561 The Power of Cinema

The faces of those Chinese soldiers on the screen are indeed full of longing for the future. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before the Battle of Champagne Sallon, it can be said that the predominantly Chinese Foreign Legion led by Qin Zhiyuan had been smooth sailing until the afternoon when the Battle of Champagne Salon broke out, and everything was different.

In fact, the current dubbing is all about the sound of cars and marching footsteps, and although some Chinese soldiers are talking on the screen, no one knows what they are talking about.

At this time, the narration is still the same, without ups and downs, as if the person who is dubbing has no feelings, and it is this voice that belongs entirely to the bystanders to state the places that need to be explained in this war, which sounds particularly shocking.

It's really shocking, in fact, the previous movies are all silent movies, hesitating the limitations of silent movies, many things can't be expressed, coupled with the unprofessionalism of the film director, the narrative of many movies can't even be guaranteed, from the perspective of the 21st century, it is indeed shoddy.

And this attempt of Lanfang Royal Pictures is simply a subversion of the movie, not only the unprecedented appearance of a sound movie, achieving the perfect combination of sound and picture, but also greatly improving the narrative and artistry, especially the film score, which has become a classic of the whole film.

You know, in the past, filmmakers usually set up a live orchestra on the stage to improvise as the plot of the movie progressed in order to make the movie look better.

Yes, it is improvisation, there is no score, there is no rhythm, and those musicians can express their wild ideas in the form of music no matter what wild ideas they have in their heads, and these improvised music is often not in the same way as the donkey head of the plot being played on the screen.

The film "Champagne Chalon" has a soundtrack, and the soundtrack of this film is a carefully composed version performed by the Lanfang National Orchestra, which is completely different from the improvisations of those grass stage troupes.

Just as military vehicles and teams of soldiers passed by the screen, the first soundtrack sounded, which was "Vladivostok March".

To tell the truth, the song "Vladivostok March" is not suitable for use as a military song of the navy, but it is more suitable for use as a military song for the army, especially when there are sharp weapons of war such as tanks and large-caliber artillery flashing on the screen, and it is particularly majestic with "Vladivostok March".

Less than ten minutes after the movie started, the audience was actually stupid, even including those envoys in Lanfang who had already watched the movie, they didn't expect that the movie could be so enthusiastic, and the elements in the movie could be so colorful.

And for those Lanfang people who watch the movie, this is a spiritual baptism, a spiritual sublimation, and a huge improvement in national cohesion, many people are watching the movie for the first time, the first time to see what the Foreign Legion is like, and the first time to see the war-torn European continent from the screen.

To be honest, judging from the lens on the screen, the European continent is really inferior to Lan Fang.

So, unconsciously, the pride from the heart is so spontaneous.

The pace on the screen is still very fast, and after careful editing by the director team, many of the shots shot at that time were used in the film, which truly recreates the whole process of the Battle of Champagne Chalons.

In the first 30 minutes, the film has been stating the pre-war preparations, and many Chinese soldiers have appeared on the screen, and the photographer seems to want to record more people, so that more people can leave image materials, even if it is just a fleeting shot, maybe it is the eternal memory they left to the world.

From the 31st minute, with the explosion of shells on the screen, the war finally began, at this time there were a large number of shaking shots, the photographer was obviously also running, constantly looking for camera positions, trying to shoot more and more valuable shots, and even in an explosion shot, the screen suddenly darkened, although the narrator at this time was still emotionless, but it was particularly worrying: "...... In the Battle of Champagne-Charlons, a total of 12 photojournalists and videographers were active in the Champagne Chalons area, and during the entire battle, a total of 9 journalists were killed, and the shot just now is the moment when a photographer was hit by a shell, our film is protected by a steel shell, but the photographer is only flesh and blood......"

With such a narrative, tears welled up in many people's eyes at once.

As the battle progressed, more details of the "Battle of Champagne Châlons" were revealed.

In stark contrast to the British and Senegalese soldiers, many of whom collapsed on the screen, crying unscrupulously in front of the camera, or who were still in good clothes, insisted that they were injured and asked to return to the rear for treatment.

This is in stark contrast to the Chinese soldiers who simply bandaged and then continued back to the battlefield.

Especially when the scene of the British commander Hamilton Gordon finding Ankang and asking for an immediate retreat appeared on the screen, the auditorium suddenly resounded with earth-shattering angry scolding, which made the British ambassador to Lanfang Owen Jonah, who came to watch the movie, turn pale.

