"There is no problem with the banknotes, the key is that there is no banknotes. It is a bit difficult to communicate with you. It is my problem. I am too high-level. A person's consumption must be worthy of his status. If he packs it back, he can still eat for two days... "
Tonight (9th) evening, the first TV series "Flowers" directed by Wong Kar-wai will come to an end, and the "conspicuous package" in the drama, Mr. Wei Hongqing (played by Zheng Kai), has contributed many funny clips and Wei's famous sayings. You will also reap your own happiness.
Mr. Wei Hongqing, who has long flowing hair on his head and strokes it back with exaggerated gestures that he thinks is handsome from time to time, is known as the "Little Prince of Yellow River Road". He competes with Mr. Bao for business as soon as he appears. what business? He didn't know it himself, but the robbery was all it took. Before the business was fully concluded, this gentleman decided to treat the whole restaurant to a "Farewell My Concubine"... With Mr. Wei's arrogance, he was Many viewers joked that "foolish people have too much money".
dandy? upstart? As the plot progresses, Wei Hongqing gradually becomes unreliable and reliable, and has won the love of many audiences for his frankness and cuteness. "He is a person who has no ambition and is generous." Zheng Kai believes that a rich kid like Wei Hongqing ran all the way from Haining to Shanghai to build his own career. He dares to love and hate, is simple and straightforward, "even a bit like Ah Q." "Spiritual" personality has its own cuteness.
Zheng Kai recalled that he discussed the role of Mr. Wei with director Wong Kar-Wai. The director said that the character should be given some characteristics in the early stage to make him appear exaggerated or superficial, but it is precisely this "straight-ball" character that creates Mr. Wei is such a flesh-and-blood person. Whether it is business or relationships, he is "unabashed and unpretentious." As for Mr. Wei's final story, it went well. According to Zheng Kai, "I won't let everyone down."
The filming of "Flowers" was Zheng Kai's first collaboration with Wong Kar-wai. He still remembers the first time he met Wong Kar-wai. In the director's office in Shanghai, "Everyone was very casual, just chatting, and then auditioning with the script and lines. The audition lasted all afternoon, and the director kept giving various opinions." At that time, Zheng Kai didn't know which role he would eventually play. character, during the days of waiting, he read and tried to figure out the original novel over and over again.
However, after joining the team, he discovered that the script was actually different from the novel. Director Wong Kar-wai's creative process was also very different from the filming he had been exposed to before. Wong Kar-Wai will not give the entire story to the actors, but will add content bit by bit as the filming progresses. "When the director is filming, he may think about what kind of story there can be between Mr. Wei and Miss Wang, then Just go back and write some plots, and then go back to filming. Then when he goes back to watch the recording, he may be inspired again, and then write some new scenes..."
Many actors have talked about their own filming before. Being "tortured" by Wong Kar-Wai, Zheng Kai's experience was roughly the same: a scene may take thirty to fifty takes. He recalled that there was a scene with a "sense of atmosphere" that took the director almost a day to shoot. "I don't know why." Later, Zheng Kai guessed that what the director probably wanted was the feeling of exhaustion after thirty or fifty. , maybe the actor was emotionally full at the beginning, but as the filming progresses, the actor's mood and physical fitness will change. What the director wants is what will happen after the change.
"Flowers" took six years to prepare and three years to shoot. During this process, the actors came to the set, left the set, and then got together again for filming needs, and so on.
Zheng Kai told the Red Star News reporter that in order to film "Flowers", he let Mr. Wei stay in his body for three years - some scenes were filmed in the first year, and how to connect the scenes and pick up the right scenes in the second filming The understanding of the characters is a test. "Every actor in the play will encounter this situation more or less: he will be a little unfamiliar with the previous scene, then we may look at the previous editing to find out how he felt at that time. ."
Many actors who participated in the performance of "Flowers" said in interviews that they had participated in a "Flowers Master Class" and that they had improved both in performance and creation.Zheng Kai said that this kind of understanding "can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words": "I think it is a shot in the arm. This drama has raised the production level of the entire industry. We will use it in other movies in the future." Hold yourself to higher standards."
The process of filming "Flowers" also gave Zheng Kai new thinking about the film and television industry. He believes that no matter actors, screenwriters or directors, they should create more flesh-and-blood, vivid characters. ""Flowers" is a The best example proves that audiences love to watch such dramas and characters. Taking this as a goal and direction for my efforts will be a plan for my future."
