Chapter 1501 "The Garland Under the Mountain"
Hey, you started preparing for the movie so early? Oh, yes, "Be Proud, Mother" started to be filmed this year, and then it will be released next year, and Shen Long also saw a lot of staff members shooting documentaries on the front line. It is also the practice of various countries to use film and television programs for publicity. It's not surprising at all.
"Haven't they found a suitable script yet?" Shen Long asked. He originally wanted to write one as last time, and then see if there is any opportunity to adapt it into other types of literary works. He didn't expect that there would be hope so soon. up.
"Where is it that you can have a good script?" The political commissar shook his head, "There are a lot of creators who went to the front to collect songs, but they went later than you, and I guess they haven't collected enough materials yet; It’s been a long time, and I’ve created such a good work as "Cavalry Company, Charge!", you must have an idea?"
"It just so happened that I had a few old guys working in the film studio, so they called me and wanted to ask you to help me create a script. If it's suitable, they will hurry up and start shooting." The political commissar introduced.
"It's some ideas. I've been sorting out the materials since I came back. I already have the general outline of the story. The next step is to conceive the details." Shen Long nodded.
"Then hurry up, and I won't bother you. If someone comes to interview, I will help you if I can. Anyway, you don't like these things." The political commissar made arrangements.
"Then I'll go back and continue preparing." Shen Long said goodbye and left, returned to his office, closed his eyes and began to think about which film to choose. There are actually quite a few films about this period.
For example, "Be Proud, Mother" mentioned before, tells the story of our border guards marching towards the border between the two countries like a torrent of steel, in order to clear the way for our army and bravely clear the mines.
There is also "Flower Branches", which tells the story of ordinary soldier Huang Yongliang who grew up and sacrificed for the country in the process of participating in the war.
"Acacia Tree in the Thunder Field", adapted from Jiang Qitao's novella "Acacia Tree in the Thunder Field", tells the story of five local university graduates who went to the military academy to study, signed up for the war, and experienced the test of life and death in the war; it is worth mentioning that Jiang Qitao is also the screenwriter of many classic TV series such as "Bright Sword", "Hanwu Emperor", "The Righteous Way in the World Is Vicissitudes".
"Lightning Action", a collaboration between Yindu Organization and Bayi Factory, tells the story of a reconnaissance team of our army going deep into the enemy's rear and destroying the enemy's heavy artillery positions. Famous actors such as Sun Haiying and Zhao Xiaorui starred.
In "Fifteen Moons", Fang Xiaomei and Yuan Shaolin are a pair of lovers. One day, Yuan suddenly receives an order from his superiors to go to the front line with Fang Xiaomei's brother; Tian Jing and Fang's brother are also a pair of lovers. A reporter fell in love,
During the battle, Yuan Shaolin was seriously injured, and Ji Ji kept up with the front line and took a batch of battlefield video materials, allowing the people of the whole country to see the figures of the soldiers fighting in front...
Compared with this movie, the song of the same name has been circulated for a longer time in later generations, but it is still a good movie.
But in the future, as long as people talk about movies about this period of history, there is only one number one in everyone's minds, and that is "Garland under the Mountain", directed by the famous director Xie Jin, starring Lu Xiaohe, Tang Guoqiang, Siqin Gaowa and others.
The story of "Wreath under the Mountain" is very simple. Director Li, the creator of the Jinan Army Song and Dance Troupe, came to the headquarters of the third battalion of a certain infantry regiment in Ailao Mountain, Yunnan, and interviewed the battalion instructor Zhao Mengsheng; Zhao Mengsheng was born in a revolutionary family. In the war, he won first-class meritorious service.
For more than three years, he has never been envious of the flowers, flowers, willows and greenery of big cities. He has been silently fighting on the border of Yunnan, and mobilized his lover, who is a military doctor, to serve in frontier outposts. However, he has refused to accept interviews many times, so his deeds have never been revealed Can be seen in newspapers.
After careful questioning, I found out that Zhao Mengsheng had always felt guilty. When he was sent down to the company, he just wanted to follow the curve and seek a higher position for himself. With his style of a young master, he had conflicts with the company commander Liang Sanxi many times.
Therefore, Zhao Mengsheng wanted to transfer the company, but when the transfer order came down, the order to join the war also came. Liang Sanxi scolded Zhao Mengsheng, saying that his behavior was a deserter, and Zhao Mengsheng had to bite the bullet and go to the front.
In the brutal war on the front line, Zhao Mengsheng was inspired by Liang Sanxi, Jin Kailai and others, and gradually grew up, realizing the responsibility of being a soldier.
In the last battle, Jiulian finally stood on the main peak of Height 364. Just as everyone was celebrating the victory, the remnant enemy fired cold shots. Liang Sanxi was shot to save Zhao Mengsheng. In the chest pocket, Zhao Mengsheng found a blood-stained bill in the pocket of his coat. Every loan recorded on it totaled 620 yuan.
Zhao Mengsheng and the soldiers did not hand over Liang Sanxi’s debts to Aunt Liang. They planned to pay the company commander to pay the debt, but before leaving, Aunt Liang and Yuxiu refused the soldiers according to Sanxi’s family letter. Because of his kindness, he took out the pension and the money he brought from home, and insisted on repaying the debt.
At the end of the film, Zhao Mengsheng led all the comrades of the Jiulian Company and Officer Li, carrying garlands woven of flowers one by one to the Lietu Cemetery, and presented the garlands in front of the martyrs' tombs.
Unlike previous movies, this story created a bunch of simplified and flat characters without ignoring some problems in the army. The characters are vivid and real; it fully presents Zhao Mengsheng's transformation from a spiritual deserter The process of being a mighty warrior.
This movie created a group of soldiers with flesh and blood, and was widely praised after the screening. Liang Sanxi also became the most popular image of soldiers in the country during this period.
Shen Long recalled the creation process of this work. The author Li Cunbao should still be doing interviews and writing reportage on the front line. He didn't start writing this work until three years later. As for the filming and release, it will be seven years later up.
This time is a bit too long. Now is the time when such a good work is needed to let the people of the whole country know about this war and the heroic fighters. How could it be delayed for so long?
Then let this movie be born in advance. Shen Long picked up a pen and wrote the words "Garland under the Mountain" on the draft paper, and then began to conceive how to adapt it.
The main context of this story can be referred to, but the details must be adapted according to the materials I have collected, so as to achieve better results.
