On October 11, the movie "Asking the Mountain" starring Li Jiaxi as the heroine was shortlisted for the "Starting from Shanxi" section of the 7th Pingyao International Film Festival. Li Jiaxi attended the opening red carpet in a black dress. Previously, Li Jiaxi's works as a director have been shortlisted for the exhibition many times. Her multiple identities as director, actor, and screenwriter have allowed her to constantly make new attempts and go further and further on the road to film.
In October 2017, Li Jiaxi made his first appearance at the Pingyao International Film Festival with his directorial debut "Mountains Have No Edges, Heaven and Earth Come Together", and the seeds of a deep relationship with the exhibition were sown. In the process of constantly trying to break through myself, works with different themes but equally deeply rooted in the hearts of the people appeared here with "Reluctant" and "Happy They".
Perhaps it is because of his unimaginable love for movies. Whether he is a director or screenwriter, or he personally performs roles in movies, Li Jiaxi can always bring new surprises to everyone and convey the emotions he wants to express most directly. audience.
Participating in the filming of the movie "Ask the Mountain" as an actor this time is another new attempt for Li Jiaxi. The control of the new storyline and the integration with the director and other actors are all a new attempt for Li Jiaxi. From the director or screenwriter's God's perspective of the entire story to the actor's perspective of the actor, Li Jiaxi's understanding of the story is a new one. The character has a deeper understanding.
The story of the film takes place in Yuhu Village. Every household has its own horse. The villagers make a living by leading horses to take tourists to Yuhu for sightseeing. Hao believed in an ancient legend in the village that there was a piece of sapphire as big as a rice bag somewhere in the village, so he searched for it in the mountains near the village every day. Hao's wife thought that Hao was not doing his job properly. Until Hao discovered the legendary sapphire, his wife stood with him, but this sapphire was not that sapphire, and the story unfolded.
This is the first Chinese film produced by Korean director Kim Ki-duk. The film "Ask the Mountain" (formerly known as "Qingyu") directed by Chinese director Xu Lei, starring actors Li Jiaxi and Shi Qingfeng, and produced by Yang Jin and He Feng, was unveiled at the 7th Pingyao International Film Festival. On the surface, this film is a story similar to a "treasure hunt", but in fact it has a certain realistic meaning. Among them, the female lead in the film who speaks a local Lijiang dialect is none other than Li Jiaxi.
Li Jiaxi has her own understanding of this new role. Different from her grand black dress look today, in the film she is a girl who speaks the local Lijiang dialect, has tanned skin and is very down-to-earth. In order to film this film and better interpret the character, Li Jiaxi did not wash her hair for a month, and wore old clothes borrowed from local people by the crew because she wanted to restore the character to the greatest extent possible and be a Lijiang native. For this reason, I even sold milk for a week in Yuhu Village, truly integrating into local life and understanding the character with my heart. When attending important occasions, she is the elegant and dignified director and actor Li Jiaxi. In life, she is the casual and free girl Li Jiaxi, but in the film's story, she can be anyone. As you can see, the huge contrast between the role played by Li Jiaxi in this film and himself proves Li Jiaxi's strong character creation.
Since Li Jiaxi came into contact with the film industry, she has always maintained high production and high standards. As a non-scientific person, she has brought one impressive work after another to the audience with her love and persistence, whether it is As a director, screenwriter, or actor, she has tried her best to achieve the ultimate. From the very beginning of "Mountains Without Edges, Heaven and Earth Harmony", I served as director, screenwriter, starring, and even post-editer. Later, I had a mature team to create more high-quality works, and now I have separated myself from the work I created. The world interprets stories written by others, and Li Jiaxi becomes more and more aware of how to make stories touch the hearts of the audience.
Love will never cool down. It is a very happy thing to find something you like to do. What is rare is that Li Jiaxi has persisted on this road that is not that easy.Competition in the film market has become increasingly fierce, but Li Jiaxi has never stopped expressing, using movies to make friends with the audience through the screen, and using love to directly touch the soul and resonate with the world.
Love is a powerful internal driving force. Whether he is a director or an actor, Li Jiaxi can always bring you new surprises. He is beautiful and productive. He can really be called "Shanxi Flower". Let's go to the movie "Li Jiaxi" for the surprise he brought this time. Found in "Ask the Mountain".
