Chapter 448: The crew gathers
Today's meeting room at NRG is the first crew meeting since the project was finally named "To Our Dying Youth".
In addition to the film crew, the main actors of the film were also present, Qin Jiu who played the male lead Chen Hyo-jeong, Han Hyo-joo of the heroine Jung so-yeon, Lee Jun-hee of the male number two Lim Jing-cheol, Sung Yo-ri of the female number two Han Jing-eun, and the two roommates of the male protagonist, Kong Yoo and Heo Kyung-hwan, and the heroine's two roommates Shin Ji and Yoon Eun-hye, the male protagonist's admirer Kim Tae-hee, and even the cameo Han Ga-in were present.
Originally, Yoon Eun-hye was not in the cast list of this movie, but the actor who was set to play the heroine was very realistic, and even some money-worshipping roommates suddenly had a car accident, and Park Jun-yong did not discuss with Lee Jun-hee, and directly pulled Yoon Eun-hye over to the top post.
Speaking of which, in addition to Lee Jun-hee, Yoon Eun-hye is another actor who has participated in the filming of the youth trilogy, in "The Little Thing of First Love", she played a bad student who always bullied the heroine, in "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", she played the heroine's good friend, and now she is starring in Park Junrong's movie for the third time, although they are all supporting roles, but with this report card on the big screen, Yoon Eun-hye's development will definitely be smoother in the future.
Similarly, Kim Tae-hee would not have played this role, but for the same reason, she also appeared in Park Joon-yong's movie for the second time.
In today's meeting, in addition to meeting the crew members, the most important thing is even the role analysis, which Lee Jun-hee knew before. Korean actors rarely work on the role itself before playing a role, and often play it on the side. While pondering, in this way, the speed of integrating into the character will definitely be slow.
Therefore, from the beginning of "The Little Thing of First Love", Lee Jun-hee has asked all the actors to hand in their homework before the filming of the movie starts. Conduct a comprehensive analysis of the role you want to play.
Of course, the protagonist today must be the screenwriter Lee Jun-hee, after all, no one knows better than him. Every character in this movie too.
Everyone is busy, and Lee Jun-hee didn't waste time, Park Jun-yong first made an opening remark and handed over the right to speak to Lee Jun-hee.
Lee Jun-hee collected the character analysis that everyone had prepared. After reading it. Overall, I am satisfied, at least everyone has a more comprehensive understanding of the role they will play.
In particular, Qin Jiu and Han Hyo-joo not only analyzed the roles they will play, but also made a comprehensive analysis report on the context of the entire movie according to their own understanding.
It can be seen that whether it is Han Xiaozhu or Qin Jiu. For this appearance, they all attach great importance to it. After all, the Korean film and television industry is not in a good mood right now, especially in terms of films, which have been hit by Hollywood blockbusters, and in recent years, there have been few film works that have been able to succeed at the box office.
However, with the exception of films directed by Park Junyong and written by Lee Jun-hee, the previous "The Little Thing of First Love" and "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" have all been proven at the box office and word of mouth.
Being able to star in Park Junrong's third work will undoubtedly be a great improvement for their acting career.
In general, although this movie is divided into two parts, most of the whole movie is on campus, and most of the contradictions and entanglements are also caused by campus events.
The main line of the movie is undoubtedly the love story between the heroine Zheng Xiuyan and the male protagonist Chen Xiaozheng, but the story begins with the story of Zheng Xiuyan and her childhood sweetheart next door brother Lin Jingche.
After Zheng Xiuyan entered the university campus, she met the hero Chen Xiaozheng by chance, but she became mortal enemies with him, and the two of them hated each other, attacked each other, and fell in love with each other.
Then Chen Xiaozheng gave up love for the sake of his future and chose to study in the United States, and the love story between the two was suspended, note that the story is only suspended here.
After three years, Chen Xiaozheng returned from school, and Zheng Xiuyan also changed from a student who didn't know the taste of sorrow as a teenager to a white-collar worker in the workplace.
