Old things in the south

Chapter 85
For several years, I seldom went to the cinema for three reasons: I didn’t want to see good movies being cut, I didn’t want to step on chicken bones all over the floor or hear the sound of soda bottles rolling down, and I didn’t want to squeeze in the crowd blocked by scalpers. In line to buy tickets.Let's see how long it's been since the last time I watched "If I'm Real".But on Sunday, in the torrential rain, I waited in two lines to buy a ticket to see "My Son's Big Doll".

I am familiar with Huang Chunming's works, but I don't know how the screenwriter will write them, or how the director will direct them.After I finished watching it in one breath, I woke up from the movie and returned to my seat in the theater from the small town, the clowns in the back alleys, the little girls, the salesman...During the plot of the movie, although I laughed because of the funny words and actions of the characters in the play, my mood was pity and sadness. Every audience is the same!But when I left the movie theater and walked on the rain-washed sidewalk in the northwest, my heart was full of joy: joy for the success of this film, and for the original author Huang Chunming and screenwriter Wu Nianzhen to finally complete their ambition and ideal work And joy, joy because the two of them are writing friends I know.

A good original work is in vain without a good screenwriter and director.Wu Nianzhen, who was born in a miner's family, experienced the ups and downs of the mining area in his hometown Jiufen since he was a child. From the prosperity of the restaurant to the decline, there were only ten or twenty families left in a mile, and there were no freshmen in the first grade of elementary school.The script written by such a person who has seen many real people can capture the spirit of the original work.Wu Nianzhen is only 30 years old, and he looks like a gentle scholar.

I am much more familiar with Huang Chunming, whenever I see him, he is full of energy.A friend of mine in Yilan said with a smile, "I can tell by looking at Yilan noodles on the street." I asked if there are any characteristics or differences in the faces of Yilan people?The Yilan people I know are like Lan Yinding, Yang Yingfeng, Huang Chunming, Wu Jingji, and Yang Lihua. Are their "Yilan noodles" different from those of other people?My friend couldn't tell either.I asked Huang Chunming, and Huang Chunming said: "I haven't heard of any difference in the faces of Yilan people, but we Yilan people have a relatively strong rebellious personality, so many people are engaged in art." He is indeed right, Huang Chunming is a typical one , Aren’t the people mentioned above all artists?It is not bad at all that a person with such a personality can better develop his own creativity in art.

Reading Huang Chunming's novels seems to satirize social phenomena and sympathize with the little people in the back alleys. Do you think he is a cynical and cynical person?There may be, but behind all of this, there is an emotion of "love", love for home, love for children, and sympathy for good people. In the movie "Son's Big Doll", the audience can also see it.The children and women depicted in his pen make us feel that they should be protected, don't abuse and destroy them!
I remember that he first submitted an article to "Lianfu", which was the first article "Get Out of the City" in March 1962. He didn't know who the editor was, and he sent a special letter asking him not to write "Get Out of the City" Change it to "Get Out of the City".Chunming's novels are not very elaborate on words, but he uses language very well. In his novels, he not only portrays the social phenomena at that time in a true and realistic way, but also describes the characteristics of who says what. I often feel that his novels are not read flat, but have sound, so it is most suitable for his novels to be adapted into movies.In the movie "Son's Big Doll", he used the four languages ​​of the Three Kingdoms, and it was very appropriate.Huang Chunming is a very intelligent writer. No matter what he does, he is not only full of drive, but also quick-witted. It was really not suitable for him to study in a normal school back then. He could not obediently be a good teacher for the rest of his life.He can write and draw, and he also has two hands in design.When he came back from serving as a soldier, he hosted a morning show in Taiwanese called "Looking at the Sky Early in the Crowing of Rooster" on Zhongguang Yilan Station, just like Zhongguang's "Morning Park", and the audience was very large.A few years ago, he did planning and design for "Adida", making "Adida" known to everyone, and it was really Huang Chunming's "brain".Everyone also knows that he has created a new realm of filming documentaries, such as "Dajia Mazu Returns to Her Mother's Home" and so on.

The young man who started from Yilan Street in the past has finally stepped into his favorite film production. After "Son's Big Doll", there are "Days Watching the Sea", "Two Painters", etc., and by He adapted the screenplay himself, and maybe even directed it himself.

In his 40s, it is the time when life is round and mature, and Huang Chunming has many things he wants to do, but he once said: "After all, I am a novelist, and there are many things that I often want to use novels to solve. "Send a message to Chunming, don't forget this sentence!Readers are also very important!
