The Eight Hundred appeared in the National Cinema Promotion Conference to reproduce the legend of the Anti-Japanese War.

The Light of Hope eight hundred heroes Stations in Sihang Warehouse.

1905 movie network news Director Guan Hu’s another masterpiece has aroused the unanimous expectation of the industry and fans since it was announced. At the same time, I am more curious about how The Eight Hundred will tell the thrilling history 82 years ago. Recently, The Eight Hundred appeared in the 18th National Cinema Domestic Film Promotion Conference, and a documentary recording the preparation of the film made everyone see the determination and pursuit of the film by the main creators, which made some people in the venue look forward to this "ten years to sharpen a sword" war giant.

　

Reproduce the legendary battle in the history of the Anti-Japanese War for ten years. Guan Hu once had "self-doubt"

　

The prototype of the film story is taken from the last battle of the Battle of Songhu in 1937. Xie Jinyuan was ordered to lead more than 400 soldiers from the 524th Regiment of the 88th Division and stationed in the four-row warehouse on the north bank of Suzhou Creek in Shanghai. In order to gain momentum, he lied that there were more than 800 people in the warehouse, so he was called "eight hundred heroes" by later generations. For four days and four nights, they resisted the Japanese crazy attack and proved to the world Chinese’s determination to fight the Japanese war to the end! The south bank of Suzhou River is the Concession, where countless Shanghai citizens, foreign journalists and troops stationed in the Concession gathered to have a panoramic view of this battle, which is a wonder in the history of human war.

Long before the preparation of mr. six, Guan Hu had a plan to present the story of eight hundred heroes on the big screen. However, the venue, personnel and resources at that time could not meet the requirements of the creators. If you can’t restore the banks of the Suzhou River in 1937, you can’t show the heroic and legendary battle. From an idea rooted in the heart, to the completion of Suzhou real scene, and then to the smooth shooting, the project has been restarted three times, among which even Guan Hu himself began to doubt "whether this matter really has that great significance". In the VCR recorded for the promotion meeting, Guan Hu can still clearly remember the process of filming The Eight Hundred in recent years, from "feeling crazy" to "trembling" and then to "excitement". Guan Hu’s painstaking efforts and respect for this film are amazing.

　

People in the industry look forward to creating a new epic of China’s war movies every year.

　

From the four rows of warehouses and concessions that took 18 months to design and build, to the costumes that were repeatedly polished and "worn out", The Eight Hundred revealed the perfection of a war blockbuster. Actors should learn the military movements of 1937 in military training and completely transform themselves from "actors" into "soldiers"; Before shooting, live-fire shooting test should be conducted to observe the effect of each weapon on different objects. Apart from finding fault with the shooting details, the participation of Cao Yu, production designer Lin Mu and other industry experts has also become a "double insurance" for the film quality. In addition, director Guan Hu’s consistent accurate and full portrayal of the characters, The Eight Hundred’s "soft" and "hard" strength is enough to make it a world-class war giant.

The preparation of the documentary only shows the tip of the iceberg of The Eight Hundred in the preparatory stage, but it has already excited all the people in the industry present. Some people said, "This will be our own war blockbuster in Chinese!" Under the introduction of the distributor, everyone is looking forward to seeing the breakthrough and innovation of domestic war movies in the film. Many cinema managers even bluntly said that "there should be more such movies". After the conference, many people still praised "The Eight Hundred is the first choice movie this summer".
