What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

Chapter 95 The Epic Story
The night in Spring City at the end of August is already a little cool. When working during the day and resting at night, Yang Shu likes to sit in the People's Square in front of the hotel and enjoy some incense.

Ning Song sat with him like this when he came last time, but now it's replaced by Liu Man and Jiang Shiyu.

After dinner every day, one of the two of them would always ask, "What are you doing at night?"

If Yang Shu said it was okay, they would come to the room to chat, and if they asked where they were going, almost without exception, someone would follow up and say, "I will go too."

Everyone has nothing to do during the long nights away, and Yang Shu can understand, so he also calls them when he goes out for a walk.

Although it was past nine o'clock, there were quite a lot of people in People's Square, and there were people playing music everywhere.

The so-called square is actually a huge turntable park in the center of the street, and people nearby like to come here for activities.

Yang Shu pointed to the Soviet Army Monument in the middle of the square and said: "There are three such monuments in Harbin, Changchun, and Shenyang. When the Soviet Army sent troops to the northeast to fight against the Japanese Kwantung Army, they commemorate the fallen soldiers."

"In the 90s, there was a well-known lunatic active in this square. He liked to stand in front of the monument and give speeches. He invented a sentence and spread it all over the country."

"What?"

"Give some sunshine and it will be brilliant."

Jiang Shiyu laughed: "A lunatic said this first? Who said it?"

"Ning Song."

Liu Man also laughed: "You are so honest, you will believe what Ning Song says."

Yang Shu found a bench and sat down: "Believe it or not is the same thing. The ability to tell stories is very important. Later, someone extended this sentence and added a lot of words at the end: Give some sunshine and you will be brilliant, give some moonlight and you will be bright." Romance, if you give it some darkness, you will die, if you give it some darkness, it will flood, if you give it a broken bowl, you will have food, if you give it a broken nest, you will really lay eggs."

Liu Man and Jiang Shiyu smiled and sat down one by one, continuing to rhyme: "The witticisms of the people from the Northeast are also really powerful."

Yang Shu continued: "This sentence quickly became popular, so someone wrote a [-]-episode TV series under the name "Give Some Sunshine" starring Ma Ling, Huang Gexuan, Li Chengru, and Yingda. I wrote a song in one sentence, also called "Give Some Sunshine and It Will Shine"."

"I think your ability to tell stories is even better," Jiang Shiyu took the opportunity to praise him: "Isn't our job just to tell people stories?"

Yang Shu really likes to tell stories, he enjoys being listened to by others.

"This square was built during the Puppet Manchukuo period. It was originally called Datong Square. After the Soviet occupation, it was renamed Starling Square. The National Government took over and changed it to Zhongzheng Square. After liberation, it was changed to People's Square, and it has become a battlefield more than once."

He pointed to a European classical Doric colonnade granite building on the opposite side of the square, with signs of ICBC, ABC, and PBC on it: "That place used to be the Central Bank of Manchukuo, which was built by the Japanese, and it cost a lot of money to build it. When Ben surrendered, there was still a corner that was not completed. The Nationalist Government and the People's Government had no money to repair it, and it was not completed until the end of the 80s.

During the War of Liberation, the Northeast Field Army surrounded Changchun. The bank was the headquarters of the National Army’s Northeast Bandit Suppression. Many historical movies were shot there. "

This Liu Man knows: "I've seen "The Great Battle". The president is in the basement below the bank. At that time, the soldiers of the national army shot into the sky on the top of the bank, waiting to surrender."

Yang Shu smiled and nodded: "That's right, at that time other national army units had already surrendered, and the more famous one was the 60th Army of the National Revolutionary Army."

"Oh?"

"Zhang Yu, who starred in "Love in Lushan Mountain" with the head of Guo Minkai, also has a masterpiece called "Friends", have you heard of it?"

"How come I haven't heard of it?" Liu Man was a little dissatisfied: "We have also studied film history in the Academy of Art, so how could we not know "Friends", the story of General Cai E and Xiaofengxian, the famous theme of the same name? The song was sung by Li Guyi."

"Then I'm asking too much. You all know that after watching the movie, Cai E was the governor of the Yunnan Army. Later, he led the Yunnan Army's National Protection Campaign against Yuan Shikai, but died at a young age.

After his death, the Yunnan Army went through several changes, and finally the remaining 4 people were organized into the 60th Army of the National Revolutionary Army. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, they were stationed in Changchun. "

"Then they surrendered as soon as the Liberation War started?"

"The 60th Army's combat effectiveness is very weak. They are local miscellaneous names in the national army. They are discriminated against. They have the worst equipment and the lowest treatment. Even the chairman of the committee calls them "Bear Army".

After the surrender of the 60th Army, it was reorganized into the 50th Army. There was no change from the commander to the soldiers. The original team was reorganized and trained.

The 50th Army has completely changed, and the combat is extremely tenacious. The soldiers of the whole army fought for 50 days and nights on both sides of the Han River.

