Coquettish Rebirth

Finally, the opening title of the TV series appeared on the TV screen, and Ye Jing watched the opening title attentively.In her mind, why shouldn't this title be so gorgeous and eye-catching?But in the end, who knew that the opening title was actually very—vegetarian!What is Su?At the beginning of the film, it is not like the usual TV dramas of this era to stitch together various scenes in the drama, and then add a theme song and subtitles.On the contrary, the shooting is a bit like a documentary-starting from a corner of the city street in the early morning outside the house, using a speeded-up lens to show the lives of many people on a commercial street.Some of these people started to go out to wholesale products in the middle of the night, and then came back at three or four o'clock with half-fingered pigs and the like.Some people get up at three or four o'clock and start kneading dough and making buns. It can be said that before ordinary office workers wake up, these people are already very busy!

Then when ordinary people go to work, the business of these stores that have been busy before will of course become busy, and then as ordinary people go to work, the business is also slow.After closing the stalls, these foreigners who set up stalls can also take a break.At such a time, a narration appeared outside the camera, "Every day, they are providing the most basic necessities of life for the office workers in the city. The office workers know that they come from other places to set up shops and set up stalls, and they know that they are here to solve the problem. Everyone has problems with food, clothing, housing and transportation, but they don’t know that their children live in mountainous areas thousands of miles away all the year round..."

Ye Jing was really taken aback when she heard such a narration.She really didn't expect that the beginning of the show would be filmed like this!Why are you so serious?How do you make it look like a documentary?Is this right?Will it make many people feel that this movie is not good-looking at the first time?Thinking of this, she turned to ask Jia Hongjian directly. "Why did you make the beginning like this?" She asked, but Jia Hongjian smiled badly after hearing this, "Because this film was promoted under my name, and I made it Many people all over the country know that I provided the idea for this film. Since everyone knows that I provided the idea, it is estimated that after seeing such a serious beginning, everyone will give me face and keep looking forward to it. How about coming down, isn't it attractive?"

Ye Jing was stunned when she heard this, what?Does this mean that Jia Hongjian deliberately made the beginning of the film into such a too serious pattern?And the reason is that everyone knows that this film was shot by him, so they will be more patient?This, this...why does this feel so naughty like a child?Just when she thought so.Just listening to Jia Hongjian seemed like a roundworm in her stomach, and he directly explained the question she didn't say-"Like a Hollywood movie, don't they basically have a 5-minute foreshadowing plot? No matter what blockbuster movie, The first 5 minutes are basically garbage time, which is to introduce the characters and the general background. In fact, I was supposed to introduce the characters and the background. If I were to do it, 1 minute would be enough, but they insisted on showing the boring daily life of the protagonist and so on. , to show a series of backgrounds they want to show. When looking at this kind of details, although it is possible to convey various information they want to convey. But it is too lengthy and boring. Even in the 70s At that time, the foreshadowing of this movie was still longer - Stallone's famous debut work "Rocky" actually used a full 20 minutes to exaggerate the failure of the protagonist Rocky's life, and then let the protagonist greet him after 20 minutes passed. Here comes a turning point in life... This kind of movie really makes people want to sleep after watching it!"

Having said that, Jia Hongjian paused, "It was like when I was making a movie, I didn't dare to do it. For example, in the movie "The Bellucci Family War", I talked about it in the first 2 minutes Bellucci and his family went to Sarajevo. The scene that the audience might find boring was compressed to the minimum. I used to wonder why those Hollywood film companies waste the audience’s time so much, but then I thought. Maybe they just think Since the audience has paid to watch the movie, they will definitely not leave because of the boredom of the first 5 minutes, right? For modern audiences, maybe 20 minutes and half an hour of boring scenes will make the audience choose to leave, But everyone really won’t leave after 5 minutes! After all, most movies are 90 minutes long, what if the next 85 minutes are all good?”

Jia Hongjian said this.That's really addicting, "So this is a kind of psychology! So in such a TV series, I also want to try it. Of course, if I try it, it is naturally impossible to say that the first 5 minutes are very boring. That kind of thing I love I can’t do it. So in the end, I chose to make the beginning more serious and different from everyone’s expected style, creating a feeling that seems to be very real, like a documentary. And I guess everyone is still in such a situation. We will all accept it, and at the same time our play is relatively real, the background of the times and the background of the characters are very real. Although the characters and stories are fictitious, it looks like it is happening, so use a similar At the beginning of the documentary, I think it can better hint to the audience the truth of such a drama!"

