Chapter 240: Full of Calculations

Cui Gengyou, who had already been mentally prepared, straightened the suit on his body and walked onto the stage unhurriedly, reached out to take the microphone in Jiang Digui's hand, and bowed to the audience sitting below. Naturally, there would be no embarrassing situation of stage fright, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he successfully attracted the attention of everyone present.

"As Jiang Digui said just now, the story of "Tai Chi Flag Flying" is not completely fictional, in a certain sense, it is the personal experience of the elders in my family! Among them, Lee Jin-tae's prototype is my uncle Choi Jong-sik, and Lee Jin-suk's prototype is his cousin Choi Jong-heon, and they are not brothers as described in the novel, but cousins. Their story takes place in the tumultuous years of 1950, when..."

In the next ten minutes, Cui Gengyou told the story that had been circulating within the family with emotion. Although everyone in the Cui family sitting in the audience knew what the original appearance of the story was, they all listened carefully now, without showing the slightest impatience, and a few more emotional ones secretly wiped the corners of their eyes, especially grandpa Cui Zhongguo, although he tried his best to show his composure, but the tears still kept flowing down, and he couldn't stop wiping it, even the old man Tai Grandpa sighed for a long time, muttering to himself from time to time, not knowing what he was talking about.

The Cui family's own expression is still like this, and other people who heard this story for the first time can't help but sigh, secretly applauding the sincere brotherhood between the two protagonists in the original story.

"My two uncles voluntarily stayed behind in order to cover the safe retreat of the entire company..."The story came to an end, and when it came to this, Cui Gengyou couldn't help but pause, the expression on his face showed a little sadness, and his tone was a little choked, and after taking a deep breath, he continued: "The ending is a little different from what is described in the novel, and both of them died on the battlefield in the end... Regrettably, none of them were able to leave their direct descendants, and they passed away so early. And those of us who are younger generations can only pay tribute to them through the art form of guò words and movies! ”

As soon as his words fell, the audience was silent for a few seconds, and then the applause rang out in a staggered manner, and then converged into a whole piece. Cui Zhenlong also stood up and applauded with the people around him, but unlike the others, the smile on his face couldn't be hidden, if it weren't for the dim lights around him, he couldn't see it really, and the attention of others was focused on the stage, if no one paid attention to him, it might cause public anger.

Of course, this does not mean that Choi Jin-ryong is cold by nature, it can only be said that even if it is a relative, there is a relationship between relatives, not to mention that when the two brothers Choi Jong-sik and Choi Jong-hun sacrificed their lives for the country, even Choi Jong-kook was only 9 years old. There is a generation between the two, where does Cui Zhenlong have a little impression of them? It's almost like a stranger who has never met, and the only thing that maintains the relationship between the two parties is blood.

Well, although Cui Zhenlong's use of dead people to hype up is a bit unauthentic, this whole incident is indeed carefully planned by this thing, and it is full of calculations!

Including the original story told by Cui Gengyou's mouth, it was also instructed by him behind his back, and some of the plots were also passed by his hands, and some materials were added to make this story more fleshed out in the plot, after all, the original story is relatively simple, and it is all relayed by Guò neighbors, and there will inevitably be some loopholes and mistakes from it.

It's just that what Cui Zhenlong didn't expect was that Cui Gengyou on the stage could tell this story so well and the effect was so obvious, which really made him a little overjoyed.

As for the reason why he did this, it is one thing to introduce topics such as "exploring the prototypes of the characters in the play" to promote the movie, and more importantly, there is another layer of intention, that is, to borrow the wide influence of novels and movies to leave an impression in more people's minds: In the previous generation of the Cui family, there were combat heroes like the Lee Zhentai brothers!

But don't underestimate this false name, sometimes it can play an invisible role beyond everyone's imagination!

As we all know, due to some historical legacies, South Korea has always been a country that attaches great importance to military strength, and all healthy adult male citizens are required to serve in the military. On the one hand, many people have a deep hatred for the current military service system, seeing it as a difficulty and a burden in their lives, but at the same time they are very protective of this system, and anyone who dares to evade military service by various means is likely to attract the spurning of the entire society.

Moreover, the South Korean government has always attached great importance to the issue of "national defense", and the propaganda of military service is not insignificant.

Cui Zhenlong's plan is to cater to this trend of thought, using the positive influence that has been successfully established in the novels and movies to brush up on the sense of zài and prestige, and to rely on the Cui family to the families of military martyrs.

Although this act may be purely self-singing, and there is no way to get official recognition, at least there is no evidence to deny the authenticity of this story, after all, in that war era, similar touching stories like those described in the movie scenes may have happened many, many famous and nameless, and most of them have been buried in the dust of history, no one will know, let alone fully explore and restore its original face.

……

Cui Gengyou's story was told, and while the audience's emotions were emotional, all the lights around him were dimmed, and the long-awaited film "Tai Chi Flag Flying" officially began to be released. During the screening, everyone was silent, quietly enjoying the joys and sorrows and clutches of the pair of brothers on the screen in that special era.

For almost two and a half hours, almost no one wanted to get up and leave, everyone was attracted by the plot, afraid of missing any wonderful shots, until the end of the film, the lights in the entire screening hall were turned on again, and the audience in the seats was still reminiscing about the plot and shock just now.

Almost everyone present has seen the novel version of "Tai Chi Flag Flying", but the war scenes expressed in the text are still not comparable to the special effects filmed in the movie, and the scenes of bullets, shell explosions, blood, and corpses everywhere give people a more intuitive feeling on the screen, even ordinary people who have never experienced war scenes can feel the cruelty and grief brought about by the war.

"Papapa~~" bursts of warm applause resounded throughout the screening hall again, especially the veterans who were invited to watch the movie, the look on their faces was even more excited, although even their bodies were trembling and a little unstable, but applauding extra hard, the recognition of this part of the people is already very revealing, as long as the media guides a little, it is a very good movie promotion selling point.

Cui Zhenlong quietly saw this scene in his eyes, and then he set his eyes on the government officials who were invited over, although due to the angle problem, he couldn't really see the expressions on their faces at the moment, and he couldn't hear what they were talking about, but judging from the actions of these officials and gentlemen who took the initiative to shake hands with Cui Gengyou and Jiang Digui, it can be seen that they also approve of this movie very much.

"Can you do something out of them?" Cui Zhenlong secretly pondered various possibilities.

But before he could come up with any clue, the old lady of the Cui family beside him grabbed Cui Zhenlong's hand and said excitedly: "Zhenlong, good boy, you have done a good job!" Very good!! ”

The old man has eaten more salt than ordinary people have eaten, although it is not clear what Cui Gengyou and his son want to do, but with years of experience, he instinctively realized that this is a great thing, a great thing that is beneficial to the entire Cui family!!
