Chapter 163 "A Day Trip to Sweet Dreams" And "Lost Orphan" (34)

"After more than 20 years of marriage, Mr. Fan, a former best-selling author, gradually lost his inspiration, and his marriage with his wife also turned red. His wife cheated on him, and he also lost his enthusiasm for life..."

"After a quarrel, Teacher Fan was kicked out of the house by his wife. Confused and lost, he found the "Good Dream One-Day Tour" founded by his friend, hoping to restore his life when he first met his wife in 1982. Scenes to reminisce and find the feeling of love.”

"At the beginning, Teacher Fan was a person who no longer believed in love at all. He told the staff that the person who made his heart beat had been dead for many years, and after entering the scene, he had been constantly provoking the actors. At that time, he seemed to be the sober person in a crazy drinking party. What he wanted was not love, but just wanted to recall the feeling when he was young."

"Afterwards, Teacher Fan changed. He began to believe in love. Not only did he believe in love again, he was also lost in this belief. His love has changed from loving his wife in his youth to loving the wife who played his young wife. That actress…”

Hearing this, Zhang Guoli couldn't help but interrupt: "This is very good, more in line with reality!"

Feng Xiaogang was angry: "Stop talking... just keep going, how can you get over this?"

Shen Xudong continued: "This story is called "Good Dream Day Trip"... It is about marriage and life. Of course, my life experience is relatively shallow, and I have only deduced half of it... Regarding the ending, I have imagined two possibilities,

The first is that Teacher Fan took his wife on a one-day trip to experience the dream. He calmly accepted his wife's cheating, and when he returned to the original scene with his wife, he also showed the same feelings when they first met. Such excitement and happiness, but when his wife threw down the scarf and walked out of the restaurant according to the scene back then, Teacher Fan immediately did not rush to pick it up. Instead, he lit a cigarette first, and he seemed to see the young woman again in a trance. actor, then suddenly sobered up again. As if I was waking up from a big dream, I laughed at myself, then put out my cigarette and shouted "checkout"..."

"Didn't you pick up the scarf?"

"Well...he still can't pass his level."

"What about the second ending?"

"Teacher Fan picked up the scarf, and the two looked at each other and smiled..."

Feng Xiaogang shook his head: "Then the cheating can be deleted! No man can accept his wife's cheating calmly!"

"Then why did the two of them quarrel?"

"Children's education, family of origin...maybe brother-in-law...didn't your parents quarrel?"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "My parents are very loving...my uncle works in a hospital, my younger uncle opens a hardware store, and my dad gets goods from him...we have a very good relationship..."

"It can be said..." Feng Xiaogang nodded: "You have been in a happy family since you were a child, so you don't understand these things. In fact, when a couple gets divorced, apart from one party cheating, the most important thing is trivial matters in life..."

"So talking about the seven-year itch..."

Han Shanping interjected: "Is this just a story?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "I just thought of one..."

Feng Xiaogang was a little disappointed: "It's just a mid-life crisis theme..."

Zhang Guoli said: "Xiaogang, if you make this, I think the box office will be at least 50 million! To continue the glory of "Party A and Party B", let's call it "A Dream Day Trip"!"

…

The topic revolves around "Good Dreams One-Day Tour"...

Han Shanping and Zhang Guoli were both trying to persuade Feng Xiaogang to film this.

Feng Xiaogang himself finds it boring. He has filmed the TV series "A Place with Chicken Feathers" and the movie "A Sigh", both of which were about middle-aged men's arrogance...

I don’t really want to take pictures!

Shen Xudong was a little... confused. Shouldn't we be talking about "The Lost Orphan"?

Forget it, he needs to eat something...

The hot pot we ate was a big pot with a thick and white soup base. Shen Xudong happened to be hungry, so he rinsed a plate of meat slices...

While eating, Feng Xiaogang suddenly asked Shen Xudong: "What do you think your "A Day Trip" would look like if it were made into a movie?"

"It should be romantic and dreamy. It should not be like a documentary. I want the color with a fairy tale feel like "Amélie"..."

"…"Amélie"?"

"A French movie, the picture effect is like the color of oil painting, very dreamy..."

Feng Xiaogang became interested: "Do you have any ideas about film art?"

Let’s talk about his major!

"...Well, I found that many of the movies I like are very comfortable in terms of art... After attending the Chinese drama, I started to deliberately look up information in this area..."

"The feeling of romance...how can you be romantic?"

"I think the colors can be fuller, mainly warm tones... Add some literary and artistic attributes to Teacher Fan, for example, he can play the saxophone... My dad can play "Evenings on the Suburbs of Moscow"... No, the saxophone is too big, change it to Let’s play harmonica!”

"...play the harmonica?"

Zhang Guoli quickly interrupted: "I can learn..."

Han Shanping also said: "You filmed "A Day Trip to Sweet Dreams", and we also cast "Lost Orphan"!"

"...shooting two movies together?"

"Oh, Xiao Shen, I haven't told you about "The Lost Orphan" yet..."

Finally remembered "The Lost Orphan"!

Han Shanping spoke first: "Is the story of "The Lost Orphan" true?"

Shen Xudong nodded: "It's true. The prototype is Mr. Guo Gangtang. I have read his interview materials... but the last part about meeting the master was made up by me..."

"Is he still looking?"

"Well... Guo Gangtang and his wife gave birth to two more sons, but he never gave up the idea of ​​​​looking for Guo Zhen. Only on the road did he feel worthy of his son... This has become an obsession! He started riding a motorcycle every day Riding from city to city, he would take a second look when he saw a boy who was about the same age as his son. He said to himself, "This is a very stupid solution, but it is also a helpless solution."

"…It's too awful…"

"But he is quite optimistic. He said that most of the people he has met on the road in recent years are kind-hearted people. The motorcycles he rides were all given by others..."

Feng Xiaogang lamented: "There are still many kind-hearted people! Human traffickers deserve to die!"

Zhang Guoli said: "...I want to adapt it into a movie..."

"OK…"

Shen Xudong nodded: "Adapt it into a movie so that more people can see it. It can also give Mr. Guo Gangtang some hope in case he finds his son through the movie... Since I wrote it, I want more people to see it... Uncle Zhang, this You don’t need to ask my opinion on this matter, just take it!”

Hearing what Shen Xudong said, Feng Xiaogang gave a thumbs up: "Okay, I'll direct it! I will do my best to make this movie a good one!"

Shen Xudong quickly joined in: "...With Feng Daowen as the director, at least 10 million viewers will be willing to go to the cinema to watch it... This is the honor of "The Lost Orphan"!"

Zhang Guoli also slapped the table: "Okay, then I'll act!"

Han Shanping also said: "The China Film Festival fully supports the distribution of "The Orphan" and "A Day Trip"!"

Shen Xudong originally wanted to say that Ji Xiaolan was on the air, but Zhang Guoli would forget it...

Everyone is so excited, so he might as well shut up...
