The

film opened with the battle of Changbanpo. After Cao Cao defeated Liu Bei, he believed that Jiangdong was the threat to his dominance of the world. In addition, Cao Cao's beloved Xiaoqiao swearing to death made him furious and insisted on attacking Jiangdong. Sun Quan sent Lu Su to meet with Liu Bei in the name of condolences Liu Biao to discuss the joint anti-Cao. After Liu Bei agreed to join Jiangdong to fight against Cao, he sent Zhuge Liang to Jiangdong. Sun Quan’s younger sisters Sun Shangxiang and Lu Su strengthened Sun Quan’s determination to resist Cao with a radical general method, and recalled Zhou Yu and to preside over the fight against Cao. The two armies finally met in Chibi. Xiao Qiao visited Cao Ying at night and discussed the tea ceremony with Cao Cao. In the end, the coalition forces defeated Cao Jun. Xiao Qiao and his son were safe and sound.

1, when Wu Yusen was about 10 years old, he used a brush to draw the figures of the Three Kingdoms on the glass to simulate a movie, and finally made a movie.

2, Ye Jintian asked Zhang Fengyi to play Cao Cao, but the crew almost gave up because of his health and decent appearance.

3. Lin Chiling's figure is not suitable for Chinese women in ancient costumes. Because it is too tall and has Western standards, it is difficult to meet the definition of classical beauty. Therefore, Ye Jintian deliberately lowered Xiao Qiao's clothes and added overlapping ones. Match.

4. Since the preparation of "Red Cliff", there have been constant tribulations. Due to the inconsistency with the director's philosophy, the martial arts director was replaced by Yuan Kui in the middle. Some scenes previously filmed must also be reshot; the photographer Lu Le had to leave the group because of the schedule. Especially when Chow Yun-fat broke the contract halfway, the setting, costumes, etc. had to be redesigned due to the changes in the protagonist. 5. In addition, the film was originally scheduled to be shot in the Yangtze River in Hubei before the filming started, but due to environmental issues, it had to be temporarily changed to the Hebei studio. The heavy rain during the filming stopped the filming work again and again; the aerial vehicle crashed; A fire broke out and a staff member was burned to death.

6. Cao Jun’s camp set up in Hebei before shooting the war scene. The reservoir and surrounding mountains used to shoot the water battle have also been handed over to the post-computer special effects department for framing, made into a three-dimensional model and brought back to the United States. The mountain shape of Jiangnan is completely different, so it must be synthesized by computer.

7. During the filming period, about 2,000 warships of various ancient props were gathered in a reservoir surrounded by mountains in Hebei to shoot large scenes. And Wu Yusen will integrate three-dimensional computer technology to transform this reservoir into the Yangtze River, and transform the surrounding mountains into Chibi. Five well-known American computer stunt companies will be responsible for the computer animation part of the film.

8. Since 2004, the producer has searched for excellent screenwriters from various sources, brainstormed, and determined that the original script outline divides the story of "The Battle of Chibi" into 6 paragraphs, namely "Liu Bei benevolent for the people" and "二乔" Take "Yi", "Kong Mingzhi to excite Zhou Yu", "Zhou Yu borrowed a knife to kill", "Kong Ming's grass boat borrowed an arrow" and "Take the east wind to burn Chibi", and invited Zou Jingzhi, known as "China's No. .

9. The director Wu Yusen was not satisfied after watching it. He hoped that the characters in the film would change without the background of "The Battle of Chibi": Liu Bei would no longer be cowardly, Cao Cao would no longer be treacherous, and Zhou Yu would no longer be careful. So in 2006, Wu Yusen invited Lu Wei, another screenwriter from the film circle, to his door to polish the existing script, which has been changed to the ninth draft by Lu Wei.

The description of ancient weapons and ancient tactics in "Red Cliff" is wonderful. In the past film and television works, there are very few expressions of formations, "Chibi uses a lot of space to describe ancient formations. Ancient wars were never street gang fights. Everyone rushed up with knives and guns to hack and kill, and those who were bold enough would win.

In ancient wars, both parties must form a battle formation, the so-called marching formation. Marching refers to the state of the army marching into the theater, and the deployment is the state of fighting after reaching the theater. Ancient military strategists attached great importance to the use of formations, and various weapons and arms must cooperate well to defeat the enemy. Some people also think that the serious injury of "Red Cliff" lies in its funny lines. As a cultural commodity, the primary purpose of the film is to sell and sell well, although Wu Yusen deliberately (designed like this, in order to keep up with the previous The products are differentiated and made into products with special characteristics. Because the story of the Three Kingdoms is basically familiar to everyone, as before, there is no interest in reading it. According to the characteristics of the cultural industry, its entertainment, fashion, and experience are basic Features. To do well in the cultural industry, you must make a fuss about the three sexes. Although the film satisfies the laughter, it loses its seriousness. What is your different view on this film?
