Lan Shanluo plays Xiaohui, a native of Hunan, who was a worker when his hand was cut by a colleague.

So I ran to Dongguan.

Working in a nightclub,

I met the escort girl played by Li Meng. After the dream of love was shattered,

Xiaohui went to work in a restaurant again, and her mother came.

Ask him why he didn't send money back,

Do you spend money outside,

Constant nagging makes Xiaohui unbearable.

I cut my hand before.

Our colleagues also came for revenge.

Finally Xiaohui picked up the weapons on the ground.

But I don't know who to shoot,

In despair, he climbed onto the upper terrace.

Jump down.

Jia and the theory of fate.

The first part: Jia's self-narration.

Violence inflicted by the weak on the weak,

How is violence formed in China society? In various events,

Victims of violence become violent.

What is the reason for enforcing the executor? Through discussion between Weibo and that media,

But I think there is a lack of artists to present it from an aesthetic point of view.

Understand me

Our society, from the perspective of news, also from the perspective of artists. To understand the cash society, imagination is as important as reality. So I'm here

A script based on four true stories.

The first story happened in my hometown of Shanxi.

Political corruption and rural poverty

Differentiation makes ordinary farmers raise shotguns;

The focus of the contradiction is the reorganization of public-private partnerships in coal mines.

Unfair distribution.

The second story happened in Chongqing.

In the village, young people who left home to work found that guns changed their lives; He became a professional criminal and "realized himself" in the crime.

. sequence

Three stories happened in Hubei,

A sauna attendant was tried to rape by a guest.

And beat her with money.

The fourth story happened in

In Dongguan and Hunan, young people frequently change jobs in various factories and finally commit suicide without warning.

These are all events that I have been obsessed with for years.

Later, I learned that the situation of the people in the incident and the story of the martial arts film are very

Similarly,

I'm glad to find a suitable film language to describe contemporary China. It also makes me sad, because I found out

These events have nothing to do with the Song Dynasty.

The Water Margin is the same as that in Hu Jinquan's martial arts works in the Ming Dynasty. In the process of social change,

Personal life is in danger.

Machine, can only rise to solve by force, but this is a tragedy. I was very sad, so I devoted myself to shooting this film and let it convey my feelings.

Heartache.

In the movie,

I have also used Peking Opera.

Lin chong on the run

Fragments of,

Lin Chong found out.

(Gao Qiu)

Years of persecution against him,

Escape to the mountain temple. He let me see China people running, the whole China society moving, and fun run wandering in the Jianghu. From this angle

Generally speaking, this movie is all about escape.

Part II: Question and answer of the film.

1

This movie is too violent.

, how to pass the audit in China? Does the widespread use of Weibo contribute to the development of movies?

Jia: Everyone was worried when filming last year. In mainland China, there are few movies about violence in contemporary life.

Everyone doubts whether it can pass the test. I have two reasons:

1

I have the determination to shoot. Because in my life, every time,

It has been affecting me, and I am not happy without filming. In an atmosphere of violence, there is no film to reflect it.

As a director, I am ashamed.

My wife.

Zhao Tao, the movie star, is also worried. I'm going to never make a movie again.

2

I think I have a chance to pass the trial.

These things are well known,

You can discuss it in Weibo,

Journalists and filmmakers face the same era.

They can discuss,

Why can't we?

The appearance of Weibo changed our understanding of China.

The characteristics of this film are

Before Weibo, everyone thought it was accidental or fictional.

But after Weibo,

He is our heavy life.

We watch this every day.

It's kind of news,

But our understanding of violence is not enough.

Based on this understanding of the reality in China,

I think I can pass it.

Trial. In order to reduce violence,

We must start by being able to face violence.

A film critic told him that he personally liked the film, and I

Say that you are a person and don't be divorced from your career. After the screening in May, more events happened.

Including an old man burning.

There's a bus,

A Shandong youth exploded at the Capital Airport.

I think we should look for the root of violence, which is a fact.

Sudden and violent

There are social problems and people's hearts.

Violence is about dignity,

When it happens, dignity is taken away.

And then I thought

Violence is also related to expression,

Because it is impossible to indicate that there is no channel,

Suffering unspeakable pain also pushed him to a violent situation.

Reason.

So I think our society needs open channels of expression.

Including my movies, should be put on the big screen in China.

at present

It is planned to be released in 1 1 month.

In retrospect,

The film was made quickly, and many people said I was brave.

But I think I'm not brave enough,

I just want to pick up the camera.

There is no cowardice in the machine.

2

Why do you think it can be expressed in movies? How?

Jia: They didn't see their growing environment in the news.

How they live,

You can't see the emotional world.

This is what I want.

Capture,

I want to show it in the movie.

Why should I film four people,

In fact, everyone can make a whole movie by himself. Because of violence

It is accidental to look at it alone.

But in China,

This is a common phenomenon,

I want to present it in the form of social problems. I want these.

There are subtle connections in the story.

For example, the workers in the first story left Shanxi and went back to Chongqing to sit in the spring with the protagonist in the second story.

On the boat home at Christmas.

In the third story, the heroine's boyfriend and the hero in the second story take a long-distance bus.

The fourth reason

The hero works in the factory of the heroine's boyfriend in the third story.

Because I want to express that everything is closely connected,

this is

Our own business.

three

The details, culture and religion in the film are very rich and interesting. The loss and destination of the soul in the Millennium development

Do you want to show it?

