You don't understand the happiness of the director
Chapter 177 The shock of losing an orphan (1, please give me a monthly ticket for guarantee)
Wang Quan asked the driver to drive directly to the set without going to the hotel.
At this time, the crew of "Li Mi" was filming at the police station. It was not a real police station. The two lines of the heroine Zhou Xun and the hero Deng Chao met for the first time. Li Mi's boyfriend Ma Wen, who had been looking for four years, suddenly appeared. in front of myself.
Wang Quan said nothing, and just watched everyone filming from behind the staff, witnessing a performance that could make him a god.
In Wang Quan's view, this early work by Mr. Cao has a good story but poor commerciality, and the performances are outstanding, especially Zhou Xun, who is the biggest highlight of the film.
What kind of story was told? Li Mi and Marvin were lovers since junior high school. Later, Marvin failed to enter college and made a living by driving a taxi. One day he suddenly disappeared, and Li Mi inherited his As a taxi driver, I put his photo in the car. While driving to support myself, I was looking for a boyfriend for four years.
And what has Marvin been doing in the past four years? He went to sell that. The crime of taking a gun was to make money to open a supermarket for his girlfriend to live a good life. In the last four years, he made 1 million in stolen money. In order to keep this For money, he jumped off a bridge and died.
In fact, when he first read the script, Wang Quan knew that the box office would not be very high. It overemphasized the power of love, which was a bit extreme, and it was difficult for the audience to relate to it. They might be about to be moved, but when they think about what the male protagonist is doing, they feel awkward.
It's not like the male protagonist can't survive, but he takes such a big risk for love. Aren't you afraid that your girlfriend of four years will find a new love? The heroine's parents are both university teachers, and her living conditions are very favorable.
It’s hard to be moved if you don’t understand.
On the contrary, there are two supporting characters who are connected with Ma Wen, namely Da Qiu and Xiao Qiu, played by Wang Baoqiang and Wang Yanhui. They are responsible for swallowing things in and pulling them out. They are engaged in transportation. The experience of the two people on the wrong path makes it easier for them to go astray. People accept it.
However, Wang Quan did not let Mr. Cao revise it. This was his script. Wang Quan respected his creation, but when he wrote the script and asked him to film it, he would have to film it word for word.
Wang Quan discovered that there was a gap of several years between Teacher Cao's creations, and he wanted to fill it in for Teacher Cao. He was in the prime of life, and it would be a pity not to film.
After the exciting confrontation between the male and female protagonists ended, Wang Quan stepped forward to say hello.
He had met Zhou Xun before when he was giving awards, and this was the first time he met Deng Chao. He had shaved off his hair, and the young man looked very energetic.
Oh, and Zhang Hanyu, he and Deng Chao both just finished filming "Assembly Number", which is a movie starring Zhang Hanyu, but starring is not the norm. His usual work is mainly supporting roles, and occasionally he also does dubbing. Brother's voice is very magnetic.
Zhang Hanyu is older and a little more reserved, while Deng Chao is more out-of-the-box. His personality is completely different from the one in the movie. He always brings a lot of laughter and quickly heats up the atmosphere.
Zhou Xun didn't dare to look at him. He had just gotten over his emotions and there would be a crying scene later.
Mr. Cao's filming went very smoothly. He felt that the film would be completed in April and released within the year. He asked Wang Quan to take a look at the filmed materials.
Teacher Cao is a story writer. Although the structure of this story pays homage to "Crash", it is still a bit shocking to see people fall from the bridge twice and the starting point and end point form a closed loop.
But photography is not his strong point. The lens is relatively flat, which means it is not attractive enough on the big screen. If it were Zhang Yimou or Wang Jiawei, they would make a duller movie than this one, and Wang Quan would be able to watch it with gusto. This is the lens. The charm of language.
However, considering that Lao Cao is a new director and the photographers he collaborates with are not great people, Wang Quan doesn't have to criticize him harshly.
At noon, Wang Quan took Anna to eat lunch on the set. The crew members were all very curious when looking at the doll. He is indeed an international director, and even his assistant is so international.
The afternoon shooting was moved outdoors. Li Mi chased Marvin and his female companion out of the police station. Zhou Xun had a very infectious crying scene.
Wang Quan continued to follow the crew, but asked Anna to go back to the hotel first. The crew expressed their disappointment.
In their opinion, this Miss Anna is much more interesting than Zhou Xun.
However, Wang Quan felt that Teacher Zhou Xun not only acted well in this movie, but also had a good look. Lao Cao captured her very beautifully and made her feel fragile.
