For many of the old Flying Tigers of Chinese nationality, among the actors who walked in, Mr. Li Xuejian was the only one they were familiar with, except for the old man Sun Xiaozhong, almost everyone else had seen Jiao Yulu played by Mr. Li Xuejian, for the old man of this age, as early as when Jiao Yulu's deeds were famous all over the country, they already knew the character of Jiao Yulu, and when Jiao Yulu played by Mr. Li Xuejian was released and broadcast, they instinctively equated Mr. Li Xuejian and Jiao Yulu.

From Li Xuejian, it can be seen that good actors are indeed deeply respected by the people, in terms of age, the youngest of these old Flying Tigers is also in his eighties, at least thirty years older than Li Xuejian, but because he successfully created the image of Jiao Yulu, it left an extremely deep impression on these veterans, so when he came in, all the old people were amazed and even in awe.

When the veterans heard that Mr. Li Xuejian would play their former Chinese prefect in the movie, everyone was particularly pleased.

Mr. Li Xuejian also expressed his greatest respect for these old people, personally bowed to every old man, shook hands with every old man, and the oldest he also set an excellent example to other actors.

So, the other actors are also like him, with twelve points of respect, to express the highest respect to the old people.

For the next two days, the actors spent more than eight hours a day with the veterans, they would sit together, listen to the veterans take turns to tell their stories, and they would use notebooks to carefully write down the touching points that the veterans said and the psychological activities they described that year, which was very helpful in the development of the characters.

Almost all of these veterans have a very good cultural foundation, although they now look at the old dragon clock, and completely show the image of the old peasant, but their ideological realm is so high that all the younger generations are admired.

What moved the actors and Li Mu the behind-the-scenes staff the most was that the veterans, without exception, all thought that the war was completely their obligation to the country and the nation, everyone felt that this nation owed them, but they never thought so, they felt that the nation will always be the supreme existence, and it is worthy of everyone's life for the existence, just like the mother who gave everyone life, should always have a heart of gratitude and gratitude, and at the same time never feel that the mother owes herself。

Two days are two days of great significance for every actor, these old people evoke the national feelings in their bones and in the era of peace, which are hidden by utilitarianism.

On the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Spring City became the object of the world's media attention, and a large number of reporters poured into Spring City from all directions to participate in the press conference jointly held by Makino Imaging and DreamWorks.

On the one hand, the Chinese actors of "Flying Tigers" have been hanging in suspense, not only the Chinese people, but also Chinese people all over the world are paying close attention, and the primary mission of this press conference itself is to announce the cast, so it is full of expectations;

Moreover, because Li Mu formed a CSC club, he has been commented on by many netizens on the Internet for several days, and there have been many highly targeted remarks on the Internet, such as swords, pointing directly at Li Mu, but Li Mu not only did not come out to clarify during this time, but even a blog, A press release has not been issued, let alone appeared in front of the media, and Li Mu has confirmed that he will attend today's press conference, and arranged a session to answer questions from reporters, so reporters want to ask Li Mu about the CSC club and those special remarks on the Internet in this link.

In addition, a small easter egg was attached to the invitation to the press conference, which mentioned that Li Mu and Spielberg would announce a deeper cooperation between the two sides at the press conference, so stay tuned.

This small easter egg is also very attractive to the media, and they want to know what kind of in-depth cooperation Li Mu and Spielberg will have while working together in "Flying Tigers".

In fact, this deeper cooperation,It is the matter of Makino Imaging and DreamWorks to jointly establish a film and television school in Huaxia,Li Mu hopes that Spielberg can mobilize Hollywood's top industry insiders,To help Huaxia cultivate a group of truly powerful actors,As well as film workers,Li Mu hopes to make this school a cradle for real talent training,I hope to make a certain contribution to the film and television industry in China。

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if this school can only train 180 group performances with good acting skills, it can be regarded as contributing a lot to Huaxia Film and Television.

The overall nature of the school, Li Mu's plan is to position itself as a completely private skills training college, the college is open to the whole society, and does not set any examinations and thresholds outside of professional courses, in other words, this school will only teach things related to film and television and acting in the future, and no other courses will be set up, completely ensuring that it is a place for pure skill learning.

The school does not have any degree, diploma, will only issue the school's own graduation certificate, this graduation certificate, will not be linked to the website of the education department, it only represents the major, Li Mu hopes that in the future, the students who come out of this school, can be recognized by the industry, so that the school's graduation certificate, become a representative of the strength of the industry, can do this, this school is really successful.

