People are running for men, and Bai Mengyan is crying at the beginning

Xiang Xiaolong, also known as “Guan Zu”, is simply a character who was tortured by his father, a policeman, and his mind was twisted. From hating his father and hating the police, he developed into a rebel who took pleasure in hunting and killing policemen.

This is clearly shown in the script.

After being insulted by his father, he immediately angrily came to the practice room with a pistol and poured all the bullets on the police doll.

And during the confrontation on the rooftop in the finale, facing his father’s accusation, his psychological defense collapsed instantly, because he suddenly realized that even though he had committed so many major crimes and killed so many police officers, he could not In his father’s eyes, he was still the useless person who had accomplished nothing.

It can be said that as long as Azu’s hatred of the police and his helplessness when facing his father are captured, the general image of this character will be basically completed.

Xiang Long believes that if he performs based on this, he will definitely be recognized by the audience and even professionals with his acting skills.

but–

That is under the premise that Xiang Long does not have ‘proficient level’ directing skills.

At this time, he had the skills of a director, and he discovered at a glance that except for these two points, the character ‘Azu’ did not actually have a perfect behavioral standard for the rest of the time.

To put it simply, apart from the label of ‘rebellion’, Azu’s other behaviors can basically only be described as doing whatever he wants.

For example, he shot and killed his injured teammate, who was so powerful in his family, instead of sending him for rescue. After killing his teammate, other teammates were actually willing to follow him and go with him. Big case.

Another example is sending bombs to Chen Guorong’s girlfriend…

How can I describe this behavior? A thief personally delivered the bomb to the police station and caused huge losses.

Then what?

The person who was arrested was Chen Guorong, played by Cheng Long.

And Azu, the instigator who was seen by many policemen and captured on surveillance cameras, could still continue to swagger to the police station to provoke, while the other policemen pretended not to see him…

These plots indeed arouse a lot of hatred for the protagonist, but they also reduce the protagonist’s ability in disguise. After all, you can’t catch such a stupid villain…

Now, what Xiang Long wants to do is to improve the behavioral logic of the middle part of ‘Azu’.

no way,

If he didn’t have directing skills, he might be indifferent, but now that he has directing skills, he can’t stand this kind of intellectual behavior.

…

Just thinking,

The other main members of the crew also came to the conference room. After socializing with each other, the main actors sat on one side and the crew members sat on the other side. The script reading officially began.

The so-called ‘script reading’ simply means that the main members of the crew gather together to read the script, perform a trial interpretation of the character’s behavior, and inform the director, screenwriter, and artist of their understanding of the character, including the needs for interpretation. .

In turn, the director, screenwriter, art, props and other crew members acknowledge that they are responsible for giving feedback to the actor, such as whether his requirements can be achieved.

All in all, script reading is something that a qualified crew must do before the official start of filming, and it can help the crew save a lot of work after the official start of production.

“Call the police!”

“ah?”

“I asked you to call the police!”

“ah?”

Xiang Long acted opposite another actor according to the content in the script.

The other characters are also patiently waiting for their roles.

Even though it was just a script reading without makeup, everyone showed no signs of slacking off and was fully immersed in their emotions.

In this way, from nine o’clock in the morning to two o’clock in the afternoon, everyone basically went through all the contents of the script.

“Okay, now everyone can speak freely and express their opinions about the characters they are about to play. Once filming officially starts, you can’t change it at will.”

Director Chen Musheng said.

Hearing this, Xiang Long and others looked at me and I looked at you, but no one had the nerve to speak first.

Cheng Long had long been accustomed to this situation and was the first to speak:

“Since everyone is embarrassed, I’m going to start by throwing some light – I think the scene in the warehouse is a bit awkward.”

Jackie Chan frowned and said:

“The script only said that I would be very anxious and defeated at that time, but I feel that just letting all my colleagues die and my future brother-in-law die would not fully show my despair – do you have any suggestions for improvement? ”

Hearing this,

Everyone frowned.

Chen Musheng said: “Isn’t this enough to show your despair? You must know that he is a brother who is your brother and sister, and there is also a brother who is your girlfriend. They are all

They all died in front of you, and they also experienced the bet and failure experience with Xiaolong and others… In this case, the despair should be enough, right? ”

“For ordinary police officers, these experiences are certainly enough for Xiang Long, but after all, I was a police inspector with a 100% crime detection rate, so these are not enough!”

Cheng Long affirmed.

“How could it not be enough?”

Chen Musheng still disagreed: “No matter how high your crime detection rate is, your emotions are no different from ordinary people.”

“Of course there is a difference!”

Cheng Long said loudly: “If my crime detection rate is 100%, my spirit will definitely be stronger than that of ordinary people, and my endurance will be stronger!”

“No, Brother Long, aren’t you being a bit strong with your words?”

Chen Musheng was a little unhappy.

“I’m just discussing the matter!”

Cheng Long refused to give in.

aside,

Seeing Cheng Long arguing with the director, Xie Tingfeng and other juniors all shrank their heads and looked at the script in their hands carefully, as if there were flowers in it.

When the big guys fight, it’s better for the little fish to stay away.

Others who were senior enough also did not interrupt.

Because this kind of thing is basically a matter of public opinion and mother-in-law’s rights, and since I have no way to help improve it, it will be useless to interrupt rashly.

Finally, screenwriter Yuan Jinlin said to Cheng Long:

“How about this? Let’s add some scenes where you and your colleagues are emotionally intimate? For example, having a party together. This way, when they die, the audience can better understand your pain.”

The easiest way to express despair is through contrast.

The warmer it is in the front, the more miserable it will be in the back.

Hearing this, Cheng Long hesitated and shook his head: “You can say yes, but in this case, the rhythm of the entire film will be slowed down, no.”

Movies are not TV series, and every minute is precious.

“this……”

Seeing that Cheng Long still disagreed, Yuan Jinlin also spread his hands, helpless.

Seeing that no one could come up with any good opinions, Cheng Long also sighed. Just as he was about to say, “How about we forget it,” he saw Xiang Long on the side slowly raise his hand:

“Brother Long, I have an immature opinion here.”
