The Age of Awakening: From the Young Runtu

Not only the script but also related novels were brought over.

Some people began to discuss: "Society is so dark that it feels like no light can penetrate. The poor Jean Valjean gave a micro class to let starving children steal bread, and as a result he was sentenced to 19 years of hard labor.

After being released from prison, he was desperate and began to steal silverware from a master who took him in for the night. He wanted to obtain new capital and then started to escape. In the end, he was caught by the patrol.

In the end, it was the priest who claimed that he had given it to Jean Valjean that finally saved him from being arrested. Later, the priest's words and deeds influenced Jean Valjean, and he began to become a man who could have influence on others. Help people.

After Jean Valjean heard the tragic story of a lost girl named Fantine, he agreed to take care of her illegitimate daughter Cosette.Eight years later, Cosette fell in love with the young republican Marius, and the Paris People's Uprising broke out.However, the superintendent who once arrested him was bent on finding fault with him and wanted to find a loophole in Jean Valjean and the scoundrels who harassed him. In order to protect his family, Jean Valjean struggled painfully and helplessly. To protect his family.

In this work, good and evil coexist. Both Jean Valjean and Fantine are just ordinary people. Just because of a "small slip", the people they meet have different attitudes towards their mistakes. Got two completely different fates.

The former received a gift of silverware from the priest, was reborn, and became a good person full of love for the world and useful to society.As for Fantine, if the pair of innkeepers were not so greedy, if the foreman was not so cruel, if someone could help her when she sold her hair and teeth, Fantine would not have fallen deeper into the trap. It is bred out of omnipresent malice.

Not only does he feel a sense of responsibility for Fantine's dismissal, but also because he sees that her experience may be another possible fate for himself, which makes Jean Valjean so committed to fulfilling his promise, and thus makes Co Seth has become the most complete and happiest character in the book.She is beautiful, smart, pure and kind, and is the hope of this "miserable world".

Jean Valjean's original crime in prison was "to save his sister's child from stealing bread", and Fantine's motivation was also to "save the poor child". Their sacrifice was for the next generation.Throughout the book, people as innocent and miserable as Fantine, as cunning and treacherous as the couple in the inn, as cold and stubborn as Javert, all have no place for love in their hearts.

Before finding Cosette, Jean Valjean only had a great love, a motivation of compassion, responsibility, atonement and gratitude.This abandoned, abused, young and innocent child who longs for happiness, if he is properly protected in the future, let Jean Valjean reappear. He has long been forgotten, but he is the most natural human emotion.

Maybe many people think that Jean Valjean was dragged to death by Cosette, and therefore dislike her very much.However, it was not until he saw Jean Valjean smiling at Cosette in the church before he died that the true meaning of the girl's existence was revealed.Because you love others, let yourself be saved.

Cosette is the only bright color in this entire tragic world. She must be innocent and pure, and her image also needs a fairy tale ending, so that she can bring hope and comfort to Jean Valjean and the entire story, so She just wants happiness and love. "

The past few days have been spent reading and discussing the script.

How to deal with it.

There are several days of preparation time.

The script is divided into Chinese and English.

There will be some Chinese actors among them.

"I don't agree. Les Miserables is clearly about tragedy, but in fact it is about the brilliance of human nature.

Speaking of tragedy, it is certainly tragic that Jean Valjean was imprisoned for 19 years for a piece of bread. It is certainly tragic that Cosette was fostered in the inhumane Denardi family since she was a child. It is certainly tragic that Fantine sold her hair and teeth for her daughter and became a prostitute. , it is tragic that Jean Valjean was imprisoned after having completed his redemption.

It's tragic that Marius started to have a disagreement with his grandfather because of different political opinions. It's tragic that a young man died for his ideal country on the revolutionary battlefield. It's tragic that the Paris citizens temporarily defected. It's tragic that Abelin blocked the gun and died for a man who never loved him. tragic.

