"Hey, are your injuries better?"

During the filming break, Wang Dalun wore a sportswear and a pair of extremely fancy red autumn pants underneath, and gathered by the stove to call his girlfriend. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoSpeaking of Fan Ziyi, she was also very unlucky, she broke her leg on the first day of filming in Guangzhou, because she was not familiar with anything when she first came, she didn't dare to cry, she gritted her teeth, and continued filming after taking medicine, but she was hit by an arrow in the head and bulged up a big bag.

"The bag on my head has faded, but the wound on my foot has not yet healed, and I am afraid that I will leave a scar, and I will not be able to wear a skirt at that time. Fan Ziyi said depressedly on the phone.

"Attention, don't eat soy sauce during this time. And there is no local specialty pearl powder, you buy some to coat, this thing is very smart, and it will definitely not leave a scar in the future. ”

"The staff here also told me that I had asked Sasha to help me buy it today, and I would apply it at night to see the effect. Hey, by the way, how did you shoot there?"

"It's okay, it's just a little slower. The main reason is that the weather is not very good these days, the wind is strong, it is cold, and the shooting time is long, and the machine is not used. ”

"It's cold there, it's hot here, it's still in the twenties, and it's sweating to move. Just yesterday, Brother Jie made a joke. ”

"What kind of joke?" Wang Dalun said curiously, wondering if this product should be playing a big name again, right?

"Didn't I tell you last time, Bao Zheng, played by Brother Jie, still has a crescent moon on his head. This thing was customized by the crew in Hong Kong with molds. As a result, Brother Jie sweated all over yesterday and straightened the crescent moon, he didn't know it himself, you said it was funny or not. Fan Ziyi chuckled.

Although her relationship with Zhou Jie can only be said to be average, after all, both of them belong to the Huanzhu family, even if Zhou Jie likes to play big names, she is still very polite to her.

Wang Dalun echoed and laughed twice, and then asked, "Aren't you busy?"

"I didn't go to the set this morning, I didn't go to the set, and now I'm watching TV in my room!"

"Then why didn't I hear the TV?"

"I turned off the volume, what's the matter, check my post?"

"How dare I check your post, so I asked casually. Wang Dalun hurriedly said, he was not bored enough to check his girlfriend's post.

"Hmph, what about you, what are you doing now?" Fan Ziyi snorted coldly.

"I just finished filming a scene, and I froze to death, and I was roasting the fire. ”

"It's so cold in there, it's not even December yet!"

"Nonsense, didn't I tell you just now, now I can't even shoot the exterior scenes, Lao Jia also said that it is estimated that it will snow this day. ”

"Is it going to snow?" Fan Ziyi said in an incredible tone, she likes snow very much, because their hometown in northern Fujian has not seen a single snow for several years. For this reason, Wang Dalun said that she is a little grass dog, in addition to liking to bite, she also likes snow. There is a saying that oh, the snow dogs rejoice!

"On the edge of this place is Luliang Mountain, which is an inland mountainous area, much colder than the capital, and it usually snows in early December. He popularized geography for his girlfriend.

"Oh, then you guys shoot slowly, can you come back on New Year's Day?" Fan Ziyi asked again.

"I think I can choke. ”

He is looking at the revised script these days, and Lao Jia has added a lot of scenes compared to the original script. What's even worse is that he still likes to play on the spot, obviously there is no script on it, but he has a temporary feeling, he will make up a scene on the spot and shoot it all day.

"We have a few days to finish here, and then we will go to Hefei, and we will definitely be able to return to the capital before New Year's Day." Fan Ziyi's tone was a little disappointed.

"Hey, by the way, you said that there is something delicious about Hefei. But she quickly collected her mood and asked again. A few years ago, Wang Dalun just finished filming "The True Colors of the Criminal Police" in Hefei.

"The Sanhe snacks are not bad, I don't know the rest, I was busy filming at that time, and I didn't have time to wander around. ”

"Cut!" Fan Ziyi was very dissatisfied with his perfunctory answer, "Hey, you are always from Gadagada here, what are you doing?"

"Oh, it's my mom making me bell bottoms again. Bell bottoms, do you understand?"

Maybe a post-80s generation like Fan Ziyi may not quite understand what bell bottoms are, but for people in the late sixties and early seventies, bell bottoms symbolize an era.

