Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian are just fictions written by literati.
Different versions of Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian naturally have different understandings, but being able to stand out from many versions and surpass many similar works is enough to explain the problem in itself.
Li Yi also likes this movie very much. To be honest, even if he has the original version as a reference, he still has no confidence that he can reproduce this movie.
Of course, it’s not about technique, but about sense!
Many times, some things are about feeling.
Brother and Miss Wang are both unique beings of an era.
There are many works and many unforgettable characters in Mr. Rong's life, but the name "brother" was named by Nie Xiaoqian in "A Chinese Ghost Story". This is evident!
After listening to Li Yi's words, everyone couldn't help but fell silent.
"Huh!" Chen Wen exhaled after a long while.
"As you said, I can't wait to see this movie. However, I really can't think of anyone suitable for such Nie Xiaoqian and Ning Caichen. Your request is too exaggerated. Is there really anyone who can do it?" Chen Wen couldn't help but sigh. He has always been a very casual person and is considered a big shot in the entertainment industry. People he knows There are definitely enough, but even for a while he couldn't think of any actor who could perform the scene Li Yi mentioned.
"Nie Xiaoqian, I don't know if there is anyone who can play that kind of charming and charming actress with a sad smile. However, I do have a candidate for the role of Ning Caichen." Suddenly Chen Weijie raised his head and said.
Others didn't think it was anything, but Li Yi looked at Chen Weijie in shock.
In fact, for Li Yi, in his opinion, it may not be easy to find a "forever Nie Xiaoqian", but at least, the options, or the chances, are slightly greater, but if you want to find a gentle Nie Xiaoqian, The honest and honest Ning Caichen came, but faced many difficulties.
Of course, it is also possible that the original version of Ning Caichen brought too many feelings to Li Yi, or that after learning about the life of "brother", he naturally put on the filter. Therefore, subconsciously, he felt that the biggest factor of this movie was The problem should be with Ning Caichen.
But others don't know, and from Li Yi's description, there is no doubt that Nie Xiaoqian is more outstanding than Ning Caichen.
"Did you mean..." At this moment, Chen Wen suddenly looked at Chen Weijie with wide eyes.
"Have you thought of it too?" Chen Weijie was not surprised that Chen Wen would think of it together with him.
"But he hasn't been around for many years, and he's not the right age, right?" Chen Wen couldn't help but frown.
"No, no, no, many people say that I am an evergreen tree, but in fact, he is the one who truly always maintains a young heart. I met him a while ago, and I feel that he has not changed at all from the past. .”
Suddenly, a figure appeared in Li Yi's mind, with a warm smile and a pair of pure and serious eyes. He blurted out: "Qin Shaoqing!"
"Have you thought of it too? Bang!" Suddenly Chen Weijie slapped his forehead and shook his head: "Yes, you should have thought of it a long time ago. After all, he hugged you when you were a child!"
"Qin Shaoqing? Tsk, tsk, after saying that, I do think he might be really suitable. Although I don't know him, I have heard a lot about him!" Chen Wen was also startled for a moment, and then sighed.
Qin Shaoqing, once the most magnificent male star in Hong Kong, is no less competitive than Chen Weijie and other great kings, and he is the most special one.
Li Yi had met Qin Shaoqing many times when he was a child, and he vaguely remembered that he always looked gentle and elegant, didn't talk much, had a warm smile on his face, and had particularly beautiful eyes.
As for Qin Shaoqing, it can be said that many people can't help but sigh when they mention him, what a pity!
Because back then, Qin Shaoqing could be said to be at his peak. He retreated bravely from the rapids, and others disappeared. It was just a talk, but he was different. He really retreated to the end. You must know that he was not even thirty at that time. .
The famous Hong Kong director Guan Yao once said of him in an interview with the media: "Perhaps because of his background, he was born with a young man's air, and he had to act like a young man and wear suitable clothes.
As long as he is looking at something, you will know that something has attracted his interest, let alone walking, sitting, and walking. He comes from a very wealthy family with a very good education background. He has grown up with a nanny since he was a child. He is a young master by nature. His temperament shines through in his bones and cannot be imitated by others wearing gold and silver.
