came to Changying, Wu Zhaodi first served as an assistant director in the industrial film "Infinite Potential". Due to his outstanding performance, in 1955, he was organized and arranged to co-direct the film "Plain Guerrillas" with director Suri. As a war film, "Plain Guerrilla" adopts a thriller mode, with ups and downs and interlocking plots, which is highly ornamental. "Double-gun Li Xiangyang" right-handed box cannon, left-handed speed machine, and continuous killing of the enemy scene Make people bloody.
Of course, the film was remade in color in the 1970s, and Wu Zhaodi is still the director. But it may be affected by the situation at the time. This remake has mixed reviews and insufficient influence. For example, it is also Li Xiangyang. The old version of Guo Zhenqing is famous all over the world, but the new version of Li Tiejun is almost unknown.
In the autumn of 1955, Wu Zhaodi entered the director's specialization class of Beijing Film Academy. After that, he directed "Looking for Love", "Underground Vanguard", "Construction Site Youth", "The Story of Red Scarf", "Side by Side", "Sisters on Ice" and "Seven Days and Seven Nights".

The work that made Wu Zhaodi a meritorious director is "Heroes". In 1963, Changying decided to make the film "The Sons and Daughters of Heroes" with the theme of Anti-US Aid Korea. As Wu Zhaodi had a life experience in the Korean battlefield, he was organized to direct this key film. He also wanted to pay tribute to those brave and fearless through such a film, and through his own interpretation, the noble heroism It blends with the deep and kind humanity in the movie. The
movie "The Sons and Daughters of Heroes" was a great success. The character images of Wang Cheng, Wang Fang, Director Wang and "Anthem of Heroes" all exude a long-lasting artistic charm, which is deeply stored in the memory of generations of Chinese people. As a result, the film has become one of the most outstanding films in Chinese film history.

We know that Wang Cheng's phrase "For victory, shoot me!" in "Heroes and Children" has inspired countless Chinese people.

Changying decided that after Wu Zhaodi put Ba Jin's novelette "Reunion" on the screen, he studied and adapted it day and night. One day, Bai Dezhang, the third squad leader of "Visitors on the Iceberg," was passionately reading an article in a book called "A Day in the Volunteer Army" about an article "Shooting at Me", which happened to be heard by Meng Xianying.
After returning home, Meng Xianying talked to her husband about the scene of Bai Dezhang reading the article, and emphasized that "fire at me" was particularly infectious. Wu Zhaodi believed that when the script was written, he would "fire at me" fully. Incorporated into the script.
