It wasn't until almost a third of the movie was shown that the audience finally understood that Xiao Ke, played by Fan Xiaopang, is a brain tumor patient, and He Wei, played by Li Tang, is her brother-in-law, because his brother-in-law usually cares about her. Xiao Kaitai fell in love with her brother-in-law.
Of course, the brother-in-law would never do anything unethical and would avoid his sister-in-law's love.
The little girl who was hit was found to have a tumor in her brain just like Xiao Ke. This kind of disease cannot be cured and can only be maintained by medication. The little girl's family is poor and cannot afford medical expenses. Out of sympathy, He Wei changed his insurance policy to the little girl's name, hoping to help the little girl.
Looking at it this way, He Wei is completely a good person.
But when Xiao Ke met Lin Mo, played by Bald Xu, and found a picture frame in Lin Mo's home, everything changed.
It turns out that when Xiao Ke was very young, his parents were killed, and what was lost at the same time was a white frame and a watch. Lin Mo told her that this frame was given to him by a primary school classmate named He Wei, who also gave him a watch, but the watch could no longer be found.
So Xiao Ke suspected that his brother-in-law He Wei was the murderer of his parents. In order to confirm her suspicions, she deliberately asked Lin Mo to appear in front of He Wei. Lin Mo revealed He Wei, but He Wei denied that Lin Mo was the wrong person.
Xiao Ke had no evidence. At the same time, she went to see the doctor, but the doctor told her that the medicine was taken away by her brother-in-law He Wei, so she thought that He Wei took the medicine and did not give it to her because he wanted her to die early.
Because he was running out of time, Xiao Ke was so anxious that he pretended that the bookshelf was broken again while his sister Xiao Feng, played by Jiang Qinqin, was on a business trip, knocked him unconscious and kidnapped his brother-in-law He Wei. So the first scene appeared. Xiao Ke, wearing a blue retro sportswear, looked down at her brother-in-law He Wei who fell to the ground. Then she dragged He Wei to the living room and tied him to a chair. .
After He Wei woke up, Xiao Ke repeatedly asked, did he kill his parents?
But no matter how Xiao Ke interrogated He Wei, He Wei always said that she had made a mistake, and asked her not to forget that they were a family, and also asked her not to destroy the happiness in front of her.
Although He Wei refused to let go, Xiao Ke decided to end it. She brought a dagger to kill He Wei, but He Wei struggled for a day and the rope on his hand was untied. When Xiao Ke was about to take action, he also came to fight for the dagger. During the fight, Xiao Ke fell to the ground and used the dagger he snatched to cut off the rope tied to his feet. Perhaps thinking about his pregnant wife, He Wei didn't want to kill Xiao Ke and didn't care about her life or death, so he turned to leave.
But Xiao Ke picked up the hammer on the ground and injured He Wei again. He Wei finally couldn't bear the inner entanglement and Xiao Ke hurt him externally. Then, the real He Wei appeared, and he tore off the hypocritical disguise. The strong woman fucked Xiao Ke, and at the same time, the peace he had maintained was broken.
In fact, He Wei's heart has been suffering. But he believed that as long as things were not exposed, this would be a balanced ending. Although he was suffering internally, he did a lot of things to make up for it.
But all of this was finally broken under Xiao Ke's questioning. He confronts Xiao Ke and admits that he killed her parents. The motive for the murder was revenge for not seeing Xiao Ke's parents living in a big house with a yard, wearing a watch, and living a better life than him. Including marrying Xiao Ke's sister Xiao Feng was also revenge for her being aloof and ignoring others when she was a child.
But after getting together with Xiao Feng, He Wei was influenced by Xiao Feng's kindness. His current gentleness and helpfulness are also influenced by his wife. He admits that Xiao Ke's sister has changed him.
Xiao Ke finally found the real He Wei and no longer struggled, so she could face death calmly.
At the same moment, He Wei felt that he was liberated. Over the years, he often suffered from insomnia, fearing that the murder would be exposed. He helped the sick little girl hoping to atone for his sins by doing good deeds.
When He Wei asked the little girl's father about insurance matters and drove home, Mr. Lin, who had long since wanted to live, hit him hard with his car...
The movie ends here.
When the subtitles started rolling on the big screen, there was no movement at all for about ten seconds. The main creators, including Li Tang, were inevitably anxious. It wasn't until someone started clapping, from sparse applause to full applause at the end, that everyone felt a little calmer.
The lights came on, and the host Cheng Lei came on stage. First, he spoke some formulas enthusiastically, and finally said loudly: "Let us welcome the creator of the movie "The Third Man" to the stage with the warmest applause!"
Several people filed onto the stage and made some concessions to each other, allowing director Cheng Er to take the C position in the middle. Jiang Qinqin and Fan Xiaopang were lined up on the left and right, and Li Tang and Xu Guangtou stood on both sides.
