In the history of cinema, long takes are seen as a revolution in montage.

For a long time, the long-shot school and the montage school were like water and fire, the former criticized the latter for being "anti-film" and "unable to reflect the reality of life", and the latter believed that the long lens "ignores the concentration and generalization of art" and "abandons the infectious power of art".

In the end, no one can convince anyone, but the unique charm of long lenses attracts a large number of directors and photographers to try it tirelessly.

Zhang Yimou is also a master of using long shots, and he has used a lot of long shots in films such as "Yellow Earth", "The Red Lantern Hangs High", "Alive" and "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree".

Seeing that Zhang Yimou was interested, Zhang Yuanjun said his idea: "When we were writing this childbirth scene. Zhang Yuanjun flipped the script back to the front, "It started from Zhou Ning's amniotic water broke here, until the child was born, and this paragraph was written at that time when I had a long shot in my head." "The screenwriter will definitely take these into account when writing the book.

"How long do you estimate this shot to be?" Zhang Yimou said.

"About 25 minutes." Zhang Yuanjun said a very exaggerated figure.

In the 109 years of Chinese cinema, there has never been a director who has used such a long shot.

Let's not believe it or not, Zhang Yuanjun said, the longest long shot in the history of Chinese cinema, this challenge alone deeply attracted Zhang Yimou.

To make a movie, to be a director, if you don't even dare to think about this, then change careers as soon as possible.

Zhang Yimou didn't know if he could do this long shot, but he was willing to give it a try.

Zhang Yimou glanced at Zhang Yuanjun again, this young man is really bold.

The long-shot director is cool, but the actor is very uncomfortable.

As an actor, Zhang Yuanjun actually took the initiative to propose to the director to shoot a long shot, which belonged to him to find guilt for himself.

Zhang Yimou made it difficult to revise the script in this way: "I think about it again, this long shot looks very interesting." ”

Zhang Yuanjun and Li Qiang left Zhang Yimou's studio.

The next day, it happened to be a small year, and a record publicity form of the Film Bureau appeared on the Internet:

Record project number: Film and drama preparation [2014] No. 0371.

Title: Fragments of a Woman.

Filing unit: Guangxian Pictures Co., Ltd.

Screenwriters: Li Qiang, Zhang Yuanjun.

Filing result: Permission to shoot.

Place of filing: Zhibei.

Synopsis: Chen Jianyu and Zhou Ning are in love with each other, because they gave birth at home, the newborn died just after birth, and the huge sadness and pain enveloped the couple, and the relationship between husband and wife also fell to the freezing point, and Zhou Ning's mother decided to sue the doctor in charge of the delivery, in this accident, where will the family go.

This was a very ordinary record announcement, but because Zhang Yuanjun's name appeared in the screenwriter column, it became unusual.

Liu Yifei fans are ecstatic.

"Hahaha! I originally didn't have much confidence in Sissi's work directed by Zhang Yimou, but now it's different. ”

"Zhang Laosan will definitely recommend Yifei to the director, with this relationship, director Yimou will definitely focus on Yifei."

But Zhang Yuanjun's screenwriter does not mean that Zhang Yuanjun has the final say, there are still many actors who are still attacking Zhang Yimou.

But with the announcement of the film's filing, more news about the crew has also been known in the circle.

A melon-eating account informed netizens of the news he had found:

"Although "Fragments of a Woman" is a literary film, this film is very popular in the circle, one reason is of course director Zhang Yimou, and the second reason comes from the investment company behind the film, the lineup of companies standing behind this film is very exaggerated, dominated by Glossy and China Film, Hong Kong Island's Anle Pictures, the mainland's Maoyan Pictures and LeTV Pictures are all involved, as well as the network support of Weibo and iQiyi, as well as the entry of French film capital, such a capital lineup, Zhang Yimou can pull up in China."

"The cast has not been decided, at least the male and female lead actors have not been decided for the time being. Zhang Laosan has a lot of energy, but he can't say anything in the face of such a capital lineup, he can only take the trouble to recommend his fairy wife to the director, whether it depends on the director's meaning and the capital game behind it. ”

"Many actresses in the circle are competing for this film, and as far as they know, Shuangbing has ended, and there are several actresses who are not as well-known as Shuangbing but have good acting skills are also fighting for the role of Zhou Ning."

It seems that the news of melon-eating bloggers is not necessarily true.

Zhang Yuanjun has no intention of paying attention to the outside world's speculation about "Fragments of Women" these days.

Because since the news that he was the screenwriter of the film was announced, many agents and artists have come to take his relationship.

Of course, they thought that Zhang Yuanjun would focus on recommending his wife, but they all thought that Liu Yifei was not suitable for Zhou Ning, and Zhang Yuanjun did not have so much energy to shoehorn Liu Yifei who was not suitable to Zhang Yimou.

If the artist is filming outside, the agent or partner comes.

are all mixed in a circle, Zhang Yuanjun can't say anything too ugly, and after seeing a few, he coped with it.

"Fan Bingbing asked you to have dinner tomorrow night?" Xiao Zhao came to inform the new guests.

"Didn't she shoot "Wu Meiniang" in Hengdian."

Xiao Zhao said with a smile: "People rushed back, can't you see it." ”

"Let's just say I'm not in the capital." Zhang Yuanjun has been a little annoyed with eating and drinking these days, "I'm just a screenwriter, I don't have that much ability." How good it is to go through the relationship and find a director. ”

Xiao Zhao said: "Your identity as a screenwriter fooled the layman, fooled them?" ”

Zhang Yuanjun didn't speak, and rolled his eyes.

Xiao Zhao said: "Then I pushed it for you?" ”

"Push it." Zhang Yuanjun got up and took a cup of hot water for himself, "Book a ticket now, let's go to Xingzhou." ”

"Okay."

But Liu Yifei didn't buy her husband's visit: "Are you here to visit the class or are you here to escape the disaster?" ”

"It's so ugly," Zhang Yuanjun disagreed with Liu Yifei's statement, "Then who am I for?" ”

"Good, good, for me, for me." Liu Yifei said with a smile, "My husband has worked hard, and when I finish filming this drama, I will treat you well." ”

Seeing that Zhang Yuanjun didn't seem to be interested in rewarding, Liu Yifei said again: "I'll buy you a new PS4." ”

Zhang Yuanjun's eyes lit up.

"You pick 10 more games, and I'll pay for them."

"Thank you, thank you." Zhang Yuanjun held his wife's hand and kept thanking.

It's not that he can't buy it, but as a stinky game, Zhang Yuanjun enjoys this feeling of picking up cheap. The release of new games is expensive, and he also scolds the street, every year there is a big promotion, he rushes to the front, 20 yuan less than he is as happy as picking up gold bars, and his favorites are also full of games that he wants to buy but is reluctant to buy. Proper X-wire mentality.

"Breathless." Liu Yifei sometimes doesn't understand these hobbies of boys, "I'm almost 30 years old, and I still play games." ”

Zhang Yuanjun didn't answer her: ""Miss Bai" really couldn't be filmed a year ago? ”

"I don't know, no one wants to stay in the crew during the New Year." Until now, Liu Yifei doesn't know the specific progress.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yuanjun accompanied his wife to work, and Xiao Zhao came over helplessly and said: "Li Bingbing arrived in the afternoon, saying that he was here to visit Xue Xiaolu's class, but you probably can't run." ”
