China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 579 King Kong’s Angry Mercy

"...I think the character Ye Wenjie has probably gone through several psychological processes..."

Looking at Chen Jingxing's encouraging eyes, Hao Lei said while sorting out the character route she had refined.

An excellent actor must have a sufficient understanding of the script, especially the characters.

You may not be able to fully understand all the settings in the script due to your own knowledge system and education level, but the emotional resonance is common.

This is why life is a precious asset for actors. Whether it is the vast space or an imaginary world, ancient or modern, or the future, the flesh and blood that truly fills the skeleton in film and television works will always be human emotions and desires.

An actor's rich personal life experience is a valuable asset for understanding the emotions and motivations of the character.

Most of the cast and crew of "Once Upon a Time on Earth" are the original cast members of the TV series. As new actors, they even play heavyweight roles such as the female lead. Hao Lei, a senior with an acting label, must also be the same in front of everyone.

Don't show timidity.

Ordinarily, Hao Lei is also an actor who has collaborated with many well-known directors. Even if she has not been a big hit, with so many years of experience and confidence in her own professional abilities, she usually does not have much nervousness.

After all, he and Chen Jingxing had previously served as judges for the main competition unit of the Shanghai Film Festival a year ago.

Of course, this seems crazy to normal people.

She is an amazing figure with strong perseverance and strategic vision. She can penetrate people's hearts and consolidate her authority. While she has the most desperate and darkest hatred for mankind, she also has the most profound compassion - something that normal people would not

Compassion that understands.

But even this closed heart would feel distressed and tremble when faced with the felled ancient trees in the Greater Khingan Mountains. Therefore, when she was sorting out the ancient trees, she felt like she was sorting out her father's body. This shows that she has not yet reached the stage of mourning.

To the point of death.

As you can see in the script, she is a person with both hands. She can chat with investigators, and she can also turn against and execute dissidents. This is like holding a sword with one hand and preaching with the other.

Then when she went to Hong'an, Ye Wenjie had lost all dreams and hopes for the world. The place she wanted to go to most was such an isolated peak. Here, she felt an indescribable sense of security.

Seeing Chen Jingxing, the producer, and the other leading actors sitting upright and listening with interest to her interpretation and review of the characters, Hao Lei regained the confidence of an excellent actor and kept talking while turning over the script.

With her understanding of the role.

So when she discovered the Trisolarans, she thought without any hesitation that she had found a way to save the earth.

Naturally, she would not have unrealistic and beautiful imaginations about Trisolarans.

Hao Lei looked at Chen Jingxing curiously and nodded in agreement.

No matter how much you pursue art, it is difficult to resist this attraction.

Are Chen Jingxing's movies worse than "Mulan"?

Can also appear in front of audiences in major markets around the world.

If Ye Wenjie's plan is followed, both the earth and the Trisolaran civilization will have a bright future - after paying a heavy price.

Hao Lei smiled and said modestly: "The main reason is that the script written by Director Chen has shaped the character of Ye Wenjie step by step and is very solid. For me, understanding this character is like mercury pouring down the ground, and it is hearty. It is mainly due to the script."

"

Gong Huang, who has received numerous awards and is one of the best Chinese actresses, accepted the offer of "Mulan" without any hesitation.

After this, her heart died and became closed.

Even real artists are not exempt from vulgarity, let alone actors in Vanity Fair.

"I think the tone of her mentality is relatively clear. At the beginning, she watched her most admired father being fanatically criticized by her former students, and was betrayed by her mother, and then committed suicide.

At the same time, what she wants is not to destroy mankind, nor is it simply to allow mankind to win. What she wants is to no longer let mankind continue to live in an ignoble existence in the cradle. If mankind wants to survive and progress, it must move towards the sea of ​​stars.

, the same is true for the Trisolaran civilization.

In the story I planned, Ye Wenjie and Commander Ye are the supreme beings. She single-handedly planned the future of the two major civilizations, human and Trisolaran, and saved the two civilizations by herself.

