1376. Can't tell stories without love?
The movie "Glory of the Prosperous Tang Dynasty" is said to be the Prosperous Tang Dynasty, but in fact, it tells the story of the Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty.
It is a relatively famous lonely city with stories of white-haired soldiers.
The reason why Wang Yifan felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity was that this "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" actually tells a bit similar to an advertisement in his previous life.
It was the last transfer of money from the Tang Dynasty Mobei.
Some things always have amazing coincidences and similarities.
Wang Yifan didn’t know where Yang Qing’s story of “Glory of the Tang Dynasty” came from, but the story was really similar.
The whole film can be said to be quite good, especially the final scene of a lonely city with white haired soldiers, which made countless viewers red their eyes.
However, the movie also has flaws.
The directors in China probably have this kind of problem, as if they are unable to tell stories without love.
For example, some detective dramas were originally good, but they had to add love dramas, but they turned into embarrassing performances, which made the audience very embarrassed.
The same is true for the same "Glory of the Tang Dynasty". The two male protagonists themselves, the move to deliver military pay from thousands of miles is enough, but what is the result?
But on the way, I met a boss lady. My family members died in the war and supported them very much. What was the result?
The boss lady had a relationship with the male protagonist and even got out of bed.
Wang Yifan was also extremely embarrassed when he saw it. He didn't understand why he had to do this in one go. It was simply awkward.
But overall, the movie "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" is at least much better than the previous "Origin" and "The Legend of the Brocade" in terms of scenes, ideas, etc.
At the end of the movie's premiere, Yang Qing brought the main creators to the stage to the end.
After a while, Zhao Dongming and Yang Qing came over.
"Director Wang gives me a comment? Is there any hope that this "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" can take Director Yang a step further?" Zhao Dongming asked with a smile.
Wang Yifan nodded and said, "As for now, "Glory of the Prosperous Tang Dynasty" should be said to be among several major productions of the Spring Festival period. It is relatively excellent, and Yang Qing made it well!"
When Yang Qing heard Wang Yifan's words, he seemed a little humble: "Where are there many shortcomings, please give me more advice."
Yang Qing can indeed be said to be quite confident in "The Glory of the Tang Dynasty".
Moreover, the premiere was quite good.
He was naturally extremely happy to hear Wang Yifan's words and was affirmed by Wang Yifan.
"I really want my advice?" Wang Yifan looked at Yang Qing with a smile.
"Uh, this is natural!" Yang Qing was immediately embarrassed, but he quickly reacted and said quickly.
Zhao Dongming was also a little curious.
He is not a filmmaker himself. From the perspective of the audience, he thinks this movie is pretty good.
However, Wang Yifan's vision was very vicious, so he still attached great importance to Wang Yifan's evaluation.
"A lonely city is full of white-haired soldiers. This story itself is a very good story, but I don't understand why there will be love in the middle? There will be such a passionate scene?" Wang Yifan looked at Yang Qing and asked.
Yang Qing was stunned for a moment and explained with some excuses: "Because the whole movie, including the theme, is too masculine and too sad, I think adding a little emotional scene can lubricate it."
Wang Yifan looked at Yang Qing with a smile and shook his head and said, "As a director, you have your ideas, which is great, but from the perspective of the audience, do you know how I feel when I saw that section?"
The smile on Yang Qing's face suddenly became a little reluctant.
"I think, if I can, I hope to go straight in, because I was embarrassed to watch that paragraph!"
"Many directors in our country will not tell stories well without emotional dramas. This is a common problem for many people, but in fact, many movies do not require too much extra emotion. For example, this "Glory of the Tang Dynasty", this is a story of loyal souls guarding the border, and a story of fighting against foreign enemies. Behind it represents the unyielding spirit of generals and the immortal veterans, symbolizing supreme pride and glory."
"Such a story and such a spirit actually don't require too much sensationalism. The audience will naturally understand it and will feel it deeply!
Some people say that this is a sad story, but in my opinion, it is more of a tragic color. Once, no one else went to the frontier to go, and in the end, the hero died in a foreign land in the late twilight. Countless loyal souls killed the enemy and killed the generals, fought bloody battles, just for the sake of national security and people, and did not regret loyalty. This is a tragic hymn!
At the last moment of their lives, they used their flesh and blood to prove to the world that they were determined to defend their territory to the death.
Any extra thing to add in such a story is a blasphemy. Of course, this is just my own words, just listen to it."
Wang Yifan was inspired by his feelings.
In fact, in my previous life, when I saw this advertisement, Wang Yifan had deliberately searched for relevant information.
This story is not made up.
But it has historical prototypes.
In this story of loyal soul defending the country, the protagonist is Guo Xin. He is the nephew of Guo Ziyi, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty. Guo Xin's father Guo Youming is Guo Ziyi's brother-in-law.
In 781 AD, Guo Xin, who had long lost contact with the Tang Dynasty, finally found out the news. According to the news, he knew that the Tang Dynasty still existed. So Guo Xin sent his most trustworthy soldiers to ask them to go to the Tang Dynasty with his oral message, and told the emperor: "These people still exist and did not die in battle or surrender."
In the end, this group of lonely troops who were forgotten thousands of miles away launched the final charge at the last moment and all died in the battlefield. A lonely city of thousands of miles was full of white-haired soldiers.
In fact, there are similar stories, such as the Thirteen Generals and Men's Recruitment of Yumen, etc.
It can be said that why the history of China is a treasure? For the film and television industry alone, these historical stories from the past can be said to be the best material.
It’s just a pity that many directors, including private goods, or randomly film, end up taking pictures of themselves in a mess!
In the Battle of Red Cliffs in the Three Kingdoms, Wu Baige was photographed as a street fight in the Black Club.
In contrast, it can be said that in Wang Yifan's opinion, Yang Qing's version of "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" can be considered excellent.
When Zhao Dongming heard Wang Yifan's words, he agreed, and although Yang Qing was a little embarrassed, he still nodded.
Whether he listened or not, Wang Yifan didn't care. He just couldn't speak up. Of course, maybe someone liked this tone and couldn't tell.
"Director Wang thinks that is it possible for "Glory of the Tang Dynasty" to win this year's Spring Festival?" Zhao Dongming asked tentatively.
Wang Yifan smiled and said, "Overall, I am quite optimistic about "Glory of the Prosperous Tang Dynasty"!"
