Chapter 181: Watching the Film

At half past three in the afternoon, the people from Tomato Terrace came.

A total of seven people came, and the old acquaintance Hong Taoliu also came, he came to observe, and there was no key role in this transaction. Of course, it would be foolish to ignore him because of this.

The leader of the team is called Zhou Changxiong, the director of the purchasing department of Tomato Channel, who has the right to make decisions about this transaction, and the remaining five people are all senior publishers of Tomato Channel, responsible for the review of TV content.

TV series are an important part of TV stations, and it is also the key for advertisers to decide whether to invest or not.

Tomato Channel is one of the top provincial satellite TV stations in the country, and it has a strict review mechanism for film purchases.

The five distributors are responsible for rating the TV series, and there are six grades in total, with the highest grade A, which is the main event, and the lowest grade, F, which is the most important thing. To determine whether a new TV series can be screened on a TV station, the minimum review level is E level, and the TV station will not buy it below this standard.

Tomato Channel attaches great importance to the TV series "Soldier Assault", or rather, to the company Xingchen Haihai, so it must also perform a look of attaching great importance to "Soldier Assault".

Wang Xiaobai's side, in addition to him and Liu Wenya, Beijing Film Studio also sent a few people, one is the director of the TV series, named Kang Lei, the other is the distribution director named Wu Jun, and Zhou Hong is also in the team this time.

"Director Zhou, Director Hong, welcome to the sea of stars. Wang Xiaobai shook hands with several people warmly.

Kang Lei and Wu Jun also greeted them warmly.

After seeing the guest and host, Zhou Changxiong said: "Mr. Wu, Director Kang, Director Wu, let's not waste time, let's watch the film first, right?"

"Okay, let's watch the film. ”

A few people naturally have no opinions, the sooner they watch the film, the better.

In this TV series, the two families have invested a total of 10 million yuan, whether they can recover the cost, or how much they can earn, depends on whether this TV series can impress the film buying department of Tomato Channel.

A few people sat in a small theater in the sea of stars, and the TV series was soon played.

In a burst of pure music, the highlights of the TV series in the opening film flashed by, showing a ruin, dim light, dilapidated environment, and a sense of war everywhere.

"The enemy attacked in the gloomy morning, and our first line of defense was quickly torn apart. Blood and lives bought time, the main army groups were able to assemble and build a second line of defense, and the flood finally hit the dike, with heavy casualties on both sides. The unimaginable resources devoured by high-intensity wars, and the complex wars suddenly became simpler......"

As Xu Sanduo's narration began, a bloody war was presented naked in front of everyone's eyes.

Looking at the heavily armed soldiers, cowering in the corners and licking their wounds, it led people into an extremely cruel war at once.

At the end of the narration, the large-scale war scenes bring people the most primitive visual impact.

The continuous gunshots, the sudden skyrocketing fires, the ruins, the ruins, the soldiers who exchanged fire, and a grand war are so naked in people's vision.

I have to say that this scene still looks extremely shocking.

80% of the plot of the entire TV series was filmed in a real military camp, and the guns, equipment, and costumes used by all the characters in the play were provided by the army, which was extremely realistic.

The bullets shot by the actors in the "drill" are all empty cartridges, not as fake as in those police and gangster movies.

The plot of the first eight minutes of the TV series is very tight and coherent, which makes people who have watched this TV series for the first time think that this is a bloody war movie.

Shout.

A surface-to-air missile, passing through the dilapidated roof of the factory, with the sound of breaking the air, drilled into the ground of the factory, and a group of soldiers came with loaded guns and live ammunition.

Bang!

There was a loud bang, the missile exploded, and all the glass in the factory was shattered, and the scene was shocking.

In order to shoot this scene, the army specially used a small missile, which was shot in real action, so it looked both shocking and real.

This is also the most money-burning part of the entire TV series.

"Withdraw!"

Seeing the missile explode, Yuan Lang shouted at his three subordinates.

"Xu Sanduo, cover!"

"Yes!"

Xu Sanduo shouted loudly.

"Success!"

"I'll cover!" Cheng Cai shouted.

Just looking at the beginning, it is impossible to understand why Chengcai refused the order of his boss and chose to stay and cover.

"Withdraw!"

Yuan Lang shouted dissatisfiedly, thinking that Cheng Cai was playing a soldier who "does not abandon or give up", so his attitude was not very satisfied.

"Xu Sanduo, I'll wait for you!"

Chengcai shouted at Xu Sanduo unwillingly.

The two young and comrades-in-arms gave each other a thumbs up as a sign of encouragement while choosing their respective tasks.

Xu Sanduo was responsible for covering the complete withdrawal of the three from the battlefield, but this time it was obviously a trap, a large number of follow-up troops chased up, and the covering task could not be completed, so he chose to lure the enemy in the opposite direction to buy more time for the three comrades.

He was chased by a group of soldiers to the roof of the factory, which had a path but broke in the middle.

So, he found a plank, placed it horizontally at both ends, and prepared to walk over.

Halfway through, the pursuers caught up and fired into the sky, the plank broke, and he fell from a height of more than ten meters.

Chengcai saw Xu Sanduo falling from a high altitude through a sniper scope, his face was full of shock, worry and self-blame.

The camera cuts to Xu Sanduo, who is freefalling.

"I ...... I'm looking foreign again, and I'm making jokes again. I should have called for help, surrendered, and then spent the rest of the time in the enemy camp. ”

The close-up freezes on his face, blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, and then his neck tilted......

"Daddy!"

A heart-rending cry announced the official start of the feature film.

Compared with the tension, excitement and blood in the first ten minutes of the opening, the feature film is much inferior.

