Anecdotes of characters

Give up work and pursue the dream of directing.

Fan Xiaolong was born in a peasant family in Zhungeer Banner, Inner Mongolia. After graduating from high school, he joined the army. Four months after joining the army, he was admitted to the Military Region Cultural and Art Troupe and engaged in the career of director. Retired from the army in 2004. At school and in the army, they are the backbone of literature and art. They can not only perform, but also create their own literary programs. One night, after watching the TV series "Liu Laogen", he had a whim: I want to make a movie, because Zhungeer Banner's economy has developed, farmers' lives are rich, and there are many things worth recording with pictures. In this way, Fan Xiaolong, who has never made a movie, picked up the camera. At first, he thought it was easy to make a movie. He just pointed a camera at it. At this time, he didn't even know where the camera switch was. However, at the end of 2008, Fan Xiaolong gave up the renovation work with an annual income of 654.38+10,000 yuan, began to write a script and made up his mind to make a movie.

The birth of debut

The first film planned by Fan Xiaolong is an inspirational story of a disabled girl in Qingshuihe County. Invested 654.38 million yuan to buy cameras, computers, rocker arms, vans and other equipment, and officially started shooting the debut. However, because of the high shooting cost and many scenes and characters involved, the film could not be filmed after only three minutes, so Fan Xiaolong had to give up the first one.

By April 2009, many people were talking about him behind his back and giving him a way out. However, the stubborn young man Fan Xiaolong was not discouraged by the failure of his first attempt. He seized the time to start his creation again, and decided to shoot a film about farmers for the villagers that summer, so there was the film "Second Brother". This film tells the touching story of the protagonist Pinger running around to raise 200,000 yuan to treat his seriously ill sister.

It took him a week to finish the script. In order to save money, comrade-in-arms Su Wei played Pinger, the hero in the film. Except Su Wei and the actress, all the actors in the play are workers who used to decorate with Fan Xiaolong, and all the actors have no performance fees. For these actors who are mostly construction workers and decoration workers, the shooting time is very limited. As long as these migrant workers actors have time, Fan Xiaolong grabs the camera to shoot. Slowly, Fan Xiaolong spent all his savings, and the film was unsustainable. Just then, his comrade-in-arms, Han, who played the driver in the drama "Second Brother", offered him 65,438+10,000 yuan to shoot, which moved Fan Xiaolong to have nothing to say.

During the filming process that lasted more than four months, the crew members overcame many difficulties. In July 2009, Fan Xiaolong and his peasant brothers completed the filming of the film "Second Brother". From a professional point of view, the artistic techniques and acting skills of this film are a bit immature, and the post-production is a bit rough. However, the audience believes that it is a great success for a group of native farmers to put the story based on real rural life on the screen without funds and equipment. After the film closed, it was shown in Zhungeer Square every night, which was well received by the audience.

Grassroots movies have been well received.

At the beginning of 20 10, the second film "Village Official" was started. Fortunately, this time a company promised to sponsor half of the funds to shoot together. In order to make the film better, the cost from actor audition to hiring a photographer has also risen. Unexpectedly, on the day of shooting, the investors suddenly interrupted their cooperation. In desperation, Fan Xiaolong had to bite the bullet and go forward until the film was halfway through. At this time, some busybodies deliberately looked around to see what "magic" this whimsical peasant director had. Just when he was short of money, Fan Xiaolong once again made a decision that stunned everyone: sell the wedding room! As soon as this idea was exported, it was strongly opposed by his wife, and relatives and friends around him also advised him to "stop" quickly. What can Fan Xiaolong do when riding a tiger? There is still a glimmer of hope to move forward, and backing out means that all previous efforts have been in vain. Except for the peasant brothers who filmed with him, Fan Xiaolong really reached the desperate situation of "betraying his loved ones". It is in this situation that he completed the filming of the film Village Official, which was shown on Zhungeer TV for the first time and won unanimous praise from the audience. 20 1 1 With the support of the flag committee and the flag government, the third film "Pursuing Happiness" was filmed, with the theme of eco-migration in Zhunqi. The film tells the story of "Longshui Village". The villagers in this village live in extremely bad environment. There is no water, no electricity and no road in the village, so it is called "three villages without electricity". In order to fundamentally improve farmers' production and living conditions and improve the local natural environment, the Banner Committee and the Banner Government implemented the project of ecological migration benefiting the people, which reproduced the new life of contemporary farmers.

The film takes "agriculture, countryside and farmers" as the theme and Zhungeer Banner's ecological immigration policy as the background, recording the real life around farmers.

The language is full of local characteristics, and the film presents a fresh, euphemistic and touching artistic charm with its simple and sincere creative style and natural and delicate plot through smooth and beautiful film pictures.

The release of the film has injected fresh blood into the cultural prosperity and development of Zhungeer Banner, which is another innovative measure for Zhungeer Banner to vigorously promote the great development and prosperity of literature and art on the basis of great achievements in economic construction. This is of great significance to vigorously promote Zhungeer literature, enhance cultural soft power and promote sound and rapid economic and social development.