What is tragic about Les Miserables is that people who don't deserve to die are dead, and people who don't deserve to live are still alive. What's tragic is that kind people are dead, but "bad people" are still alive.The tragedy is that human beings are so insignificant in the torrent of history.The sad thing is that no matter which dynasty or generation you place this story in, this story will still happen.

But we should see that the tragic world is full of human nature. Fantine died for the love of her daughter. Jean Valjean surrendered to prevent an unrelated person from taking the blame for him. Ting's promise is once again in disarray.

Cosette and Marius were the purest love that blossomed in that dark world, and Aibuning also used his own life to prove the saying "Life is precious, love is more expensive", even if Javert is portrayed as Half a villain, but is he really a villain?No, he is a person who is loyal to his career and does not give up his principles easily.

But it was such a person who let Jean Valjean go at the last moment, but because he had betrayed his own principles and was desperate, he threw himself into the river.Just because he is on the opposite side of the protagonist, we cannot say that he is a villain.

So who is the real villain?Some say it was the Denardi couple.Yes, they are powerful, cunning, greedy for life and fear of death, and betray their friends for glory. I remember Hugo described them like this: "There is a type of people who are like shrimps or crabs in the sea. They just retreat when the tide beats them." , never moving forward”.But were they the worst group of people of that era?
I believe not, they are just the epitome of a group of people, one of those people who live at the bottom and want to survive in the cracks of giants.It is precisely these people, not people like Jean Valjean and Marius, who make up the majority of that society.This also led to the ultimate failure of the uprising.

Les Misérables is not meant to write about the evils of human nature, but precisely to write about the beauty of human nature.And when the beauty of human nature is best reflected, it is precisely in the darkest moments. "

Different people have different understandings of scripts.

Soon it was time to start shooting, and they have just started now, and they are relatively cooperative with each other.

Many of these foreigners are actors themselves.

There are also many people who are making movies for the first time.

Not very skilled, need to cooperate with each other.

Foreigners still have some discrimination against Chinese people.

One of them accidentally bumped into someone while walking.

He was directly knocked to the ground by the foreigners.

"what happened?"

Many people immediately gathered around.

There is often some small friction.

With the new army here, the foreigners are not so rampant.

In addition, David’s face is there.

Usually nothing big happens.

But this time it was different. A foreigner broke someone's leg directly. This was a big deal.

For a moment everyone was looking at the solution to this matter.

Foreigners are lawless in Shanghai.

Jiashan is better here. Usually the foreigners here are a group of business people and rarely cause trouble.

Once when foreigners made trouble, Runtu found out about it and killed them directly.

Jiashan's current strength is nearly [-] new troops.

Well-equipped, there is no need to be afraid of foreigners.

Fighting with foreigners, one for one will definitely be no problem.

The main difference between them and foreigners is firepower.It's the difference in weapons and equipment.

As for physical fitness, there is also a gap, but now that we have entered the era of hot weapons, we mainly rely on weapons and equipment.

The new army didn't get used to it and arrested the foreigners directly.

One was caught, and there were other foreigners negotiating with him.

The final result is that he can be released, but the foreigner needs to apologize and pay for medical expenses and mental expenses.

It was a small interlude and the filming of the movie continued.

We need to improve progress.

Make more movies, thinking about capturing the European and American film market.After filming during the day, some more dedicated actors will continue to discuss the script at night.

"Frankly speaking, children in the past could not understand this book. Even if you grow to 28 years old, I am afraid you can only understand it in a literal sense. If you want to read this book deeply from the soul level, you must be 38 or 48 years old. It’s not important. What’s important is the world you understand and the life you experience. Although we can’t experience the nineteenth century again, we can still see Fantine, Cosette, and Ma Luce, even Sheriff Javert and the Thenardiers.

It is precisely because of the hardships of this prison life that Jean Valjean appeared to be full of humanity when he twice took the initiative to reveal his willingness to go to prison under Javert's arrest for many years.Once when he became a sergeant, he took the initiative to clarify his true identity in order to help a convict who was mistaken for him for stealing a fruit tree. Another time was when he asked Javert to help him rescue Marius after rescuing Marius at the barricade. , offering that Javert could arrest him.

