In the movie "The Seahawk", Liu Jiang swore at Americans. What is the prototype ending of the story?

In the 1950s, almost all films made by Bayi Film Studio were black and white. In order to give a gift to 1959 for the 10th National Day, they began to shoot the navy movie "Seahawk". Unexpectedly, after shooting half, the superior decided to change the film to color, and the first color feature film of Bayi Factory was born.

But many semi-finished shots can't be wasted, so we can see that there are still some black and white shots in the movie "Seahawk".

It doesn't matter. The author also found a depressing thing. The current movie "Seahawk" is only 85 minutes long, and some details have been deleted, especially the two scenes of Wang Xingang and Wang taking a drive and snuggling up on the rocks, which makes the film less colorful.

This article tells the story of 1959 movie "The Seahawk".

First, the shooting background and prototype of "Seahawk"

On August 23, 1958, the Golden Gate artillery battle that shocked the world started, and all eyes were gathered on this dumbbell-shaped island. As everyone knows, on the second day of the artillery battle, an equally wonderful naval battle broke out on the sea not far from Kinmen Island.

On August 24th, 1 month ago, six torpedo boats of the Chinese People's Navy, which were secretly transferred from Shanghai, suddenly appeared in the sea of Kinmen. They rushed to two enemy large tank landing ships hiding out of the range of shore guns at high speed. At a distance of 500 meters, the 1 1 torpedoes of six torpedo boats were launched almost at the same time, eventually sinking a 4000-ton tank landing ship and hitting each other hard.

Among the six speedboats that triumphed, the crew of 175 was forced to abandon the ship due to the damage of the middle gun, and the crew of 13 fell into the sea, and five of them drifted in the sea for three days and were finally rescued.

This example was spread to Bayi Film Studio. Director Yan Jizhou thought that this campaign could be made into a movie, and his proposal was supported by Bayi Factory. "Seahawk" is based on the Golden Gate artillery battle, the story is based on the 824 naval battle, and the first color feature film "Seahawk" of Bayi Factory is shot with the prototype of 175 boat.

Second, the roles and actors of the Seahawk.

On the basis of the prototype of the story, Haiying has been greatly adapted, with 175 changed to 909 command boat and 13 crew changed to 9 people.

In order to reflect the unity between the army and the people, the story of fishermen helping speedboats ambush was added to "Seahawk", but it was not completely fictional. At that time, the navy's speedboat was indeed hidden next to the fishing boat, covered with camouflage. When Lian Haijun, the deputy commander, came to inspect, he did not find his torpedo boat unit, and the other plane failed several reconnaissance, reaching the suddenness of the battle.

However, actually speaking, the militia company commander played by Wang is indeed fictional, and this militia company commander is also the wife of Wang Xingang, the squadron leader of the torpedo boat in the film.

Wang Xingang and Wang had excellent cooperation in 1963' s film "Wildfire and Fighting the Ancient City", so there was a saying that "men look at Wang Xingang and women look at Wang".

In fact, the two of them have already had a tacit understanding in "The Seahawk". In the film, there is a scene in which Wang Xingang drives Wang back to the base in a jeep, and the two of them are whispering in an open jeep, which is the coolest scene of that era. Unfortunately, in later versions, this lens was actually gone.

In addition, in the ghost island where the torpedo boat ambushed, there was also a scene of them sitting on the reef with tenderness, which can't be seen now. What a pity.

Yoshida played the old man in the film again at the age of 33. Wang Xingang is six years younger than him, and Wang is eight years younger than him, but he really acts like two generations. Yoshida plays the role of Wu Laohan in many scenes, but unfortunately there is no scene to judge the direction of the speedboat.

Zhang Yongshou plays Li Xiong, the boatswain, in this film. This character is a happy character, but he always feels that his jokes are a bit cold and his humorous way is a bit dull. Later, Zhang Yongshou solved the mystery. He said that he was originally a person without a sense of humor, but the role needed a sense of humor. He was going to chase a duck on a shelf, gritting his teeth, but left a few lines, such as "I said you were smart before, but now you are confused." In addition, the scene where he told the sailors a tornado story is gone in the current version.

Lipper is the head of the navy. Lipper plays with this head hand in hand. However, he was also depressed. Other colleagues went to the location, because he was the chief officer, and his scene was either in the war room or in the office. As a result, he took a scene reflecting the navy, but he didn't even leave the gate of Bayi Factory and didn't see the sea for a day.

It is worth mentioning that although there was only one scene, the operator played by Li Xiaoqing left a deep impression on everyone. Her voice is so beautiful: "Welcome to the sea, welcome to the sea, I am Mount Tai, I am Mount Tai, where are you, where are you?"

The focus of the film is that 175 sailors swim back to the mainland, so there are not many naval battles, few scenes depicting opposing warships and few scenes of natural villains. Teacher Liu Jiang, on the other hand, left his mark on the film in another way, that is, swearing.

