The anti-fraud bureau needs a promotional video, and you're going to make a "Desperate Gam

Chapter 230: "The Battle at Lake Changjin" is set to premiere during the Lunar New Year holiday!! It's sparking heated discussions across the internet!! (Please subscribe!)

Filming for this drama took three months to complete.

It can be said that this is the film with the longest shooting time of all of Song Hao's movies.

In addition, like "Operation Red Sea", this film was almost entirely shot on location.

The conditions were also extremely harsh.

The wrap-up of filming at Changjin Lake brought a sigh of relief to Song Hao and the others.

At least we don't have to film in such cold weather anymore.

Song Hao and his entourage returned to the capital.

To express his gratitude, director Song Hao booked a banquet hall and invited all the extras and crew members who participated in the filming of Changjin Lake.

On that day, the hotel staff alone greeted three thousand guests.

This surprised the lobby manager.

He hadn't expected that Song Hao's film would have so many extras.

Because many soldiers were in a hurry to return to their units, they did not attend the wrap party.

Song Hao personally promised, "Don't worry, everyone. After I finish the wrap party, I will come to the military base as soon as possible and treat everyone to dumplings."

These days, the soldiers filming the movie have also forged a deep friendship with Song Hao and others.

They also believed that Song Hao would definitely reunite with them after he finished his work.

In the banquet hall.

Looking at Wu Jing and the others, Song Hao noticed that their faces were all frostbitten to varying degrees.

He felt very guilty.

Especially Wu Lei, this kid has the same fighting spirit he had back in the day.

This led Song Hao to decide to properly mentor this young actor.

At the wrap party, Song Hao raised his glass and said to everyone, "I know that everyone has worked very hard during this period. I also know that everyone has persevered for the past three months. Here, I would like to express my highest respect to everyone and thank you for your cooperation."

After finishing one glass, the other actors also raised their glasses in response, saying, "Director Song, you're too kind. It's our good fortune to be able to join the Changjin Lake crew."

"Yes, actually we haven't felt particularly tired these days. We even feel honored to be part of this team."

"To be honest, I'm really looking forward to the movie's release and seeing how the audience reacts."

"Absolutely needless to say, the film 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' is the biggest production I've ever seen, it's bound to be amazing."

The praise from everyone made Song Hao happy: "Don't have too high expectations. Let's just take it in stride. This movie is a tribute film. In any case, we have finished this movie, which can be considered as completing the task assigned to us by the organization. As for the quality of this movie, let the audience judge it."

"Okay, then let's look forward to a big increase in the box office for Changjin Lake."

"Yes! I hope to break the box office record in film history."

"Hahaha, isn't that just breaking Director Song's own 'Wolf Warrior'?"

Soon after, the wrap party ended.

Song Hao also held a press conference to promote the event.

It's now early December.

In terms of timeline, the post-production should take more than three months.

However, Song Hao provided post-production guidance while filming.

This also makes the production speed faster and faster.

There are less than two months left until the Chinese New Year.

Song Hao needs to seize the time and use every method to edit the film, striving to set a release date before the Chinese New Year.

His film "The Battle at Lake Changjin" must be released during the Lunar New Year holiday season this year.

At the press conference.

Many media outlets also came to interview.

After all, this was a tribute film that the organization specifically requested Song Hao to direct.

For the first time, Song Hao held a promotional press conference after filming wrapped up.

The purpose was also to create a publicity opportunity for Chosin Reservoir.

"Director Song, as the chief director of this tribute film, what are your thoughts on making this film about the Battle of Changjin Lake?"

"As everyone knows, the movie 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' is about a very important battle in our Korean War, which has great historical significance. At the same time, we can also clearly feel how difficult it was for the older generation back then." Song Hao explained, "During the filming process, our crew had many young actors and staff who may have been unfamiliar with this period of history. However, after experiencing this scene firsthand, their feelings for the country and their respect for their predecessors became even more profound."

Upon hearing this, everyone present applauded.

"Director Song, I'd like to ask if this movie will be released during the Lunar New Year holiday season?"

Song Hao nodded: "As everyone knows, this movie is a tribute film. Although war scenes inevitably involve sacrifice and bloodshed, and some people may feel that watching these during the Spring Festival is inappropriate, I believe that good films can resonate with audiences at any time, especially patriotic films like this."

