Chapter 145: The touching feeling brought by”Hachiko”!
【Pre-orders for Lin Qiu’s new film have started! Grab your tickets, sisters!】
【I just bought it. At the premiere, Teacher Lin Qiu and Chen Daohua, I will support it no matter what!】
【Wow wow wow wow! I was chosen as the lucky audience member at the premiere!】
【Really? Sister!】
……
《As soon as the pre-sale information for”The Story of Hachiko” was released, it immediately became the focus of the entire Xiazhou film industry and was given high expectations!
《”Love Letter”,”The Furnace” and”The God of Medicine” are three consecutive masterpieces
Chen Daohua joined the cast of this film again, and the predicted box office once exceeded 5 billion. This is the”Lin Qiu Effect””
Almost no industry insiders or viewers will question this movie
The reason is very simple. If the script of this movie is not good, can Mr. Chen Daohua and Chen join?
Chen Daohua is in a semi-retired state, and this time he will definitely not bring a bad movie to ruin his future!
The director and starring actors have a huge reputation���The pre-sales exceeded 300 million in a short period of time!
Such pre-sale results can only be described as incredible!
But Lin Qiu is really hard to say about the box office of this movie.
For the previous few films, Lin Qiu had made predictions about the box office, and the final results were relatively in line with expectations.
For example, before the movie”The God of Medicine” was released, Lin Qiu knew that it would cost at least 5 billion
This”Hachi” is really hard to say
Two billion is possible, and five billion is not surprising either.
Mainly because the subject matter is a literary film and it is difficult to create a local box office miracle.
But Lin Qiu’s current reputation and popularity are so explosive, especially among young movie fans.
The box office of a movie is complexly related to the schedule, lineup, publicity, reputation, and subject matter.
It is not a film with a quality of one billion in the previous life. It is worth one billion in any time period.
……
《”Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone” has swept the youth groups of Xiazhou in a short period of time
Even during the summer vacation, this imaginative story is still rapidly fermenting in the world of student parties
In ten days, the total sales exceeded ten million, making him another best-selling author in Xiazhou
Such achievements not only make the entire online literary circle proud, but also shock the physical book circle!
In Xiazhou, only with the popularity accumulated by the old thief can”Harry Potter” rise so quickly.
Overseas, veteran authors don’t have this kind of reader base, and are completely equivalent to a new author.
The rise of a new author is destined not to be so rapid, let alone a Xiazhou author.
During this period, except for the fixed 2 hours of coding work every day, Lin Qiu was quite free the rest of the time, which was considered a good vacation for himself.
With such hot weather in Xiazhou, traveling in Xiazhou is not practical
There is still some work to be done in the animation department. The finishing work of”Unknown Flower Name” has already been completed. Lin Qiu still attaches great importance to this animation that has opened up the Xiazhou market.
This is a brand new market
Since August, the release date of”Hachiko” is getting closer and closer
For the premiere, Lin Qiu still invited some familiar friends from the industry, such as Jiang Han, Liya, Chen You, Ye Zhiyuan, Tang Anning, Xu Xin and others to support the show.
In the blink of an eye, Lin Qiu’s much-anticipated new film is finally here!
……
August 10th
The hot summer still cannot dry up the enthusiasm of movie fans, outside Jiuzhou International Cinema
Many fans of Lin Qiu’s movie had been waiting outside the theater for a long time. When they saw Lin Qiu coming, they shouted:
“Lin Qiu!”
“Lin Qiu! I love you!”
“Wow! Autumn leaves! Autumn leaves come together!”
Compared to a year ago, Lin Qiu is extremely popular now.
Not only in the film industry, but also in the entertainment industry.
“Big star now”
Ye Zhiyuan and Lin Qiu came from the company together. Seeing such a scene, he smiled and teased
After a brief exchange with fans, Lin Qiu walked into the cinema
In the theater, many media reporters came here first. When they saw Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan arriving, they all greeted them.
“Director Lin, we all know that your last film”The God of Medicine” achieved a box office of more than 6 billion. Do you think this new film can surpass”The God of Medicine”?”
Lin Qiu smiled and said,”The types are different.”
“This”Hachi” is a literary film. As for the box office and reputation, it is left to the audience.”
