The Right Way on Earth describes Xiao Huaizhong, the head of the Red Army who has fought many battles and made outstanding achievements. After being transferred to the director of Yan 'an Bureau of Taxation and Trade, he made remarkable achievements in the taxation work of the Bureau of Taxation and Trade with his hard struggle on the battlefield, and was well received by Chairman Mao, Commander-in-Chief Zhu and Chairman Lin of the Border Region. The people even praised him as "a good cadre in Yan 'an! "However, when he faced many specific challenges, it was difficult to be defeated. For example, physical weakness and the fetters of family are the easiest to destroy people's souls and beliefs. Chairman Mao's concern gave him the confidence to do the party's work well. However, children's hunger; When the child's life is in danger, his will begins to weaken. This is also human nature, and it is difficult to overcome the reasons for tripping easily.
In the story, Xiao Huaizhong was lured by illegal grain merchants (money, women), and driven by the seemingly high-sounding reason of "self-interest and no harm to others", a deep-rooted Red Army cadre was used by the Kuomintang sabotage group. Illegal grain merchants smuggled a large amount of grain out of Yan 'an, which raised the grain price in Yan 'an and triggered a mass grain grab, social unrest and public opposition. Xiao Huaizhong finally embarked on the road of crime! In court, faced with conclusive evidence, Xiao Huaizhong had to plead guilty. However, he felt culpable of punishment. He made outstanding achievements in the war, fought and died on the battlefield, and his body was scarred. He also saved Chairman Mao's life? All this has aroused great repercussions among the people. When Chairman Mao learned about this, his heart was very heavy. In the face of Xiao Huaizhong's mother's entreaties, some leading cadres and the masses in the party also felt that he should be spared, let him make meritorious deeds, save revolutionary bullets and destroy the enemy. Chairman Mao did not compromise on the principle of "rule by man or rule by law". After reading Xiao Huaizhong's letter to him, he clearly expressed his attitude: "Are you still our comrade? You are our enemy! I, Mao Zedong, cannot be above the law, and I firmly support the court's decision! " A crisp gunshot ended the life of this corrupt element who has fought many battles and made great achievements, and finally embarked on the road of betraying his beliefs and ideals! History is strikingly similar to today! This is a very realistic movie! This is a political and infectious film! In the past, when we were making movies with similar themes, many things were taught by language. I think, in this film, we should try our best to weaken the didactic part of the story and impress the audience with the development of the characters' fate, the perfection of production and the artistic appeal.
The most important thing in this movie is one word-"love". There is a mother-child relationship in our movies (Xiao Huaizhong and Xiao Mu); Have marital love (Xiao Huaizhong and Xiao's wife); There is a father-son relationship (Xiao Huaizhong and Jin Dan, Lingling); There is "eroticism" (Xiao Huaizhong, Huang Miaoxiang): there is war friendship (Xiao Huaizhong, Wang Ruonan); Leadership (Mao Zedong and the people in the border areas); And so on, these mutual "feelings" weave the plot structure of our play. Therefore, in the creation, we must firmly grasp the word "emotion", move people with emotion, and strive to complete the film creation accurately and delicately.
Photography: The tone of photography should be thick and strong. The feeling of oil painting. Greater than contrast, some individual scenes should have obvious contrast between light and shade, and even some plays can be exaggerated appropriately in order to strengthen the characters and promote the development of the story, so as to achieve the purpose of rendering the atmosphere.
Art: We wrote the story of Yan 'an period in the early forties. In addition to the sense of time in that period, the whole tone should be dominated by rich loess color, such as ravines, caves and Yan' an Street in northern Shaanxi. These large color blocks constitute the main color of our whole movie. Props and furnishings are decorated on the basis of this tone to increase the rich folk customs of northern Shaanxi and make the regional characteristics more prominent. The main colors of clothing are blue, gray, blue and brown, which avoids light and bright colors as much as possible, so that our film gives the audience a strong sense of history and increases the authenticity of the film.
Make-up: The actors we choose are basically the same as the people in the play. On the basis of restoring historical authenticity, according to the characters of different roles, appropriate artistic processing is carried out on the basis of being close to life.
Music: We are shooting a film with strong regional characteristics in northern Shaanxi, so the tune of music must be the tune with the characteristics of northern Shaanxi. But don't be pure, combine modern music on the basis of northern Shaanxi tunes to form the musical characteristics of our films. With the sadness of erhu, the agitation of violin and the organic combination of Chinese and western musical instruments, the "love" in our drama is set off.
Recording: Film and television are audio-visual arts. Therefore, the sound quality of a movie is directly related to the success or failure of future movies. I only have one request: please ask the sound engineer to design the sound composition of this film in an all-round way, so that the dynamic effect and music can be perfectly combined and complement each other, so as to achieve the artistic charm of promoting the story, rendering the environmental atmosphere and contrasting the characters' personalities!
Actor: The performance requires simplicity and naturalness. Time is tight and the cycle is short. We can only capture the living conditions of people in that historical period from the literature and history materials, and enter the role as soon as possible in a limited time, so that the audience can feel the thoughts and behaviors of people in that period from our role-shaping. Although we filmed history, it is still of great practical significance for today. Corruption-whether in the wartime of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression or in the peacetime of economic construction, will bring great disasters to our country, party and people! As Chairman Mao said at the end of our script: "Corruption in wartime will directly make us lose this war;" Corruption in peacetime will directly ruin a government, because it will eventually shake the foundation on which we live, and this foundation is the interests of the overwhelming majority of the people! " This is the theme of our film. I think, through the unity and cooperation of all business departments of our crew and the joint efforts of * * *, a good feature film will be produced and presented to the vast number of movie audiences. In the struggle against corruption and promoting honesty, do our part as a film artist!
