"Boss, this play is fantastic. ”

"Tianyu is really a big pen, and he forced Maxima away alive. ”

"Agreed, Tianyu pure pen. ”

Zhang Yimou has adjusted a lot of structures, that is, the plain and simple narration method of moisturizing things silently, to follow up slowly, and follow the two newcomers with the feelings of the two characters. The audience also feels that they will slowly look into it in the future, and the kind of moving is not by crying and grabbing the ground, but the intensity that gives you is as if you don't know it, and you don't remember when your heart was touched.

Less is more, this sentence is the truth, Zhang Yimou gave up the details, but hit the hearts of the people more directly.

"In this way, walnuts, rock sugar, hawthorn nuts, sportswear, and rubber shoes were all given by Comrade Sun. ”

Xi Meijuan sat down on the edge of the bed, her eyes staring directly at the two protagonists opposite, Zhou Dongyu stood against the wall, trembling, his head hung very low, Han Fei sat on the rattan chair, holding a puff fan and shaking it in embarrassment, look, this is when the pig arched cabbage and was caught by the old farmer.

"Auntie, it's okay for you to call me Xiaosun. Han Fei said embarrassedly but politely.

"Don't call me Auntie, call me Teacher Zhang. "The pigs have come to arch the cabbage, what else can the farmer say, you don't have to be close.

"Get out. ”

The two younger brothers and sisters went out under Xi Meijuan's advice, and when they went out, they made a grimace at Zhou Dongyu, with a gloating expression of sister you pills today, so angry that Zhou Dongyu pouted, and his eyes were about to pop out.

"I'm not against free love, but I don't allow Jingqiu to fall in love, my husband is a rightist, and I am also in school labor reform, there is no future for a family like ours. ”

"Mr. Zhang, we may have different views on the future, I ......"

"Of course it's different, Jingqiu is in the period of becoming a regular, and the school may expel her at any time, I've already heard rumors, if you really want to be good to her, you won't care if you don't see each other for two years this year, right, our goals are the same?"

"Consistent, consistent. ”

From acquaintance to love, and then to Jingqiu's mother in the middle, the relationship between the two has not dissipated due to various turmoil, but is like a construction team ramming, the more blows they have received, the heavier they are, and the more determined their relationship becomes.

In the last scene, when Jingqiu came to the hospital wearing the big red coat agreed upon by the two, all she saw was the third child who was about to die, and on the hospital bed, the body of the third child was already decaying, and the special effects makeup made people unbearable.

In the camera, Zhou Dongyu's figure is so thin and weak, the lover in front of her is about to leave this world, on the ceiling, the only photo of the two of them records the frozen good years, she began to cry, the tears were silent at first, and then like a pouring rain slanted out, out of control.

"I'm Jingqiu. ”

"I'm Jingqiu. ”

"I'm Jingqiu. ”

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Jingqiu is here, I am Jingqiu, I am Jingqiu......"

In the picture, Jingqiu is crying, outside the picture, many people are secretly wiping their tears, not so deliberately, just quantitative changes cause qualitative changes, at this node, just a gentle push, all the hearts collapsed.

The picture is finally fixed on the hawthorn tree, and the subtitle reads, "The third child left, according to his last wishes, buried the ashes under this hawthorn tree, the third child's father said to Jingqiu, he insisted on burying it here, we are far away, so I entrusted him to you." After the end of the Wenge, Jingqiu went abroad to study, and later, this area became the reservoir area of the Three Gorges Reservoir, everyone moved away, and the hawthorn tree was also flooded......

Silence, a silence of thirty seconds, when the overhead lights came on, the audience looked around, tears faintly hanging on the faces of those around them, and later, a small burst of applause rang out, and finally converged into one, enduring.

Jingqiu is deeply loved by the third child, and she is happy. In that special era, Jingqiu's feelings were suppressed from beginning to end, and it wasn't until the third child left that he realized that he would never meet someone who loved him as deeply as the third child again.

And the third child is also happy, although the third child's life is short, but he has really loved, as long as a person has really loved, his life has not been in vain, and only if he has really loved, he will be willing to believe that there is true love in this world.

Zhang Yimou pieced together the memories so that the rhythm was very comfortable, and it also showed his mastery style in this delicate work, and the two actors also perfectly expressed this love story with unpretentious performances.

I can't wait for you to be twenty-five, but I will wait for you for the rest of my life.