“I don’t have much pursuit of box office. I would be satisfied with two billion.”
Lin Qiu’s words immediately made some media focus on the key points.
Immediately he wrote in his notebook:
【Lin Qiu: I have no interest in box office!】
【Lin Qiu: Set a small goal, two billion!】
【Lin Qiu: Two billion is okay!】
……
Guests at the premiere arrived one after another. Jiang Han gave up a lot of work and rushed back to Yanjing to support Lin Qiu!
Tang Anning, Xu Xin, Chen You, Liya and other well-known celebrities in the industry all sat in the middle and chatted happily with each other.
Little did he realize that in the next two or three hours, there would be a wave of tear gas even more terrifying than”The Crucible”!
《”The Melting Pot” is a movie that is more about heartbreak and anger!
But this”Hachiko” just makes me cry!
Just as movie fans across Xiazhou are looking forward to the release of”Hachi”, the premiere begins first
Wow——
The lights in the theater gradually went out, and pictures began to appear on the big screen
A piece of relaxing and melodious orchestral music sounded, immediately making the entire theater quiet.
Ye Zhiyuan looked at the screen intently, looking forward to it more than the release of his own movie!
When editing”Hachi Gong”, Ye Zhiyuan was filming”White Night Journey” and had not watched it.
“I want to see how this movie can move me”
Ye Zhiyuan said to himself with a relaxed smile
When they were in the car before, Lin Qiu and Ye Zhiyuan made a bet
The bet is whether Ye Zhiyuan will be moved to tears by the story of”Eight Masters”. The bet is a barbecue
You must know that whether it is”Love Letter”,”The Furnace” or”The God of Medicine”, Ye Zhiyuan has never shed a tear
As a director, Ye Zhiyuan really understands film shooting techniques and the accumulation of emotions.
Compared with ordinary movie fans, Ye Zhiyuan has seen a lot and is undoubtedly more rational.
So when Lin Qiu said that Ye Zhiyuan might even cry, Ye Zhiyuan naturally didn’t believe it.
“here we go”
As soon as the movie started, all the attention in the theater was focused on the big screen.
This is Lin Qiu’s movie, every frame is art!
As soon as the movie comes out, it’s the trailer
Above the classroom, a little boy stood on the podium, telling the story of his grandfather and Hachiko
“Hachiko is a dog raised by my grandfather”
“Everyone says that Hachiko is a mysterious dog, and no one knows its origins.”
“Grandpa said he didn’t know. He might have run away from some shelter, or he might have jumped out of a car. Anyway, Hachiko was a stray dog.”
“Many years ago, when my grandfather was still alive, Hachiko appeared at the train station”
……
“Good guy!”
“Damn, that’s how you cut the trailer, right?”
“Only Lin Qiu can do this.……”
“Hiss… isn’t this young actor the one in”The Crucible”?”
At the beginning of the movie, the audience atmosphere in the theater was quite relaxed, and more than one audience member laughed and complained softly.
This one-minute opening scene seems to be the entire content in the trailer of”Hachiko”
In the trailers of other movies, I wish I could cut out all the essence of the movie, for fear that the audience will not enter the theater.
Lin Qiu is a maverick
“I’m afraid that the audience won’t come to the theater.”
Lin Qiu said to himself
The emotions of the film need to be piled up, and the plot of”Hachiko” itself is simply tear-jerking.
If the content is really edited and the spoilers are revealed, there will definitely be many fans who will not step into the cinema.
……
The scene changed, and people were coming and going in the dim old train station.
The truck keeps making a squeaking sound
In the cage, there seemed to be dogs who came from nowhere, and the sounds of yelping puppies kept coming from the box!
Dudu——
The train passed by, the sound of the horn covering up the sound of the iron cage falling to the ground.
Xiaoba got out of the cage and appeared in front of the public naturally.
“so cute!”
“So cute!”
In the theater, a group of female viewers, including Tang Anning and Xu Xin, saw Xiaoba’s kindness and love unconsciously.
Women are born with more delicate, richer and more emotional emotions than men
What’s more, the maternal nature in their bones makes them fall in love with cute little animals!
