Before starting to write, Xu Ning reviewed the movie "Assembly", and scenes flashed quickly in his mind.
On the snow-covered land of Huaihai, a charge horn suddenly sounded, and the soldiers jumped out of the bunker and launched a fearless charge... When the comrades around them fell one by one, no one retreated... This is our cutest soldier!
As he thought about it, he thought of his uncle who had died on the Laoshan front line many years ago and had only met twice.
That was 1985.
He was only 5 years old at the time. His brother-in-law, who had not been back for several years, came home from the army to visit relatives. However, within a few days he received an order to return to the army urgently. After leaving, he never came back.
It wasn't until the summer vacation on the third day of the Lunar New Year in 1995 that he went to the border with his grandparents and uncles to visit his uncle once.
In that solemn cemetery, he saw countless ancestors who had sacrificed their lives and shed blood for the motherland.
…
After a long time, after trying hard to calm down, Xu Ning allowed himself to return to the creation of the script outline again.
In the "Assembly Call", the regiment leader asked the Ninth Company where Gu Zidi was located to go to the south bank of the Wen River to intercept the enemy troops, and agreed to use the assembly call as an order. If he heard the call, he would retreat, and if he didn't hear it, he would hold his position.
In the end, all the remaining 48 people in the company, except Gu Zidi, died heroically, but sadly, all 47 heroes were treated as missing.
For many years, Gu Zidi has been deeply worried about this.
He kept wondering whether the group leader had ordered the rally horn to be blown, and finally he got the answer - no.
The regiment leader Liu Zeshui was worried that the large army would be attacked by the enemy, so he did not let the trumpeter play the trumpet.
Gu Zidi felt that he and his comrades had been deceived, so he was extremely angry. The saddest thing was that his dead comrades were regarded as missing persons and could not be designated as martyrs, which made him unable to let go.
Xu Ning looked at the few lines written on the computer screen and pondered for a long time, "Should we follow the story of the original movie?"
The original film's handling of the origins of the story was a bit flawed, such as, "Why didn't the trumpet sound?"
The answer given in Feng Xiaogang's version is - the regiment commander had to sacrifice the Ninth Company in order to prevent the large army from being bitten by the enemy behind him.
This answer given in the movie is a bit inappropriate. Looking at this statement after considering the cause and effect will make some people think that the leader is deceiving the Nine Company.
But in fact, there is no deception. Anyone who has watched the movie carefully knows that what the leader said at that time was:
"If you can't hear the trumpet sound, even if you kill the last person left, you have to continue to fight for me."
Gu Zi De saluted: "Yes!"
here,
Everyone can understand that this blocking battle has a narrow chance of death, and Gu Zidi should expect the worst outcome.
But the movie gives people the feeling that Gu Zidi didn't understand what the group leader said. At the beginning of the movie, he accused him of lying in front of the old group leader's tombstone.
This kind of performance brought down the level of the male protagonist Gu Zidi and turned him into a inconsistent person.
On the one hand, he was brave and fearless on the battlefield and took the lead, while on the other hand, he accused the regiment leader of lying and not blowing the rally call.
If Gu Zidi really risked his life and devoted himself to the victory of the revolution, then he would not have cursed and smashed the wine bottle in front of the regimental leader's tombstone.
After all, the regiment leader died as a hero fighting in the Korean War. To scold such a heroic figure for deceiving the Ninth Company... is very inappropriate.
This is also the reason why some people criticized later movies after they were released, because they portrayed the feelings of the revolutionary martyrs about their family and country in a too parsimonious way.
"If I want to remake the film, I must handle these two issues. The first is to handle the contradiction of why the assembly call cannot be heard! The second is the character of Feng Feng Gu Zi Di."
As for the first point, it is actually easy to explain. The battlefield situation is constantly changing. In the end, the rally call was not blown because it was impossible to blow it.
If this point is made clear, the story will be more perfect and people will not mistakenly think that the group leader is deceiving Gu Zidi.
If the characters of Gu Zi Di are fleshed out, the film will be more reasonable, and I believe the result will be even better.
He thought about these two issues for a long time, tapped his fingers on the table and muttered to himself: "The regiment retreated - the trumpeter blew the trumpet - a stray bullet hit - the trumpet did not sound."
If arranged this way, the story would become: the war situation was urgent, the regiment commander arranged for the large troops to withdraw first, and ordered the trumpet player. Three hours after the troops withdrew, the assembly horn was sounded, but when the trumpeter was blowing the trumpet in the rear, he was hit by a stray bullet.
He was hit in the neck and fell unconscious, so that the Ninth Company did not hear the trumpet sound.