At first glance, Bald Xu and Fan Xiaopang are standing together, while Li Tang and Jiang Qinqin are standing side by side, which fits the relationship between the respective characters in the movie.
The first choice is the audience interaction session, and the first person to ask questions is a trustee arranged in advance.
This little-known actor from the Shanghai Film Theater Company, whose acting skills are pretty good, first asked the director Cheng Er: "I noticed that the door of the car driven by He Wei often couldn't be opened, but when the truth came out, , the car door suddenly opened. I would like to ask the director, is there any meaning here? "
As long as we talk about movies, Cheng Er will speak very fluently. He picked up the microphone calmly and said: "The car door that cannot be opened is used in the movie. I think it is a hint of He Wei's inner knot. When He Wei takes everything When the truth was told, the car door opened naturally. But before the truth was told, he could not open the door."
After getting started, the audience's emotions are also aroused. In addition, this movie does have too many issues that require urgent approval.
As the guy finished answering his questions, some audience members immediately raised their hands to ask questions. Cheng Lei picked a girl wearing glasses, and the on-site staff handed over the microphone.
The girl with glasses looked very excited and said: "Teacher Li Tang, I am a fan of your movies. I especially like your role as Linghu Chong and Xiao Jian in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge". In the past, you were always very chic in my mind, uh ...There is also a particularly handsome one, but after watching this movie today, I found that your impression in my mind has been completely overturned. I know that it is precisely because of this that it just shows that the character He Wei you created is successful. . I just want to ask you why you took such a role?"
Movie fans are emotional. They often regard the roles played by actors as the actors themselves. Naturally, they are not willing to accept actors playing negative or unlikable roles.
Regarding the question of this bespectacled girl with a fan mentality, Li Tang smiled and replied: "Actually, neither Linghu Chong nor Xiao Jian is me. As for why I want to take such a role, because I am an actor, and actors exist. The meaning of it is to have the courage to challenge different types of characters. When director Cheng Er found me, I particularly liked the role of He Wei. It turned out that the performance was indeed very enjoyable, and I also received honors for it."
The audience asked a variety of questions. For example, someone asked whether He Wei was really the murderer. Did you make up such a story to comfort Xiao Ke? The real murderer was actually Lin Mo, and He Wei actually killed and silenced him in the end.
There were also enthusiastic female viewers who asked Li Tang, although He Wei avoided Xiao Ke's expression of love, did he actually love Xiao Ke in his heart? The reason is that He Wei was very painful when he learned that Xiao Ke would not live long, and finally did that kind of thing to Xiao Ke.
I have to say that the audience’s brain circuit is very strange. Is it also a sign of love for a strong woman to do something?
When it was the media's turn to ask questions, the reporters' questions were obviously much more professional. For example, a reporter from Xinmin Evening News asked Cheng Er: "The story of this movie and the chronological order of the narrative are intertwined in reverse order. Disrupting the timeline of events, reversing, assembling, and collaging them, and then narrating them. Many scenes were shot twice. I would like to ask if this is your unique way of creation, or is it just to show how awesome the editing is? And what about pretending to be mysterious?"
This question is very sharp and directly questions Cheng Er's creative style. Of course, this is because Cheng Er is a newcomer in the field of directing, so such doubts are inevitable.
Cheng Er was obviously mentally prepared for this kind of questioning. He said calmly: "The first graduation short film I made was a non-linear narrative. In fact, I don't reject linear narratives. It's just that every time I write a script, I write the first When it works, it's in the middle of the story.
In fact, it is difficult to analyze specifically why I like this structure. First of all, it is an instinct. But if I must analyze it, then for me this kind of narrative has a sense of beauty. Because the time of each of us is actually linear, we can only live in linear time from beginning to end. But memory is non-linear. Regardless of memories or dreams, they actually jump around. I think this is an escape and a freedom from the linear time of life that we cannot escape.
In addition, I personally think that the advantage of non-linearity is that the audience is not only watching a story, but on this basis, they have the opportunity to think about the story. When the timeline is disrupted, the original choice and the subsequent results are directly compared to the audience. It will bring about a kind of thinking and highlight a sense of fate.
When the cause and effect are closer, they become a parallel relationship, and the sense of fate will be clearer, because non-linear narrative is a kind of refined or even structured material, not the material itself. "
I have to say that Cheng Er's words are very profound, and I don't understand them at first. Li Tang didn't know if the reporter who asked the question understood it. At least Jiang Qinqin beside him didn't understand it. He secretly asked, "Hey, what do you mean by Director Cheng's words?"
Well, although Miss Jiang graduated from Nortel with a bachelor's degree in art, her actual cultural background is actually very average.
Li Tang smiled at her and whispered: "It can be summed up in just two words."
"Which words?"
"Awesome!"
