Started as an independent producer in 1988

Chapter 404 Moisturizes things silently!
Next to the snow-covered jeep, Chen Shiping threw a suitcase into the trunk.

We have to change the scene again today, and we will shoot the river crossing scene tonight.

The filming of the trilogy "Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea" is already halfway completed.

It doesn't mean that a film and a half have been shot, but that half of the big scenes and battle scenes in the film have been shot.

Some of the literary scenes were not filmed by Chen Shiping, and the crew is not in a hurry to film them now.

Most of the literary scenes are set indoors, so we just need to gather them together and shoot them at the end.

Chen Shiping wanted to finish filming all the large-scale battle scenes as quickly as possible. He was mainly worried that Feng Xiaoning would not be able to grasp the rhythm of such a film.

After all, the films Feng Xiaoning had filmed before were more literary.

The several war films he shot also have relatively old-fashioned styles and a slow pace.

Naturally, Chen Shiping was not very confident in letting him take full charge of the directing.

Of course, it’s more for my own enjoyment.

At this time, the crew of more than a thousand people were all packing up their things. Dozens of trucks were filled to the brim with all kinds of equipment and props.

Various photographic equipment, as well as costumes and firearms props, submachine guns, rifles, anti-aircraft guns, mortars, etc.

Everyone in the crew wore green military coats and it really looked like they were going to war rather than filming a movie.

To put it in an exaggerated way, if the current equipment of the crew and the extras composed of veterans were all replaced with real guns and live ammunition, so many people would be able to destroy many small countries.

Don't underestimate the equipment from the fifties and sixties.

To this day, many countries are still unable to produce, let alone train so many powerful soldiers.

Even decades ago, we were very strong! We were always playing in the top games!

Chen Shiping becomes more and more confident as he films these movies!
The conditions were so bad back then, but we still won!

In another twenty years, the whole world will have to act according to our wishes!
After Chen Shiping packed his things, he got into the car, took out a notebook and started writing and drawing.

The scene after the transition was not easy to shoot either.

The river crossing scene in such a cold weather is very dangerous, so the shot must be designed well and done in one go.

Otherwise the actors can’t stand it.

The logistics work must also be prepared!

After working for a while, Chen Shiping rolled down the car window and shouted to the outside: "Life Producer, come here!!"

After a while, the Life Producer came over, looked at Chen Shiping and asked, "Mr. Chen, what's wrong?"

"Get the logistics right. There must not be any accidents during the river crossing scene tonight."

"Don't worry, all kinds of heating supplies are ready, and the medical staff are also ready."

"Okay, make more for today's midnight snack, and make it hotter."

"We'll have beef stew and dumplings tonight."

When Chen Shiping heard about dumplings, he felt a little hungry, touched his stomach and asked, "What kind of filling is it?"

"Beef and green onions!" the life producer said immediately.

"Okay, then go ahead and get busy."

"okay!"

Before leaving, the Life Producer noticed that Chen Shiping was rubbing his stomach. After a moment's thought, he quickly ran to the kitchen tent where food was being packed and asked the chef to prepare another pot of dumplings.

"It's for the director, don't complain." The Life Producer saw the impatience on the chef's face and said this.

The chef suddenly stopped talking. If it were an ordinary director, he might have said something troublesome and pretentious, but with Chen Shiping's words, he didn't dare to complain.

He is not only a director, but also a big leader!

Ten minutes later, the life producer ran to Chen Shiping's car with a lunch box and knocked on the window.

"Mr. Chen, I just cooked some dumplings and brought them to you for inspection. Let's see if there is anything that needs to be improved in our logistics work."

The life producer handed in the lunch box with a smile on his face.

Chen Shiping was a little surprised. He took the dumpling lunch box and said, "Yes, I can smell the fragrance."

"Well, as long as you like it, I'll go and get my lunch box later." The Life Producer smiled and ran away.

Chen Shiping closed the car window, rubbed his hands happily, and prepared to eat.

Looking at the steaming white dumplings, Chen Shiping couldn't wait to pinch one and put it in his mouth.

The temperature was just right, neither cold nor hot. When Chen Shiping took a bite, the oil in the filling flowed out, and the aroma of beef and green onions immediately filled his mouth!
Chen Shiping let out a long sigh of satisfaction and was about to eat the second one when the car door opened.

Special effects Lao Hu got in the car and saw the lunch box with hot dumplings on Chen Shiping's knees. His eyes suddenly lit up!
"Please give it to me for free! Let me try it!" Old Hu said as he pinched one and put it in his mouth.

