Chapter 899 - Crazy Woman
Chapter 899: Crazy Woman
If he could, Song Zheng really didn't want to have any form of intersection with Fan Bingbing for the rest of his life, and even in the list of refusals, Fan Bingbing's name and Song Jiahui were juxtaposed.
But Fan Bingbing was soaking on the phone for a long time, and Song Zheng finally raised his hand and surrendered.
"If you have anything to say, hurry up!"
In a private room in a hotel, Song Zheng pushed open the door and saw Fan Bingbing sitting alone at the table eating seafood, almost thinking that he had made a mistake.
Can TM be a little reserved as a star?
The starving ghost is reincarnated!
Song Zheng sat down and went straight to the point with an expressionless face.
Fan Bingbing stuffed a piece of back pot meat into his mouth, glared at Song Zheng, and said, "You bother me so much!?"
Song Zheng frowned: "I didn't come to discuss this issue with you, didn't you say that the director of "Guanyin Mountain" is also coming!?
Fan Bingbing didn't answer, and then asked, "You haven't answered my question yet, am I particularly annoying to you!"
"You~~~~" Song Zheng really didn't have anything to do with this woman, "Miss Fan! we agreed before, I'll give you a script, from now on, we are i strangers, as strangers, do you think it's necessary for me to answer your question!?
Fan Bingbing rolled his eyes, and then ate: "Are you planning to mess with me!?"
Holy!
There's no reason for that!
was in a stalemate, the door of the private room was suddenly knocked open, yes, it was a bang, the door suddenly made a loud noise, which startled Song Zheng, and the person who came in immediately saw him and immediately let out an exclamation.
"It's you!"
Yes!?
Song Zheng also saw the person clearly, although the recognition of this face was not high, but Song Zheng still recognized it, the director of the original "Guanyin Mountain" in his previous life, Li Yu.
"You ~~~~~~"
Song Zheng just stretched out his hand to say hello, no matter what, Li Yu has always been a director he admires very much, but as soon as he said a word, he was hugged by Li Yu.
I'm Nima, what's going on!?
Lao Tzu let a crazy woman tease her!
Fortunately, Li Yu's hug was very short, and they soon separated, and then Song Zheng heard Li Yu saying: "Idol!
Belch~~~~~~~~
Song Zheng didn't know when he was so valuable.
At this time, Fan Bingbing, who had been eating miamia, suddenly smiled and said, "How about it, I'm not wrong, isn't it a surprise!"
Li Yu sat down directly beside Song Zheng, picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a glass, and said: "It's really a surprise, I thought that the screenwriter who could write a story like "Guanyin Mountain" must be an old man who has experienced the heat and cold of the world!"
Woman, you're insulting yourself!
Others don't know, Song Zheng is so difficult that he doesn't know?
The screenwriter of the original "Guanyin Mountain" is Li Yu himself.
Wait, this doesn't seem to matter, Song Zheng suddenly remembered what kind of situation he was in now: "Miss Fan, what are you inviting me here for, I still have a lot to do, I don't have much time!"
When Fan Bingbing heard this, an evil fire suddenly rose in his heart, but before she could speak, Li Yu hurriedly said: "It's not that she wants to see you, it's that I want to see someone who can write a story like "Guanyin Mountain", what kind of recognition it is." ”
Song Zheng was stunned when he heard this, it was so difficult for Lao Tzu to come all the way here, and he was misunderstood by Feng Xiaogang, just to satisfy your curiosity!?
"It's really ~~~~~ really unexpected, I never thought that the screenwriter of "Guanyin Mountain" would be you!"
Is this a surprise?
Well!
Song Zheng also had to admit that if it weren't for Fan Bingbing's threat, he would definitely not give Fan Bingbing this script, even the media knows that in addition to cooperating in a "No Thieves in the World", the two usually have very little intersection.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this kind of intersection that there are very few people, after "No Thieves in the World", someone broke the news on the Internet that Song Zheng and Fan Bingbing had a bad relationship.
Of course, for a woman like Li Yu who is extremely nervous, whether Song Zheng and Fan Bingbing are bad friends or not has nothing to do with her.
"Director Song, tell me how you came up with the idea of writing such a story, and what kind of connotation you want to express in this story, there are many things I don't understand, such as ~~~~~~~~"
As soon as Li Yu came up, he crackled and said a lot, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than that I don't understand this story well enough, you tell me!