Therefore, Sister Hao, I need you to expand the pattern and bring the dimension of this character to a higher level.

Look at Chen Kun of "Interstellar". Although this year's Golden Rooster Awards have not yet started, he is already the biggest favorite for Best Actor, and has even swept some minor awards.

Therefore, the little foundation just built on the ruins immediately collapsed.

There is great potential to repeat Zhang Yi in "District 9" and Wu Yue in "Gravity" who swept thousands of troops.

Became the second Best Actor awarded by DreamWorks.

But Ye Wenjie is neither.

But then he was betrayed by someone he trusted, almost died, and was even forced to betray his father.

Chen Jingxing shook his head, not taking her modesty seriously.

There is no novel "The Three-Body Problem" in this world. It is absolutely rare to be able to analyze the characters through dialogue and actions for the first time through the script.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Chen Jingxing has not worked with many top actors. Usually his movies do not require many actors to star in. Actors are just tools for him.

Although this crazy character may not be able to win the Golden Rooster Best Actress, the importance of some roles cannot be measured by trophies. Perhaps Ye Wenjie is a classic character who will leave a big mark in film history in the future.

In addition, she was also the first person to understand the underlying laws of cosmic sociology - this will be explained in detail in the second part, but you need to know that this is very important.

Chen Jingxing closed the script, looked at Hao Lei and said, "Sister Hao, do you think Ye Wenjie is a salvation sect or an advent sect?"

In addition, most of the other leading actors have acted in previous dramas, so this is her first time exposed to this story.

Not only in the eyes of Hao Lei, but also in the eyes of other actors who have completed this script, the role of Ye Wenjie is definitely a rare female character, a rare villain, and even a rare female villain.

Moreover, this opportunity is not only a leap forward in career, but also a rare role in a lifetime for the actor personally.

Of course, the future is still difficult to control, and there are still variables, but this is normal. Who can completely control the future?

So you can understand her as a crazy version of the saint in "The Matrix" who doesn't have such a plan.

The view of the salvation sect is that the Trisolaris has higher technical strength and a higher level of civilization, so its morality will be higher. Therefore, they dream of an ideal alien utopia without human beings' ugly and bad roots to transform hopeless human beings.

Just look at the leading actors of this year's Spring Festival "Interstellar" and you will know that whether it is Hao Lei or Zhu Yilong, they will definitely face a new situation in their completely different careers.

So, Sister Hao, I need you to write down what I’m going to say next, and then incorporate it into your subsequent character building.”

"Many people say that my scripts are not only imaginative, but also very grand in structure, often involving the fate of mankind, the safety of the universe, or more profound or grand abstract propositions.

However, at Hong'an Base, she worked while being guarded and exploited. She suffered from being used and looked down upon, but this was the best place for her at that time.

Chen Jingxing nodded and shook his head.

In terms of weight, it is not much lighter than the heroine of "Gravity".

What she wants is the salvation of mankind.

Otherwise, a new traffic like Zhu Yilong has not taken any new roles since "Prelude" until now. He is waiting for the filming of "Once Upon a Time on Earth". In addition, "Prelude" has not been aired yet, which is equivalent to no works in the past two years.

After being released, why are his fans and management company still able to hold on?

Regarding Hao Lei's interpretation, Chen Jingxing nodded in agreement without hesitation and even applauded: "Sister Hao, you are the best actor I have ever seen."

However, he is not here to test actors, but to help actors understand and adapt to the role. The filming is about to begin, and he can't do a few script readings. He can't wait for the actors to learn bit by bit.

Figure out the character, and there are some things that are difficult to obtain just from the dialogue in the script.

The opportunity to integrate commercial value and character creation value is right in front of you, and the script, which is not thick, feels heavy in your hands.

Chen Jingxing couldn't help but secretly said that good actors save worry. Even if Zhu Yilong's acting skills are not bad, he is still far behind actors like Hao Lei in terms of basic skills that can be said to be talent or experience.

At this moment, she had nothing but disdain for humans.

However, money and fame still have great power in this seventh art field.

