Chapter 257: Yang Lan (I)

"Thank you, thank you. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info" The first to take over the microphone was the lead actor Guo Li this time.

"I'm very happy to have everyone here for this premiere. The filming of this film was made from the very beginning of the investment. is still the best in the selection of actors, I believe everyone has seen it in the film just now. I just want to say that this is a good movie, a movie that is worth watching, and I hope you can recommend it to your friends and family so that they can watch this film together, thank you. ”

Guo Li's words were short and simple, but they spoke to the essence. After the filming is completed, the actors are naturally most concerned about the box office of the movie and the media's comments on themselves, and it is reasonable for Guo Li to canvass votes on the spot.

And the next person to pick up the microphone was naturally Chen Ge. Chen Ge didn't say anything this time, but praised a few actors by name. and said in front of many media that he hoped they could still be in the next play.

After the director finished speaking, it was naturally the turn of the remaining main actors, and the audience did not hesitate to applaud when everyone came on stage.

After the broadcast of "New Police Story", many film critics have expressed their feelings about "New Police Story" on the Internet.

Chen Ge's loyal fan and five-star film critic Radish posted a film review on the Internet, "The emotions surging in my heart are secretly flowing, like a piece of music that can't find a way out but is playing very clearly." When Chen Ge cried, I cried too.

The story is a flashback, the protagonist is Guo Li, from the beginning of the high-spirited to the later decadence and cheer up, did not impress me too deeply, although it is undeniable Guo Li's acting skills, but in front of Chen Ge and Yang Caini, they are a little overshadowed.

At the beginning of the movie, the atmosphere is already quite tense and dignified. And throughout the film until the end, there is always a faint sadness, with gratification. Good people end well, and bad people die or get hurt.

The women in the story, even the protagonists, are just interspersed with pushing the story and emotions forward little by little, and Yang Caini looks calm from beginning to end. The role played is the fiancΓ©e of the protagonist, her brother, who is also a policeman, died in that robbery, Guo Li can't face her sad unhappiness even singing a birthday song, the calm when Chen Ge put a bomb, and when Guo Li was about to defuse the time bomb, she said: I know you might think I'm stupid when I ask you like this, do you love me?

I love you in this life and in the next. Women need to be affirmed, not only in action but also in words, she has no regrets and is brave because of his words. I think I like Guo Li's feelings for Yang Caini in this movie. Withholding and unassuming, but life and death are shared, nervous about everything about her. So even in the end, countless policemen half-knelt down and collectively proposed to Yang Caini, and there was a large scar on her slightly turned face, but it was related to happiness.

In the new police story, Chen Ge finally got rid of the previous youthfulness, even if the role in this film is so youthful, but his acting skills have been perfected. The edges and corners are open, and after being beaten, he wiped his mouth full of blood but looked happy. His character lives in the shadow of his father, which is very thick, and his psychology is no longer normal. Dad is a policeman, he doesn't care much about his son, more about beating and scolding, and he is also an accomplice of several young people, and he also has a prominent family. What the family could not give them was the warmth and comfort of the heart, so they chose to do the exciting and dangerous continuous bank crime. Somewhat ironically, the end of these young people: the only girl who was injured was kissed by his beloved Guan Zu and then shot to death, the other saw his parents and chose to abandon the game and hurriedly escaped from the elevator only to be killed, and Guan Zu raised the gun towards his biological father is still very ironic because there are no bullets in the gun.

Chen Xiaofeng's disappearance, appearance, evoked memories and the coat he always wore, and his consistent smile. Each plays its own role well, in this less than perfect world. And so the story began. ”

Radishes's film reviews resonated with many audiences as usual, but the hottest movie reviews on the Internet came from a little-known father.

"I watched 'New Police Story' again. Dressed in a white shirt and black suit, and bright red gloves, Guan Zu stood under the pure blue sky, covering his wounds, grinning, crying and desperately raising his bulletless gun, pointing at his father, who was angrily walking towards him and pointing at his nose and scolding, and then, he was hit in the chest by a police bullet and staggered and fell off the roof.

The image was so clean and beautiful that I would even blame the rest of the shot for coming too quickly.

