"What was our first film?" Li Shijing asked Xia Jun, Xia Jun hugged Li Shijing, touched her stomach and said, "I haven't thought about it yet." ”

"Didn't you tell me before that you were going to shoot some pleasant goat?" Li Shijing turned her head to look at Xia Jun and asked, "The baby is about to be born, so you don't shoot yet." Xia Jun's gaze was a little narrow, and he sneered: "This, don't we have no animators now?" After a few years, with technology, we will definitely make a pleasant goat to come out for our baby to see. ”

Pleasant Goat?

The image is quite cute.,It's just that the plot is a little lower.,I don't have that technology now.。

"So what are we going to shoot?"

"Look again! Anyway, it will take a while for the cinema, maybe we will find a good theme in a few days! Xia Jun said.

With the establishment of the East China Film Studio, and Xia Jun began to open cinemas everywhere, Zhongsheng and Huasheng Group also launched their studios.

Director, photographer, editor, prop master, lighting engineer, makeup artist Xia Jun has trained a batch, and the film shooting and screening all use the most advanced technology, and the technology has been preemptively registered by Xia Jun.

The film department of East China University can already shoot real financial films, which has come to the forefront of the world in this era when it is still black and white and false color films.

The real color film was "Vanity City" shot in the United States in 1935, and the previous color films were relatively fake colors, incomplete and unnatural.

The Film Department of East China University does not teach color film, but also teaches black and white film.

Since there are very few things to teach in college, these students graduated quickly, and the next thing is to see them learn on their own, and it is precisely because of their graduation that Xia Jun opened the East China Studio.

Zhongsheng Group and Huasheng Group also opened studios, and all three studios had the same equipment, that is, equipment for shooting black and white films, as well as equipment for shooting color films.

As for what movie to make, Xia Jun has no plans yet.

The studios of Zhongsheng and Huasheng have finalized the script and started filming, and Zhongsheng is preparing to shoot a martial arts film according to the suggestion of Lin Hua, a graduate director of the film department. Huasheng Company is preparing to make a romance film according to the advice of their female director Feng Ruzhen.

Zhongsheng Group's martial arts film is called "Huo Yuanjia", which takes Mr. Huo Yuanjia, who has just passed away for two years, as the theme of the movie.

Huasheng Group's romance film is called "True Love", which tells the love story of a returning international student and a rich lady, the hero and heroine face an arranged marriage, and finally choose to elope, and finally they came to the three autonomous provinces of East China and began their happy life...... The starting point of these two movies is good, one is a patriotic theme, and the other is a free marriage theme, which has also been affirmed by Xia Jun.

So what did East China Studios shoot?

At this time, the Fourth Reading Force Regiment, which entered Hunan to suppress bandits, submitted an operational report, reporting that the soldiers of the 03rd platoon and 01st squad of the 0526 Company of the 065th Battalion of the Fourth Reading Force Regiment in East China outwitted the bandits in Yuling Mountain, killing 48 local notorious bandits in one fell swoop, capturing 156 people, and seriously wounding two of themselves, but no casualties.

Xia Jun looked at it and clapped his hands and exclaimed, "This is good!" It's better to make a gangster movie. ”

"Bandit films?" Li Shijing took the report from Xia Jun in confusion, and after reading it, she asked Xia Jun, "Do you just shoot according to this report?" ”

"Yes, that's right." Xia Jun nodded, he waved his hand excitedly and said: "This film can first convey the determination of our East China Autonomous Political Axe to suppress bandits, so as to warn people not to gang bandits." Then we can publicize the image of our East China Army and our East China Autonomous Political Axe. ”

Li Shijing smiled: "That's not bad, husband, I support you." ”

…… Xia Jun called the 4th Reading Regiment that day, ordering them to report the detailed battle process and the soldiers of the platoon that fought against the bandits back.

This order confuses the Fourth Reading Force, what is the Führer going to do?

After thinking about it for a long time, I still don't understand!

The 4th Reading Regiment quickly submitted a detailed report on the operation, and at the same time sent back the thirteen members of the squad, and of course, the two seriously wounded soldiers had been sent to Hangzhou for recuperation after being rescued.

The detailed combat report was not too complicated, and the soldiers of squad 01 received information from the villagers in a small village in eastern Hunan, and under the leadership of a villager, squad 01 decided to go to Yuling Mountain to suppress the bandits.

They had lurked in the Yuling Mountains at night, and after observing the bandits on the mountain for two days, they touched them from the front on the third day.

A fierce exchange of fire ensued with the bandits, and this fierceness referred to the intense firepower of the 01 squad, and the bandits' return fire was very weak.

Squad 01 killed 48 bandits on the spot with submachine guns and BZ-26 light machine guns, and later captured 156 bandits.

Soon Xia Jun had a rough script in his heart.

