Donggou Village is indeed very simple, with basically no decent houses. Although what is shown in the movie is not a complete picture of the entire Donggou Village, it is actually almost the same. The crew rented two courtyards, which are considered to be the two best courtyards in Donggou Village. One is the home of the village chief, the other is the home of the richest man in the village, and the other is the home of a small restaurant owner in Fengning. These two homes are both. It's a large tile-roofed house, which is quite modern, and the boss has a TV to watch, which is considered a luxury in the village. In the past, many people would go to the boss's house to watch TV every day, but after being rented by Zhang Yimou, few people came to watch TV. It's not that Zhang Yimou refused to give in, but that everyone was busy watching and making movies. What's more, Zhang Yimou also brought a color TV and connected it to a satellite receiver at the village committee. Who would watch the black and white one? It would be impossible to film in Donggou without establishing a good relationship with the local villagers. Even if Zhang Yimou is a famous international director, television can be regarded as a benefit to the villagers. Moreover, the extras in the movie were also from Donggou Village, and they cost ten yuan a day. Ten yuan is a huge sum of money to the villagers. No wonder the people in Xishan Village are jealous. If you want to perform in a group, if you are not from Donggou Village, can you do it? At this time, Zhang Yimou came back with Ye Ming. The crew finally knew why the boss's house had an upper room. There were two upper rooms in the boss's house, one in the east and one in the west. The one in the east was where Zhang Yimou usually lived. , the one on the west side has always been empty. Everyone is wondering whether it was left to Ye Ming. Sure enough, when Ye Ming arrived, Zhang Yimou pointed to the best house in the village and said unceremoniously: "Ye Ming, this one to the west is yours." The other crew and actors of the crew are crowded into other people's homes. Even the heroine Zhang Ziyi actually lives with Aunt Li, who plays the grandmother. If you want to have good conditions like the boss's home, then basically It is impossible to go up. And because the conditions of the boss's house are good, Zhang Yimou also lives here. Meetings, discussions of plots, etc. all start in the lobby. This is something that everyone has become accustomed to over the past few days. Ye Ming came in boldly. Sun Honglei, who was sitting on the side reading the script, immediately stood up and said a little cautiously: "Mr. Ye, you are here. We are just waiting for you to come. You will give us more guidance in the future." Sun Honglei is older than Ye Ming, but he is the Golden Horse Best Actor. This title is enough for Ye Ming to guide any actor in the crew to act. Don't be dissatisfied, the mainland's first Golden Horse Best Actor has a pretty strong brand. Aunt Li also stood up and said: "It's a good thing that Xiaoye is here. It seems that we will have a good celebration tonight." On the contrary, in such a situation, Zhang Ziyi said a little jealously: "Li Auntie, if we from poor and remote areas want to celebrate, we must have the conditions to celebrate, and we can’t celebrate by drinking polenta.”
Aunt Li is also an experienced actress, so naturally she can understand the sour taste in Zhang Ziyi's words, and it's not just because of the remuneration. This matter is actually not news to the crew, but it is said that at the beginning, Zhang Ziyi's salary was 10,000, and Ye Ming's was 20,000. Zhang Ziyi had nothing to say about this, and Ye Ming's "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" was also a hit. As a star of the Spring Festival Gala, 20,000 yuan is not much. However, after the remuneration was changed this time, Zhang Ziyi's salary was still 10,000, but Ye Ming's was 180,000. How can Zhang Ziyi easily accept such a gap? Therefore, Zhang Ziyi has been feeling depressed these days, especially when Zhang Yimou did not arrange a room on the west side for her, which made her feel angry. Therefore, after seeing Ye Ming coming, she had no intention of standing up. In fact, according to the rules in the circle, Ye Ming is the biggest bowler in the movie. Therefore, when he comes over, everyone stands up to say hello. In fact, this is also a rule. Although it is said to be an unspoken rule, no matter what it is. In fact, basically no one will disobey it. Even the old-timer Aunt Li stood up to say hello. However, Zhang Ziyi sat there as if she was still there, as if she didn't see Ye Ming come in at all. Under such a situation, Ye Ming said he was a little unhappy. Rules are rules. Relying on a good relationship with the director, he not only refused to stand up and say hello, but also said such sour words in a sarcastic way. This was a challenge to Ye Ming's status. However, at this time, Zhang Yimou seemed to have heard something in the east room and came out to tell everyone: "We will gather together later to arrange how to film in the afternoon." This is