This director is very reliable

Chapter 960 Reminder (23)

In fact, after entering the new millennium, films of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea will no longer be allowed to be made!

Even if it is filmed, it will not let you broadcast it...

Worried about being protested by the United States, affecting the relationship between the two sides...

Having said that, will we protest Lao Mei's filming of "Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea"?

I don’t know, but since the 80s, Laomei has seldom shot works on the theme of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea. There have been many works before. "Pork Chop Mountain" and "Army Field Hospital" are very famous.

"Pig Chop Mountain" is actually "Shangganling". The reason why "Army Field Hospital" is famous is because of his translation: "Merry Doctor and Pretty Nurse" (Hong Kong translation)...

After entering the 80s, there were very few filmings in the United States, and the box office is estimated to be poor...

In fact, there are also related works, such as the 2010 documentary "Chosin", which translates to "Changjin Lake".

This "Changjin Lake" is a completely different perspective. They focus on the unyielding survival and continuous efforts of the US military after being besieged, and finally present the story of the US military's successful escape under the siege and interception of the volunteers;

But what is interesting is that this also reflects from the side the peak combat effectiveness of the volunteers' light infantry under the existence of weapon generation gap and almost no supplies.

In 2016, a documentary called "The Battle of Changjin Lake" was broadcast in the United States.

The film interviewed more than 20 veterans who participated in the Korean War. It is a rare story about this epic conflict from the perspective of defeat, and it restores the tragic battlefield in a more realistic way. Nevertheless, they are Americans after all. On the basis of the basic standpoint of American soldiers as the protagonists, they still tried their best to weaken the fact of defeat...

However, after the release of "Changjin Lake" and "Shuimen Bridge" in 2021, the old beauty broke the defense——

For those European and American people who don’t like reading and even think that the earth is flat, movies are almost the only window for them to understand the history of the world. Many Western people would think that the Korean War was fought as described in "Changjin Lake" and "Shuimen Bridge".

How can that work?

Therefore, a movie describing the Korean War was urgently shot, called "Loyalty", which is expected to be released on October 2022, 10, before Halloween.

American war films are very political, and there are two major strategies. The first strategy is that if the United States fought the war well and was very motivated, then the film should be shot from a grand perspective, describing the glory of the battle and describing the collective strength of the US military. powerful combat power.

The second routine is that if the U.S. military’s fights are not very good-looking, and the powerful collective combat power of the U.S. military cannot be highlighted from a macro perspective, then shoot from a micro perspective, and by describing the love and sacrifice of a few small people, exaggerate the horror and cruelty of war , in order to highlight the benevolence and morality of the United States.

The Korean War was the first war in which US generals signed a peace treaty without victory. The US military would rather mention the most costly battle in World War II (Pearl Harbor) than the Korean War, so there is definitely no way to shoot from a grand perspective.

Then follow the tone of "Saving Private Ryan"!
Who was saved in the Korean War?How to highlight their love and sacrifice, how to exaggerate the horror and cruelty of war?

The plot is like this: During the Battle of Changjin Lake, the [-]st Division of the U.S. Marine Corps was besieged by the Chinese Volunteers. The protagonist, an ace fighter pilot, was in danger...

That's right, in 1950, Black Brown was a US military pilot, and he was also an ace pilot...

Really bullying the old American people for not learning history!

——During World War II, there was a military order in the United States. Blacks were prohibited from participating in front-line combat missions. They were only allowed to work as cooks and handymen...

If you read the preview, you will think it is nonsense—the volunteers actually have air supremacy: Brown was attacked by overwhelming artillery fire from the volunteers, and the dense anti-aircraft artillery directly formed a barrage in the air, knocking Brown down abruptly.

After the protagonist Brown crashed, he fell within the control of the Volunteer Army.

Then how should the film be made?How to highlight love and tragedy?

Save people.

The trailer popped up a very loving chicken soup for the soul-How far would you go to save a friend, translated into Chinese: How far would you go to save a friend?
——This is the plot guessed based on the trailer, and it is estimated that it is close to ten.

By the way, the trailer describes the powerful firepower network of the Volunteer Army in detail: the Air Force can gain air supremacy, the U.S. Army, which can be overwhelmed by artillery, dare not move, and there are still more than a dozen armored divisions...

Otherwise, how to highlight the ability of Brown and his group?

In short: anti-Chinese drama!

No, Guan Hu also filmed "King Kong River", that guy gave the US military a good meal...

Now let's shoot again?

Director Han said: "From time to time, the international situation is changing...you can make preparations first!"

"...It's hard!"

"What's difficult? I remember you and Lan Xiaolong have been preparing for it?"

"That's a TV series..."Winter and the Lion"...It's not suitable for a movie adaptation!"

"Winter and the Lion" is so miserable that you can't see it can win this battle, but in the end it drives the Americans away...

Filmed according to the original work, the editorial and director team will be scolded for being more concerned than others, and it is even impossible for "Shuimen Bridge" to be released during the Spring Festival...

In addition to destroying the polar bear regiment, the battlefield is basically objectively sending to death, sending to death and then sending to death, but not keeping a few people in the United States, blowing up a bridge, all our heroes are dead, and the Americans can still build and run...

For Chinese New Year, you show this to the people of the whole country?

In addition, at the end of the book, the Americans did not take off their hats to salute the ice sculpture martyrs, but flamethrowers!
That's horrible…

"...You have to be mentally prepared. I guess the higher-ups may give orders directly. If you don't shoot, some people want to shoot!"

"Success, I'll go back and think about it."

……

Shen Changlin has been very busy these past few years, shooting movies one after another, rarely taking a break, let alone communicating with his superiors...

"No one can say for sure about the current situation. Movies like "The God of Medicine" should be filmed less in the future..."

"Well...Actually, if you ask me to shoot, I may not be able to find a suitable subject."

"I heard from them that the third part of "Big Man" is stuck?"

"Well, it's stuck, but it should be released soon... After all, this is a cooperation with Golden Shield Films and Television!"

In "Big Shot 3: Sweeping Darkness", the prototype character Sun Xiaowrap has not been arrested yet...

The whole case has not yet been reviewed clearly. At this time, a movie based on Sun Xiaobao is released?
"After the shooting of "Sweeping Darkness", let's stop the series of "Big Shot"..."

"it is good!"

Shen Changlin agreed without hesitation, without even asking why.

Han Dong continued: "I heard that you have taken several copyrights of Zijin Chen?"

"Yes, "High IQ Crime (Murder of Officials)", "Long Night", "Bad Boys"...I think Zijin Chen is not very good at selling copyrights, so he sold the adaptation rights for one million yuan!"

Shen Changlin bought it in a package.The three books cost less than 200 million in total...

Han Dong asked: "Then have you found a good director?"

""Bad Boy" continues to ask Lu Xing to direct, "Long Night" I want to do it myself..."

"Do it yourself? You want to direct it yourself?"

"Then... that's not the case, I will be the producer..."

"Bad Boy" is "The Hidden Corner", and its reputation and popularity are not bad. In comparison, "Long Night is Difficult to Understand" has a good reputation, but the click-through rate is a bit poor...

By the way, "Long Night" is "The Silent Truth"...
