The camera gradually zoomed out, and the audience saw a photo of the People's Liberation Army carrying Xiao Guangming hanging on the wall, and the time had come to 2007, 31 years later. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The camera gradually pulled out of the room and advanced towards the city, the camera advanced to Wang Luodan's house, Wang Luodan was cooking, and then the camera was pushed to Ji Chen's house, Ji Chen was talking to his son on the phone, and then it was pushed to Zhang Jingchu's house, she and Hu Jun reorganized their family, and their family was taking a family photo.

Finally, the camera passed through Zhang Jingchu's house and slowly pushed towards the earthquake monument, and at the same time, Wang Fei's ethereal voice sounded, singing the "Heart Sutra".

For the music at the end, Zhang Ran thought about it for a long time, and finally adopted the same way as Feng Xiaogang, using the sad song "Heart Sutra" to surpass the souls of the dead who died in the earthquake. Of course, in order to get the copyright of this song, the crew took a lot of twists and turns, because this song involves the copyright of several companies, and finally the crew found Wang Fei, she knew that the movie "Tangshan Earthquake" was going to be used, and without saying a word, she agreed to let the movie use it for free, and finally "Heart Sutra" was able to appear at the end of the movie.

On the screen, the text "Express deep condolences to the 240,000 compatriots who died in the Tangshan earthquake" appeared, and then the list of main creators began to cross, and the film ended.

The ethereal melody of "Heart Sutra" was still ringing, and the whole scene was extremely silent, there was no sound at all, as if all the audience was immersed in the music, and as if they were worried that their voices would disrupt the solemn atmosphere of the scene.

The first to stand up was Zhao Guoqiang, secretary of the municipal party committee, who raised his hands lightly, and then slammed them together, and crisp applause sounded in the empty stadium, looking a little lonely. After his applause, the whole world came to life, and the people around him stood up one after another and began to applaud, and finally the audience collectively stood up and clapped their hands vigorously.

More than 10,000 spectators applauded in unison, and the applause was like a tsunami, soaring from the stadium to the sky.

No one organized or arranged, and the more than 10,000 spectators at the scene could hardly suppress their inner excitement, so they could only use applause to vent their inner emotions!

For many audiences at the scene, they began to pay attention to the preparation of the movie, many of them have been extras to the crew, donated props, and they thought of the impact on the visual impact of the movie, but they didn't expect the story to be like this, the stories in the movie are all true, the rescue of the steep river, the delivery of pregnant women, the rescue of children, etc., are all heard or seen by everyone.

After the Tangshan earthquake, there was a movie "After the Blue Light Flashes" that showed the earthquake in China, but the movie was scolded at the time because it was too unreal, such as a worker buried under the mine, still thinking about the revolution and promoting production. Therefore, after many citizens heard that Zhang Ran was going to shoot "Tangshan Earthquake", their biggest expectation was that the movie should be real and not made up blindly, and Zhang Ran did it!

It is precisely because of the truth that the movie is extraordinarily powerful, and they are really moved!

The leaders of the General Bureau sitting in the front row also saw tears in their eyes and applauded vigorously. They have absolute trust in Zhang Ran's ability, and they all believe that he can make this movie well and make it brilliant, but when they finished watching the movie, they realized that the movie was much better than they imagined, and more importantly, they found that the main theme movie in China can still be made like this.

Although "Tangshan Earthquake" has achieved the ultimate in domestic films in terms of special effects, pictures, sound effects, etc., and can even be said to have reached the Hollywood level, this is not the biggest highlight of the movie, its most rare thing is that it shows what domestic main theme films are unwilling to face in the past - human nature!

It's not that the previous domestic main theme movies have no humanity, but the previous domestic main theme movies have emphasized highlighting the collective and ignoring the individual, and often the leader waves his hand "Comrades, we have to unite", and then everyone becomes a fearless warrior, fighting the heavens and the earth.

"Tangshan Earthquake" gives up the outdated narrative mode of the previous main theme movies, shows the joys and sorrows of the little people who are coerced into the torrent of history, amplifies the role and value of family affection, and hits the softest place in people's hearts.

A calm smile appeared on Zhang Ran's face at this moment, and the applause of the audience made him believe that the film was successful, and the stone in his heart completely fell to the ground, and he felt that his choice was correct.

In fact, Zhang Ran's original idea for the movie came from a report that a boy was buried in the Tangshan earthquake for seven days and was finally rescued. At the time of the earthquake, the boy's father was out of town, and after learning about the Tangshan earthquake, the father took a ride all the way back to Tangshan, exhumed the remains of his relatives, and finally rescued his son who was buried in the ground.

Zhang Ran plans to use this incident as a basis to make a film about the mother and daughter returning to Tangshan after the earthquake, and finally rescuing her son from the rubble, similar to Iranian film master Abbas's "Life and Flow", called "Homecoming".

This is a typical road movie shooting method, through the state of all kinds of people after the earthquake, to reveal human nature, in terms of artistry, may be better than the current shooting method, but this shooting is relatively weak, and there is no way to reproduce the tragedy of the earthquake in all directions.

