Chapter 0478: Shooting Completed

After the birthday, the Lantern Festival the next day, Wang Tao and the three of them drove home, and they were still stuck in traffic on such a few hundred kilometers.

Fortunately, I returned home in the afternoon.

After the Lantern Festival, Wang Tao took the high-speed rail to Beijing the next day and signed relevant agreements with several departments. He also received a letter of introduction and certification.

With these two documents covering several departments, he can access many places that ordinary people have no right to enter, and can also consult many documents that others cannot access.

After staying in the capital for a week, Wang Tao consulted many materials and historical documents and gained a deeper understanding of this period of history.

After doing this, he immediately began to form his own team of directors. The process went very smoothly. Not to mention that he had a certification letter. Even if he didn’t, the relevant department’s documents were issued. As he thought, no one would. Not cooperate.

After submitting his script, he quickly got a reply. Several LDs gave comments and expressed satisfaction.

The script was finalized, and the crew began to list the actors that appeared in it, then called in the list of actors and began to select actors.

In the selection of actors this time, in addition to the crew, Wang Tao also invited relatives of some of the main characters and related staff to assist in the casting.

Now Wang Tao has many photos of people from that period, so it’s much easier to choose the role.

Individual actors were selected, and some were not even famous, but all parties expressed satisfaction.

After confirming the actors, the staff began to call the relevant actors’ companies and learned that it was the crew of Jianjun Daye. Of course, these companies would not refuse, and all of them were guaranteed to be on call.

Ten days of effort, from the script to the actors have been determined.

On March 1, more than a dozen leading actors came to the capital.

“Presumably everyone knows what kind of movie we are going to shoot. In the next few days, I will be a student with you for a few days and we will come to class. I always think that if you want to build a good character, you must first have an understanding of the character. The characters you are going to play must be familiar to you. You should have done your homework before you come. I have invited experts and teachers to give you lessons to deepen your understanding of these characters.”

“The reason why we let everyone come to these classes together is because the roles you played were comrades-in-arms in that era, brothers who could entrust life and death, and they should understand each other. Know their identity, background, and where they are. The age and the environment faced at that time are also conducive to everyone’s understanding of the role.”

“I hope everyone here will show their spirits when they were in school, and give all their mobile phones to your agent or assistant. Don’t whisper to each other during class and listen carefully.”

Wang Tao looked at more than a dozen actors, and after finishing his thoughts, he sat down.

In the next few days, as Wang Tao said, they are really in class. There are history professors, staff from the historical archives, military LDs, and family descendants of some of the characters.

After giving lectures to these main actors, Wang Tao took them around the country to go to the former residences and hometowns of these characters, to the memorials of what happened that year, to read some materials at the time, and to listen to the explanations of the explainers.

Many actors also let Wang Tao learn according to some of their habits back then, such as learning to smoke, such as smoking a pipe.

Several people who were not high-ranking at that time also had Wang Tao sent to the army to conduct training in accordance with the training methods of the year.

All of them have studied the works of Marx and Lenin, studied some songs of that year, and read some articles of that year.

After the clothes were made at that time, Wang Tao asked them to change their clothes.



It took a month to see that Liu Ye could smoke a cigarette without frowning. The actor who played Mr. Zhu was very proficient in smoking a pipe. Wang Tao knew that the movie was ready for filming.

The military really said to do it. According to the weapon models of the year, re-made and old weapons, a batch of old military uniforms in the style of the year.

Even cars and all kinds of daily necessities are all in place. More importantly, the army sent more than 1,000 soldiers to assist in the shooting.

After more than a month of shooting, the time came to mid-May, and the filming of the film was finally completed.

Many actors felt that Wang Tao made a big fuss at first, but when they saw that Wang Tao didn’t go to the Oscars to accept the award, they didn’t participate in various international film festivals, and they all put away their thoughts.

At the beginning of June, Wang Tao gave the cut film to the relevant LD.

After everyone sat together and watched the movie, Wang Tao was greeted with applause.

“This is the main theme movie I have seen in recent years. It can be seen that you have put your hard work in this movie.” Chief Yang said to Wang Tao with satisfaction.

“I heard that Director Wang failed to receive some of the awards for the filming of this movie. Your professionalism is worth learning. You have been working hard during this time.” Minister Liu also said with Wang Tao’s hand.

In fact, when he learned that Wang Tao won the Oscar for Best Screenplay by virtue of his tuner, Minister Liu specifically called Wang Tao to ask him to accept the award, but Wang Tao refused.

In addition to the Oscar for the best screenwriter during this period, there are also the Cannes Film Festival for the best director, the best film, and several other film festival awards.

Liu Hua also received an Oscar nomination for best actor, Cannes Film Festival nominated for best actor, of course, did not win, but for Liu Hua, it is also very happy.

“These are what I should do. I hope this movie can be recognized by the audience.” Wang Tao said with a smile.

“Don’t worry, just like the leader said, the eyes of the masses are sharp.” Another LD said with a smile.


Wang Tao is still very happy to get the approval of LD, after all, they don’t have to lie to themselves.

After returning home, Wang Tao didn’t know that the movie was sent to the big LD. Several LDs watched the movie together and all agreed with the movie.

In the past three or four months, Wang Tao has hardly appeared in front of the public, but news of him has spread from time to time.

Especially during this period, Wang Tao’s influence in the film industry has soared when he won the best director and best film at the Cannes Film Festival.

There is even a feeling of being a god, don’t forget that there is also the award for Best Screenplay by Okas, which many people dream of.

The script of the tuner was even bought by a company in the United States to be adapted into their local movie.