Shaoqing is the kind of friend that everyone wants. He really loves the friends around him, but this love is not flattery. Basically, he is a person who loves talents very much. For example, his friendship with Zhao Fanghua, when Huagu debuted, he was already famous, and he began to pay attention to this girl, just because he admired her on stage, performing or singing, and later the two We got to know each other quickly and became close friends. But that kind of good thing is not just about eating and drinking, but really having the same interests, singing, movies, etc., there are many things to talk about.
What's your impression of him? First of all, he is a good person, but he is by no means a good person. Shaoqing's kindness is not flattery, and being kind to others does not mean that he will get something. He just comes from his heart, and he doesn't care what kind of gesture makes everyone think he is good. He only chooses friends with whom he can talk well.
He likes to share and interact with friends, such as reading. He will definitely tell everyone which book he likes. He will first ask for your opinion, and then ask for his. He will also tell everyone what his friends think. Be willing to listen. Moreover, he also inquires about what books people are reading and what they are doing. Even if what they are talking about may not necessarily be in his category, he is also interested in knowing. He is curious about people and things, but he doesn't have so many utilitarian ideas. When it comes to this level, he is very tired of socializing. "
Regarding Qin Shaoqing, everyone who knows him will give him a thumbs up.
The famous director Bao Jun, who has worked with him for many years, once said of him: "He is really a very special person. I worked with him at the beginning. I remember very clearly that there was a scene that was shot in the studio. , he and the heroine were completely surrounded by people. There were light bridges above, with the lighting engineer standing next to them, and next to them were photographers and photography assistants. Not to mention the actors were nervous and uncomfortable. As the assistant director at the time, I They were all terribly anxious.
At first, every time I finished shooting a scene, I would run over and wrap up the heroine Zhang Bin with a prepared extra-large towel. But after the director shouted to stop, I made the director angry by running around. The director scolded me and said, "The actors are all good, why are you doing this?" You get a towel to remind everyone that they are naked, which makes everyone embarrassed.
When I stepped aside, of course I felt aggrieved, but at that time I didn't care about my own aggrievedness and was moved by the scene in front of me. When the director called to stop again, he didn't just put the girl aside like most male actors. He still hugged her, even tighter than during filming. Among a group of men, he completely covered her with his body. she.
It's natural. We chatted and joked as if nothing happened. We also talked seriously about whether it was good or bad, summarizing the previous performance, or talking about the next scene. In short, we just talked and laughed, as if no one around us existed.
It was really a kind of delicate and silent care, not only because she was a girl, but also because a senior took care of the new actress. But in fact, Shaoqing was not much older than Zhang Bin at that time. I was very moved by his instinctive care for others. So I put aside my prejudices and took the initiative to talk to him. After a while, I realized that we were quite compatible. Later I realized that he was not proud. He was just a person in a downturn, pretending to be himself to protect his own embarrassment. "
Speaking of Qin Shaoqing, the figure in Li Yi's memory became three-dimensional.
Because Qin Shaoqing became famous very early and quickly retired, Li Yi didn't actually have much contact with him, but just a few contacts as a child left him with a deep memory of Qin Shaoqing!
His personal charm is evident!
When Chen Weijie mentioned Qin Shaoqing, he couldn't help but say: "He is really an excellent person in terms of personal cultivation. Although he has a straightforward and upright side, he also knows how to exercise self-control. From the simplest life perspective, I have never Seeing as he has gained weight, he will always be fit. Indulging himself in eating has nothing to do with him.
You also know that in the early years of our industry, we had more social events, and there would often be a party after dinner. It is easy to get drunk in this industry, but Shaoqing usually only went there for a while and then went home. Even in those days when his career was sluggish, when we drank together when he was unhappy or in a mood, he would definitely leave as soon as he was done drinking. I never saw him drunk.
