Special feature of 1905 film network "Meng Yun, long time no see!" One of Jia Lin’s lines suddenly pulled the audience back to the New Year’s Day file six years ago. How many people’s "regrets" and memories were carried by a "Former 3"?
Now, the original team is back again, continuing to write the story of "predecessor": Meng Yun and Jia Lin finally bid farewell with dignity, and Yu Fei and Xiaodian have entered a new stage of their lives.
Since its release eight days ago, the box office of "Former 4" has exceeded 600 million, ranking second in the National Day file. At the same time, word of mouth has also created four best, and golden sentences and classic bridges have aroused heated discussion among the audience.
Since the shooting started in 2013, the "predecessor" series has gone through a full decade. The director, two leading actors, and following the story complete the maturity and transformation, and also integrate the life sentiment into the interpretation of the role.
In an exclusive interview with the 1905 film network, Yu-sheng Tian summed up the significance of the "predecessor" decade to each master.It is the record of our life stages and the emotional record of contemporary urban youth.“
Stories about the future have to be left to the future, just like the open ending of the movie. "There is no need to give the audience a result, because everyone has 10,000 possible answers to feelings, and life goes on."
0one Why is it "early marriage"
"After" Previous 3 ",for a creator, the experience was actually hollowed out."
One of the characteristics of the series "Former" is to draw materials from the life experience of the main creator, which is also the reason why Yu-sheng Tian was silent for six years after "Former 3": waiting for new life experiences to give him new creative inspiration.
This experience is "marriage".
As agreed, Yu-sheng Tian, Ryan and Han Geng all chose to form a family in the past few years and enter a new stage of their lives, which also gave them the same frequency of feelings, so there was a discussion about "marrying young". "You jumped out of Lushan Mountain, and you can know the true face of Lushan Mountain. “
02 Lin Jia with "0.01% hope"
From the supreme treasure to eating mangoes, Meng Yun and Jia Lin’s pair of "sadistic CP" has always been "difficult to reconcile" in the audience’s mind.
These classic bridges, two golden songs, Decent and Be there or be square, and the symbol of their love — — "Dolphin" also appeared repeatedly as an egg in Previous 4.
However, what the audience finally waited for was a calm and restrained farewell drama, full of Qian Fan’s relief and letting go.
When we asked Yu-sheng Tian, were we sure that two people would never get back together? His answer is: "I don’t know! Can only say that among all the characters, the only one who is ready to be single is Jia Lin.“
Many people are puzzled that Jia Lin brought her children to meet badon min, but Yu-sheng Tian thinks this is precisely the performance of her complicated mentality.
"You said that when she brought her children, was there a little flame in her heart? 99.9% she thought it might be goodbye this time.But does 0.1% want Meng Yun to show an acceptance, or the love he had before? Actually, there isBut when Meng Yun saw the embarrassment of the child at that moment, he found that 99.9% was what she had imagined, so he said goodbye resolutely. "
0three Missed "smoke"
Another detail of this breakup scene is full of stamina: when Jia Lin took out a cigarette and handed it to Meng Yun, Meng Yun waved his hand and refused, which reminds people of the way Meng Yun smoked in front of Jia Lin.
Yu-sheng Tian’s interpretation of this detail is also the epitome of Jia Lin’s state change: "She told Meng Yun that she hoped that one day you could find your own care. Jia Lin’s concern is the child. She picked up the side of her strong woman for the children and learned to smoke in the entertainment. "
This subtle "unsynchronization" also implies the dislocation of their relationship. "You smoke, I quit. They have been missing, at different stages of life, although they love each other very much, but the time of their lives is always not right."
Recalling the filming process of this scene, Yu-sheng Tian said that neither of them needs to "talk about the scene", and naturally they are in the state of the characters.Their understanding of Jia Lin and badon min is as good as mine. I said this relationship is complicated, but they said they knew it. For these two characters, they have injected souls."
0four What did Meng Yun "withdraw"?
In Ex-3, both Meng Yun and Jia Lin have withdrawn their messages to each other, which is a sign of their poor communication. This "stalk" has also been extended to "Previous 4".
