Chapter 375: Gifts
How to structure the storyline, how to base on the camera angle, and how to express the character are all different for the director.
Gan Jing is familiar with the script and almost knows how to memorize it, and he is familiar with it after several months of filming, but it was not until he was halfway through the process that he suddenly understood Ang Lee's unique skills.
This really made him admire.
In addition to the obvious fallacies in the film's footage, there are many metaphors in Life Pi, also to prove the truth of the second story.
"What does the lotus symbolize?" After a day, Gan Jing replied at night and pondered repeatedly, but he didn't sleep well all night.
Li An said lightly: "Forrest Gump, you are playing an Indian, where Hindu religion believes in Vishnu. According to legend, the world came from his sleep, and a lotus flower was born above his navel, and Brahma was born in the lotus, and Brahma was created after him. ”
"The lotus flower symbolizes the Hindu faith?" said Gan Jing thoughtfully.
Li An looked at Forrest Gump steadily, a gentle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but there was a little lesson on his mouth: "Forrest Gump, he is already a good actor who can express people's joys, sorrows, and sorrows." However, if you can understand the background and beliefs of the character, then you can play his soul. This is his ignition of an actor like Gan Jing.
What are Indians like? What are the three views of the Indian Youth School?
Because Gan Jing's role is to survive at sea, and it is a picture without moral and legal constraints, the three views and the like have been weakened a lot, and Gan Jing didn't think much about these before.
At this moment, hearing the director's lesson, he suddenly felt that he could do better.
"Listen to your words, it's better to watch 10G films. Gan Jing couldn't help but sigh.
It sounds weird, but that's complimenting me, right?
Li An bowed slightly: "Don't ask me next time, go find the answer yourself, in fact, there are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers, and some things are not the only solution." ”
Gan Jing left with admiration and reflection.
That night, he didn't sleep well, or rather, he didn't go to bed at all.
Back in the hotel, he opened the script, put it on the table, opened his notebook and began to search for knowledge about Hinduism.
Exploring metaphors and proving that stories are as exciting and enjoyable as a child's discovery of one colorful candy after another.
There are three gods in India, Lord Brahma created, Shiva is destroyed, and Vishnu is maintained.
This Vishnu was a gentle man, a benevolent to his devotees, and often took on various forms to save the people in need.
When he saw this, Gan Jing thought about the cannibal island that appeared in the script, and thought about the flying fish that appeared and landed on the boat...... These are presumably alluding to the incarnations of Vishnu.
Similarly, Pai's mother, who is a devout Hindu, grabbed a handful of bananas and boarded the ship in a shipwreck, and only Pai survived.
On the way, in the endless sea, Pie faces moral hesitation, struggle, and anger, does he see her as the embodiment of the gods to save the crisis?
Science solves the outside, and religion sorts out the inside.
From this point of view, Life Pi is a latter movie.
On this night, Gan Jing substituted himself and felt inhuman pain and anxiety.
Sleepless nights.
……
Some people watch movies and see the first layer, some people watch movies and think about the second layer, and some people fully associate and carefully compare to dig out the third layer.
At that moment, sitting in front of the screen in the theater, it was as if I had suddenly communicated with the director and actors, and established a spiritual resonance.
Still, it's hard to say which movie-going experience is better.
Is it better to have a complex understanding than a simple smile?
The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you all have an enjoyable viewing experience. If it's not good, then tell me and I'll think about it. Don't refund your ticket. ”
Gan Jing sat on the stage with the microphone and smiled easily.
"Gan-chan, we're going to go to the movies!"
"I like Hachiko, the loyal dog of Gan Sauce so much!"
"Sweet sauce is big to the touch!"
The first stop of the Neon Country Tokyo promotion, the response of fans and fans was quite enthusiastic - this kind of enthusiasm was not expected by Gan Jing himself.
Not to mention the servility in the bones of the people of the neon country, not to mention the worship of the strong in this nation, they are extremely arrogant and inferior...... Well, Gan Jing was really taken aback during the propaganda period in this country.
This enthusiasm is great.
For a moment, Gan Jing wondered if he had entered the mainland.
"Gan Jun, this is a fan gift I received today. The assistant of the propagandist knocked on the door and pointed to the cart behind him, which was piled up with dolls, puppets, envelopes, and so on.
"Well, put it in the room, I'll wait for someone to take it back." ”
"Hi yes. This is a local assistant, turned around respectfully, and was just about to leave when he asked, "What will Gan Jun do with these gifts?"
Gan Jing didn't think about it and said, "Take it home." ”
The assistant nodded, bowed, closed the door, and left.
Gan Jing got up and pushed the cart inside, and counted, there were already four carts, which were full of dazzling, both the very common handicrafts, and the handicrafts that could obviously be seen to be very attentive.
It's not good to throw away gifts, but if you take them back, they take up space at home, and the dog probably won't be interested in these things.
After thinking for a while, Gan Jing called Lao Chen.
"Lao Chen, you help me pick a land in the capital and buy a house. Gan Jing directly said his request.
"Why do you suddenly want to buy a house? Not enough for you to live in before?" Lao Chen was busy with his hands, very puzzled.
"For gifts, pick a bigger one, you can be farther away, cheaper, and it is used to stack gifts for fans. Gan Jing explained.
Lao Chen couldn't cry or laugh: "Your fan gift is so expensive, do you have to pile it up?"
"I think about how it is a piece of people's hearts, and there are fans in China who give gifts, so let's put it up, it will be a good memory in the future. ”
"Well, you're an uncle. Lao Chen just wanted to hang up, and suddenly said, "By the way, the prototype from Xiaomi came out, and I will give you one when I go back, and you will give it publicity on Weibo, and you have to shoot a few sets of advertisements when you return to China when you are free." ”
On the Xiaomi side, Gan Jing has shares in it, and he naturally deserves these advertising endorsements.
“OK。 ”
The phone hung up, Gan Jing didn't expect Xiaomi's mobile phone to come out, think about it, there is still some expectation.
Hey, he suddenly vaguely remembered that he seemed to have a gambling contract with a guy to sell mobile phones.
After winning, he gave his daughter to himself?
Well, it seems that under such conditions, the memory is blurred.
