Chapter 125: God of War

"The most important thing is that you lied to us that we had hope that we shouldn't have, and we thought about it when we knew we shouldn't. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "This is Meng Fan's words, and it is also the common idea of the cannon fodder, they want to win, but in the whole film, there is only a strategic victory on the Nantianmen when they fled, but in the end they still broke and fled.

Rachel said: "The cannon fodder wants to win, but have you ever given them a real victory?" You can't be too ruthless. Liang Xiaolong suddenly realized, yes, the previous plot has been reminding this point, so this battle must end with victory. Moreover, the time when this battle took place was the late stage of the Anti-Japanese War, the general trend of the Anti-Japanese War was about to be decided, and the whole country was about to enter the stage of a major counteroffensive, so there was almost no reason to lose this battle. Therefore, some people must be allowed to survive and witness this helpless and encouraging victory.

But there is one person who must die, Master Mak (Arthur. McLuhan), an old-fashioned and stubborn American who was annoying to his American colleagues, was sent to the cannon fodder regiment. But he taught the cannon fodder to use American weapons and equipment, and taught the cannon fodder the ability to survive on the battlefield, and he felt the same way about the situation of the cannon fodder, and was recognized as a good person by the cannon fodder. But good people always don't live long, and they were captured in a battle to grab supplies, and Yingzi had a fate, and he was also put in front of the battle, but this time the devil learned to be smart and fixed him with a cross to ensure that there would be no chaos.

The devils tried their best to torture him, and the cannon fodder was heartbroken and wanted to rush out to save him, but he rushed out, and without the cover of the tree fort, he would definitely die. Master Mak is a respectable American, he didn't ask for help, he used his mouth to stumble, but everyone knew that he was begging everyone to give him a good time.

And his death also promoted the growth of Collins, a firearms genius like the most sincere believer of Jesus, who never thought of using a firearm to kill. Today, for the first time, he aimed the cannon at someone, but this person is his own person, or his boss, robe, and fellow countryman, what kind of torture will he endure in his heart? This is how war is experienced, everyone must grow in the struggle between life and death, Collins finally stopped giggling like a waste, he picked up his gun, and opened a fierce fire on the Japanese army.

After thirty-eight days of perseverance, the great counteroffensive began, and it was a complete victory, but only a few poor people in the cannon fodder survived, their hearts ached, they were helpless, but they could say without guilt: "The debt has finally been paid off, we don't delay or owe it, even if we die, we can go to see the brothers under the nine springs with a clear conscience." ”

Liang Xiaolong breathed a sigh of relief again, and the script was finally completed in a hurry. Rachel sighed suddenly, she was a little unsatisfied, and always wanted to continue the story and give everyone a better ending. Jessica's eyes were red, she was moved by the story, by a group of great cannon fodder, and she really hoped to see the film released sooner.

In September, it has been a month since the release of "Terracotta Warriors", and the box office of the fourth week has come out, and the local government is still strong to win $29 million, but after all, it is the fourth week, and the just-released "Ransom Storm" is squeezed into the top spot of the box office list next week with a box office of $35 million. However, "Terracotta Warriors" is also proud enough, in 96, an annual year that has no shortage of good films and no shortage of blockbusters, it has won the box office list for three consecutive weeks, and it also occupies the runner-up position in the fourth week. Moreover, in the past four weeks, the total local box office of "Terracotta Warriors" has reached 208 million US dollars.

Overseas, it was released a week later than in China, and the box office was strong enough, sweeping another $57 million, and the total overseas box office was as high as $209 million. The three-week overseas release was $1 million higher than the domestic box office in four weeks, and the total box office has reached $417 million. Although, after this week, even if the hot screening period is over, there will be a relatively large gap in the box office, but there will definitely be a lot of revenue in the future, and Disney is ready to gradually reduce the theater chain and release the film eight weeks after the release.

"It's amazing." Liang Xiaolong hugged Rachel: ""The Mummy of the Tomb Robbery", "The Police and the Thief", "The Terracotta Warriors of the Tomb Robbery", baby, you have debuted less than two years ago, and you are the heroine of the more than one billion box office." Rachel snorted: "Of course, Miss Ben is a talented performer, do you estimate how much box office "Terracotta Warriors" can win in the end?" ”

Liang Xiaolong shook his head, the script has been heavily revised by him, and the quality of the film is far beyond the previous life "The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor", the box office of "The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" in one month of release exceeded the total box office of "The Tomb of the Dragon Emperor", but he couldn't estimate the final box office: "But according to this momentum, five or six billion US dollars is indispensable." Rachel smiled: "Five or six billion, the difference between five hundred million and six hundred million is not fifty and sixty, saying it is equivalent to saying it in vain." ”

Of course, Mark was the happiest, and he even called Julia again to thank Julia for taking Liang Xiaolong there last year, so that "Tomb Robbery" was successful, and Disney finally kicked off the development of blockbusters. Mark called again, thanked Liang Xiaolong fiercely, and then asked, "Man, is your script ready?" I'm in a hurry. Liang Xiaolong smiled: "Your dog nose is really smart, you just finished the script and you called to urge, I will go to your company tomorrow, you called the screenwriting team." ”