a relief for Zhang Ziyi. This is actually the case in the crew. The director is the boss. Of course, sometimes, producers or big names can also suppress the director. But when it comes to a big international director like Zhang Yimou, that means there is no one who looks good. Dare to suppress him? Whatever happened to Zhang Weiping, he would discuss it with Zhang Yimou. He would never dare to say that he would suppress Zhang Yimou to death. Therefore, Ye Ming also saw that Zhang Yimou wanted to protect Zhang Ziyi, so he didn't say anything more. Zhang Yimou glanced at the big guy and said: "Let's break up now, Ye Ming, you have just arrived, let's get familiar with your script first. In fact, if everything goes smoothly for your role, it will basically last half a month. " The father's lines are very few, and may not even be more than those of Sun Honglei. The real protagonist of the movie is the mother played by Zhang Ziyi who recruits her younger brother, while the father is a green leaf-like existence. In fact, if you look at it, the father's script is as good as one. Basically, it’s over if you can’t even use a piece of paper. On the other hand, some scenes of my father are rather difficult to grasp. For example, when the father returns to Sanhetun for the first time, he looks back at his mother in the crowd. This can be said to be the first close-up shot of his father in the movie. The emotion of this shot is not very well grasped. As for looking at the script, the first line is actually a voiceover, the voice of his father teaching, but the camera is still given to Zhang Ziyi, which shows that Zhang Yimou's drama is actually praising Zhang Ziyi. However, Ye Ming had known about this for a long time, so he actually had no complaints at all about his few lines. There are only a few limited shots, but actually they have to be put into full play. This is what tests people. At this time, Zhang Ziyi had already said to leave, and Sun Honglei came over with the script and said: "Mr. Ye, I have a question here that I want to ask. I wonder if you have time." Ye Ming said with a smile: "Brother Sun, you are so polite. This is not the first time we have met. Just call me Ye Ming." Sun Honglei then relaxed his restrained expression and said, "Then I will That's a big deal. Brother Ye Ming, I have a shot here. Director Zhang shot it for a long time and took more than ten shots, but Director Zhang didn't take notice of any of them. Tell me, what's the problem? " I pointed out what I didn’t understand to Ye Ming. Ye Ming read the script, and it was actually the same expression I had when I read the news about my father’s death. Ye Ming thought for a moment and said, "How did you perform it? With a sad expression, crying or something like that?" Sun Honglei thought for a while and said: "The relationship between father and son. If a son knows that his father has passed away, he will not cry at all. Basically speaking, it is impossible for such a thing to happen. I think it is the case for everyone. I’m going to cry.” Ye Ming immediately asked, "But you were sad, you cried, and the director didn't approve of it. Do you know why?" Sun Honglei was stunned for a moment, he really didn't think about why.
Ye Ming said without hesitation: "Emotions are the most complicated thing. Just like the sky under the autumn moon, they are vast and unfathomable. Everyone's understanding of sadness is different, so the effect of expressing it is also different. Yes. Let me give you an example of autumn. [The cold moon shines on the clear autumn, the evening breeze carries the red building, a few acacia leaves, the past flows like water, people are like the bright moon, the moon is like sorrow, and sorrow is like frost all over the autumn. 】 This poem does not mean the infinite loneliness of autumn at all. However, when you hear this poem, the first thing you think of is the lonely scene of autumn. It is sad for spring and autumn, but in fact it is nothing more than that. Every word in this poem expresses the artistic conception of autumn. In fact, the same is true for feelings, the way of expression is different, as long as you express your inner sadness. You don’t need to be sad immediately when you hear the news. It is enough to express your sadness when you see your mother. The visual impact produced in this way is the most powerful. Shocking. Remember, film is an art that comes from life, but it is also higher than life. You have to express this in this movie. " In fact, crying is not what Zhang Yimou wants. In his previous life, Sun Honglei did not cry when he heard the news. Therefore, Ye Ming concluded that the artistic conception Zhang Yimou wanted to express in such a scene was not actually for Sun Honglei to Sad, but what I want is a visual impact. After Ye Ming's reminder, Sun Honglei suddenly realized: "No wonder, no matter how much I cried, I didn't meet the director's requirements. Brother Ye, thank you. I will treat you to dinner when I get back." Although Sun Honglei also knew, If you invite Ye Ming to dinner, it's hard to say whether he will go and show your respect, but you have to say this.
