Chapter 1118 Different Meanings and Values
In a cold world, there must always be a ray of sunshine to warm even a small corner, or to apply a little warm touch to cold skin.
The role of the reporter is completely fictional, and it is obvious to the audience that such a pure and genuine person full of warmth does not exist. In order to highlight the strength of this role, it has not been designed as a female reporter, but as a male reporter.
The design of this part in the script has been applauded by all professionals who have read the script. It is not a question of the male and female positioning of the role, but Chen Hao dares to think and dares to use it. You must know that this also involves a problem in reality. There are many female artists in Huanju Times, and there are many female artists who have cooperated with Chen Hao and maintained a very good relationship. Such a reporter role appears in the last paragraph. Female reporters have their own advantages and are more likely to produce a warm feeling. It is more appropriate to set this role as a woman in terms of emotion, reason, public and private.
But Chen Hao did not play it this way. He wrote it as a male reporter. It seems that the difficulty has increased and it seems that it requires the actor to perform more deeply. In fact, when this paragraph is really shot and the material is watched, everyone knows why he made such a choice.
Coldness is still the theme of this play.
Even at the last moment, he was unwilling to give everyone a feeling that he was deliberately warming up. He just said that there is such a kind of warmth, and whether it is accepted does not depend on the warmth itself, but on those who should accept it.
The coldness of the whole play remains unchanged.
Wang Leehom, the artist who Chen Hao thinks is most suitable for the image of "warmth", was invited to play the reporter who saw the truth at the end but no one believed him.
The story of the final ending was reversed. Wang Leehom saw different versions of who the murderer was. He got four answers from the four people in this family. He wanted to keep himself warm and be chilled to death by four different degrees of coldness. This is the ending of the movie.
Wang Leehom walked out of the school where his children were, looking at the warm sun in the sky, but subconsciously tightened his woolen coat. The snow on the ground and the cold wind that rushed in were telling him a fact that this cold winter is still here.
From Wang Leehom's last perspective, in four different degrees of reversal, we saw the child coming home from school, his mother making dinner, his grandmother watching TV on the sofa at the door, the snow in the yard was easily cleaned, and the whole house remained clean and tidy.
The perspective changed, at the corner of the alley, Chen Bin, the undertaker who had just finished work, came over, his cotton shoes creaking on the snow, his trousers straight, his windbreaker neat, and his cotton scarf exuding warmth.
He walked closer, facing the camera, which was Wang Leehom's perspective, smiled and nodded, passed him by, and walked into the house...
In the afternoon, the reporter had just been to the funeral home, where he brushed shoulders with the police and met this man. The rhetorical question and smile were the last memory and the reporter's nightmare. The four people told him in four ways, what can you do? Relying on imagination, our family of four can all become the author of best-selling novels.
The camera shook, from bright to black and white, and with a click, the whole play ended.
…………………………
January 15th.
The filming of "Departures" was finished. The crew did not take a break for half a day on Christmas and New Year's Day. The more they filmed, the better the actors felt. The little girl played Chen Bin's daughter. She only needed acting skills in two places. The rest of the shots were just her eyes, and then pulled away a little to shoot her expressionless face.
Every actor who filmed this play was reluctant to leave after the filming was over, unless there was something urgent that would make them leave for a few days, and they would return immediately when they were free.
It's not that the acting skills of the actors in "Departures" are invincible in the world. In fact, such dark movies have not dared to play such strong and direct ones in China. Chen Hao didn't even plan to hide anything. Cruelty is cruelty, not just simple killing and blood. The cruelty of human heart is the most terrible. It is so cruel that you have nowhere to put your heart, and you feel that you will be wiped out by this cruelty wherever you are.
One main line and more than a dozen branches.
The acting skills of the actors are certainly important, but more importantly, the story that these things gather together is rigorous. Since Chen Hao used the Hollywood model, the final product of the script did not have any extra content. The plot was one page per minute, and the final ending was more than four minutes long, and the whole play was 118 minutes long.
The filmed materials were cut according to the script, and only the scenes shot from multiple angles were kept with one shot. Then they were processed in the later stage. The whole play was really only 118 minutes long, which was exactly the length of the script.
How to start and how to end, all of them were in Chen Hao's mind. On the day when the whole play was shot, the whole film had already appeared in his mind. He didn't care about anything else, and gave up the second rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala. No matter what the outside world said about him, he went into the post-production studio and led the team to fight for more than 60 hours. He didn't close his eyes and edited the whole play in the way he thought was most ideal.