Every time I look at this shot, I can't hold back my tears. Azu's last crying face will be fixed in my mind for a long time, making me forget that he is the criminal who used murder as a game, found excitement in doing bad things, hurt too many innocent people, and was constantly tracked by the police. At that moment, he was just an aggrieved child, his eyes full of pain and despair of disappointment.

I've always been sad about this look on his face.

Frankly, I also run away when I see bad boys. They are troublesome, dangerous, and lack moral restraint. I also see them as outliers. But what if this bad boy is my child?

I always wish I could be a father who reassures his children. I hope that no matter what difficulties he encounters, the thought of having me will be full of strength, because I can always support him; I hope that whatever he has done wrong, he will dare to come and be honest with me, for I will not be eager to rebuke him without listening to his reasons; I hope that no matter what kind of trouble he has in his heart, he will be willing to consult with me, because I will understand that he is willing to listen to him, and I hope that I will always treat him as an equal person like me, educate him and guide him, but care for him, be considerate of him, and give him room for respect and freedom.

I was scared to see the hollowness and numbness in Azu's eyes when Azu's father hit him, or the shrinking tremor in Azu's eyes as a child, would one day appear on my child's face.

So, if my child is a bad child, can I be the only person in the world who doesn't abandon him?

Bad children also have hearts, and they will love and crave love. Otherwise, why couldn't even Azu, who could shoot his brother without hesitation, not bear to kill his father who beat him and scolded him and gave him countless injuries and disappointments?

I know that being a parent is not an easy task, so I can't ask any parent to do more. But I hope that parents will not only be the ones who raise their children, but also treat their children as if they were like themselves. I wish I could. ”

When Chen Ge saw these movie reviews, he knew that the role he played this time was successful again!

Three days after the premiere of "New Police Story", Shi Zhimin told Chen Ge that he helped him take a good talk show, which is very different from the last appointment with Lu Yu, because this interview show, from CCTV, is the most watched interview program in the country.

Interview with Yang Lan

・・・・・・

・・・・・・

"Among the directors after the fifth generation of directors, there is such a director, and he is called the sixth generation of directors. He has made films with very different styles, often creating precedents in the history of Chinese cinema, starting with his first film in 2007, in less than three years, he has broken many records. ”

"He is one of the youngest directors in China and the world, and he is the first director from Hong Kong to achieve a box office of more than 500 million yuan in the mainland. The total box office of his movies has exceeded 1.5 billion, and he deserves to be a super director. ”

He is Chen Ge, a 24-year-old film director, the first director to be called a master of commerce and a master of literature. It is an honor to invite Chen Ge to the scene today. Welcome Chen Ge. ”

On April 6, "Interview with Yang Lan" began to be broadcast on CCTV, as the most high-end talk show in the mainland, it has a wide audience and has been widely praised. And what is aired today is an interview with Wan Xiaohu, the most popular director in the mainland entitled "The Movie in the Eyes of Chen Ge (Part I)".

From the beginning of the show, it has attracted a large number of audiences, including fans who have scolded or survived Chen Ge.

In the TV, amid the applause of the audience, Chen Ge, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, walked calmly to the table in the studio.

"Hello, Chen Ge."

"Hello, Yang Lan. Hello everyone. Chen Ge shook hands with Yang Lan, and then sat down on the chair.

"I used to think you were handsome when I watched you in movies, but now I realize that you look much better than on TV."

Wan Chen Ge raised his eyebrows: "Everyone says so." ”

"Haha." The audience laughed.

"Just from Xiangjiang?"

"Yes."

Yang Lan asked: "Many people are very strange, saying that Chen Ge, your ancestral home is from the mainland, how could you go to Xiangjiang to make movies?" ”

Chen Ge nodded: "I'm sorry to say, I went to Xiangjiang because I couldn't find any good jobs in the mainland, so I went to Xiangjiang to try my luck." ”

"Everyone knows that you took over the film directed by Lu Liang by chance in Xiangjiang, but the reason for making the movie later is not well understood, did you decide to make a movie after the script was already written?"