"Therefore, I have also decided to release 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' during the Lunar New Year holiday season!"

Many people also became excited.

This means that "The Battle at Lake Changjin" will be released to audiences in less than two months.

Everyone is eagerly anticipating what Song Hao's blockbuster, which took three months to film, will be like.

At this point, a reporter asked curiously, "This movie is all male actors, which is quite different from Director Song's previous filming style. In the past, Director Song would designate a female actress to become a so-called 'Song Girl.' If this movie is all male actors, does that mean there will be no more 'Song Girls' in the future?"

Song Hao laughed: "Actually, there is no such thing as a Song Girl. It's just that there are some suitable roles in my movies, and after you watch them, you are filled with impressions and good feelings towards a certain role."

"Your company currently has many top-tier actresses, such as Ni Ni, Liu Shuangshi, Li Qinqin, and Liu Feifei, as well as many young and promising actresses, such as Zhao Jinmai. I would like to ask Director Song, if you were to make a movie next, which one would you choose as the female lead?"

After thinking for a moment, Song Hao replied, "Whoever is suitable will be chosen; there is no fixed person."

After asking so many questions, some people started gossiping.

"Director Song, have you remained single for the past four years, or have you publicly stated that you are single but are actually no longer single?"

"That's a great question. I also wish I had a girlfriend, but I haven't found one. No girl has been interested in me," Song Hao said with a smile.

After he said that, many of the female reporters present laughed.

They knew, of course, that Song Hao was joking.

If Song Hao were willing, not only would he be able to pick any actress in the entertainment industry, but even the actresses under his company would probably be very willing to be his girlfriend.

Of course, officially announcing your single status always has one advantage.

That means you won't ruin your public image.

As long as you abide by the law and don't go to prostitutes, there shouldn't be too many problems.

This press conference lasted for more than half an hour.

I asked almost every media reporter the same question.

That night.

Various media outlets also focused on promoting and interviewing about "The Battle at Lake Changjin".

People's Daily and other official media outlets also gave "The Battle at Lake Changjin" a shout-out.

After all, this commemorative film took a lot of effort to make. Its promotion must be effective.

Song Hao, on the other hand, continued to work on the post-production of "The Battle at Lake Changjin".

During this time, Director Qian called to inquire about the progress.

"Xiao Song, how's the production of 'Changjin Lake' going?" Director Qian asked.

Song Hao replied, "Post-production is already halfway complete."

"So soon?" Director Qian asked in surprise. "Will it be able to be released during the Lunar New Year holiday season?"

Song Hao replied, "As long as the State Administration of Radio and Television doesn't block it, there shouldn't be any problems with the review process."

"Don't worry about him, just give me the finished film for review," Director Qian instructed.

"clear."

time flies.

One month later.

The film "The Battle at Lake Changjin" has been officially completed.

He immediately took the CD and went to find Director Qian.

Director Qian immediately convened a meeting of the department leaders to watch the movie together.

For three hours straight, the leaders did not look down, did not check their phones, and did not whisper to each other.

They were all staring intently at the screen.

Some of the older generation of leaders even had tears in their eyes and became slightly agitated.

It's clear that they've developed an emotional connection.

After the movie ends.

Director Qian looked at the senior leader at the front.

He was the highest-ranking person in the entire media room.

"Minister Liu, what do you think?" Director Qian asked.

Minister Liu turned to look at Song Hao and gave him a thumbs up, saying, "Comrade Song, your film is really excellent. While watching it, I even thought of many things. My father also participated in the Battle of Chosin Reservoir. He often told me these stories back then. I thought how wonderful it would be if the Battle of Chosin Reservoir could be shown on the big screen and known to audiences across the country."

"Comrade Xiao Song, you did it! You almost perfectly recreated the Battle of Chosin Reservoir. The soldiers' never-give-up spirit and military soul have deeply inspired us."

"You did a great job. You must have had a tough time filming these past few months."

Song Hao shook his head: "It's not hard work. I feel very honored to be able to make a film as a tribute to the country."

Minister Liu stood up, looking very pleased.