Compared with the previous editing that had to be compared with the version in his mind, this time his editing was easier. From beginning to end, he was involved in every link and corner of the whole drama. His depth of understanding of the plot allowed him to control it easily. There is no need to think about the expression of each movie language, how each shot should be presented to the audience, what color tone, what kind of background music to match, and how to connect the pictures. Just follow the performance of the movie frame by frame. From the first minute to the end, his mind was like going through a sieve, going through it over and over again. If any shot was not handled properly, he didn't need to carefully look at the effect. He could tell at a glance that it was not going to work. , modify it immediately.
It took more than sixty hours to complete the post-production of a movie. This is not a big Internet movie, nor is it one of those shoddy works. This is everyone's perception that this may be Haozi's last film with China as the background color in the past few years. movie, he has proven himself on the international stage, and will be filming more movies in Hollywood in the future. This movie is well-made, and the two big scenes are built on real scenes. Even though the plot is fixed in a small scope, every scene is The characters with more than ten scenes were all selected by Chen Hao himself, and no scenes were allowed to pass by in the slightest.
When Chen Hao came out of the studio, his eyes were sunken and his hair was a little messy. Filming this movie required special effects makeup. His hair was grown longer from the previous short cut to ensure that a middle-aged man in his forties should have the look. status.
This was close to three days and three nights of fierce fighting. The only thing he wanted to do after coming out was not to sleep, but to satisfy his stomach that had been wronged for three days with delicious food.
"Uncle and aunt are here."
"Then go home." Then Chen Hao called his mother. Qiao Xinmei immediately started preparing meals after receiving the call from her son. When the family saw the somewhat decadent Chen Hao, they were shocked. The eldest sister, Chen Yu, and her family came over to stay for a few days. God, I will go back for the Chinese New Year and go to my brother-in-law Ma Defu's house to celebrate the Chinese New Year. My nephew is now running around. Looking at the uncle who is the closest to me on weekdays, I don't dare to go up and let him hug me, especially because he exudes the feeling of staying up all night and working hard. That unique smell, you say coffee and Red Bull taste good, but you really have to drink it for three days without changing clothes or taking a shower. Even if you smoke very little, you will still have a very bad smell.
"Hurry and wash your hands, dinner will be served soon." Qiao Xinmei felt sorry for her son. In her hometown, the Chen family has long been a famous family in Meicheng. The family business is now a well-known enterprise in the city. Every year, there are various public welfare activities and charity events. In terms of donations, the Chen family is among the best.
All the glamour, everyone knew clearly who it came from, not only the funds provided by Chen Hao, not only his personal fame, but also the road paved by Tian in Meicheng. It is these connections that can make the family happy. Several industries there are developing better and better.
Who does all the glory come from?
This man in Yanjing, when Qiao Xinmei saw her son so tired, she almost shed tears of distress. Chen Hao said I should take a shower before eating. Qiao Xinmei wiped her tears secretly several times in front of her mother-in-law, and even With no place to vent his anger, he vented his anger to Chen Yuanping: "My son gave you everything you enjoy and drink at home. Look at my son, are you embarrassed?"
Her words took a different form in Chen Yuanping's mouth, and became even more harsh, and were transmitted back to Meicheng through the eldest son-in-law's mouth. It is true to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade, but you must know that once the big flag at home falls down, you will be nothing. Seeing his son working so hard here, Chen Yuanping also felt heartbroken. The gang at home had decided to tighten control after returning home. No one should be allowed to do anything that goes beyond the limits, and no one at home would be allowed to do anything. The rear area will bring any negative impact and trouble to Chen Hao.
In the bathroom of the room, Xiao Di asked Chen Hao to sit on the jade stool, washed his hair and took a shower, pressing his gentle hands in his hair to make him more comfortable.
"Hold on for a while if you're sleepy. Your parents have made pancakes for you. They're all your favorites. After eating, go to sleep."
Seeing Chen Hao's eyes closed, Xiao Di felt very distressed.
He opened his eyes with a smile and wiped off the shampoo foam that fell on his forehead: "It's not as serious as you think. I'm happy. Three days of work is nothing. Later, I became more and more excited about the production, so I smoked a few cigarettes. "Smoke, I'm so happy that I don't think about anything. I want to share my joy with everyone. I should have found a hotel to take a shower and sleep before coming back."
Xiao Di motioned him to close his eyes, adjusted the water temperature with the shower head, and helped him rinse his head: "Will you be scolded this time?"
She asked at this time, even though she didn't expect him to answer right away. The water mixed with the shampoo foam was washed down from his head, and he couldn't open his eyes or speak.
Chen Hao twitched the corner of his mouth but said nothing. You all don't know the true meaning and value of this drama to me, and it doesn't matter if I get scolded.
