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

Chapter 252, "The Battle at Lake Changjin 2," caused a national sensation! The real events were even more tragic!
"It really exceeded my expectations. As an animation major, I know how much effort it takes to make an animated film like this. Chinese animation is slowly improving, and the effect is indeed very good. It's worth the ticket price. Xiaodao Club is so exciting!!! Please focus on making a sequel! And please release some merchandise too, haha!!"

"This is the first time I've ever been particularly proud to give this animated film 4 stars without using the standards of a 'domestic film.' The Monkey King's transformation is absolutely awesome! I want to marry him! The technology and visuals are top-notch, the humor is natural and harmonious, the ending theme is both cute and heartwarming, and the Demon King is truly wickedly beautiful."

"It's even better than I expected! The visuals are beautiful, the fight scenes are smooth, the plot is not complicated, and it has both laughter and tears. The Great Sage is handsome from every angle. His character of not letting little kids know even when he's in pain, and his indomitable and loyal personality are so well portrayed. I was immediately fired up when the entrance music started!"

"What kind of movie do you think deserves four or five stars if you only give it one or two stars?! A rewritten script with a clichéd story? Flashy characters and scenes and you call it plagiarism? It's not without flaws, but to say that this kind of film has no breakthroughs makes me lament that the sincerity of Chinese animation has been taken for granted! It's enough that some famous film critics give it one or two stars just to show off their superiority! Reading a bunch of subjective short reviews is infuriating!"

Perhaps because everyone is praising "Monkey King: Hero Is Back", some film critics are hesitant to criticize the animation.

Instead, it received a series of positive reviews.

As a die-hard fan of Song Hao, [Free Bird] has been analyzing Song Hao's films for over 5 years.

Over the course of five years, he gradually transformed from a small-time film critic blogger into a big name in the film criticism world.

When "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" was released, he immediately watched the entire movie without stopping.

He then posted an article expressing his feelings about the movie.

Because I watched the first ED trailer and was moved to tears by Jiang Liuer, I grabbed a preview ticket and went to the cinema to cry. That was my original intention, but I was pleasantly surprised and had a lot of gains. If I had to give it a score, I would give it the highest score that is always removed.

The visuals and color scheme are perfect. It's not the light and refreshing style of Miyazaki Hayao's films, but rather the unique ink-wash style of Chinese animation. In the first ten minutes, the Monkey King is so cool that I cried. The 3D effects are amazing, making it hard to believe that it's a Chinese 3D film. The Monkey King's red ribbon is always waving in front of my eyes, making me want to grab it.

The storyboard of Chang'an City is breathtakingly beautiful; even the light emanating from the small house has a unique charm. After that, whether it was the jungle chase scene or the fight scene at Five Elements Mountain, I was completely awestruck by the creators' storyboards. Director Tian Xiaopeng, you owe me a pair of knee pads.

The character development is perfect. Jiang Liuer is adorable, the Great Sage's horse-faced demeanor is both aloof and adorable, Jiang Liuer's master exudes a righteous charm, and even the younger sister, who can't speak, is adorable.

The voice acting is perfect. Jiang Liuer's voice acting is incredibly lifelike. He's just a talkative kid. Are you really the Monkey King? It's so cute every time I hear it.

The soundtrack is perfect; every piece of music fits seamlessly. In particular, there's a fight scene where the music's rhythm isn't "qiang qiang qiang qiang qiang qiang qiang," but rather "qiang qiang qiang qiang qiang qiang." I was completely blown away.

In short, this is absolutely a masterpiece among animated films. Compared to other domestic films on the market, its visuals, music, and 3D effects are far superior to those films from years ago. Both are major IPs (everyone knows Journey to the West), so some directors who think of themselves as product managers should probably stick to making music videos.

This post about my technical experience quickly attracted a lot of likes and comments.

Online discussions about the movie "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" continue.

The box office figures for the first day of "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" were released this morning.

Although it didn't reach the level of horror of "Avatar", it still cost as much as 10 billion.

Furthermore, the film had a 50% screening rate and a 71% occupancy rate on the day of its release, all of which are quite impressive.

However, the film's main drawback is that it is an animated film, and therefore it is not particularly popular among older audiences.

This is inevitable, because some people like animated movies while others don't.

Nevertheless, "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" still holds a significant competitive advantage over other films released at the same time.

