Chapter 284: A Brave and Loyal Person, Resigning (23)

Shen Santong was calm and didn't do anything with Liu Yifei and her daughter.

It is just a simple business investment, and when it is executed, it will be penetrated through the Hong Kong Island account.

When the press release is released, Tianxian has tied up the rich man from Hong Kong Island, and he himself will hide behind it.

Liu Yifei’s identity label is too strong and will affect his purity.

He also has an identity label, the light of domestic films.

Liu Yifei's spectrum is completely opposite to his.

It's like chatting and laughing with overseas media who spread rumors, and then bragging about how firm your stance is. It's just a joke that deceives yourself.

Shen Santong is very calm, and many forces want to deal with him.

They are entangled together, and as the situation changes, it is beyond our control.

After a few years, at most ten years, Shen Santong will not care, because the internal and external environment will change.

But at this point in time, there are still some impacts.

Be moderate when you need to be moderate.

Shen Santong continued filming in an orderly manner.

Discussed with Yuan Heping: "Just like Rambo in First Blood, there is no need for too many tricks. Zhao Yun is just strong, and there is no need to explain his strength."

"The arrows flew at us, but we couldn't kill him. He would kill us instead."

Yuan Heping hesitated: "Will the audience not be able to accept it? This is too invincible and unreasonable."

Shen Santong insisted on his own requirements: "The character of Zhao Yun has historical blessings, and the audience will also be more patient with my movie."

It is indeed a problem. Not everyone can open the Wushuang mode if they want to.

Like Cheng Long in "The Foreigner", he doesn't need to explain.

It is this face that, even though it is very old, still has the screen power accumulated over many years.

He fought so hard that the audience took it for granted.

Wu Jing's screen image cannot make him unconditionally invincible, but after three dramas, Shen Santong has already had a deep audience base.

If you are a little more invincible, the audience will accept it.

In addition, as a historical figure, Zhao Yun has reality to support him and he has his own highlights, so it is not a big problem.

In the novel, Zhao Yun went in and out seven times, which seems exaggerated, but history is even more exaggerated than the novel.

Historically, Zhao Yun killed his way through Changbanpo, and Cao Cao only got the aftermath of Zhao Yun's attacks.

The successful group was the one who found Madam Gan and Liu Chan, and then took four Han soldiers, each with a horse and a carriage, and went straight to Gaoda to lead the way.

There is no record in history of killing so many soldiers as described in the novel.

In the Battle of Red Cliffs, whether it was Cao Cao, Sun Quan or Liu Bei, almost no well-known generals and counselors were killed.

Only a few surrendered generals from Jingzhou died, including Cai Mao, Cai Zhong, Cai He, and Zhang Yun.

Shen Santong used the story from official history, which did not include the plot where Cao Cao refused to shoot the arrow because he loved his talent.

It doesn't make sense at all. It's okay for a TV series, but not for a movie.

If Cao Cao had the chance, he would definitely kill Zhao Yun and capture Liu Chan.

Liu Chan was the eldest son, and Liu Bei had few sons. Whether he was captured alive or killed, it would be a heavy blow to Liu Bei's forces.

In the official history, Zhao Yun was very strong, and his charisma was no less than that in the novel.

The greatest chivalrous man is one who serves his country and his people. Zhao Yun has always been carrying out his chivalrous spirit.

This is the biggest difference between Zhao Yun and other generals.

Therefore, Zhao Yun will have a bonus of faith in battle, so he will be "brave" and be known as the "General with Tiger Power".

In the Battle of Red Cliffs, all three forces, whether it was Cao Wei or Sun Wu, had selfish desires.

Only in the Shu Han team, Shen Santong's portrayal places more emphasis on unity and solidarity.

Don’t engage in conspiracy theories, just punish evil and promote good.

Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Zhao Yun are all people of noble character.

Zhao Yun not only saved A Dou, but also rescued Mrs. Gan.

He has a side that is extremely powerful, but he is more of a security captain who is dedicated to his duties, has high moral character, and fights for his ideals in this chaotic world where people eat each other.

Shen Santong's filming of the scene where Zhao Yun breaks through Changbanpo was clumsy.

This was his first time to perform such a large number of action scenes, but fortunately Yuan Heping was experienced.

Shen Santong didn't want anything romantic; the design was relatively simple.

Yu Rongguang also came to help. In this play, Yu Rongguang made a friendly guest appearance and he has a deep foundation in martial arts.

Wu Jing had worked in the Hong Kong film crew before and they were familiar with each other.

In addition, Shen Santong had very strong control over the crew, so the filming went relatively smoothly.

Background: Liu Cong concealed the news, so Liu Bei got the news of Cao Cao's attack very late and quickly took his men to escape.

Because Cao Cao was famous for massacring the city, more than 100,000 people hurriedly followed him.

Liu Bei was indeed a gentleman. Not only did he say "people first" when crossing the river, he also did so.

He fled with a large number of people and thus missed the deadline for capturing Jiangling.

