Chapter 70 Complicated Mood (Part 1) (3/4)

A lot of media also came to the midnight show...

After all, you have to write a manuscript!

"Legend of the Gods" versus "Eight Hundred", both require a huge investment of 500 million!

It’s not certain who loses or wins.

And I think of the fight between Shen Changlin and Yu Dong during the Spring Festival...

Friends, this is a TV series!

Not only the audience loves to watch this kind of stuff, the media also likes it!

Bona's new PK scenes at that time continued from "Scarred City" vs "Golden Armor" to "Three Guns Surprise" PK "October Siege", and then there was the golden dragon battle recorded in film history - "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" PK "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate"…

The world has changed, now it is Changlin Film and Television PK Bona!

Of course, these are the things that the media cares about, and Yang Tao and Sang Kun are just here to watch the movie.

"Eight Hundred" opens with an interview. "Central Daily News" interviews the Chairman of the Generalissimo about his views on the Battle of Songhu.

Duan Yihong plays the reporter: "Why Shanghai?"

The Chairman had an enigmatic attitude: "Because Shanghai is the most suitable. Shanghai is an international trade port. The destruction of Haikou is not beneficial to any country. It is based on Chinese and foreign perspectives. International perceptions are very important. The war we are currently engaged in is not only China's own. It should be a war on behalf of all nations who have entrusted their lives to the sanctity and inviolability of treaties, especially those who have extensive commercial interests in China and whose interests are now being destroyed and who are being expelled."

"An all-out firefight with the enemy in Shanghai will not only change the Westerners' tendency to underestimate China, but may also lead to mediation or even armed intervention between European and American families. The Songhu War will implicate the interests of various countries in Shanghai, prompting the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union to By waiting for intervention and mediation by major powers or international organizations, we can achieve an overall solution to the Sino-Japanese dispute and achieve the peaceful purpose of protecting existing sovereignty and administrative territorial integrity."

This paragraph was said by the Chairman himself when answering questions from reporters at the beginning of the Battle of Songhu.

It’s not a slander!

This beginning also defines the nature of "Eight Hundred": a very magical war of resistance...

In the eyes of senior officials, this may be a performance, which is why the Fruit Party finally retreated;

But among the soldiers stationed there, this is a struggle to protect their homeland. This is the reason why China will not die!

The screen turned to black, and then the title sequence appeared - "Eight Hundred"!



There is no foreshadowing, and we directly enter the perspective of Duanwu and Xiao Hubei, and arrive at the position of Sihang Warehouse.

The background is that under the situation where the Communist Party army and the Japanese army were retreating steadily in the battle, the 524th Regiment of the 88th Division stayed at the Sihang Warehouse to make a final resistance and win the sympathy of international public opinion.

Sihang Warehouse is a former warehouse of four banks. It has strong walls and abundant reserves. It is backed by the Shanghai Concession and has a large gas tank nearby. At that time, the Japanese army was not only afraid of accidentally injuring the British and French concession troops, but also afraid of causing an uncontrollable explosion. Dare to carry out bombing and large-scale shelling.

But the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. Even if we have the advantage of geographical location, fighting each other and getting into a quagmire will definitely consume the defenders' ability to fight...

At the same time, the military was strictly prohibited from entering the concession.

It can be said that this is a war with almost no hope and is destined to be slowly defeated!

What's even more torturous is that on the south bank of the Suzhou River, just over a hundred meters away, is the concession area where people are feasting, feasting, and fireworks...

In Little Hubei, Dragon Boat Festival is considered a hot-blooded group, Lao Baanpan who can't hold a gun, veteran Yangguai who is a smoker and has excellent marksmanship, and a cowardly Lao Tie who claims to have followed several commanders, are another group of " The representative of the "Old You Tiao" miscellaneous soldiers...

It's very tragic, there is no hope...

Then the camera turned and showed the senior management.

People who are playing tricks of power only use the incident of guarding the Sihang Warehouse as a pawn to influence international public opinion. In the eyes of these people, those brave men who fought to the death are probably nothing more than actors performing on the stage.

Not only these people, but also foreign reporters riding in airships, friends from the concession watching the fire from across the bank, and reporter Fang traveling around with a camera. How could they not be theatergoers?

Therefore, using the Sihang Warehouse as a stage, the entire concession watched a drama from garrison to retreat.

There still has to be a fight!

If you don't shoot battles in "Eight Hundred", what will you shoot?

