Chapter 226: Chongqing Forest

July 20th.

This day is Chen Qiming's birthday, and it is also the day of the premiere of "Chongqing Forest".

At noon, Chen Qiming attended the premiere of "Chongqing Forest".

The scale of this premiere is still very large.

Tony Leung, Leung Ka-fai, Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, Wong Zuxian, Maggie Cheung and others were all present.

Even Liming, he specially flew back from the mainland to attend this premiere.

The filming of "Fengyun" has entered the later stage, because Chen Qiming temporarily left the group, resulting in the filming of Liming also entering a slow period.

Therefore, after receiving Wong Kar-wai's invitation, he also chose to attend this premiere.

You have to admit that although Wong Kar-wai is not treated well by the producers, on the actor's side, most of the actors still have a good relationship with him.

Some of them are because they have collaborated, and some people want to catch his line and star in his movies.

Dawn! He should be the first kind.

Just some time ago, when Chen Qiming and them were filming "Chongqing Forest", Liming and Li Jiaxin were also invited by Wong Kar-wai to shoot a "Fallen Angel".

This movie and "Chongqing Forest" are actually the evolution of the same script.

When Wong Kar-wai gave Chen Qiming and others a holiday, he made up this drama by the way.

Because he had cooperated, after receiving Wong Kar-wai's invitation, Liming also ran over.

The premiere of "Chongqing Forest" was the same as Chen Qiming's previous premieres, gathering at the hotel and then leaving for the cinema.

Because it is not a drama produced by his own company, compared with the previous "New Love", Chen Qiming is not too busy.

After arriving at the cinema where the premiere was made, he sat in his seat and didn't even say a few words on stage.

At half past twelve, the screen went black and the movie began to show.

"I have to admit that Chen Qiming's talent in acting is not inferior to his singing.

His explanation of this role is very good! ”

"Indeed, his performance gives me a feeling that he is not inferior to Tony Leung!"

"However, this Wang Jiawen is not bad! I didn't expect the acting skills to be so aura! ”

Chen Qiming has two famous film critics in the back row.

Not long after the movie began, the two began to discuss in a low voice.

It just so happened that the words of the two reached Chen Qiming's ears word for word.

Hearing this, Chen Qiming couldn't help but smile.

It's quite pleasant to be recognized for your performance.

The only pity is that the plot of this film is too mysterious.

Chen Qiming paid attention to the audience in the back row, and many of them seemed absent-minded and didn't seem to have any interest in the plot of the movie.

Judging from the performance of these audiences, Chen Qiming has a hunch that the box office of this movie may not be too high.

After paying a little attention to the audience's reaction, Chen Qiming turned his attention to the movie.

Aside from the plot that people don't understand very well, this play is indeed very good in terms of artistic value.

In terms of plot, if you study it carefully, you can also find a lot of points worth studying.

There are two main lines in the whole storyline, and the two main lines seem to be unrelated, but there are some subtle connections in them.

Many of the objects that appear repeatedly seem meaningless, but these objects are subtle in their meanings.

For example, the canned pineapple that is about to expire in the first story and the salad in the second story.

Canned pineapple is like Ah Wu's feelings.

But canned pineapples will eventually expire, just like the relationship that Ah Wu experienced with the killer, and it will expire in the end.

Expired canned pineapples are no longer fresh, but they still taste like pineapples when eaten.

This is like a lot of relationships that are facing the end, obviously they have tasted like chewing wax, but they are always reluctant to give up because of the beautiful love in the past.

In the end, Ah Wu still gave up those expired canned pineapples, which also means that he gave up those past feelings.

then said the line that Chen Qiming thought was very classic:

"If memory were a can, I hope it doesn't expire; If I had to add a date, I would like it to be '10,000 years.'" ”

Well, this line is obviously Liu Zhenwei's line modeled on "Journey to the West".

In "Journey to the West", Stephen Chow's Monkey King said something similar to Zixia.

In the second storyline, the policeman, also played by Chen Qiming, has been buying chef salad for his girlfriend.

When he offered to buy fish cutlets for her and change the taste, his girlfriend also offered to change the taste. What was replaced was not a chef's salad, but a relationship.

In addition to a variety of more subtle and metaphorical plots.

The film's footage is also a highlight.

Those who don't understand only feel that their brains hurt when they see it, and those who understand it will feel differently.

In the film, the rotation of the camera is different for different people.

Wong Kar-wai uses the lens to portray the inner emotions and states of the characters.

The camera of the policeman Ah Wu is shaky and erratic, which shows the emotional changes after his lovelorn.

He frantically saved up the expired canned pineapples, trying to redeem the last emotion from the old things.

When the camera turns to the mysterious blonde female killer, that is, Lin Qingxia, it is very stable and no longer shaky.

With Lin Qingxia's swaying figure, you can feel the powerful aura and stable emotions of this woman.

When the girl in the fast-food restaurant sneaked into Chen Qiming's house to tidy up for her, the camera fluttered back and forth, as if expressing a state of sleepwalking.

Such a snail girl really seems to be a dream.

With the flickering of the lights in the movie, it is easy for the audience to get lost in the movie, resulting in a sense of chaos and confusion.

The more than one-hour film was screened quickly, and Chen Qiming and other main creative teams began to take the stage for interviews.

Chen Qiming is still sought after by reporters as always.

As soon as he took the stage, reporters immediately asked him questions.

"Ming Tsai, we can see that your performance in this movie is becoming more and more skillful, and I seem to see the birth of another king of acting.

I would like to ask, will you try to focus on the film career in the future?

Because we've noticed that you've produced significantly more movies this year than in previous years.

"Whirlwind Kid", which was released some time ago, this "Chongqing Forest", and then "Fengyun", which you are filming in the mainland.

In all three movies, you starred as the main character.

It's already a big difference from the previous two years when I only played a supporting role in a few films. ”

"Not necessarily, I value the choice of script.

The reason why I have filmed more this year than in previous years is that the scripts are very popular with me.

At the moment, my focus is definitely on records.

As you may have heard, I'm planning to release an English album.

I hope to break into the English market! ”

Chen Qiming took the microphone and explained.

As soon as they heard about Chen Qiming's record plan, the reporters below immediately became interested.

"Ming Tsai, can you tell us more about your English records?"

"Ming Tsai, there are many people in Asia who have gone to Europe and the United States, but they have failed.

Even Jackie Chan has failed frequently, do you think you can do what others can't? ”

"Why not? I think my record sales speak for themselves, and I am confident that I will make a name for myself in Europe and the United States. ”

In the face of doubts, Chen Qiming showed the strong self-confidence of the first person in the Chinese music scene.
