Chapter 312 Sketching the Writer with Works, the drama "Xiao Hong"(1/2)
As a literary young woman, Bao Jingjing is not stupid. Of course she knows that the screenwriter of this drama is the "sledgehammer".
But the arrangement of the drama "Xiao Hong" was too unexpected, and she couldn't believe that it was made by Xiangyang.
Because this drama is so interesting.
What is the plot arrangement of the drama "Xiao Hong"?
From the beginning of "The Abandoned" it can basically be seen that the plot of this drama is based on Xiao Hong's works.
Moreover, it’s not just about what this work is, but about acting!
Performance Xiao Hong's works!
The most interesting thing is that this performance was performed by Xiao Hong in the drama himself.
"The Abandoned" is a particularly representative example. After that, there is... well, there is even the short story "Two Frogs".
It was so interesting that Xiangyang and Xiao Hong simply pretended to be the two frogs on the stage.
You know, this novel is not a fairy tale, it is not a story about two frogs, it is just a frog in the article.
Actually, it's about the left-wing comrades.
Someone inside was arrested and killed.
On this stage, Xiangyang and Wan Qian, who were acting as two frogs, talked about the story in this novel.
There are also some interactions and feelings between the two of them.
What’s interesting is that on the curtain behind the stage, there was an image of a basket carrying a basket swaying back and forth. At this time, the two of them would roll and crawl.
This scene naturally makes everyone laugh.
But, it's also very good at understanding.
So, what about the last of these two frogs?
"Those individuals go to the execution ground and are killed by people like them. Then we are just two frogs, what can we do?"
"Of course we can't do anything, let's just watch it. Cooperate with a few screams, they were happy."
"You stupid toad, don't you understand what I mean?"
"Oh, I understand. Let's make more tadpoles."
Tadpole?
Yes, aren’t frog’s children just tadpoles?
But this tadpole...
In the entire Panhua Theater, what I laughed is... I have to hold it in.
This is simply a dirty joke, but it doesn't make any mistakes.
Xiangyang and Wan Qian are husband and wife, and these two frogs are also couples. It’s special, and this place is very, very consistent with the original work.
Xiao Hong's "Two Frogs" is very short and can be watched very simply.
And these two frogs finally made a lot of small frogs, oh by the way, they should be tadpoles.
As for the arrested comrades?
Obviously, this novel has something profound, and what does the frog represent?
They are those insensitive people who applaud when they see revolutionary patriots being killed.
Much like Ah Q.
Now, Xiangyang and Wan Qian have performed this way.
As for this stage play, Xiao Hong did not play the role, but the frog, which was originally a huge breakthrough.
Moreover, it shows this profound thing.
How is the outside world like? What does it have to do with us frogs?
Just keep having a baby.
Very vivid and extremely ironic.
Compared to the "Abandoned" at the beginning, this "Two Frogs" is much more interesting, and the pattern is much bigger.
You should know that the heroine "Qin" in the novel "Abandoned" is almost Xiao Hong himself.
This novel basically describes Xiao Hong’s own story, all the plots and basic settings in it are all like this.
It’s different if the party class is “Two Frogs”, it’s obviously a highly combative article.
It not only satirizes the common people like "Ah Q" who likes to watch beheading, but also satirizes the opponents in the literary world.
In fact, at that time, there were almost always people in the Chinese literary world.
This situation is also described in "The Golden Age".
Mr. Lu Xun, played by Mr. Wang Ziwen, talked about his slander, which was really grand.
but!
Bao Jingjing really wants to complain, it is the movie "Golden Age". The handling of this plot is too simple.
How dangerous was the literary world at that time?
Just talk about how many years there will be a war on the top, which Han Er himself said.
In fact, when everyone criticized each other on the Internet at that time, the second Korean fights against the so-called traditional writers.
If you understand the cultural and historical development of our country, you will know that it is related to the battle situation of Mr. Lu Xun and the League of Left-wing Writers.
There is no way to compare.
What is the League of Left Wing Writers?
They were all a group of warriors. At that time, not only were there pen wars, but also many tactics.
We are currently having sex on the Internet, which is too slight.
To be honest, Bao Jingjing is actually not very concerned about these things, but she is studying literature, so of course she understands it.
But Mr. Xu from Hong Kong, a famous director, how could you not shoot much about these?
Or, it can be explained through that narrative technique.
That is, just make side profiles, and as for the frontal description, don’t worry about it.
So, in the movie, all I see is these left-wing writers, having dinner and chatting together, and rehearsing dramas.
However, this always gives people a feeling of being almost touching.
This drama is completely different now!
You should know that the audience who watch dramas have a higher appreciation.
This is just an objective reality and does not involve anything else.
The reason is very simple. The ticket price for dramas is much higher than that for movies.
Those who can spend so much money to watch a drama, if they are not true love, they are joining in the fun.
Most of them should be more research-oriented, or the talents of old drama fans are OK.
Therefore, Bao Jingjing guessed that most of the audiences in the Panhua Theater should know some of the battle situations of the Left-wing Writers Alliance back then.
In this case, there should be no problem with this drama.
To the taste of the audience.
Then, this drama "Xiao Hong" staged a work by Xiao Hong.
However, not all works are performed.
There are key points among them.
For example, "The Field of Life and Death".
Xiangyang and Wan Qian played the role of the Erliban and Mami Po.
They were really miserable.
There are other characters in this novel, so Zhang Guangsheng, Li Youbin, and even Zhang Yi and others came to make guest appearances.
And Yaya...
And the subsequent "The Legend of Hulanhe" was interesting.
Sister Zi Feng appeared.
She told the story of Hulan River in the tone of a little girl.
The red persimmon seemed to be becoming brighter and brighter in the little girl's mouth.
Until the end, it naturally ended with Xiao Hong's death, which is what it should be.
But this drama is almost completely different from that movie "The Golden Age".
To be continued...
