Verse 508: Afternoon breeze
Different directors have different styles, and Du An's commercial films have always been tight rhythm, Wei Rongchen's "Xiao Shan" is stained with a lot of his personal style, the overall tone is a lazy and soothing rhythm, and the tone is not like Du An's extreme tension, which is mainly based on bright colors and deliberately pressed points.

If I have to describe it, the feeling that this movie brings to the audience in the screening room is that on a hot summer afternoon, by the river, the trees are lush and the grass is in the shade, you move a chaise longue and choose a shade to lie down, quietly facing the cool breeze blowing from the river.
Coupled with a faint, soothing and melodious background sound, this feeling is even stronger.
Du quietly looked at the screen, empty-handed - the ice cream had been handed over to Su Jin, let her eat it slowly.
"Xiaoshan" is the same as "Crazy Stone", he is the producer, but the two are not the same: "Crazy Stone" is Ning Hao's own book, Ning Hao knows more about what the movie wants to express, "Xiaoshan" is his book, he knows more about this movie than Wei Rongchen; Ning Hao was already a director who had been working for several years when he was filming "Crazy Stone", with rich experience and mature ideas, while Wei Rongchen didn't even have crew work experience when he was filming "Xiaoshan"; He didn't participate too much in the entire production process of "Crazy Stone", and he participated in the filming of "Xiaoshan" from beginning to end......
So although they are both producers, "Crazy Stone" and "Xiaoshan" are different. If you have to use an analogy, then "Crazy Stone" is Ning Hao's thesis, which was handed over after several rounds of defense by his tutor, and "Xiaoshan" is an exemplary essay written by Wei Rongchen under the guidance of his junior high school Chinese teacher.
However, although it was guided by hand, this essay was written by Wei Rongchen himself after all, so Wei Rongchen's personal characteristics are still reflected, such as the soothing and lazy feeling of the movie as a whole.
"Is this really a movie you produced?"
Su Jin looked at it, leaned into Du An's ear and whispered a question, the voice was so small that Du An almost couldn't hear it.
Duane said, "Of course. ”
Su Jin was a little skeptical: "I feel that this movie is completely different from your previous movies." ”
Pregnant women tend to become more and more paranoic over time because they are out of shape and unable to give their husbands the rights they deserve, wondering if their husbands will outside behind their backs. Especially when her husband is Duane, the type who is easy to attract bees and butterflies in all aspects, it is even more suspicious.
"What about working outside, you won't be ......?"
Du An, who was still watching the movie seriously, was silently thinking about how to deal with the degree of his involvement from the final performance of the film in the theater, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but come back to his senses all of a sudden, turned his head, and looked at Su Jin with a smile.
He saw Su Jin frowning a pair of good-looking brows, his mouth pursing slightly, and his cheeks puffing out slightly, looking at him with suspicion.
"What do you want?"
Duane helplessly pulled her wrinkled nose, reached out and rubbed her face away, and whispered, "I'm just a producer, not a director." I didn't add too many personal factors to this movie, mainly for him to play, I just played a guide, mainly in the commercial rhythm of the whole movie......"
He said it for a while, and finally said, "Yes, Mrs. Du, can you see so many doorways from the movie now?"
"Nasty!"
Su Jin broke his hand away, lowered his voice and said viciously, "Be careful that I bite you!"
Then he said very proudly: "That's, how to say that I'm also the wife of a big director, recently I've been idle at home every day and have nothing to do with the computer, so I can only watch movies if I don't let me play, I'm smart, and after watching it a few more times, I naturally understand one, two, three, four." If you let me get pregnant for another ten months, you don't have to do it as a director, just take my place to get pregnant, I will work as a director outside to support you......"
The so-called three years of being pregnant and stupid is really not bad at all, she was easily deviated from the rhythm by Du An, and she boasted about her martial arts, completely forgetting to seriously investigate whether Du An's was running the crew outside or messing around before.
The frolic between the two didn't last long, and soon Su Jin finished bragging, and the two began to turn their attention to the movie again.
The actor of the movie, Wang Jinshu, and the heroine met.
Just like the soothing of the previous declarative paragraphs, the meeting between the hero and heroine here remains in this style, plain: Shen Anru enters the bookstore to buy books, talks to Wang Jinshu, buys books, and leaves.
Then the hero and heroine meet again, this time it is Wang Jinshu who accidentally spills the juice on Shen Anru, and then invites Shen Anru to go back to her home to change her clothes - obviously, Shen Anru's full of juice does not allow her to continue walking on the street.
Then the relationship between the two began.
Wang Jinshu went to Shen Anru's appointment, but had to pretend to be a reporter, a civilian rampaged in the world of big stars, Shen Anru also expressed his attitude, and took the initiative to participate in Wang Jinshu's family gathering......
"It reminds me of "Pretty Woman,"
Duane heard the boy sitting next to him say this to his female companion.
The boy obviously didn't know how loud his voice was, and even though he could hear him clearly lowering his voice, it allowed Duane to hear his words clearly.
"In the end, it's all Duane's movie, but unlike "Fengyue", the status of men and women in this movie is reversed, and it is not as exciting as "Fengyue" ......"
It's not that exciting.
That's right.
Wei Rongchen's personal style is so soothing and lazy, there is an illusion of elongating the time dimension, and the intuitive feeling to the audience is bland, compared to the bright and compact that Du ane did in "Pretty Woman" is undoubtedly more exciting. In addition, in terms of the use of the lens and composition, Wei Rongchen seems to be decent, there is nothing outstanding, far less eye-catching and distinctive than what Du ane used many times in "Pretty Woman".
This is in terms of the director's personal style, but also in terms of the actors.
The two protagonists of "Pretty Woman in the Wind and Moon" are Du An and Zhu Qian, these two of them have mature and superb acting skills when filming "Wind and Moon", every move is a play, and they collide with each other to stimulate their respective levels higher, sparks are splashing all the time, which naturally makes the audience dizzy, and they only feel that there are highlights everywhere and are wonderful all the time, in comparison, the two actors of "Xiaoshan" are undoubtedly much inferior.
In terms of the heroine, Song Zhen's acting skills are excellent among her peers, but compared with Zhu Qian, who was already mature and superb in acting at that time, it is still a lot worse, and from the perspective of the male protagonist, Wang Jinshu and Du An are not on the same level, and the gap between them is like a moat. In addition, there is also a gap between the two heroes and heroines, and if they are not equal, they will naturally not collide with any sparks, so they can only play their respective strengths step by step, which is a little worse.
All these factors are combined, and the intuitive feeling to the audience is that "Xiaoshan" is not as exciting as "Fengyue".
But it's just not as exciting as "Fengyue", not that it is not wonderful in itself.
Duane turned his head to look around casually, and by the light on the screen, he saw several audience members in the back row of him staring at the screen, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Xiaoshan" is not an explosion of sweetness like "Fengyue", it is a cool afternoon breeze that makes people smile.