"Really?" Ye Jing looked at Jia Hongjian suspiciously. She felt that Jia Hongjian sometimes fooled her and deliberately teased her, so at such a time, she didn't know whether she should trust Jia or not. Hung-chien is gone.But she didn't have to think about it too much, because the title will end soon, and the plot will begin!After the plot started, it didn't directly narrate the background of the protagonist's "past life and present life", but directly let a man in his 20s who looked very "urban" and very western style come to a beautiful but messy place. Inside the mountain village school.Then this foreign-looking man entered the principal's office to start the interview!This person actually wants to be the physical education teacher of this mountain village school!

After looking at the man's resume, the headmaster said that there was absolutely nothing to be picky about in the resume. This man is definitely qualified to be a physical education teacher, but the only question the headmaster has is—why did such an outstanding young man come here? How about being a physical education teacher in a mountain village school?By the way, the principal also read about the establishment of the protagonist—a graduate from the Physical Education and Training Institute of a well-known sports college in the country, and this major is still a national key major!Seriously, this diploma does not mean that you can become a physical education teacher in a university, at least it is absolutely no problem to be a physical education teacher in a key high school in a big city!After all, education is a stepping stone, and this stepping stone is absolutely excellent!Not to mention that the protagonist went to a youth basketball training camp organized by a cba professional team as a coach during the summer vacation of his junior year. Such an internship experience.Not to mention that you can support the protagonist to become a coach in the echelon of the cba team, at least it is no problem to go to a high school with a basketball tradition in a provincial capital city as an assistant coach, right?So why does such a protagonist come to this mountain village school to be a physical education teacher?

Through such a method, the TV series quickly showed the characteristics of the protagonist, and at the same time quickly created a suspense, making the audience wonder why such a protagonist would come to such a mountain village to be a teacher?And in this way, wouldn't there be a space for "flashback"?What is flashback?This is a term in American dramas.Specifically speaking, it is to bring the plot into some previous things through memories and other methods, so as to carry out an interlude with different time and space clues.Jia Hongjian didn't like to do a lot of foreshadowing at the beginning, but foreshadowing is often needed, and it is necessary to explain the origin of the protagonist and the reasons why the protagonist does various things.But Jia Hongjian didn't like the foreshadowing, so how to explain?Just flash back and explain!Just use such a different way at the beginning to quickly focus the audience's attention, set up suspense points, and make the audience curious, and then naturally pave the way for the reverse.Because there is suspense.Therefore, the audience will take this supplementary narrative very seriously, and it will be easier to accept it. This is much better than not asking 21 at the beginning and just laying the groundwork. The effect is much, much better!

Then the plot entered the flashback, and of course it introduced the various backgrounds of the protagonist—he was a top student in school, and the internship was also praised by the cba professional coaches.In such a situation, the protagonist’s graduation thesis wrote about using sports to improve left-behind children’s unmotivated learning, but was sneered at by the responding teacher!The protagonist is quite unconvinced about this.Although the defense teacher finally let the protagonist's thesis pass the defense, but a series of actions made it seem that the protagonist's thesis was written in a silly and naive way.It's just that the teacher didn't want to delay the students in the end, so he just let the protagonist pass.This makes the main character very, very upset!So after graduation, the protagonist quit the job he found with his girlfriend to be a teacher in a private aristocratic school, and then came to the mountain village school as a physical education teacher to practice his theory!

In such a situation, the principal should be welcoming in various ways, right?No!Instead, the principal tried to persuade the protagonist not to come, but to go back and be a teacher in a noble school!Such a reaction from the principal.That really surprised the protagonist.The protagonist asks the principal why he is unwilling to accept him. In the end, the principal can't bear it, so he reveals the real reason-the school has limited funds, and there is no fund for special basketball education, not even school basketball!How does this allow the protagonist to teach children how to play?Moreover, 90% of the students in this school will drop out of school and go to work within three years after graduating from elementary school.Parents don't want their children to learn how to play basketball, so there really isn't much room for the protagonist's idealism!In the end, the principal was also worried that if the protagonist would "reform" after joining the job, and then found out that it was no longer possible, the protagonist would resign, pat his ass and leave, and the resulting mess would be left to the principal and the teachers of this school?So the principal simply didn't want the protagonist to join the job!

Ye Jing was really surprised when she saw this place!Originally, she and Jia Hongjian were not there when this scene was filmed, so she was really surprised to see this scene now!Originally, according to her prediction, such a tall protagonist came to the rustic mountain village school. Why didn't the whole school, from the principal to the teachers to the children, come to welcome each one with joy?Why didn't the headmaster welcome him?Why is the plot so unexpected?