Chen Xiaozheng, who is confident that Zheng Xiuyan is still in love with her, is returning home from the United States, and Zheng Xiuyan, who has always been entangled, suddenly chose Lin Jingche, who has little explanation in the play, and hopes to marry him, but at the last moment, Zheng Xiuyan left again.
At the end of the story, Jung so-yeon's final choice was not explained, only conjecture was left, which is also what Lee Jun-hee's previous two movies have in common, leaving enough room for people's imagination.
The whole story revolves around this main line, in which Jung so-yeon's roommate Han Jing-eun, Lee Xiao-young and Park Ji-eun are the story of the three, and the male protagonist's two roommates as a side line.
As the male number one in the movie, the character of Chen Xiaozheng is quite complicated, at the beginning, it is easy to attribute him to a good man, but later, for the sake of the future, Chen Xiaozheng chose to leave, thinking that after the movie is released, many people will think that he is a negative person, in the play, he himself said this: "You just treat me as a negative person." ”
However, in the environment at that time, his choice was correct, Chen Xiaozheng cannot be said to be an upright person, but he is a very ambitious person.
Before Chen Xiaozheng fell in love with Zheng Xiuyan, he had an inexplicable relationship with the daughter of the vice president, and when the other party knew that Zheng Xiuyan was attacking Chen Xiaozheng and wanted to take him away, he asked Chen Xiaozheng: "What is our relationship?" ”
Chen Xiaozheng replied, "They are very good friends." ”
Chen Xiaozheng later told Zheng Xiuyan that he knew the feelings of the vice president's daughter for him, but he had been trying to convert this relationship into friendship.
But why didn't Chen Xiaozheng tell the other party, nor did he say it to any of his other classmates?
Chen Xiaozheng went to the United States for three years, married and had a daughter with an American woman, and in his conversation with Zheng Xiuyan after he came back, he also made it very clear that he was using this woman to get a green card.
It can be seen that Chen Xiao is a person who is good at using women. Although he was not with the daughter of the vice president, he also obtained a place to go to the United States that the other party gave him.
After arriving in the United States, he also knew about using women to get green cards, in general. He was a utilitarian man, not an upright man, but not a bad man.
At least when he was with Zheng Xiuyan, Chen Xiaozheng didn't have any place to use Zheng Xiuyan, and he was beaten up for Zheng Xiuyan for offending a rich man with a high status in the dormitory.
Chen Xiao loves Zheng Xiuyan exactly, but in this way. Most people disagree, he thinks that if he loves someone, he must give that person enough material things. Give him what he thinks is a happy life, his thoughts are pure, and he is not pure, and he would rather hurt in the beginning. Wait until you come back to make it up. I don't want to block my future and start enjoying the joy of the painful end.
Chen Xiaozheng doesn't know the meaning of being attached to someone, so in the play, there is such a paragraph in the conversation between her and Zheng Xiuyan.
Chen Xiaozheng said: "Everyone is obviously an independent individual, how can one person be so attached to another person? ”
Zheng Xiuyan replied: "Replace you with me, just one day, and you will understand!" ”
Chen Xiao loves Zheng Xiuyan. For he once said, "If I have any conscience left, I know that you are the only one I have ever loved!" I even felt like a reptile. Only the time with you is walking upright. ”
But Chen Xiaozheng didn't know how Zheng Xiuyan loved him, and he didn't know how much Zheng Xiuyan loved him.
Even if there is no future, not even freedom, Zheng Xiuyan will accompany him all the way.
Some people may say that this is the case in love, and when reality strikes, such as no money to buy a house, no money to buy a car, no money to raise children, etc., Zheng Xiuyan will keep complaining about Chen Xiaozheng.
Maybe it's right to say that, Lee Jun-hee, the screenwriter, doesn't agree with the approach of Chen Xiaozheng he created, but he does not deny that Chen Xiaozheng's approach is correct in this society, selfish, but safe.
The role of the heroine Zheng Xiuyan, when Li Junxi was creating, couldn't help but like it, she is a very cute woman, and she is also a stupid woman, stupid and cute, and she loves completely, once she loves, she is desperate to pursue it, whether it is Lin Jingche's ignorant love, whether it is family-like love, Chen Xiaozheng's dead face, and her love that never leaves, she loves it very thoroughly.