"Withdrawal" in "Ex 3"
When Lin Jia sent the news of "I am married", Meng Yun’s first reaction was "withdrawn", leaving only a polite "congratulations". "What exactly did Meng Yun withdraw" also triggered a heated discussion among netizens.
When we seriously threw this question to the director, Yu-sheng Tian said half jokingly that it was definitely not "respecting the toot", but we still had to keep it mysterious.
“I know exactly what badon min withdrew, but I can’t tell you, because what everyone withdrew is different. What you think he withdrew is what he withdrew."
0five Willow is a "Leo"
"People with single beliefs are more likely to meet soul mates." In the "sequela of breaking up" with Jia Lin, Meng Yun met willow, a girl with a different personality from Jia Lin, who also attracted him.
"The lawyer Liu we designed was originally a girl with a Leo temperament, an aggressive girl who was bold and brave in pursuit." Yu-sheng Tian said, "Liu Yase’s type of actor is particularly unique, easy to remember, and fits this character very well."
Because the feelings were not answered, the picture of willow bursting into tears in the car touched many viewers.
Yu-sheng Tian also thinks that Liu Yase adds more colors to the characters. "Liu Yase brings a sense of stubbornness. She will add a little’ process’ and her own understanding to the results I give, which will enrich the characters. "
0six What does the "rabbit" at the end imply?
Willow and Meng Yun’s "friends circle farewell" is embarrassing, but the ending scene seems to have planted the seeds of hope for this relationship, and the important prop is the "rabbit".
"Rabbit" is actually the meaning of willow to Meng Yun. She is a soul friend with similar interests and a good medicine for treating the sequelae of breakup."Jade Rabbit was drugging in the Heavenly Palace, and willow also awakened Meng Yun with his enthusiasm and boldness."
At the end of this paragraph, the two people met from a distance, actually echoing the front and back seats at the Miyazaki Hayao concert. "A year later, like the concert in Miyazaki Hayao, they may start again. Because they have the same aesthetic, there will always be an intersection somewhere."
0seven Why "friendship days"?
"It’s always fun to forget the wrong and remember the past. It’s always fun to share the hard times together." Friendship days, a classic Cantonese golden melody, is used in the theme of love, and Yu-sheng Tian’s choice is bold.
He interprets it this way: "After a long time of affection, the joy at first sight and the passion at first sight will disappear with time. At this time, it is necessary to rely on the word" love ".It is not enough to have feelings without righteousness. So I simply turned the word responsibility into loyalty and told it to men, not only to my brothers,Have you been loyal to your wife?"
Yu-sheng Tian still remembers that the scene where Ryan whistled to save a little bit was "one pass" and the audience was "crying into pieces". "The whole community was very quiet in the middle of the night, and all that loneliness and guilt came out. I was really moved by Brother Kai, and I still cried after the card was stuck, and I couldn’t help it."
0eight What does the 10 years of "predecessor" mean?
Whether it is Ryan, Mengxue Zeng, Han Geng, and Zi Wang, these old friends always have an unspeakable tacit understanding when they get together. Yu-sheng Tian described it this way: "When reading the script around, the staff listened, and this is them! Reading the script for the first time is like everyone has already performed it. "
Four films in ten years, the "predecessor" series is like a life album. "It records us from our twenties to our thirties and now we are almost forty.It records that we have changed from a boy to a man, from knowing only love to knowing loneliness. This kind of company is the happiest."
With the phenomenal box office performance of Previous 3, Yu-sheng Tian said that what he felt was not pressure, but more encouragement. "Tens of millions of people watched the play, and the scenes and songs in it have been circulated for many years, which shows that everyone still resonates, and encouraged me to make a creative method like this, sum up from my life and find inspiration."
This resonance from the audience is what Yu-sheng Tian values most. "I’m glad to see the comment: I don’t know what I like at first, and then I listen to it. This is the greatest praise for a creator. "
As for the story of the future, Yu-sheng Tian said with a smile: "I can’t write anything I haven’t experienced yet if I write it later." Just like the open ending of a movie, life goes on, so it is enough to cherish the resonance of the moment.
