At the premiere of "Decryption"
The film's screenwriter and director Chen Sicheng said in his speech that for this film adaptation, "I created it standing on the shoulders of giants." It took many years for the novel "Decryption" to be published and adapted into a movie. Mai Jia couldn't help but sigh when he spoke: "It seems that I am not choosing the director, but fate is choosing it. Regardless of Director Sicheng's understanding of the novel, I was surprised to see the degree of completion of the movie today. "
"Let me tell you a secret first." At the premiere, Chen Daoming, the chairman of the Chinese Film Association, who played Lao Zheng in the film, expressed himself. After more than 50 years of acting career, this is the first time I went to the theater to promote a movie. "I dedicate the running room to you." He pointed to the director Chen Sicheng beside him, which immediately caused the latter to bow. "We were not interested in this (running hall) at that time. Later, after I gradually became marginalized, I did participate less in the film commercial promotion. I am also very happy today. I saw that this formation turned out to be like this. "How many cameras are there in the audience?"
In order to portray the autistic math genius Rong Jinzhen in the film, actor Liu Haoran did not hesitate to shave his hairline, pluck his eyebrows, and lose 20 pounds to transform his former "sunshine." The image of "big boy" has been completely overturned. In this regard, Chen Sicheng gave his own interpretation, "I have always said that actors should sacrifice themselves for their roles. This time Haoran did it in order to play the good role of Jinzhen. In fact, during the filming, his image on the set was hidden a lot. Everyone said they couldn't recognize him. What moved me very much was that in order to show Rong Jinzhen's last act, Haoran barely ate for three days before filming the last scene. Sleeping is to find out the character's state."
Liu Haoran plays Rong Jinzhen
In the post-screening interactive session, director Cao Baoping said, "Teacher Mai is amazing. He constructed the concepts of passwords and dream interpretation in a novel. , this is also a fundamental prerequisite for the success of the film adaptation. Secondly, I admire director Sicheng, who can discover this subject and film it very successfully. Liu Haoran's role as Rong Jinzhen in it is eye-catching, which made me recognize this film again. An actor. After becoming the chairman of the Film Association, Mr. Chen Daoming rarely appeared on the big screen. This time we also saw his long-lost figure. "
Chen Daoming plays the role of Zheng
producer and screenwriter, and Wang Hongwei, a professor at the Beijing Film Academy. When speaking, he said, "This is a movie about passwords. Director Chen Sicheng has a recognized title in the industry. He is the person who masters the password of wealth in movies. But he did not sleep on the password of wealth. In fact, the password of wealth It is two different things from the movie code. In many cases, they run counter to each other. It is undoubtedly a huge challenge for the director to choose to make such a movie. The novel "Decryption" has been circulating in the film circle for nearly ten years, and it has been used by more than one company and more than one director. If you want to make it, everyone knows how difficult it is to adapt it into a movie.Director Sicheng found a way this time that not only allows the audience to understand the world of passwords, but also stays true to the excitement of the original work. "
Director Kang Honglei couldn't hide his excitement when he spoke, "I have watched "Tang Detective" and "Manslaughter" directed by Sicheng before. I always felt that those were just his small tests. After watching "Decryption", I really felt that he was going crazy. This is a madman leading a group of madmen, taking Mai's semi-crazy novel and making an extremely crazy movie. I hope Sicheng's movies can continue to be crazy in the future. When
director Tian Yusheng spoke, he expressed admiration for Chen Sicheng's exploration in different types of films in recent years, "Director Sicheng will not stay in any comfort zone. This time he used his extremely rich imagination and visual effects to bring the movie to life." Decryption provides another way to answer the main theme of movies and opens up more possibilities for mainstream movies. "
" For the development of Chinese commercial films in the past 20 years, there are two writers who are most worthy of gratitude, one is Teacher Mai Jia and the other is Teacher Liu Cixin. These two are the people we filmmakers should be most grateful to. "Screenwriter Zhang Ji said in his speech, "A world-class novel "Decryption" is moving forward with this movie. I felt different about this movie when I visited the cast. Firstly, there were many long shots, and secondly, Rong Jinzhen, played by Liu Haoran, I didn’t even recognize him. The script of "Decryption" should be one of the best scripts in China this year. It is very difficult to write, but the final theme of the film also manages the context of the film and elements such as family and country, suspense, espionage, and love very well. balance. I don't even think the result is important now. The release of "Decryption" is enough to tell those viewers who are worried about the future of movies that the movie is worth entering the theater. "
