Kang Jianfei's one-second performance immediately brought the atmosphere of the premiere to its climax.
Li Saifeng, who had just been targeted, was so frightened that her legs became weak. Kang Jianfei did not say in advance that he was going to shoot a flying knife over her head. She thought he was going to hit apples with stones.
Pan Yingzi saw something wrong with Li Saifeng's expression and quickly helped her sit down. Then she said to Kang Jianfei in a reproachful tone: "Director, you can't replace it with something else. What if you miss it?"
Pan Yingzi's words expressed the sentiments of many people present. If they accidentally hurt the delicate girl, it would be a tragic thing in the world, and they all agreed and blamed her.
"I will never miss." Kang Jianfei said with a confident smile. In fact, he had prepared this fruit knife in advance. Since each knife is different, Kang Jianfei had already mastered it after many experiments at home. The weight, center of gravity and other factors of this fruit knife are clearly visible.
Kang Jianfei felt that he should soothe everyone's frightened hearts, so he took out a nine-hole pottery xun from his pocket and said with a smile: "Since everyone doesn't like martial arts, I will give you a literary performance."
Pan Yingzi asked curiously: "What is this? Is it a musical instrument?"
Kang Jianfei lifted the Tao Xun and said, "This is the Tao Xun, which is somewhat similar to the ocarina from abroad. Tao Xun appeared very early in China. There is a record in the Book of Songs that 'Bo's family played the xun, and Zhong's family played the chi'." "
"Wow, it turns out that Director Kang is both civilized and military, and knows so many things." Pan Yingzi deliberately boasted, "Then what piece of music are you going to play today?"
Kang Jianfei smiled shamelessly and said: "A song I composed is called "Original Scenery of My Hometown"."
"Original Scenery of Hometown", the work of Japan's top ocarina master Sojiro, has been cited in TV series such as Chen Xiaochun's "The Deer and the Cauldron", Li Ruotong's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "Step by Step", "Beijing Love Story" and other TV series Background music, this tune often appears even in the cartoon "Chibi Maruko-chan".
Making and playing Xun. This is a skill that Kang Jianfei learned from the old director of the welfare home. It is also the skill that he is most satisfied with and loves most. When he was drifting to the north in his previous life, he would always show it off at parties and other events.
This song "Original Scenery of Hometown" was learned by Kang Jianfei when he was watching "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" when he was a boy. He didn't learn the whole song at first, he could only play one part of it. When he grew up, he picked up the complete song on the Internet to complete it. .
Kang Jianfei raised his index finger and whispered "hiss" to the audience. The noise below immediately quieted down. He was ready to hear what kind of thing Kang Jianfei was playing.
Kang Jianfei put away the uninhibited smile on his face and put Tao Xun to his mouth with a gentle expression. The melodious sound of the Xun immediately spread through the microphone to the entire screening hall.
There are no lyrics and no other instrumental accompaniment.
A desolate, melodious, and dreamy tone comes from the sound hole of the Tao Xun, but the sound seems to come from ancient times. It has penetrated hundreds of millions of years to reach today. The sound of the Tao Xun is clear and ethereal, extremely penetrating, and there is a distant feeling in the continuous melody. The memories have a bitter nostalgia. The low places are like meditating in a deep valley, slightly stagnant; the high places are like flowing clouds in the mountains, flying and long.
The song was only played halfway, and the whole place was completely quiet. Even Pan Yingzi looked at Kang Jianfei quietly. She only knew that Kang Jianfei was going to perform Tao Xun, but she didn't expect that the music he played was so beautiful.
If Kang Jianfei's guitar playing level is only at the level of a bar singer, then Tao Xun, who he has practiced for more than 20 years, has definitely reached a professional playing level.
At that time, Soujiro was just a small character who was immersed in studying the ocarina. When "Original Scenery of Hometown" came out, the whole earth was shaken and countless people followed it. In the end, it actually caused a worldwide trend of learning to play the ocarina. Soujiro even more
The man who played the ocarina was named the supreme master!
Haha, but now, Soujiro has just moved to an abandoned elementary school, burning bricks in a kiln to make ocarinas, and he is still far away from becoming a master.
After listening to "Original Scenery of Hometown", the young people may just be moved, and their feelings are not very deep. But after Kang Jianfei finished playing the song, some elderly people present had wet eyes, and some even shed tears on their clothes.
superior.
He played a solo piece called Tao Xun, which moved the entire audience.
Those new wave directors were so amazed that they couldn't help but want to use this song as the background music of their next movie.
When Kang Jianfei put away the Tao Xun, the audience seemed to react and burst into thunderous applause.
Zhong Chuhong listened to the entire song with her eyes closed, and only opened her eyes when she applauded. She looked eagerly at Kang Jianfei on the stage, and said to Zhao Yazhi beside him: "Mr. Kang is so talented!"
Zhao Yazhi gazed at Kang Jianfei tenderly from afar, and said with a smile: "Yes, he seems to know everything. With him, you will always make surprising discoveries. I have known him for so long, and I only just learned that he can blow.
Tao Xun."
