red dust upside down

Although Lu Yunbai said it calmly, she actually cared about it. Before going home that night, she urged Li Shang: "If you want to shoot, do it seriously, time is tight."

She is actually not impatient. After all, Lu He usually completes the script and set on the first day, and the shooting can start in the afternoon. It takes four days to shoot and two days to edit, so it is often too late, and the results of last week will be announced soon. rush to work.

Li Shang was calm: "The script hasn't come out yet, what's the rush?"

But Lu Yunbai still couldn't compare to Lin Sa in terms of dismantling the stage. Su Rong quietly said to him: "Senior brother, Li Shang said that he gave me his first short movie." Lin Sa laughed when he heard it. Shang was annoyed by Zhan Xingzhou's song "Sister", so he knew why he gave away the movie.On the contrary, Su Rong didn't think of going there.Lin Sa then smiled and said, "They learn directing, and their graduation work usually requires a short film, which can't be counted as the first one."

"Oh……"

"However, if they value their works very much, they usually only give them to very important people."

Su Rong was blushed by Lin Sa's supplementary words. When she returned to the hotel, Li Shang was watching a movie. When she saw him, she greeted him, "Sister, come and watch the movie."

Su Rong was going to go there, but when he said that, he stood still. Li Shang smiled and said, "Where did you think? This time it's really a movie."

"Not like last time?"

"No."

No wonder Su Rong is vigilant, Li Shang really does not do good things, the last time Su Rong seriously wanted to know the directors he talked with Lu He, and asked Li Shang to recommend movies, Li Shang took him to watch "Eyes Wide Shut" on the first day It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was Jiuchi Roulin, the scene was very chaotic and scared Su Rong away.This time, Li Shang made repeated promises, so he came obediently, and was held in Li Shangquan's arms, watching a black and white movie cut like a slideshow.

Although Li Shang often laughed at him for watching literary films, in fact, what Su Rong watched were soft literary films, with literary lines, beautiful pictures, and a slower pace. He couldn't watch real literary films.After a while he dozed off, Li Shang saw it funny and kissed him.

In fact, he also knows that Su Rong can't see it. Su Rong has a kind of taste that is unique to people who grew up in happiness. He likes all light and shallow things, even himself. He is like a fresh strawberry. , the cream on the cake, which looks fragile, is actually a stable state.Those painful darkness are difficult to infiltrate his essence, and also prevent him from exploring deeper into the dark side of the world.

But Li Shang didn't think Su Rong was so bad, and he didn't want Su Rong to understand.He's not interested in movies per se, and his taste doesn't mean he likes them, he's just trained well.But Su Rong is just the opposite of him. Su Rong has grown up to this day almost at will. He has almost no experience of twisted darkness. He likes colors, fruits, and sunny pictures. He seems to be left by fate to Li Shang. a gift.

Li Shang started filming on the second day, the screenwriter wrote the script overnight and sent it over, Li Shang directly cut off half of the dialogue, the screenwriter is a new girl with a very good temper, and may have added Li Shang's charm, there is no objection .The scene on the other side was also quickly set up, that is, the Han Palace in the film and television city was used.

Su Rong used to come to the set to watch the shooting, but this was the first time he came to "Li Shang's set", and his perspective was different.The director had too many things to take care of, maybe Lu He had greeted him, and the crew on the set accepted this "new director" without much entanglement, and turned to him for everything.So he was busier than when he was filming, Li Shang had a bad temper, and looked a little more aggressive than Lu He. The prop teacher liked the Japanese style too much, and arranged the scene like a Japanese grocery store. He caught him and scolded: "I'll say it again. Once again, there must be a feeling of decay and being forgotten, do you not understand human speech?" Lu Yunbai heard it from the side and shook her head again and again.

At that time, Jian Ke also came to watch the excitement, Su Rong told him immediately, "Don't cut Li Shang's cursing, otherwise we won't shoot."

In fact, although Li Shang has a bad temper, he is still very good at doing things. When cursing people, he just focuses on things and doesn't have the habit of venting his emotions.After a short break-in period, I didn't bother to scold, and when I saw an object that didn't please my eyes, I kicked it aside.The photographer was obedient. After all, Lu He's team, Li Shang taught him twice and knew what he wanted. Even Lu Yunbai had some professional knowledge, and told Su Rong: "Li Shang's lens language is very academic."

Su Rong talked about Li Shang's vulgarity all day long, but he couldn't understand Li Shang's elegance.Fortunately, Li Shang gave him the storyboard as well, and he sat behind the monitor and watched Li Shang's filming obediently.Every day until the early hours of the morning, the director was always the last one to leave the set. Most of the street lights were turned off when he left, and we went home together in the snow. It felt like when I was a child, I waited for Yi Zhan and the others to go back together after playing basketball.