The biggest problem with Feng Xiaogang's "Tangshan Earthquake" in the previous life is that the name of the movie is "Tangshan Earthquake", and the audience thinks that the movie is a panoramic reflection of the Tangshan earthquake, including the situation of Tangshan before the earthquake, the damage of the earthquake to the entire Tangshan, and the rescue of people in the disaster area after the earthquake. But in fact, Feng Xiaogang's "Tangshan Earthquake" only tells a family in the Tangshan earthquake, and mainly tells the story after the earthquake, so many viewers feel that this movie is the title party.

Zhang Ran also faced the same problem after changing the name of the movie from "Going Home" to "Tangshan Earthquake", so the script was changed many times, and finally on the basis of Liu Heng's collection of a large number of real materials and interviews with many earthquake survivors, it was expanded into three lines, showing the earthquake from different perspectives and showing different people in the earthquake. The same family, but divided into three lines to develop separately, and finally converge at one point, and this point represents hope!

I don't dare to say anything else, but at this point, Zhang Ran dares to say that his movie is much stronger than Feng Xiaogang's.

Zhang Ran turned his head to look and found that the crew members were all in tears, very excited, and applauding desperately.

When they got the script, the actors knew that "Tangshan Earthquake" would be a very good movie, and the whole story was real, delicate and moving, which was a groundbreaking work for Chinese films. However, when they sat on the IMAX giant screen and watched the movie, they were still deeply shocked.

At this moment, they have two feelings in their hearts, one is that they are glad that they participated in this movie, and the other is pride, and it is really a great honor for them to be able to participate in this movie.

The stage was lit up with soft blues lights, Zhang Liangying walked on the stage and began to sing the propaganda song "Homecoming" of "Tangshan Earthquake", and the moving song once again infected the audience.

Just when Zhang Liangying was singing, Zhang Ran and the main actors of the crew came to the back of the stage, waiting to meet the audience.

Soon, after the song was sung, the host Jin Wei's voice sounded: "Please film director Zhang Ran below!"

The entire gymnasium suddenly burst into thunderous applause, overwhelming shouts, and crazy screams resounded over the gymnasium, and the audience greeted Zhang Ran with great enthusiasm.

Zhang Ran felt the applause and cheers of the scene, he knew that this moment belonged to him, walked to the center of the stage with steady steps, and bowed deeply to the audience.

The atmosphere of the scene was suddenly like explosives being detonated, and it was like the scene of a concert, the shouts and screams almost collapsed the stadium, and the atmosphere was suddenly pushed to the peak.

"Let's invite movie screenwriter Liu Heng!"

"Next, please invite Li Na's actor Wang Luodan!"

……

"Finally, please invite Yu Hong's actor Zhang Jingchu!"

Zhang Jingchu walked onto the stage in small steps, stood beside Zhang Ran, and bowed to the audience.

When the main creators of the crew came to the stage, Jin Wei walked over with the microphone and said affectionately: "We experienced a baptism of the soul just now, and I believe that everyone's hearts are heavy, but they are very warm." Let's give a round of applause to all the creators again, thank you for bringing us such a spiritual journey. ”

All the audience at the scene stood up, and the whole scene erupted in tsunami-like applause, and the sound was so loud that Zhang Ran could even feel the ground trembling.

"I think each of you has a belly to say. Jin Wei looked at the main creator of the crew, and his eyes fell on Wang Luodan, "Wang Luodan, I especially like Li Na played by you, come first!"

"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Luodan, playing Li Na in the movie. Wang Luodan bowed to the audience, "It is a very lucky thing for me to be able to participate in this movie, I happened to be back from a business trip when I got the script, I watched it at 3 o'clock in the morning, and I saw 5:30 in one breath, I sat on the bed and cried, crying so much that I almost collapsed! I really thank Mr. Zhang for giving me this opportunity! In addition, in the process of experiencing life, as well as in the process of filming, we have received selfless help from many people, thank you very much!"

Then the other actors in the crew also told their feelings and conveyed their gratitude to the audience. The audience looked at the actors on stage and remembered their wonderful performances in the movie, so the applause was even more enthusiastic and endless.

But when it was Song Zhu'er's turn, she hugged Zhang Ran's leg and said, "I love my father and mother in the play, and I hope to live with them forever." Not to be outdone, the little actor who played his younger brother Guangming immediately hugged Zhang Ran's other leg: "I also love my father and mother in the play!" The audience laughed and felt that the two little guys were so cute.

After the other members of the crew finished talking, in the expectation of everyone, Zhang Ran took the microphone and said with a smile: ""Tangshan Earthquake" is not only a movie for me, but also a homework.

The audience replied loudly amid applause and laughter: "Hit!"

Hearing the loud answer of the audience, Zhang Ran's smile on his face bloomed with a happy smile, and he bowed deeply to the audience again.

At the premiere ceremony, there was a message board called "Aftermath of the Earthquake", and many viewers wrote down their feelings on the message board after the premiere.

"The film is very humane, not about pain, so that I can walk out of the theater with a smile after watching it!"

"I admire Director Zhang Ran very much, just as the director said, walking out of the theater is cherished and warm, not painful!

"The film was so real, the same I was going through at the time. ”

"I want to watch the movie again, it's so classic, I give it a full score!"

"When I brought my daughter to see it today, many people persuaded me that it was not suitable, for fear that my daughter would not be able to stand it. But I think I should still bring her, that's what I've been through, and I'm going to let her know. ”