"Click!" Teacher Cao was filming, and the actors acted very well. The confrontation between Deng and Zhou Xun was about to be a big explosion, and he suddenly shouted stop.
He held the walkie-talkie, "What's going on in the southwest corner?"
It turned out that a passerby entered the painting on a motorcycle.
Because these are life-like scenes, it is normal for passersby to be there, but this passerby is riding a motorcycle, with a flag and a photo on it, and he is staring directly at the actor, so it seems abrupt and needs to be dealt with.
The assistant director went over to talk to the other party. The other party was a little panicked and pushed the motorcycle backwards. Wang Quan noticed that the tire of the car had burst.
He was a little curious, so he walked over and started talking to the middle-aged uncle.
In fact, there is no need to ask. Just look at the flags and photos on his car and you will know that this is a father who has lost his child. His face is full of weather and frost. He is probably in his thirties, but he looks like he is in his forties.
"Brother, do you smoke?"
This is what Wang Quan just received from Zhou Xun.
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said with a Lu province accent, "I'm sorry, I just delayed your filming."
"It's okay, one scene requires several takes," Wang Quan smiled and clicked, "Do you know all the actors?"
The middle-aged man shook his head in embarrassment, "I don't know him."
Wang Quan looked at the time when his child was abducted. It was 1997. If he had rarely watched TV series since then, he would indeed not know the two popular stars.
"Brother, you have been looking for a child for ten years. It's not easy. What should I call him?"
The other party hurriedly took out a business card and asked Wang Quan to accept it. It was actually a simple promotional card, mainly for looking for a child, with his name, address and contact information.
"Guo Gangtang, let's call you Lao Guo. You came from so far away from Lu Province. Do you have any clues?" Wang Quan treated it as casual chat.
Lao Guo shook his head, "No, I was thinking that the child must have been sold and must have a fixed home. I searched province by province and city by city, and I could always find it. Neither did I. There are many people like me across the country, and they will help me, and I will help them. My motorcycle was given to me by others, and several of the previous ones have been scrapped."
Wang Quan sighed, there must be many people like Lao Guo who have lost their children, but there are few who can persist like him for ten years and still refuse to give up and are still on the road.
For a long time, even now, the trafficking of women and children has been rampant in our country.
Wang Quan accepted Lao Guo's business card and stuffed a few leaflets with him. He pushed the motorcycle and continued on the road. He wanted to find a shop to repair the tire first.
Baoqiang came over at this time. His movie had been filmed, and now the company asked him to return to Beijing. He had to go.
"Should we leave today or tomorrow?"
"I'm leaving tonight." Baoqiang regretted that he couldn't have a good chat about art with Director Wang.
Wang Quan patted Baoqiang on the shoulder and said, "Take care of me along the way and cooperate with me if you have the opportunity."
Baoqiang burst into laughter when he heard what he had been waiting for for a long time.
"Yeah, we must cooperate!" Baoqiang looked at the flyer in Wang Quan's hand again, "What is this?"
Wang Quan, "A poor man who lost his child has been looking for it for ten years. The child was only two years old when he lost it. I'm afraid he has no memory. Even if the child is found now, it may be difficult for the child to accept him as his biological father."
If you can't find the discomfort, if you find it, it may be another kind of discomfort.
"These human traffickers deserve to die! They deserve to die just like those drug dealers!" Baoqiang said angrily.
Then he talked about his boss, Li Yang, the director of "The Blind Shaft", "Director Li is currently making a movie about the abduction of women, it seems to be called "The Blind Mountain"."
Wang Quan lamented, "Insisting on realistic themes and challenging the darkest corners of society, Director Li is very brave. I will have to look for him later."
Baoqiang, “It hasn’t been broadcast yet~”
You can watch it even before you finish filming.
After finishing work and returning to the hotel, Anna, who had had enough rest, was about to pounce on her. Wang Quan held her down and said, "You can play by yourself for a while first."
Wang Quan is going to watch a movie first.
He searched Blind Mountain and found that there are actually two versions, one domestic version and one international version.
Wang Quan will watch the domestic version first. The heroine is Huang Lu, a classmate of the Nortel Acting Department who is in the same class as Wang Quan, playing a kidnapped college student.
After watching for a while, this classmate was raped by the "buyer"'s family of three. With the help of the "buyer's" parents and under their eyes, the classmate was raped by the old bachelor in his forties!
