The movie “Changjin Lake” released its first trailer and new poster today. As the backbone of the “China Victory Trilogy”, “Changjin Lake” closely followed “Chinese Doctor” in its appearance and aroused heated discussions. The reporter was informed that the film “Changjin Lake” took the Battle of Changjin Lake in the Second Battle of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea as the background, and restored this epic battle in a panoramic view. Yu Dong, the producer and chief producer of the film “Changjin Lake”, and chairman of Bona Pictures Group, said: The significance of making this film can be described as “great responsibility and glorious mission”, because there are many descriptions of this war in the world. Mainly from a Western perspective, Chinese filmmakers have the responsibility and obligation to speak out and let the world know the truth of this battle.
Seventh company warriors ready to go, Wu Jingyi and Qianxi detonate the backbone of “China Victory”
As the “China Victory Trilogy” series created by Bona Pictures, the first “Chinese Doctor” is being screened nationwide, followed by the backbone of “Changjin Lake”, with the first trailer and new poster released. For this combination boxing, the audience said: “”Chinese Doctor” is a great victory for the white-clothed fighters, “Changjin Lake” is a great victory for the volunteer soldiers. This is the Chinese victory we want.”
The new poster shows the soldiers gathering in the country and heading to the Korean battlefield by train. In the picture, the seven-line warrior headed by Wu Qianli, played by Wu Jing, stands solemnly in the carriage. Although their expressions and actions are different, the perseverance in their eyes reveals the cohesion of one mind. Reminiscent that the direction of the train is the purgatory battlefield of Changjin Lake, Wu Jing’s standard military salute shows the heroic spirit of our army!
In the trailer, Wu Qianli and Wu Wanli played by Wu Jing and Yi Yang Qianxi, the rival dramas of the brothers, became the focus of the audience’s attention. Facing his younger brother who was going to join him in the army, his brother said, “The boss said, we both fought all the battles that should be fought, and you are not allowed to fight”, showing his care and love. But immediately in the trailer, younger brother Wu Wanli followed his brother to the battlefield, making people curious: What happened in this sudden plot turn? Wu Jing once said: This younger brother is quite “worry”, and the younger brother’s unstandard bombing posture at the end of the film seems to confirm his brother’s “worries”. How will the story of the brothers develop? It is one of the biggest suspense of this trailer.
In addition to these brothers, volunteer soldiers played by Duan Yihong, Zhu Yawen, Li Chen, Han Dongjun, and Hu Jun appeared one after another. The film takes the actions of a hero company “Seventh Interstitial Company” and its brothers as the main line, telling the fighting spirit and touching stories of ordinary volunteer soldiers throughout the campaign. As a special star, Duan Yihong has a lot of feelings about the friendship in the movie: “They are all brothers who have died on the battlefield, and we, as actors, dare not slacken for a moment, hoping to convey the humanity and awe-inspiring spirit that the revolutionary martyrs burst out in the battle!”
Tell the story of China to the world
This trailer uses an epic technique to show the whole picture of the Battle of Changjin Lake in a panoramic view: from the U.S. army landing in Incheon, flagrantly crossing the 38th parallel to invade the border between China and North Korea, to volunteer troops crossing the Yalu River to fight abroad, to resist the U.S. and aid Korea to defend the country; From the outbreak of the Battle of Changjin Lake, the soldiers of our Volunteers inflicted heavy damage to the enemy, to the defeat of the U.S. Army and its withdrawal from Xingnan Port… During this process, generals from both sides of the war took turns appearing, and the battle between the two armies began to emerge. The strength of the U.S. military’s equipment and the high morale of our volunteers have all been reflected.
For the significance of the film “Changjin Lake”, the producer and chief producer of the film, Yu Dong, chairman of Bona Film Group, summed it up in eight words: “Great responsibility, glorious mission!” In his opinion , The description of this war in the world is mostly from a Western perspective, and Chinese filmmakers have the responsibility and obligation to speak out. With this mission, Bona Pictures assembled a strong production team to create this war movie. In this regard, Yu Dong said: “We Chinese filmmakers must have the desire and determination to tell the Chinese story to the world. In artistic creation, we must both be rigorous and professional, but also respect the emotional appeals of the audience; we must not only clarify the historical truth, but also To penetrate the hearts of the people and impress the audience. The scale of production and the difficulty of production of “Changjin Lake” is the veritable number one since the establishment of Bona Pictures, and it will also set many in the history of Chinese war movies. Record! We want to use the film as a medium to declare to the world: What is the truth of this battle that can be included in one of the most tragic confrontations in the world‘s military history!”
