Chapter 610: Finding Happiness (Part I)

On the outskirts of Suwon City, in a school that had gone bankrupt two years ago, the crew led by Kim Ki-duk officially settled in yesterday.

I didn't come here to shoot any campus dramas, the second and third floors of the school have been perfectly transformed, and a large part of the story of this movie script takes place in the hospital, but in fact, it is more difficult to apply for long-term filming in larger hospitals, and it is not confidential to go to the filming base of the TV station.

So Li Huanhuan and others finally chose to rent a school to renovate, relatively speaking, the school is more suitable, because there are few buildings of this scale in hospitals, if there is such a scale, it is generally in the urban area, even if it is bankrupt, the building is easy to sell, and there are also some school dramas in the script.

At this moment, in the teaching room on the second floor of the school, it has been arranged into a multi-person ward, with three beds, and a TV is still hanging on the wall, and many staff inside and outside are there at the moment.

Everyone looked miserable at the moment, and everyone's eyes fell on the little girl who was sitting on the middle hospital bed, wearing a white dress and a down jacket, howling and crying.

"Director, can't you contact Su Yuan's mother? If this continues, don't cry, child! Cha Seung-won, who was standing next to the bed, said to Kim Ki-duk, his expression slightly flustered.

For the filming of this advertising film, first, there is the relationship between Jin Xiulu's introduction, and second, Li Huanhuan's script and the product concept of shooting this advertisement persuaded him, plus it is indeed a large-scale production, so he agreed, anyway, Li Huanhuan did not say anything about endorsement, just shooting advertising films, plus Li Huanhuan's company also gave enough price codes, Cha Shengyuan really couldn't think of a reason to refuse.

Cha Seung-won was born on June 7, 1970 in Anyang, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, and became a model in 1988. And thus entered the showbiz. In 1995, he starred in the first TV series "Song of the Wind". In 1997, he participated in the filming of his first film "Seoul Holiday". In 2000, he attracted attention for starring in the movie "Burning City". In 2003, Cha Seung-won won the Best Acting Award at the KBS Acting Awards for "Bodyguard", and won the Best Actor Award at the 39th Baeksang Arts Awards for "Liberation Day Amnesty". In 2008, he starred in the action movie "Revenge". In 2009, he won the SBS Acting Awards Mini Series Men's Acting Award for "City Hall".

As an actor who has debuted for more than 20 years and has been in the entertainment industry for more than 15 years, Kim Ki-duk and others have no opinions on acting. Li Huanhuan is even less of a layman, not to mention that this is still his mention.

In terms of image, aside from the real character and the image created by the work, if you only look at the appearance, he is also an absolutely mature man, especially the temperament of an indifferent urban man, which is the most satisfying factor for Li Huanhuan.

In the advertising script "Looking for Happiness" created by Li Huanhuan, there are three important roles.

The first is Park Bo-young as the heroine, who auditioned for a fashionable and attractive urban white-collar worker, but suffered from a nervous breakdown. A woman who will often have nightmares.

The second is the male protagonist played by Cha Seung-won, a psychiatrist and a psychiatrist who is also Park Bo-young's psychological counselor.

The third one was the little girl next to her who was howling and crying.

The script looks like a redemptive story and is full of some horror elements at the same time, but that's for what really is a movie.

As an advertisement for SAFE's products, it is more like a warning and accusation-like story.

In order to make the filmed things become a topic and become popular, Li Huanhuan's decision was to spend money on special effects. and implanted the very popular "Inception" in my memory, that is "Inception".

Of course, Li Huanhuan didn't have the ability or the time to study "The Interpretation of Dreams". makes the topic of Inception more scientific, and he also has no idea of making it into a science fiction film, and in reality, this movie cannot be said to be a real science fiction film.

What Li Huanhuan has to do is to bring the multi-layered dream into the advertising script he created.

In the setting of the script, Cha Shengyuan is a psychiatrist who is also a member of the American Society for the Study of Sleep. The dream theory in Freud's "The Interpretation of Dreams" is highly respected. After no progress has been made in the treatment of Park Bo-young, who has been plagued by nightmares for a long time and has suffered a nervous breakdown, he proposes to enter the dream world to find the root cause.

Here Li Huanhuan directly borrowed a drug called somnacin and a machine in the dream to stay awake in the dream and achieve the effect of dream sharing, and the story of this qiē in "Finding Happiness" comes from the American dream research provided.

In fact, in reality, it is impossible to enter other people's dreams with drugs like somnacin. But there are some medications that can significantly regulate our sleep, such as Modafinal, which keeps people awake at all times, and newer sleeping pills that put people into "super sleep."

