Chapter 151 Movie Release
While Chen Yimin was recording the Chinese Food Competition.
The movie "Eight Hundred Patriotic Soldiers" that he co-starred with Wu Jing some time ago will also be released in theaters.
In order to promote the film, Wu Jing specially called on some of the main stars to go to various cinemas to meet with fans offline.
Of course, Deng Ziqi and Chen Yimin were also invited this time.
Both of them issued statements on Weibo in advance, saying that they would go to a cinema in a random city to watch the premiere with their fans, and they might meet the stars in the cinema at that time.
After seeing this v-blog, netizens commented below.
[Zha Nan Tuan Youth: Wow, I am really looking forward to it! I hope Chen Yimin and Deng Ziqi can come to our city. When the time comes, I will definitely take my relatives and friends to the cinema to watch the movie and support "Eight Hundred Patriotic Soldiers". ]
[Huabaozi's Comment: I was quite amazed when I saw Chen Yimin's glasses on Happy Family last time. Now that the movie is about to be released, I am looking forward to the performance of the main creative staff in the movie. I hope they will not disappoint me.]
Netizens expressed their support one after another.
This movie is originally about patriotic soldiers. Each soldier has a prototype . After being polished and transformed by the director, it gives people a refreshing feeling.
This is the first time that a movie of this theme has appeared in the Chinese film industry.
If this movie becomes popular, it will push patriotic films to the commanding heights of the film industry and it will also be the best opportunity for Chinese films to go abroad.
The day of the movie's premiere was highly anticipated by all the audience and the creators.
To ensure that the film was not leaked, no one had seen the finished film.
Eason Chan and Tsz Ki-kyung were arranged to be backstage at the cinema in advance to watch the movie with all the audience members.
With the interior headlights turned off.
The name of the movie officially appeared on the screen.
The first half of the movie mainly tells the origin of the story. In a war era, people were homeless and displaced. At this time, the character played by Evan Chan decided to stand up.
Because the main theme of the movie is patriotism.
So the national flag can be seen everywhere on the screen, and when Chen Yimin walked out of the village, he was wearing a hat that symbolized China.
Then when he entered the army to fight the enemy to the death, he was also wearing a military uniform.
Finally, it’s the scene that the audience is most looking forward to.
Chen Yimin was separated from the troops during the march, and he had to go to a remote village, hoping to wait for reinforcements before marching with the army.
But the good times did not last long, as what he waited for was not the Chinese army, but the enemy army.
In the houses of ordinary people, he saw with his own eyes how the enemy army bullied the unarmed civilians, even sparing children and women.
Not only did they rob the common people, they also bullied the women at will.
Treating them as the lowest of slaves, they do things that are simply humiliating in the eyes of ordinary people.
Under pressure from the enemy's army, the common people had no choice but to do as they were asked.
But they knew that Chen Yimin was a soldier of the Chinese army, and they had to protect Chen Yimin.
Even though they were insulted like this by the enemy, they did not reveal where Chen Yimin was hiding.
The oldest person in the village is the village chief.
The leader of the enemy army told the village chief that he would let the people in the village go as long as he told him the route the Chinese army took to leave.
But the village chief would rather die than tell it.
Of course, the village chief suffered a tragic ending in the end and was beaten to death by the enemy.
Chen Yimin hid behind and watched with his own eyes as the village chief was beaten to death with a whip.
He was very angry, but felt more guilty.
If we were stronger, and the Chinese army was stronger, would we allow these enemy troops to come to our country? The people would not be humiliated.
This clip is Evan Chan's highlight moment in the movie.
Because he could not make any sound to be discovered by the enemy army, he had to express vividly the painful and self-blaming expression on his face when he saw civilians being beaten to death in order to protect themselves.
Evan Chan played this role very successfully.
Every move he makes tells the audience what he is thinking.
The movements are neither exaggerated nor lacking.
The audience in the audience couldn't help but shed tears as they watched Chen Yimin's performance and then the scene of the village chief being beaten to death.
They both sympathized with the village chief and were drawn into the role through Evan Chan's interpretation.
My heart seems to be filled with resentment and anger.
In the second half of the movie, when Chen Yimin escaped from the village, there was no one left.
He personally buried the villagers who protected him, and then took a detour to the main force.
Along the way, Chen Yimin met many patriotic fighters.
Of course, he also met the heroine.
The heroine in the movie is set as a nurse, an educated young person who received education during the war years.
Seeing the country being destroyed, I want to defend it just like Chen Yimin.
He met Chen Yimin by chance and saved his life. Later, Chen Yimin was about to leave that place and continue to rush to the main force.
The two had to separate.
Because there are many female audiences watching this movie.
Seeing the reluctance of the two people when they separated, they felt the same way.
There are too many things that cannot be done during the war. Even if you meet the person you want to spend your life with, you have to consider the country on one side and your love for your parents on the other.
But Chen Yimin chose the country without hesitation.
It’s not that he doesn’t love enough, but because he wants to protect more people, including his lover, by defending the country.
In the second half of the movie, 800 patriotic fighters gather together to fight against the enemy country's troops.
The shooting angle of the movie is very strange. The movie was shot through Chen Yimin's vision. In the end, the audience can see that Chen Yimin's eyes are all gray.
Gray represents death.
He saw that the patriotic soldiers who had fought alongside him had turned gray, which meant that they had died.
And Chen Yimin himself was the only person left in this war.
But the final result was good. They won the war and successfully joined the Chinese army.
He not only helped the Chinese army defeat the pursuers behind them, but also gave the people in the front area a chance to survive.
After the movie ended, the audience couldn't let it go for a long time.
Chen Yimin and Deng Ziqi in the backstage also had solemn expressions on their faces.
As actors, they know that acting is acting and life is life, but after filming this drama, they still have the passion to defend the country in their hearts.
Maybe this is the power that this movie brings to everyone.