One netizen commented: "Although it's an animated film, it's suitable for all ages and is very exciting. I highly recommend everyone to watch it; it's definitely worth it."

"The animated 3D movie is a completely different and stunning experience, and the plot is really novel, with both laughter and tears. As expected of Director Su's work, it always brings new surprises. I feel that watching it once is not enough. I will take my girlfriend to see it another day so that she can also enjoy the charm of animated movies."

"This movie is definitely worth watching. It's a milestone in Chinese animation. If you don't see it, you'll really regret it. Watching it in theaters and watching it on TV are two completely different things."

Well-meaning netizens have propelled the film "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" to its peak of popularity, making many people hesitant about whether to make plans to watch it.

Meanwhile, users on Douban gave the animated film an exceptionally high score of 9.5.

The online buzz surrounding "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" has reached a fever pitch.

And the other side.

The filming of "The Water Gate Bridge of Changjin Lake" by Song Hao and others has also reached the post-production stage.

Tonight's mission involves Wu Jing and other soldiers from the flanking company heading to Shuimen Bridge to complete a bombing mission.

They must pay any price to blow up this bridge.

Because if the enemy soldiers were to pass through smoothly, it could have a very fatal impact on the troops behind them.

The first half of this scene consists of Mei Sheng, played by Zhu Yawen, driving a large truck into the enemy camp.

Zhu Yawen looked at the photo, half of which was burned; it was his daughter's only memento.

His eyes were completely swollen at this moment.

He lit a cigarette.

Despite the pain and embarrassment, his expression remained resolute.

He then set the cloth on fire at the back of the truck.

Then start the car.

They drove straight up the hillside, charging towards the enemy camp.

To achieve the most realistic effect, Song Hao even had a real truck roll down a hillside.

We reject any special effects.

Everyone watched the truck drive down the hillside, their hearts pounding with fear.

Because if the truck's direction of travel changes, it is very likely that the truck will have to be scrapped.

Prior to this, Song Hao had already scrapped two cars.

Such costly expenditures are unacceptable.

But Song Hao remained steadfast, insisting that every shot needed to be completed meticulously.

Use props to recreate scenes where special effects are unnecessary.

With dozens of cameras pointed at them, everyone on the film crew watched the large truck on the hillside with bated breath.

Wu Jing, on the other hand, was in the same direction and slid down the hillside.

The camera happened to capture the scene of the truck and Wu Jing sliding down together.

After filming this part.

Song Hao also filmed additional footage of other soldiers charging forward.

In order to attract the enemy's attention, they volunteered to become a suicide squad and draw enemy fire.

One by one, these soldiers fell on the snow, but as long as they had a sliver of will, they continued to move forward.

When filming close-up shots of Zhu Yawen.

He was pierced by numerous bullets, and at that moment, he also displayed a strange kind of pain.

But his hands remained firmly gripping the steering wheel.

Such a performance deeply moved the crew members present.

They all praised Zhu Yawen's acting skills.

But after filming, Zhu Yawen said to everyone, "Actually, I discussed this scene with Director Song for a long time before filming, so I am grateful to Director Song for his help with this scene."

Song Hao shook his head and said, "Your acting skills are the real deal. I only made some insignificant suggestions."

At last.

Wu Jing arrived on the bridge with ammunition.

Before dying.

He lit the explosive charge with a gun.

"We are about to face the world's best-equipped army."

"The battle will be very tough, but we must strive for victory."

At the moment Wu Jing sacrificed himself, he finally completed his mission.

Everybody knows.

Battle requires sacrifice.

They must fight this war for the sake of peaceful lives for future generations.

And then the final scene was filmed.

Wu Lei said, "The Seventh Infiltration Company should have 157 men, but only one man is present."

His back view, captured from behind, clearly showed how lonely he was.

But they still stood firm.

"Reporting, Wu Wanli, Seventh Infiltration Company, reporting for duty."

This is the end.

The movie is finally finished.

It took a total of three months.

It's already early August.

There are less than two months until National Day.

This is a huge test for Song Hao and his team.

Because they had to finish editing the film before National Day and also carry out large-scale promotion.

As a tribute film, "The Battle at Lake Changjin" cannot afford any mistakes.

Every detail must be rigorously reviewed.

soon.

News of the completion of filming for Song Hao's "The Water Gate Bridge of Changjin Lake" has also spread online.

Netizens are really looking forward to it.

They all posted comments.

