The U.S. Embassy in Shanghai confirmed the authenticity of the documents provided by Lin Zixuan, which means that this is indeed an American film company, and Lin Zixuan is only responsible for business management.

In the face of the protests of the Japanese, the personnel of the US embassy were quite dissatisfied.

As the diplomatic organs of the United States in China, they have the obligation to protect the interests of their own companies in China, and there is no reason to help the Japanese to bully their own national companies.

Moreover, China's largest film company belongs to the United States, which is the best proof of the spread of American culture in China.

The U.S. Embassy knew that this was a film about the Sino-Japanese War, but what was there was and it had nothing to do with the United States.

They replied to the Japanese that the movie had not yet been made, and that they would talk about it after it was made, and if the Japanese thought that there was an insult to Japan in the movie, then they would come up with evidence.

It is unacceptable to maliciously accuse American studios without evidence.

At the same time, the U.S. Embassy reminded Lin Zixuan that it is better not to have controversial plots in the film, which will cause disputes between the two countries.

Fortunately, there is no film censorship in this era, otherwise it would be difficult for Lin Zixuan's movies to be released.

The Japanese did not expect that the Shanghai Star Film Company would become an American company, which they did not expect.

If it were a Chinese company, they would still be able to put pressure on the Chinese warlords, but it would be too late for the movie to have a bad impact.

They want to come and go, then they have to look for evidence first.

The Japanese decided to keep an eye on Star Films, inquire about the filming of the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, and it is best to get the movie script.

At Star Films. Preparations are well underway.

The main prop in "Jiawu Fengyun" is the warship, however. It is simply impossible to find a real warship in Shanghai to shoot a movie, there are not even scrapped warships.

Lin Zixuan found a smuggling boat through Feng Jingyao's connections. This smuggling ship was converted from an abandoned warship.

There was also a device for firing shells in the smuggling boat, but it was no longer usable and became an ornament.

Fortunately, the crew only borrowed a smuggling boat to shoot the scene of the naval battle, but there was no problem.

Moreover, no one in the crew can drive a smuggling ship, and the crew of the smuggling ship will control it.

Lin Zixuan talked to them and found that this era was really chaotic.

They generally smuggle arms and cigarettes, which are the two most profitable, and Shanghai is the second largest smuggling terminal in China. China's largest smuggling terminal is Guangzhou, as well as the coastal areas of Fujian, where smuggling is also prevalent.

Most of their arms came from guns exchanged by warlords and foreign garrisons in various places.

Now that the warlords are fighting, it is a good opportunity for them to make a fortune, if it weren't for Feng Jingyao's relationship, they would never make a movie here, but fortunately, there is only one month, and the right is a temporary rest.

This is a world that Lin Zixuan has never been exposed to.

He came with Uncle Xiang, who was Feng Jingyao's spokesperson. The old rivers and lakes on the beach.

On the way back, Uncle Xiang persuaded Lin Zixuan not to mess with the Japanese, the Japanese are not easy to mess with.

They still have some scruples. If you offend them ruthlessly and do everything, it is not uncommon for you to commit murder. It's not worth fighting with them.

This is also the opinion of most people in Shanghai, who think that Lin Zixuan became famous at a young age. Young and vigorous, too aggressive.

This side just fell out with the Soviets. I turned around and did it with the Japanese again.

Chinese pay attention to harmony, especially businessmen, who are well aware of the principle of harmony and wealth, and Lin Zixuan's approach is a sign of immaturity, at least think about his family.

Uncle Xiang is Feng Jingyao's side, and what he said is obviously what Feng Jingyao meant.

Feng Jingyao may not care about Lin Zixuan, but he doesn't want his daughter to be widowed, now that Lin Zixuan is famous, some things are not good to say in person, so he asked Uncle Xiang to pass the word.

How Lin Zixuan doesn't understand the truth, sometimes he wants to go with the flow and live his life well.

He knows the general trend of history, can prepare early, avoid disasters, and ensure the glory and wealth of this life, without worrying about food and clothing.

But there are some things that he can't help but do, and he doesn't want to regret it later.

But you still have to be careful in the future, after all, he is a family and a family, and it will not be good if it affects his family.

Lin Zixuan coped with Uncle Xiang and returned to the film company.

Zheng Zhengqiu has no problem here, just shoot according to the normal situation, the key is Hong Shen's side, you can't shoot the scene of the Lushun Massacre in Shanghai, it's easy to expose.

Hong Shen is still engaged in drama, teaching in the Department of Foreign Languages of Fudan University, and is also the head of the Fudan Drama Club.

He planned to take the troupe to perform in other places, and in this name he went to Guangzhou, which also has a filming venue, as long as he brought shooting equipment.

He even thought of shooting some footage on the spot in Lushun.

This idea was dissuaded by Lin Zixuan, at this time Lushun was still under the control of the Japanese, and it was too risky to go to Lushun, he didn't want to kill people for the sake of making a movie.

At the end of the day, safety is the most important thing.

Lin Zixuan and Hong Shen talked about an idea.

"Jiawu Fengyun" is a black-and-white film, and he wanted to add a set of color shots, that is, the image of a little girl dressed in red during the Lushun massacre.

Let this bright red figure be the only color in the movie and leave a deep impression on the audience.

This is what he saw from the later "Schindler's List".

At the time of the German Holocaust, there was a little girl in red among the Jews, which contrasted sharply with the black and white scene around her, which was extremely infectious and pierced the hearts of the audience.

Lin Zixuan wants to achieve this effect, so that the audience can remember this scene and remember the atrocities of the Japanese after watching the movie.

Hong Shen thinks it's good, this may be the most classic shot in the whole movie, he must shoot it well.

Although Shanghai Star Film Company has not yet shot color films, it is not difficult, as long as it buys color film.

At this time, the telegram was ordered, and it arrived in more than a month, so as not to delay the progress of shooting.

The two had decided, and Hong Shen set off for Guangzhou.

As for the entanglement of the Japanese, Lin Zixuan will let people deliberately leak a script to let the Japanese feel at ease for the time being.

At this point, he breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't want to go home because there was a lot of trouble going on at home.

After her sister Lin Xiaoling came back, she entered the blind date procedure.

She is twenty years old this year, and the young lady of a wealthy family in Shanghai is either married or engaged at this age.

Like the third lady of the Song family, there are not many leftover women who have not married in their thirties.

The family did not urge Lin Xiaoling to get married, it is okay to get engaged first, before that, you can meet with the young talents in Shanghai and get to know each other.

This is the same as when Lin Zixuan and Feng Chengcheng met for the first time, everyone came over like this.

Lin Xiaoling also went to see her a few times, but after being nurtured abroad, her vision became higher, and it was difficult for these young masters on the beach to satisfy her, so they all vetoed.

According to Feng Chengcheng's words, this sister-in-law is ten times more picky than she was back then.

Thinking of this, Lin Zixuan couldn't help but shake his head, no matter in any era, marriage is a headache. (To be continued.) )