But Li Yu was so tidy, but he directly confused Song Zheng and asked him to tell Li Yu the story of "Guanyin Mountain", and he suddenly had a sense of déjà vu that he was going to play a big knife in front of Guan Gong.
When Song Zheng took out this script to Fan Bingbing, he guessed that Fan Bingbing would definitely find his good sister Li Yu to direct, and in his mind, it would be no problem!
Although this script passed through his hand, and finally returned to Li Yu, it can be regarded as returning to the original owner, but now, Li Yu actually asked him to help analyze the script, what the hell is this?
"Director Song!"
Li Yu waited for a long time, but he didn't see Song Zheng speak, so he called out tentatively.
When Song Zheng heard this, he immediately came back to his senses, although he was still a little awkward in his heart to play Li Kui in front of others, but if he really asked him to tell him, he would be quite willing.
Because Li Yu has always been a director he admires more, and he has always felt that this woman is very thoughtful and practical, and she is not a complete artistic madman like Lou Ye.
Of course, Song Zheng feels that Li Yu also wants to position herself as an art film director, but she is also quite self-aware of her directorial level, and it is estimated that she also knows that her film is difficult to win an award such as the Golden Palm, Golden Lion or Golden Bear like some domestic art film directors, and then help investors recover their costs first and then make a lot of money by making money from foreigners, so she can only aim at the domestic film market while making art films.
But those who know the market should also know that it is almost more difficult for most domestic art films to recover their costs in the domestic film market.
Therefore, Li Yu has made each of her movies a topic, and her position is a pseudo-cultural elitist side-ball position.
Of course, there is nothing to blame, and the current domestic film market can only be blamed for being too deformed, and Li Yu's attempt, in a sense, does point out a new way for domestic art film directors, that is, to make a domestic commercial art film with Chinese characteristics, and then find a way to vigorously market it in a relatively cost-effective, but very effective way.
In the previous life, before the release of "Guanyin Mountain", the marketing work was really successful, especially the theme song of the movie was composed by Fan Xiaoxuan and lyrics by Han Han.
When watching "Guanyin Mountain", Song Zheng often wonders about such a question: why don't you let the people in the film speak in dialects?
Listening to the young people from other provinces played by Chen Bolin and Fan Bingbing, speaking Mandarin with a somewhat Hong Kong, Taiwan and Yanjing accent, it feels like such a hint: This is a random story.
Watching the first half of "Guanyin Mountain", I feel that the story of cruel youth told by Li Yu is really a bit pediatric, and this story is neither real nor profound enough.
And Zhang Aijia's "desperate performance" in this film is also sensational because she is too hard.
If you have watched a lot of very classic art films, you will find that those art film directors are almost always forbearant and restrained when they narrate, and they are more inclined to let the viewer imagine the real cruel and desperate things in life, which is like Hemingway's "iceberg law".
And Li Yu's narrative in her films, which is too hard and does not know how to control it, also makes "Guanyin Mountain" lose the possibility of becoming a classic art film.
If there is anything new about the movie "Guanyin Mountain" compared with similar domestic films, it must be said that this film has finally completed a relatively successful sublimation through religion.
Song Zheng admires the posture of "Guanyin Mountain", an out-and-out literary film, but uses the packaging techniques of commercial films, but appreciating and appreciating, Song Zheng does not agree with some of the processing methods of the original movie, such as letting Zhang Aijia talk to his master, talking about no life and no death, etc.;
Li Yu's treatment method is obviously with a strong purpose, wanting to make the movie's compulsion rise to a higher level, but unfortunately, some things can't be said too clearly, and once they are too clear, they are easy to become preachy.
Of course, preaching is allowed in a movie, but preaching can't make people play, can't speak for the audience, and can't protect its shortcomings and become independent.
In some classic movies, there are also preaching, but the reason why those preaching is not offensive is because the characters in the movie are all in the same tone, you come and go, answer questions and solve doubts, so as to ensure that the emotions are sincere and natural and transparent.
But on the side of "Guanyin Mountain", there are many people with aphasia, and it is unlikely that they can express themselves freely, and the hustle and bustle is nothing more than a bar.
suddenly pulled them to a certain height, threw out the conclusion of the summary and generalization, and finally jumped a little, or rather, it was too explicit, since it was necessary to leave a blank space at the end, it was better to let the characters be silent and subtle to the end, this heart does not have to be exposed by itself.
Overall, the original version of "Guanyin Mountain" can be optimized and improved in software, but in terms of hardware, it is not a big problem, and the carefully selected pickpocketing trains and temples are integrated into a unique life experience, which is really impressive.