At the beginning of the film, the footage of the 4th Reading Regiment's battle against the Beiyang Army in Hanyang was filmed, and there are film and television materials on this in the archives.

After the peace talks between the north and the south, the Fourth Reading Force retreated from Hubei and entered Hunan a month later to suppress bandits.

Then Class 01 came on, and they were sent to a small mountain village to investigate the bandits, and in this small mountain village, they met the people who were living a difficult life.

The soldiers in the squad took out medicine to treat the people's illnesses and left some food rations for the needy families.

The performance of the soldiers of the East China Army won the trust of the people, and a young man named 'Ah Hu' in the village recommended himself and was willing to take them to Yuling Mountain, where the bandits were entrenched.

The strength of a squad was too small in the face of the large number of bandits in Yuling Mountain, but when they asked for support from their superiors, their superiors replied to them that the company headquarters was participating in the encirclement and suppression of another group of bandits with thousands of people, and it was temporarily impossible to allocate troops to support them, so they were asked to stay in the local area to investigate the bandits in Yuling Mountain.

Class 01 was ordered to infiltrate Yuling Mountain and began to reconnoiter the bandits in order to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

However, then, they found out that the bandits had kidnapped a group of women on the mountain, and in the face of those helpless sisters, Class 01 decided to conduct a raid on Yuling Mountain that night after an internal meeting.

Then the raid began...... After a fierce gun battle, the well-equipped and well-trained squad 01 successfully exterminated the bandits in Yuling Mountain, not only capturing a large number of bandits, but also rescuing the women of good families who were tied up on the mountain.

When they also paid the price, two teammates were seriously wounded in the fight to cover others.

At this critical moment, the company headquarters finally arrived, and the medical soldiers quickly rescued the two soldiers.

After that, Ah Hu, who led the way, received a reward of 100 yuan, and the bandits were sent to the East China Military Court, which sentenced half of the bandits to execution, and the rest to prison...... If you want to shoot a little more tear-jerking, you can let two of them die from the wounded, and the scene of the martyrs' cemetery is filmed in the first part of the film. The martyrs' cemetery in Jian'an is beautifully built, the greenery is well done, and every funeral is very grand.

The film ends with the final declaration of the presiding judge of the military court.

"The East China Autonomous Government Axe hereby warns any bandits with severe punishments that China will not allow them to exist, and that the East China Autonomous Government will strike at these bandits with thunder until they disappear and perish......"

And then the film ends!

This film is called "The Battle of the Bandits", and after the script was preliminarily written, Xia Jun was thrown to the East China Studio, so that they could start shooting immediately.

During the filming process, it must be noted that the secrets of the East China Army's possession of walkie-talkies must not be exposed, and as for other individual weapons, at this time, all countries know a little bit about it, and there is nothing to hide.

Weapons such as snipers and grenadiers are also not available.

East China Studios got the script and immediately began to organize the filming of this debut film, directed by Su Ziyi, the best student in the first class of the film department, who had performed very well in the shooting of promotional films.

………… Arabian Peninsula.

In the past month or so, the Arabian Peninsula has undergone tremendous military changes.

The Rashid family suddenly hired a Chinese mercenary army, allowing them to gain a foothold in the fertile agricultural regions of the southwestern Arabian Peninsula.

Subsequently, the Rashid family trained 3,000 soldiers and began an attack on Najd, the nest of the House of Saud, with Chinese mercenaries.

In this military offensive, there is no doubt that the House of Saud suffered a terrible defeat.

With the cooperation of the mercenary group, the Rashid family occupied Najd without much effort, and then began a full-scale war with the Saud family.

The Rashid family, who had gained the population, united several large tribes and conscripted 4,000 soldiers, most of whom were relatively poorly equipped, and did not have as many weapons as they had shipped from China.

But that's enough to overwhelm the Saud family.

In this desert-filled land, the Saud family also received decent equipment from the British, but they did not have the money to buy it in large quantities.

The Rashid family, on the other hand, received aid from China, as well as military support.

After the well-equipped mercenary group landed in the Arabian Peninsula, trucks and other motorized equipment also arrived, which allowed them to start a rapid sweep across the Arabian Peninsula.

The House of Saud has established a consolidated rule in the Arabian Peninsula, and their people are loyal, but with the massacre policies of the Rashid family.

The Rashid family did not want to see the existence of these loyal Saud family members, so they resorted to brutal methods, and their methods were effective.

Because the population of the Arabian Peninsula itself is not large.

This method was also used by the Saud family, who, after conquering a tribe, would commit acts such as robbery, although it did not evolve to the level of massacre.

Not everyone is loyal to the House of Saud, and there are still many tribes who have taken refuge in the Rashid family.

The Rashid family grew rapidly in a short period of time, and after contributing to Najd, the end of Saudi Arabia was not far off, and the mercenary group raided ten of their settlements within a month.

