After interviewing hundreds of actresses, the director finally let Li Xinyun, who was not too famous and could not talk about box office appeal, to play the female number one.
A sexy dance step, a four-eye exchange on the balcony, the two are destined to never be separated... After the neighbor boy Zhao Ye peeped at Dada's dancing posture on the roof, he had a crush on this plump, wild girl and decided to chase her down. At the same time, Dada lives with her stepmother and lives well, but her stepmother's lover uncle ignores her all day long, and verbal and physical harassment continues... On the one hand, the clean lust of adolescence, on the other hand, the dirty heart of the adult world, Dada can only choose to run away with Zhao Ye to find his mother, and in the process, there are series of cruel or warm and interesting episodes of youth, but when the two go home again, what awaits them is a "rite of passage" of killing and escaping.
After the film "Dada" was released in China, the film's female number one Li Xinyun also entered the vision of ordinary audiences.
For Li Xinyun, "Dada" for her is not only a female number one, but she is also one of the screenwriters of the film. Recalling the days when the script was made, Li Xinyun used "purgatory" to describe it. Every day, director Zhang Yuan and the three screenwriters basically spend time in the midst of anxious ideas and painful quarrels. The four people often express their opinions and fight and debate all night for the treatment of a certain plot. When the movie was finished, there was a chat, and the male number one Li Xiaofeng actually said to Li Xinyun, do you know, when discussing the script, you are too stubborn, sometimes I really want to take a knife to kill you.
After interviewing hundreds of actresses, the director finally let Li Xinyun, who was not too famous and could not talk about box office appeal, to play the female number one. After learning this news, Li Xinyun was nervous and excited, and for a period of time he often had insomnia at night, and he slept for two or three hours at most. She didn't know why the director chose her—of course, she learned later that the director wanted an ordinary girl who wasn't too famous and wasn't so eye-catching in the crowd.
When trying on the costume, Dada, played by Li Xinyun, made a total of three looks. The first two stylists were all beautiful and fashionable, but the director was not satisfied. The stylist did a third, and this time there was basically no makeup – this time the director was satisfied.
But Li Xinyun felt that not wearing makeup was a bit too much, and it didn't look very beautiful. So two days before filming, every morning she was always alone in the room to secretly get some foundation for her face. When the actual shooting was made, the director did not say anything. At that time, Li Xinyun also secretly played straight music, thinking that the director did not see it. On the third day, when I was filming a scene of washing my face, because I was afraid of losing the foundation, Li Xinyun randomly smeared her face twice to make a show. At this time, the director finally couldn't bear it, and shouted loudly behind the monitor, Li Xinyun, you wiped the makeup on my face!
While still discussing the script, one day Li Xinyun was packing up her things at home when she suddenly heard a particularly nice tune on the radio. As she was packing up her things and listening to the music, she randomly twisted to the rhythm of the song and suddenly thought, what if she let Dada dance in the film? The next day, when everyone was discussing the script, she excitedly told everyone about this idea. Who knows that everyone has a look of disdain, saying that we are not a song and dance film, what kind of dance do you dance. Li Xinyun's mood was suddenly extremely dim. But two months later, when filming this scene in Wuhan, the director suddenly said Li Xinyun, you didn't mean to dance with the song at that time, let people find the song you said and try to dance. Later, this dance section became the most brilliant place for many viewers.
There is also a scene in the film where Dada witnesses a friend's wedding and then returns home drunk and lost. Before the start of filming, Li Xinyun thought that how to act in a drunken scene did not really have a bit of a drunken state like. So Li Xiaofeng helped her buy a bottle of Great Wall dry red at the commissary near the shooting scene. At that time, the weather in Wuhan was the hottest time of the year, and the red wine expired again, so when the cork was opened, the wine was a bit sloppy. But Li Xinyun still closed his eyes and drank two large cups in a row. Soon it was dinnertime and she drank two bottles of beer. After that, Li Xiaofeng got her two glasses of foreign wine from somewhere... But Li Xinyun was stunned that he was not drunk. When the sixth article was filmed, the director asked the lighting department to adjust the lights, and Li Xinyun walked to a corner alone and found a small horse to sit on, but as soon as he sat up, he fainted. When they woke up the next morning, everyone told Li Xinyun that last night she was drunk and made a big fuss on the set, and she would beat whoever walked in front of her. Later, the four strong men in the crew got her into a broken bamboo bed and carried her back to the hotel.
