In fact, Zhang Yuanjun disagreed with many of the designs of the crew of "The Condor".
For example, Yang Guo's beggar-style make-up, bloated and sloppy clothes, and his disheveled hair make Zhang Yuanjun look completely incompatible with the handsome and unrestrained look of "Yang Guo was mistaken for life at first sight".
Fortunately, Zhang Jizhong only asked him to exercise and not to tan.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be much better-looking than Huang Xiaoming.
So in fact, what the audience of the original version said has a certain truth to it. Even if it were Bai Gulai, Zhang Jizhong's makeup wouldn't be able to hold up.
In fact, Zhang Yuanjun and Yu Min had complained about the makeup issue, saying that Zhang Yuanjun would look better if he tied his hair up without changing his clothes or wearing his hair down.
But this suggestion was rejected by Zhang Jizhong.
Zhang Yuanjun's lack of tanning was already the biggest concession he had made to Yang Guo's makeup. Letting Yang Guo tie his hair again was not in line with the heroic style he understood.
Zhang Yuanjun is still a newcomer. Although he is the protagonist, he does not have the confidence to challenge Yu Min and Zhang Jizhong to change his style.
Despite being dissatisfied, Zhang Yuanjun still acted like a beggar until now.
But compared to the makeup, there is another setting on Yang Guo that Zhang Yuanjun cannot accept.
Perhaps it was to show the naughty and ignorant nature of the young Yang Guo. Yang Guo had many lines that he needed to shout out. Even when Yang Guo reached middle age, he still had many shouting scenes.
Many of the roaring scenes are in the original work, but blindly following the original work only retains its form but not its spirit.
Especially Yang Long's sixteen-year appointment, Yang Guo's words "I'm so happy" when he saw Xiao Longnu, Zhang Yuanjun read it over and over again, and also repeated it with Liu Yifei over and over again. It was really awkward for him to pronounce this sentence!
He knew that this sentence existed in the novel, but he felt that it could be omitted in the film and television version.
All previous versions of "The Condor" did not say this sentence, but Zhang Jizhong planned to film this sentence in order to show that he was "loyal to the original work".
He communicated with Yu Min in advance for this highlight scene, and Yu Min told him how he would design the shots and what the movements of Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu would be.
Zhang Yuanjun said he couldn't understand.
He raised his doubts about that line and his confusion about Yu Min’s camera design and action design.
Why did Yang Guo pull Xiao Longnu around?
Just to show the joy of the two people's reunion?
Why did Yang Guo say so crazily, "I'm so happy", then do some somersaults and then plunge into the water, and then come out of the water, Yang Guo performed a full martial arts exercise, running and jumping in the sky and on the ground?
Just to put a few explosive points and blow them up to create a scene?
The 1995 version of Yang Long's reunion was staged according to the cry of joy, and both Louis Koo and Li Ruotong cried.
Zhang Yuanjun understood that Zhang Jizhong's crew designed this to show Yang Guo's extreme joy after meeting Xiao Longnu again, but this kind of scene is fine in the book, but if it is filmed, the audience will think that Yang Guo is an annoying lunatic.
Regarding the line issue, Yu Min gave Zhang Yuanjun the phone number of the crew's literary consultant and asked him to consult Professor Chen Mo.
Regarding the design of this reunion scene, he said that he would reconsider it.
This scene is very important. Now that the actor has raised objections, he has to consider Zhang Yuanjun's opinion.
Zhang Yuanjun called Professor Chen Mo and asked him his questions.
Chen Mo is a senior expert in the study of martial arts culture and an authority in the field of film history.
Chen Mo cited classics and scriptures to explain Zhang Yuanjun's doubts from many aspects such as linguistics and film and television expressions.
Even if Zhang Yuanjun were to live another life, he would still be no match for professional professors in terms of words. He couldn't defeat Professor Chen at all, and he thought what he said made sense.
Zhang Yuanjun also agrees with the view that "it is normal to speak to the extreme". When people are in the most intense emotions, they can't say any profound truths or beautiful words, and they will express it bluntly, such as "I'm X Nima!" "I I'll kill you" are the most straightforward cruel words.
But his question was: "Professor Chen, in order to show Yang Guo's joy at meeting Xiao Longnu again, do we really need to have Yang Guo yell like this, I'm so happy?"
"It's okay for Yang Guo to show his happiness and even say, 'Long'er, I'm really happy to see you.' Do you really need to shout like this?"
Professor Chen Mo then gave him a psychological analysis of Yang Guo's mood at this time.
Zhang Yuanjun analyzes characters from the perspective of an actor, which is really different from scholars analyzing characters from the perspective of literary psychology.
Zhang Yuanjun also gained knowledge, but the communication between the two on character analysis failed to convince the other. The more they talked, the more irrelevant they became.
The two of them had the same psychological understanding of the characters, and Yang Guo was happy and joyful at this time.
The difference lies in the film and television expression, whether it is really necessary to film such crazy emotions.
On this point, neither of them could convince the other.
After communicating for the whole lunch time, neither of them could convince the other. Zhang Yuanjun hung up the phone and prepared to eat.
"It's cold, let's eat this." Liu Yifei took two packs of instant noodles, knowing that Zhang Yuanjun wouldn't be full from one pack.
Zhang Yuanjun looked at the cold food in front of him and exclaimed: "What a pity, my dad will see this and scold me for wasting food."
"You are asking for the scolding." Liu Yifei even prepared a big bowl of instant noodles. "You don't eat when you are eating, and you have to argue with the professor on the phone, but no one said anything. You can make it yourself." , If my mother hadn’t asked me to give you noodles, I wouldn’t have served you.”
Mother Liu is a very gentle and considerate person, and she gets along very well with the young people on the set.
Zhang Yuanjun put the noodles in a bowl, mixed the condiments, and told Liu Yifei: "Bring me the hot water bottle."
"You don't have any hands, it's right over there."
"I've been arguing with the professor for an hour. I'm tired. Please give me some." Zhang Yuanjun begged.
Liu Yifei stood up, took the thermos bottle, and poured water into Zhang Yuanjun's bowl.
"Okay, okay, that's enough." Zhang Yuanjun put the lid on the noodle bowl and took his water cup, "Here, pour some more."
"You kicked your nose and hurt your face." Liu Yifei smiled and filled Zhang Yuanjun's cup with water.
After taking two sips of hot water, Zhang Yuanjun felt much better in his stomach. He then said, "I actually wanted to hang up the phone a long time ago, but Professor Chen is so good at chatting. He was just like teaching students, and he even asked me if I had seen anything. What book? Which book contains similar records and similar statements? He asked me to read it and said he would take a test on me next time he came to the set."
"It's time to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf in the hands of real experts." Liu Yifei mocked mercilessly.
"I'm not pretending. I originally wanted to talk to him about the lines, but I didn't know he was so good at talking. I really can't keep up with the amount of money in my stomach."
After chatting for a while, the noodles were ready. Zhang Yuanjun opened the bowl and started cooking. He didn't waste the cold leftovers, and just ate them all with the hot instant noodles.
"Instant noodles are something like this," Zhang Yuanjun said after finishing his meal. "If you don't eat it for a while, you still think that after eating it, you will think it is junk food."
"Don't eat any more if you think my noodles are junk food. Wash the bowl for me."
Is this also recruiting her?
