A widower's entertainment

Chapter 98 [Movie Director] (Thanks to the leader of LntanO)

Decheng, Chunfeng Lane.

The past years are like a long river, and the present time is like flowing water.

Before you know it, it's summer vacation time. Now Lin Zhaoxi and his brother are on summer vacation, and the few carrot heads are staying at home, but Lin Youcheng is still not particularly tired. Firstly, Jiang Xiulian is helping to look after her, and secondly, Lin Zhaoxi, Xi'er, is helping to take care of her. It's much easier than before.

Jiang Xiulian looked at Lin Youcheng and said, "Uncle, Sister-in-law Chunxia said there is an outdoor movie at the old alley today. Do you want to go and watch it?"

Lin Youcheng was a little surprised. After all, Chunfeng Lane was not in the countryside. It was not like the countryside where specialized film projectionists would go to the countryside to show movies in the countryside.

"Why is it being shown here?"

Jiang Xiulian shook her head and said, "I don't know either. Sister-in-law Chunxia said it seems to be organized by the street."

Lin Youcheng didn't ask any more questions. He had no special expectations for open-air movies at this time, but obviously for the general public, there seems to be nothing more exciting than watching open-air movies. After all, today's entertainment Life is very scarce. Except for the wealthy, people do not have televisions. Therefore, being able to watch a lively outdoor movie on a summer evening is a luxurious pastime.

If this were in the countryside, no matter how far away we were, I would probably carry myself on the bench and walk more than ten miles to watch a movie. It was just for fun and enjoyment. Although most of the movies shown in the village are war-themed movies, such as "Assault on the White Tigers", "Tunnel Warfare", "Railway Guerrilla" and other movies, it is obvious that no matter how many times you watch it, your interest will not diminish. At exciting moments, cheers and applause will always ring out on time. For some overly familiar films, they will even pick up the second half of the lines in unison, and everyone is always happy with it.

After the screening, everyone was still talking about the plot of the movie, angry, sad, and happy. Their faces showed the mixed feelings of joy, anger, sorrow, and inner feelings. It was more of a sense of satisfaction after watching the movie. and a sense of happiness.

This is also because of the strong support and subsidies from above. You must know that mobile screening teams have been bringing a large number of military and war-themed films to rural areas. On the one hand, these films promoted the views of the Anti-Japanese War, and on the other hand, they also stimulated the morale of the people. Therefore, from the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China to the mid-to-late 1970s, in addition to being a way to entertain the public, open-air movies also became an important means of propaganda.

It can be said that in this era, film projectionist is also a very enviable and desirable profession.

Similarly, in this era, open-air movies are quite rare for urbanites who own theaters.

At this time, most outdoor movies are shown in parks, and they are actually similar to those in movie theaters. Some are free, and some can be watched by paying the park ticket. There are many people.

Lin Youcheng didn't have any special expectations for open-air movies, and he didn't particularly want to go to the movies. He just said: "Then you can go and see it tonight. If Xi'er and the others also want to go, you can take them with you." Go and see.”

"Uncle, aren't you going to see me?"

Jiang Xiulian was a little surprised and said, "That's a movie."

Lin Youcheng smiled and shook his head and said: "I won't go there, I will still write at home."

If Lin Youcheng was really serious and wanted to go to a movie, he wouldn't have to go to an open-air movie. You should know that although Decheng was not as good as Beijing, there were still movie theaters.

Jiang Xiulian was surprised that Lin Youcheng didn't go to an outdoor movie, but she didn't ask much. After all, she also knew that Lin Youcheng was still writing. It was like Zhao Gensheng had not left school and returned to school even though he was on vacation. Xiang did not return to Longchuan, Yunnan Province, but continued studying in school.

"Then I'll take Xi'er behind and they'll go watch a movie."

Lin Youcheng nodded.

Because Lin Zhaohuan and Zhao Wenjie were both too young, they naturally stayed at home. The other carrot heads followed Jiang Xiulian and Xie Chunxia to watch an outdoor movie in the alley after dinner.