Speaking of which, in addition to the fact that the background of this movie is still in Fenyang and the language is still Fenyang dialect, Lao Jia still follows the habit of liking to use non-professional actors. Except for Wang Dalun, who is a professional actor and Yang Lina who has acted in dramas, the others are not professional actors, such as the head of the art troupe, Lao Xu, played by the avant-garde poet Xi Chuan, Liang Jingdong who played Zhang Jun and Song Yongping, who played the electrician Lao Song, also served as art directors, and from production director Wang Hongwei to assistant director Gu Zheng, almost all the members of the crew played roles in the film.

In Lao Jia's words, this is his aesthetic interest, because he very much wants to photograph the most natural and real state of people, if you use trained actors, they have received a long time of language training, body training, their language methods, body methods, it is difficult to integrate into his documentary methods. It will be difficult for an actor who has physical training to walk on Fenyang Street to integrate with this environment, of course, Wang Dalun is an exception.

However, Wang Hongwei secretly told Wang Dalun that although the total investment of "Platform" reached 8 million, Lao Jia wanted to make the film an epic scale, not only because of the different seasons to be shot independently in three times, the entire production shuttled through multiple locations, but also needed to convey the passage of time through constantly changing clothing fashion, hairstyles, pop music, promotional slogans and scene design. In this way, the funds are still stretched, and this is not counting the unrestrained use of film. So in terms of casting, Lao Jia can only be selected from the members of the Youth Experimental Film Group to his circle of friends and collaborators, and of course, a large number of local natives in Fenyang.

For example, the actor Liang Yonghao, who plays Yin Ruijuan's father, is the local policeman in Fenyang, and the policeman Hao Youliang in "Xiao Wu" is played by him. Another example is Cui Mingliang's younger brother played by Wang Dalun, and his parents are also Lao Jia's fellow villagers - the local natives of Fenyang.

But here's the problem, compared with "Xiao Wu", there are only a few actors, and there are n times more famous characters in "Platform" than in "Xiao Wu", otherwise how can it be embarrassed to be called an epic movie.

There are many non-professional actors, Lao Jia is no longer as calm as when he was filming "Xiao Wu", and he can't say anything like letting them "play" movies to their heart's content, and he has to spend a lot of energy talking to these non-professionals every day.

Of course, he is still like a boiled duck as always, with a hard mouth! Non-professional actors are not familiar with this profession, and they need to be helped to build confidence, and they must be made to trust the director and film crew, otherwise they will not be able to act in this movie or something.

But in fact, every day when he was talking to these people, it was like a quarrel, and the people who were making a fuss were in the anxious and fast Fenyang dialect, and even Wang Dalun, who spoke Fenyang fluently, sounded difficult, not to mention the people who came from the capital.

This didn't take advantage of the gap in filming, Lao Jia was talking to Liang Jingdong and several actors who played Cui's father and Cui brother in the courtyard outside. Yu Liwei, Jacob, and the Japanese producer named Shozo Ichiyama were listening, and I didn't know if they could understand it. He was too lazy to join in the excitement, and he was alone outside and talking to his girlfriend while cooking the fire.

"Squeak!" The door was opened from the outside, and Yu Liwei was seen wrapped in a military coat and running over.

"It's still warm inside, frozen to death outside. He leaned over to the stove and rubbed his hands together to make a fire. Although he and Jacob are both from Hong Kong, one has spent several years in Belgium and the other in the United Kingdom, and they are somewhat resistant to this cold weather.

"What is he talking about?" Wang Dalun hung up his girlfriend's phone and looked into the courtyard.

"Well, I don't understand. ”

"I don't understand what you're making a fuss about, Viagra, do you have smoke?"

He changed his costume, he didn't bring three or five cigarettes, and the kind of cigarette in his pocket that pinched the filter in order to conform to the characteristics of the times, and his mouth was full of tobacco in this puff.

"Give!" Yu Liwei took out a pack of white shells and handed him one.

Wang Dalun took a sip and nodded: "The taste of this white shell is also quite mellow." ”

"This is a special alcohol Sanwu, and the tar content and nicotine are lower than the old Sanwu. Brother, I advise you to switch to this in the future, it is healthier. Yu Liwei said.

"It's healthier not to smoke. Wang Dalun was not used to his superiority as a Hong Konger, so he glanced at him and retorted.

"Well, that's right. ”

After smoking a cigarette, Director Jia finally communicated with the non-professional actors, and when he entered the room, he warmed up a little bit, saw that the time was almost up, and asked inside, "Auntie, are the pants almost?"

"Okay, right away!" the old lady said in standard Fenyang dialect. Gada's voice instantly became faster.

"Okay, everyone, let's be smart, the second game is ready. ”

……

The snowy day predicted by Lao Jia did not come, and the next day began to clear.