Cao's cavalry attacked and Liu Bei was forced to abandon the people and flee.

At this time, the roads and fields were full of people, carrying the elderly and children, crying and howling. Zhao Yun's task was to escort Liu Bei's family, including Madam Gan, Madam Mi, and Adou, as they retreated.

The strategic objectives of Cao's army were very clear. The first goal was to capture Jiangling, the second was to prevent Liu Bei from going to Jiangling, and the third was to capture Liu Bei.

Cao Cao's troops would not care about the small soldiers or ordinary people.

They raced against time and marched quickly to seize the strategic location of Jiangling.

After occupying the strategic location, all enemies are trapped in a jar and can be easily captured.

It is against this background that Zhao Yun's battle at Changbanpo occurs.

When common people were fleeing all over the mountains and plains, a man named Zhao Zilong, who was very skilled in martial arts, suddenly appeared. He was covered in blood and dirt and looked just like an ordinary person.

He was followed by soldiers covered in dust and dirt, who launched a surprise attack.

He went against the flow all the way, and instead of escaping, he went to look for the young master.

Cao's army was not mentally prepared at all and had no way to take any precautions.

One by one, they were stabbed to death without any preparation, and Zhao Yun ran away after fighting without getting involved.

This kind of cross-battle where there is me in the enemy and the enemy in me relies on the "courage of the common people".

Zhao Yun just had one breath left, and that was to find the missing Liu Chan and rescue him.

Moreover, Cao's army did not surround Zhao Yun in a circle, but were scattered, because the purpose of the march was not to annihilate the enemy, but to march quickly to seize strategic points.

At this time, Zhao Yun fought and marched all the way, and not only found the young master, but also found Madam Gan.

All the way was with fireworks and lightning. He carried Liu Chan on his back and fought his way through the encirclement, and finally met Zhang Fei at Dangyang Bridge.

The key to Zhao Yun's ability to save his lord was not only his martial arts, but his loyalty was the main one.

In the chaotic situation, the key is not to choose to run away, but to fight back.

He deserves the eight words "brave, loyal and righteous".

Wu Jing presented it very well.

After the literary drama was over, he started rehearsing the movements.

After training in the army for almost a year, his movements became neat and tidy.

He already looks 50% like Leng Feng of later generations, but lacks the support of a screen role.

Filmed the last scene of snatching the horse.

Yuan Heping had a lot of communication with Shen Santong during this period.

I have a higher regard for Shen Santong. The crew has such a strong control.

There are so many extras and the management is very well organized.

It gave him the feeling that it was not a mainland crew or a Hong Kong crew, but more like a Hollywood crew.

Yuan Heping saw some of Shen Santong's intentions, and looked at Wu Jing who was performing and said, "Are you trying to create a new generation of kung fu superstar?"

Shen Santong said: "It's hard to be a Kung Fu superstar. That era is over. I want to try to be an action superstar."

Yuan Heping felt mixed emotions as he pondered over Shen Santong's words.

He watched Cheng Long rise to prominence, and it was he who designed the drunken boxing that made Cheng Long famous.

He also designed the bamboo ladder battle in Jet Li's and Wong Fei-hung's films.

Shen Santong’s requirement for martial arts instructors is not kung fu, but movements.

It's not about the actors' martial arts themselves, but the links.

It is completely different from those elegant, complex and gorgeous martial arts moves. The complexity lies in the levels, not the movements.

The story of Zhao Yun rescuing his lord involves many small levels and challenges.

Grabbing knives, dodging arrows, throwing knives, grabbing horses, cutting flags, etc. Through level design and the performance of the opponent actors, it can be said that there is drama in every link.

The main feature of Shen Santong's version of Zhao Yun is not his handsomeness, but his bravery.

Inner being is loyalty and righteousness, outer being is bravery and courage.

After the last scene, the horse-grabbing battle, Shen Santong announced, "We're going to finish work early today. Thank you for your hard work. The Changbanpo scene is over."

Wu Jing also finished filming and there was a small wrap-up party.

He was very excited. Zhao Yun had a lot of roles to play. After the Battle of Soldiers Assault and Red Cliff, he had a vague feeling that he had found his future path.

I was very grateful to Shen Santong and drank two bottles of white wine.

Shen Santong was almost afraid that he would drink himself to death.

4 month 27 day.

Shen Santong's "Red Cliff" entered the final stage.

The plot of Zhao Yun rescuing his lord has been filmed, leaving only some war scenes.

Wu Yusen's version of "Red Cliff" used the Bagua Formation and Huiguang Formation, but Shen Santong didn't do anything fancy.

According to the real war situation, soldiers marched according to the terrain and coordinated in small groups.

It shows a continuous and orderly march, highlighting the majesty of the military formation.

When Shen Santong's Red Cliff was nearing its end, Wu Yusen's was just beginning.

Problems arose right from the start and Zhou Runfa quit the show.

Instead of playing a Three Kingdoms hero, play a pirate.
