Global Movie Emperor

"Dang~dangdangdang~dang!"

The familiar dragon logo appeared on the screen. Like other film critics, Lu Bo took out his notebook and pen and put them on his lap, looking up at the screen intently.

Until a man in old clothes squatting on a tree flashed across the screen. He had seen this man in the trailer, and Lupo knew that he was the tree.

"Occupying an area of ​​800 acres, it will bring you villa-style enjoyment and caring for people..."

There is a stereo on a dilapidated Jinbei minivan, which is constantly promoting something. This shot is meaningful in the eyes of industry insiders, otherwise a long shot from far to near would not be wasted, so Lu Bo used it in his own Three words were written on his notebook: car and horn.

When the tree climbed out of the car repair tunnel, Lu Bo couldn't help but turn his eyes to the tall, strong figure sitting in the first row. He compared the tree with the current Lu Ze, and he could not help but have some doubts. Is the role played by Lu Ze?

"Have you fixed the car?"

"Tch...let him drive."

"When you do some work, you know how to grind."

The words of the owner of the car repair shop made everyone present realize one thing. The boss seemed to be a little displeased with Shu, but also, with Shu's somewhat choked answer, no matter who was the boss, he couldn't like him.

Shu put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked out of the car repair shop. No one saw any way out until the twisted hands gently touched the car door. This small gesture piqued Lu Bo's interest.

It seems... Lu Ze did a good job, his expression, movements, and language were all very well executed, especially his arms, which revealed a lot of subtle information.

"A pair of twisted hands."

Lu Bo did not move his eyes away from the screen, blindly writing in the notebook, and heard the sound of many people writing in his ears. In order not to miss the details, it is a basic skill of a film critic to still be able to read what is written after blind writing. .

Then Shu and the driver chatted in the car. The driver didn't look down on Shu, but he still made fun of Shu. Shu himself knew what kind of person Shu was. The driver held the tree up so high, but it was just a joke. Too much teasing.

While the two were chatting, there was a group of children fighting in front of the car. Shu wanted to stop him and scolded the children in an adult tone, but the child hurt his self-esteem and said, "Who is your elder?" This put Shu in a very difficult situation. of embarrassment.

Up to this point, several very useful basic information were connected together. After going around in his mind, Lu Bo suddenly felt that this play was somewhat interesting.

First of all, the background is set in a village. The boss's reprimand, the driver's teasing, the child's slap in the face, the twisted hands, and the somewhat ruffian appearance. By reversing the positions and connecting them, you can roughly estimate the life background of the tree.

No one in the village looked down upon Shu. Judging from Shu's temperament, he did not have a higher education. The reason for not having a higher education was usually poverty. The twisted hands could tell that the tree had some physical or mental problems.

The final result is that because Shu's family is poor and physically or mentally ill, no one, including the children of the younger generation, looks down upon him, and he lives at the bottom of the village.

This is the prototype of a typical Chinese-style rural literary film. Usually films with this theme end in tragedy, which is very depressing and sadistic.

Of course, this kind of film is not uncommon. There will be several such films in a few years, both good and bad. Can "Mr. Tree" make Lupo, who has been riddled with holes in tens of thousands of films? It makes me feel depressed. It depends on Zhuang Yu's skills as a director and screenwriter.

At this moment, the only person who was close to Shu appeared, Xiaozhuang, who was riding a motorcycle. This man spoke with a Shandong accent. He was obviously an outsider, an outsider from the countryside... Lu Bo thought for a while and connected Xiaozhuang with Ruiyang Mining. He could only be an employee of this mining industry.

Mining is extremely dangerous...and those who can be friends with trees can only be people at the bottom, so this person's ending can be predicted...

This is the scary thing about an old film critic. With his experienced experience gathered from thousands of films, coupled with his quick thinking and in-depth understanding of the film, in just five minutes, he has already summarized the outline of the plot. The context was clarified.