For the sake of love, Zheng Xiuyan can give up everything, for love, can be desperate, in her opinion, as long as there is love, the world is beautiful.
Zheng Xiuyan is a good person, even when she reprimands her subordinates, she thinks for the other party, she is different from her good friend Han Jingen, she is not cowardly, she will chase after her love, even if that person has a girlfriend, she can pursue it desperately.
She can even be shameless, she can ignore other people's opinions, and she won't take into account the reality in the future, so she went without hesitation, so she got the happiness she wanted.
Zheng Xiuyan has a line: "We should all be ashamed, because we all love ourselves more than we love love." ”
There is precisely such a person who loves love more than himself.
There is no doubt that Jung so-yeon is such a person.
"No matter whether there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire or an abyss ahead, I will move forward without hesitation."
Zheng Xiuyan is such a lovely woman, and in the end, she still loves Chen Xiaozheng.
"Chen Xiaozheng, we spent our youth together, no one owes anyone, youth is used to remember."
After her friend Han Jingen's car accident, Zheng Xiuyan suddenly asked Lin Jingche to marry her in pain, in fact, Zheng Xiuyan was afraid, afraid that she would fall in love with Chen Xiaozheng again, she thought that she would be like Han Jingen, she could lose everything, even her life, for love.
The damage Chen Xiaozheng gave her is irreparable, Lin Jingche's scar is on her hand, but her scar is in her heart, she has a hunch that if she falls in love with Chen Xiaozheng again, then that scar will be scratched again, but she no longer has the righteousness of the year, she is no longer so selfish, she should be grateful to Chen Xiaozheng, it was he who made her understand what she said to the dead Han Jingen: "You only have so much sacrifice for love in your life!" You've achieved your goal, are you satisfied? You will make all those who love you hate you! You're sorry everyone! There is nothing else in this world besides love! You are so selfish! I look down on you! ”
The story should end with Zheng Weilin's quiet love, but Zheng Wei left. Because she suddenly understood: "Love is like a river, who doesn't cross the river by feeling the stones?" ”
Male No. 2 Lin Jingche, when creating this script. This character is the one who brings Lee Jun-hee the most entanglement, more entangled than Chen Hyo-jeong's choice between love and bread, but maybe Chen Hyo-jeong has not been entangled, because he thinks his way is right, and he doesn't know what kind of feelings he has for Jung so-yeon from beginning to end.
And Lin Jingche is different from Zheng Xiuyan, at first they were childhood sweethearts, but later he "went to the United States". In fact, it was because he discovered his father's adultery with Zheng Xiuyan's mother. love, he has a hurdle in his heart, and he can't forgive his father and Zheng Xiuyan's mother. I can't forgive Zheng Xiuyan, but I can't let go of Zheng Xiuyan in my heart, so I pretend to go to the United States, but I return to the campus from time to time to take a look at each other.
A chance encounter with Zheng Xiuyan a few years later. During the conversation. Lin Jingche told Jung so-yeon the truth, and also told Jung so-yeon that when he saw her and Chen Hyo-jeong's smile together, he felt that he couldn't give Jung so-yeon the same happiness, so he chose to leave.
And because of this departure, he met another woman who had entangled him for many years, this woman was called Han Xiuzhen, Han Xiuzhen left Lin Jingche with a scar, an indelible scar. So in the end, Zheng Xiuyan also found out, so. Jung so-yeon chose to leave.
In general, Lin Jingche's character is cowardly, and he does not admit his love for Jung so-yeon or Han so-jung.
Of course, this is Lin Jingche's entanglement, and Li Junxi's entanglement lies in whether to keep this role when he was creating it, and he even wanted to delete this role several times, because Li Junxi sometimes thinks that Lin Jingche has no need to exist in this drama.
It's not that this role doesn't need to be, it's that Lee Jun-hee sometimes thinks that Lin Jingche doesn't need to appear, just hide it all the time.
