One ending is the domestic version and the other is the foreign version.
Domestic version Qin Fangfang, who was sold to Huangjia Village, was finally rescued by the clever police after many escapes and inhumane beatings.
The ending of this version is slightly better. Although it is still depressing overall, at least compared to the heaviness of the entire movie, at least it gives people a glimmer of hope.
Wang Shuai actually didn't like this ending.
He felt that the ending was too cliched and the overall tone of the performance was not ironic enough. It was as if a big stone was lifted up violently and then gently floated down like catkins. It was really almost meaningless.
He felt that his "The Crow" should sublimate the emotions little by little at the end, sublimate it to the extreme, make people unforgettable, and then hang high like a big stone, making people unforgettable for life.
then……
There is a second edition, the overseas Cannes edition.
……………………
"Let you go!"
"Let you go!"
"Let you go!"
"..."
Zhou Yang was roaring hysterically, beating a slightly stooped middle-aged man as if madly.
When Huang Degui, who he plays, learns that Qin Fangfang's father is taking the heroine away, he suddenly goes crazy and throws down the heroine's father, a rickety middle-aged man.
He had been cowardly and ridiculed for most of his life in Huangjiacun. At this moment, all his suppressed emotions completely burst out.
His wife can't leave!
If he is taken away, he will be laughed at even more severely by the villagers. Everyone will look down on him and feel that the whole village is helping you protect your mother-in-law, and even the police are driven away. Even the mother-in-law can’t stand it!
Outside the set.
Feng Kaiming knew he was filming, but he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He wanted to rush in, kick Zhou Yang hard, and then slap Zhou Yang again.
The character played by Zhou Yang is full of ignorance, timid outside but violent at home, has no moral bottom line, and is selfish...
That kind of vivid deduction and interpretation brought Feng Kai, who was already full of negative emotions, close to the breaking point.
He gritted his teeth, and the hand holding the horn was trembling.
Zhou Yang, on the other hand, was completely selfless, immersed in the role, and every punch landed on Zhao Zhen, who played the heroine's father.
Punch after punch!
The sound of fists could be heard from outside.
Wang Shuai was very excited.
His body was trembling, and at the same time his emotions were raised to the highest peak, and his whole body was so excited that he wanted to scream.
That’s what it feels like!
Yes, I just need this feeling!
Great, great, great!
Zhou Yang's emotion infected Song Yiyi, who plays Qin Fangfang.
She was desperately trying to pull the two away, crying and shouting for Huang Degui to stop fighting. She even knelt on the ground, crying and begging Huang Degui.
Sadness, anger, heartache...
Various emotions were revealed in her eyes.
However, as a woman, in such a small village where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, she is a vulnerable group...
There is only so much she can do!
In the end, in the close-up of the camera, her eyes were full of gray, and anyone could see the deep despair in them.
In desperation, she picked up the hatchet next to her and, like a madman, slashed hard at Huang Degui.
Cut this knife down...
Feng Kai next to him felt like his heart had been cut.
It felt so good, so satisfying to vent to the extreme, but then his face turned pale and he almost rushed inside to save Zhou Yang.
But, okay...
Zhou Yang was protected by something and only hit the blood bag on his back.
"Haha, haha, hahaha, ahhaha..."
"Ohh Ohh ohh……"
In Qingshui Village.
Song Yiyi's sudden lunatic laughter rang out, then she smiled, then suddenly started crying. Holding the hatchet, she stared blankly at Zhou Yang's fallen figure...
Her whole body was shaking.
Then……
Suddenly he continued to laugh again.
This time the laughter was more miserable than the previous one...
"Click!"
"Perfect!"
Wang Shuai rushed over excitedly, pulled Zhou Yang up from the ground, and hugged him tightly.
Agent Xu Lingling also rushed in, threw Song Yiyi's hatchet far away, and hurriedly checked Song Yiyi's physical condition...
Feng Kai did not move, but stared blankly at this scene. After watching for an unknown period of time, he breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down on the chair as if a huge burden had been lifted.
His emotions are very strange, depressing and heavy, and at the same time he has a sense of excitement about participating in the filming of this kind of movie.
All kinds of emotions were intertwined in his heart, and he wanted to yell at the whole world here to vent all the anger in his heart.
it's over!
The movie is finally over!
This damn "The Crow" is finally over.
He will never make such a depressing movie again in his life.
In the isolation line, there was thunderous applause, and all the staff rushed in one by one. The medical team immediately checked everyone, focusing on Zhao Zhen's condition.
"I, how was the shooting..."
Zhao Zhen felt pain all over his body, as if he had been hit by a car and then fell.
But he was very excited.
In "Mineral", he played a deceased person who only appeared for a few minutes. Now in "The Crow", his plot has been extended, and he is one of the characters with the most lines among the supporting characters!
The doctors who examined him looked at his condition. Especially when they saw that the protective plastic on Zhao Zhen's back was dented by fists, they looked at Zhou Yang in the crowd in disbelief.
"This guy is really serious!"
“I can’t believe how such a skinny person can punch with such terrifying force!”
"Fortunately, I was prepared early, otherwise, I might have seriously injured someone..."
"..."
The voices of their discussions were eventually drowned out by bursts of excitement, and no one heard what they were feeling...
……………………
May 15th.
The movie "The Crow" is officially finished.
At the finals banquet...
The crew, actors and villagers were very drunk.
The few reporters who had been here for nearly a month were finally allowed to attend the closing dinner.
They originally found the closing banquet hard to swallow.
