Chapter 180: Praise is endless

Eight rounds of rapid fire were artillery positions, and each cannon fired eight rounds in the shortest possible time. Our army has more than 50 cannons, each with eight shots, which is more than 400 rounds. At the same time, more than 200 rockets were also smashed into the Vietnamese positions like lightning.

I saw a dense array of bombs reaching the position of the Vietnamese artillery group, setting off a shock wave. Vietnamese soldiers were blown away by artillery shells and torn to pieces by the explosions, and Vietnamese artillery was constantly blown away and turned into burning wreckage. The whole position screamed, screamed, and exploded, and it became a hell of flames.

On the 655 heights, Yan Shuangying stretched out his left hand again, measured the position of the Vietnamese artillery with the "staring method", and reported the coordinates: "Target No. 103, distance 15112, prepare, put!"

With a whistling sound, hundreds of bombs rained down from the sky like wasps leaving their nests. In the earth-shattering noise, orange flowers bloomed on the Vietnamese army's position. It's like a cannibal flower, which can't help devouring life. A Vietnamese officer brandished a pistol and shouted at the fleeing Vietnamese soldiers: "Hold it off for me!" Just then, a shell landed beside him. The explosion produced flames and shrapnel that tore the officer to pieces and flew everywhere.

Knowing that the general situation was gone, the Vietnamese division commander got into a jeep and prepared to flee.

Yan Shuangying stood on the hill and calmly watched everything: "The enemy is breaking and fleeing south, target No. 106." Ready, set!"

Our artillery kept roaring, and the rocket artillery couldn't stop whistling. Countless artillery shells and rockets rained down like hail on the fleeing Vietnamese troops. Vietnamese soldiers were constantly being blown up and killed, and screams were heard one after another; Vietnamese cars were constantly turning into flaming fireballs, debris from explosions flying wildly, and burning tires rolling around.

The jeep of the Vietnamese division commander successfully evaded the cover of our artillery fire and continued to flee south along the road.

On the hillside, bleeding profusely, Liang Guozhu took out a grenade, loaded it on the gun, and pulled the trigger sharply on the jeep of the Vietnamese division commander. The grenade hit the jeep accurately, turning into a huge fireball with fragments flying everywhere. In the raging flames, the wreckage of the jeep rolled down the cliff to the bottom of the valley.

The camera switched, Yan Shuangying held the microphone in his right hand and said loudly: "Regain my territory and fire at the enemy's depth!"

Another salvo of howitzers and rocket artillery, and dense shells rained down on the hillside behind the Vietnamese army, and the entire hillside suddenly became a sea of fire. The earth trembled with the sound of explosions, and the sky lost its color with terror.

Our tank groups are rapidly advancing towards the enemy's positions, and our infantry, under the cover of tanks, does not stop firing like the remnants of the enemy. The position was littered with the corpses of Vietnamese soldiers, and the living Vietnamese soldiers either raised their hands in surrender or fled into the distance.

The camera cuts to the martyrs' cemetery, where a row of newly erected white stone monuments stands in a conspicuous position, and hundreds of soldiers who participated in the memorial service lined up in a neat queue. Yan Shuangying stood at the front of the team with a solemn expression, his eyes full of tears. His right hand was raised heavily, saluting the tombstone of the martyr, and shouting at the same time: "Salute!"

The soldiers who participated in the memorial neatly raised their right hands and solemnly saluted the tombstones of the martyrs.

The camera cuts, Yan Shuangying, Liang Guozhu and a group of heavily armed soldiers stand in front of the jungle. Yan Shuangying looked at the soldiers in front of him and said coldly: "You are excellent soldiers selected from various units, some are proficient in martial arts, some are natural snipers, and some are able to drive various vehicles, but these alone are not enough to become falcons." What is a Falcon? The Falcon is the best scout, the king of scouts......"

The camera is pulled up high, overlooking the swallow and the eagles, as well as the undulating pines and cypresses around them. The camera slowly pans into the distance, the green mountains are verdant, the land is vast, and it is so picturesque.

This is the end of the movie, and the subtitles are speeding across the screen.

The lights of the screening room snapped on, and slightly excited faces emerged from the darkness. The leader sitting next to Xu Wangqiu smiled and clapped his hands gently. Afterwards, the generals and other leaders present also smiled and clapped their hands vigorously. They have watched Xu Wangqiu's "Hoe Rape", know that his directing level is very high, and have heard others say that "Falcon" is particularly well filmed. But after they finished watching it, they realized that "Falcon" was even better than they imagined. It is incredible that a young man less than twenty years old can make a better movie than Xie Jin and Xie Tieli.

Xu Wangqiu was very surprised to see that the leaders present all stood up and applauded. These people present were either generals or standing committee members, but they didn't expect them to get up and applaud after watching the movie. Xu Wangqiu was a little excited, even these big names were moved by the movie, and ordinary audiences were naturally not a problem. He felt that more than a year of hard work had not been in vain, and the film "Falcon" was completed.

Wang Lanxi was also very surprised, there were many movies that were screened for the leaders in Nanhai, but it was the first time he had seen a movie with such a warm response as "Falcon". But if you think about it, it's actually not surprising that "Falcon" was so well filmed, and it was very good. Not only is the scene huge, but the story is full of ups and downs, a small high/tide in five minutes, and a big high/tide in ten minutes, which makes people want to stop.