……

When the press conference was about to begin, the hundreds of reporters who set up long guns and short guns did not see the scene they expected.

They originally thought that on the stage at the press conference, there would be a long seat, Li Mu and Spielberg would sit upright together, and then there were many empty chairs next to them, Li Mu would first announce the start of the press conference, and after entering the main topic, the actors would be invited out one by one to meet everyone, and they must start with the supporting roles first, and finally introduce the long-awaited male and female protagonists, so that the answers that everyone has been looking forward to will be revealed one by one.

However, there was not a single chair or table on the stage of the launch, only a large background screen.

Subsequently, the staff who did not show up announced to everyone the official start of the press conference through the sound of the scene, and then, the lights of the whole audience dimmed, only the lights on the stage remained, and the background screen on the stage was pitch black and there was nothing.

At this time, Li Mu, who was wearing a black suit, came to the stage, he did not use a handheld microphone, but pinned a small microphone on the inside of the collar of the suit, and the transmitter was at the back waist under the cover of the suit.

Li Mu's appearance, let the scene burst into warm applause, recently he disappeared from the public eye for too long, no one knows what he is doing, some people say that he has been busy playing sports cars recently, some people say that he has been busy with a group of rich second generation recently, but no matter how the rumors spread, Li Mu is still the same Li Mu, he is wearing formal clothes without saying a word, so everyone feels a familiar aura.

In the applause, Li Mu bowed deeply to the audience, and when he raised his head, he said: "Thank you for coming so far to Spring City to participate in today's press conference, this is the first time we have transferred such a major press conference from a first-tier city to a second-tier city, many people may not be very clear why we want to arrange the conference in Spring City, this reason has to start from 1937." ”

Li Mu said, the background screen behind him lit up, and some old photos of the Chinese National Air Force began to be played in a slideshow style.

Li Mu walked to the side of the stage, accompanied by old photos, and introduced: "In 1937, Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China, and the then Nationalist Government decided to move the aviation school west to Chuncheng in order to preserve the Jianqiao Central Aviation School at that time, as well as the vitality of the National Air Force at that time. In terms of this movie and the history behind it, Spring City is where the story begins. ”

"The old pilots with these Chinese faces in the photo are basically all pilots of the National Air Force, Chennault was their instructor back then, and later formed the Flying Tigers, Chennault is the commander-in-chief of the Flying Tigers, so these National Air Forces have also been integrated into the sequence of the Flying Tigers, and the Flying Tigers resisted the Japanese invaders, so to speak, they were the backbone of the Chinese Air Force, at that time, the people called them the members of the Chinese Flying Tigers. ”

"After 60 years, we finally decided to put the story of "Flying Tigers" on the big screen and let the world know their heroic deeds back then, but after 60 years, these people in the photos, how are they doing now, and who really thinks about it?"

On the one hand, they didn't expect that Li Mu would not play according to the routine as soon as he came up, he didn't talk about movies, didn't talk about actors, but talked about history; on the other hand, Li Mu really asked them, even if they, as reporters, paid special attention to a big-budget movie like "Flying Tigers", but they paid attention to news, hot spots, and traffic, and they paid attention to the investment of this movie, and the cattle behind this movie. Pay attention to the cast of this movie, however, they have never paid attention to the prototype of this movie, and they have not paid attention to the real Flying Tigers, and how the people who have survived to this day are doing.

Everyone's hearts are more or less ashamed, Li Mu said lightly at this time: "Some time ago, we set up a charitable foundation, the name of this foundation is called 'Veterans Don't Die', the name is taken from a famous song in the United States during World War II, the name of the song is 'Veterans Never Die, Just Fade Away', the reason for this name is because we hope that these respectable veterans can never die, and their deeds, Their spirit will be passed on indefinitely, and these expectations are somewhat unrealistic, so back to the practical starting point, we set up this foundation to find the surviving veterans and ensure that they can have a carefree life in their old age. ”

When Li Mu finished saying this paragraph, everyone was surprised.

They didn't expect that Li Mu would set up another charitable foundation, and the most important thing was that they didn't receive any news.

Without waiting for them to think about it, Li Mu continued: "Some time ago, I disappeared from the public's view, and many people speculated about what I was doing, so I will tell you in person that some time ago, the Veterans Immortal Charity Foundation launched the first public welfare project, about the specific situation of this project, I will not repeat it for the time being, please watch a video first......