After all, this is such a remote place that no one can poop. If you want to buy a bag of salt, you have to spend three hours on a bumpy mountain road and go to the town down the mountain to buy it.
This time, people lost half their lives.
But……
Gu Di
When they sat down to eat and take pictures, they never imagined that not only was the food not delicious, but after taking a bite, they thought it was extremely delicious...
They were pleasantly surprised.
Especially the dish called "Lotus Leaf Chicken".
The portion of the dish is very small!
But when they took a bite and put it in their mouths, they were all shocked.
"This is impossible!"
"How could there be such a powerful cook in this remote country?"
"I do not believe!"
"Is it because we are used to the food in big cities, and now we think it's delicious after a different taste?"
"wrong!"
"That's really wrong...this green vegetable is also quite delicious!"
"..."
Just when the reporters were confused, they saw Song Yiyi pick up the cup.
"Originally, we should first thank Director Wang. It was Director Wang who brought us together, made us meet, and made this movie."
"But... after eating the food, I think we should thank Director and Teacher Zhou even more!"
"He's still helping in the kitchen!"
"Without Teacher Zhou, we wouldn't be able to eat such good dishes. I have been eating the dishes cooked by Teacher Zhou for more than a month. Every time I eat them, I feel endless aftertaste. I am thinking, if there is no Director Zhou in the future, I
I will feel uncomfortable cooking!"
"..."
Under the light.
In the open space where mosquitoes and fireflies were flying, Song Yiyi picked up the wine glass, pointed to the kitchen with a smile, and then took the lead in walking towards the kitchen.
Beside the kitchen, a group of men and women were busy coming in and out, washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, and serving dishes. Everyone was very busy. This mood also infected Zhou Yang, who was in a state of shock.
At the round table at the door of the kitchen, many villagers were watching, as if watching the excitement...
After seeing Song Yiyi and others approaching, they subconsciously gave way.
In the hazy kitchen, three earthen stoves were burning hotly...
Song Yiyi smiled and wanted to be the first to respect Zhou Yang in front of everyone, but when she saw Zhou Yang's naked upper body, she was stunned, and then her face turned red without knowing it.
Zhou Yang's whole body was covered in sweat. He didn't look fat when he was wearing clothes, but he was quite well-proportioned. But when Zhou Yang took off his clothes, he actually had a body with uneven tendons. The key is that the tendons looked quite tempting, and neither
Looks puffy, but not thin, everything is just right.
She subconsciously turned away, but couldn't help but take a sneak glance. She felt it was a shameful thing, but her eyes were uncontrollable.
Several reporters subconsciously walked towards the kitchen with their cameras, and happened to take pictures of this scene...
In the crowd, a young female reporter actually screamed on the spot.
"Wow!"
"Director Zhou is so handsome!"
“Director Zhou’s figure, my God!”
"..."
After the screams, everyone saw many scars on Zhou Yang's body, which looked very shocking!
After Wang Shuai heard the sounds, he felt very unhappy.
I feel that people in this world are really too superficial, so superficial that it makes people feel sick.
Isn't it just that the body is a little stronger?
What's so great about it?
The key for men is to look inside, these ignorant guys.
What’s the use of being strong?
Is it used to carry bricks?
Although Wang Shuai thinks that everyone is superficial, so superficial that it makes people sick, he has to admit that this world is a hell of a face-based world!
"Are you satisfied with the food?"
"Haha, as long as you are satisfied with my craftsmanship, you all have worked hard this month."
"The vegetables and local chickens in Qingshui Village are definitely top-notch ingredients... It's hard for me to find such natural ingredients outside..."
"Yes, some things were planted by me and my friends in the village."
"Ha ha……"
"Yes, I will buy some ingredients in Qingshui Village in the future... If you want to come over to eat, you can come over next time. I have taught the villagers some skills during this period. They are very attentive and learn well.
Also very attentive..."
Perhaps it was the last reporter interview that made Zhou Yang feel a sense of "self".
Zhou Yang, who was busy, unknowingly lost the sense of social fear he once had when facing these reporters, and instead laughed.
This person Zhou Yang...
It’s really strange!
In the past, when he was silent and sitting gloomily in the corner, many people thought he was aloof and aloof.
But at this moment, although Zhou Yang was still wearing tattered clothes, his confident smile was very contagious...
Song Yiyi looked at it for a long time.
I don’t know if I was attracted by the aroma of Zhou Yang’s cooking, or something else...
She swallowed.
……………………
night.
Deep.
Starlight Entertainment.
Cai Lin silently looked at the invitation letter for the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards and the nomination information.
Agent Xu Mei stood aside with her head lowered.
This feeling is very quiet, but very depressing.
""Meet" was also shortlisted?"
"yes!"
"They didn't find any evidence of plagiarism, right?"
"Not yet, but..."
"But what?"
"I don't know what to say. Zhou Yang's current momentum gives me a very strange feeling."
"What does it feel like?"
"..."
"Tell me, how do you feel? Normally you are not allowed to speak, and you keep talking. Now that you are asked to speak, you don't say anything!"
"Sister, I think it's possible that his time is coming..."
"..."
The joys and sorrows of each person are different.
Some people are having fun.
And some people have fallen into unprecedented complex emotions.
Xu Mei saw that Cai Lin, who had always been strong, suddenly fell silent.
There was silence for a long time...
She just shook her head.
"She can't beat me, and Zhou Yang can't beat me, but Teacher Song Lian..."
"But in terms of sales, they already want..."
"If you spend more money, at least before the Golden Melody Awards, you can't be overtaken..."
