Chapter 387 - It's Better Than Human Acting

The lights in the theater were turned off, and in the midst of the relaxing orchestra, black subtitles floated, the names of the people behind the scenes, but the representatives of the theater didn't care.

The only thing that lifted everyone's spirits was Zhang Xiuming's name. Zhang Xiuming was a movie star.

The only thing that stood out more than Zhang's name was the word "fish envy" written on the screenwriter's column, a name that has gone from being unfamiliar to being familiar to some people in the film industry for two films.

The orchestra stops abruptly.

At the same time, a slightly childish voice-over sounds: "Hachi is very mysterious, no one knows where he comes from, maybe from a dog shelter, maybe from someone's car, maybe from a foreign airport, maybe from an unknown city ....... "

The darkness gradually dissipates.

In the picture that becomes clearer, a child with red lips and white teeth is speaking on stage, and on the blackboard behind the child are four crooked words.

Faithful Dog Buster.

The camera then pans around.

Blue truck on the highway with many cages, the top cage is a young dog, and the scenery flies by as the truck runs.

Close-up of the dog's eyes.

Innocence in purity.

The child's voice is serious: "That rainy night, Hachi appeared at the train station in the town where my grandfather lived.

Cut to camera.

Wet train station, people coming and going in the dim light.

The dog cage falls to the ground on a moving truck, and a small hole falls out of the not-so-sturdy cage, through which the dog emerges.

No passerby pays attention to the dog.

The dog's eyes were dazed and frightened.

Perhaps this is a strange description, but it's hard for people to see the dog's mind through its eyes.

But for some reason, when people saw the dog's eyes, they were sure to feel that little emotion of panic and dazedness.

In an instant, many people's hearts were filled with an inexplicable love and compassion.

The dog ran aimlessly, back and forth, seemingly avoiding the crowd, but then suddenly stopped in a light wrapped in an elongated silhouette.

A pair of legs appears in the shot.

The camera moves upward to reveal a handsome, mature face of a man who is talking on a cell phone.

"No need to pick me up, I'm walking back ...... I miss you too."

All the cinema representatives could recognize the actor as Zhang Xiuming, but no one was in the movie.

When Zhang Xiuming appears in a movie, he seems to be a character in the movie by default.

This is the talent of a movie star, which naturally allows the audience to forget reality.

Hang up the phone, one person, one dog, look at ......

"It really is a feature film."

Sitting in the eighth row in front of the big screen, Yeh Hongyu gently raised her eyebrows, "The opening is trying to create an atmosphere from the soundtrack to the camera."

"What atmosphere?"

Next to him, Yang An said softly.

Ye Hongyu laughed, "The sensational atmosphere, if nothing else, this movie will be in sensational mode at some point, and the writer and director will use their best efforts to try to impress the audience."

Usually Ye Hongyu doesn't talk at movies.

But considering that Yang An is a newcomer who needs to be trained, she explained a little: "If you are finally moved, the movie will be a success."

Yang An confidently said, "My tear point is quite high."

Ye Hongyu was undisputed.

When it comes to high tears, she is a trained professional.

No matter how touching the movie is, she can remain silent.

Unless ......

In between their conversations, the movie is still a tepid narrative.

The main character, played by Jang Soo Ming, tries to take the dog to the security guard at the station, but is rejected by the guard, who explains.

"I'm sorry I'm a little allergic to dog hair, but you can take the dog back with you, and if someone comes to the door, I'll let Professor An know."

It turns out that Zhang Xiuming plays the role of a professor.

Because Professor An can't bear to throw away his dog, he has to take it home, which also causes his wife's discontent.

In the process, both the dog's natural cuteness and the relationship between Professor An and his wife brought a warm feeling to people.

You can see that this is a very loving couple.

They love each other so much that even though the woman doesn't like the dog, she acquiesces to Professor An's decision to keep the dog in the house for a while, waiting for the owner to claim it.

But the lady also had a request, she did not allow the dog to stay in the house.

Prof. An had no choice but to keep the dog outside.

Then some viewers noticed that there was an abandoned kennel in the courtyard of Professor An's house.

Why is there a kennel?

The representatives of the cinema, as spectators, had no way of knowing that this seemed to be a hint.

After a long, sweaty day of work, Professor Ang finally repaired the kennel and placed the dog in it.

As he turned to go back into the house, Professor An heard the dog bark softly.

He turned around and looked at the dog, but there seemed to be a hint of distress in the dog's eyes.

Aggrieved?

Once again, the audience is moved by this amazing feeling, and they feel their hearts melt, wanting to hold the dog in their arms for comfort.

They couldn't imagine that they could see the emotion in a dog's eyes - the

At the train station, the dog's eyes were filled with confusion and panic, as well as a hint of fear.

At that time, people thought it was a wonderful coincidence formed by the director's handling of the light and his use of the camera.

At that moment, the hint of distress in the dog's eyes was not deceiving, and made us realize that perhaps the emotions revealed by the dog were not a coincidence of the camera and the light.

The little guy is really frustrated!

The representatives of the theater lines who are already acquainted whispered.

"I can't believe I saw acting in the eyes of a dog that is even better than many young actors!"

"Where did you find this dog, it's so fitting and appropriate, I want a dog like this."

"A dog like this is a natural way to gain an audience."

"The dog must not know how to perform, maybe this is the dog's true feelings."

"What to do, it's so cute!"

"I really like this dog."

"......"

In the ninth row, the corner of Yi Chenggong's mouth gently curled up.

As he had predicted, the audience fell in love with Hachi as quickly as possible.

It's just that this group of people would never have thought that the dog's acting was so good because of fish envy.

If not for the fact that so many people in the cast had witnessed it, it would have been hard for Yi Chenggong to imagine that someone could get the dog to act with the cast.

"I'm sorry, I'll have to humiliate you tonight. I hope someone will come to pick you up tomorrow."

Professor An smiled bitterly to the dog, then turned around and went back to the house.

The camera changes to black, white and gray.

This is the perspective of the dog, who is cowering in his kennel, looking out through the exit.

The lonely courtyard is empty, except for the moon high in the night sky and the chirping of unknown insects in the darkness.

This moment.

The viewer's heart is filled with an intense heartache for the dog and dissatisfaction with the unkindness of the mistress.
