Following " Me and My Homeland " and "My Hometown and Me", Ge You and director Ning Hao collaborated for the third time to continue telling the story of Zhang Beijing. The movie " hit Good Guys " was released on October 10 Released on January 1st. The film is produced by Ning Hao and directed by Ning Hao and Xu Lei. Ning Hao revealed that the idea of filming "Breaking Good Guys" was conceived after "My Hometown and Me", and the role of Zhang Beijing was tailor-made for Ge You. "Teacher Ge is a representative figure of Beijing style comedy," Ning Hao revealed. I really like Teacher Ge You's performance. In my opinion, his performance is a god-level performance. I really want to cooperate with such an excellent artist, so the first time I filmed "My Motherland and Me", I tailored it for him. He created a character like Zhang Beijing."
Ge You naturally possesses a particularly simple and lovely temperament.
Zhang Beijing's "Story Universe" originated from the "Hello Beijing" section of the 2019 National Day movie "My Motherland and Me". , the story tells the story of Beijing's grand hosting of the Summer Olympics. "Brother" Zhang Beijing experienced some inner struggle and finally decided to "give up" his ticket to the opening ceremony to fulfill others' precious dreams. Then in the "Beijing Good Guys" section of "My Hometown and Me" in the 2020 National Day episode, Zhang Beijing "made a comeback", showing the spiritual pursuit and style of the times of "Brother" in a new era, winning unanimous praise from the audience. At that time, an audience commented: "Ning HaoZhang Beijing, through the interpretation of Uncle Ge, is full of the mark of the times and human touch."
Ning Hao believes that the main reason why these two short films are loved by the audience is Ge You. "Film creation cannot be done in isolation. You must consider your collaborators and your role. Teacher Ge You is particularly charming, cute and excellent. He can always show his kind nature in a relaxed and pleasant way. I try my best to To bring out those fun, relaxed and kind qualities in him."
Ning Hao said that he was very happy to work with Ge You, "We all felt that we found something very interesting in Teacher Ge. "
Ning Hao has always been fond of telling stories about little people. Talking about the reason, he said: "Little people are familiar to me. Everyone has his own joys, sorrows and joys, and we are actually all little people. "
The collision between "Uncle Beijing" and the Internet reflects Beijing's "tolerance"
Ning Hao revealed that after "My Hometown and Me", he began to conceive of making Zhang Beijing's story into a feature film. For "The Popular Good Man" "Different from previous works, Ning Hao said: ""The Hottest Good Guy" is a story that is close to our skin. I hope to tell a life comedy quietly like in life, so this way is a bit It’s not the same.”
“Breaking Good Guys” tells the story of Zhang Beijing, a Beijing uncle played by Ge You, who, with the help of two friends around him, transformed into an “Internet celebrity” who helps netizens everywhere. At the same time, he secretly competes with his stepfather Lao Wen, played by Jia Bing , over who should speak on stage at his son's wedding. Why does
tell the story of the collision between "Uncle Beijing" and the Internet? Ning Hao said that Zhang Beijing is the image of the uncle around us that we are particularly familiar with. "We want to shoot the little stories around us, our own stories. The Internet has become a very close material in our lives. It is no longer strange. We now every day Almost everyone lives on the Internet. "
In the film, Zhang Beijing also wears a cowboy hat, echoing the English title of the film "Hutong Cowboy". Ning Hao explained that when Zhang Beijing wears a cowboy hat, he will know how to do it. He feels like a 'character', "So his rights protection is like a cowboy's chivalry. In fact, our traditional culture also has cowboy culture, which is like a knight. So, I think Zhang Beijing actually hopes to become such a person." A cowboy who can do justice."
Ning Hao believes that the collision between "Beijing Uncle" and the Internet also reflects Beijing's tolerance. "This is a characteristic of Beijing. It is integrated and can be put together through the ages."
Regarding the current Internet ecological environment, Ning Hao believes that in any change, there must be some discomfort. "The conflict and contradiction between the old and new methods is the most interesting part of the drama. If we talk about the great changes that have taken place in mankind in the past 20 years, I think the Internet is one of them. "
Ning Hao himself was so noisy by frogs that he couldn't sleep.
"Breaking Good Guys" brings together actors such as Ge You, Li Xueqin, Yang Haoyu, Sang Ping, Liu Mintao, Wu Lei, Jia Bing and other actors. They are friendly and The humorous performance outlines a group portrait full of joy and life. Ning Hao said with a smile that the actors had many improvisational performances, and everyone got inspiration when they acted, "It's like Teacher Ge and Lingzi repairing cars." In that scene, he got out from under the car. He was very cute and had just the right sense of proportion. "
There is also a scene where Ge You, Yang Haoyu and Sang Ping negotiate with the racecourse manager, pretending to be "big brother". Ning Hao said: "I looked at the monitor and saw how energetic Uncle Ge was. He leaned over and took out a "Ge You lies down", pretending to be very calm. Li Kuiyong, played by Sang Ping, suddenly showed off and said "Iron Fist Yong". I think his reaction was very fast and accurate. "Why did
add two helpers to Zhang Beijing to form a "rights protection trio"? Ning Hao said: "Because one of the specialties of Beijing-style comedy is lines, and everyone wants to chat, so there must be two people to cooperate with him, and I think the trio also fits the Hutong lifestyle. "
Jia Bing plays the role of stepfather in the film. Ning Hao commented that he is a natural comedian, "His first scene was laughing on the sofa. Originally we thought of getting used to it first and giving it a try, but his smile turned out to be too magical. , made us all want to laugh. "
In the film, Jia Bing complained that he couldn't sleep because of the noise from frogs. Ning Hao revealed that this was his own experience, "There was a time when there were so many frogs when it rained, and I couldn't sleep because of the frogs' chirping. "
Li Xueqin plays the role of single mother Xiaoqin, who is taking her children in Beijing. Ning Hao praised Li Xueqin as a very smart and particularly agile creator, "I can only define it this way, she has various creative abilities. . "There was a scene in the film where she had to suffer miserably. Ning Hao thought Li Xueqin handled it very interestingly, "She said to the director, it was acting anyway, can I do a good job? I said of course, and she just acted, her hands shaking. "
"Breaking Good Guys" is directed by Ning Hao and Xu Lei. Ning Hao believes that director Xu Lei is a very creative, stylish director and very sensitive.
"Blockbuster Good Guys" is a rich film about Beijing.
Ning Hao said that he has always liked Beijing-style comedy. “This form of comedy integrates the unique cultural characteristics of Beijing people. Beijing is a city with very developed language and culture, which provides rich soil for Beijing-style comedy. "
Ning Hao hopes to capture the richness of Beijing through the lens. He said that the shooting mainly focused on two areas, "One area is at the foot of the Drum Tower. The Drum Tower is a place that I personally have a lot of affection for. I started reading , I often sit around the Drum Tower, and the Drum Tower has such a long history. I feel like it has traveled through time, sheltering and nurturing generations of people. "
Another thing was discovered by the film's screenwriter Wang Ang. Ning Hao said: "He is an old Beijinger who loves Beijing and shoots Beijing when he has nothing to do. One day he was looking through his phone for me, and I saw a place that I thought was particularly beautiful. It had both traditional roofs and the outline of modern buildings in the distance. The two complemented each other, and there were several big trees standing next to them, which added to the scene. I was so impressed by the liveliness that I finally decided to choose that location, a scene that perfectly captured the richness we were after. ”
