Passing by the Huayi Film City, apart from the huge and magnificent Buddha of "Tongtian Buddha," the most eye-catching thing is a large row of huge walls made of containers. Inside the wall, a movie called "Eight Hundred" is about to come to an end. A trailer has just been released recently. Netizens already know that this movie is worth going to the cinema with just a trailer.
is an adaptation of real events, another masterpiece of Guan Hu,
"Yao Bai" is a ten-year war work conceived by director Guan Hu in "Old Cannon". It is the first full digital IMAX film in Asia. 3, 4 have done so.
On October 26, 1937, more than 400 Chinese people decided to sacrifice their lives in this country. On July 5, 2019, Guan Hu took his carefully selected actors to put their stories on the big screen. The
movie is based on the last battle of the Songhu Battle in 1937. The fierce battle between China and Japan has lasted for three full months. In order to cover the retreat of the main force, the Chinese army needs to leave a unit to hold on to Shanghai and delay the advancement of the Japanese army. For this army, more troops are sacrifices, and fewer troops are sacrifices. Therefore, the original plan was to adjust the strength of a regiment to a reinforced battalion of more than 400 people.
In order to gain momentum, the commander Xie Jinyuan declared a strength of 800 people. As a result, "Eight Hundred Heroes" became the code name of this lone army, which was carved in the long river of history. This is also the source of the name of the movie "Eight Hundred". Guan Hu once explained on Weibo that "Hundred" was used instead of "Hundred": Bai, the establishment of the ancient army, ten people, one hundred people, the number "hundred" The reason for capitalization is mainly because of the "person" next to it. The
all-star lineup, Huang Xiaoming may be able to take this to turn
. The movie is about to be released in one month. "Eight Hundred" has also started the publicity mode. Not long ago, a series of movie character posters were issued, and some actors were first exposed in the play. Because every soldier in this battle is the protagonist, and every character has flesh and blood, the movie also uses the all-star mode, which is divided into two parts:
North Shore Theater actors: Ou Hao, Du Chun, Huang Zhizhong, Zhang Junyi , Jiang Wu, Zhang Yi, Wang Qianyuan, Zhang Youhao, Wei Chen, Li Chen, Yu Ailei, Yu Haoming, Zheng Kai.
South bank concession area actors: Liang Jing, Tang Yixin, Li Jiuxiao, Xin Baiqing, Hou Yong, Liu Xiaoqing, Ruan Jingtian, Yao Chen, Huang Xiaoming, Ma Jingwu.
Regardless of the actor’s position, the actor must reach the highest level. All actors enter military training in advance, accept script reading, stay in a closed and depressive warehouse for 6 to 8 months, and follow the actors and extras. Before the filming started, the military training was carried out for seven months. The nearly 400 extras were students from Henan Wushu School specially selected by Guan Hu, plus 50 students who graduated from Chinese Opera and Beiying.
once starred in "Operation Red Sea" Zhang Yi once revealed in an interview: "Close blasting, high-rise jumps, cold winter into the water, those soldiers who experienced the difficulties in the past, we must experience it by ourselves."
in terms of capital, "eight" "Bai" also made a lot of effort, with an investment of 500 million, but because it was invested by Huayi Brothers, in the face of Cui Yongyuan's previous exposure of the Yin and Yang contract, Huayi Brothers was greatly injured by the movie "Mobile Phone 2".
Some viewers also said that they chose not to watch it because of Huayi's production, and some people said that Huang Xiaoming and Zheng Kai would not watch it, but I believe that this movie will be their turnaround.