Generally speaking, no matter the positive characters or villains in movies, they will avoid using too many swearing lines. When the scene needs it, most of them will throw out a national curse: "TMD".

Teacher Liu Jiang, on the other hand, is full of dirty words in "The Seahawk". Except for the first national curse, which was about the sudden appearance of torpedo boats, all the other vicious curse words were about Americans.

They are "son of a bitch Yankee", "son of a bitch" and "son of a bitch", which sounds really "insulting" and doesn't match his straight navy uniform and slightly elegant manners, but it also reflects his mood and anger. After all, he is cursing foreigners, so these swearing words are actually intact and have not been deleted.

Interestingly, Liu Jiang also startled the director when filming. The captain of the enemy ship she played was pushed into the sea by our soldiers, and the sound of swallowing seawater was clearly audible.

When the soldiers pulled the captain of the enemy ship to the shore, the captain of the enemy ship was already dead. The soldier kicked and muttered, "Dead". Then director Yan Jizhou shouted' Stop!'

All the other actors walked away, and Liu Jiang was still lying flat on the beach. Yan Jizhou panicked. "Really drowned?" ! "He ran to the past, and Liu Jiang sat up." Did this pass? I thought I had to shoot. "

Third, Bayi Factory kills two birds with one stone

We watched the speedboat in the movie, but everyone who has sat on it knows that people who don't sit often get seasick when they go out to sea. Moreover, directors, actors and photographers are still fighting in torpedo boats, and there is no comfort at all, so seasickness and vomiting have become commonplace.

However, the film still needs to be made. In addition to some necessary sea shots, Yan Jizhou thought of many indigenous methods.

For example, when Wang Xingang was driving a speedboat, the waves kept hitting his face. It was actually taken on the shore. Yan Jizhou took a basin of water and splashed it on Wang Xingang's face with a spoon, which created the effect of waves slapping his face.

Ghost island reconnaissance, soldiers abandoned the ship and swam back to the mainland, which is not suitable for location shooting, mainly for safety reasons. After all, the sea is heartless, so Yan Jizhou thought of a good way to kill two birds with one stone for Bayi Factory.

Dig a big pit in Bayi factory and turn it into a swimming pool of the whole factory after filming.

After the swimming pool was dug, it was filled with water, and then the props were made into a boat exactly like a torpedo boat, so most of the shots that were inconvenient to take in the sea were taken here.

After all, it's a swimming pool. At that time, the wave-making technology was still very poor, so the lens actually swung like a torpedo boat.

Yan Jizhou also has a brilliant idea. A hole was dug in the corner of the swimming pool and thick glass was installed. The camera can shoot underwater scenes through the glass.

Don't tell me, I was really surprised when I watched Wang's diving scene. We can make movies underwater.

Because it was already very cold when filming, there were still many scenes to be filmed at night, so the actors had a hard time. After filming a scene, they immediately took off all their clothes and leaned against the prepared brazier to keep warm, drank some wine and ate some beef jerky, and prepared for the next scene to continue.

However, compared with the fate of 175 sailors in the prototype of the "Seahawk" story, it is not too hard.

Fourth, the fate of the Seahawk prototype

In the movie, except the sacrificed chief engineer Tamia Liu, Wang Xingang led other soldiers to return to the mainland successfully, but in fact, only five soldiers of 175 13 returned.

Among the eight people who didn't come back, three crew members defected after being captured. After falling into the water, captain Xu Fengming and engineer Huang Zhongyi swam together. When the enemy gunboat came, Xu Fengming pushed Huang Zhongyi away, so he was caught in the propeller and died.

It is worth mentioning that before the war, Xu Fengming got the approval to go back to his hometown in Northeast China to visit relatives. As a result, others are still on the road, and the telegram urging him to return to the army to participate in the war has been sent home. The first thing he saw when he got home was a telegram handed to him by his wife. Xu Fengming met his parents, wife and children. He didn't stay at home for one more minute. He immediately set foot on the journey back to the army and never went back.

Liu Tao, the chief engineer who died in the movie, has a prototype, that is, You Zhimin, the deputy torpedo operator on board. He became seriously ill while swimming back to the mainland. In order not to drag down his comrades-in-arms, he took the initiative to untie his life jacket and sank into the sea. At the last moment, his last words to his comrades were: The secret keeper has my 240 yuan money, 40 yuan paid the tour fare, and 200 yuan mailed it to my mother, asking her not to be sad.

The other three soldiers, Chen Jialin, Qiu and Zhu, disappeared into the sea forever.

Conclusion: Sea breeze has blown across the Taiwan Strait for more than 60 years. The people's navy, which was so poor that it could only be a torpedo speedboat, is different now, and the fallen soldiers can rest in peace.
