documentary film "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru" will be released on September 6. Producer and director Fang Li has been working hard for 8 years and spared no effort to reveal the unknown historical truth that happened in the waters of China's Dongji Island 82 years ago. The cast of " will never be released", with Fang Li as the producer, took advantage of the opportunity of the film's release to "reunite online" and voiced their support for Fang Li and his "directorial debut". In fact, "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru" and "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru" The fate of "See You Again" doesn't stop there.
"When a ship sinks to the bottom of the sea, when a person becomes a mystery...", these are the lyrics of the theme song of the same name written by Han Han for the movie "Unexpectedly". In the past ten years, few people know the meaning behind these lyrics. Hidden is a historical truth that sank for 82 years, and no one has ever mentioned where "this ship" sank? Why did it sink? The mystery has now finally been revealed. The mysterious sunken ship sung about in the song is the "Lisbon Maru".
After the official announcement of "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru", Fang Li published a long article reviewing the creative process, mentioning that in 2014, when he and director Han Han were filming the movie "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru" on Dongji Island, they both heard "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru". The story was deeply touching, and the two of them tacitly commemorated this unknown history in their own way.
Director Han Han wrote the sad lyrics, while Fang Li, who specializes in earth exploration and ocean survey technology, instinctively wanted to search for the "Lisbon Maru" sunken ship that had never been found, and spent 8 years making a documentary film "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru" aims to restore the little-known historical truth of this period. Fang Li used a large number of numbers to tell the story, from the hull structure, the number of Allied prisoners of war in the cabin to the coordinates of the sunken ship, every number is accurate to the last minute, showing the digital logic sensitivity of science students. At the end of the trailer, a series of eye-catching coordinate numbers are reflected The eyes also allow the audience to remember the origin of this story and the storyteller in a digital way.
In the final trailer of "The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru", Fang Li's identity as a "geophysicist" is eye-catching. Fang Li is well-known to the public as a film producer, screenwriter, and producer. For more than 20 years, he has brought different types and themes of big-screen works to the audience, and the stories and characters in his works are always impressive, such as with "The End of the World" with director Han Han and "Broken·Bridge" with director Li Yu. However, the public knows very little about Fang Li’s experience in earth exploration and oceanographic surveys. As early as 1992, Fang Li started his own business, engaged in system integration, R&D and manufacturing of earth exploration and ocean survey technology equipment. In 2002, he successfully searched and located the black box of the Dalian 5.7 air crash. It turns out that Fang Li successfully searched for the "Lisbon Maru" sunken ship and restored the truth behind it, which has long been traced. The Lisbon Maru, which sank 82 years ago, seems to be waiting for Fang Li to come and tell its story to the public.
Fang Li used his frighteningly rigorous logic as a science student from the time he searched for the sunken ship. Not only did they use professional technical equipment such as underwater drones and undersea sonar for multiple detections, but they also analyzed the data and compared it with historical data many times to confirm that the images of the sunken ship matched the historical data. Only then were they convinced that they had found the sunken ship. In the process of searching for the truth, Fang Li traveled to China, the UK, Japan, the United States, and Canada, looking for historical records from different perspectives, checking for gaps and removing holes, and pieced together the pieces with rigorous logic through the narration of more than 130 descendants of those who experienced it. The complete historical truth was revealed.