However, Li Huanhuan does not want to make a sci-fi blockbuster related to dreams, to paraphrase the setting in "Inception", Li Huanhuan feels that it is enough.

Similarly, Li Huanhuan did not follow the setting of the dream level, but borrowed the way of dream detachment, and at the same time proposed the side effects of this dream treatment, such as mental damage, brain death, and so on.

In the script, Cha Seung-won and Park Bo-young will enter the dream four times in total, the first time they entered the school, and they saw Park Bo-young at the age of sixteen, the goddess of the school flower-like zài, and when she walked there, she would attract the attention of men, until she was socialized by a handsome guy with the same figure in the school, and then the man in the dream was blackened, and he began to want to kill the two, the handsome guy was brutally dismembered and cut the chicken, of course, it was a harmonious version, and Cha Seung-won found Park Bo-young at a critical time, and helped her regain her lucid consciousness in her dream, The way the ultimatum guò school roof fell left the dream.

The first experience made Cha Seung-won know that Park Bo-young's subconscious is extremely aggressive, and this aggression is not for outsiders, but more like for herself, which is completely contrary to his previous judgment.

I can't be sure about something, and Park Bo-young also decided to solve this problem because of frequent nightmares, so the two of them fell asleep again a week later.

And this time the dream is very unexpected is that the sixty-year-old Park Bo-young lives in a seaside villa, and the whole dream world gives people a sense of loneliness, and this time it is more from Cha Seung-won's perspective, he has been hiding around and watching Park Bo-young's life as a bystander.

Until a woman with a very sexy figure and appearance appeared, and this woman had a quarrel with Park Bo-young, and finally even pulled out the fruit knife on the fruit bowl to kill her, at this time, it was naturally Cha Seung-won who saved her and brought her back to her senses, but it was accompanied by the anger of the sexy woman, and the tsunami of madness, this is where the first CG special effects appeared in the movie, and the special effects of this part, the director of Haeundae is responsible for contacting the team to make zuò, And it was filmed by him and Kim Ki-duk.

The sexy woman frantically chased and killed the two, and when Cha Seung-won came to the time and space, various terrible weapons suddenly appeared, such as ...... Chainsaws.

In such a scene, the two fled to the lighthouse on the coast, and when the tsunami hit, the two escaped from the dream by falling from the top of the lighthouse again.

And Cha Seung-won clearly heard the sexy woman call Park Bo-young's mother.

Returning to reality again, Park Bo-young became eccentric, took the initiative to end the treatment, and did not look for Cha Seung-won again for two weeks, until Cha Seung-won saw the news of Park Bo-young's suicide attempt from the newspaper, and hurriedly found the hospital, and then learned from Park Bo-young's parents that she committed suicide by cutting her wrists a day ago and was found by her mother and sent to the hospital for timely rescue.

And Park Bo-young's parents also knew about their daughter's nightmare after knowing Cha Seung-won's identity, but the two didn't know the reason at all, it stands to reason that Park Bo-young has been a goddess of heaven since school, and she quickly entered the assembly club when she came to society, they really can't think of the reason, but this situation can't be ignored, and finally expect Cha Seung-won, a psychiatrist, to help Park Bo-young recover.

Later, Cha Seung-won saw the silent Park Bo-young, but to Cha Seung-won's surprise, this time Park Bo-young hoped that Cha Seung-won would take the initiative to help her fall asleep, but did not say any reason.

But Cha Seung-won also wanted to help the girl, and finally chose to accompany her to her dream again.

And this time, the dream that the two entered was the spiral corridor scene being built in the United States, but it was not a hotel in the dream, but a hospital......

In this scene, Cha Seung-won sees only busy doctors and nurses, some isolated patients with severe HIV, and many middle-aged people and young men and women arguing, and there is a sense of life in a variety of situations.

But I didn't see Park Bo-young, and after looking for a long time, I saw Park Bo-young crying outside the operating room, and she kept saying things like 'I'm sorry' and 'it's late'.

To Cha Seung-won's surprise, this time Park Bo-young was completely awake and entered the world of dreams, and even had a strong sense of purpose, just when he walked up to ask the reason, the whole space darkened, the lights disappeared for a few seconds, and after the light was restored, the surrounding doctors, nurses, and patients all disappeared.

Only the traffic lights on the operating room kept flashing and exchanged, and there was a child's voice calling for mom that made people feel chills down the spine.

The lights went out again, and after a few seconds, a little girl wearing a white dress with loose hair and holding a doll appeared at the door of the operating room, probably only five years old.

Such a dream was very weird, Cha Seung-won had a chill down his spine, but Park Bo-young raised his head excitedly, and stood up and walked towards the little girl. (To be continued......)
