“I’ve already entered half of the coffin, and it’s only been a few years!” The old man sighed.
Meng Fei smiled and said, “Wow! We wish the old people a long life, and you have nearly twenty years left!”
The old man waved his hand and said, “No, no, I want to watch the fight. I’ve already watched the fight. That’s fine!”
“It’s just… I still want to see some of my old friends, that’s enough!”
Meng Feibai waved to the accompanying staff and asked, “Is his current physical condition allowed to take the car?”
The staff member nodded and said, “Yes, as long as you are careful on the road, there will be no major problems.”
Meng Feibai nodded and said, “Then do you think this is okay? After we visit all the veterans, tomorrow we will take those who are still healthy and go to the National War Cemetery together.”
“Mr. Xiaomeng, there are at least a hundred veterans in Tengchong.Is the responsibility a bit too great? “The staff hesitated.
Meng Feibai was also lost in thought. You must know that the youngest of these veterans is nearly 80 years old, and there are more than 100 of them. If any accident occurs on the road, this responsibility, not to mention Meng Feibai, even Comrade Meng can’t bear it. rise.
Meng Feibai sighed and said, “Forget it, I won’t be a good person. After visiting, I’ll just go and sweep the grave.”
The staff also breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that if something really happened to these veterans, it would not only be the country looking for trouble, but also the people’s saliva would flood them.
Meng Feibai also felt that what he said just now was a bit irresponsible. Fortunately, he didn’t make a promise to the old man, otherwise he really didn’t know how to deal with it.
“Grandpa, can we take a photo? We’re leaving!” Meng Feibai walked in and said with a smile.
“Taking pictures? I still have photos of me when I was young. Let me take photos together with a bucket!” As he said that, he went back to the room to get the photos.
Meng Feibai hurriedly helped the old man into the house.
The old man was very handsome when he was young, and there was a heroic spirit between his brows.
Now, although the old man is old, his heroic spirit is still there, and Meng Feibai can clearly feel it when standing beside him.
Afterwards, Meng Feibai visited the veterans one by one, listened to them tell their stories, and then took pictures.
It was already evening when the visit was over.
Of the more than one hundred veterans, none of them looked like those in the TV dramas.
No one talked about being for the country and the nation, but very calmly told stories to Meng Feibai and the others.
Similarly, once it is slightly mentioned that compensation or help will be given to them. These old people immediately lost their temper, as if they wanted to move people away.
Walking on the small road in the ancient town, Meng Fei’s white eyes were a little sore.
“That…” Meng Feibai shouted to the big boss of the government.
The boss leaned over and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Meng Feibai thought for a long time and said, “Eh…be nicer to these old people! Without them, today might not be what it is!”
The boss nodded, and said very seriously: “I know! We are also doing this. It is also our responsibility to ensure the livelihood of these veterans.”
Meng Feibai nodded: “That’s good! Thank you for making a special trip to accompany me. Tomorrow, we can go to the National Cemetery by ourselves.”
“No, I still have to go. I didn’t visit the grave this year during the Qingming Festival, just like you, let’s make it up!” The boss sighed.
Meng Fei thought for a while, then nodded and said, “Okay, thank you for your hard work.”
. . . . . .
The next day, Meng Feibai and others went to the National War Cemetery to sweep the graves, and of course there was a filming task.
To edit the videos of the National War Cemetery and those veterans to make a promotional video, this is the main task of Meng Feibai’s visit to Tengchong this time.
This may be the most serious occasion Meng Feibai has ever done on all occasions. Meng Feibai bent and bowed in front of the tombstone for a full three minutes.
Everyone behind him could see the situation clearly, and no one dared to make jokes at this moment, not even a little bit not serious.
After visiting these veterans, Meng Feibai suddenly thought of a movie.
The above is a work about commemorating the theme of the War of Resistance Against Japan, and there is no hard and fast rule that an Anti-Japanese War film must be produced.
If it is to make a movie about the life of veterans of the Anti-Japanese War in their later years, then it can well avoid big productions and a long production cycle, and it can be released this year.
He thought of a micro movie he had seen in his previous life, “The Veteran”
This movie is only fifty-one minutes long, and it tells the life of a veteran named He Weiguo in his later years.
Because the microfilm is too short, the plot connection is a bit incoherent, but this does not prevent this from being a very good movie.
Meng Feibai only needs to polish up the plot connection of this movie, without adding water, and he can make up the duration of a movie.
Of course, it’s a movie for a political mission, and of course the actors in the entertainment circle want to show their faces.
But unfortunately, this film is different from the Jianguo Trilogy in that it does not have a grand layout and groups of historical figures.
There are only two characters in the movie, one is He Weiguo and the other is Old Wang.
Except for the occasional extras who showed up, there was only a little girl who played a little role.
This film has no room to share with actors in the entertainment industry, nor does it have room to cooperate with major entertainment giants.
For a small-budget movie, the investment cost is less than 1.5 million. Not to mention too clean and self-made, Meng Feibai can escape with this budget.
As for the Anti-Japanese War drama that was agreed upon, although Meng Feibai also wanted to shoot it, he still planned to shoot the gift film first.
The Anti-Japanese War theme can be filmed at any time. In this time and space, China has not produced a really good and real anti-Japanese war work for almost ten years.
Whether the audience can suddenly accept the bloody war of resistance still needs to be observed.
And this gift film is also a good test of the waters. Although it is not a direct anti-war film, it reflects the lives of veterans of the anti-Japanese war.
“How do you feel?” On the way back to the car, Zhang Yuxi asked, looking at the red-eyed Zhang Yuxi.
This girl loves to be pretty, so she put on a lot of make-up, but in Tengchong she cried so much that she put on all her make-up, like an opera singer.
“Very… shocking!” Zhang Yuxi rubbed her red eyes.
Meng Feibai sighed and said, “It doesn’t matter if you’re shocked or moved, if you feel it, remember it, and don’t forget it. What they fear most is… forgetting.”
“I don’t think I will ever forget it in my life!” ZhangYu Xi said.
Meng Feibai looked at her, waved his hand in front of her and said, “Don’t wear such heavy makeup from now on, the car is full of your foundation smell.”
Zhang Yuxi: “…”
ps: This plot is to test the waters. If it can be written, then the protagonist can shoot some works with the main theme. Of course, if there are too many historical figures like the Jianguo Trilogy, forget it. .
