The last section of the film is filmed with the heroine's monologue. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The info heroine seems to have just finished filming a scene, and she is still wearing the costume in the play, but her face is a little depressed, she is not looking at the camera, and her eyes seem to be looking at the tall floor-to-ceiling window next to her. But for some reason, I always feel that the heroine in the film is very similar to Cheng Manlin's temperament. There was no recording of the film at the same time, so I didn't know what she was talking about, but behind her, the staff hurriedly put a lot of props into the big wooden box, and seemed to be preparing to evacuate.

At this moment, Cheng Manlin's intermittent voice suddenly came from my side. "The shooting had to stop...... We were trapped in Beiping...... There are Japanese soldiers everywhere...... Weibang is not expected to come back...... I heard that there is also a war in Shanghai...... I hope he's all right......" My friend and I both looked at her in surprise, and I couldn't help blurting out: "Xiao Cheng, do you know how to lip talk?"

Cheng Manlin nodded to me, continued to stare at the screen, and said slowly: "We are only less than ten scenes away, and we are done...... I have to stop, I don't know if there is a chance to finish filming...... I hope Duan Cheng and the others can ship the photographed copies...... Hopefully, this film will have a chance to be reborn...... From thirty-two years to the present, five full years are all the hard work of Tianma...... Vibon said that every filmmaker has a gun in his hand, a gun to resist the invaders, and hopes that he will win on another battlefield......"

The film came to an abrupt halt, and the screening room went dark, and no one spoke again, except for two lit cigarette butts, glowing a dim red.

"Uncle Chang, I think we are shooting the same book, maybe what we are completing is such a movie that has been interrupted for 50 years. In the darkness, Cheng Manlin's soft tone sounded again.

"Yes, there are too many regrets in this world, it takes generations to complete, and sadly we are slowly forgetting. We will attribute the unknown we cannot understand to ghosts, but we will be content to be in the company of real ghosts. After making this movie, I don't think there will be anything to be afraid of, what we perceive is the ideals and persistence of filmmakers in that era. The only thing that can save time is the camera you're facing. "I turned on the lights in the screening room.

"Keep these copies in your library," I shook my friend's hand.

Out of the studio, snowflakes were already floating outside, and Beijing, covered in silver, seemed to be asleep.

Most of the filming of the Red Mansion film was finally completed before the Spring Festival, and some shots were added after the festival to enter post-production. In the last month of filming, everyone in the crew was like a demon, working selflessly. In order to improve efficiency, everyone moved back to the Red Mansion to live, the room was not enough, the heating equipment was insufficient, the crew simply found a few tents to support on the top floor, and one person was given a large sleeping bag. But no one mentioned anything strange going on in the Red Mansion.

During this period, Mr. Luo, the chief director of Hong Kong, came to the crew once, watched the sample film, praised the early shooting, and thought that the style of this film was very Hitchcockian, but with such an evaluation, Director He was surprisingly calm, but instead raised some problems in the early shooting, hoping to make up a few scenes after the Spring Festival.

At this time, the crew also ushered in the filming of the last scene.

The entire Red Mansion was surrounded by Japanese military police, and Cheng Manlin, Xiao Ye and their disfigured sister climbed onto the roof of the Red Mansion. The sky was overcast, gray as iron, and tiny snowflakes were flying. Cheng Manlin looked at everything around her calmly, but Xiao Ye looked a little frightened, and held Cheng Manlin's hand.

When the Japanese military police rushed to the Red Mansion, the three women looked at each other, and there was no despair in their eyes, but a firm relief. Holding hands, they chose to jump off the roof. Although the crew arranged a huge air cushion downstairs, everyone was nervous and held their breath when the three people fell from the roof. As they landed on the air cushion, dust and tiny snowflakes rose into the sky. But the three of them didn't immediately get up from the air cushion, and everyone ran over nervously.

The three women lay quietly on the air mattress, motionless. Maybe it was the last scene, Xiao Ye lay on the air cushion and sobbed, as if the pressure and fear of the long time had been released at this moment. Cheng Manlin was lying flat on the air cushion, but her eyes looked at the position where the Red Mansion had just jumped, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

I followed her gaze to the roof, where there seemed to be a faint black shadow, looking down at the eaves. At that moment, I seemed to see the black figure stretch out its arm, wave it down, turn and run away.

Before the Spring Festival, all the scenes between Cheng Manlin and Zhang Zhenting were filmed, and Producer Lin invited the whole crew to have a meal in Donglaishun. That day, by drinking, I told Producer Lin about Editor-in-Chief Gao, and as I expected, Producer Lin was very excited and asked me to make an appointment with Editor-in-Chief Gao to discuss it in detail after the festival. Everyone drank a little too much that day, and what surprised me the most was the usually taciturn Wu Photography, who didn't know where he got the interest, summed up the shooting process in a long way, and raised the film to the epoch-making height of Chinese thriller movies.

