Chapter 27 Mavericks try the knife
"Whatever the eldest brothers want to eat, just order it hard and I'll treat you to it!" Zhao Hong said boldly. This is a self-employed restaurant not far from the school.
"Fourth brother, you guys are not welcome!" Zhang Fengyi took the menu and ordered a few dishes. In fact, private restaurants had just opened at this time, and there were very few types of dishes. The most common one was braised pork.
, but it is already a luxury for students.
"The second child has already acted in a movie, so his wallet must be bulging. If the fourth child treats me this time, you should treat me next time!", the third child Gu Changwei joked.
"No problem! It's just a meal!" Zhang Fengyi said proudly. Although he didn't get much performance fee, there will be no problem in the restaurant next time. During this period, actors were paid in the form of wages.
"What! Have you finished filming? Why don't I know? Second brother, please tell me!" Zhao Hong asked. He knew about this matter. When their class arranged the annual sketch "Camel Xiangzi" last year,
Zhang Fengyi played the role of Xiangzi, and the sketch was very successful, so he was selected by the director who was going to make the movie "Camel Xiangzi".
"I just finished filming a few days ago, hey! After I participated in the movie, I realized that I still have a lot of shortcomings. I have one year left in college. I have to work harder and don't plan to star in movies anymore." Zhang Fengyi replied,
When he was playing Xiangzi, he only knew that his acting skills were not good enough, so he planned to improve them in school.
The movie "Camel Xiangzi" is based on Lao She's novel. The drama "Camel Xiangzi" is very classic. It is a treasure of people and art.
Zhao Hong really admired him. For actors in this period, their works speak for themselves. Without good acting skills, they can't get along. The four people in the dormitory studied very hard. Zhang Yimou not only studied photography as a professional, but also studied photography part-time.
Directing and acting were studied eagerly in school. Because Zhao Hong had extremely rich professional knowledge, he was often asked for advice, and Zhao Hong took the trouble to explain it to him.
Gu Changwei is also working very hard. While learning photography, he is also learning directing knowledge. Zhang Fengyi has learned the least subjects. But don’t think that he has the easiest time. Acting is a lifelong thing and one can never finish it in a lifetime. He
Just learning to act, he has made very rapid progress, otherwise no movie would come to him.
The three of them often asked Zhao Hong for advice, and often went to Zhao Hong's residence to pull films and study. Zhao Hong himself brought a set of projection equipment in Xiangjiang and installed it in his courtyard house, as well as many foreign films.
Zhao Hong did this for his own study, which also fulfilled their needs. It can be said that they have made rapid progress in the past three years. They are completely different from when they first entered the school, both in terms of temperament and knowledge.
, they are completely different people, and now there is no problem at all for them to direct a small to medium-budget film.
Of course, Zhao Hong has learned the most among the four. Three years of continuous learning in the system has allowed him to accumulate theoretical knowledge beyond measure. Now, whether it is the Soviet Union or European and American director theory, he has it at his fingertips, not to mention that he is also constantly learning in reality.
, whether it is the breadth or depth of knowledge, you can be proud of it.
Several people chatted while eating and told each other some interesting things about the vacation.
"It's been three years since college. How about we make a short film together? Use this short film to witness what we have learned. You see, we already have a director, photographer and actors, and a small crew.
A team of people." Zhao Hong suggested.
"It's good, but I don't have photographic equipment and film." Zhang Yimou said excitedly. Although he has studied photography for three years, he has only been able to get started with it a handful of times. It's just that it's not easy to shoot and the cost of shooting is too high.
, there were no digital cameras at this time, and film was very expensive.
The other two people also expressed that it was too expensive, but they all looked at Zhao Hong, knowing that he had something more to say.
Zhao Hong did not disappoint them. When he saw him, he said: "It's okay. I brought a set of shooting equipment and more than 5,000 rolls of film this holiday. It should be enough." These were all prepared by him for the filming of this short film.
.
The other three people's eyes changed when they looked at Zhao Hong. What is a rich man? This is a rich man. Although they all know that Zhao Hong is not short of money, after all, they can usually tell, but they did not expect that they could buy a photo shoot if they are so rich.
It's not easy for them to rent equipment.
Zhao Hong is very mysterious in their eyes. She is very low-key in school and does not show off her talents. She also studies very hard, but she always hides her secrets. She is always in the middle in every exam and usually talks in public.
He is relatively infrequent and does not make any remarks easily. Of course, his appearance cannot be kept low-key. The school does not know how many girls have written love letters to him.
Therefore, others know almost nothing about Zhao Hong. Only those in the same dormitory know something about it. They can be sure that Zhao Hong has the best grades in the class, and his family should be very rich, whether he lives alone or not.
There are still private screens in the courtyard, which are not affordable for ordinary people. They always thought that the second generation Zhao Honghong kept a low profile in school because he did not want to cause any criticism and have a bad impact on his family.
But now it seems a bit wrong. The three of them didn't say anything. Everyone has their own secret. Since Zhao Hong doesn't want to tell it, there must be some reason.
So Zhang Yimou asked directly: "Lao Si, what are you planning to shoot? Have you thought about shooting anything?".
"I probably have an idea, why don't I tell you about it!" Zhao Hong said.
"Okay! Let us give you some advice!" Gu Changwei said.
Zhao Hong started talking. Li Li was a talented pianist who had been studying piano for 15 years. However, he failed in a piano competition to represent the country abroad and his life hit rock bottom. After a period of adjustment, Li Li'an regained his strength.
, became a blind piano tuner. In fact, he just wore contact lenses, which will make others think that he has sharper hearing, and thus gain more sympathy and consumption, and even peek into other people's eyes.
Life and privacy, he was immersed in this kind of detachment, which seemed to be outside the world even though he was in the bustling city. One day, he came to work in a house, but he didn't know that a murder had just occurred here, and he died because he was pretending to be blind and his identity was exposed.
This is "The Tuner", which comes from a French short film in 2010, and was later adapted into a movie in India. Although "The Tuner" is a short film of only fourteen minutes, it is full of plot tension.
It is surprising that the movie uses a short and concise idea of a clever person who is mistaken for cleverness, and hides the greed, cowardice, and hypocrisy of human nature in this tuner who pretends to be blind, and the role of the tuner is set
, in fact, whether it is his failure or his finding a new way and using his own way to achieve a certain degree of success, it will actually resonate with people. I believe that what many people hope for in the end is actually this clever man.
The sound engineer was not killed, but the director put in a lot of foreplay. From a rational point of view, this must actually be a tragedy, and the movie stops abruptly in the puzzle between life and death. Self-consciousness actually paints a picture for the movie.
It was the most successful ending.
Zhao Hong liked this short film very much. When Zhao Hong finished telling it, the other three people all felt that the story was very good. The whole story was full of suspense and conflicts. It was short and concise. It was perfect for making a short film.
"The story is so good, Fourth Brother, please hurry up and write the script. I can't wait to film it." Zhang Yimou said excitedly.
After that, everyone divided their tasks. Zhao Hong was of course the director, Zhang Yimou was the photographer, and Zhang Fengyi played the blind pianist. Although everyone wanted to shoot it as soon as possible, in order to keep improving, everyone still had to prepare for a month.
