Chapter 89 The filming scene by the reservoir
Upon hearing what Wu Yuanchao said, several old men nearby came over curiously, wanting to see this "strange" photo.
"I don't see anything strange?" A fat, bald old man took a few glances and felt confused.
"I can't take the photo well." Another thin old man looked at it carefully for a while wearing reading glasses, and immediately expressed his opinion: "Look carefully, the color of this photo is too dim, and the composition of the photo, the river , paths and grass are all parallel and look very dull.”
After hearing what he said, someone immediately echoed:
"Yes, yes, what Director Li said makes sense. I think it's just average. No, the filming was terrible. It was a complete failure!"
Director Li was the deputy director of a certain city bureau before he retired, and was also a bureau-level cadre. Now he is one of the vice presidents of the association. His words naturally won the approval of some people.
Ming Hanwen was a little unhappy when he heard it. Even if the shooting wasn't good, he wouldn't say that, right? So he retorted: "My son-in-law said that the perspective of this photo is very unique, and it shows a kind of Platonic beauty."
"Platonic beauty?"
Director Li's tone was slightly sarcastic: "Professor Ming, I have studied Western philosophy in my spare time. Plato affirmed that beauty is a real existence, but in the existence of real beauty, the beauty of many phenomena cannot be explained clearly. ."
"But as for this photo, can you say it's beautiful? How can you say it's unclear?"
"Director Li is right!"
"Director Li, you are indeed knowledgeable. I didn't expect you to study Western philosophy. I admire you."
Director Li was slightly proud of what he heard, but when he saw that Ming Hanwen's face was not good-looking, he added, "Of course, this is just my family's opinion. Professor Ming, please don't overthink it. To communicate with each other is to speak freely."
You've already told me the truth and the truth, what else can I say?
Ming Hanwen felt a little depressed.
Wu Yuanchao said nothing.
Before he retired, he was a photojournalist for a newspaper. He had been in this profession for decades, and he naturally knew more than these amateurs.
He had already seen the uniqueness of this photo, but it didn't look good on Director Li, so he came over to smooth things over and said that although this photo wasn't very good, the other photos were pretty good.
After all, his son-in-law is still young.
Ming Hanwen returned to his accommodation at dinner time in the evening. When he talked about what happened this afternoon, Yu Dongqing didn't care, but Mingliang was a little unhappy.
"They are all amateurs. What do laymen know about photography? I feel that my brother-in-law is quite good at taking photos. Recently I saw on the Internet that "Aperture" magazine held a photography competition. Why don't you just submit your article and win some awards? Let's see. What else did they say?!
"Aperture" is headquartered in New York and was founded in 1952 by a group of photography experts and enthusiasts. It is one of the world's top photography magazines. To serve art lovers, media and photography users around the world, and to maintain a certain distance from commercialization, it is highly praised by industry insiders.
But Yu Dongqing objected.
"Meiliang, I'm just taking pictures for fun. What kind of competition are you participating in? Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Mom and Dad, let's go eat."
On the one hand, Yu Dongqing is indeed not interested in submitting articles, but on the other hand, she also knows very well,
This photo of mine is an imitation of the work taken by Andreas Gursky in the original time and space, but my shooting skills are far from comparable to others.
This matter just went away, but Mingliang remembered it in her heart.
"Hmph, if you don't let me submit, I'll do it secretly, hehe."
After spending three full days in Kulonnur, the family happily returned to Yanjing on October 5th.
Going out to play is fun, but also tiring.
Yu Dongqing decided to lie down at home for two days, while Tongtong continued to play around with her aunt. Young people are full of energy.
As a result, the next day Yu Dongqing was dragged to Shangzhuang Reservoir by Zhang Yang and others to go fishing.
Shangzhuang Reservoir is located in Shangzhuang Town, Haidian, close to the National Cuihu Wetland Park and 30 kilometers away from the city, not too far.
The weather was neither hot nor cold today, and Yu Dongqing had no intention of fishing. He sat on the horse on the shore, threw the fishing line in the water, and let the fish float around. He sat on the canvas horse with a backrest and squinted his eyes. Enjoy the autumn sunshine with Longjing tea brewing in a thermos cup next to you.
The same is true for Zhang Yang.
In fact, fishing is also a way to relax and have fun.
Unlike Du Hui and Liu Yimin who were sitting not far away like old monks, these two were the real fishermen.
We don’t need to say anything, we just sit there with our eyes squinted, it’s a kind of enjoyment.
Suddenly, there was a noise in the distance that woke everyone up. Yu Dongqing turned around and saw that a group of people had arrived and were filming a movie.
The sound was a bit loud, and Du Hui and Liu Yimin were very dissatisfied, but they didn't say anything. They just left with the fishing rod and bucket, changed to a secluded place, and started fishing again, falling into the old monk's trance.
Yu Dongqing did not walk away. He was curious to find out that it did not seem to be filming a popular ancient costume fairy palace fight, nor was it an urban white-collar workplace. Looking at the clothes the actors wore, it was a story that took place in the 1980s.
Nostalgic movie?
It seems to be a campus theme.
This time and space is similar to the original time and space. There are relatively few movies depicting campus themes in the 1980s.
Even the youth campus movies are modern, either a breakup in love, an abortion, a fight or a car accident, something bloody.
Think about when I was in high school, I had endless homework and exam papers. How could there be so many bad things?
Yu Dongqing noticed again the man who looked like a director, wearing glasses and in his thirties.
Seeing Yu Dongqing watching the movie, Zhang Yang next to him said, "Are you interested in movies? I don't know how long it has been since I went to the cinema."
"Movies are not made for middle-aged men like us. According to official data, in recent years, nearly 70% of people under the age of 30 account for the majority of the population. People born in the 1990s and 2000s It is the mainstay of the Chinese film market, and young audiences are still the main force in this market."
"have to"
Zhang Yang replied, and looked at the movie scene in the distance, and then said: "The story is about the 1980s? It's a bit new. Oh, Zhao Guomin is here too!"
Zhao Guomin?
However, it is not easy to invite him to act in a drama for an experienced actor in this time and space.
Yu Dongqing immediately discovered that Zhao Guoguo was playing the role of a teacher, wearing a white shirt with the buttons open, and a vest with a red five-star printed on it. There were a few words faintly on the five-star, but it was too far to see clearly.
It seemed that he was riding a bicycle to catch the students who sneaked in to take a shower. The weighted bicycle with 28-inch bars looked very friendly to Yu Dongqing.
Although he was in high school in the 1990s, he still rode a permanent bicycle to and from school every day.
Yu Dongqing watched this clip carefully and felt that the acting was pretty good. Both the teacher and the students acted very naturally, and the youthful feeling of campus came over her face.
"If it's staged, go and see it?" Yu Dongqing thought to herself.