Since his chance to enjoy the delicious food alone was ruined, Chen Shiping could only pretend to be generous and share it with him.

But Lao Hu ate too fast, and Chen Shiping had to speed up to grab the dumplings from him as he watched them disappear.

There were more than 20 dumplings in a box, and the two of them finished them all in less than three minutes.

Lao Hu patted his stomach and said, "These dumplings taste good. I haven't eaten them for a long time."

"You sound like you're being unfair to me. Why do I feel like you've gained weight?" Chen Shiping said unhappily, "You insisted on coming here, and now you're complaining about it."

Old Hu smiled and said, "Don't mind. The scenery here is nice and the food is good too."

"I'm too lazy to talk to you." Chen Shiping closed the lid of the lunch box, looked at him and asked, "Why are you here to talk to me?"

"Change, I'm here to ask for leave today. I want to go to the Ice and Snow Festival for a few days."

Old Hu smiled and asked, "Why don't you go and take a look?"

"I don't have the time. Let's talk about it after we finish filming. It will be almost done in another 20 days. You can go by yourself." Chen Shiping looked at the time and remembered that the Ice and Snow Festival opened today.

He was originally invited over there, but Chen Shiping refused. He had only done a little bit of work, so there was no need for him to come and draw attention to himself.

I don’t know how the preparations have been going over the past month.

It should be pretty good if everyone is working on it.

Chen Shiping still remembers that when he left Harbin, he saw workers working hard on the streets. There was no reason why such a group of people could not do a good job.

Old Hu wrapped his clothes around himself, bumped into Chen Shiping and said, "Give me a car."

"How about a three-wheeler?"

"It'll freeze people to death, okay?"

"You have too much fat." "That's not enough, I'm going to eat your rice!"

“Just ate my dumplings!”

"Okay, I thought, just because of a few dumplings, ugh, stingy!"

Chen Shiping raised his middle finger. If someone steals his food, he must hold a grudge against him!
And he wants paid travel and a car to be arranged for him, bah!

Lao Hu left cursing, and you just need to arrange for someone to take him to the station.

After a while, everything was packed up and the convoy set off. Another filming location was not far away, only a dozen kilometers away.

This river is full of flowing water, and the current temperature is not high enough to cause the river surface to freeze.

This condition is just right, the water temperature is not that cold and you can still hold on after going into the water.

Just like winter swimming, anyone with a healthy body can handle it.

After the crew arrived here, they immediately began to set up, and by the time it got dark, the actors were ready and arrived at the river.

In the cold wind, the actors did not show much fear on their faces and started to take off their pants and go into the water.

When stepping into the icy river water, the actors immersed themselves more deeply into their roles.

It’s cold, bone-chillingly cold, but the heart is hot, like a furnace, ready to burn out a prosperous era!
At this time of night, Harbin is just like a prosperous age. The huge ice and snow sculptures are particularly beautiful under the colorful lights.

Brilliant fireworks bloomed above the city, and this city of ice and snow blossomed with its own unique beauty tonight.

On the set of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the river crossing scenes have been completed and they are now filming the battle scenes. The soldiers without pants are charging forward bravely, and the enemies on the opposite side are of all skin colors and nationalities, but no one is afraid.

"There are so many people, but not many foreigners, so the publicity effect is still not very good." The chubby Old Hu feels that there are very few foreigners, most of them are Chinese.

Old Hu took two steps forward and suddenly turned his head to look at a young couple passing by.

Asian face, but speaks English, probably from Singapore or Malaysia.

Thinking of this, he began to observe his surroundings carefully. After walking less than 20 meters, he heard Cantonese, Hakka, English, Thai, Malay, Korean and even a few words of Japanese.

I originally thought that most of them were Chinese tourists, but now I realize that they are tourists from Southeast Asia and Central Asia.

Lao Hu saw many tour guides holding small flags speaking languages ​​of different countries.

"Chen Shiping is really awesome. He really attracted so many foreign tourists." Lao Hu feels that China Film Group has a strong control over the media industry in Asia.

When someone comes to travel, they must have been influenced by seeing advertisements. Advertisements are only the simplest and crudest way. The infiltration of various soft articles is the real way to impress these people.

Only a beautiful essay, a beautiful postcard, a late-night story on the radio, and all kinds of soft articles can impress these people unconsciously.

When Lao Hu was queuing in front of a cake shop, he heard two Singaporean tourists in front of him talking about their experiences of visiting China.

