Era: Beginning from the Modu Translation Studio

Chapter 446 The best script is always a gift from God

After the beginning of autumn, the nights get colder each day.

Jiangshan sat alone in front of the window, listening to his eldest brother across the street yelling at his two children to go to bed, and his second brother clacking away at making malted milk for his wife.

It’s true that no one supervises kids this generation when they watch TV.

Anyway, once it gets to 10 o'clock at night, the only programs left are science and education training.

"The third child,"

After taking care of the children, the eldest son pushed the door open and walked back: "I'm not going home today. I'll just stay here for one night."

"No, why do you have to stay here?" Jiang Shan pointed to the next door: "Xiaochuan's room is empty."

"Forget it, don't let the smoke smell everywhere."

Comrade Jiang Hai, who was changing his shoes, suddenly asked: "Why, you're not happy to stay with me for one night?"

"Gladly, gladly,"

How could Jiang Shan not be happy: "Brother, when will you bring me a new sister-in-law?"

"Did mom mention this to you again?"

"That's not the case," Jiang Shan just remembered something:

"By the way, brother, mom asked us to clean up Xiaochuan's room. She wants Xiaoyu to move in with them."

"Hmm? Have you asked Xiaochuan about this?"

"You still need to ask this? She only comes back one day a week now. Why don't you leave the room empty for Xiaoyu?"

"That's true," Jiang Hai nodded and smiled, "So, Xiaobai will have to rely on himself in the future."

"It's time for us to live separately. Xiaoyuer is already in second grade."

"Time flies so fast!"

After taking out a stack of documents from his briefcase, Jiang Hai also sat down at the square table.

Jiang He came out of the small kitchen carrying a bowl of fried eggs, and didn't even turn his head when passing by Jiang Shan's window.

"Do you smell it?" Jiang Shan sniffed his nose and said, "It also contains sesame oil."

"I smelled it a long time ago. Is the second brother so busy every day?"

"Anyway, she's been working harder than before. I guess it's because Second Sister-in-law's appetite has increased again."

The two people in the room watched Jiang He walk past them.

Then, they all lowered their heads again.

……

[Zhang Xihu, his father Zhang Boling was one of the founders of Nankai University.

Zhang Xihu, who had dreamed of becoming an athlete since he was a child, enrolled in the Central Aviation School after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.

In 1937, Zhang Xihu, who was only 25 years old, died in a plane crash while on a mission.

[Shen Chonghui, whose father was a Grand Justice of the Judicial Yuan, participated in the rescue of Li Dazhao.

After graduating from Tsinghua University, he resolutely entered the Central Aviation School.

In 1937, when ordered to bomb the Japanese Third Fleet.

Because the tail of the plane was hit, Shen Chonghui gave up parachuting and dived directly down, crashing into the Japanese warship leader: Izumo.

That year, he was 27 years old. 】

[Chen Huaimin, his father was a famous industrialist in Jiangsu Province.

When fighting against the Japanese army, they won many victories.

During the last battle, I saw my teammates' planes being shot down one after another.

Chen Huaimin, who was furious, flew his plane directly towards the rampant Japanese planes.

That year, he was only 22 years old.

After hearing the sad news, Chen Huaimin’s mother cried until she went blind, and his girlfriend Wang Lulu jumped into the Yangtze River...】

"What are you writing about?"

Jiang Hai had already stood behind Jiang Shan without knowing when. "Character portrait?"

"Yeah." Jiang Shan nodded without turning his head.

Jiang Hai guessed, "The script for Hong Kong?"

"This time," Jiang Shan picked up the storyboard and flicked it, "I plan to serve them two dishes at the same time..."

In later generations, in order to ensure that the capital side would give their approval.

To be on the safe side, Party B will usually offer Party A two plans, Plan A and Plan B.

Just like the current situation of Jiangshan, we must ensure that everything goes smoothly and that we win the first battle.

……

A few days later, in Hong Kong, the "Huang Yu Lin" advertising company happily saw off the senior executives of the Nanyang Commercial Bank.

Huang Zhan and Lin Yanni looked at a videotape on the table with great surprise.

"I really didn't expect that."

Huang Zhan didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly:
"I originally thought that by raising the advertising price this time, we could repay Mr. Jiang for his kindness. Unexpectedly, he gave us a big gift."

"That's what I mean."

Lin Yanni has become more plump recently: "I didn't expect that Jiang Sheng actually has a relationship with Nanshang Bank."