Everything goes smoothly, and it won't make people think that the leader is lying to the soldiers, and it will also bury a plot point.
After thinking clearly, Xu Ning's hands flew quickly on the keyboard, and in just over an hour, he wrote an outline of more than 3,500 words.
During this period, the eldest sister came to call him to eat but was rejected. After all, he couldn't be distracted while coding.
By the time I finished writing it all, it was already past one o'clock, and my stomach was already growling with hunger.
"Yin Yin, is there any food left?" He shouted outside, and soon Liu Yinyin came running over.
"Yes, I've kept it for you."
"Okay, let's warm it up and I'll go outside to the living room to eat." After saying that, he patted his butt and walked out.
At this time, everyone in the company was chatting outside. When they saw Xu Ning coming, they all stood up to say hello.
80% of these employees are female, and they are all highly educated, including one from Peking University.
This is one of the benefits of a top star starting a company. He doesn't have to worry about recruiting high-level talents, because these people are his fans and are rushing to come and work.
"Let's continue chatting." After he finished speaking, he sat down to eat and chatted with people in the company while eating.
Nowadays, most of the company's operations are handed over to Manager Liu, who only takes action on major strategies.
The company's artist department is solely in charge of the eldest sister Xu Xiuyan. There are not many artists signed currently, so it is not busy.
Since he was going to CCTV in the afternoon to participate in the last rehearsal without makeup, he asked Manager Liu to report to him about his recent work.
""Bright Sword" must be followed up carefully. I value this TV series more. In addition, I can find some TV series to invest in."
"Okay Mr. Xu."
"We should also keep an eye on the dividends from movies and albums, and urge the theaters to pay as soon as possible. After delaying for so long, hundreds of thousands in interest are gone."
"That's right, those people are too thieves."
"I've written the outline of the script. You go to my office and get it. I'll tell you the key points and have someone write the script as soon as possible."
…
3:50 pm.
After waiting for more than ten minutes at Beijing International Airport, he saw Fang Long and Fang Xiaoming approaching with suitcases.
After waiting for another twenty minutes, Jie Lun appeared outside the car window wearing a black leather jacket and carrying a small bag, followed by Fang Wenshan.
These two couples are really inseparable. Jie Lun has to take Wenshan with him wherever he goes, which is even more boring than the couple.
After a few people met, they drove directly towards CCTV Studio No. 1 without having time to get together.
Today is the last rehearsal without makeup, and in a few days there will be a rehearsal with makeup.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, the streets also feel like the Spring Festival, with lanterns and colorful lights everywhere. When I pass by several shopping malls, I hear his New Year song "Gong Xi Fa Cai" playing from the loudspeakers.
The only song that can compete with this song is "Mouse Loves Rice" by Yang Chenggang.
These two songs almost occupy stores of all sizes. "The First Snow in 2002" may not be included in the merchants' daily repertoire, but these two songs are definitely included.
"Brother Ning, this song of yours is so good...ah, it hurts." Fang Xiaoming was halfway through his words when he was slapped on the head by his father, Fang Long.
"There are no brats, big or small. I call Xu Ning brother and sister, and you also call me brother and brother. Do you want to be my brother?!"
"Haha..." Several people in the car laughed.
Fang Xiaoming said sheepishly: "Hey, there was a slip of the tongue. Uncle Ning, your song is really nice."
Xu Ning is only two years older than Fang Xiaoming, but he actually became his uncle... It's quite embarrassing. Doesn't this call him old?
"Brother Long, it feels weird to call me uncle. I'm only in my twenties." Xu Ning said with a smile while driving.
Fang Long was very happy, sitting on the passenger seat with his legs crossed: "Haha, shouting like this makes me look young."
…
soon.
When the car arrived at Studio No. 1, a large group of young people could be seen in the distance crowded at the entrance.
Many people were holding an album in their hands. The cover looked like "To the Future" and they were waiting there eagerly.
Because the car had a privacy film on it and couldn't see inside, fans didn't notice them.
Fang Long: “These are all your fans.”
Xu Ning: "No, there are also Jie Lun."
Fang Long: "Anyway, there is no one without me. Alas, it seems that I am really old."
Jay Chou: "No, no, Brother Long, you are taking the route of strength, which is different from us who rely on face."
It would have been better not to say this, but after saying it, Fang Long felt even more sad... He said with a sad face: "I am also very handsome, okay."
"Haha, my brother Long is the most handsome." Xu Ning put her arm around his shoulders, "Brother Long's looks are very good for his age group."
"Yes, I can fight quite well, haha, what I just said is flawed." Jay Chou immediately added, and then asked doubtfully, "By the way, what is good looks?"
To be continued...
