The movie market is busy again.

The Mid-Autumn Festival period, which has already begun, is just an appetizer. A few low-cost films have average box office, but they can be regarded as heating up the scene.

You must know that the Mid-Autumn Festival is followed by the Golden National Day, the last highlight of this year.

Director Ning Hao has made another big move, partnering with Ge You to release "Breaking Good Guys", Jackie Chan and Wei Xiang's "Panda Project".

Xiao Yang collaborated with "Life Events" director Liu Jiangjiang's "Safety in and Out", Andy Lau's "Crisis Route"

, and the key work of Zhao Liying's transformation, "The Road to Fire".

There is even director Lu Chuan who "collided" with Wu Ershan, and his masterpiece "749 Bureau", which took many years, and so on.

Good guy, it seems ordinary but it is actually a fight between gods.

But what can really be called the "king bomb" in the National Day movie is actually this masterpiece:

"Volunteers: Battle of Life and Death"

This film is the second part of the "Volunteers" series (hereinafter referred to as "Volunteers 2") , it was said that the investment cost exceeded 2 billion at that time, and the emphasis was higher than that of "The Wandering Earth 2".

benchmarks the "Changjin Lake" series, which is to create a stronger IP.

Although the first part's reputation at the box office did not meet expectations, in fact, the second part is the real highlight of the film.

No matter the production or the lineup, it is unrivaled in the same series of works. Chen Kaige Is this going to sing all the way again?

Reunion under artillery fire, the Cheorwon Blockade begins

There are three protagonists in the second part, namely Li Xiang played by Zhu Yilong, Li Moyin played by Xin Baiqing, and Li Xiao played by Zhang Zifeng.

A family of three reunited on the battlefield, just thinking about it is enough to bring tears to our eyes.

Among them, Li Moyin is also the protagonist of the first part. He was originally a senior staff officer, but when he saw the emergency of the war ahead, he directly joined the front line.

Li Xiao is the first generation of foreign language talents in New China. He appeared as a translation assistant in "Volunteer Army: Heroes Attack". He only performed well in two scenes.

In the second part, Li Xiao also went directly to the front line where artillery fire was raging. As a rare foreign language talent, he helped the soldiers communicate with the enemy.

As for Li Xiang, he did not appear in the first part and only appeared in the last Easter egg to meet the audience.

So, the first part is just a foreground synopsis.

As a domestic film in the "Volunteer Army" series, the first one is a masterpiece that panoramically displays the main theme of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea , and the second one is naturally the top priority.

This time, the Cheorwon Blockade is the core content, connecting various characters together.

At that time, our army was winning successive victories. Although good news continued from the front, the supplies at the rear could no longer keep up.

Due to the lack of logistics support and serious shortage of food, grass and ammunition, we could only retreat when the situation was good, but at this time, the cunning old Americans suddenly began to launch a counterattack.

Therefore, the frontline soldiers could only fight the enemy until the last moment in extremely bad weather and with an extreme shortage of supplies.

And Li Xiang is the battalion instructor of the 189th Division of the 63rd Army. They even have to be attacked by 3 to 4 American regiments a day.

On the third day, they had to fight with all their strength against the 25th Division of the United States. Even if they suffered heavy casualties, the soldiers did not even have time to feel sorry for their brothers who died in battle. The next second they had to fight the enemy in a bloody battle.

It is worth mentioning that "Volunteers 2" is Zhu Yilong's first attempt at a tough guy image on his transformation journey.

Although he has already taken the throne of Best Actor, it is the first time for Zhu Yilong in his acting career to involve the main theme.

Nowadays, the film market is in a period of sluggishness. If the audience can still sustain the main theme blockbuster even when the audience has developed visual fatigue, I believe that no one in the film industry will be able to match it in the future.

The "Changjin Lake" team is reunited. Can Wu Jing continue to write the myth this time?

In fact, it is not difficult to see that the producers are also interested in the huge traffic brought by the two "Changjin Lake", so they want to show history more comprehensively in order to break the box office ceiling.

Without Lin Chaoxian and Tsui Hark, it still seems a bit difficult for Chen Kaige to play alone, but fortunately, his old partner appears.

Zhu Yawen plays military expert Wu Benzheng in "Volunteers 2".

is still very consistent with his gentle and gentle temperament. He wears small glasses and has an awe-inspiring appearance when he appears. His words are clear and logical, which is completely in line with the setting of an intellectual.

Before, he strongly opposed the proposal to participate in the battle. This time Wu Benzheng will also go to the battlefield in person. I don’t know how touching this character line will be.

Han Dongjun is also here.

I have to say that Chen Kaige really has nothing to say in terms of selecting people.

In fact, Han Dongjun has been in the entertainment industry for many years. Although he has good masterpieces, he has always been in a tepid state. He made a huge turn with the two "Changjin Lake".

is gone forever on the tough guy track. This time he appears in the trailer of "Volunteers 2", although there is only one shot.

looks and feels right no matter how you look at it, there is no sense of inconsistency at all. Even if you tell me that this is Li Xiang, the main male protagonist of the film, I think it is very reasonable.

Of course, Wu Jing was the one who supported the jump from "Changjin Lake" to "Volunteers 2".

Wu Jing’s acting skills needless to say. He is considered the “veteran” who pioneered the path of a tough guy in the film industry. After all, it was only after the two “Wolf Warriors” became a phenomenon that the main theme war theme really became popular. In the new film

, Fu Chongbi, played by Wu Jing, is a key figure in the Cheorwon Blockade.

He is the commander of the 63rd Army. He has a prototype in history and is the superior of the male protagonist Li Xiang in the film.

has rich combat experience and clean and tidy behavior. Don't tell me, just this look in my eyes has made me awe.

’s full energy and unstoppable sharp eyes can really overwhelm the entire audience.

is definitely the best candidate for this role, both in terms of position and acting skills.

In the film, Wu Jing is the special star. I wonder if it can bring new surprises to the audience again.

Conclusion

Two movie kings join forces, with veteran actor Xin Baiqing joining the cast, and young actor Zhang Zifeng helping out. I think "Volunteers 2" has nothing to say in terms of acting.

Although Chen Feiyu’s participation in the film has been controversial, after all, there was no male protagonist in the previous film. This time there is a main story. As a supporting role, Chen Feiyu’s role should not be too much.

Moreover, Wu Jing has not met the audience for nearly a year. This major return may really set a new box office high.

At the same time, the reputation of Zhu Yilong's "Negatives and Positives" has been severely polarized. This time it can just make up for it. It seems that "Volunteers 2" has brought together "the right time, the right place and the right people".

is just one step away from the wind, and we can start our journey.

I wonder if you are looking forward to the blockbuster "Volunteer Army 2" with the strongest publicity during the National Day holiday?