"That's not surprising. I've already said he's not an ordinary person."

The two were having a good time together when suddenly a parcel was delivered by the secretary.

Huang Zhan took it and looked at the address, then opened it the next second.

"Is it sent from the mainland?" Lin Yanni came closer curiously.

"It was sent by Jiangshan,"

Huang Zhan flipped open the page and was immediately stunned by the storyboard that came into his sight: "Why is this still...from abroad?"

After reading a few pages one by one, the story with both pictures and text gradually unfolds...

The smoke-filled battlefield, the scars of war, and the overwhelming darkness made the two people in the office frown at the same time.

In the dim and unclear picture, one corpse after another was lying on the white paper in various tragic conditions.

Countless details and backgrounds show that this is a battlefield that has just been washed in blood.

As the storyboards progressed, the deathly silent battlefield seemed to have lost all life.

Suddenly, a series of intermittent gasps came into view, indicating that there might be a survivor on this scorched earth...

No matter how good a story is, it will never be better than the script designed by God.

Just like what he talked about with the brothers that night, Jiang Shan also prepared a true story for TVB this time.

In 1944, during the Battle of Cannes, one of the Normandy Landings.

A sniper from Germany killed more than forty British soldiers in a row.

Although there was no fierce fighting between the two sides, this thing was obviously more terrifying than a fierce fighting.

On the British position, soldiers were shot in the head one after another.

The simple, brutal but soul-stirring unilateral execution lasted until late at night.

The battlefield shrouded in endless smoke is even more terrifying than hell.

The German sniper hiding in the darkness raised his rifle again.

Through the scope, his gun barrel locked onto a wounded British soldier on the opposite battlefield.

The British soldier, his body covered in blood, lay on the lifeless battlefield.

The bodies of comrades were scattered all around.

One of the soldiers had a photo of a family of three clipped onto his helmet.

At this moment, the soldiers, who had no power to defend themselves, were shaking uncontrollably all over.

While breathing heavily, he tremblingly took out a pocket watch from his arms.

In the darkness opposite, the ghostly German sniper looked at his prey coldly.

In his sight, the seriously wounded British soldier tremblingly opened the cover of the pocket watch.

After touching the photo inside with all his strength, he slowly withdrew his bloody arm reluctantly.

At this moment, the gun aimed at him moved forward two inches.

Everything seemed to be over in an instant.

But the next second, the British soldier lying in a pool of blood struggled to take out a harmonica from his blood-stained shirt.

After choking up several times, the soldier finally blew an Irish folk song.

The moment the music broke the darkness, the British soldier, who was holding the harmonica with both hands, gradually calmed down. As his eyes looked up at the night sky, his tears under the thousands of stars flashed with his nostalgia and reluctance to leave this world.

In the next page of the storyboard, inside the pocket watch with the cover opened, a soldier in civilian clothes is happily holding his little son.

It turned out that at the last moment of his life, the father wanted to give his child, whom he had not seen for a long time, a final farewell song:

Oh, Danny Young,

When the bagpipes call, the valleys are lined up,

When summer is over, roses are hard to remember.

You've gone far away,

And I will be buried here forever.

When the grassland is full of summer, when the snow is completely white.

Let the sky be clear or let there be haze everywhere.

Oh, Danny Young,

I love you so much, waiting for you to linger.

Oh, say you love me and you will come,
Even though the dead are passing away, the dead are still being judged.

Thank you, Heaven and Earth, on the desolate grave,
Please find me and my remains...

Under the night mixed with blood and scorched earth.

The music played by the harmonica passed through the solemn air and flowed slowly across the battlefield.

This ballad is not just for children far away from home.

There are also condolences and tributes to the comrades lying beside them.

Amid the music, the gun aimed at him remained cold and motionless.

After the song ended, the entire battlefield fell into deathly silence again.

Under the sight of the German sniper, the British soldier with his back to the tower slowly raised his hands and took off his helmet.

After closing her eyes quietly, she searched for the chubby little son in her memory.

Although helpless, the soldier was ready to die.

As he waited for the gunshot in the darkness, his expression became more and more tense.

Just when his facial nerves were about to break.

A distant and ethereal flute sound suddenly came from behind.

The British soldier couldn't believe his ears for a moment, so he closed his eyes and listened carefully to the flute sound behind him.