After that, the army of the Rashid family followed behind and looted.

In order to entrap the mercenary group, the Rashid family distributed most of the looted property to the mercenary group, which was naturally unkind to the mercenary group and accepted it all.

But they have a principle, that is, they do not rob or forcibly destroy women. As for filial piety, that's another story.

The Saud family could not withstand the blow and expressed fear of the sudden appearance of the Chinese mercenary group, which made the Saud family realize that they had provoked the unrelenting target, but at the same time they were angry that China was meddling in the Arabian Peninsula.

What's the use of anger! People are not fighting the same way.

In order to salvage the situation, the Saudi family sent personnel to infiltrate the British reserve and began to sue for peace with the East China Commercial Hall, so the East China Commercial House sent a radio call back to China to ask the chairman of the committee.

"Chairman, the Saud family wants us to withdraw from the Arabian Peninsula, and they can agree to any conditions." The manager of the merchant hall reported to Xia Jun.

"Let's withdraw our troops, let them eat shit, let Liu Xiaoguo continue to intensify the attack, and let the Rashid family occupy the two big circles marked on the map and those ports." Xia Jun ordered.

"Yes."

Xia Jun then picked up the phone and ordered the East China Petroleum Company to transport the oil extraction equipment to the Arabian Peninsula and immediately start exploiting the Ghawar oil field.

The Ghawar oil field is located in the east of Saudi Arabia, about 500km east of the capital Riyadh, with proven reserves of 10.74 billion tons and an annual production of 280 million tons, accounting for 30% of the entire Persian Gulf region, making it the world's largest oil field. The oil well is a self-blowing well, with a small wax content of crude oil, mostly light oil, and a freezing point of less than -20 °C, which is convenient for transportation.

For the exploitation of the world's largest oil field, Xia Jun already has a plan, that is, to build an oil pipeline to the Rastanura oil port (the largest oil port in the future) for export.

Such an oil field alone is enough for China to use for decades.

However, Saudi Arabia is not the only big oil field, Saudi Arabia accounts for two of the world's top ten oil fields.

However, Saudi Arabia will not be called that name in the future, and it should be called the Arab Kingdom of Rashid in the future. Another large oil field is the Safaniya oil field, located in the northeastern waters of Saudi Arabia, with proven reserves of 3.32 billion tons.

In addition to these two large oil fields, there are many other small oil fields.

The East China Petroleum Company has acquired its oil exploration rights, and Rashid Arabia will be able to collect any tax revenue from the oil extraction and processing.

Basically, the Rashid family sold the future of the entire country.

Xia Jun's early equipment for East China Petroleum Company is equipment for oil extraction of 12 million tons per year, and the oil extraction capacity of contemporary Britain is lower than that of Jiangsu Oilfield of 1.5 million tons.

In order to cooperate with oil exploitation, Xia Jun opened the exchange platform and began to check the information of the oil tanker.

According to the deadweight tonnage, oil tankers can be divided into:

(1) Small oil tankers (less than 6,000 dwt), mainly carrying light oil (2) Medium oil tankers (0.6~3.5 dwt 10,000 tons), mainly carrying refined oil (3) Large oil tankers (3.5~16 dwt tons), mainly carrying crude oil, occasionally carrying heavy oil (4) Giant and super oil tankers (VLCC of more than 160,000 dwt, ULCC of more than 400,000 dwt), specially carrying crude oil.

The structure of the oil tanker is relatively simple, and it is also driven by a steam engine, so the exchange price is relatively low.

The exchange price for a medium tanker is 1 ton = 10 points.

The exchange price for a large tanker is 1 ton = 30 points.

The exchange price for a jumbo tanker is 1 ton = 50 points.

In order to be less noticeable, Xia Jun chose to exchange 50 large oil tankers with a capacity of 20,000 tons, which can be used to transport 1 million tons of crude oil to the mainland every month.

Xia Jun did not plan to refine oil in Rashid Arabia, and it was better to ship it back to the local oil refining.

Transportation is not a problem, and when the shipbuilding capacity is a little stronger, tankers of larger tonnage can be slowly added, so that people will not be confused.

After all, if a 400,000-ton giant oil tanker is exchanged now, it will definitely be targeted, and then a very puzzling question will come out, where are these oil tankers made?

Obviously, no one in this era has built such a large oil tanker.

The oil tanker with a capacity of 50,000 tons of oil was available in this era, although the cargo ship was relatively large only more than 20,000 tons and nearly 30,000 tons, but the structure of the oil tanker was simple, and it was not only used to transport oil, but also used to transport other liquids.

12 million tons of crude oil per year, which is currently very enough for consumption. If he wants, Xia Jun can even be extravagant enough to use the oil to generate electricity.

(To be continued)