As a result, Shanghai, which was bombed, hurriedly supported armies from various places in Shanghai. The low-quality old army was suppressed by the modern Japanese army...

On the second day of the battle, the Japanese army occupied the Bank of Communications building on one side of the Sihang Warehouse, and deployed cannon fire at the back of the Sihang Warehouse, threatening to capture the Sihang Warehouse within three hours!

People on the south bank of the river took this as a bet and picked up their telescopes to watch this important event.

In order to defend the warehouse, a group of soldiers tied explosives to their bodies and jumped from the outside of the warehouse, blocking the Japanese attack in the form of human explosives.

Movies can't just copy the information, they must be sensational when it's time to be sensational!

There is a description of the Japanese and Benchmarked armies, which is not long, but enough to make people remember that the Japanese and Benchmarked armies were not just brutal or simply abstractly powerful, nor did they try to exploit the humanity of the invaders in an unconventional way, they were very straightforward.

By showing the tactical literacy and discipline of the Japanese army, it highlights its strength.

The climax of the movie is when the special commissioner played by Liu Yunlong: "The 700,000 national troops collapsed, and Shanghai can still hold on with just a few hundred people guarding a four-row warehouse? What a joke!"

"This battle is just a show, and behind the war is politics!"

"Why must this battle be fought in Shanghai? Have you ever thought about it?"

Before Wang Lei could say anything (Xie Jinyuan played by Wang Lei), Liu Yunlong answered himself: "Because there are a large number of British and American loanees in Shanghai, it is possible for Britain and the United States to intervene if we play in Shanghai!"

Wang Lei's voice was hoarse and he asked one word at a time: "Does it mean that I, China, must rely on foreign countries?"

Liu Yunlong couldn't bear to look at him, but looked at the feasting and feasting on the other side of the river, and said: "Shangfeng has been thinking about foreign intervention from the beginning, so even if our army suffered heavy losses, it still required that it must withstand three months. Before

The League of Nations decided to hold a nine-nation meeting in Brussels, the European headquarters, in November to discuss the issue of benzene! Now, the Brussels meeting has been postponed, which can also be said to have ended early. The delegation has explored the attitudes of various countries, and no country is willing to help us.

."

He turned around and took out the order (the order to retreat): "Now Britain requires us to leave, lest the war spread to the British Concession..."

Then, Liu Yunlong said in a mocking tone: "The chairman of the Generalissimo has a wonderful calculation, but he never imagined that Britain and the United States didn't care at all. They still wanted to go north to deal with the Soviet Union after Japan occupied China!"

Wang Lei said nothing and pointed outside the warehouse: "Look at the other side, the people are looking at us. Their enthusiasm for resisting Japan is getting stronger and stronger... because we are not doing useless work, we... we are not only resisting the Japanese here."

, we are here to see them, the Chinese soldiers are still there..."

"I know you have already risked your life and death, but if you don't retreat and the war breaks out, who do you think will be the unlucky one? If the Japanese army uses heavy artillery tomorrow, the 500,000 cubic meters of gas in this warehouse will explode, and the Chinese people in the concession will

Can’t the common people be buried with him?”

"Bombings, deaths, separation of wives and children, how many soldiers have sacrificed, huge disparity in strength, and three months of fierce fighting, the overall situation in Shanghai has been decided! Let's go, the British side agrees to let you use the road to withdraw, this is what you fought for!

"

Wang Lei was shocked, angry, and confused, muttering to himself: "...Let's go? Where to go? After Shanghai is Nanjing..."

"History will remember this place, remember these people, and remember you!"

There is no way, the climax can only fall here!

Historically, Xie Jinyuan and his guard troops eventually withdrew into the concession.

It cannot end with a tragic sacrifice.

Retreat is a retreat after all, and it is difficult to be completely sublimated into solemnity...

Upgraded shot, a group of people slowly walked into the concession...

Then, the movie stopped abruptly, the screen went black, and then it lit up again to show an old man - Xie Jimin, the son of Mr.

Of...Xie Jinyuan was killed by a traitor, and the solitary army camp was also captured by the Japanese and Ben people as coolies..."

The voice-over should be Shen Changlin's voice: "Old sir, do you think the 'Battle of Sihang Warehouse' is meaningful?"

"It must be meaningful. Isn't there a song called "Song of the Eight Hundred Heroes"? 'China will not die, China will not die. Look at the national hero Captain Xie, China will not die, China will not die. You

Look at those eight hundred warriors defending the eastern battlefield alone..."

"I think so too!"