Sometimes people would say it was strange that he never got drunk. He would say that being drunk would not only make him feel uncomfortable and ugly, but also embarrass other people around him, which is the worst thing. And I am a person who is often drunk. I feel that such friends are teaching me some principles. As a human being, you can indulge yourself, but you should not trouble others!
To be honest, some people say that his retirement is a loss for the entire entertainment industry, but what I want to say is, yes, and no, because in my opinion, he should not belong to the entertainment industry, even if he does something very special. good.
Because he is also an anomaly in the entertainment industry. When we worked together, except for working all night on night movies, his schedule was very regular, which is almost unique in the film industry.
None of us could do it, but he kept at it!
I often think that this is probably due to his background. His parents are in business, and his sister and brother-in-law have also expanded their careers in politics. Children from well-to-do families have received very strict and systematic training and education since childhood.
In fact, his family has never liked him as an actor. However, although he left such a family and took a path that was not recognized by his family, his good habits from childhood are still there, which makes him always Want to prove yourself, become more and more strict with yourself. He also helps newcomers and friends. Probably he has always had this mentality. The entertainment industry must strive for success, produce good movies, maintain new ideas in creation, and do something for the world to see. .”
After talking to Qin Shaoqing for a long time, Li Yi suddenly sighed and said, "But Uncle Shaoqing is really not the right age anymore, and I don't want to disturb him."
The reason why Qin Shaoqing retreated so quickly was because when he was the most popular, people became more famous and right and wrong. In addition, he was free and easy, dared to love and hate, and was extremely serious about anything once he got involved.
However, there are some things that are not accepted by the world. In fact, he himself does not pay too much attention to the various slanders and humiliations from the media.
However, he could endure it, but the person he trusted the most betrayed him, which was what finally made him feel discouraged.
So he once wanted to commit suicide, but fortunately he was discovered in time. Therefore, when he announced his retirement, although his friends in the circle felt it was a pity, they were all happy for him.
After that, he went abroad and no longer paid attention to the hustle and bustle of the entertainment industry!
This is why Li Yi said he didn't want to disturb him.
On the one hand, he is indeed not the right age. Even if Chen Weijie says that he has always maintained a young mentality, time will definitely leave its mark on him.
Moreover, since he chose to leave this complicated circle and never came back for many years, Li Yi naturally did not want to bother him anymore.
For a person like him, perhaps just like when he retired from the industry, his friends all chose to support him.
Chen Weijie nodded and fell silent.
Li Yi suddenly laughed and said: "Not talking about Uncle Qing, do you have any recommendations? In fact, there is no need to be so perfect. After all, we can't really expect to find someone who perfectly fits the role in every movie! "
Li Yi was suddenly relieved.
Since there is only one Ning Caichen in the world, and there is only one female ghost named Xiaoqian in the world, isn't his previous idea of recreating it a bit too idealistic?
Moreover, sometimes, it’s not that these two characters, or the original actors, were really so perfect, it’s just that the passage of time, the impermanence of life, and their subsequent fates have not been repeated on the screen. Such people and things will be remembered forever.
But if these must be sacrificed in order for them to be remembered forever, then the price would be too high!
To be honest, Wang Damei's Nie Xiaoqian and Brother's Ning Caichen are indeed classics, but they have a lot to do with the setting of the characters.
Because "A Chinese Ghost Story" truly demonstrates that both humans and ghosts have feelings.
It is one of the few films that truly portrays a passionate female ghost.
What's even more rare is that unlike White Snake and Xu Xian in "The Legend of White Snake", Ning Caichen and Xiaoqian are truly two-way.
Why do people prefer Ning Caichen to Xu Xian?
Because Xu Xian represents to a certain extent those rotten literati who claim to be "sincere men". Even if she always shakes the Leifeng Pagoda for you, she still finally listened to the old monk's words for fear of being swallowed whole.
Is it easier for Xu Xian to fight against Fahai's chatter, or is it easier for Ning Caichen to face Grandma Shu, a thousand-year-old monster? After all, it was Xu Xian who didn't want to believe that demons have feelings.
Therefore, it is the same love between humans and ghosts (demon), but Ning Caichen’s love is more pure and serious!