Among them was a soldier named Wang Ying, who followed the 60th Army and surrendered. When the company commander was killed and the instructor was seriously injured and the entire company was almost killed, he continued to fight until the last moment. He was the only one left on the battlefield. The radio called "" Shoot me," then fire the blaster to kill the enemy. "

Liu Man was stunned: "Aren't you Wang Cheng from the movie "Heroes"?"

"That's right, because this army was drawn by Changchun. Later, Changchun Film Studio filmed the movie "Heroes and Daughters" based on this deed."

"It turned out to be like this," Jiang Shiyu sighed: "People's spiritual power is too strong, and Ning Song told you this story?"

"No, I've always been interested in war history. I used to be in college... when I was studying in school, I thought that one day I could make a movie about war and full of stories."

Liu Man also sighed: "If you use your narrative perspective to show the hero Wang Cheng's growth process from a modern perspective, it will indeed be more shocking."

Jiang Shiyu might find it difficult to connect Yang Shu with war movies for a while: "But don't you like love themes, this is far from war."

"Men, I always like to shoot stories about soldiers, but the market doesn't need it now, maybe in a few years."

Yang Shu likes the story of blood and fire, but it is not easy to tell it well. Feng Xiaogang's "Assembly Number" a few years ago was well shot, but there was too much resentment.

Later, "Changjin Lake" co-produced by Kai Ge and Tsui Hark was also okay, with Hollywood-style narrative and big scenes, the box office can prove everything.

In two months, Sister Tao has to fly to London to shoot Jackie Chan's "British Showdown" after filming "Ode to Joy". Jackie Chan is shooting this film at the same time, and he is also traveling between China and the UK. "Railway Flying Tiger" tells the story of the railway guerrillas, and the heroine is Xu Fan, Feng Xiaogang's wife.

The story of the railway guerrillas is really charming. Later, teacher Fan Wei and Zhang Hanyu of "Assembly" also acted in a version called "Railway Heroes".

In fact, Yangshu also has a story about the railway guerrillas, and it has been brewing for a long time in the last life.

"Everyone knows the story of the railway guerrillas, but do you know where these people went after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War?"

Both Liu Man and Jiang Shiyu shook their heads: "Who knows, victory is right."

"It took me a long time to check a lot of information. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the railway guerrillas were disbanded. Most of them were incorporated into the East China Field Army's Lunan Military Region Special Task Force. Later, these people were reorganized into the 47th Division of the Luzhong South Column and participated in the Menglianggu Battle. .”

Liu Man also watched a lot of old movies: "I know that Meng Lianggu is the movie "Red Sun" that wiped out the reorganized 74th Division and killed Zhang Lingfu."

"That's right, the 47th Division of the Shandong Central South Column participated in the Huaihai Campaign to liberate Jinan. At this time, a national army unit surrendered. It was the 96th Army of the National Revolutionary Army."

"Is it also the same Xiong army as the 60th army of the national army?"

"This is even more bearish. This unit first followed the Feng family from the Northwest Army, and then defected to the National Army to follow Lao Jiang. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, they simply surrendered to the Japanese army and followed Lao Wang. Now they have surrendered again after a dozen."

"But what does this have to do with the railway guerrillas?"

"In the future, I plan to write a story about a young man who joined the railway guerrillas during the Anti-Japanese War and grew up in battle. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he was first incorporated into the Secret Service Regiment, and then entered the 47th Division of the Shandong Central South Column. After the surrender of the 96th National Army, according to the instructions of his superiors Merge with it and form the 35th Army, the designation is the 35th Division of the 104th Army."

"The railway guerrillas merged with this bear army?"

"In fact, the railway guerrillas and the 96th Army had a deep hatred. During the Anti-Japanese War, they fought back and forth. When they merged, there were very big opinions. It was Mr. Chen who came forward to settle the matter."

"Then the hero followed the army for more than half a year of reorganization training, and then the battle of crossing the river began."

"The railway guerrillas participated in the battle of crossing the river?"

"That's right, after the 35th Division of the 104th Army captured Miura on the north bank of the Yangtze River, it was the first to attack Nanjing in the early morning of April 1949, 4, occupied the Nanjing Presidential Palace, and planted the red flag on the Presidential Palace.

There was a documentary at the time, and my hero was the first to storm into the presidential palace. "

Jiang Shiyu was very appreciative: "Your story is very handsome."

Liu Man also appreciated it: "It's very similar to the perspective of the story of the 50th Army just now. It can shoot an epic story. What happened next?"

"Later, the 35th Army entered Zhejiang and did not go south with the large army, but stayed behind to clear up the local bandits."

Jiang Shiyu's brain was wide open: "Isn't that your hometown? I remember that "Little Flower" was adapted from the novel "Tongbai Hero", and it was also used to eliminate bandits during the War of Liberation. If it was you, wouldn't it be the 35th Army? "

Yang Shu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Tongbai is in Henan, my hometown is Tonglu, it's far away, and the bandit suppression team is not the same.

The 35th Army suppressed bandits in Zhejiang. After the outbreak of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, some troops also went to the front line. According to the information I found, the railway guerrillas must have entered the dynasty. "

"So your hero has entered the court again?"

Yang Shu touched his chin: "I haven't figured it out yet, maybe he stayed in Tonglu and married my grandma?"