It is not difficult to infer from this that Jean Valjean has been walking on thin ice for so many years. Probably every time he saw Cosette, he was thinking that this happiness was stolen, and he might not have saved Marius. , but for Cosette's happiness, he went anyway, and for the sake of his daughter's reputation, he chose to leave silently.It can be seen that throughout the rest of his life, he never forgot his last name, and the source of all humiliation was just a piece of broken glass.

Fantine and Jean Valjean are both people with secrets that cannot be tolerated by the world, but Fantine is unfortunate and her secret is exposed.The Thénardy couple's blackmail letter was discovered by a female worker in the factory. Fantine lost her job and could only mend and wash clothes. This small amount of money could not satisfy the Thénardy couple's continuous big talk.Fantine was helpless and could only give up her bottom line again and again for her daughter, losing her beauty and ultimately her dignity.The reason why Fantine and Jean Valjean met was because she was falsely accused of assault. Javert wanted to arrest her and put her in jail. It was Jean Valjean's testimony that saved her.She would go to jail for beating someone who molested her. Does this coincide with Jean Valjean's 19 years of torture?

Javert said that he grew up in prison and saw too many convicts like Jean Valjean. He had no empathy with criminals. The Jean Valjean we see is wrapped in the glory of humanity, but the Jean Valjean in his eyes is... In his eyes, there may be no difference between Jean Valjean and the Thenardi couple who cheated and cheated.He is a minion of the upper class and regards the law as the criterion of life. He does not have the concept that hard labor prisoners may reform. This is not difficult to explain why when he finally expressed his affirmation of Jean Valjean's humanity , his ending was to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river. "

Many people not only read the script, but also read the novel.

There are also conflicts among actors.

Another one was caught and put in jail.

This time it was a foreigner who molested a woman.

Sent directly to prison.

This news was also shared with Runtu.

Some foreigners came to plead for mercy.

But Runtu ignored them.

You need to be punished properly.

Finding foreigners to film is also a problem.

There are often times when we are not cooperative.

If this script didn't require foreigners to star, otherwise I really wouldn't want foreigners to come.

Mainly because foreigners really look down on Chinese people.

Each of them looks like there are five or six people.

Locked in directly.

Runtu was still thinking about how to deal with it.

Touched the little girl's hand.

It’s not a big deal if it’s in later generations.

Maybe this is the etiquette of foreigners.

But when you do as the Romans do, you can't just do it casually.

Foreigners also know this and go too far.

Let’s not talk about anything else for now, let’s just close it for two days.

There were several foreigners who came to see Runtu.

He asked Runtu directly: "Why did you take this person away?"

"He violated Jiashan's laws and will naturally be punished accordingly."

"Just holding hands."

"But not voluntarily. I will not let this person go. He should receive the punishment he deserves."

No matter what, the person must be left behind.

Nowadays, Jiashan has strong soldiers and horses.

Not afraid of foreigners.

And he also has his own spatial ability, so no matter how many foreigners come, he can take care of them.

They were just asked to film a movie. It was a very ordinary employment relationship and they couldn’t be allowed to mess around.

In Jiashan, you can respect foreigners, but you definitely don't have the same privileges as other places.

They drove away all those who came to beg for mercy and want to be released.

The punishment is to be imprisoned for three months.

Fortunately, it's not a big deal, just a touch.

Imprison foreigners for three months.

David called Runtu.

Runtu didn't give him face.

David didn't take it seriously.

He still values ​​Runtu more.

The cooperation with Runtu has made his status in the David family continue to rise. He can make a lot of money every year, but he dare not offend Runtu.

Runtu had many things he needed in his hands.

And these things can only be provided by Runtu.

The medicinal materials, tea and food provided by others are not as good as Runtu's.

The things Runtu provides can be sold at higher prices overseas.

He is also in the tobacco business.

Nowadays, the largest companies are engaged in the tobacco business, and Jiashan will never allow blatant tobacco business. (End of chapter)