Song Zheng felt that if he could have the opportunity to talk to Li Yu in person, it would be a good thing to avoid those problems in the original "Guanyin Mountain".
Song Zheng hopes that "Guanyin Mountain" can be better than the original, because this is really a good story, a story that tells the broken and broken, just as the Chinese people always go through suffering, constantly losing, but constantly forgetting. Matter can be filled, but mental problems are not easy to solve.
What is lacking on the screen is the theme of "Guanyin Mountain", the real theme, on the current big screen, on the one hand, there is the fake big empty of policy movies, and on the other hand, it is the pretentiousness of the metropolitan theme, which is not right anyway.
"Guanyin Mountain" is filming people, individuals, starting from specific life individuals, to observe the psychological trauma and spiritual problems of the Chinese people.
It may not be a classic, yet it has appeared, and it is important to belong to the work of this era.
Of course, the power of a movie is always limited, but if the audience can feel the heart from despair to detachment, then "Guanyin Mountain" has its meaning of existence.
Due to institutional restrictions and censorship constraints, it is difficult for domestic films to have "sharp" films, like an arrow or a sharp knife, extremely sharp and straight to the point.
Therefore, in "Guanyin Mountain", there are constantly railway tracks, plus cableways and highways, and the characters follow the established route, which is tantamount to announcing the helpless situation of a group.
It is no accident that this conclusion is reached, and many of their works, including Jia Zhangke, Lou Ye and Zhang Yuan, also convey such a concept.
There was no fierce struggle, only searching along the way, going up the river, and going down alone.
Now it is up to Li Yu to complete this proposition, Song Zheng feels that it is appropriate, although in her previous life, her "Guanyin Mountain" could not be as satisfactory as she wanted, but now that there is such an opportunity to make up for the shortcomings of the original version, why not do it.
"I can't tell you how to shoot it, after all, you're the director, it's your business how to shoot it, all I can tell you is what kind of story this is. ”
When Li Yu heard this, he nodded again and again, and looked at Song Zheng intently, as if he wanted to listen to every word Song Zheng said.
In fact, it is not difficult to understand what kind of story "Guanyin Mountain" is, this story is mainly formed by the intersection of two tributaries, on one side is a young man who was not admitted to college, and on the other hand, a widowed mother who lost her son.
They all live in broken homes, with broken mirrors and crashed cars in the film. Moved under the same roof, the conflict ran in, and they had a real home. This is certainly not a summary of the topic, as the discerning eye will know at a glance.
The young people in "Guanyin Mountain" stepped into the cruel society early, mingling in the bar, with temptation and trouble. The advantage of this setting is obvious, it doesn't frame the characters in one place, in a house, in a bar, or in the city as a whole. does not let the characters stick to their emotions, let alone give the characters a clear direction, whether they should make money or wake up as soon as possible, but only reveal that they desire to be free and get rid of shackles.
and then to the middle-aged widowed mother, she is still practicing the declining opera day after day, in fact, both inside and out, what she does is no longer popular.
In many movies, this type of professional type of woman exists, so why is it so frequent?
The reason is that drama is closer to traditional culture than most other professions, and women are closer to their position when they do this work, and tradition is also in a weak position in a city that is rapidly modernizing and constantly being overthrown and rebuilt.
"Guanyin Mountain" did not give a few young people a way, but in the middle-aged woman, she successfully found a way to detachment.
In the movie, she committed suicide twice, but her emotional state was very different, and in layman's terms, the previous time she was incomprehensible with resentment and couldn't get rid of it.
The latter is spiritual liberation, and there is no birth and no death. Rather than living, she also used her choice to give young people a piece of advice.
After all, many years later, they will also get married and have children, and they will grow old slowly, and there is still a long road to life. Therefore, "Guanyin Mountain" is not only about youth, nor about redemption, it is about how to detach and how to maintain a sincere heart in the chaos of the world.
A few young people climbed on the train to experience the train through the mountains, in and out of the tunnel, they felt the light and darkness change, a point of light turned into a ball of light, exploded around them, launched, and then fell into an infinite black hole.
It is almost impossible for this memory to exist among today's young people, who are more likely to have paths laid by their parents than to walk on train tracks.
The same road, one is chosen by oneself, and the other is forced by others, "Guanyin Mountain" says that no matter whether the choice is right or wrong, you can go on bravely.
Song Zheng didn't say much, because he didn't want to frame Li Yu to death, the movie itself is an inspired creative process, if he said too much, it would restrain Li Yu's thinking, in many ways, Song Zheng prefers that Li Yu can maintain some of the characteristics of the original.
