Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 984 Spielberg's vision
Spielberg obviously didn't think about Jinling thirteen hairpins when he was busy with other things.
In addition to asking for as real as possible, he also talked to Qiao Feng about the general shooting ideas.
Because the Jinling Thirteen Hairpins are about events that occurred during the Jinling Massacre, the background must first be photographed and introduced clearly.
When Qiao Feng heard it, he felt that this idea was better, much better than that of Lao Mouzi.
Lao Mouzi’s Jinling Thirteen Hairpins begins with a monologue, directly that Jinling has been bombed for more than 20 days. In addition to this brief introduction to the background, whether it is about the attack of the little devil or the defense of the national army No introduction.
It is straight to the point that the city is broken, the devil comes in and kills people, and then the countrymen are hunted down.
This kind of opening is fine, but this kind of opening is only suitable for people who understand that period of history.
For foreigners who don't understand this period of history or know very little, they are completely confused, and the background is not clear. How can they attract them to read it?
As a foreigner, Spielberg, from his own point of view, knew how to make foreigners like himself interested in this story of massacres and massacres that took place in a foreign country.
Listening to Spielberg's filming ideas, Qiao Feng has a sense of sight of saving Private Ryan in the original time and space.
Saving Private Ryan begins with an introduction to the background, the Normandy landing battle.
A landing battle that lasted nearly half an hour, introduced the background and presented the cruelty of the war to the audience.
It was against this cruel background that the protagonist received a terrible task.
Among the four sons of the Ryan family who participated in the battle on the front line, except for the youngest son of the 101st Airborne Division's second-class soldier James Ryan, who is still missing, the other three sons have been killed in battle in various places within two weeks.
U.S. Army Chief of Staff General Marshall learned of the incident and out of humanitarian considerations, the protagonist led an 8-person team to find out the life and death of the second-class James Ryan in the crowded, bullets and rain, and return him safely rear.
After half an hour of background presentation, the whole story will be developed around the theme of Saving Private Ryan.
I don't know if it is God's will in the dark, Spielberg's idea of shooting Jinling Thirteen Hairpins is the same way.
Starting from the general background introduction, 200,000 Japanese troops attacked Jinling in three routes, and most of them were remnants of the national army who had retreated from the Songhu battlefield and rehabilitated, with less than 150,000 people trying to defend.
Of course, there will be no less cruel scenes of war. It's just that the general background introduction will be from face to point.
Due to technical and financial reasons, it is definitely impossible to take the entire scene of the Jinling Flames fighting against the sky.
Therefore, showing the cruelty of the war, the fierce Japanese offensive, and the heavy casualties of the national army can only be shot by point by point, small-scale war scenes, and let people know the whole story.
Then the defense of the national army in the war will not blindly degrade them, nor will it blindly uphold them.
What is the way it is.
The national army suffered heavy casualties in the war, and also made tenacious resistance. These should be shots.
The chaos of the national army's decision-makers in the formulation of strategies and tactics should also be shot.
There is also an excuse for not executing the order when retreating, not retreating in the direction and time given by the order, giving up the responsibility and mission as a soldier in order to escape, and rushing to Shimonoseki where the enemy has not yet arrived.
The whole retreat was disorderly and chaotic. Not only did the ministries scramble for the first time and refused to yield to each other, many people were trampled to death due to overwhelming, and tens of thousands of soldiers were unable to retreat and were stranded in the city and finally slaughtered. .
These will be presented in real, without whitewashing or discrediting.
We must let everyone know what the real defense of Jinling was like, and why the tens of thousands of national soldiers in the Jinling Massacre were finally slaughtered because of what would stay in the city.
The entire Jinling Defence Battle of the Chinese Army was chaotic as a whole, and the will to resist was not firm. But there were also heroes and shining points.
After all, in the entire defense of Jinling, eight people were killed by the national army only as a major general, and the total number of colonel lieutenants was 39.
It is precisely because of this that Spielberg said that in the Jinling Thirteen Hairpins script given by Qiao Feng at the beginning, the soldiers of the National Army’s teaching team are also Tong Da. The soldiers who played the role of helping female students return to the church had their settings constant.
What has changed is that after the Jinling City was broken, when the Manchurian Army was escaping and retreating from the rear, they were one of the few teams that marched in the direction of the Japanese army and blocked it.
They are the only warm colors in the national army in the cold tones of Jinling City from the face to the point.
Then they met Yumo and the others and helped them escape to the church and what happened afterwards.
Of course, although these soldiers are brave, they certainly won't hit ten or dozens of them in Lao Mouzi movies.
That's too exaggerated and too fake.
If the national army is so powerful, how can the little devil break into Jinling City? How can there be a massacre.
Therefore, in this national army, the soldiers of these teaching teams can be brave and can be more powerful than the little devil, but they are also limited. At least they are normal, and one fights two or three.
This is Spielberg's general idea, and the specifics will be adjusted after the script is written.
Another point is about the priest's setting. Spielberg thinks it is too nonsense to let a corpse collector be a priest.
In particular, this man still braved the devil's fire and risked his life to go to the church to collect the body of the priest in the bloody and tragic war.
How do you think about such a setting?
The priest is the real priest, the priest is in the church, and the female students are also in the church.
Because the United States is in a neutral position, this American church has naturally become a refuge. Yumo, rescued by the soldiers of the teaching team, ran away like headless flies, ran outside the church, and then climbed up. The wall outside the church sought shelter.
The priest made a difficult decision to accept them based on a humanitarian stand and his own beliefs.
"Steven, your ideas are very good. I think the new script should be written in this way." After listening to all Spielberg's ideas and considerations, Qiao Feng said very happily.
Spielberg nodded. He was very appreciative of Qiao Feng's acceptance of his ideas throughout the article. He felt respected and recognized.
At the same time, he also felt that he and Qiao Feng were in good tune, and the traces in his heart that had been in his heart because Qiao Feng used Jurassic Park to force him to shoot this Jinling 13 hairpin also disappeared.
"I will also be involved in the writing of the script." Spielberg, who feels like a confidant will die for his confidant, feels that it is necessary to control it from the stage of the script to live up to Qiao Feng's trust in him.
"I can't ask for it," Qiao Feng said with a laugh.