If this was revealed in a movie theater, it would probably fool a lot of people. But this is not a movie theater. There are more than a dozen film critics present. If Lu Bo can see it, most people can probably see it too.

The scene turned, Shu was adjusting the lid of a large pot in the courtyard, and then hurriedly walked out and saw his mother burning paper money under a tree. Burning paper in broad daylight was a bit strange.

"Burn...what are you burning?"

"I dreamed about your dad and your brother last night. I don't care if I ask for money. I can burn some for them. The Erzhu family's farm has taken up all our land, and you don't want to talk about it."

Suddenly the screen went black, and Lu Bo was stunned for a moment. The scene turned too abruptly. Editing like this has seriously affected the smoothness of the plot. The level of editing... is wrong, Lu Bo understands. He turned his pen around, sighed helplessly, and then looked down.

The scene directly turned into a black sky, there was fire in the distance, and people were wandering around the fire. Shu leaned on the door, smoking and watching. Until his mother appeared, Shu did not admit what he had seen, which made Lu Bo a little bit. It’s puzzling, but the next scene instantly made Lu Bo and all the film critics present, no! Everyone is numb!

"I always dream about my dad, wearing a black coat, looking for my brother everywhere. My brother was arrested as a gangster by the police station in 1986, and my dad hung him from a tree and beat him. He missed... and my brother was arrested. Strangled.”

A soft-spoken narration, paired with the dim light of a light bulb. There are photos of an old man and a young man hanging on the wall. A mirror hangs on the wall, reflecting the expression of the tree with its back to the camera. He tilts his head. Looking around, it seemed that he was still looking at the fire through the window.

"The colors and scenery are so wonderful! He is truly a first-rate photographer."

Lu Bo knew Zhuang Yu, a photographer who had won a gold medal in an international photography competition. Needless to say, he was very capable. The dim setting, coupled with the posthumous photos, the performance of the trees and the murmuring narration, instantly highlighted the A kind of eerie dark atmosphere.

And these lines also highlight the main plot. What is certain is that Shu is mentally ill, so the next story will be exciting.

After getting tired of the empty and boring "positive energy" in special effects blockbusters, special effects movies no longer attract Lu Bo's interest. Only a truly good story can attract him, and this movie took just ten minutes to complete. arrive.

Later, Shu burned his eyes while welding. Lu Bo could guarantee that this was a turning point. Shu’s younger brother also came to the hospital to complain about Shu. The relationship between the two was very cold, but the younger brother left a thousand yuan. It seems that he still cares about this brother.

Moreover, the tree has a kind of humble self-esteem. To put it bluntly, it means good face. Lu Bo likes this very much, because face is usually the trigger of conflicts in the plot of a drama. More and more contradictions and incentives make Lu Bo feel a little bit embarrassed. Can't wait to know the subsequent plot development.

When the little nurse took off the gauze for Shu, Shu was confused for a moment and actually ate his niece's tofu. He grabbed the little nurse's hand and refused to let go. This made Lu Bo want to laugh at first, but suddenly his smile froze. On his face, he couldn't smile anymore.

Isn’t it natural for men to want women? It's just that when Shu is acting stupid, he even takes advantage of his niece, so shouldn't he also express his disgust? Why could he still laugh after seeing this scene?

After a short period of thinking, Lu Bo expressed his admiration for Zhuang Yu's talent. As a photographer, he could even write notebooks so well. Such talent directly attracted Lu Bo, who is also a young artist.

This is a drama that is contradictory. As the working people at the bottom of the society, they are still stupid. When they are motivated, they still have desires and are still eager to pursue something. Maybe other situations are not wrong. Yes, but what the tree is doing now is wrong!

But Lupo is laughing! He was mocking Shu, a representative of the lower class. So what kind of commanding heights did he stand on, and what class did he put himself in to look down at Shu?

But Zhuang Yu, in this short scene, satirized two kinds of people, the two most common people in society.

Lupo looked at the man at the head of the first row, looking at the screen with a serious expression, taking a sip from his water glass from time to time.

"Awesome."