"It's just like what's described in the magazine. The people here are so welcoming and especially polite."

"Yes, and they do a really good job of protecting the environment. There are a lot of trash cans and there are dedicated sanitation workers. There is no trash on the ground at all!"

"Yes, and the hotels and restaurants are very clean. I read a short story before that said the dishes here are washed seven times and the toilet water is drinkable!"

When Lao Hu heard this, he couldn't help but twitch his lips. Who wrote this short story?

There's something wrong with your brain!

Besides, there are more people squatting in Harbin, okay? How the hell is this drink?!

Even if it is a flush toilet, the place where the drain bends cannot be cleaned. If you have the guts, try reaching your hand in there!

Still drinking?

take things too hard!

"Which idiot wrote a story without considering the reality? The dishes have to be washed seven times." Lao Hu couldn't help but curse, but he felt it was funny.

There is a feeling that we are very civilized and powerful, but the manifestation of our civilization is a bit strange. Why do we all wash dishes and drink toilet water?

While Lao Hu was complaining in his heart, the two people in front were still chatting.

"You know the story about the Peking University Library at 4 a.m.? I often used this story to motivate myself when I was in high school!"

"I like that story, too! But what impressed me most was the supermarket with the power outage! When I bought roasted sweet potatoes on the roadside today, the boss really didn't check how much I paid!"

Lao Hu was a little confused. Peking University at 4am? Haunted? How come he didn't know?
This professor has worked in vain. The ghost story has spread abroad, but he himself has not even heard of it.

But what is that supermarket with the power outage?
Old Hu was really curious and wanted to ask the two young tourists what was going on.

Why do they seem a bit foreign-worshiping?

Even if this outsider is ourselves.

Lao Hu guessed that these things were all asked by Chen Shiping. After so many years of investing overseas in magazines, newspapers, radio stations, television stations, cinemas, etc., these industries would be very scary if they were surrounded.

It is almost equivalent to that all channels for the public to receive external information are blocked.

The Internet is not yet available to everyone, and traditional media still dominates the world.

Chunyu Investment has penetrated so many industries that it is very easy to make such subtle changes.

Moreover, this kind of Chinese-praising articles are not just for brainwashing purposes but also have no economic benefits.

Become a Chinese fan. Do you eat Chinese food? Do you want to learn about Chinese pop culture? Do you watch Chinese movies and TV series? Do you follow Chinese stars? Do you use Chinese products?
You can write in your essay that Chinese products are of high quality and low price. A thrifty old couple was planning to buy the latest model of TV, but they were planning to replace their original TV which had been used for ten years. However, they continued to use it for another three years and it was still in good condition!
In the end, I had no choice but to choose not to change it. Diligence and thrift are also our traditional virtues!

In short, all infiltrated media products in various regions of Asia will have this color to a greater or lesser extent.

Anyway, among eight or ten articles, there will always be one written by Zhongchui.

It is easy to get your manuscript approved and the price is high. Just write it without thinking. It doesn’t matter whether you have been there or not!

The radio host would occasionally make up some travel stories and talk about his own experiences traveling to China.

In fact, they have never been to China, but does it matter?

unimportant!
What is important is this subtle influence!
Lao Hu was now really interested. After buying some bread, he strolled around the street and eavesdropped on the stories of the foreign tourists.

It's as disgusting as a single guy staring at someone and refusing to kiss them on Valentine's Day!
However, after listening around, Lao Hu found that most of the people who said these things were young tourists.

Older people hardly ever talk about these topics. They just sigh at how beautiful the ice sculptures are. The people here are very warm and hospitable, and the experience is very good. Even the small stalls on the roadside have billboards in several languages.

Lao Hu wondered if Chen Shiping only influenced young people abroad, and that young people are most suitable for brainwashing when their values ​​have not yet been established.

This is a protracted battle. When those young people grow up and gain control of the society, that will be the time to reap the rewards.

Tsk tsk, some of the stories just sound a bit weird!
Who is such a good person who drinks toilet water, only reads books on the subway, and can endure a knife in the heart for three days to send his daughter home!
Lao Hu thinks this is too outrageous, but those young tourists seem to believe it firmly. Or maybe they have seen too little. They will understand it if they come to China a few more times.

However, this time when they came to travel domestically, all the staff in Northeast China were mobilized and attached great importance to it. Many laid-off workers also formed patrol teams to patrol everywhere.

Who dares to mess around? Everyone is so enthusiastic and generous!
Those foreign tourists found that Northeast China is exactly the same as what is described in the books!