Chen Ge said: "Yes, in fact, under the influence of director Lu Liang at that time, I also wrote a script for a literary film, that is, "East Evil and West Poison", and then I looked at the script, and after revising it back and forth a few times, I wanted to find a director to make this movie, but no director was willing to take over the filming, they thought that there was no market for literary films. Later, I looked at my script, and after reading it for a long time, I felt that it was not too difficult to shoot, and I had already acted in a few movies at that time, and I knew the process of making movies, so I boldly approached Director Lu Liang and said that I wanted to try to make a movie. ”

"In this way, you are also forced to be helpless, not that the outside world is rumored that you have planned to make a movie."

"No, no, I've always felt that my current abilities are still insufficient. If you go to an unfamiliar film industry system, make films, your culture and thinking, there must be some resistance, if you can't create films with ease, your ability is not enough to overcome these resistances, you go, there will definitely be problems. ”

"A lot of people say that you're making movies in all styles now because of your self-confidence, and now it seems that you still have a clear understanding of yourself and haven't inflated yourself because of your previous success." Yang Lan spoke very tensely, all these conversations were not rehearsed, but I had read the interview script before.

After a pause, Yang Lan changed the topic again: "At the Xiangjiang Film Awards held last year, "Infernal Affairs" and "East Evil and West Poison" won a number of awards, including heavyweight awards such as Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay and Best Actor. But unfortunately, you didn't win Best Actor at the Academy Awards, what do you think about that? ”

At last year's Hong Kong Film Awards, "Infernal Affairs" and "East Evil and West Poison" were a bumper harvest, winning 12 nominations, and winning many awards such as Best Picture, Director, Screenwriter, Leading Actor, Supporting Actor, Editing, and Original Song. "Infernal Affairs", "East Evil and West Poison" and "Super Divine Seal" competed on the same stage, and "Super Divine Seal" only won a few technical awards, which can be said to be completely defeated by Chen Ge's movie.

It was an opportunity to be in the limelight. It's just that Chen Ge didn't win the title of actor at that time, which is a pity after all, although Chen Ge still won the Best Actor at the later Xiangjiang Film Festival, but the Best Actor award is heavier.

Thoughts turned back to "**** Interview".

Chen Ge said: "It is expected that Liu Dehua can win the best actor, although Liu Dehua won the best actor at the Academy Awards, but no one can change the fact that "Infernal Affairs" is a double actor, and the director of "Infernal Affairs" is me, which no one can change. ”

"You are indeed as rumored by the outside world, with the spirit of a young man." After Yang Lan's words were finished, the camera switched to a narrated film.

This is the style of "Interview with Yang Lan", an interview interspersed with a story.

"Chen Ge, who was born in 1985, came to Xiangjiang alone after graduating from university, and met director Lu Liang in the second year of Xiangjiang.

The movie screen of "Wild Boy" was playing in the picture, Chen Ge looked at the waves in the distance, "In 92, I dropped out of school to start the first job in my life, and worked for more than two months, my right leg was almost crippled by the machine, leaving a scar that followed me for seven years, but I didn't earn a penny, I asked the boss why, and he said that the money to show me my leg has been deducted from my salary." That's when I learned a truth. Money is hard to earn, is hard to eat. In '93, I went to work on the mainland, and there were two men in the factory who were seven years older than me. To be honest, life is not good, whether you are tired or not is secondary, the important thing is to be insulted, and those two people are the root. I was slapped by the collar more than once or twice. When I was holding the machine on my mobile phone, I once thought about killing these two people, but unfortunately and fortunately, I have a depressed personality, and I obviously have thousands of tigers, leopards and jackals in my heart, and I always have to close them in the end. I often look into the distance and think that a good life will not let you understand what it is to be enterprising, and cruel experience can teach you how to live without being physically and mentally exhausted. I don't know how much suffering awaits me in my future, but I know that I will be able to get through it and temper myself to become a big guy, that's the truth. ”

In fact, there is one sentence I didn't say, I, Zhao Xudong, have come to this day, and I have understood a truth, being a person and doing things, three points of truth and seven points of falsehood, two points of deliberate and seven points of hypocrisy, and one point is deliberate. All in all, it doesn't matter what you do, it doesn't matter how hard or soft it is, it's important to make it look like you're serious to outsiders.

