Jilin University Photography Circle Exhibition

Today, I will tell you a warm story. The names of the people in the story are Andy Lau, Ning Hao and Muyewen.

196 1 Andy Lau was born in Taihe Village, New Territories. At the age of 6, Shao Yifu founded TVB and set up Cheng Jian Studio at the foot of Diamond Mountain, and began to shoot some TV programs.

Runrun's move made Andy Lau's father Liu seize the business opportunity, so his family moved to the foot of Diamond Mountain and opened a grocery store and an ice room. The main customers are actors from Cheng Jian Film Studio.

At that time, young Andy Lau was full of curiosity about Cheng Jian's studio. He often secretly goes to see actors perform. It was from then on that Andy Lau planted a seed about actors in his heart.

When Andy Lau 17 years old, he decided to let this seed take root. He entered the wireless art training class and became the tenth student. Andy Lau officially started his acting career.

This generation of kings was born.

So how good is Andy Lau?

In Hong Kong music scene, he is the first of the "Four Kings".

In TV series, he is one of the five generals of TVB.

In the film industry, he is the best photographer. He won the Golden Elephant Best Photography Award three times and the Golden Horse Best Photography Award twice.

If Andy Lau only focused on his own development, there would be no present legend.

He practiced a kind of inheritance to make the legend more legendary.

In 2005, Andy Lau launched the "Asian Rising Star Directors" program, which was mainly used to select young directors from all over Asia and subsidize them to make films.

Andy Lau sponsored Ning Hao, who was suffering from lack of funds at that time, and Ning Hao made the movie Crazy Stone, which became famous in World War I. ..

Unlike Andy Lau who became an actor out of curiosity, Ning Hao became a director out of curiosity.

Ning Hao, 1977, from Taiyuan. His parents are employees of Taiyuan Iron and Steel Plant.

Ning Hao doesn't study hard, which gives his parents a headache.

Ning Hao went to high school and felt bored. Because he likes painting, he dropped out of high school and went to a technical secondary school called Shanxi Film School to study fine arts.

When Ning Hao was studying in this technical secondary school, there was no principal in the school, so the management was very loose and the students were very free.

What did Ning Hao do when he had enough freedom?

He is watching a movie.

At that time, the school had a cinema, and students bought tickets at half price. They can get free tickets after getting familiar with the staff in the cinema.

To kill time, Ning Hao went to the movies.

This is a problem. Ning Hao saw the charm of the film. He watches Hong Kong movies, American movies, European movies and Japanese movies crazily.

Ning Hao fell in love with the art of film.

However, before becoming a film director, he also took many detours. He once formed a band, worked as a handyman in Taiyuan Drama Company, and worked as an assembler in a bicycle factory.

Ning Hao made a fuss, and his parents were heartbroken about his life. In order to reassure parents, Ning Hao passed the adult college entrance examination and was admitted to Beijing Normal University to study program production.

When filming the homework assigned by the teacher, Ning Hao's talent as a director began to appear, and all his teachers and friends praised him for his good shooting.

Encouraged, Ning Hao was admitted to the photography department of Beiying through a junior college, and he often attended classes in the director department.

200 1 Graduated from Beijing Film Academy, and his work Thursday and Wednesday won the Best Director Award of Beijing University Student Film Festival.

After that, he filmed the literary films "Xiang" and "Green Grass". Although he won numerous awards, few people watched it.

Ning Hao wants to make a movie that everyone likes to watch, but he doesn't have enough money.

It happened that Andy Lau saw his movie "Green Grass" and liked it very much. He decided to support the young director who just started out.

In the end, Andy Lau gave Ning Hao 3 million. He doesn't interfere with Ning Hao's creation, and Ning Hao can shoot whatever he wants. So Ning Hao filmed Crazy Stone, which won 23.5 million box office at a very low cost in 2006, and Ning Hao became famous in World War I. ..

Three years later, Ning Hao became the fourth director in China to join the Billion Dollar Directors Club, followed by Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and Xiaogang Feng.

Today, Ning Hao has become one of the top directors in China with films such as The Golden Robbery, No Man's Land and Flowers.

At the 20 18 17 Chinese watch award ceremony, Ning Hao said with deep affection, "I want to thank Mr. Andy Lau. I personally participated in Mr. Andy Lau's' Asian Rising Star Director' program and got "Crazy Stone", so I was lucky enough to enter the film circle. "

Ning Hao, who became a great director, inherited Andy Lau's spirit of supporting young people. He supported another director who was curious about movies. The director's name is Mu Yewen.

Muyewen, male, 1985, from Changchun City, Jilin Province. When he was a child, like Ning Hao, his academic performance was poor, even worse than that of Ning Hao, because in junior high school and high school, he was often the last or second in his class, and even got more than 290 points in the college entrance examination. Before entering the university, he never knew what it was like to be praised by his teacher.

On such a gloomy day, only books and movies can comfort Muyewen. At that time, he read many books and movies.

Like Ning Hao, he became curious about film art after watching many movies, which made him make a very important decision. In the college entrance examination, he applied for the radio and television director major in the College of Humanities of Northeast Normal University.

When I was a freshman, Muyewen filmed a 4-minute short film arranged by the teacher. His short film showed his talent to the teacher. After the short film was shown in the class, the teacher said to the class, "Konoha Wen is very good and talented." Come on, clap! "

The applause thundered that day, which was the first time that Muyewen was praised by the teacher from elementary school to university. At that moment, Muyewen realized that being a director can bring dignity to himself.

From then on, he studied harder, but after graduating from college, he was brilliant, but he didn't have the resources to make big movies. He can only make some short films.

Fortunately, Ning Hao saw his short film and liked it very much, so Ning Hao took the initiative to find Muyewen for dinner and chat. When Ning Hao started the "Bad Monkey 72 Movie Project" on 20 16, Konoha joined the project.

So what is this "Bad Monkey 72 Movie Project"? It aims to provide new directors with resources that they can't get at all, from funds to scripts, from producers to actors, from later stage to publicity.

What many people don't know is that Ning Hao received a play called "The Road to Life" before this, and he liked it very much. He also plans to make this script into a movie himself, and he also plans to let Xu Zheng play it. However, after seeing Muyewen, Ning Hao felt that Muyewen's emotional things were very suitable for directing the play. Later, the play was renamed "Dying for Survival" and started shooting on 20 17.

20 18 "to survive" was released, and the word-of-mouth exploded, and the box office exceeded 3 billion, which affected the decision-making level to speed up the implementation of the price reduction and supply guarantee of anticancer drugs.

Muyewen became famous in World War I.

At this point, it is not difficult to see that Andy Lau helped the growing Ning Hao and Ning Hao helped the growing Muyewen. We also have reason to believe that Muyewen will support young people who love movies in the near future.

It is because of their inheritance that we have seen the beauty of the world and the unique charm of movies.