"Finally, Director Song's 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' is here. I can't wait to see his movie."

"Let me put it this way: this movie will absolutely overturn everyone's perception of patriotic films."

"Is it going to be even more explosive than the first one? I don't think so."

"I also think it's unlikely, the first one is too classic."

"Haha, let's wait and see."

Song Hao has not been active online regarding this matter.

At this moment, he is working day and night to urge the post-production of the film.

As a sequel to the tribute series, this film must demonstrate the true strength of Chinese mainstream cinema to audiences worldwide.

Meanwhile, the box office of "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" continues to rise.

Everyone is now praising this film, which is full of the charm of Chinese animation.

Of course, the film's final box office still did not surpass that of Nezha.

After all, Nezha was a sensational movie that broke out of its niche back then.

After being shown for more than a month, the movie is nearing its end.

The film's box office revenue also reached around 48 billion.

Just as everyone's interest in "Monkey King: Hero Is Back" was waning.

Song Hao released a lot of promotional videos for the movie "The Battle at Lake Changjin" in one go.

The film "The Battle at Lake Changjin" has been officially announced, and a teaser poster has been released.

[As a sequel to the film "The Battle at Lake Changjin," it retains the original cast and crew.]

[Song Hao will continue to serve as producer and executive producer for "The Battle at Lake Changjin," and will also continue to serve as executive producer and director.]

[Starring Wu Jing and Wu Lei, with Zhu Yawen, Li Chen, Duan Yihong, Zhang Hanyu, and others in supporting roles.]

The documentary "The Water Gate Bridge of Changjin Lake" will present the complete story of the Seventh Company, showing audiences why they were called the Steel Seventh Company. The story of the Steel Seventh Company will continue.

Since the first film of "The Battle at Lake Changjin" was released, it has resonated with the entire nation, creating a nationwide "Changjin Lake effect" that has frequently crossed over into other social circles.

While moved, viewers were also deeply concerned about the future of the soldiers of the Seventh Company.

Song Hao also gave an interview, saying, "The story of the Seventh Company is not over yet. The fate of Wu Qianli, Wu Wanli, and other soldiers from last year will continue. The battles ahead will be even more intense and the tasks even more arduous."

"The Battle of Chosin Reservoir will present everything, allowing the audience to see what a group of brave Steel Sevens soldiers are, and what the great spirit of aiding Korea is."

And this first poster also reveals the key battle.

One of these films, "The Battle of Chosin Reservoir," is set against the backdrop of the Battle of Chosin Reservoir during the Second Phase Offensive of the Korean War.

The story tells of how, after the battles of Xinxingli and Hagaru-ri ended, the soldiers of the 7th Company received another difficult individual mission.

at this time.

A content creator on the history section posted a video.

How intense was the actual fighting at Watergate Bridge?

In the video, he said, "Although I don't know the movie 'The Battle of Chosin Reservoir,' I believe the scene must have been very intense. In fact, in the real history of the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, it was definitely more intense than what was shown in the movie trailer. The enemy was even praying that they could leave alive."

"I dare not have any other extravagant hopes."

"Our soldiers blew up the bridge again and again, but the enemy's industrial capacity was too strong, and they repaired the bridge in a short time."

"I believe the bridge-bombing scene depicted in the movie 'The Battle at Lake Changjin' must have been very intense, but in reality, the actual soldiers carried out the bridge-bombing operation three times, resulting in countless deaths and injuries."

"The purpose was to delay the enemy's retreat, giving our comrades more time to prepare for sniping."

When this video is played.

This has made netizens even more curious.

They all wanted to know how the battles in the movie actually went.

Meanwhile, Director Zhao of the Ministry of War couldn't wait to call Song Hao to inquire about the film's progress.

Song Hao then said, "Director Zhao, I'll show you the finished film now."

"it is good!"

After watching the entire film, Director Zhao looked at Song Hao excitedly and said, "You are a genius! You have perfectly captured the Changjin Lake Water Gate Bridge Operation that I envisioned."

"I just hope not to embarrass my seniors from back then, so I will do everything I can to make it a good film."

Director Zhao stood up and nodded emphatically, saying, "Yes, you're right. We can't let our predecessors down. Our country is strong now!"

"Now we're just waiting for this movie to be released so that people all over the country can see the heroic soldiers from back then!!"

I recommend a book by a friend, "Immortality Begins with a Lifetime as a Sword Immortal".
