Chapter 153: Not a Dream
The female star named Song so-yeon is also very famous in South Korea, and when her social networks paid attention to the incident, Korean netizens immediately expressed their support.
"Huaguo is really disgusting! Blatantly snatching our country's pipa is simply infuriating! ”
"Ahhwakook is really the country I hate the most, they have a lot of smog, and they are often blown by the wind to our Republic of Korea, which causes the air in our country to be not good."
"The few people who participated in this competition were really good! Because the organizers of the competition do not respect us, then there is no need for us to pay attention to this competition, and withdrawing from the competition is the best counterattack for them! ”
"In fact, our country doesn't pay enough attention to it! Why does Xiuyan say that at present, in our country, there are only two masters who can play the pipa, isn't it because we haven't treated our traditional culture well? will be snatched away by the people of China, although the people of China are hateful, but we also have a certain reason. ”
"If it weren't for the fact that the Japanese occupation era disappeared for a period of time and spread to Huaguo, how could Huaguo have a pipa now!"
"It's better to apply for the World Heritage Site like the Dragon Boat Festival! As long as it is inscribed, we can announce to the world that whether it is the Dragon Boat Festival or the pipa, it is the intangible cultural heritage of the Republic of Korea! Even if the Chinese people are shameless, they can't snatch it away! ”
Just when this wave of applying for the Pipa World Heritage Site was becoming more and more fragmented in South Korea, the Bolai Documentary Contest officially kicked off.
With the scoring booklet on the table and three large screens in front of it, the presenter begins to introduce the theme of each documentary, the judges look at the screen, the overhead lights go out, and the sound of the sound plays back in the auditorium.
The American team's "Dawn and Darkness" tells the story of school bullying incidents in high school campuses dominated by American youth culture, this documentary is not only to restore the current situation of campus bullying from the victims, but also the perpetrators, the stories behind the perpetrators, each perpetrator is not as glamorous and responsive as on campus, some of them grew up in single-parent families, and their mothers neglected their children's communication for their livelihoods; Some parents are addicted to drugs...... The story behind each perpetrator makes people think deeply about the phenomenon of school bullying.
"Old Friends" sent by the French team, the old man who lost his wife and lost his son in his later years, the satisfaction of material life, corresponds to the poverty of the spiritual world, the story of the old man who lost his independence and a dog watching.
The posters are all impactful, such as "Old Friends", the lively scene of Christmas and the silence of the old man sitting alone in front of the fireplace, the stark contrast makes people think about life. In the poster of "Dawn and Darkness", it is a gloomy and rainy weather, and in the center of the picture is a tombstone, the girl in the tombstone photo wears thick eyes and smiles happily, but she has completely laid in the cold grave, and in her voice the most gorgeous flower season, she passed away, which is a victim of school bullying......
As for "Repair the Old as the Old", which should be submitted by them, its poster is really not impactful compared to the previous realistic themes.
What's more, in the style of the poster, they also collided with Sun Yun's "Pipa Whispering" by their group.
Ying Ru sat there quietly, watching the four entries slowly play on the big screen, the first of which was "Dawn and Darkness" by the American team.
This film is also very good, after all, the works that can enter the Bolai finals must have bright spots, and the idea is also very good, not only from the perspective of the victim, but also from the perspective of the perpetrator, the two lines are parallel, but the fly in the ointment is that the theme is not deep enough, which is a pity.
The second film to be shown was "Old Friends" by the French team.
The protagonist of the film is an old man over eighty years old, his son died in the peacekeeping operation, his wife also passed away ten years ago, the old grandfather has only a golden retriever dog that has been raised for thirteen years, and the thirteen-year-old golden retriever is already a long-lived old man in the dog, it has been accompanying the old man, the whole documentary is very warm and moving, especially in the end, the old man fainted at the door of the house, was bumped into by the neighbor and sent to the hospital by an ambulance, the golden retriever dragged the old and weak body, and forced through ten blocks, found the hospital where the old man was beaten, and the warm reunion of one person and one dog in the hospital ended the film, but where is the road in the future, whether the old man leaves first or the golden retriever leaves first, it will be a fatal blow to the remaining one......
The film of the French team is very moving, the emotions are in place, but the main line is unclear, the sub-themes are not handled well, and there seem to be a lot of things to be told, whether it is the story between the old man and the golden retriever, or the son of the old man who died in the peacekeeping operation, or the old man's deceased wife, so many things want to be told, but there is no clear distinction between the main and the secondary, like a hodgepodge, all thrown together.