In general, the original version of "Guanyin Mountain" can be said to be Li Yu's personal best work, compared with her other three films, "This Summer", "Red Face", and "Apple", due to the overall improvement and help of photography, editing, music and other production links, "Guanyin Mountain" has successfully found a balance between Li Yu's personal expression and the commercial needs of the market.
But this does not mean that the movie "Guanyin Mountain" has achieved a qualitative leap in quality, the original movie still has all kinds of regrets, but in the context of Chinese films, in a bunch of domestic films that are scrambling to be visual spectacles and stories are flying more and more, "Guanyin Mountain", a "heart-to-heart" movie, because of its rare sincerity and theme, meets the expectations of some audiences for how domestic films reflect the current society, human nature and emotions, thus achieving its reputation.
Out of the needs of market strategy, "Guanyin Mountain" was packaged as a movie about "cruel youth", but in fact, Song Zheng felt that the theme of this film had nothing to do with youth and growth, it was still about a grand and eternal theme: life and death and faith.
It's just that this grand theme is a little weak because of the weakness of the movie's story, and in the end it only tastes superficially, leaving a lot of regrets.
The most regrettable thing is that in such a story with strong dramatic conflict, Li Yu deliberately gave up most of the possible dramatic conflicts, and instead focused the film on describing the state of the characters, and tried to create an emotion to influence the audience.
Because of the abandonment of the story, the film's cinematography and music are particularly eye-catching, especially the style of handheld photography, which has sparked a wide range of discussions and controversies.
However, this deliberately created state description cannot carry the strong personal desire of the story itself, so that the relatively weak story logic and character creation of the original "Guanyin Mountain" are even more covered by Li Yu's personal desire to express themselves, and finally the "state" that the film wants to portray becomes a "gesture" , the audience may have obtained emotional resonance from many details of life, because of the differences in individual life experiences, the emotions that the film tries to convey at the end of the film seem to lack sufficient foreshadowing and emotional accumulation for some audiences, thus becoming confused.
"Guanyin Mountain" is a very emotional film, it actually needs a story with relatively complete story logic and character as a carrier, so that this film can carry the emotions that the story itself tries to express.
But "Guanyin Mountain" leaves a confusing number of gaps at the story level, some of which are deliberately left blank in the story structure, while others belong to obvious splicing stitches.
Regardless of the reason for this stitching, these fragmentary plots lead to the jumps and incoherence of the film's emotions, so that this film focusing on "emotion" comes to an end, because it is impossible to continue to rely on plot tension and character creation to convey the emotions of the film to the audience, and the director has to stand up himself and complete the expression of the theme of the film with the help of the dialogue of the characters.
"Loneliness is not forever, being together is forever. ”
This line is the finishing touch of this film, because the previous character creation lacks enough emotional foreshadowing, the emotional climax here is a little caught the audience off guard, and before the mood can be adjusted to keep up with the director's pace, the whole film is over.
Now that there is a chance to make up for this regret, Song Zheng feels very good.
After listening to Song Zheng's words, Li Yu also fell into deep thought, and Fan Bingbing, who was sitting on the side, didn't understand it at all.
That's it!?
Fan Bingbing suddenly felt that he was being tricked by Li Yu, what did he say before he came, he had something very important to say to the screenwriter of "Guanyin Mountain", so that she had to raise her hand to surrender, and exposed Song Zheng, but Song Zheng said so many words, and Li Yu had no words?
"Li Yu, you ~~~~~~~"
"Don't speak!" Li Yu waved his hand in disgust.
Seeing this, Fan Bingbing was so angry that he almost didn't jump up, who is this!?
Fan Bingbing saw that Li Yu didn't speak, so he could only look at Song Zheng, and hinted in his eyes, but unfortunately, Song Zheng didn't pay attention to her, which made her feel depressed for a while.
After more than ten minutes, suddenly Li Yu raised his head and smiled: "I understand, I understand, it's detachment, right, it's not redemption, it's detachment!
Li Yu stood up as he spoke, and said to Fan Bingbing: "Bingbing, I'm going to go back and sort out my thoughts now, give me a week, no, two days, and when the time comes, I'll come back to you!"
After speaking, Li Yu left directly, and only Song Zheng and Fan Bingbing were left in the private room.
Fan Bingbing was looked at by Song Zheng, and his heart was also embarrassed, he hesitated for a while, and said, "Why don't you eat some too!?"
