He Xizhang waited for Zhou Wenjin to recover slowly before asking him, "How?"

Zhou Wenjin thought about it, and gave a more pertinent evaluation: "It's good, but it's quite difficult to shoot."

The brain is too big, and the shooting is so good that people will be amazed. If one is not careful, it will become a thunderous film. The control of this scale is in the hands of the director.With the development of movies to this day, it seems that all kinds of new ideas are emerging in an endless stream, but in fact they are always changing.The famous American screenwriter Blake Snyder classified the movie genres into 10 categories in his classic book "Save the Cat - A Book of Screenwriters", and each category has many successful cases for reference. They all have the same characteristics, the script is so important, but even if it is the same script, the appearances presented by different directors are still different. Accumulated in a day's practice, only talent is left to control.

Miao Shitong's experience and talent are unquestionable, and the script of "Tai Chi" is also very solid, but Zhou Wenjin still thinks that He Xizhang's daring to take this film is a bold one, because He Xizhang's works on the big screen in the past are mainly artistic Most of them, including the award-winning "Golden Autumn".He Xizhang said: "When I came to talk, I thought the book was very interesting, so I wanted to try it."

If this statement is replaced by today's Zhou Wenjin, it has no weight, but it is indeed not easy for He Xizhang.I don’t know how many popular artists who have become famous dare not go half a step beyond the threshold. They stick to what they are familiar with and are good at because changes are easy to fail. In places like the entertainment industry, climbing high and falling hard, trying new things Things are very risky.

He Xizhang probably saw what Zhou Wenjin was thinking, and said with a smile: "Director Miao is not afraid, what am I afraid of, besides, my character is not the kind of person in literary films."

Zhou Wenjin thought to himself, hey, it’s true, the people in literary and artistic films are not as noisy as you.

He Xizhang didn't know if he knew what Zhou Wenjin was thinking, but at this moment he looked at him with a little aggrieved look, which made Zhou Wenjin feel a little guilty.Zhou Wenjin said, "What are you doing?"

He Xizhang said: "Fuck...cough, um, let me tell you how you feel about the part where Director Miao and I disagreed today."

He Xizhang said that this scene is located in the latter part of the film. It is about the male protagonist Xu Chusheng who had a narrow encounter with the villain's enemy when he was still fledgling. He surrendered, but Xu Chusheng was unmoved at all, turned his head and left.Miao Shitong's opinion is that Xu Chusheng here is because he has no strength to beat the villain and dare not destroy the people behind him because of his personal feelings, so he has to give up rescuing the heroine at this time, this dilemma Xu Chusheng's choice is very painful for Xu Chusheng, so his emotions should be released, but He Xizhang's opinion is just the opposite, he thinks it should be accepted here.In fact, there is no right or wrong between these two opinions. It depends on the degree of the character level of the protagonist on this key point.

Zhou Wen would like to substitute himself in Xu Chusheng's position, imagining how to deal with this place if it were him.

In the beginning, Xu Chusheng's character was actually very outgoing. Before entering the future world, he was a typical playboy.Because of his good family background, high talent, and a smooth life, everything about him is open.Because in Xu Chusheng's past cognitive experience, nothing can hurt him.After entering the future world, this cognition was not overturned at the beginning. Although Xu Chusheng went to a place he was not familiar with, he felt that everything around him was very new, and he was very interested. I think he's a bit out of his mind, but he didn't come to hurt him.

Next, Xu Chusheng ushered in an important turning point, that is, he saw the broken monument of Taijizong.The Taiji Monument used to be a proud symbol of Xu Chusheng's sect. When he was young, when he didn't want to do his cultivation homework, he fantasized about shoveling this monument all day long.Xu Chusheng had really done this, and he even knocked off a corner of the monument, and as a result he was beaten up by his father unprecedentedly, so he hated and hated this monument, but when he The monument that had been imagined to be destroyed was really destroyed, and after knowing that it was probably him who did it, Xu Chusheng's perception changed 180 degrees.It's like a brat who finally realizes that he has caused a catastrophe, but it is irreparable.Xu Chusheng's character was shaken, and he began to lose his sense of security, so he began to change.He unconsciously looks for those familiar things that have been lost, and he keeps repeating everything in the world of self-cultivation to others because he finally realizes that he no longer has a home that he can go back if he wants to, or a home that he can always go back to if he puts a little effort into it. , Everything he despised and cherished in the past no longer exists!