In the outhouse, the old lady by the stove is underneath. There was a table next to it, four small benches, Wang Dalun, Cui's father, and Cui's brother, sitting around the table, waiting to eat.

Cui Di broke his head in a fight with his classmates, wrapped in bandages like a wounded and sick, he was wearing a green military uniform, and Cui's father, Cui's mother, and Wang Dalun were all blue. The fashionable clothing patterns of this era and for most of the last thirty years - grass green, blue trousers and wool hats. The only difference is that his pants are bell bottoms, which the old lady changed from the bell bottoms sent by Zhang Jun's aunt from Guangzhou, which indicates that changes are coming.

For this reason, he was also reprimanded by Cui's father, saying, "Can a worker work in these pants, and can a farmer go to the field?"

His response was, "I'm a literary worker, so I don't do this job." ”

In general, Cui's father is strict with his two sons, but the eldest son occasionally talks back, and the younger son only listens honestly with his head down.

When the noodles were cooked, the old lady first served a bowl to Cui's father, the head of the family, this is the rule, and then Wang Dalun. Cui's father was searching his youngest son's schoolbag and had no time to eat.

In the past, according to the rules, the head of the family did not move the chopsticks, and no one else could move first. But Wang Dalun has grown up, worked, and is a literary and artistic worker, belonging to a mental worker, he is very repulsive to this kind of rules, and eats first by himself.

It is said that the Shanxi people make noodles that is a must, and the old lady's craftsmanship is not said, it is all hand-rolled noodles made by the old lady herself. Two spoonfuls of sauce, pour some sesame oil, pour some vinegar, mix it, and stir-fry the meat slices with a large pot of cabbage.

Cui's father took out an iron ruler from Cui's schoolbag.

"What are you doing with an iron ruler?

The iron ruler was decisively confiscated.

The father reprimanded his younger brother, but Wang Dalun just didn't hear it, and ate noodles by himself.

Father Cui took out another villain book and scolded: "Villain book, how old are you?"

I looked at the cover and flipped through it, reading the words on the cover, "Lady of the Camellias, what is the Lady of the Camellias?"

As a literary and artistic worker in the family, Wang Dalun replied: "The woman who sells camellia is called the camellia girl." ”

Father Cui flipped it open, looked at the introduction on the first page, and frowned after looking at it twice.

"Click!" Lao Jia shouted to stop.

"Uncle, read this brief aloud. ”

It wasn't in this script, and I didn't say it before filming, but now everyone has gradually begun to get used to Lao Jia's work style of changing the play from time to time.

"Yes. Father Cui nodded.

"Do it all over again, action!"

The words on the introduction are a bit small, Cui's father is in his fifties, his eyes have long been a little old, and he holds the villain book far away, reading word by word: "Through Margaret's unfortunate life and tragic ending, the whole thing exposes the evil and moral hypocrisy of the bourgeoisie......"

If you read this paragraph in Mandarin, you may not feel anything, but in Fenyang dialect and Cui's father's unique speaking tone, there is a special sense of joy.

“…… The heroine, Marguerite, came from a poor background, and was later forced by life to become a prostitute on the streets of Paris...... Return Paris!

Cui's father slammed the villain book on the table and hit his youngest son the back.

The youngest son had a strong temper, but he didn't dare to talk back, so he could only stand up angrily and leave without eating.

Wang Dalun glanced at it, mixed the noodles in the mixing bowl, and said to Father Cui: "Eat." "It's a persuasion in disguise.

It's just that his expression is a little disdainful, since his father criticized his bell bottoms, he thinks that there is a generation gap with the previous generation. The father criticized his younger brother for watching La Traviata, because the story depicted a prostitute on the streets of Paris, which was unacceptable to their older generation. It's just that he didn't realize that this was not just a generation gap, but a clear crack that reflected the politics, culture and history of this era.

The camera rack is at the door, this is a medium lens, in fact, from the start to the present, the shooting is basically a long lens, a long shot, like today's medium lens is used for the first time. And Lao Jia also extremely limited the movement composition of the camera, without close-ups and hand-held cameras.

This is a new shooting technique that Lao Jia claimed before the camera was turned on, and according to him, this is to objectively show what they exist in front of them and maintain a kind of observation from a distance.

Respect the variety of things that happen in a specific time and space, and freely let events undisturbed, without controlling the audience's gaze and maintaining their viewing autonomy. This is the cinematic language of equality, respect for the individual, and a desire for freedom.

Don't look at what he said so high-sounding, in fact, everyone knows in their hearts that he is paying tribute to his idol Hou Xiaoxian. (To be continued.) )