Jia:

This change is a painful process of China's modernization.

This process continues.

You will lose,

Will change fate, is heavy. To this end, I draw lessons from the historical novels in the film narrative. For example, "three"

Romance of China's practice of "romance" is based on the development story of reality. This process also made me understand my work. Biography of China

The play has been singing, although the audience is running out. now

But it needs to be sung from generation to generation, which is China's memory.

When I was making a movie, I

I think I'm doing a drama like this, and I may look back in a hundred years, and it's also a part of China's traditional opera.

four

Balance reality and film art?

Jia: I wasn't even there when the violence happened. I can only imagine. Definition of chivalry: fighting and hugging because of superior martial arts.

Uneven, eliminate violence and be good. I also understand these four roles as chivalrous, but I am too busy. From a human point of view, I

I think they are all chivalrous men who defend their dignity.

But I don't think I agree with the method of suppressing violence.

Even the beautified hero Lord

Just martial arts movies, because tragedy and injury are inevitable. In this movie, they are all "disabled" knights, disabled. because

Because of our cultural background,

In the long-term authoritarianism of the past,

We are too lacking in self-protection and self-dignity.

but

At the last minute, these four people in this movie,

They tried to reaffirm their dignity.

When ordinary people are in crisis,

Last moment change

Cheng Xia; Life is like a pot of boiling water, and every story boils gradually from calm.

five

How do you prepare for this role? Chivalrous women in martial arts films are an ordinary role in contemporary China.

Zhao Tao: I am very excited to read the script, because I have never played such a role.

. The director said that the most important thing is chivalrous spirit.

Quality,

So I have expressed it from the position and shape.

Especially Xiaoyu's moment from the victim to the sword,

At that moment, I put

Her sense of powerlessness and chivalry is shown.

The martial arts part also excites me.

Because I used to be a dancer,

So I can

Use your body language.

I went to practice some Tai Ji Chuan. I study Hubei dialect,

Studying every day is also a challenge. Rainy

The play lasted only three days,

From ordinary people to victims to losers,

I think her psychological changes are unpredictable, so I have made great contributions.

Dave studies the state in different periods. This helped me quickly enter Xiaoyu's world.

six

, the structure of the story?

Jia:

1

Spatial connection: Shanxi, Chongqing, Hubei and Guangdong, and the visual structure just runs through the north and south of China. Ancient China

Painters will paint rivers and mountains in China, Wan Li in one painting, and I think I want to do the same.

2

Time connection: Spring Festival, four reasons

Things revolve around the Spring Festival.

The first story is the atmosphere of going home before the Spring Festival.

The second story is during the Spring Festival.

The third story is after the festival.

Back to work in the city, the fourth one is far away. I have learned a lot about the narrative techniques of China's classical novels, which are a tight cohesive structure.

So I wrote according to one story instead of four independent stories.

The first story is a scene.

(the extreme gap between the rich and the poor,

extreme

Poverty)

; The second story is about their lives (husband and wife, brothers, family)

The remaining nine cigarettes should be divided into three parts; The third reason.

Talk about dignity in detail; The fourth story is the hidden violence everywhere. Before that, it was murder and self-destruction.

seven

What do animals mean in movies? Tiger, horse, duck and monkey? Do you want to express not only human and human violence?

Force is also any natural violence. Is the horse in the movie really whipped crazily?

Jia: I didn't feel it before until I got a dog. Human-to-human violence is dominant, and human-to-nature violence.

Force is invisible, watching trees, abusing and so on. Horses are stars. Horses have appeared in many movies, and the people who whip horses are the people who train them.

It is easy to train horses to perform, but it is difficult to train people to perform.

eight

Electronic devices in movies are widely used by migrant workers (poor people), who spend a whole month's salary to buy a mobile phone or

Tablet computer. What do you think of establishing links between China and the West?

Jia: I don't know who the audience is. The audience is the audience.

Young people really like electronic products. He may produce them.

Also used. It seems that Asian youth are more enthusiastic about electronic products than Europe and America. I remember a few years ago in my hometown of China,

Many internet cafes,

But Paris is rare. For young people, economic distribution may be unfair,

But in terms of information dissemination, they tried to take

Fair enough.

I understand the love of young people in China for electronic products and the Internet.

This kind of equality can be achieved.

There is life behind it.

Have a sense of crisis,

In the past 30 years, China society has undergone numerous changes.

People are always worried about not knowing the ever-changing information.

Will be eliminated by change.

No internet access for three days,

No cell phone for a few days,

Will probably be forgotten by their own living environment.

So we saw the grip in the street.

Young people with mobile phones respond quickly, whether they are working or friends.

nine

Why do you want to make such a film? Others may succumb to commercial pressure or lack the courage to make such a film.

Jia: As a director, I present their fate, but I don't approve of using violence to solve problems. This is not society.

Progress,

It's imprisonment.

But I insist, as a person, we must keep the spirit of resistance.

It also includes resisting the constraints imposed by enterprises.

Ideological constraints on us.

Movies are my way of resisting,

I am grateful for this movie, which saved me from having to pick up a gun.

take up

A camera will do.

10

Do you try to establish a connection between this era and the violent era in history, and do you suggest how to solve it?

Really?

Jia:

Movies can't directly solve social problems,

But it can help us understand what is happening.

If we want to solve

To solve social and human problems, we need to know current events.