Xu Chusheng's personality has changed, although it is not obvious, and it seems that he has only become more ostentatious.However, a second turning point followed, and that was the robot mutiny.Because of the complete betrayal of AI, the safety of this world has also been shattered. Xu Chusheng has never been able to return home, and has nowhere to call home, and all the abilities he had in the past have disappeared. He is weak and powerless in front of those robots, so his Confidence was also shattered along with his family, which gave Xu Chusheng's flamboyant character a second hammer.

The third turning point is that Xu Chusheng was finally able to use a little spiritual power at the critical moment, and rescued his friend desperately at the critical moment. Like a firefly, his hope was rekindled.Although it was like a miracle and not easy to happen, Xu Chusheng began to work hard for the most basic qi exercises that he had never looked down upon before.At this time, his personality has begun to undergo a fundamental change, and quantitative changes have accumulated into qualitative changes. At this stage, Xu Chusheng's character has been reshaped from the inside out.Putting away the previous publicity, Xin Xu Chusheng, who was polished by the hardships of life, has become mature, and it is precisely this kind of Xu Chusheng that exudes the charm of personality and begins to gather some people around him-this is In the past, even the noble son of the sect who could call the wind and call the rain could not do it.Under the advancement of such a smooth situation for a while, Xu Chusheng ushered in his fourth turning point, which was the one where He Xizhang and Miao Shitong were in dispute.

In terms of personality, Xu Chusheng has matured at this time and has learned not to expose his weaknesses, so he should not be too emotional; but from the actual situation, Ou Xue is too important to him, let alone At this time, Xu Chusheng fell to the bottom and managed to get up again. He regained his confidence and found his own value, but suffered a second blow. The spiritual pillar and the girlfriend of the second spiritual home, so it makes sense for his immature mind to be unable to withstand the stimulation, and there are shocks.

Zhou Wenjin was in a dilemma. He began to understand Miao Shitong’s hesitation. He could read these levels. Miao Shitong should have read more. But why was He Xizhang so determined? Could it be that he couldn’t read these levels? Is it possible?Zhou Wenjin looked at He Xizhang in puzzlement: "Why did you choose a restrained approach?"

He Xizhang raised the corners of his lips: "Obviously I asked you the question, why did you throw the question back after thinking about it for a long time?"

After the meal, the two of them were sitting on the chairs and chatting, but at some point they slipped to the ground and leaned against the sofa side by side, as if they were having a heart-to-heart conversation.

Zhou Wenjin propped his head on his elbows and said, "No, haven't I already answered you? I'm undecided."

He Xizhang said: "This is normal, because you have not experienced Xu Chusheng's situation. The analysis conclusions of you and Director Miao are all based on imagination, so there are some things you may not notice."

Zhou Wenjin tilted his head: "Could it be that you have experienced such a situation?"

He Xizhang suppressed his smile, and said with a rare seriousness: "Yes."

Zhou Wenjin froze for a moment, what did He Xizhang just say?Has he experienced Xu Chusheng's life?Is it the part where you are flying and domineering, or the part where you are hammered down to the bottom by fate?He doesn't seem to have heard of it.Could it be referring to the part where the young man who tried to commit suicide was persuaded to return through the mouth of the story he mentioned last time?Zhou Wenjin suspected that it was He Xizhang's personal experience. Although he found it incredible, even if it was, it was different from Xu Chusheng's situation.

He Xizhang suddenly asked: "When Ou Xue was arrested, what was the relationship between Xu Chusheng and her?"

Zhou Wenjin: "Huh?"

He Xizhang: "Are they in love?"

Zhou Wenjin: "Forget it... ambiguous, although I didn't say it clearly, but from falling in love to fighting side by side to fighting side by side, the relationship between the two of them can be seen by people around them is not the same."

"So are they in love?"