It is in the creative process of this drama that Lee Jun-hee has been entangled in it, so the portrayal of this Lin Jingche is more side-by-side and obscure, and he does not even describe Lin Jingche's love for Zheng Xiuyan, but completely introduces the sadistic love between Lin Jing and Han Xiuzhen at the end.
When the script was revised later, Lee Jun-hee really had the intention of deleting the role of Lin Jing-cheol, but because of Park Jun-yong's relationship, he finally retained it, according to Park Jun-yong, the vague handling of Lin Jing-cheol and Zheng Xiuyan's emotional line can reserve space for the audience's imagination, and at the same time portray the sadistic love between Lin Jingche and Han Xiuzhen, which can echo the sentence that Zheng Xiu-yeon said when she left: "Han Xiu-jung is more suitable for you than me." ”
In fact, the love between Lin Jingche and Zheng Xiuyan was over by the time he left, and it can even be said that Lin Jingche has never had much influence on Zheng Xiuyan, Zheng Xiuyan found out that after Lin Jingche went to the United States, a crying scene ended, and the focus of that crying scene was still for Han Jingen's character description.
When Lin Jingche appeared three years later, Zheng Xiuyan's emotional balance was tilted in favor of Lin Jingche, not because she found out that the person she loved was Lin Jingche, but also because she found that she was still in love with Chen Xiaozheng, and Han Jingen's death made her see one thing clearly, that is, it was too worthless to die for a little man.
This sentence was said by Zheng Xiuyan to Han Jingen, and it was also said to herself, which was actually Zheng Xiuyan's own feelings.
In this world, there is nothing else besides love!
This is the reason why Zheng Xiuyan turned to Lin Jingche.
Han Jing-eun, although she is the second female lead, there is no doubt that this role is very important, her death awakened Jung so-yeon, and at the same time, Han Jing-eun is also an important explanation of Lee Jun-hee, a screenwriter's concept of love, and an indictment of the existing values of this society.
Speaking of Han Jingen, I have to talk about another person one by one, Zhao Shiyong, who is Han Jingen's boyfriend, the opposite of this play.
The love between Han Jingen and Zhao Shiyong has always been envied and even jealous at the beginning, Han Jingen is such a beautiful and refined woman, which has attracted countless men to scream, but she only loves her little boyfriend until one thing appears.
Zhao Shiyong enlarged the belly of one of his female classmates, and in a panic, he came to Han Jingen's side for the first time, lying in Han Jingen's arms and crying.
Han Jingen borrowed money from her classmate and took the female classmate to the hospital, but the man named Zhao Shiyong didn't even show up.
When Han Jingen went back, he said to Zhao Shiyong: "Go back, I'm in the car, I won't blame the past, and I won't take the next example!" ”
Maybe this sentence won't attract too many people's attention, but the meaning of this sentence should be that Han Jingen is not to blame in the past, so Zhao Shiyong really can't make an example?
After the whole script, there was no space between Zhao Shiyong and Han Jingen, until three years later, Han Jingen said to Zhao Shiyong in the car: "I'm pregnant." ”
Zhao Shiyong's disgusted expression and words made Han Jingen completely dead, and chose to leave Zhao Shiyong, and soon found another man who loved her to marry.
Soon, Zhao Shiyong came to Han Jingen and invited her to watch the live concert of the band she liked when she was young, Han Jingen was late because she couldn't get a taxi, and she was in a hurry to cross the road and was hit by a car and died.
In addition to Han Jingen's college friend, there are two men hiding their faces outside the door, Zhao Shiyong and Han Jingen are about to get married, Zhao Shiyong also looks painful, he doesn't love Han Jingen, he is just used to Han Jingen's doting on him, his weakness, and his humility.
Han Jingen is a woman who is not stained with mud, strong and weak, smart and stupid, she is strong in the face of love setbacks, but her weakness to men has caused the tragedy of her own love, so her death is inevitable, such love, it is better to die, she is like what she herself said, when it comes to love, no woman has an IQ.
