What's the evaluation of 800

I think not only the 800 works are worthy of praise, but also the director Guan Hu is worthy of respect!

There are a lot of negative comments on this play on the Internet, but, with all due respect, many people simply don't understand the essence of this play, let alone the director's good intentions.

Mr. Guan Hu once admitted that the originality of the 800-year-old film originated from 13 years ago. As we all know, more than ten years ago was an era when exotic creatures prevailed. At that time, the Internet in China was full of the saying that "the Kuomintang was the main force in the war of resistance". Many people complain why no one is filming the national army, and call on film and television works to face up to and praise the Kuomintang's anti-Japanese achievements.

As a simple patriot, I can imagine Mr. Guan Hu's depression and indignation when he saw those articles that reversed black and white with the spring and autumn brushwork, which also planted a seed in his heart. Time flies, although more than ten years have passed, he still stubbornly chose to shoot this drama to arouse people's thinking.

As a senior director, he knows that money is the master and capital is the real father. In order to get the funds needed for shooting, he had to compromise, hide what he wanted to say under the picture and plot, and then hint wildly, waiting for the audience to dig.

1, he specially named the film "800".

First of all, he deliberately adopted the capital font of "Hundred". On the surface, it is an unconventional style of writing, but in fact it is conveying the message of "attention, I have something to say".

Furthermore, according to historical records, only more than 400 defenders entered the fourth-line warehouse. In order to gain momentum, they claimed to have 800 defenders. Taking this name can not only fool the management, but also properly imply that "one hundred words are true and eight words are false", implying that half of the audience's movies are mixed with private goods, all of which are fake news. What he really wants to express is hidden in the other half of the story, so be sure to enjoy it!

He deliberately used some tricks to let the audience explore the plot before the movie story happened.

The film chooses the story that happened at the end of the Battle of Songhu, 1937, 10, and June 26th to 30th in the Temple Lane warehouse, but deliberately does not mention the feelings, so as to stimulate the audience's curiosity and let them explore the truth behind it. As we all know, the Battle of Songhu was launched by Chiang Kai-shek with the intention of destroying the Japanese troops stationed in Shanghai at that time with absolute superiority.

Then the question is, why are there Japanese troops stationed in China Magic?

Through our own investigation, we learned that it was because five years ago, after the Songhu incident, with the so-called "justice" mediation of the international community at that time, Shanghai was declared a "demilitarized zone" and China was not allowed to station troops in Shanghai and its surrounding areas. But! But! But! Japan can station troops in the Japanese concession or even outside the Japanese concession!

On the surface, the director is praising the Kuomintang's heroic anti-Japanese, but secretly he is digging up the Kuomintang's black material and satirizing its self-satisfied operation. Hidden inside the crew, you can also play a two-line operation, and your skills are amazing. The directors are just a batch of six.

He subtly hinted at the Kuomintang's action of pulling young men.

The film does not introduce the process of military personnel joining the army, but focuses on several people who mistakenly broke into four rows of warehouses. They are confused and don't know what they are fighting for. They were timid and just wanted to be deserters at first. They have no military literacy, so they can only bear the pain to kill the enemy under the pressure of officers. With the development of the movie plot, they fled from despair and began to awaken and fight, defending the dignity of the motherland with their will and life.

On the surface, this is an affirmation and praise of the educational ability of the Kuomintang. As we all know, the highest artistic form is realism+cross-dressing. It was the director who adopted this artistic technique and made a profound description and criticism from the side of the Kuomintang army.

These people's ideological activities are exactly the same as those who were forced to join the army in history. When they arrived, they did not educate them why they were fighting, nor did they conduct military training. On the contrary, people's salaries were deducted, and they were punished at will, which led to confusion among soldiers. They just want to flee their hometown and rely on officers with guns to force them to go to war. Although they are equipped with weapons given by Hitler, their fighting capacity is still very low. In the Battle of Songhu, the national army was 800,000 against the Japanese army was 200,000. As a result of the battle, we suffered 300 thousand casualties and the enemy suffered 40 thousand casualties. Finally, Shanghai fell and Nanjing was opened.

Compared with the Eighth Route Army in history, people actively joined the army and fought actively. The Huaihai Campaign consumed 800,000 elites with 600,000 troops, which really made people feel speechless.

He deliberately portrayed the anti-Japanese scene of Qi Xin, a national army officer.

On the one hand, he used a lot of shots for wounded soldiers, soldiers with stains on their faces, soldiers with firm eyes, soldiers who fought bloody battles and soldiers who were not afraid of sacrifice.

On the other hand, outside the camera are those well-dressed military elites and senior officials.

Looking at it separately, we will feel that all the senior officials of the national army are strategizing and winning thousands of miles, and all the soldiers of the national army are fighting bravely to kill the enemy without any sense of disobedience.

However, he chose to put them in a play for the audience to taste.

What's more, Sun, the first mate who let 800 soldiers stick to the warehouse, chose to escape, which perfectly inherited the fine tradition of "fighting bloody battles below to be cannon fodder, and escaping above to enjoy wealth".

This not only eulogizes the patriotism and sacrifice of the soldiers at the grass-roots level of the national army with lines, but also criticizes the corruption and incompetence of the officers of the national army with silent lenses, forming a sharp contrast, and slaps those who wash the land for the Kuomintang rulers who betray the interests of the soldiers and the state with the blood of the soldiers at the grass-roots level.
