Chen Feng spent a total of four days to complete the production of this short film. The next step was the release of the film.
Chen Feng has already considered this aspect. Anyway, this short film is not for making money, so Chen Feng plans to publish it for free on major video websites, using the registered Summit Entertainment account. The name of this short film is very simple, and Chen Feng chose it.
For "Goodbye Youth".
The first thing to publish was of course his own Weibo.
At about ten o'clock that night, the short film was just finished. After Chen Feng checked that it was correct, he first posted the short film on his Weibo.
"I've been bored lately, so I made a short film about youth. I hope you all like it."
His current Weibo account has more than 2.2 million real fans.
So as soon as this video was posted on Weibo, most fans immediately retweeted it before even watching it. It immediately became popular.
Although it only took Chen Feng two days to shoot this short film, you must know that he still has the masterful director skills given by the system, so the quality will definitely not be bad.
The opening of the short film is the logo of Summit Entertainment, which is very simple. First, there is a sharp white mountain peak, and then there are four big red calligraphy characters of "Summit Entertainment" on the mountain peak. Finally, a circle composed of a bunch of golden stars appears.
It is surrounded by four big red characters. So even though it looks very simple, it makes everyone feel very powerful and impressive at first glance.
This logo was designed by Chen Feng and completed by Liu Qian himself, which took more than half an hour. Jia Yong and Li Dazhi both expressed satisfaction after seeing it.
As the Summit Entertainment logo finished playing, rows of white letters appeared in the middle of the screen.
"When I was 16 years old, I left my hometown and went south to work. I was dazzled by the city's lights and flowers, and experienced my own bloody youth."
At the same time, the prelude of the theme song "Goodbye Youth" of the same name began to sound.
As the video footage changed from blurry to clear, the scene of flying upside down outside the train window gradually transitioned to the bustling night scene of the city, including lively streets, overpasses, and high-rise buildings.
Then the prelude of the song ended and the singing started.
"I will set off at dawn in late autumn
With the shaking of the iron carriage
Accompanied by the fragrance of wild chrysanthemums blooming
Depart at the dawn of broken dreams
Goodbye youth
Goodbye beautiful pain
Goodbye youth
eternal confusion
…”
This song is sung by Chen Feng in a cappella-like voice. Although his singing skills are not very good, it sounds very good. In addition, he has a deep understanding of the song and can embody the emotions very well. It can arouse the emotions of the audience in one go.
stand up.
Who has never experienced youth? Who has never been confused? Who has never been sad? These are themes that resonate very much with adults.
The theme song only played one section at the beginning and then ended, leaving people feeling that it was still unfinished.
As the song ended, the scene quickly switched to the construction site. There was no unnecessary narration or introduction, and the most real side of the construction site was directly presented to the audience. Then, a thin rural boy appeared in the scene. He suddenly
I came out of the tin room with a sleepy face and squatted in front of a faucet to brush my teeth and wash my face.
The boy's day at the construction site begins, and the next five minutes or so are scenes of the boy working, occasionally interspersed with other shots of the construction site. During this period, there are no background sounds or narrations, only the most realistic sounds of the construction site.
Start working at 7 o'clock in the morning, start to rest at 11:30 noon, eat, lie on the ground and take a nap, get up at 1 o'clock and continue working, and do not end the day's construction site work until 6 o'clock in the afternoon.
When the lanterns first came on, the boy ate dinner in a hurry, took a shower, and then went outside the construction site. After that, the scene switched to the hair salon street, where the boy was sitting in a hair salon getting a haircut, and the fair-skinned and pure-dressed hair-washing girl gave him
He washed and massaged his hair, with the same posture and the same two people. The girl who washed her hair changed her clothes several times, but the boy's clothes never changed.
Then the scene changed, and the boy came to the hair salon again, but was pushed out of the door by a middle-aged aunt and fell to the ground.
The boy got up from the ground and stood not far away, staring blankly at the hair salon. Then the music of the song "Light Chaser" started playing.
"If you are a firework on the sea
I am the foam of the waves
At a certain moment your light illuminated me
If you were said to be a distant galaxy
Dazzling enough to make you want to cry
I'm chasing your eyes
Always look at the night sky when I am lonely
I can follow you
Like a shadow dreamwalking after the light
I can wait at this intersection
Whether you will pass by or not
Whenever I raise my head for you
Even tears feel free
Some love is like the sun falling, you have it and you lose it at the same time
…”
As the song played, the scenes kept switching, showing the young man coming here every day and staring at the hair salon, until one day the hair salon closed and the house was empty.
In the brightly lit night, the boy ran alone on the dim street, until he ran into the darkness and could no longer see clearly. The picture turned pitch black, and after 3 seconds, it suddenly brightened, indicating that
At the beginning of a new day, the boy appeared at the construction site again, repeating the day-to-day construction site work.
The last picture showed the silhouette of a young man smoking a cigarette under a dim street light, with a desolate expression. Then the theme song "Goodbye Youth" sounded again, this time in its full version. The final producer's subtitle of the short film: Director Chen Feng

Whether it is a song or a movie, there is a certain amount of controversy.
