Le Ying goes home on a rainy night
is the breaking point in film sound creation
Zhao Nan is known as the "sound magician" in the industry. She is not only the current Oscar judge, but also served as the director of " Above the Cliff" and " He is the voice director of many films such as "", " Kailash ", " Hypnosis Master " and many other films. In her opinion, sound has two major functions in a movie: "immersiveness" and "empathy" . In "Hot and Spicy", sound can bring delicate emotional transmission to the movie.
Le Ying, the heroine of "Hot and Spicy", chose to run away from home and start a new life after experiencing betrayal and cold eyes from her relatives and friends. She met her coach Hao Kun and got into boxing, but the two ended up unhappy during a quarrel. The isolated and helpless Le Ying did not choose to give up, but continued to train boxing with the desire of "just wanting to win once", and started a truly hot life.

He hopes to use the rhythm and color of sound to outline Le Ying's psychological and spiritual changes and growth, so that the audience and the character can realize Empathy. Reflected in the sound, the first half of the film has more elements that show the breath of life, giving people a warm summer feeling; the sound style of the second half has a documentary feel, and the sound elements are more effective and symbolic. More powerful. "Actually, we wanted to use sound to express the film's theme of reinventing ourselves."
Zhao Nan revealed that Le Ying's return home on a rainy night was the breaking point in the film's sound creation. The scene of Le Ying returning home on a rainy night follows Le Ying’s emotional collapse after suffering a blow in the studio. At this time, it was necessary to use sound to express the emotions of the character. “At first we used some very desolate wind sounds, and some air drying on the balcony. There was a clanging sound of clothing poles and hangers. Then the rolling thunder brought a storm. When Le Ying walked to the third floor of the building, a thunderbolt brought an even bigger storm. We used some sounds in the whole scene The elements created a sad atmosphere, and some very grainy sounds were used as a breakthrough to find emotions. The next morning, when a ray of sunshine shone through the window, we used the sounds of wind blowing leaves, bird calls and some representative sounds. The special atmosphere of sunshine tells everyone that Le Ying is about to start over."
At the end of the video, Le Ying finally got the chance to fight a professional boxer through a substitute, and persisted in finishing the three rounds of the game. Zhao Nan revealed that in these three rounds of competition, there were three different expressions in sound processing. Because Le Ying has never participated in a formal boxing match, the sound shaping of the first round of is based on reality. "gives the audience a real sense of pain, with real gloves hitting Le Ying's face, stomach, arms and other different parts." The purpose of making a very real sound is to tell the audience that this is a very real experience."
The second round of the boxing match was shot in one shot, and this 2-minute shot was well received by the audience. Zhao Nan discussed with director Jia Ling at that time that should adopt a bystander's perspective in the expression of sound, and should express Le Ying's joy in the music from being confused, to coming into contact with boxing, falling in love with boxing, and then realizing her inner goals. Feeling.
The third round of the boxing match returned to Le Ying's subjective feelings from the perspective of a bystander, but it was somewhat different from the reality of the first round. Sound was used to strengthen Le Ying's inner emotions.