On the big screen, Xiao Ba, played by Xiao Huang, kept walking in the train station, and the whole shot was very low.
It wasn’t until I met Professor Chen played by Chen Daohua that the camera gradually moved up!
A face familiar to all Xiazhou audiences
At this moment, many movie fans in the cinema subconsciously got goosebumps for no apparent reason!
After a few years, Chen Daohua once again appeared on the big screen
“Lost your way? brat”
Chen Daohua’s lines of just a few words can make movie fans feel the scholarly and elegant atmosphere of the professor.
This character is somewhat similar to Chen Daohua himself, and he is even more comfortable in performing it.
……
“Sensational soundtrack and atmosphere”
“This is what I went for.”
As a director, Ye Zhiyuan focuses more on
Just like”Love Letter”, as soon as it comes out, there are a little bit of soundtrack embellishments.
Ordinary movie fans may not pay attention, but they will inevitably become immersed in the story of the film under the creation of this atmosphere.
There is definitely no problem with Lin Qiu’s shooting techniques. It just depends on whether the emotions and stories stacked up can move the audience.
Because it is a film about dogs, many viewers in the theater found it very novel and did not want to blink, as they concentrated on enjoying the plot.
Unable to find the owner, Professor Chen could only take Xiaoba back to his home
But because his wife never liked raising dogs, Professor Chen could only sneak Xiaoba in after confirming that his wife was upstairs.
The wife has not seen her husband for a long time, and the fire is burning, and the clouds and rain are changing!
Seeing this section, the movie fans all showed meaningful smiles!
But Xiaoba took action at this moment. Looking for the sound, he stumbled all the way into the bedroom.
“Damn it……”
“Holy crap, crap, crap!”
“Stimulate——”
It was obviously a dog, but the audience saw a different meaning.
Under the expectation of the audience, Xiaoba smelled the smell and licked Tang Jia’s delicate feet.
Then Tang Jia jumped straight out of the bed like a carp, ejected and howled miserably!
The whole cinema suddenly burst into laughter!
“Hahahahaha!”
“LOL!”
“If a man is frightened like this, he may lose his glory.!”
……
Faced with his wife’s anger, Professor Chen had no choice but to place Xiaoba in the former dog house and promised to send the picked-up dog away early tomorrow morning.
Lin Qiu’s film art has always been touching, even if it is a���, as if they all have human emotions.
Through the gap in the dog house door, Xiaoba’s big moist eyes silently looked at Professor Chen’s back.
The appearance of the pastoral dog itself is lovable, and this time, it made countless female viewers feel maternal love.
“This dog’s acting skills……”
Seeing this scene, Ye Zhiyuan was a little shocked
The grievance in the dog’s eyes was so vivid and touching that Ye Zhiyuan didn’t even know how Lin Qiu did it!
After the movie ends, Ye Zhiyuan must ask Lin Qiu
“This dog is a better actor than a human. It’s too exaggerated.”
……
In the subsequent story, because his wife did not agree to adopt the puppy, Professor Chen had to embark on the road of finding an adopter.
But no matter it is a shelter, a bookstore or a roadside stall, familiar friends are unable to adopt this puppy due to various reasons.
In desperation, Professor Chen could only take the puppy with him
Because there was a small lock on the puppy’s neck with the word”eight” on it, Professor Chen named the puppy”Xiaoba”.”
At this time, the audience is thinking
How great it would be if Professor Chen’s wife could agree to Xiaoba becoming a member of the big family!
But things went counterproductive. Even though Professor Chen had a big fight with his wife over Xiaoba, his wife was still unwilling to adopt Xiaoba.
Xiao Ba’s pitiful eyes were captured by several close-ups of Lin Qiu. The audience had no rational thinking and immediately became dissatisfied with his wife:
“Why not adopt Xiaoba! How cute is Xiaoba!”
“It’s really a whole big mullet!”
“This wife is so unkind!”
……
In real life, liking or not liking small animals is an individual’s freedom
Regarding this aspect, the quarrels on the Internet over the years have never subsided.
One group said that the other party was cold-blooded and inhumane
One group said that the other party should consider reality, that humans are greater than dogs
It is difficult to have a compromise opinion
But in the movie, who cares so much about you?
