Special feature of 1905 film network Six years ago, he became a director for the first time. Facing the doubts of the national audience, he brought "Make a scene in Tianzhu" as a guest at today’s film review. This is what he said — —

"Wang Baoqiang, you will still be an actor, and you will be a director? This sentence is unacceptable to me. "
"I don’t think we can kill a stick because one thing is not done well. But working hard can definitely change. "

Six years later, the second film directed by Wang Baoqiang was released. This time, word-of-mouth counterattacked, and Wang Baoqiang’s six-year efforts and sincerity were accepted by the audience through the big screen. Wang Baoqiang said this to the camera — —

"Six years ago, everyone bought tickets because of me, and then took the time to watch" Big Day ",but after I went, I didn’t let the audience meet his own expectations. I felt guilty in my heart and felt very sorry for the audience."
"Reporter: If the final reputation of" The Octagonal Cage "was not very good, you wouldn’t be a director, would you? Wang: Do you think I can do it again? Who voted for you? Who is watching? "
Six years later, he returned to Today’s Film Review with his new work "The Octagonal Cage". Wang Baoqiang thought that there was a feeling that students handed in their homework. This time, he was more practical and very happy.
From "Make a scene in Tianzhu" to "In an octagonal cage", the fate between Wang Baoqiang and "Today’s Film Review" seems to be a dialogue spanning six years.
Six years ago, Wang Baoqiang’s expectation for himself was that he could really direct a work that the audience was satisfied with next time and become a truly qualified director. Now, judging from The Octagonal Cage, it seems that Wang Baoqiang has achieved his goals and ideals in the program six years ago.
When the column group asked Wang Baoqiang again, what would you say to yourself in a few years’ time if you were a guest at Today’s Film Review next time? What do you hope to achieve? Wang Baoqiang’s answer is beyond our expectation.
I thought Wang Baoqiang would talk about his ideal as a director, perhaps it was a word-of-mouth improvement, perhaps it was the yearning for awards. ……

To everyone’s surprise, Wang Baoqiang thought like this: "I hope to see new people come out with more mature and more works next time. Just as we met good directors such as new directors, new directors and new directors at that time, they brought us out. Then I also hope that I can tap many people’s film and television talents and find capable fresh faces. "
Indeed, in addition to Zhang Yiqing, a newcomer who accompanied Wang Baoqiang as a guest in Today’s Film Review for the first time, in The Octagonal Cage, director Wang Baoqiang also played the baseball boy in the documentary as a drama actor in youth. Wang Baoqiang is also using its own strength to help more young people realize their ideals, and is doing something to help others.

Wang Baoqiang is not only a director, but as an actor, from 2003 to now, Wang Baoqiang in our impression is the kind of "stupidity" in "world without thieves" and "It’s too embarrassing for people to walk again"; Maybe it’s still the kind of "epilepsy" inside. This time, in the octagonal cage, the audience saw a more mature and steady Wang Baoqiang. Some viewers commented: "This performance is fierce and has some restraint."

Wang Baoqiang said frankly: "After 20 years from my debut in 2003 to this year’s 2023, I feel that I have become a mature actor in performance. Especially in the octagonal cage, I carefully pondered the performance. For example, the scene of going back to my mother’s house, in fact, before the whole movie was filmed, the movie was already formed in my mind. "


Indeed, when Wang Baoqiang first arrived in Beipiao, he didn’t go home for three or four years and didn’t contact with his family. During the performance of the scene back to mom’s house, Wang Baoqiang cried silently but powerfully.

In addition, Wang Baoqiang used his back to appear in front of the camera many times in the film. The first place is on the battlefield, where he directs the back of children’s training; The second place is that when the protagonist is interviewed, there are great ups and downs in his heart, but he has been restrained. The third place is the last time Sumu won the championship, and he turned away from the back.


When expounding these three back scenes, Wang Baoqiang explained: "I think very clearly that some paragraphs just need to be put away, and they should be given close-ups, but they should not be exposed when they are not. The same is true for lines. Don’t talk if you don’t want to talk. This is what you need to think clearly before shooting. "
The spirit of fighting is to struggle, not admit defeat and not accept fate. I fist at fate and work hard. I want to change myself, win this applause and win this color. The film "The Octagonal Cage" shows the positive life and the negative life of the little people, but why isn’t Wang Baoqiang one of the fighting teenagers?

At present, "octagonal cage" is still showing. If you have a firm and persistent dream, I believe you can also draw unlimited power from the movie!
