What is a roadie? It's the one who runs the show. They are also actors, but their roles are about equal to nothing. To put it simply, in this big, vast world, all human beings are roadrunners. The following is my compilation of "I am a roadrunner" afterthought, welcome to read.
"I am Roadrunner" Afterthought 1
You can't always rely on me, sooner or later you have to go out and make your own way - "I am Roadrunner"
Artemisia (the elder sister of the two sisters) loves to dance and hopes to become a dancer, but she doesn't even dare to dance in the neighborhood square because of her shyness or lack of confidence. Her sister's departure is a blow to her. She has always taken care of her sister as her own duty, but now that she has left her sister and is floating alone in Hengdian, which is not her dream place, this simple fear is very aptly expressed. Sister's words also stimulated her, "you can not always rely on me, sooner or later you have to go out to break through," at this time only to find this seemingly strong girl's soft underbelly, the desire to become a professional dancer, she did not even dare to dance in front of people.
That night, late at night, she summoned up the courage to run to the square, which was empty (courage is also gradual, it is impossible to all of a sudden to the square full of people to jump). She began to dance, and can not evaluate that the dance is beautiful, but Er Dongsheng will be it shot thrilling, the square became a stage with shining lights, Artemisia danced to her heart's content, like about to be discovered about to become famous idol drama plot. A friend who came along muttered, "Ah ah, I think it's going to be seen by some director." I hope it doesn't work out that way, life is never so idolatrous, because of a dance you'll rise to stardom. Before that you need to go through one small role after another, see every opportunity that comes your way, grab it, and when the opportunity doesn't come, you have to keep up the hard work to grab it when it does come, just like the difference between Wang Zhao and Wan Guopeng. Luckily, the director didn't handle it that way. When the dance was over and the lights receded, Artemisia lay exhausted on the ground in a big shape. It was still a square, and there was no one watching, let alone a big director. So this dance is just a big artemisia a person's thing, is she with their own struggle, over their own this pass. There is still a long way to go after this. What awaits her is not discovery or overnight fame. After that, she would need to work harder and focus more on building her dance moves, she would need to run many dragon sets, and then maybe one time she would be remembered by a director and would be asked to play a role, with lines, and she became an actress, and maybe after that, she would become the main character of a microfilm, or get an important role in a TV series. But it doesn't end there.
Both Wei Xing and Shen Kai in the movie are stuck at this stage, just as miserable. They thirst for a bigger stage, a higher income. Eventually Wei Xing goes to Beijing, looking for better opportunities as an actor. How will he turn out? No one knows.
Shen Kai's wife is pregnant, and he needs to choose between acting and his wife, and he chooses acting. Under the huge blow of his wife's departure, the performance of this very important role for him breaks him down, and this is the most depressing part of the play, where he repeatedly recites awkward lines in Mandarin under the watchful eyes of dozens of people, to the point that he loses his own will, and eventually suffers a nervous breakdown. When I thought this would be the most sad ending, the plot once again reversed, he returned to his wife like a small child, obediently go to the toilet, eat, and his wife with a big belly looked at this time she actually showed a happy smile. On second thought, this result may not be worse than before.
These people may have had that moment of opportunity to come, once thought they could do nothing, can have everything, do everything. But in life, there's no such thing as success, and holding on means everything.
"I am a roadrunner" aftermath two
Today I watched a movie called "I am a roadrunner", said about the story of Hengdian's crowd of actors.
Everyone who goes to Hengdian to work is there with a dream. When they first set foot on that piece of land, every one of them believes that their dreams will shine there. They passionately devoted themselves to acting with their dreams.
Day in and day out, day in and day out, the masses of actors, day in and day out, the firm belief in the masses of actors in this large group of filling, repeat. People get tired and so do dreams. Dreams by the real life step by step pressing, step by step pressure, and finally is the person first to the reality of the compromise, do not know, is the dream is the first to wave the white flag.
Into the Hengdian this complex and full of miracles, many people who give up their dreams can not leave, because they put most of their life's dreams are invested in this place, although this is a sad place for them, but also their dreams from the buds to wither in the place, it is difficult to let go of the withered dream. No dream of labor just to survive, here many people began to labor for three meals a day, in order to save enough to leave the capital and labor, bullying, making a fuss, pulling the relationship, subterfuge, sell dignity, etc., which are the invisible rules of survival here, many people abide by, and many people are still struggling.
