I'm not a drama freak, I can really see through the script

Chapter 74, you call this the extras in the Hengdian circle?

Chapter 74, you call this the extras in the Hengdian circle?
Group performance.

Extras in Hengdian.

At this moment, the expressions of those gossip media instantly became dishonest. Speaking of which, this extra from Hengdian is quite handsome.
With this appearance, it wouldn't feel out of place even if someone said he was from Beijing Film Academy or Shanghai Theatre Academy.

Recently, gossip in Beijing circles revolves around the movie "Lan Yu". It's not about how popular the movie is, but the behind-the-scenes stories of the movie make people smile. It feels like everyone understands.

Could it be that Jiang Wen and the guy from Hengdian also have this kind of relationship?

Hearing these rustling sounds, Lu Chuan was also conflicted.
There is a sense of refreshment, but this sense of refreshment is actually obtained by belittling a person whose origin and status are inferior to his own. Is the sense of refreshment obtained in this way really refreshing? On the contrary, it does not make him feel refreshed at all, and he feels a sense of emptiness.

But once words are spoken, they cannot be taken away.
"Hey, you're jealous, kid." Jiang Wen could naturally see Lu Chuan's mood: "Don't mind it, that kid is young and hot-tempered, a little naive."

"Mr. Jiang, actually, in terms of age, I should be the younger one."

At this time, Li Xuan smiled slightly, but did not show any anger. After all, Lu Chuan did not say anything wrong. He was indeed from the Hengdian Road Curb Circle, and there was nothing wrong with admitting this.
I am from Hengdian and I am proud.

"Oh my. What a good kid."

Jiang Wen felt that his disciple was several years older than Li Xuan.

Whether in terms of style of dealing with people or demeanor, he is not even a hair's breadth behind others.

If possible, he would rather hope that his apprentice is Li Xuan.
Jiang Wen asked Li Xuan before the movie started.

"By the way, how was your experience taking the Beijing Film Academy exam this year?"

"It's not bad, it should be okay to get into the undergraduate program."

"Well, I heard that you guys at Beijing Film Academy have a guy who got full marks in three rounds."

"Are you curious about who it is? Mr. Jiang?"

"I'm a little curious, but not much." Jiang Wen paused and said, "The entertainment industry is ultimately a practical industry. There have been many top-scoring artists over the years, but a wealth of theoretical knowledge doesn't necessarily mean they're proficient in practice. Frankly speaking, I don't think you're any better than this top-scoring artist."

After all, entertainment and arts are practical things. Jiang Wen feels that the best thing about Beijing Film Academy compared to the Central Academy of Drama, and what he appreciates most, is that Beijing Film Academy does not forbid students from filming while studying, and even encourages students to do so.

The Central Academy of Drama is much more old-fashioned in this regard.

The educational method adopted by students is to learn the theory first and then think about filming.

The difference between theorists and practitioners.

At this time Li Xuan asked curiously.

Then Mr. Jiang Wen, why didn’t you go to the Beijing Film Academy but chose to go to the Central Academy of Drama?

Of course, the Beijing Film Academy didn’t let me go because they thought I was ugly.

Well, this reason is indeed true enough.

Jiang Wenye is indeed not very handsome.

Um.
"So, this industry is ultimately one where practice outweighs theory. So I think, after you get into Beijing Film Academy, the first and most important thing is to not give up on acting and not give up on learning. The theoretical knowledge you learn at Beijing Film Academy can solidify your foundation, but don't rely solely on theory."

Of course, after all, for me, taking on a role and filming is itself a part of learning.

Dark blue, add some more.

At this time, Jiang Wen told Li Xuan the concept of a star student.

If outstanding students from Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama can win the three major awards in television or film before graduation, they will be considered star students with a bright and promising future. Zhang Ziyi is one of them. When she was a senior, she won the Best New Actress Award at the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan.

Now it is at its peak.

This is true excellence.

