The word "virtual" not only explains the true nature of the external environment, but also summarizes a certain psychological state of a person. In "Zhuangzi·Human World", there is a dialogue between Yan Hui and Confucius - "I said: 'I dare to ask about Xinzhai.' Zhongni said: 'If you have a will, you don't listen to it and listen to it with your heart, and you don't listen to it with your heart and listen to it with your qi. Listen to the ears, and the heart stops in the abdomen. Qi means that you are empty and treat things. Only the Tao gathers empty and empty is Xinzhai .'"
The "Xinzhai" here refers to the psychological state of the characters abandoning the world's distracting thoughts and understanding the great way of the world. Zhang Lu's creation of the overall switching between color and color in "Spring Dream", and believed that this behavior gives the external environment a form of confusion between reality and reality, and difficult to distinguish between true and false, so as to set up a diverse ending and expand the theme of the film. The characters' inner state, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness have not changed significantly due to the overall change of color. When Zhang Lu really uses colors to visualize the psychological state of the character, it is through the alternation of color and color, that is, color and color do not completely dominate in a certain range.
In "The Mountains and Goose", Zhang Lu cleverly used the monitor 's own colorless characteristics to achieve the smooth alternation of color and color. Using the virtual and real combination of color and color, he accurately depicts two pairs of "lovers" with different psychological states, showing the situation where individuals in a foreign land hidden behind their emotions are wiped out by the ruthless reality.
movie tells the story of the male protagonist Gong Yunying accompanying her divorced female colleague Song Xian to a city called Qunshan, and while staying in B&B , he and the Korean-Japanese B&B owner and his autistic daughter. In the film, the daughter of a homestay owner with autism is unwilling to contact the outside world. The way she observes people is to hide in the dim and dull surveillance room and peek at the guests' every move through various surveillance probes all over the homestay.
From the conversation between Yunying and her party and the homestay owner, it can be concluded that the girl basically does not appear in front of the guests and locks herself in the house all day long. The girl’s psychological state is a passive and disguised "virtual", and external things and emotions have never occupied her heart.
After Yunying entered the homestay, she also became one of the objects of observation for the girl every day. After observing Yunying many times, the girl was attracted to this man who exuded the temperament of a scholar and casual and free, and gradually left the monitoring room and entered a color-based homestay environment to try to contact Yunying. At the end, Yunying invited her to travel, she broke through the restrictions of autism and followed Yunying out.
But the video also implies from beginning to end, the two of them must have ended in vain: Yunying, a native Korean, has a good family background but lacks the care of her parents. He is introverted and does nothing all day long and regards the patriotic poet Yin Dongzhu as an idol, hoping that one day he can write good poems.
He was not troubled by food and clothing diseases and could not truly get rid of the desires of secular men and women. It can be seen from his behavior of trying to touch Songxian's body when he was in the same room as Songxian at the beginning of the work. However, the boss’s daughter is an autistic patient, and the outside world is a dangerous unknown world for her.
There are essential differences in the mental state between the two. Therefore, after Zhang Lu arranged for the two to go out together, he set up an accident, and the two of them had their first trip ended with the boss's daughter being accidentally admitted to the ward.
corresponds to it, which is the ambiguous relationship between the heroine Songxian and the homestay owner. The daily life scenes of this "lovers" are mainly based on colorful pictures, such as walking and talking on the open seaside, expressing their feelings in the darkroom where film is printed. The relationship between the "lovers" seems to be more harmonious, but it ends in a hurry due to different inner states.As a Korean-Japanese, the owner of the B&B chose to give up his career and return to his hometown of South Korea in order to better take care of his autistic daughter. He established a B&B here and was isolated from the outside world. He is the character with the closest psychological state to "virtual" in the entire work.
As a Korean who lives in Korea, Songxian was betrayed by her husband and had no support. After divorce, she chose to travel with her young colleague Yunying from a better family and live in the same room with her young colleague Yunying. However, after seeing the B&B owner who is better than Yunying in all aspects, she quickly heated up with him and abandoned Yunying. She is the character in the whole work whose psychological state is far away from "virtual" and close to "reality".
Although the two were intimate at the beginning, they still felt isolated from the land under their feet, and they both thought they were just a stranger who was parasitized here. Therefore, although the two of them became increasingly strong during their stay and their behavior was ambiguous and similar to that of their lovers, they were still unable to take the final step in the end.
Zhang Lu's emotional subjects that have a difference between "fiction and reality" through color ablation and color. They are representatives of the four characters living in the land of South Korea. Although they have intersections in life, even if they are placed in an environment without interference and allow them to have emotional connections, they cannot be integrated on the psychological and spiritual level. What lies in front of them is an insurmountable gap such as material, identity, and soul.
In "The Mountains and Goose", Zhang Lu also continued the time and spatial narrative method of alternating reality and dreams that he had always liked in the later period. The characters in the work like to ask "Have we seen it somewhere?" This is also like the protagonist in his 2019 work "Fukuoka" and "Are I dreaming?" Zhang Lu tried to make the audience unable to distinguish whether the characters in the story are currently in reality or dreams through the confusion of time and space in the characters and details.
In "Mountains and Gooses", color is the main color of the picture when the characters have doubts about the current scene. To a certain extent, color and color have become the standard for viewers to distinguish between the real scenes and dreams of the movie.
