Zhang Yimou 2008 Impression

After watching the documentary "Zhang Yimou's 2008" in a hurry, I was deeply touched. It is not easy to finish a masterpiece. Before, my understanding of Zhang Yimou was limited to a few works. I caught Zhihu as the controlling director from a few words, and this documentary made me really know this person.

On August 8, nine years ago, I just finished the college entrance examination and my factory was on holiday. Our whole family packed melon seeds and drinks and made a noise around the TV. In order to let the workers who didn't go home watch the opening ceremony, we also put a TV set in the factory. I heard from a friend that the small county town was surprisingly quiet that night, and the vendors who shouted to sell ice porridge biscuits closed their stalls early. I think this is the so-called "empty lane"! Zhang Yimou lived up to everyone's expectations. The opening ceremony was a great success, and many foreigners got to know China again.

According to the documentary, there is a 30-meter corridor between the rostrum of the Bird's Nest and the office. For a whole year, the old man passed through this corridor at two or three in the morning every day. Compared with ordinary people, he has a serious lack of sleep, and the players are very worried about his health. He smiled and replied, "I'm fine. I'm the most resistant in the crew." "Heart Road" says that everyone's application problems in life are different. Some people come to transcend emotions, some to control wealth, some to transcend poverty, and some to transcend fear. I think Zhang Yimou spent his whole life creating good works of art.

After the planning scheme was passed, Zhang Yimou told the assistant, "Now I can restore all the scenes of the opening ceremony in my mind." At that time, I felt that the pattern of Zhang Yimou was much higher than that of other members of the team. This "high pattern" is inseparable from his years of film production training. Zhang Yimou has high standards and requirements for everyone in the team, and the head teacher of the dance beauty was cried by Zhang Yimou; Eiko Ishioka, the hired fashion designer, couldn't stand Zhang Yimou's repeated vetoes and was admitted to the hospital. The opening song by musician Zhang Jigang was rejected by Zhang Yimou. Zhang Jigang was angry, but he rewrote it carefully. He said that he had seen a lot of art, and since he said there was a problem, there must be a problem somewhere. I saw the barrage saying that this team assembled a group of outstanding people, and everyone followed the old man to open an opening ceremony, which definitely became the elite of all walks of life.

Mencius said, "It is good for the world". With the prosperity of the times and the external conditions to realize the ideal, we must realize our own life value. Zhang Yimou said in an interview that many films can be made in a lifetime, but there is only one Olympic Games. A good time and a capable person, Zhang Yimou gave full play to his value at the opening ceremony, and we were fortunate to watch the best opening ceremony since the last Olympic Games.