A few seconds later, the soldier, who had not shed a single tear before, couldn't help crying.

It turned out that the music coming from behind him at this time was the folk song he had just played.

He didn't know that while he was playing the harmonica.

The German soldier, who also knew this song, thought of his fiancée who was far away in his hometown.

The beautiful figure that immediately appeared, as well as the loving scenes of the two in the past, flashed before his eyes like slides.

It can be seen that if it were not for the war, these two soldiers would have lived a very happy life.

But at this moment, they are all feeling powerless in the face of great historical changes.

The two soldiers, who are fighting to the death, have surprisingly similar desires for a beautiful and peaceful life.

Similarly, haven't the German soldiers holding sniper rifles experienced the fear of being surrounded by the moment of death?

So, as I watched the man opposite me slowly taking off his helmet and preparing to die.

The German sniper in the tower held the bullet that was about to be shot at the British soldier firmly in the magazine.

What followed was a recorder in the sniper's hand that replaced it.

This night, on this murderous battlefield.

The two melancholy pieces of music made the soldiers from two different camps feel as if they had returned to their long-cherished hometown.

The last page of the storyboard still has a dark tone.

But a row of translucent subtitles allowed the two people in the office to see the main theme of the advertisement:

Music and Peace

——Adapted from a true story during World War II.

"This……"

Lin Yanni, who had already been deeply moved by the story, pointed at the words in disbelief and said, "Is this story actually true?"

"Is it possible that such a miraculous thing is true?"

Huang Zhan was also shocked by this statement: "If this is true, then the value of this advertisement is immeasurable."

"If this story were made into a public service announcement,"

Lin Yanni thought about it and said, "I guess even the British would spend money to buy it, don't you think?"

At this moment, Huang Zhan looked like he had obtained some treasure.

I'm already watching it for the second time while holding the script.

……

The story written by Jiangshan is based on a true story of World War II.

On a rainy night during the Normandy Landings, a British soldier named Jack felt indescribable depression.

Just as he was trying to relieve stress by playing the trumpet.

The commander advised Jack not to blow the trumpet at night.

Because there has been a very powerful German sniper lurking nearby.

But at this time, Jack was deeply afraid and felt that he would die at any time. He couldn't control his emotions at all.

And the German sniper hiding in the darkness was experiencing the same fear and pain.

Anyway, that's what happened. Jack, who was carefree, actually blew the trumpet on the battlefield.

What's more, the song played was a German love song.

It was as if he wanted his opponent to hear it on purpose.

The next morning, at a beach two miles away.

A group of German prisoners of war were escorted towards the British camp.

One of the prisoners cried bitterly and kept asking the other one who blew the trumpet last night.

Because this music reminded him of his parents, siblings and fiancée who were far away in Germany.

This made it impossible for him to aim at the enemy on the opposite side.

Jack, who happened to be passing by, quickly chased after him and hugged him.

After surviving the disaster, he shouted to his superior: He is not our enemy, he is just as lonely and scared as I am.

When interviewed after the war, Jack and his comrades all said that they had gained a brief peace that night, which must be the power of music.

You know, both sides were going through a desperate war at that time.

The Normandy Landings have long been regarded as one of the bloodiest battles of World War II.

The Battle of Cannes was the most tragic of all the battles.

The Second Army, composed of Allied forces from various countries, unexpectedly encountered the German SS 12th Panzer Division in Cannes.

In reality, the Allies not only failed to realize their plan to break through the defense line and occupy Cannes on the first day.

Later, they encountered an elite German division.

Moreover, this elite force turned out to be the 12th Armored Division that he had always looked down upon.

This armored division composed of teenagers was regarded by the German army as the last counterattack force.

The well-trained Armored Division fought a six-week-long war of attrition with the British Army.

Finally, there is this group of doll makers that no one takes seriously.

Not only did it prevent the Allies from occupying Cannes, it also forced the Allies to fail to reach Falaise as planned.

This delayed the formation of the Falaise encirclement and avoided the complete annihilation of the two German armies.

In 2017, NetEase Cloud Music has been called out for its advertising as a better option than music.

With the help of this well-known historical background, an advertisement close to reality, "The Power of Music", was brought to the screen.

For a time, there was a storm and congratulations came from all sides.

The high click-through rate and hot search list have brought NetEase Cloud a lot of praise and benefits.

In this life, Huang Zhan had just opened the second page of the second script when he rushed out of the room holding the script...