The success of "Wild Boy" has made Chen Ge, who is handsome and has a high return rate wherever he goes, embark on the road of showbiz. In the same year, he filmed the second movie "Black Wangjiao", playing the role of a villain in the play, and director Mu Hai greatly praised Chen Ge. ”

The picture switched to the movie screen of "Black Wangjiao", and Wang Shijian, played by Chen Ge, opened his eyes and burst into a nervous smile without warning.

After that, Chen Ge wrote the script "People in the Rivers and Lakes", which was filmed by director Mu Hai, which caused a large-scale sensation in Asia, and for a time Chen Haonan became a model of righteousness in the hearts of many young people, causing a scramble to follow suit. The box office of the movie is also excellent, setting a box office record for Chinese films, exceeding 400 million. ”

The picture switched to the movie screen of "People in the Rivers and Lakes" again, Chen Ge, Chen Xiaochun and a group of five people walked on the streets of Xiangjiang, and the background music was a superstar in troubled times.

And the film that established Chen Ge's title of film master is "Infernal Affairs". After the release of the film, it achieved outstanding results in the box office of Chinese films in the mainland and the box office in Hong Kong, and won many awards such as the Golden Horse Awards, the Best Director, the Best Film, and the Best Actor, and the word-of-mouth box office. ”

"The fortune teller said that I was a ...... who would succeed and ten thousand bones withered" The movie screen became "Infernal Affairs", Han Dong sent his younger brother to the police academy as an undercover agent in the temple, and Chen Ge stood in the crowd.

Bang la blah. The camera cuts back to the scene.

It looks coherent, but it's actually edited. There was a pause in the middle of the interview, and then the audience applauded.

Yang Lan said: "I calculated, you started filming in 07, and it has been more than two years now. And you have six films that have been filmed and released, and now the sixth "New Police Story" is still being screened, when is the seventh film planned to be made? ”

"Soon, the script is already in the works."

"With the completion of the script conception and the filming time, you should be able to complete it in half a year with your high production, which means that you have created seven works in less than three years. Let's count the works you worked on as screenwriters and producers, wow, that's a huge project, no wonder you say you're busy. ”

Chen Ge shrugged: "I am now inspired, always thinking about taking advantage of my youth and energy. to create more works to come out. ”

"Do you feel tired? If it were on me, I'd be exhausted. ”

"It's like we're in PE class and you're asked to take a run, and you're tired. But if you play basketball or football, you don't feel tired when you're sweating. Interests keep you focused and energized. ”

"That's the truth. But I still want to praise you, you have done so many things, and they are all so successful and excellent, which is absolutely impossible for people to do. There is a detail I have always wanted to ask, that is, the original "East Evil and West Poison". You say it's a low-budget literary film that was shot in two months? ”

"The script was written earlier. To be precise, it took 56 days to shoot the shot, and the entire shooting cycle took less than three months. ”

"Fifty-six days, that's a little too fast, isn't it?"

"Actually, it's not very fast, it only took me two months to shoot "Infernal Affairs", and some movies don't require a long production cycle."

"Ask for fans and friends, what is the theme of the new movie?"

"I don't know this very well, because I make movies more casually, and many times the script has just been written and started shooting, and the genre may not have been decided at that time."

As soon as the words were finished, it was another feature film.

"Chen Ge in 2008 was busy and criticized. In the title of film master, the mainstream media and some audiences reacted fiercely. Some people think that Chen Ge is not a master yet, and some people think that Chen Ge's outstanding performance in the film field is enough to be competent. ”

The movie footage of "Infernal Affairs" was shown on TV, Liu Dehua was handcuffed, Chen Ge held a gun to his head, and Hong Kong Island and the blue sky were in the background.

"This year, the controversy over Chen Ge has also reached its peak......"

Back in the studio, Yang Lan asked with a smile: "Chen Ge, I have a ****** you published on Weibo here, let me read it to everyone." 'I'm Chen Ge, I'm in Xiangjiang, and I'm filming...... This is me Chen Ge, one of the most unique directors in the world! 'A very personal letter, is that what you think from the bottom of your heart?' ”

Chen Ge laughed: "I wrote it impulsively, and it's quite funny to think about it now......" (To be continued.) )