The end of the movie is my favorite. The hero is also a dream chaser, and his career seems to have taken a turn for the better after harvesting sweet love, but in Hengdian, a dreamlike place, there are as many dreams growing every day as there are broken dreams. I'm glad to see the hero choosing real life for the one he loves. Maybe he will regret for years for losing the chance to shine, but he will never complain too much about the beautiful real life.
Happiness is intangible and different for everyone. Only by grasping the happiness in front of you can you be qualified and able to talk about ideals and the future. The people who are stubborn and over-ambitious will only lose the opportunity to have happiness, then the God of fortune will still favor him? The first thing you need to do is to get rid of all the things that you have to do to get to the next level.
Last night, I watched the movie "I am a passer-by" on the Internet, reflecting the joys and sorrows of some of the mass actors in Hengdian Film and Television City, and more importantly, from a side of the youth of the contemporary longing for a better ideal and the struggle in the merciless reality.
Everyone has a dream, and for young people, it's a dreaming age. A person's dream can be various, can be magnificent and colorful, can be ridiculous, but do not do when the actor's dream. Although being an actor seems to be a colorful and rewarding career, it is in fact a treacherous and rugged path, and very few people are able to pass through it to reach the other side of the bright side of the river. It requires not only talent, strength and personal effort, but also luck and even unspoken rules and other nonsense.
But there are some people who don't believe in this, who want to be big stars. Not only the Beijing Film Academy, those who are full of artistic cells of the handsome men and women all day long, even the Hengdian Film and Television City, these mass actors are also eager to try, eager to jump over the Dragon Gate, like Stephen Chow from the "Eagle Shooting Heroes" in the "Sung Bingjia" into the "Tong Pak Fu point Qiuxiang," in the "Tong Pak Fu". But what are the chances of that? But what are the chances of that? How difficult is the process? Maybe they think that when the actor than to take the college entrance examination when the college students easy, but the real life is often the college students such as the river of crucian carp countless, can be from the mass actor or the northern movie graduates in the leap to the famous actor is very rare.
In this way, those young people in Hengdian Film City, supported by the unattainable dream, scrimping and sweating, losing dignity while working as a mass actor, while looking for the opportunity to become a butterfly. In the end, however, most of them ended in regret and failure. Especially Shen Kai, many young actors are Kai for the honor, think it is a successful figure, Shen Kai even for the dream to give up the family, let his girlfriend love him to abort the baby, but just when he fought for the role of the minister of the near success of the moment, but even nervous can not even memorize the lines, by the director-! -The director of the movie, Chen Kaige, rejected him with a single sentence. Later, Shen Kai went crazy, draped in a bed sheet on the street and kept saying the lines that he couldn't remember in the theater. Perhaps he cared too much about this rare opportunity. Perhaps he saw this performance as a turning point that would change his life's destiny. In fact, even if he succeeds in playing the minister, what can he do? Can he be sure that he will become a star in the future? It's not easy! It's harder than ever to make a name for yourself in a movie and TV industry full of talented people. Of course, the theme of the movie is positive and distinctive, that is, to tell people, as long as there is a dream, as long as they keep struggling and working hard, there will always be a chance for the old man of destiny, and even let Wan Kwok Pang finally get the appreciation of the famous director ready to be sent to Beijing for training. However, this is just a movie, it is fiction. The real reality is that there is no such thing as an easy way out.
In spite of this, I still like this movie, because it spreads positive and healthy things, is positive energy, is to encourage young people to be diligent, serious, go forward to pursue their dreams or ideals, even if they can not be realized, at least in the old age, you can be heartless and shameless to say that, after all, I have struggled, and this life is not regrettable. In addition, there are some lines in the movie that are memorable and enlightening, such as "What are you doing in Hengdian if not to be an actor?" "The key is to take action. How can you realize your dreams if you sit there and talk all day long?" These words, for each of us, are very educational.
In short, life is like this, the struggle may not necessarily successful, but do not struggle will certainly not be able to succeed.