Especially a movie with Hachiko as the main perspective
But Ye Zhiyuan remained calm, thinking about a question:
“Why is there a doghouse in the professor’s house?”
“Could it be foreshadowing?”
……
As a director, Lin Qiu is really good at stirring up the audience’s emotions.
The audience’s dissatisfaction with his wife completely disappeared after just a few minutes.
Especially when the wife saw her husband and Xiaoba playing happily in the sun with bright smiles, she thought twice and rejected the adoption request on the other end of the phone.
This made the audience who had secretly scolded his wife for being unkind suddenly blush.
Who would have thought that a slap in the face would come so quickly?
“Sorry~”
The world itself is not black and white, and there always needs to be time and space for people to accept it.
“How on earth was this filmed?”
“It’s so exquisite”
Ye Zhiyuan’s voice of exclamation never stopped in his heart.
Xiaoba’s longing, grievance, and happiness were all perfectly displayed on the big screen, and he was so spiritual.
Is this something humans can do?
……
As Xiao Ba gradually grew up, he established an unusual emotional connection with the audience in the theater.
But this makes many filmmakers in the industry more curious
How to film the next story?
The plot of the literary film is as beautiful and plain as ever, and it is deeply rooted in emotional connections. loadAdv(7,3);
But if we keep going like this, we will undoubtedly be labeled as”boring” and”boring”
This is an important obstacle for literary films to explore the market
From then on, Xiaoba would be at the door of the train station every day, waiting for the professor’s return on time.
“boring?”
“Not boring at all!”
“I just hope that such a simple daily life can continue forever”
The audience’s perception is completely different
They like this healing routine very much
Whenever Xiaoba plays with the professor and jumps on the professor
Or when the two of them were walking side by side on the railway, the professor and Xiaoba were chatting.
Or the scene of Xiaoba waiting for the professor to return, it heals them every moment.
One month, two months, three months
Xiaoba has grown up
The professor’s daughter found her husband and got married with the blessings of her family!
In this family photo, Xiaoba is also among them, smiling very happily.
Soon after, the professor’s daughter became pregnant
The happiness of this family has reached its peak!
Can……
Are Lin Qiu’s movies really that simple?
After happiness comes fall
Ye Zhiyuan looked at the screen with burning eyes
I know that the turning point of the movie may come here.
Each of those scenes full of love and warmth was recorded in the film’s unique gray-white perspective.
……
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
On this day, the professor played by Chen Daohua was preparing to take Xiaoba to the train platform as usual.
But this time, Xiaoba not only refused to go out, but also barked at the professor!
“really”
Ye Zhiyuan took a deep breath and looked at Lin Qiu sitting in the front row.
Lin Qiu’s expression was quite calm.
There has always been a rumor in previous lives that dogs can see things that humans cannot.
And this is not without scientific basis
The famous British biologist Rupert Sheldrick has published books describing many puzzling animal behaviors, including”telepathy” with their owners.”
According to the database investigated by Sheldrake, there were more than 5,000 cases of animal telepathy during the investigation, including sensing that the owner came home, etc.
Among them, there were 177 cases in which dogs remotely sensed the death or suffering of their owners.
The way animals express themselves is generally howling and whimpering, especially dogs that are more humane.
The originally warm scene ended with Xiaoba’s barking
Xiaoba desperately wanted to keep the professor, but the professor still boarded the train to school
But that last kiss seemed like a farewell!
“Xiaoba, see you at five o’clock!”
……
“No way!”
“I feel something is wrong……”
“Sure enough, Lin Qiu’s movie won’t be that simple!”
Seeing this scene, the audience was a little anxious!
They really hope that the warm scene of Xiaoba and the professor can be frozen, and they can live happily together forever.
But this is the movie world, how can there be such a dull story?
Above the classroom, Professor Chen was lecturing to the students as always:
“Do you think this is right?”
“Think about today’s performances, if you go on stage, play a CD, and lip-sync, everything will be fine!”
“Is this foolproof?”
“I don’t think so. Real music is hard to come by, just like life and soul.”
“Create…Create……”
When Professor Chen said this, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and then he started to stagger.