Although Lin Youcheng did not go to see an open-air movie, he remembered that his film "Love at the Hawthorn Tree" was adapted and filmed by director Wu Tianming of Xi'an Film Studio. After such a long time, the filming should have ended long ago. , I don’t know when it will be released, who plays the third child, and who plays Jingqiu.

For some reason, Lin Youcheng was looking forward to director Wu Tianming's version of "Hawthorn Tree Love".

As for the other "Love Letter", Lin Youcheng is not particularly looking forward to it, but he also wants to know that at this time, Zhang Guoshi was still working as a photographer at Xiguang Film Studio, and as expected, he would also be working with Chen Ai. With the cooperation of pigeons and the control of Mr. Chen, I don’t know what kind of version it will be.

Lin Youcheng didn't think much about it and continued to write the story of "Wonderful Things in the World" on the grid paper. By the time Jiang Xiulian and her brother and sister Lin Zhaoxi came back from watching the open-air movie, the little carrot heads were still very excited and chatting about the exciting content in the movie.

But the most excited person was not Lin Zhaoqing, but Lin Zhaomei. This was her first time watching a movie, and she really felt it was amazing.

Lin Zhaomei ran over to Lin Youcheng happily, with an excited smile on her face, and said, "Dad, we are going to watch a movie."

"Dad, the movie is so awesome!"

"There are so many people inside, it's so awesome!"

"Dad, you didn't know, it's so awesome!"

The ignorant Lin Zhaomei shared her feelings with Lin Youcheng with a smile on her face. She kept talking and asked: "Why are there so many people talking in the movie?"

"Why are there so many people in the movie?"

Lin Youcheng looked at the excited look of the little carrot head Lin Zhaomei, and found it a bit funny. He did not expect that Lin Zhaomei would be the most excited.

"The movie is the picture you see. Those people are photographed and presented through the picture."

Although it was unexpected, Lin Youcheng still patiently told Lin Zhaomei some movie-related things. Although it was a bit difficult to explain, Lin Youcheng did not answer particularly perfunctorily.

Of course, it is impossible for Lin Youcheng and Lin Zhaomei to say that frames and frames are the smallest components of film and television images respectively, and that a series of captured images can produce coherence and movement when projected quickly and continuously.

"Dad, who is the most powerful person in the movie?"

Who is the most powerful person in the movie?

In Lin Youcheng's view, the most powerful thing in movies in the future will naturally be capital. After all, capital determines whether a movie is possible or not. But obviously, Lin Youcheng cannot say this now, especially in front of his children, and most of today's movies are produced and shot by film studios in different places.

"The most powerful person in a movie is the director, and the movie is made by the director."

Lin Zhaomei, who had just graduated from preschool, said innocently with a smile on her face, "Then I will be a director in the future."

"Dad, I want to be a director in the future."

Lin Zhaomei didn't know what she meant. She just thought the movie was very nice and powerful. Although she didn't understand it yet, she just looked at the curtain, with a beam of light and shadows flashing, and those people were there. Talking from above the curtain was really magical, like a new toy she had never discovered before, which made her feel very powerful. It was really novel, like a special world had been opened.

Hearing Lin Zhaomei's words, Lin Youcheng smiled and didn't particularly care.

In his opinion, these are innocent words of a child, but Lin Zhaomei's ideal of becoming a scientist seems to be more practical than Lin Zhaoqing's.

Lin Youcheng smiled and replied, as if it was a joke, and said, "Okay, if you become a director in the future, you will be allowed to shoot the stories written by dad."

Although Lin Zhaomei's front teeth had grown in long ago, two more were missing now, and she still had trouble. She said, "Then I want to be the most powerful director."

Lin Zhaomei spoke childishly and smiled domineeringly and cutely.

　Many thanks to the leader of LntanO for the reward! ! Many thanks! grateful! grateful! ! Thank you so much! !
