Chapter 153: The Beginning (1st Update)
Now that everyone is still immersed in the music, it took a while for He Yi to regain his composure and re-host the premiere.
Please invite the rest of the main creators, with Guo Donglin and Fan Wei, two veteran comedy masters, present, even if you want to be cold, you can't be cold. chatted nonsense and had the sense of watching the Spring Festival Gala sketches, and gradually recalled the souls of the audience flying away, winning a round of applause.
After the interview, "The Great Exercise" officially premiered.
The screening room was instantly dark, and only the bright big screen in front of it remained.
A burst of gongs and drums sounded of the national musical instrument music, and several children with little radish heads laughed and laughed, and the opening animation of the shadow puppet show appeared again, compared with Huayi's heavy opening film, the opening animation of the family film industry gave people a feeling of pure oriental flavor, which was particularly comfortable.
Bai Baihe sat upright, this is her first movie as a heroine, and it is inevitable that she will be apprehensive when it is released. Tang Yan sat next to her, the two girls were as good as ever, and they had to watch the movie together with their arms.
Liu Tao on the other side is not lacking in concessions, after all, it is the first time he has shown it on the big screen, and his nervousness is really not comparable to a TV series, no wonder everyone wants to make a movie.
The beginning of the movie is brighter than the original "Live Spontaneously" shots, and the colors are more abundant.
starts in the form of animation, with three lines and three painting styles, stringing together Hu Yifei, Guo Donglin and robbers. At this point, the audience is not surprised, because "Crazy Stone" has been overplayed.
It's just that the characters are cartoonized, and a lot of funny cartoon actions can be made. Bursts of laughter gradually followed. Hu Aman's cartoon villain dressed up in a serious manner, tidied up his tie, put on a police uniform, polished his leather shoes, and meticulously polished his police badge and hat, which also highlighted the character's character. Guo Donglin's cartoon image of a bald fat man whistles and is complacent, fixing his hairstyle, spraying perfume and so on. In the middle, there are also three pictures of bandits with blurred backs and smoky scenes, holding sharp weapons in their hands and dark backgrounds, and they know at a glance that they are not good people.
The ingenious opening with cartoon character paintings is also an innovation, giving the audience a relaxed and pleasant feeling.
The picture keeps progressing, the cartoon characters gradually enter reality from the animated world, the real characters walk out of the big screen, the robbers pass by the police, and then rush into the bank, "Bang~!" A gunshot rang out, and the picture froze here.
On the big screen, the title "Bank Robbery Exercise" is played, Hu Yifei's work, and the following line of English art font A-Yifei-Hu-Fiml.
He'd wanted to label it for a long time, and this time he finally got his wish.
The picture begins with a tattered scarecrow in a rice field, and the camera gradually zooms in, using a dazzling kaleidoscope lens many times. It not only captures the beautiful scenery of the rice fields, but also highlights a cool feeling. It can be seen from here that the top photographer Zhao Xiaoding and the imaginative Hu Yifei have a very different shooting technique from the original "Live Spontaneously", and they are better at using lens language to create an atmosphere.
The characters have not yet appeared, just a few shots and a relaxing background music, which brings a cheerful enjoyment to the audience.
Zhang Yimou was also surprised, Zhao Xiaoding has cooperated with him many times, but he is not like a person who likes to play with cool kaleidoscope round lenses, it is estimated that it was Hu Yifei's idea.
The first few minutes are not very funny, Hu Yifei plays a serious traffic policeman Hu Aman, and when he meets Guo Baomin, a rookie police chief, he is very unsympathetic to the ticket. Some of the scenes after that can be regarded as a simple explanation of the background of each character.
The protagonist of the movie, Hu Aman, was forced to be transferred from the Investigation Bureau to work as a traffic police officer in the process of investigating a case related to the mayor because of his serious work, and the police chief was also dismissed. Since then, the law and order situation in their police district has been very chaotic, and there have even been cases of robbers robbing banks. Looking at the flattering attitude of these police officers when the new chief arrived, we can see that they have used their efforts in the wrong place, and they are naturally helpless in the face of robbery.
However, the new director also has his own little abacus, and his plan is to be promoted and leave here after working here for half a year.
Faced with frequent bank robberies, he came up with a plan that would kill two birds with one stone, and the success of the plan would not only deter the robbers, but also improve the image of their police force, paving the way for his rapid promotion. The solution he came up with was to make a realistic robbery drill.
The exercise is an exercise after all, and as long as the "robbers" played by the police in the exercise are "subdued" as planned, or "surrendered" or even "killed", the exercise will end quickly. According to the director's prediction, they will be able to deal with the "robbers" in more than 30 minutes at most, so that even if the SWAT team arrives, it will not be useful. The exercise started as scheduled under the careful arrangement of the director, but unexpectedly failed to end as scheduled.
When arranging the role of the exercise, Hu Aman was originally drawn for the role of patrol officer.
This new director is too keen on the realism of the exercise - the more realistic the better, thinking that on the way to office, he was still fined by Officer Zheng for violating the rules and regulations to show his identity in the open field, so he specially arranged for him to play the role of a robber in this exercise.
Hu Aman, a serious policeman, showed his seriousness as always, and Chairman Mao taught us that we are afraid of the word "serious" in the world.
It took more than ten minutes, and I quickly explained the background of the story, and quickly turned to the main topic.
In "Mobile Phone", the first twenty minutes are very funny, but the back is not funny. In "The Big Exercise", on the contrary, except for the opening animation, no funny scenes were deliberately arranged in the first ten minutes, and the rest was full of jokes. But even in the first ten minutes, the scenes shown are not ugly, because the screen switching is fast and the progress is fast, which makes people can't take their eyes off it.
The officials held a serious meeting, and the bank bosses received the notice of the drill and called a meeting of their subordinates.
From superiors to subordinates, every meeting is a formality.
At first, it was a long official tone, and then the people below read the notice document with a perfunctory "uh-huh-hmm". all make the audience feel that there is something really happening, and the government departments in their eyes are like this.
Feng Xiaogang was happy, "This kid really dares to shoot, this is not a simple sidekick." ”
Wang Zhongjun said: "This can easily pass the trial, and it is not simple!" Is the scale looser? Feng Xiaogang thought for a moment, if this is the case, then his next police movie may be much easier.
Hu Yifei was favored by the director and specially selected as a "robber", and then the whole person was restless. saw that on the big screen, Hu Yifei checked the information seriously, read comics, watched movies, and took notes seriously. When I go to the toilet, I hold a book and read it carefully. We also went to various banks to conduct field trips. In the end, he chose a set of equipment for himself, and covered his face with funny stockings, just as his mother pushed the door and walked in, and the whole person fell to the ground in a panic. I guess I thought my son was perverted.
"Hahaha......"
Seeing his serious gesture, the audience was happy, and they already had a premonition that something interesting would happen next.
Hu Yifei listened to the bursts of laughter that had begun to come from behind him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl. When filming "Crazy Stone", due to budget constraints, Hu Yifei could only save and save carefully. When filming "The Great Exercise", although the shooting speed is extremely fast, the quality is not relaxed at all, Hu Yifei has become a lot more courageous after experiencing the tempering of the first film, and has used a lot of film techniques from later generations, at least in terms of lens use and atmosphere creation, Hu Yifei's "The Great Exercise" is much stronger than the original.