"Uh... didn't I answer it already?"

"Are they in love?"

Zhou Wenjin thought for a long time, and finally shook his head: "If you want to express it clearly, there is no relationship that can be completely affirmed." The private feelings of the two protagonists created in this film are actually hidden. This is probably not only the implicit need of the film’s oriental style, but also the appearance of love that Miao Shitong’s generation thinks. It's not going to end with a long, hot kiss like in Hollywood.

He Xizhang said: "Yes, they did not clearly show that they are already in a relationship with each other. Others can only guess, so the villain here is catching Ou Xuelai and threatening Xu Chusheng. Either because someone in the protagonist's team informed some The news is either a coincidence, but chance is obviously untenable, and the whistleblower does not exist."

"Maybe it's because Xu Chusheng attaches great importance to all partners?"

"Actually, it's because Ou Xue is the heroine." He Xizhang joked.

Zhou Wenjin: "..."

He Xizhang laughed: "Don't worry, the villain doesn't know Director Miao. You can think of it this way, in this world where the decent and the villain don't have many chances to meet each other, the reason why the villain caught the important person Ou Xuelai to threaten Xu Chu The reason for the promotion is firstly as you said, Xu Chusheng values ​​all partners, so anyone can be arrested, Ou Xue is just unlucky; second, Ou Xue is a woman, Xu Chusheng's self-cultivation and moral standards do not allow him to watch Seeing a woman die because of herself. However, grabbing a partner to threaten someone is probably much less effective than grabbing someone's girlfriend and threatening him, so in this case, Xu Chusheng's best The way to deal with it is to leave calmly, making the villain think that the hostages he captured are not important at all."

"I don't agree." Zhou Wenjin said, "What you're talking about is only an ideal state. In fact, Ou Xue is an important person to Xu Chusheng. , then Ou Xue's life will be in danger..."

He Xizhang shook his head: "Xu Chusheng is not calm, he dares not to be calm, and he really can't turn back, he doesn't even have a minute or a second to show his emotions, because he knows that the longer he stays, the more he expresses The bigger the loophole, the more dangerous the heroine is, so his feelings here must be accepted. The reason why he runs fast is because he can only run fast.

One is because it won't help for him to stay; the other is because he needs to hurry up and find a way to save people; the third is to make the villain confused about his feelings for Ou Xue.If Ou Xue was his girlfriend, Xu Chusheng shouldn't have left; if Ou Xue was just an ordinary partner, Xu Chusheng shouldn't have left either; but Xu Chusheng left without even looking back, why?The villain will be puzzled, hesitant, and think about what Xu Chusheng arranged for the last trick or something more important happened temporarily. Xu Chusheng shifted the focus of the villain's attention to himself, and the heroine survived. "

Zhou Wenjin half-understood: "You mean to pretend you don't care just because you care?"

He Xizhang said: "To be more precise, because I care, I must not care."

"It's a mouthful..."

He Xizhang looked at Zhou Wenjin with deep eyes, as if there were turbulent waves in the depths, but the surface was calm.Zhou Wenjin also looked back at him, but couldn't help marveling at He Xizhang's superb acting skills in his heart. He felt that this man's control over micro-expressions had reached the peak. Looking at He Xizhang, Zhou Wenjin almost thought that there was someone standing in front of him. It was Xu Chusheng who must not care because he cared.

I can't pretend not to care, maybe it's because... By the way, Zhou Wenjin had a flash of inspiration, maybe it's because the other party is also a master of acting, if he pretends, he will be found out, the only way is to lie to himself, to lie to himself , you don't care.Therefore, driven by that seemingly calm but actually crazy emotion, Xu Chusheng calmly and efficiently left the stronghold where he had fought side by side with Ou Xue for a long time.He walked in a hurry, like a person who only cared about his other goals, and ran all the way to a very far place, for example, across the ocean, and even stayed for seven years before returning.

Zhou Wenjin suddenly came back to his senses, and after a daze, he laughed dumbly. What the hell was he thinking? It was all because of He Xizhang's foreshadowing, which caused him to inadvertently link his and Xu Chusheng's situations together.