He also took the camera, and insisted that everyone take an exclusive interview as a souvenir, Xiao Ye was arranged to be an interview reporter, and everyone sat in front of the camera very formally and talked. During the shooting, Cheng Manlin turned her face to look at me, and I nodded at her, and we both had a sense of déjà vu in this scene.

Cheng Manlin insisted on staying in Beijing for the New Year, we couldn't resist her, so we had to let her stay, but she asked the production director for the key to the Red Mansion, and on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, she called Zeng Qian, Cao Team and Xiao Ye. We lit the fireplace in the Red House and prepared a table of dishes. Cheng Manlin respectfully sprinkled a whole bottle of good wine on the floor of the hall, and for a while, the aroma in the Red Mansion was overflowing. She took out the Spring Festival couplets and the word Fu again, and seriously pasted them on the wide wooden door.

While sticking to the Spring Festival couplets, she whispered to me that the little ghost in her body was gone, and in the last scene, he might prefer to exist in a play that can never be finished. That night, in the dense sound of firecrackers, the Red Mansion finally had the appearance of home.

Time flies, and about a year later, the movie is finally released. I stayed in Hunan for a while after that Spring Festival and lost contact with the crew. At the first scene of the premiere, I happened to be back in Beijing, received an invitation from Producer Lin, and sat in the first row, only then did I find out that almost everyone in the Red Mansion crew had arrived, but I didn't see Cheng Manlin. Producer Lin told me that Cheng Manlin did something that surprised everyone after filming this film, she resolutely quit the film industry, got married about half a year ago, and is estimated to be on her honeymoon in Australia now. Everyone thinks that Cheng Manlin gave up her career because of her family, which is not uncommon in the circle, only Producer Lin knows that there must be hidden secrets.

When he came to Beijing to attend the premiere, Producer Lin called Cheng Manlin, and when he invited her to participate, he brought up the old matter again and asked Cheng Manlin if he made the decision to stop filming because of what he encountered while filming in the Red Mansion. Cheng Manlin told him with a smile that no, she just felt that for her, acting in a good movie for a lifetime was enough.

I suddenly had a thought, and I casually asked Producer Lin, what is the name of the writer who committed suicide after writing the script? Producer Lin scratched his head and thought about it, and told me that his surname seemed to be Duan.

Before I could think about it, a pair of big hands suddenly reached out next to me and grabbed me. I turned my head to look at it, and it turned out to be the editor-in-chief Gao, and after he thanked him left and right, I learned that the cooperation between the magazine and the Hong Kong film company was negotiated more than half a year ago. The new film magazine has been on the market for two issues, and it has not only sold well, but has also been highly praised by the ministry, and is now preparing for the Hong Kong Film Week, and is very busy. He also told me that the film was screened as a premiere film at the Venice Film Festival and was widely acclaimed, Director Wu won a new director award, and Xiao Ye was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, but unfortunately Cheng Manlin didn't win. I thought to myself, if that little ghost was still on Cheng Manlin, would she come back with a queen?

At this time, the movie began. That's when I realized how different what I saw in the cinema was from what I saw on the set. The film has a faint cyan hue, a little hazy and a little mysterious, but as soon as the camera turns to the inside of the Red Mansion, it immediately becomes saturated with color. In scenes with many characters, it is often a long shot, and when there is only one character, the camera switches quickly, which not only allows the audience to quickly integrate into the story, but also makes people always feel that there is a pair of invisible eyes watching you. This effect makes me have to admire Wu's photography and camera scheduling skills.

As the movie progressed, the screams of ladies were heard in the theater from time to time, and Director Wu's skills were vividly displayed at this time, the setting of every plot, the foreshadowing of every dialogue, and the suspense hidden behind every shot, so that the audience was deeply immersed in it and could not extricate themselves. The actors' performances are full of emotion and shocking, and the tragic ending at the end of the movie is even more embarrassing. When the closing credits were played, there was thunderous applause in the cinema, and the audience stood up and saluted.

When I inadvertently looked back at the audience, I suddenly saw two vague shadows in the passage of the last row of the movie theater, one was very familiar to me, with a slender figure and outstanding temperament, it was Cheng Manlin, and the middle-aged man standing next to her was not tall, wearing a windbreaker, and the most special thing was that he seemed to have a pipe in his mouth. At this time, the lights in the theater were not yet on, and I couldn't really see it.

I hurriedly stood up and walked to the back row, at this time the light above my head turned on instantly, my eyes were a flower, I subconsciously stopped, when my eyes adapted to the light, there was no longer Cheng Manlin and the man in the passage.

I chased out the door of the movie theater, only to find that there were already large snowflakes outside, dancing all over the sky, and thick snow had fallen on the trees near and far, just like the eve of the Spring Festival in the Red Chamber a year ago.