This is the process of her world being continuously destroyed, leaving ruins.

So when Chen Jingxing asked the leading actors to share their initial understanding of the characters, the experienced woman also felt a little nervous, as if she was back in drama school when the teacher asked questions and spoke.

When she met Bai Mulin, she finally had a little light in her heart. She began to rebuild her own world, and came into contact with the book "Silent Spring" for the first time, which planted the seeds of her future ideas.

After only spending an hour reading the script, he was able to clearly outline the character in stages and levels, even exceeding his expectations. This ability was definitely rare among the actors he had come into contact with.

What she wants is to transform humans!

It is the collision between the knife and the whetstone, which will either break it or take on a new life.

Just like the national master twenty years ago, when commercial influence reaches a certain level, it can penetrate the barriers of art and eliminate any interference from chains of contempt.

The above is true to a certain extent, but it is not everything about Ye Wenjie.

Chen Jingxing's movie is undoubtedly the most important work in Hao Lei's acting career.

Although she is modest in her words, she is still very confident and sure about her understanding of the script and the sorting out of the character. This character seems to her to be very full, but she just doesn't know how the science fiction master in front of her designs and writes the character.

fateful.

She is playing a very dangerous game involving the fate of two civilizations.

Just like Liang Chaowei, who is well-known in the Chinese community as the best actor at Cannes, doesn't he also rush to star in the comic book blockbusters sent by Hollywood?

Ye Wenjie's story line is one of the three main lines in the script of "Once Upon a Time on Earth". Most of the characters in the other lines have already been shaped in "Prelude", so the only character who is truly carefully crafted and solid in the script is Ye Wenjie.

this role.

You must know that scripts are different from novels. Scripts are mainly composed of dialogues, actions, and scenes. They do not describe as many psychological activities as novels.

After discovering traces of aliens in Hong'an, Lei Zhicheng tried to take it for himself.

When all this passed, because Qijiatun gave her the rare warmth, she began to rekindle her expectations for human beings. However, when faced with the refusal of the person who forced her father to death to apologize, in her mind, she had just emerged from society.

The little hope he had had evaporated in an instant, and he established an ideal that has remained unwavering since then..."

The Adventists simply want the Trisolarans to destroy humanity.

The information she possesses is as critical as the black hole data in "Interstellar". She has a hundred ways to save mankind, but she doesn't.

He even established a partnership personal studio with the support of the company.

She may have had unrealistic fantasies about the Trisolarans at first, but when she realized the sociological laws of the universe, she had already seen the truth, not only the truth of the Trisolarans, but also the truth of the universe.

He even went so far as to kill Lei Zhicheng and sacrifice his husband.

Hao Lei recalled the script: "It should be a salvation sect, right? But in the early stage, she had a tendency to self-destruct. I think she has the philosophy of a salvation sect, but in fact she also has the subconscious of an advent sect."

"This script is only the first part, and the script for the second part has not been completed yet, and I can't explain it to you now. In addition, some of my ideas cannot be directly obtained from the script.

That is, don’t regard Ye Wenjie as a pitiful villain who drifts with the crowd, is forced by the darkness of the world, and is bound by the torrent of the times.

This requires risk-taking and external intervention, and she also has the ability to bring the two into balance.

And for reasons of confidentiality, she only got the script today and only went through it briefly. She didn't have time to use a lot of practice, research and analysis to figure out the character.

If history is a long river, then Ye Wenjie is a wise man who is above the river. Not only is she not caught up in the current, but at the right time, she can completely change the direction of the river."

Under the shocked and surprised expressions of Hao Lei and other leading actors, Chen Jingxing emphasized: "Sister Hao, don't just treat her as a pitiful and hateful character who is caught up in the torrent and can't help it. You are Ye Wenjie, and you have to be like this

belief.

I'm not pitiful, and I'm not that cynical. My despair for mankind is not about total destruction or revenge against society, but out of a more sacred and compassionate compassion.

Just like the angry eyes of King Kong, it is not to burn you in revenge for oppressing me, but to save you."