Surprisingly, Li Shang shot very quickly, and started to finish on the fourth day. He said this time that he directed and acted himself, but in fact he only had a few shots.After filming, he went to the monitor to see the effect. Su Rong couldn't tell whether it was because he shot well or Lu He said hello. After all, the people on the set were very obedient to him, and even Lu Yunbai was not as frivolous as before. The director is indeed at the top of the entertainment pyramid.

As soon as he was busy, he wanted to make trouble. Su Rong went out to get a draft, came back and continued to watch the filming, and slowly squeezed past the machine. He was next to Li Shang. When he passed by Li Shang, Li Shang suddenly pulled him. Losing his balance, he sat directly in Li Shang's arms.

"Don't get crazy." Su Rong beat him seriously this time, and finally broke free, Li Shang still looked at him with a smile, like a naive adolescent boy.

In fact, Su Rong has also noticed that even though Li Shang has been saying that he doesn't like movies and hates movies all day long, the matter of making movies still makes him a lot clearer.People are like this, always do something, even if you don't like it, as long as you concentrate on doing something, just like exercising, it will make people happy.Whether it is putting together a model or a jigsaw puzzle, or using a movie to create a dream, creation is always fun, even if what you create is not something you like, it will bring a sense of accomplishment.

For a long time, Li Shang has always looked at the world from an onlooker's perspective, cynicism, and his education has instead become his picky weapon. Because of his high IQ and good taste, there is even more reason not to do it.Anyway, the world is so boring, why participate?In fact, his appearance, his talent and his education can make him live a wonderful life and even become a legend.He is a bit like a sapling that was distorted when he was young. Even though he has grown into a towering tree, he still stands in the shadow with a gesture of rejection.

As long as he takes a step back and reconciles with this world, even if he doesn't forgive the bad, as long as he is willing to accept the good, and is willing to fight, immerse, or enjoy life like other people of his age, he will become something everyone looks up to exist.Because even with his indifferent appearance now, he has attracted many people.No one can predict what he will look like by then.

Su Rong waited for that day like waiting for fate.

Even Lin Sa noticed the changes in Li Shang, and when the filming finished on the last day, Lin Sa laughed at him: "How is it? I said creation is more interesting than criticism."

His words just echoed what happened that night because of Zhan Xingzhou's song. In the past, Li Shang would have retorted, but this time he did not fight back, but said lightly: "You want to teach me love lessons again. .”

"Do you want to hear?"

"Say."

Lin Sa laughed and said, "I heard from Xiaorong that you like economics. Have you ever thought that making a movie is so fun, and it would be so interesting if you could work in the stock exchange."

"I'm not a celebrity, so I went to university to study for four years and then came out to be a trader?" Li Shang laughed at him: "Your career advice is really bad. Although I am interested in economics, I haven't lost my mind yet."

"That means you just like economics, not economics."

"Do love experts want to teach me what love is?" Li Shang continued to laugh at him.

Lin Sa didn't feel offended and smiled too.

"You become a star, make a movie, because you make money, even though what you are interested in is economics, this is called liking. But if there is something you don't understand, you don't have something in common, or you don't even like it, but it's stuck in your throat and you can't release it. Throat, stabbed in your heart like a thorn, the happiest scene without him would feel a little darker, this is love."

They are all smart people, and they all know what Lin Sa didn't say.

On the night when the work was released, Su Rong almost lost sleep.

In fact, he was the first to see the edited work, but he was a bit nervous and lost his sense of taste. He couldn't judge whether it was good or bad. He just thought the picture was really good-looking.I don't know if it's Li Shang's preference or for giving it to him, but the color inside is very beautiful and the texture is also good.But it would be fine if it was just his own evaluation. This work is to be broadcast nationwide. Considering that Li Shang is also popular abroad, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a global feedback.

The first thing to come out is the ratings of the program's film critics, and it is a good thing to get the third place. The Chinese people are compassionate, justice and fairness, and the ranking is better than the deserved lower one than the higher one.The moral high ground occupied by the former and the compensatory psychology that it set off may be more practical than taking the first place.

Then there is online public opinion.

In fact, it’s not too ugly no matter what. For an idol actor, being able to make a work is something worthy of admiration in itself.What's more, Su Rong had lined up a week earlier, and the fan club had enough support and food, and the website collapsed as soon as the voting was opened. On the Internet, the trending search is not going down, and the whole network pushes it, and it is almost turned into an open screen advertisement.

But when the real feedback came, he was still very nervous.

Li Shang's short film is about the story of Chen Ajiao, Empress Chen of the Western Han Dynasty. It is said that the screenwriter's sister was born in writing romance dramas.In fact, the screenwriter at the time thought it was Lu He's filming, and had already prepared two more ambitious scripts, but none of them worked.Su Rong doesn't know the language, but he knows the story of the golden house Cangjiao. Li Shang started filming after Chen Ajiao was abolished, interspersed with memories of the two's childhood stories, and the fact that she wanted to use the witch to curse after she fell out of favor...