However, Wen Bixia had an idea: I can't compare to Ah Feng in singing and acting, so I will learn how to play the xun from my brother, and I will definitely surpass her!
After the applause, the audience was silent for a few seconds, and then Pan Yingzi said sincerely: "Director Kang's "Original Scenery of My Hometown" is really shocking. If it can be made into a record, it will definitely be a big seller."
"Haha, let's talk about it later." Kang Jianfei was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.
In his previous life, Kang Jianfei often played "Original Scenery of Hometown" in front of a few friends, but those guys just thought it sounded good. After all, this piece of music was widely quoted.
But it’s different now. It’s the first time for everyone at the scene to play “Original Scenery of Hometown”. The shock cannot be described in words, so much so that some people were moved to tears on the spot.
In another time and space, many people cried when listening to "Original Scenery of Hometown"! What's more, Kang Jianfei was performing live at this time.
Now everyone is still immersed in the music. Kang Jianfei did not show the movie immediately, but asked Li Saifeng to perform a sword dance to calm everyone down after listening to the music.
Li Saifeng has practiced dancing before, and the kung fu practice in the past two months has made her body more flexible. This sword technique has no practical significance, but it is very beautiful for girls to dance. She only practiced for a few days and she already looked good. Gradually,
He brought back the lost souls of the audience and won a round of applause.
After the sword dance, "Mr. Zombie" officially premiered.
The screening room was instantly dark, leaving only the bright big screen in front of it.
The melodious and dreamy music sounded, and the opening animation of Oriental DreamWorks appeared again. Compared with the outdated openings of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, the opening animation of Oriental DreamWorks gave people a fresh feeling.
Lam Ching-ying is sitting upright. This is his first movie as a protagonist, so he was inevitably nervous when it was released.
The beginning of the movie has an additional shot compared to the original version of "Mr. Zombie". The camera sweeps across the dark courtyard and finally lands on the word "Yizhuang" on the plaque, letting the audience know in advance that this is a place where people are released.
The camera gradually zoomed in and moved inside the yizhuang. The permeating music combined with the dark tones and a row of coffins passing by gave people an even more creepy feeling.
It can be seen from here that Kang Jianfei, who is a top photographer, has a very different shooting technique from the original "Mr. Zombie" and is better at using lens language to create an atmosphere.
The characters haven't even appeared yet. Just a few shots and some background music gave the audience a chilling feeling.
The dozen or so new directors were inexplicably excited. Zhang Guoming said to Xu Anhua next to him: "These shots are great. The photographer of "Mr. Zombie" seems to be Zhong Zhiwen. His camera skills are very good."
"
Xu Anhua shook his head and said: "I have worked with Zhong Zhiwen before, and these scenes are not like his style."
Xu Ke couldn't help but interjected: "When we were filming "Happy Ghost", the director of photography was Kang Jianfei."
Zhang Guoming exclaimed: "This guy can also take pictures!"
Several shots created a terrifying atmosphere. Xu Guanying suddenly appeared holding a handful of incense, which shocked the audience. When they saw Xu Guanying putting incense on the coffin, they realized that he was the night watchman of Yizhuang, and everyone was shocked.
field.
But as soon as the curtain was opened, the row of zombies wearing Qing Dynasty official uniforms, with yellow talismans on their foreheads and black and pale faces, once again lifted the hearts of the audience.
"Ah!" The second male lead played by Kang Jianfei appeared, but he pretended to be a zombie to scare Xu Guanying in the film.
Because the atmosphere created now was so tense, the zombie played by Kang Jianfei appeared without warning, almost making the audience jump from their seats in shock.
When the fake zombie grabbed Xu Guanying's neck and bit it with his fangs exposed, the audience sweated for Xu Guanying and prayed in their hearts that he could subdue the zombie.
Just when the zombie was about to bite Xu Guanying to death, the zombie suddenly smacked its mouth, rubbed its neck, blinked its eyes, and then burst into laughter.
Only then did the audience realize that the zombie was pretended to be a human being and was playing a prank on Xu Guanying. Many viewers who felt that they had been deceived scolded him on the spot.
"What are you doing? It took a long time to come up with a fake."
"I'm going to punch your lungs out. You're so scary."
"..."
When Kang Jianfei listened to these vague curses, the corners of his mouth turned up involuntarily. When filming "Happy Ghost", due to the limited budget, Kang Jianfei could only make rough and economical work. But when filming "Mr. Zombie", although the shooting speed was
It is extremely fast, but the quality has not been relaxed at all. Many of Kang Jianfei's film techniques from later generations have also been used. At least in terms of lens use and atmosphere creation, Kang Jianfei's "Mr. Zombie" is much better than the original version.
While the audience was cursing, the two brothers were joking and joking, but the yellow talisman on the real zombie's forehead fell off. More than a dozen zombies chased the two people and fled all over the house.
The two brothers, played by Xu Guanying and Kang Jianfei, were full of jokes during the escape, completely destroying the terrifying atmosphere just created. The audience, who had been deceived by the two, was now laughing in a ventive way.
stand up.
"This kid deserves bad luck."
"Haha, you've gone too far!"
"Are you mistaken? Zombie movies can be so funny."