In the hearts of movie fans
A red, huge word”danger” rose up!
That feeling is like not being able to breathe a breath of fresh air, not being able to breathe at all
“No way……”
The audience swallowed their saliva
Professor Chen lowered his head
Audience:”No way.……”
Professor Chen breathed heavily
Audience:”No.……”
boom!
Professor Chen suffered a heart attack and suddenly fell to the ground unconscious.
“teacher! teacher!”
“quick! Call an ambulance!”
“Find someone quickly!”
The sound of Professor Chen’s body hitting the ground was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of all the viewers in the theater!
When filming this plot, Chen Daohua shot it completely in real life without any protective measures.
That’s why it’s so real!
The superb acting skills perfectly presented the feeling of being out of breath due to a heart attack on the screen, making the audience feel a little synchronized and out of breath.
Another textbook acting scene that will remain in film history!
This movie captures the audience’s emotions very well.
As soon as the camera turned back to Xiaoba, who had been waiting in the flower bed outside the train station, all the viewers in the theater couldn’t help but tremble.
The first hour of the movie was almost full of touching and warm emotions.
It is precisely with this kind of foreshadowing that when the tear-jerking plot really comes, the audience can be truly involved.
From this scene on, Ye Zhiyuan forgot about film shooting techniques, light and shadow techniques, and the overlapping of emotions. He was completely absorbed in it.���In the story of”Hachiko”
Ye Zhiyuan wanted to know what happened next.
……
Waiting until night, Xiaoba was crawling on the flower bed, waiting for the arrival of his master as always
But one train after another passed by, but that familiar figure was never seen.
It was the arrival of Professor Chen’s son-in-law that brought Hachiko home.
Through the cracks in the dog house, Hachiko’s eyes kept looking out, but he only heard the hoarse crying coming from the house.
This is a cozy trap
At this moment, all the viewers involuntarily fell into this trap.
After everyone in the audience got used to the daily life of Hachiko and the professor, and became accustomed to the warmth, Lin Qiu coldly waved the long knife in his hand, cutting off all these beautiful things.
The so-called beauty, like a dream, directly collapses in the audience’s world
What followed was the most primitive sadness
Xiaoba, who is humane, seems to know what happened, and his eyes cannot hide the loss while lying in the dog house.
The audience no longer regards Xiaoba as a dog, but as a member of the entire big family
And the first tear point of the movie comes at this moment
At Professor Chen’s funeral, there was no sign of Xiaoba
Xiaoba just glanced at it from a distance, ran to the flower bed in front of the station and squatted down as usual, waiting for the arrival of his master as usual
A close-up shot of Xiaoba’s face
Although there wasn’t a single tear, Xiaoba’s expression looked like he was sobbing.
It was this shot that made more than one audience member in the theater burst into tears subconsciously.
“Listen, Xiaoba, you don’t have to wait any longer”
“He won’t come back”
In the snow that was flying all over the sky, the administrator of the train station squatted in front of Xiaoba and said slightly sadly.
Can Xiaoba understand it?
No doubt you can understand it
But even though he understood, Xiaoba remained unmoved. He just kept squatting on the flower bed with a lonely expression and whined in a low voice.
……
“Woo……”
Tang Anning took the paper handed over by Xu Xin and wiped her tears
It wasn’t just Tang Anning, there were more and more sobbing sounds in the cinema.
Communication between people is often mixed with interests, especially in today’s society.
But the relationship between people and animals, especially people and dogs, is pure emotion.
Xiaoba went to Professor Chen’s daughter’s new home
But whenever there is a chance, Xiaoba will rush out of the door and run towards the familiar flower bed and the familiar train station!
After arriving at his new home, Xiaoba is still lonely every day, missing his professor and his master.
Or in the simple world of dogs, there is no such thing as master or not.
This is the definition given to them by humans
Whenever she sees Xiaoba standing by the railing at home, looking at the train station, Professor Chen’s daughter is heartbroken.
This time, she did not choose to keep her beloved Xiaoba by her side
Instead, he loosened Xiaoba’s collar.
“Go, Xiaoba”
This time, when Xiaoba left, he didn’t run away like crazy like before.