When Liang Xiaolong came to Disney empty-handed, Mark couldn't help but be depressed: "Captain, you didn't bring something?" Liang Xiaolong smiled: "Bring it, put it in your head." Mark smiled wryly, "It's in your head, but not in our head." Liang Xiaolong said: "Man, I'm just helping you find a theme, not writing a script for you." Stephen walked over and said with a smile, "That's it, Captain, let's talk about the subject matter first." ”

Liang Xiaolong coughed lightly, attracting the attention of the screenwriting team: "Whether it is a mummy or a terracotta army, the level of strength is relatively small, at most it is at the level of zombies, if you continue at this level, the audience will be aesthetically fatigued." So, I'm going to make a breakthrough at the level of power and lead the story to myths and legends. ”

Mark said: "Sequels are not easy to make, and there is often the fate of dogs continuing mink tails, if you want to make the series alive, you must continue to develop new themes and find new directions." In this regard, "Terracotta Warriors" has done a good job, not only has it won a lot at the box office, but its reputation is also much better than the first part, so I agree with the captain's statement. Stephen said: "If the story is led to myths and legends, then the special effects will have to be upgraded to another level, and more Wia will be used in the shooting, which will increase a lot of production costs." ”

"As long as the quality of the film is excellent, money is not an issue." Saying this, Mark is extremely confident, "Terracotta Warriors" alone can bring great profits to Disney, if you add paid on-demand, D distribution, etc., the total profit may exceed one billion dollars, will Disney still be stingy in this series? Moreover, if a series is going to be made alive and for a long time, it can't be made bad, otherwise the follow-up box office will be affected, so Mark cares more about the quality of the film than anyone else, rather than the extra tens of millions of dollars in production costs.

Stephen smiled: "Find a rich boss, do things is happy, just rush to you, I must also get rid of the fate of the dog's mink tail." Liang Xiaolong said: "Continuing with the topic, the background of the story I chose is in ancient times, as for how far away, I don't know, anyway, it must be older than our 5,000 Chinese history and culture." Stephen said, "That's too abstract, isn't it?" Liang Xiaolong said: "No, this period is very vivid, in myths and legends, this era is the origin era of our Chinese descendants." ”

In ancient times, Emperor Fuxi was in charge of education, educating human etiquette and animal husbandry, and the Yanhuang civilization entered the first stage. After Fuxi, he passed the throne of the human emperor to Emperor Yan, and Emperor Yan led the human race into the era of farming. However, during the period of Emperor Fuxi and Emperor Yan, their titles were only the co-masters of the world, not the real emperors.

The Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan was the real emperor, but his rise was bound to conflict with the Yan Emperor, the co-lord of the world at that time, so there was the Battle of Hanquan, where the Yellow Emperor finally defeated the Yan Emperor and unified the world, becoming the head of the Five Emperors. Of course, Emperor Yan did not die, after all, he was the eldest brother of the Yellow Emperor, he was sent to the south, in charge of the south, known as the Red Emperor; Emperor Fuxi was also appointed to rule the East and was known as the Green Emperor; The emperor also appointed his son Shaohao to take charge of the west, known as the White Emperor; He also appointed his grandson Zhuan Xuan to be in charge of the north, known as the Black Emperor; He himself sat in the center and was known as the Yellow Emperor. Since then, the world has been unified, and Chinese civilization has begun to enter the stage of take-off.

Although Chinese myths and legends are a bit chaotic and there are many systems, Liang Xiaolong chose a system that he preferred, and talked about it grandma, and talked about it directly, so that Stephen and his screenwriting team had a deeper understanding of the story. However, Stephen smiled wryly: "Man, the background of this story is too big, too complicated, and it is enough to make dozens of movies, so how can we start writing it?" Liang Xiaolong glanced at him: "That's what I said, I want you to have some understanding of the environment at that time, and the real story hasn't started yet." ”

"The cake seller, the relationship has been busy for half a day?" The screenwriting team couldn't help but look at each other, and listened to it all morning. Liang Xiaolong smiled: "If you don't know the background of the story, the things that are written are also messy. After a pause, Liang Xiaolong said again: "In the feudal era, the heir to the throne must have legitimacy, right?" You Americans have not entered the feudal era, and you don't have this history, but European and American countries must know that legitimacy is often the thing that determines the success or failure of the struggle for imperial power. ”

Stephen said: "The cultures of European and American countries are very close, and everyone can understand the concept of legitimacy. Liang Xiaolong said: "Emperor Yan was originally the co-lord of the world, and he was the master of the world, but now that the Yellow Emperor is in the world, Emperor Yan has become a courtier, and the monarch and the minister are reversed, there must be people who are not convinced, right?" Stephen said: "There is no doubt that in the history of every country, the struggle for imperial power has been very cruel. Liang Xiaolong said: "That's right, so there is a general under Emperor Yan who stood up, he went to the Yellow Emperor to seek justice for Emperor Yan, this person is the real god of war in our Chinese history." ”

ps: I finally finished writing the script of "My Captain, My Regiment", and I'm tired, and I'm going to enter the harvest season next. Half an hour later, the second chapter is automatically uploaded.