Although Jiang Wen talked incessantly and gave Li Xuan some scientific advice during the garbage time before the broadcast of "Looking for a Gun", he felt in his heart that the idea of star students was still too vague. How many Zhang Ziyi were there in this world?

Our expectation for Li Xuan is that he can combine theoretical knowledge with practice during his time at school.

Wait until your ban is lifted.

I hope he can stand on his own now.

At this time, Li Xuan and Jiang Wen were chatting enthusiastically. Everyone saw it and looked at Lu Chuan who was sitting on the bench next to them.

It seems that the relationship here is closer.

It must be 'Lan Yu'!

"Looking for a Gun" has begun airing.

In the cinema, an obscure and dark smell permeated the place.

The beginning of the story is extremely depressing.

Jiang Wen plays Ma Shan, a police officer in a small county town, who uses his family as a starting point.
He has no status at home, and his wife's disdain is evident in her words.

There are also many plasters on Mashan's kidneys.

Many camera languages are suggestive.

This is a very typical middle-aged man.

A man who is so desperate in middle age that even soaking wolfberries in a thermos is useless.

His kidneys are not in good shape, his son is not doing well, and his wife doesn't think much of him. Early in the morning, the couple each does their own thing, as if they are strangers. Only the wife's nagging can vaguely reveal the relationship between them. It is a husband and wife relationship.

I have to say that Jiang Wen’s acting skills are amazing.

Just a few shots express the desolation and helplessness of a middle-aged man, as well as the pain he will experience.

Jiang Wen is worthy of his name. Whether it is his talent as a director or his talent as an actor, he is unparalleled.

Just a series of shots at the beginning fully and vividly express the feeling of being down and out.

"Amazing!" Han Ping next to him said, "What an amazing talent."

Having been in charge of the Beijing Film Studio for many years, Han Ping really loves Jiang Wen's talent.

He really has a strong, passionate talent.

This is Jiang Wen. He has such a strong and powerful talent.

In the future, he will surely become a Chinese legend. His strong personal style may even allow him to go abroad and become famous.

After all, he is truly blessed by the God of Talent.

And after discovering that his 'gun' was lost.

The Mashan in front of us is as fierce as a ferocious lion.

Where's the gun!

Where's my gun!
For a middle-aged man without dignity, his 'gun' seems to be his last fig leaf, the only thing that can give him a little bit of false sense of security.

As a jc, the gun was lost.

The following story also revolves around this lost gun.

The main plot begins with the sister's banquet.

The town is not big and everyone knows each other. The lost gun this time seems to be related to the two outsiders who broke into the town.

One is called Zhou Xiaogang.

One is called Li Xiaomeng.

Li Xiaomeng is Ma Shan's first love, while Zhou Xiaogang is the returning boss who owns a large winery.

But this time when he met his first love, the relationship was a little awkward. Li Xiaomeng and Zhou Xiaogang were a couple, but not a serious couple. Li Xiaomeng was Zhou Xiaogang's mistress.

Damn, my white moonlight has become someone else's mistress.

This banquet is really like a bitter wine that goes down my throat and hurts my heart
Ma Shan got very drunk and passed out.

It hurts, it hurts too much.

You can feel Ma Shan's pain through the screen, the conflict in his heart, his acting skills, his forced smile, and what's even more painful is that he actually has a good alcohol tolerance. He obviously drinks according to the standard of being drunk, but he still leaves room for himself to be sober.

It was this moment of clarity that made him feel even more pain. This couple was actually being affectionate in the back of the car. No, Shan was still there.

It's okay, he's drunk.
The voice of wanting to refuse but also to accept almost tore Ma Shan apart.

It almost tears the audience's mood apart.

For the audience, they can also put themselves in Ma Shan's shoes and feel his pain.

Afterwards, you have to pretend that nothing happened and pretend that you knew nothing, so that you can still retain a little dignity.

a little.

Just a little.

The reminiscence of good memories at the dinner table turned into the sharpest steel knife, stabbing into Ma Shan's heart when Zhou Xiaogang and Li Xiaomeng were being affectionate in the back seat of the car.

