Chapter 54 Analyzing the plot, layer by layer

"Yes, there are indeed a few seemingly unreasonable places in the plot, which are actually deliberately set up small easter eggs. ”

Gu Zhi said to Gao Yuanyuan with a smile, and praised her quite a lot. To be able to ask these questions, she should usually pay a lot of attention to the script.

The others were also thoughtful at this time.

"At the end of the film, Song Mingxi met a strange old man under the big tree, have you ever wondered why you want to move out of such a character, it seems that whether there is a strange old man will not affect the plot number. ”

Gu Zhi didn't answer Gao Yuanyuan's question, but instead threw out another question.

"Yes, when I saw the script at the end, I thought that it would be better to make this scene into Song Mingxi's one-man show, that is, it would test the heroine's acting skills. I have to insert a strange old man out, to be honest, it feels quite abrupt, and it doesn't have any unnecessary effect. ”

It was Huang Haibo who spoke, which made Gu Zhi a little unexpected. He's just a supporting role, and the scene ends before it ends. It seems that he not only studied his own part of the play, but also put a lot of effort into the study of the entire script.

"What a good actor, what a pity. ”

Thinking of what happened to him in the future, Gu Zhi sighed secretly in his heart and nodded at him.

"You look very carefully, the strange old man was actually deliberately arranged by me, and in the movie he didn't just appear once, but twice. ”

"Twice? impossible, did I miss it?"

When Huang Haibo heard Gu Zhi's words, he immediately opened the script and found it, Tong Dawei and Gao Yuanyuan were the same, but Ni Dahong didn't move, and directly closed his eyes and recalled.

"You don't have to look for it, there are two relevant details in the script that I didn't write, and I was originally going to add them directly during filming, but now that they have been proposed, I will explain them to you in detail. ”

Several people present stopped what they were doing, and their eyes focused on Gu Zhi's body, waiting for his next step.

"The first detail, at the end of the film, Song Mingxi chatted with the strange old man and reopened the time egg, at this time there will be a UFO slowly flying by, this part I am ready to shoot after the shooting, and hand it over to the post-production special effects team to deal with. Of course, this UFO was definitely not added for the sake of being funny. ”

Two years after Song Mingxi and Liu Lian separated, Liu Lian came to the place agreed by the two and opened the time egg that was buried two years ago, and the frog that suddenly appeared in it was related to this UFO. ”

Three years later, Song Mingxi came back from the United Kingdom, came to the promised tree, and met the strange old man, in fact, this strange old man was Liu Lian, who returned to the past by UFO. ”

"Huh?"

"UFO back in time?"

Several of the main creators were confused from the beginning of hearing the UFO, and now they can't understand it even more, this is not a romantic comedy, how did it become a science fiction film again...

Ignoring everyone's surprised expressions, Gu Zhi continued to talk to himself.

Song Mingxi mentioned in the previous plot that she thinks UFOs are time machines, which is a small hint for everyone. In another time and space, Liu Lian actually didn't wait for Song Mingxi, which is why there will be UFOs. ”

"Back to the second detail, when Song Mingxi and Liu Lian met for the first time, on the subway, Song Mingxi used violence to get a young man to give up his seat. When I actually filmed this scene, I asked Director Lu Chuan to shoot one more shot, and the picture on that shot was a few people sitting next to Liu Lian, and an old man in the middle was looking up at Liu Lian. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Chuan nodded and agreed: "Last time I discussed the sub-shot picture with classmate Gu, he did deliberately explain this shot, and asked me to control the camera time a little longer. ”

Gu Zhi gestured to Lu Chuan and continued: "Everyone should have guessed who this old man is by now, right? He is the strange old man who chatted with Song Mingxi under the big tree later. ”

Didn't Song Mingxi mention "people from the future" in many places? She kept saying that she hoped she was the one from the future, but in fact, the plot alluded to Liu Lian. Liu led back to the past, just to save the love between the two, so that the two who were not together in the end could meet again. ”

So at the end of the movie, Song Mingxi's first sentence when he saw Liu Lian said, "You may not believe it, but I think I met someone from the future." This sentence actually alludes to the fact that the strange old man is the future Liu Lian. ”

By traveling through time and space to change the past and influence the future, after the elderly Liu is brought back to the future, the two of them are already together, and the internal logic of the film is actually in the same vein as "Butterfly Effect". ”

"Every change in the past in "The Butterfly Effect" will bring unexpected bad news, and none of them will end well, and even the male protagonist in the final ending will commit suicide. ”

"And "My Sassy Girlfriend" has only one ending, and it is a happy ending, even if it is a good thought for the audience,"

"This is the biggest easter egg of this movie, do you understand?"

Gu Zhi carefully analyzed the film, and by the way, it was also involved with "Butterfly Effect".

As early as when he decided to shoot "Butterfly Effect", Gu Zhi thought about his second movie to shoot "My Sassy Girlfriend".

He chose this film not only because of its influence in Asia, but also because of its relevance to "The Butterfly Effect".

The two movies that seem to be completely unconnected, because of Gu Zhi's deliberate arrangement, there is an extra clue that connects them out of thin air.

This clue is not placed on the bright side, but a hidden dark line, and when the audience who has watched "The Butterfly Effect" discovers this clue connecting the two movies, Gu Zhi believes that they will definitely be ecstatic.

For the audience, this is Gu Zhi's commemoration of the last movie, and there is an invisibly more touching emotion in it.

"This... Is this all right? There are two movies and... This relationship?!"

In the conference room, countless images flashed in everyone's minds, all of them were dumbfounded, and they were speechless for a while.

At this time, their eyes looking at Gu Zhi were mixed with more and more complex emotions, admiration, surprise, appreciation, dementia, envy, plus the and admiration of Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Qi, the two young ladies, to name a few.

"Pap, pap, pap, pap..."

First of all, Ni Dahong's applause began, and several others applauded vigorously, and in an instant, the small conference room was filled with surging applause.

"Thank you. ”

"Thank you. ”

With Ni Dahong's seniors taking the lead, Gu Zhi was embarrassed to continue to sit, so he quickly stood up and greeted everyone, and thanked him repeatedly, with a very sincere attitude.

These few people in front of him are the first batch of "audiences" who know the inside story of the movie, and they can get their affirmation, Gu Zhi is somewhat moved, and he is more sure of his careful thinking about the selection of materials.

His movies are always for the audience, and nothing makes him happier than the audience's love and recognition.

"No wonder the third master takes such a fancy to you, I can't believe that you are still so young, it is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves! If an old guy like me doesn't work hard, he will fall on the beach." ”

Ni Dahong didn't expect this junior newcomer to do so well and gave him a small surprise.

He has also watched "The Butterfly Effect", although he didn't say it, he actually doesn't like this so-called "science fiction film" in his heart. In his opinion, this movie is only creative but has not enough connotation, and it is too out of touch with reality.

This time, I was able to agree to star in Gu Zhi's new movie, firstly, for the sake of Han Sanping's face, it was not good not to come; second, he really hasn't received any dramas in recent months, and he is idle if he is idle, so it is better to come out and make money.

No matter how much the older generation of actors pick up dramas, they usually have to come out to make money.

He just didn't expect that Gu Zhi's kid was really good!

Ni Dahong realized that the old people in the traditional film and television industry, including himself, may have a biased evaluation of Gu Zhi.