The third film to be played is "Pipa Whispering" sent by Jiangnan Film Academy.
Unlike them, Sun Yun's documentary, the theme is not the future of traditional culture under the impact of Western culture, but an old man who is over the age of old, but still has a good demeanor, her life and the pipa bit by bit, from the Republic of China period to the old age, the pipa occupies an extremely important position in her life, the theme of the documentary, but also to the small, an old man in the modern changes of China, her life.
After Sun Yun and their group's film was played, Ying Ru's palms were sweaty.
When she watched American and French films before, she didn't feel a lot of pressure, after all, she saw the deficiencies in those two films, and she could see the deficiencies, which means that in the eyes of the judges, there may be more flaws, but "Pipa Whisper", whether in terms of interests or time span, is on par with the films in their group, and even, Ying Ru selfishly thinks that "Pipa Whisper" is better.
At this moment, Bai Wenyuan saw Ying Ruyi's nervousness, so he stretched out his hand and patted her shoulder, and said softly: "Our film is better." ”
Immediately afterwards, they began to play the film "Repair the Old as the Old" that should be their group.
At the beginning of the film, there is a solemn memorial service, which is the memorial service of Mr. Tang Wenbin, a master of Peking Opera.
The gloomy sky was dripping with a light rain, and the people who came to the memorial service were all dressed in black clothes with sad expressions, at this time, the camera turned to a school, and the students in the school were performing Mr. Tang Wenbin's most famous excerpt "The Drunken Concubine", in order to express their grief and respect for Mr. Tang's death.
On one side is the passing of life, and on the other hand, the children, who symbolize hope, are performing "The Drunken Concubine", alternating between the old and the new.
The whole film tells four stories in two lines, Du Chengqi, a veteran of Peking Opera, Tao Tao, the youngest Hua Dan Tao in the Peking Opera School, Qin Sizhe, the only male Dan in the Peking Opera School, and Meng Xi, the best harlequin in the school, these four characters, whether it is the conflict in the family or the gap between ideals and reality, all show the inheritance problems faced by Peking Opera in the era of entertainment in the heyday.
The beauty of Peking Opera, young people are no longer interested, there are few audiences in the small garden, compared to the lively and prosperous concert, the most embarrassing scene in the film is the open-air stage, there is only an old man on crutches in the venue in front of the stage, staggering to listen to the play, singing and playing on the stage, babbling and singing about life, but there is only one audience under the stage who has turned white.
The stage is festive red, under the stage is the snow, the old man's crutches and footprints, on the snow seems particularly lonely, not far away, across the street, is the lively stage, the people on it are enthusiastically singing pop songs, the stage is surrounded by a bustling crowd......
At this moment, a little boy trotted over, he put on a thick cotton coat for the old man, the grandfather and grandson looked at each other and smiled, the little boy looked at the "Farewell My Concubine" on the stage with a smile in his eyes, he slowly followed Yu Ji on the stage, and gently sang the lyrics, the young man's voice looked particularly beautiful in this empty square, and the lyrics on the stage contrasted with each other.
That's inheritance.
This pair of grandparents and grandchildren is the only male Dan in the art school, Qin Sizhe, and his grandmother.
With scenes of embarrassment, the film finally came to an end. The female voice of the narrator sounded at the right time, but it was very simple, without sensationalism or preaching.
"This spirit passed down from generation to generation is soaked in the bones of the nation, and our culture can last for 5,000 years. And they, in their twilight years, watched the future and waited, and the flame of inheritance was never extinguished......"
When the film ended, there was silence.
It wasn't until a long time later that Ying Ru suddenly heard the applause of one of the judges, and gradually, as if he had been led, the other judges also applauded, and even the people from the American team and the French team also stood up.
"Perfect film." One of the judges praised in French.
Ying Ru stayed there in a daze, until Sun Yun looked back at her with a smile, and she realized that their film seemed to have conquered the judges, although the results have not yet come out, but just looking at the performance on the spot, it seems to be a very good sign.
waited until the applause stopped, and then she whispered to Bai Wenyuan beside her: "Did I dream?" ”
Bai Wenyuan listened to her words and said with a smile: "It's not a dream, it's true." ”
