On September 18, 1931, the Japanese Kwantung Army stationed in northeast China suddenly attacked Shenyang and invaded and occupied northeast China by force, known in history as the "918 Incident", which is now the 90th anniversary.
The September 18 Incident was a war of aggression deliberately created and launched by Japan and was the beginning of the Japanese imperialist invasion of China. The September 18 Incident also marked the starting point of the world anti-fascist war and opened the prelude to the eastern battlefield of World War II.
Recently, I had the opportunity to revisit the red classic movie, and I watched the famous film "Tunnel Warfare" that I was familiar with when I was a teenager.
This film is a classic among the early film classics in china, and it is known from the data that the 35 mm copy of the film (cinema) was distributed 3,000, and the 16 mm copy (rural open air) was distributed 6,000, and the number of viewers at that time was as high as 1.8 billion. This is Mount Everest in the history of world cinema. It is reported that the film studio has declared and won the Guinness Book of World Records for the number of copies distributed and the number of viewers.
Knowing that I was also one in 1.8 billion, although it was only one of the vicissitudes of the sea, it was also a real drop, and my heart also surged with inexplicable emotions. I was close to this movie more than a dozen times in the open-air movie in the countryside, not only was the plot too familiar to be familiar, but the lines of the dialogue could be memorized with 90% accuracy. I also have a special love for movie music, the music of digging tunnels, the music of the old man ringing the bell and the ghost soldiers racing, and the music of the wolf smoke on the Jizhong Great Plain and the big scene of the people fleeing, can be sung. Because of eating the media meal, in the years to come, there are still opportunities to have a little story with the inside and outside of this film work.
The first is about the composer Fu Gengchen. When he was the chairman of the China Music Association, he traveled to Suzhou on business and gave me an exclusive interview. Many people talking about his music in this movie, they will definitely mention a song he added when he scored the film, "Chairman Mao's Words on the Heart", which is very harmonious with the plot and very beautiful, and has become a classic in film music. I didn't ask him this question, but asked him that the heavy use of the violin in the music of this film should have something to do with the fact that he was a violinist. He nodded, saying that no entertainment journalist had interviewed his Tunnel Wars music like that. He carefully recalled the way he learned the violin and wrote this work when he was young, which was very emotional.
Then, later, he dined with Zhu Longguang, the actor of the male number one in the film. Zhu Longguang became famous as the militia captain Gao Chuanbao in "Tunnel Warfare". It is said that when the director was selecting actors, he only looked at Zhu Longguang and decided that this role was none other than him, and evaluated it with six words: "handsome, mighty, and good play". Because he later played the Buddha of Rulai in "Journey to the West", and the young colleagues of other media in the same city also interviewed him, only to organize some materials and photos for the performance of this TV series, of course, I grabbed his wonderful performance in "Tunnel War" and selected pictures. After the report came out, the young colleague was severely criticized by the boss, who asked him to read the interview I wrote about Zhu Longguang three times. This made me feel deeply overwhelmed and guilty. Actually, I can't be entirely blamed for this. At that time, at the dinner table, everyone ate together, laughing and talking continuously, and young colleagues should be able to distinguish which work is Zhu Longguang's masterpiece. At the dinner table, not only did I recite large sections of dialogue in a colorful way, but I also improvised a small poem called "Hero Complex" and read it impromptu.
A teenager's hero complex / On the old bronze bell at the head of Gaojiazhuang Village / On the head of Gao Chuanbao's digging tunnel / Of course also in his "attention of the various groups" order / On the double gun that overturns the bottom of the pot / Opens the bow left and right / On the crosshair of his trigger / Hit the devil commander's ass / / The teenager is about to become old, and finally / The hero on the screen descends to the audience / At a dinner party in Gusu City / He and the teenager of the year cheered / Rushed to recite the lines in the play / And, with chopsticks / Pick up a grenade-like bone / Pulling ring-like tendons on the bones / Leaning back on the neck again / Drying a cup of war-torn shochu / Lighting up the blush of the cheeks...
My little poem won warm applause at the dinner table. And Zhu Longguang, applause does not count, he also learned to use the classic of the puppet army Tang Commander played by the famous performance artist Liu Jiang in the play, stomped his thumb, and said: High! It's really high! (Liu Fang)