Instead, he turned his head and took a deep look, as if he was saying his final farewell to his relatives.
In the years that followed, Xiaoba waited for the professor in the flower bed outside the train station day after day.
When you are hungry, you will beg for food like the acquaintances around you
At night, I just hide in a corner of a certain carriage to rest.
Canteen owners around the train station, train station employees, and acquaintances from some stores
Whenever I see Xiaoba waiting for the professor, I will sit next to Xiaoba and chat with Xiaoba like an old friend.
No one regards Xiaoba as just a dog kept in captivity by humans.
But the most sincere friend of mankind
He is an old friend with whom they communicate and confide.
……
The audience in the theater sobbed again
At the same time, Ye Zhiyuan’s tears suddenly surged up at this moment
Ye Zhiyuan was moved not by Xiaoba waiting for the professor, but by the ordinary people who interacted with Xiaoba
Every time these people sit next to Xiaoba, chatting with Xiaoba, talking about the past years
Ye Zhiyuan can feel the most sincere emotions in the movie
This has nothing to do with technology or shooting techniques, it is the simplest and purest emotion
“perhaps……”
“Am I too focused on shooting technique?”
Ye Zhiyuan was a little dazed
Ye Zhiyuan’s film shooting techniques have always been quite superb
But works that are not close to the level of masterpieces are always just one step away from them.
On the other hand, Lin Qiu, every film can touch people’s hearts, and all of them have high scores.
This is not just a matter of subject matter. The same subject matter can show the most sincere magic in Lin Qiu’s hands.
When I see these acquaintances holding Xiaoba in their arms and sighing about the impermanence of life,
How many people can’t be moved by this picture?
Even the filmmakers in the industry had tears in their eyes, watching the ever-changing spring, summer, autumn and winter flashing on the movie screen.
No matter it’s windy or raining, or it’s snowing or hailing, Hachiko is always here.
From the time when the cute and ignorant Xiao Ba
Ten years later, Hachiko became a hobbling old dog.
A dog’s lifespan is limited
A pastoral dog has a lifespan of 12 to 18 years after a full litter.
Today, Hachiko is very old, as if he has reached the twilight years of his life.
Dirty all over, just like a real stray dog
But the vendors around me would smile and say hello to Hachiko every time they passed by the station!
Everyone seems to have feelings for this dirty bitch
ten years later
Professor Chen’s wife returned to her former home to pay homage to her husband
In the past ten years, my wife, who has been living in sorrow, has completely forgotten the existence of Xiaoba.
But when the wife played by Tang Jia was about to leave, she saw a familiar figure on the flower bed of the train station.
Even after ten years, Xiao Hachi became Hachiko, his coat color was completely dull and he lost the vitality in his past memories.
She still recognized Xiaoba at a glance!
“Xiaoba!”
“Xiaoba…is that you?”
“Xiaoba……”
Tang Jia stretched out his hand in front of Xiaoba
And Xiaoba, just like ten years ago, licked Tang Jia’s hand
But now Xiaoba has long lost his vitality.
It seems that every action you make takes a lot of effort
At this moment, the surrounding vendors looked at the flower beds of the train station from their windows and sighed slightly.
The professor did not witness Xiaoba’s life, but they all witnessed it
For the past ten years, Xiaoba has been here, rain or shine
Even though I know that waiting is meaningless, the memories of Xiaoba and the professor are all here
From meeting and acquaintance to daily attachment and waiting, Xiaoba’s world has long been filled with the shadow of the professor.
The audience’s tears flowed down unconsciously
If we say that the emotions in”The Crucible” are too far away from their lives
Then everyone can relate to the story of”Hachiko”!
Because dogs are such animals
If you have had a dog for three years, even if you come back after being away for a few years, the dog will still remember you and jump into your arms!
In the eyes of dogs, there is no prejudice against identity, status or society.
It recognizes you and you are its lifelong friend. It will never abandon you no matter what and will always protect you.
From the time a dog is young until they grow old, their emotions will not change.
What is even more touching is that
Even in old age, dogs will run out of the house desperately when they sense that they are about to die.
Leave your master, run to a corner where no one can find you, and die quietly
Because they don’t want their owners to see them leaving
……