"Congratulations, Director Xu!" said the big leader with a smile, "You made a good movie." Your film is ready for export, and if it sells well overseas and has a good response overseas, it should give you a credit. This film not only shows the persecution of the Chinese by the Vietnamese, but also shows our courage and determination to defend our homeland. ”

Xu Wangqiu felt his heart pounding against his ribs, like a hare in an iron cage, but he was very modest: "No, no, in fact, we didn't do anything, and those soldiers who shed blood and sacrificed for the country are the real heroes." ”

Seeing Xu Wangqiu say this, the big leader nodded slightly, this young man is less than 20 years old, and it is really rare for him to be able to be neither arrogant nor impatient in the face of praise! It seems that it was his idea to set up a film export company, and he is a rare talent! He turned to several generals behind him and said: "You are all generals who have experienced a hundred battles, and there is no one who knows war better than you. Now that I've finished watching the movie, can I tell us how you feel?"

A tall general stood up and said in a loud voice: "This film is very realistic, and it is the most realistic war movie I have ever seen." The story of the movie is a bit like "Crossing the River", but it is better than "Crossing the River". I've watched a lot of war films, both Chinese and foreign, and "Falcon" is the best. ”

Several other generals agreed, praising one after another: "The biggest difference between "Falcon" and previous war films is that it truly depicts the tragedy and tragedy of the soldiers' sacrifices. I think war movies should be made like this, and the audience will understand after watching such a movie that peace is bought by countless soldiers with their lives and blood. ”

"This movie was so moving that I almost burst into tears when they rolled mines. Their sacrifice reminds me of the many sacrifices of the soldiers in the previous revolutions. Decades have passed, and our fighters are still as brave and tenacious. ”

"In the past, our films always avoided sacrifice and death, and avoided the cruel side of war. "Crossing the River Reconnaissance" should show the scene of the soldier Wu Laogui who died heroically to cover his comrades. can only use a wine jug to write the article, Wu Laogui did not shoot him when he died, but filmed his wine jug was thrown in the weeds. In this way, the sacrifice of the characters is expressed. "Falcon" is different from these films, "Falcon" is very realistic, almost like a documentary. ”

After everyone finished expressing their opinions, the big leader looked at Xu Wangqiu and said with a smile: "You make movies for export and to earn foreign exchange for the country." However, in the course of creation, it is still necessary to fully express the excellent qualities of the Chinese people and praise the great victories won by the people in the course of revolution and construction and in the struggle against all kinds of enemies and all kinds of difficulties. "Falcon" does a good job in this regard, and works like this should be shot more. By the way, I heard that you are going to treat movies as an industry. Cinema is an artistic creation, can this be done like an industry?"

Xu Wangqiu didn't expect the leader to ask this question, explaining: "Film is a commodity, but it is different from ordinary commodities, it is a cultural commodity. Since it is a commodity, there is the possibility of industrialization. The key to the industrialization of film is the professional division of labor. The film production process is extremely complex and divided into many work links, and the film industry actually refers to the division of professional positions in each chain, each performing its own duties, and finally combining them together to complete high-quality and high-standard works with high efficiency.

For example, sound is a particularly important part of post-production. For example, when we shoot a scene in a vegetable market, we often find a noisy background sound similar to the scene, and add human voices. In Hollywood's industrial process, the cries of the surrounding vendors, the dialogue, the background sound that matches the scene, and the traffic that is not covered outside the screen are all designed, recorded, and mixed together into the background sound. Comparing the sound of a Hollywood movie with the sound of our film, it is clear that our film sound lacks texture. The movie is composed of dozens, or even hundreds of links, one link is a little worse, and dozens of links are down, then the gap between the movies is particularly obvious. ”

The leaders present have all watched Chinese movies and foreign movies, and they can really feel the problem that Xu Wangqiu said. When watching Chinese movies, you will find that the sound of many movies does not change from far or near, the characters are 1 meter away from the camera, the sound is so loud, and 10 meters away from the camera, it is still so big, which gives people a very strange feeling. On the contrary, American movies do not have this problem, the sound changes from far and near, and it is very real. It turned out that they didn't know what was going on, but now after listening to Xu Wangqiu's words, they all understood.

The big leader nodded slightly and said: "I watched the sound of "Falcon" very well, very real. ”

Xu Wangqiu said with a wry smile: "Our movie is ready for export, and we have to take it out to wrestle with Hollywood." We were already in a disadvantaged position, and if we didn't make up to others, it would be difficult for our films to sell, so we worked the sound, and the whole production of the film. ”

The big leader asked, "Then how long will it take us to build a film industry?"

Xu Wangqiu thought for a while and said, "It will take at least thirty years." ”

The big leader said in surprise: "Does it take so long?"

Xu Wangqiu thought to himself that it was not certain whether it could be established in 30 years, and when I crossed over, the Chinese film industry had not yet been filmed, so he said: "Now there are about 140 types of work in Hollywood film production technology, and there are hundreds of thousands of employees, while we only have more than 20 kinds and only a few thousand employees." These types of work require a large number of professionals, and we simply do not have a school to train these professionals, so we can only cultivate them ourselves. It is impossible to train hundreds of thousands of professional and technical personnel overnight, and the process will be very long, and it may not be possible to do it in 30 years. ”

The big leader understands the key: "It is impossible for the handicraft industry to fight the industry, and I am afraid that the same is true in the film field." It doesn't matter if the process is longer, if it doesn't work in 30 years, it will take 50 years, but no matter how long, we must build our own film industry. ”

Xu Wangqiu said firmly: "We will definitely work hard!"
