Chapter 148 The Singularity and the World

After years of development, the film has formed a set of unspoken rules that have become customs, such as the length of the film is generally maintained between 90 minutes and 120 minutes.

From the audience's perspective, 120 minutes is the most suitable viewing experience. If the film is too long, long-term concentration will cause visual and mental fatigue, and there are also some physical problems - going to the toilet will also affect the audience's viewing experience.

However, it is not the case. The main reason for the length of the film can be traced back to the early days of the film development, which was still the era of film. Films used in films can generally accommodate a capacity of 15 minutes, so any movie and TV program at that time was multiples of 15, and the TV series that have been used to cover the current TV series, which is still 45 minutes.

If it is 121 minutes, wouldn’t this be specially used to install this minute with a whole empty plate?

This is all cost. Even if a director does this, the producer will definitely require a minute to be cut. Although it is only one minute or one disk, the total number of movies that have been released in large quantities is quite large.

From the perspective of the theater, when it can attract audiences, the shorter the time, the better. After all, the consumption of the audience follows habits. It is impossible for the theater to charge double the amount of money because the time has become twice, right? The theater may want to do this, and I am afraid the audience will not buy it.

Moreover, the length of the film will also affect the schedule of other movies. Of course, the shorter the theater, the better, because when the ticket prices are basically the same, the more films are shot, the more income it earns. Therefore, the theaters don’t like too long film lengths.

The theater doesn’t like it anymore, so the distribution difficulty increases, and the producer doesn’t like directors to make such long movies.

From the audience, production, distribution, and theater, I have become accustomed to the 120-minute model, which can affect the whole body. Therefore, even in the digital era where hardware restrictions are no longer available, this unspoken rule has been adopted.

"April is Your Lie" is very bad, with only 67% of the filming volume. One is that the director has no reputation and lacks box office appeal. The other is that it lasts for 3 hours and is not kicked out by the theater. Thanks to the producers who tell the media.

When Tian Cong first saw a copy of the sample, he had only one word for it: cut it!

On the fifth day, didn’t the Cang Tree Red be cut for a minute?

But the Cang Shuhong really couldn't cut it. This was the most ideal story in her heart. It was like a puzzle piece that looked like a dream. Without any insignificant part, this dream would appear incomplete, and the gorgeous colors would lose their color.

Even in these three hours, she looked at it over and over again, cutting off all the slightly insufficient areas, and there were still more than 170 minutes left. But in these ten thousand six hundred and twenty-three seconds, even in one second, she couldn't find a place to cut it.

If it is divided into two parts, it will seem too short, and the schedule of the movie is also a problem. For the audience, the viewing experience is also very important. After spending money in, I was told that I had to draw money once to see the ending. Isn’t this a question?

Just like dividing the game into two parts to sell DLC, people only think of cheating money. However, movies are cheating money, cheating money is a kind of strength. Some viewers are willing to cheat money by some people, and Cang Shuhong is obviously not listed here.

The Cang Shuhong is very stubborn. "April is Your Lie" is like a gurgling river that cannot be cut or separated.

After reading it, Tian Cong finally compromised.

No one is not optimistic about it, no one is optimistic about it, because it is like a bunch of dog-tail grass on the roadside, it is a side dish before the battle on the battlefield during the summer season, and it is a foil, and no one pays attention to it at all.

...

The film begins, and with the prologue, the camera arrives at the playground of the campus.

The energetic students were full of youth and sweat.

The camera passed through the football field, basketball court, table tennis table, badminton court... and came to the tennis court near the edge.

"Hey!"

Tsubaki Sawabe, played by Aoyama, stretched out a pleasing arc with his body. He swung the racket in his hand hard, and the galloping tennis ball quickly turned back to the opposite field.

Shizuka Sakaki jumped high, and her slightly elevated hem revealed her vibrant and delicate belly.

The two beautiful girls' active figures on the court are like a clear stream in summer.

At the end of the prologue, Qingshan Qihai pulled the ball with a missed shot and flew away. The tennis ball flew high, and the camera rose up. The tennis ball flew towards the sun. The dazzling light made the camera flash, and it was white. The name of the film "April is Your Lie" gradually emerged from the dazzling white light.

Immediately afterwards, a sound of piano music suddenly appeared in the background, and the camera turned. The picture came to a gorgeous concert hall, the huge concert hall was filled with people, and in the quiet concert hall, people were all focused on their expressions, only the passionate piano music echoed over the concert hall.

The camera turned to the stage, with a piano in the center, and a child sitting in front of the piano.

The child was serious, staring at the piano, his fingers flew over the keys, and the storm-like melody rushed to the audience's eardrums one after another.

When the boiling enthusiasm reached its peak, the picture suddenly darkened and everything suddenly came to an abrupt end.

However, the audience's surging mood was not calmed down, just as if the dream was in full swing, but suddenly woke up from the dream.

Why did it stop suddenly?

As if answering the audience's questions, a "pop" sound of glass breaking suddenly in the darkness. At first, the girl (Sawabe Tsubasa) who shot away the tennis ball again appeared in the picture. She secretly pushed a door open a narrow gap, shrank her eyes and glanced inside.

Following her eyes, the scene in the room appeared in the camera.

It seemed to be a music classroom. In the empty room, there was a piano placed beside the window. A young man fell to the piano, and a tennis ball was lying quietly not far from him. His hand was scattered all over the music score, his head broke a small mouth, and a few drops of blood dripped on the score.

Although there was no place where the tennis ball was knocked away by the girl in the picture, I heard the sound of the glass being broken and saw the picture in front of me. The audience had already imagined that a girl accidentally knocked away the tennis ball and injured the person.

However, it would be a coincidence that a sound of glass breaking was inserted into the sudden halt of the piano piece just now?

Piano, piano score, teenager and interrupted performance, a question lingers in the audience's heart: Is it the child who just played the piano that was the past of this teenager?

The blood-stained piano score and the interrupted performance... What happened to him that interrupted his performance? Could it be related to this tennis girl?

If it is placed in a suspense story, such an opening is mediocre, but this is a romance film, which makes Shiyu Shiyu intimately curious about the subsequent development.