"I protest, I seriously protest, that this kind of film cannot be released publicly...... It has to be revised, such a lens that is not good for the British Empire has to be removed, otherwise it will definitely affect our relations. Owen Jonah immediately found Qin Zhiyuan to express his position.

"It's just a movie, it's too much of a fuss, and there was even a scene of General Dennis Dushane fooling around on the eve of the war, so I didn't say anything!" Before Qin Zhiyuan could speak, Bastian took over first.

The day before the Battle of Champagne-Chalon, the British commander Hamilton Gordon discovered the Germans' plan of attack and reported it to Denis Duscheon, but Denis Duschein ignored it and even returned to Paris that evening to have a tryst with his mistress, which seemed even more humiliating if it was a shame.

"You can be shameless, but we still want it!" Owen Jonah is out of his mouth.

"Do you want to fight? Believe it or not, I beat you up and went back to your mother crying? Bastian lost his temper and immediately got up and began to roll up his sleeves.

Bastian is actually not very high in combat effectiveness, but Bastian is a soldier after all, although he has been a governor for more than half a year, he still has a little muscle on his body, and he looks stronger than the well-mannered Owen Jonah.

"Oh my God, can you be quiet, I want to see a perfect movie, don't you know how bad it is for you to do this?" Glinton Augustine played 80 boards each.

Well, there is nothing about Americans in this movie.

"Boy, don't leave when it's over, I'll be waiting for you at the door." Bastian prepares to swallow Owen Jonah's soft persimmon.

France and the United Kingdom, in terms of influence in the world, are still the largest and second largest in the world.

Such two countries, naturally, no one is convinced by the other, and if there is an opportunity, whether it is the French or the British, they do not mind pulling each other's hind legs from behind.

"Your Majesty, if you don't give us an explanation for this matter, I think it will definitely affect the relationship between our two countries." Owen Jonah's face was still pale, and although he sat back down, the expression on his face did not ease in the slightest.

In fact, when such a scene appeared on the screen, in the hearts of Lan Fang's people who watched the movie, the disdain for the French and the British has reached the extreme, as long as one person scolds, it will immediately cause a wave of sound that shakes the auditorium, in these earth-shattering scolding, the image of superiority that the Western powers have spent hundreds of years to establish in the East has been wiped out, for the Easterners, Westerners are no longer so noble as they used to be, they are no longer fearless, they will also fear, they will retreat, and they are also living people.

This is Qin Zhiyuan's purpose.

The plot continues to advance, and Xiang Ankang, whose eyes are bloodshot on the screen, gritted his teeth and put the last **** on the battlefield, and at the same time ordered the staff to send a telegram to Lance that represented the imminent annihilation of the whole army, and then pulled out his pistol, surrounded by the staff of the command headquarters, ready to go up as the last force at any time.

At this moment, two people suddenly appeared on the screen, two young men wearing military uniforms and wearing war correspondent insignia.

On the screen, a reporter seemed to say something, so the other person walked to the table and found half of the white paper from the brazier that was about to burn to ashes.

"My name is Tang Chungui, his name is Xie Baozhang, I am 20 years old, he is 21 years old, we are reporters, we are soldiers, and now there are only two of us left in the command headquarters, I think, we have completed all the work of the identity of reporters, and now it is time for us to perform our military duties!!"

At the end of the note, three exclamation marks were used to express strong feelings, and when the two young people in front of the camera saluted side by side in front of the camera, there were only low sobs in the auditorium, and even Owen Jonah, who was still making a lot of noise just now, unconsciously stopped his waist.

Respectable indeed.

The narrator's voice interjects: "Tang Chungui and Xie Baozhang died in the battle that day, Tang Chungui was hit by a stray bullet in the battle and died heroically, Xie Baozhang pulled the grenade in his hand at the last moment of his life, and died with the German soldiers who rushed to the position...... The film, which was later acquired by the Germans, returned to the Foreign Legion after the Second Battle of Reims. ”

This simply added fuel to the fire, and the audience immediately turned to the Germans for their anger.

So Ribbentrop's face was unusually ugly.

Fortunately, Qin Zhiyuan and William III had a good relationship after all, and they did not embarrass Ribbentrop for too long.

At the end of the film, a German girl appeared on the screen and said in standard Chinese: "I am German, but at the same time I am also from Lanfang, I don't hate Germans, I don't hate French, I don't hate British, I don't hate Chinese, I hate war, it is because of war that we have lost everything, but I want to say that although we Lanfang people love peace, we are never afraid of war, if some things can only end in war, then let war come!" ”

The girl was Girardin.
