Assembly number introduction! ?

War is like a feast of death. Once you set foot on the battlefield, you should be ready to give your precious life at any time. However, for Gu Dizi, there is something more precious than life, that is, the lofty honor belonging to the 47 brothers of Jiu Lian. He has been looking for his dead comrades all his life, and he will return the honor to these young heroes no matter what.

1948 During the Huaihai Campaign, the fighting between the China People's Liberation Army and the Kuomintang troops was unprecedented. Gu, the ninth company commander, accepted the task of blocking the war. He agreed that the person in charge of the company used the assembly number as an order to retreat. The assembly number is not blown, and the company must stick to it until the last moment. In an abandoned old kiln, 47 soldiers fought bravely. After all, they are outnumbered. Gu Dizi watched his comrades die one by one, but there was nothing he could do. Jiao Dapeng, the platoon leader, is Gu Dizi's right-hand man. Before he died, he said that he heard the assembly signal ring and told Xiaomi and the remaining brothers to retreat. Some of the soldiers agreed, some opposed, and everyone had different opinions. At this point, Gu Dizi found that the nearby troops had retreated. He suspected that he had ignored the bugle and killed his comrades. Deeply shocked and guilty, he rushed out of the kiln with explosives and went to the enemy trench alone. The rest of the soldiers were finally killed.

Gu was captured by the People's Liberation Army after being injured. In the rear hospital, he learned that his former army had been cancelled. Not only is it difficult for him to prove his true identity, but even the 46 brothers who died in the war will be regarded as missing persons ... Gu managed to join the artillery unit of the People's Liberation Army and follow the pace of the team to move north and south. The only motivation for his survival is to find the honor he deserves for his dead comrades. Even if time flies, even if history has been gradually forgotten, that unforgettable brotherhood has not diminished. In Gu's mind, the images of his brothers are always vivid: Wang Jincun, Jiao Dapeng, Jiang Maocai and Lv Kuangou. ...

Poor bones are by the river and still live in the boudoir. As persistent as Gu, Sun Guiqin, the instructor's wife, is also looking for him. It was not until she met Gu that she believed that her husband had died in another country. Two people who suffered injustice have the same sadness and belief, and they embarked on a journey of verification together. Gu Dizi introduced Sun Guiqin to his good friend Erdou Zhao in the artillery unit and witnessed their marriage.

When they finally returned to the old kiln where a bloody battle took place, they found that the battlefield site had been unrecognizable because of coal mining. In addition to Gu Dizi, no one knows or even believes that there are dozens of heroic soldiers lying under this kiln. Gu Dizi is frantically digging a mountain of coal mines, and he will make the truth known to the world anyway.

Finally, after Gu's crazy search, he finally found his 46 brothers. Gu and his 46 comrades-in-arms were awarded the honorary title of combat hero.

Production origin

Xiaogang Feng, the director of this film, has always been good at showing the lives of small people. This time, Assembly focuses on the little people in modern wars and tells us an immortal legend of ordinary people in wars. Assembly is based on Yang Jinyuan's novel Litigation. At first, he read a news report that a man kept searching for the old army and spent a long time looking for evidence for his dead comrades to restore his honor. After reading it, he was deeply moved, which became the original intention of his novel "Lawsuit".

"This story was recommended to me by Zhang Guoli two years ago." Director Xiaogang Feng said: "The story of the original novel is also very simple. A company commander named Gu was ordered to lead his soldiers to fight a sniper for four hours. In the end, only the company commander survived, but after the war, the army did not list the sacrificed comrades as martyrs, so the surviving company commander struggled to find the bodies of those sacrificed comrades and rehabilitate them. I was really moved by the story and the role. I feel particularly fortunate that Wang Zhongjun, the boss of Huayi, was also very moved and was moved by this story. "

Investor Wang still remembers the scene when Xiaogang Feng handed him the original novel: "The original novel was only three pages, but at that time the director thought he could make a very good film. He told me his imagination of the story, and my feeling was that it was definitely a good movie. This play is the most detailed one I have ever read. Looking back now, some plots are still very touching. For this reason, "Assembly" is the most important drama of Huayi this year. "

Producer Chen still remembers the planning stage of Assembly. "Director Xiaogang Feng is very interested in this theme. When I said that the theme could be completed, he immediately called the famous screenwriter Liu Heng and asked him if he could write a script. On the one hand, it shows that Xiaogang is a man who can touch the sword, and it also means that he has a strong impulse to tell this touching story. In my opinion, this is an important factor in making excellent works. "

As a well-known writer, Liu Heng's film and TV works, such as Ju Dou, Qiu Ju's Story and Pretty Mom, are widely known, and won several best screenplay awards, including Flying Award. It was very simple and smooth for Liu Heng to take over the scriptwriting of Assembly. He recalled: "At that time, I was having dinner with a friend, and I received a phone call from the director Xiaogang Feng, saying that there was such a story. I talked on the phone for half an hour, and the director's enthusiasm and the touching part of the story attracted me very much, which made me very creative. Later, I decided to finish the screenplay. "

Director Xiaogang Feng and producer Huayi Brothers hope to find a professional team to participate in the production of this film. After seeing Tai Chi Flag, Director Feng hopes to find a special effects production team for this film to join Assembly, which paves the way for cooperation with MK Film in South Korea. South Korean executive producer Li Zhiyun of Assembly is from MK Pictures. He is a key figure in promoting the cooperation between China and South Korea in this film. In May 2006, Li Yunzhi met with the heads of Xiaogang Feng and Huayi in Beijing, and reached the cooperation intention at that time. Talking about the reasons that attracted MK Pictures to China to shoot this drama, Li Zhiyun said: "The first reason is director Xiaogang Feng. He is a great director in Asia. We have known him for a long time. Then the script. Huayi Brothers sent me the script. We were all very moved after watching it, so we are all looking forward to participating in the play. I hope to work with Huayi Brothers and Director Feng to make an excellent film. "

Since then, Huayi Brothers and director Xiaogang Feng have successively finalized other major behind-the-scenes creations. Wang, one of the best sound engineers in China, is the sound engineer of "Compilation", and he works with top Korean sound engineers. Liu Miaomiao, a senior editor of China, cooperated with director Xiaogang Feng again after the banquet. He has nearly 20 years of working experience, which is one of the powerful guarantees for the final effect of the film. Wang Liguang, the music director, had previously collaborated with director Xiaogang Feng in world without thieves, and the music he created in world without thieves was familiar and loved by the audience. At the same time, the preparations for the crew have quietly started. In order to truly restore the effect of the war, the crew carefully planned from the selection of location, the preparation of special effects of fireworks blasting to a suit and a prop. To this end, the staff also carried out a lot of historical research work to make it conform to the historical truth without leaving the audience's appreciation bottom line.

The powerful production team has been assembled and the intense shooting work is about to begin. Everything needs blowing. Wang Zhonglei, the chief producer of Assembly, is delighted to say that this film has "assembled" a group of excellent and creative filmmakers, and their joint efforts will surely make generate shine with creative sparks. With such a solid script, such an experienced team and tens of millions of dollars of production funds as a guarantee, Assembly has become an excellent war film.