Finally, looking at Director Qian, he said, "Have the publicity department fully cooperate with 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' to promote this film. We cannot let such a high-quality film go unnoticed; we must make sure that audiences across the country know about it."

"Yes, Minister!"

After leaving the media room, Director Qian praised Song Hao, saying, "I didn't expect this movie to be of such high quality. It's no worse than 'Wolf Warrior'! And from my personal perspective, it's even much better than 'Wolf Warrior' in terms of filming the grand scale of war scenes."

He looked at Song Hao and said, "Next, you will focus all your efforts on promoting this movie. Our publicity department will hand over the publicity costs to you later. Don't worry, we will definitely not let you lose money."

"Understood, Director Chen, I will definitely cooperate fully."

The approval of "The Battle at Lake Changjin" was naturally within Song Hao's expectations.

He also posted a message on Weibo.

[The film "The Battle at Lake Changjin" has been officially scheduled for release during the Lunar New Year holiday. A film that has deeply moved countless people, a battle that has brought tears to many eyes, a moment that has touched the hearts of countless Chinese people—please look forward to it.]

As soon as this news came out.

This immediately caused a sensation among netizens.

"My goodness, Director Song's 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' is really coming."

"Hahaha, I knew that Director Song's 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' would be released during the Lunar New Year holiday."

"I thought it would be released after the Lunar New Year. After all, such a big-budget tribute film must be strictly controlled. I didn't expect that it would take three months to film and only one and a half months for post-production. That's really going all out."

"Who is Director Song? Director Song is known for his hard work. Have you forgotten that his 'Operation Red Sea' was only filmed for two months?"

"If a masterpiece like this can be made in just two months of filming, then wouldn't 'The Battle at Lake Changjin', which took three months to film, be taking off?!"

"I'm getting more and more excited for Director Song's 'The Battle at Lake Changjin'."

"This seems to be Director Song's first film as president of the China Film Association. I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of visual feast he can bring us."

Perhaps due to the promotion of patriotic films, there aren't many big-budget productions scheduled for release during the Lunar New Year season this year.

It's as if everyone is making way for this film, "The Battle at Lake Changjin".

This made many people in the entertainment industry happy for Song Hao.

Wang Chuanjun: [Director Song, this time your "The Battle at Lake Changjin" is guaranteed to be a box office hit; no one will be competing with you.]

Peng Yuyan: [Director Song, I've already posted a Weibo message promoting "The Battle at Lake Changjin" for you. Although I don't have many followers, it should be worth tens of thousands of yuan in box office revenue.]

Jin Chen: [Hahaha, Yu Yan, is your fan base only worth tens of thousands at the box office? Director Song, keep it up! I've already booked three theaters for my fans; this time I'm paying for it myself. You have to live up to expectations!]

In response to his friends' encouragement, Song Hao said, "Thank you everyone. I don't really care about the box office numbers. I just feel that such a good movie shouldn't be ignored. It would be such a pity if it were buried."

It was this one sentence that prompted more and more artists and celebrities to start giving their support to "The Battle at Lake Changjin".

Even retired actor Chen Daoming posted an article hoping everyone would support Song Hao's "The Battle at Lake Changjin".

Under the influence of such publicity, more and more people know that Song Hao made a film about aiding North Korea.

Most people are familiar with the major battles during the War of Resistance against Japan.

However, many young people are not very familiar with the situation during the Korean War.

Therefore, during this period, more and more bloggers spontaneously popularized history.

I tried to recount all the historically significant events, such as the Battle of Chosin Reservoir and the Battle of Shangganling.

For a while.

A wave of patriotic sentiment about history swept across the internet.

With the help of popular science, many people gradually understood the details of what happened back then.

"My goodness, when I was in school, I only knew some dates, but I didn't know so many other things."

"Yes, when I was studying history, when we got to the Korean War, there was only one small section, and we didn't study it in detail."

"No, I must watch this movie during the Chinese New Year. I need to enrich my knowledge and experience. Otherwise, I feel I'll be letting down those martyrs and predecessors."

"Me too!!"

Let's start a group activity to watch "The Battle at Lake Changjin" during the Chinese New Year!

"it is good!"

And so, the online community's spontaneous campaign to watch "The Battle at Lake Changjin" during the Chinese New Year officially began.

It quickly rose to the top of the trending topics list!