He didn't understand until the movie review came out.

The film review was from Chen Sheng, and it was called "All of us learn from Akira Kurosawa". At the beginning, I talked about the Japanese director Akira Kurosawa, saying that he is the Shakespeare of the film industry, and that the famous western directors are basically influenced by him. "The Godfather", "The Wilderness" Films such as "A Red Dead Man" are famous in film history, and they all learn from him, and there is also a lot of fun in China, Zhao Yi.In his opinion, the most interesting thing about Akira Kurosawa is that he proved the commonality of cultures. His films born out of Shakespeare's "King Lear" and "Macbeth" were set in Japan and were equally successful. , indicating that the sorrows and joys of human beings have always been common.

After some foreword, he introduced the theme, saying that he was asked by a friend to almost cooperate with a new director, but unfortunately he refused due to prejudice.Unexpectedly, the photography style of this new director is greatly influenced by Akira Kurosawa. His friend has been criticized in recent years, saying that he has become more and more commercialized, but he can't explain why.In fact, one of his significant changes is that he prefers to use over-the-shoulder shots more and more. In fact, frequent switching of over-the-shoulder shots during the dialogue has always spoiled the audience in the industry.Unexpectedly, the new director's lens language is very classical, which may have something to do with the class offered by Akira Kurosawa in their school.

He said that the new director's shots are very textured, especially the one where he goes up the stairs with a candle.He should make a film of the last century (commendative), because what he shows is not his friend's narrative that seems grand but is too dramatic to please the audience, nor is it deliberately dirty like many modern young literary film directors The chaotic city life, his camera has the afterglow of the last orderly and polite era.

This article is actually a bit too literary, but it was the first time a Li Shang fan came out to claim it.Naturally, Su Rong would not let it go, and pushed this article all over the Internet.At this time, Lin Ke's film review also came out, she was more straightforward than Chen Sheng, named Li Shang, and said, "Have you really understood Li Shang's two-line narrative?"

She directly pointed out that Li Shang actually told two versions of the story in this short film. The first one is about the world. Chen Ajiao grew up as a pampered lord, hidden in a golden house, fell out of favor, and wanted to take revenge through witchcraft to abolish the empress... The second one is in the other world, where a homosexual relationship was filmed. It was Chen Ajiao and Chu Fu, a witch who helped her practice witchcraft and was finally executed in the downtown area. The figure in men's clothing in her memory was not Liu Che at all, but Chu Fu. .Li Shang's shots are very cryptic, and the scene where the swallows in the empty court are chasing is a metaphor.

Su Rong was stunned for a moment, and ran to Li Shang to ask, "Really?" Li Shang just laughed.

Su Rong also knew that Li Shang was good, but he never expected him to be so good. After Chen Sheng and the others took the lead in the analysis, more and more film reviews gradually surfaced. Li Shang's film was actually quite artistic, not to mention that the same-sex plot was always a plus. It is a sharp weapon of "forceful style". Some people even said that this movie may be well received internationally like the Korean movie last year. I didn't expect that the ABC of Lishang did not have a little bit of arrogant orientalism like Hollywood directors. It's either Japanese style or a red, extravagant opium style, but it really captures the beauty of Chinese style.

But if it’s just good movie reviews, it’s not Li Shang.

Two days after the film came out, it suddenly started to spread explosively on TiKo. I don’t know if it’s the story of Cangjiao in the Golden House, or Chen Ajiao’s point, or the clothes are beautiful, or the music and dubbing are moving. In short, TiKo has been going on for several days , the number one BGM on the hot list has become Jinwu Zangjiao, a bunch of Internet celebrity girls wearing Hanfu, accompanied by the words of "If you get Gillian, you should store it in a golden house" in Chen Ajiao's memory and ancient music, Made various short videos.Then ordinary users followed suit one after another, and the popularity fed back to social networking sites, directly rushing to the top of the hot search list. People in the industry knew at a glance that this was not the popularity that the navy could create.

Huang Lei is the one who feels the heat most directly, and at her age, she can better understand why young people like this, and explained to Su Rong: "BOSS is really amazing, these primary school students like this, everyone thinks they are Chen Ajiao I’ve lost my heart. There are also people who imitate jumping off a building..."

"Jump off the building?" Su Rong was startled.

"It's not a real dance, it's just a cosplayer addicted to wearing Hanfu. I laughed so hard, and even cut the scenes of the BOSS into it, and they all played heart-wrenching dramas with the BOSS. 80.00% of the new fans in the past two days are It’s from TiKo, and now they’re calling you His Majesty BOSS again. Brother Rong, why don’t we take on another costume drama, the pay is higher, and we’re going to be famous now.”

It stands to reason that he should be happy, but Su Rong browsed the Internet for a long time, reading movie reviews for a while, and TiKo for a while. I am not his opponent.