Xu Sanduo is a mediocre rural teenager to the extreme, since he was a child, under the high-pressure discipline of his father and brother, and under the bullying of his friends in the same village, he has a vino personality, has no opinions, and does not dare to eat on the table, and does not dare to raise his head when picking up vegetables. Among the three brothers, he was the most inconspicuous, and his father looked down on him the most, scolding him lightly, beating and scolding him at every turn, and he didn't even have the idea of running away except for bearing it with his head down.

It can be said that the word "nest" is not enough to describe him.

Such an image is completely two people from the smiling and sunny soldier king at the beginning, who is resolute and courageous.

However, the huge sense of disparity makes people a little curious.

Soon, something that will change the trajectory of Xu Sanduo's life is coming - the army has come to the village to recruit soldiers.

Just when everyone thought that Xu Sanduo was going to enlist in the army, fate played a joke on him again, and he was brushed off.

Compared with Chengcai's self-confidence and eloquence, he is inconspicuous.

Even the teacher who wrote him a letter of recommendation asked him with questioning language: "Are you fit to be a soldier?"

This is not only a question for the teacher, but also for all those who are watching this TV series.

His character is too far from people's inherent image of a soldier.

When visiting at home, he always kept his head down, and his submissive appearance was in stark contrast to the upright Shi squad leader who stood there.

The beating and humiliation of his father made Shi squad leader feel compassion. He took pity on this lowly, vino, slighted and scolded rural boy by his father, but the army has the rules of the army, and Xu Sanduo is not suitable for the army, this is the common opinion of everyone - he was brushed off.

This is what the first episode is about.

Except for the first ten minutes, this episode makes people feel aggrieved and uncomfortable to watch.

In the second episode, he impressed Squad Leader Shi with his sincerity and successfully enlisted in the army, but everyone was not optimistic about this soldier.

When facing the tank, he was so frightened that he raised his hands in surrender, and then Xu Sanduo narrated: "After a few months, I understand that the most disdainful thing about this unit is that I am making this action now......

This also indicates that Xu Sanduo's life in the army is difficult and bitter, just like his life in the countryside.

In the boot camp, he had the worst training results, and even when turning backwards, he would trip over his own feet, and his stupid appearance made everyone disdain.

At the speech at the end of the recruit training, Xu Sanduo, who had always been despised by others, showed his face, and he completely repeated Gao Cheng's words, which made Gao Cheng have some interest in this soldier who once raised his hand to surrender because he saw the tank, thinking that this was a good soldier seedling, and said excitedly: "Yo yo yo, what is the name of this soldier?"

"Report, Xu Sanduo!" replied Shi Jin.

"This soldier can do it!" Gao Cheng was very excited, this was the only compliment Xu Sanduo received from the recruit company, which made him crack his mouth and smirk.

"Do you understand what these words mean?" asked Gao Cheng with the entrance examination.

"I don't know what that means. ”

He replied in a sloppy and honest manner.

Gao Cheng's face was a little stiff, a soldier who could only memorize by rote, obviously did not meet his definition of a "good soldier".

"I don't know what it means, so what are you carrying him for?" Gao Cheng asked.

"I'll memorize it, so I'll write a letter to my father when the time comes. He said honestly.

This time, Gao Cheng couldn't laugh anymore, and Shi Jin, who was also happy because of Xu Sanduo's dazzling performance, also put away his smile.

The whole conference, because of this sentence, the atmosphere became weird.

"Shi Jin!"

"Here!"

"Come here. ”

"You platoon, copy the secrecy rule three times tonight!"

Because of Xu Sanduo's words, everyone was punished.

This also made Xu Sanduo's body completely marked as a "soldier".

In the third episode, the moment that decides everyone's fate begins.

The fate of Xu Sanduo and Chengcai, two fellow countrymen, is developing in their respective directions.

The excellence of success is something that Xu Sanduo can't learn.

He was assigned to the fifth class on the grassland, the place where his dream fell, and where his career as a soldier began.

On the way to the third company and the fifth squad, he saw planes, tanks, modern troops, steel and blood, which gave him a wireless fantasy about his military career. From his happy face, people can feel his love for the army and his yearning for a bloody life.

In the third company and the fifth squad, he finally realized that the army is also different from the army.

There are iron-blooded troops such as the Seventh Steel Company that shed blood and sweat for honor, and there are also troops such as the Red Third Company and the Fifth Squad that are lazy, unorganized, and undisciplined because they have been forgotten.

In the third company and fifth squad, in a group of veteran oilers, he adhered to his last duty as a soldier.

He runs five kilometers of cross-country every day, in the loess of the sky, practicing the right steps that the recruits can't even learn well, tidying up housekeeping, he works hard to live, strives to live meaningfully, and does meaningful things.

And his "unsociability" also made the fifth class collectively reject him, and even the squad leader Lao Ma, who had always tried to be as gentle as possible to him, tried to restrain his anger towards him.

His comrades-in-arms did not understand him, were bored, and even full of ridicule and a great sense of ceremony, and awarded him a mobile red flag of "best housekeeping".

And he didn't understand whether this was ridicule or encouragement, he still went his own way, and in this process, Lao Ma's unintentional words mobilized his enthusiasm - he wanted to build the road, and in the voice of incomprehension, in the obstruction of his comrades-in-arms, he built the road in his own way.

And his behavior also completely touched Lao Ma, a former good soldier, and he was determined to correct the style of the entire squad, but the results were extremely poor.

They were a school of salted fish, and they all resigned themselves to their fate.

No one can change them.

And here, the content of the first five episodes has been finished, and in the entire small theater, a group of people are silent, and they have an intuitive understanding of this TV series.