This paragraph is described in great detail.

After the pain, continue looking for the lost gun.

Fellow villagers.

There is also Stuttering Liu, a man who stops stuttering when he meets Ma Shan.

Selling jelly.

Selling mutton soup.

There are many hints in it that are both pointed and ambiguous in meaning.

But the audience is not distracted. In addition to the undoubted acting skills of the protagonist Jiang Wen, the acting skills of other actors are also not much inferior, and they are completely integrated into the ancient town of Qingyan.

Some of these supporting roles are migrant workers from Beijing, while some of the important positions are employed by drama clubs and troupes.

Li Xuan's stuttering Liu has also completely integrated into the ancient town.

Seeing this, the media friends put away their contempt. It turned out that the person who could make Jiang Wen treat him so well must be no simple person.

He is very harmonious, and his authentic Guizhou dialect makes his slightly handsome appearance seem very down-to-earth.

“It’s a good performance.”

Han Ping was also a little surprised. This man's performance was really quite surprising.

If he is said to be a top student from some family, it is not that surprising. It can only be said that he has great potential.

But if you say he is from Hengdian, then this performance is very impressive.

There is no such natural Hengdian product.

At this moment, Lu Chuan didn't expect that his revelations would actually improve Li Xuan's image in everyone's mind.

As for the movie itself, the evaluation of Lu Chuan has slightly declined.

Because Jiang Wenwen in this movie is too sophisticated.

Everyone says it's a movie disguised as Jiang Wen's, but you didn't say the flavor would be so pure.

The flavor is so pure, what you, Lu Zhen, wrote is just a director's title!

As the movie goes on.

Everyone gradually immersed themselves in the movie and followed Ma Shan on his journey to find the gun.

Searching for the pistol lost at the wedding reception.

That Type 54 rifle.

As the plot progresses, Ma Shan encounters more and more people, including a thief, a stutterer, Zhou Xiaogang, Li Xiaomeng, and more and more people, making the case not only unable to be solved, but even more confusing.

It's not the confusing plot, but the large-scale shaking and rotation of the camera that makes the whole set of shots look dreamy.

And this also seems to foreshadow the direction of the plot.

The pistol went off.

There were three bullets in the lost gun, one of which hit Li Xiaomeng. According to his confession, he died while blocking the bullet for Zhou Xiaogang.

Dead people.

In order to kill Zhou Xiaogang, Li Xiaomeng has now become a scapegoat. Ma Shan seems to know how to lure out the person who stole the gun.

It turns out his method worked.

That is to pretend to be Zhou Xiaogang and lure out the armed thief.
A bullet hit Ma Shan.

It turned out that the thief was Stuttering Liu.

Ask him why he wanted to kill Zhou Xiaogang?
Because my whole family was killed by his fake wine, I want to kill him.

At this time, the stuttering Liu looked like a madman. He did not stutter at all, nor did he show the timidity of a common people. He was fierce and grinning. The camera was pointed directly at his face, and he looked like he had a weapon in his heart and was ready to kill.

Completely different from the stuttering Liu at the beginning.

He was neither stuttering nor cowardly, and even when he held the gun in his hand, he was determined to kill. It was not a spur-of-the-moment impulse, but a premeditated one.

Facing the gun with one bullet left, Ma Shan said calmly.

Give the gun back and you are not allowed to kill anyone.

No, I want to kill him, I must kill him.

In this scene, the look between Ma Shan and Liu Jieba is like a person looking in a mirror.

I just don't know which side is real and which side is a mirror.

After all, Ma Shan is the mirror of Stuttering Liu.

Or is the reverse true?
During the argument, Ma Shan used a toy gun to force out the last bullet.

This is the end.

Three bullets, two lives, the story ended here.

The movie also ends here, with the last shot of Masan's soul standing up and leaving.

The last laughing shot ends.

Laughing loudly, laughing wildly.