Wang Quan was stunned by Li Yang's boldness and Huang Lu's dedication. It was so real that it made people breathless.
He had to pause and search the three actors who played the "buyers". Are they really actors? Why are there no other works? So authentic, like a real local farmer.
Wang Quan calmed down and continued to read. What followed was the heroine's escape again and again, and was captured again and again. Finally, she became pregnant and gave birth to a baby. People in the same village were defending the criminals, but the heroine never wanted to escape.
Finally, her news spread, and her father and the police came to rescue her. At this time, she already had a child, but she could not take the child away, otherwise she would not be able to get out, so she cried heartbrokenly. Finish.
It makes people even more depressed. Wang Quan has heard of a more shocking ending. The girl was also abducted. At the moment of rescue, she strangled the child. The "buyer" bought the daughter-in-law to continue the incense, so I will strangle. Cut off your incense.
Wang Quan clicked on the international version without hesitation. The first part was the same, so he jumped directly to the finale at the end.
Even though the father and the police rescued him this time, the people in the village were too united and they still couldn't get out. When Huang Degui beat the heroine's father, the heroine, who had always just wanted to survive and be free, finally couldn't bear it anymore and chopped Huang Degui with a kitchen knife. head, blood splattered, the end.
The depression in Wang Quan's heart was released to a certain extent, but what followed was even greater sadness, and there was only a sigh.
I don’t know the reason why the film bureau failed to pass this ending. Is it out of love for the fragile audience?
Wang Quan tried to search for movies of the same type and found one called "The Woman Who Married the Mountain". He was stupid and didn't pay attention to the rating of 2.1 (out of ten) and clicked on it directly.
Then I was so angry that I almost lost sleep. This director must have read too many fairy tales. Compared with the bloody reality of "Blind Mountain", this film looked like shit.
Because the minimum is only one star (two points), 2.1 points is already the limit for scoring. Can it be lower than this?
Wang Quan took a look, what, there is actually one, wait, this director, isn't this Senior Brother Bi from the master class?
He is a graduate student in the Directing Department of Nortel. I heard that he was admitted to Peking University for a doctorate. Are you planning to hack two schools by yourself?
I originally wanted to see what he had photographed that could have such a low score, but then there was a knock on the door, and Ana stood up hurriedly and wiped her mouth.
Wang Quan asked and found out that it was Deng who came over to have dinner with him. Wang Quan called Anna, so let’s come together.
When he came back after dinner, Wang Quan's desire to be tortured did not change. He had just seen the traffickers of women and wanted to see if there were any traffickers of children.
Judging from the ratings and popularity, there are two films that stand out from the crowd.
The star of one of them is Huang Bo, who is known to Wang Quan, and the star of the other is Liu Dehua, who is also known to Wang Quan.
Wang Quan watched "Dear" first. Chen Kexin really has two skills. The movie was shot very well, with rich story, emotions and performances.
Looking at "The Orphan" again, the director is a newcomer with a background as a screenwriter, and the film is indeed not as good as the former. Liu Dehua acted very hard, breaking the previous inherent image, which is a very bold challenge.
Of course, hard work is hard work, and the deep-rooted image still makes people a little bit embarrassed. It would definitely be much better if Liang Jiahui was replaced as a guest star.
After watching several movies in a row, Wang Quan was a little tired and was about to take a shower. When he was taking off his clothes, Lao Guo's name tag fell off.
Wang Quan suddenly felt that Andy Lau's appearance in the film was somewhat similar to that of Lao Guo, with the motorcycle, the little flag, the bald head that did not match his age, and the original intention that had not changed after ten years of searching for a son.
Wait, Wang Quan immediately opened the comment section of "Lost Orphan", and then came the wonderful news.
He saw Lao Guo's name and his son's name!
It turns out that this movie is really based on Lao Guo!
And fourteen years later he really found his son!
The depression accumulated after watching four movies was released at this moment. Wang Quan felt sincerely happy for a stranger he didn't even know.
Then an idea came to him: why should he wait another 14 years to find his son?
In 14 years, my son is expected to get married. Is a man in his twenties still willing to admit that he has no memory and no companionship from his father since he was a child?
Thinking of this, Wang Quan dialed Lao Guo's phone number on his business card.
The other party answered the call instantly. This was a habit he had developed over the past ten years. His cell phone was always charged and charged because he was afraid of missing calls about his son's clues.
"Lao Guo, I am the person who was on the set during the day. Do you still remember... Yes, I learned about your deeds online and I want to talk to you. Well, I am a movie maker..."
