Chapter 402: Putting on a movie

The images of the tragic war in different scenes are constantly flashing on the screen in the soundtrack of "Overture to the Dead", which is dizzying, but each one is memorable. Until the end of a battle, the music is soft, and only corpses are left in the shot, and in the smoke of gunpowder, a lonely figure of a soldier stands next to the red flag of the vanguard army. As the sun set, the wind swept the horns of the flag and slapped on the face that was tired, but still resolute.

As night fell, the soldiers' tombstones were clearly visible amid the crackling and burning sound of firelight in the distance. The oppression of the night brings the music to the end, when a deep male voice rings out outside the painting:

"Behind us is our home, and in front of us is our honor!"

As his words fell, a light of dawn shone down, and quickly passed through the cemetery, pulling towards the village in the distance.

Under the morning light, the colors on the screen swept away the haze and became fresh all of a sudden. The green grass, the red and yellow wildflowers, the clear river, the blue sky and white clouds, the golden sunshine, the heavy ears of wheat, the smiling faces of people with longing for hope, and the laughter of children playing and playing echoed in their ears from time to time.

But then the camera turned, the screams of bombs sounded in the air, and Yue's artillery, tanks, and planes kept appearing, and some scenes familiar to the people in the Nanjing Massacre some time ago kept flashing, and there was no music, only the sound of gunfire and his own wild laughter.

At this time, on the high post far from the cemetery, a vanguard trumpeter blew the assembly horn against the background of the sun obscured by the smoke of gunpowder.

The sound of the trumpet pierced through the smoke of gunpowder and went straight up to the sky, and the camera pulled up and looked down at the earth, and then drove away into the distance, teleporting to various places. At this time, the background music appears again, this time in the first half of "Herostheme", which is the music from a work on the next generation of new consoles Xbox360, mostly as the background music for heroes. As the music sounded, farmlands, factories, schools, and shops appeared with attentive faces.

A deep male voice resounded across the earth:

"The war has begun! The country, it needs you. ”

Immediately, Pirates of the Caribbean's background music "Heisapirate" sounds.

As if hearing this call, people put down their sickles, wrenches, rice bowls, books, and scales and rushed in one direction.

Slowly, the flow of people turned into a neat queue of heavily armed vanguard soldiers, and the hurried footsteps of the crowd also changed to the neat steps of the soldiers. Beside them, the tanks and heavy artillery of the vanguard army also drove by, accompanied by the music of "Sheismysin", which is the theme song of version 1.6 CS, and many top game teams in later generations have adopted it as the music for promotional videos. There is no singing at this time, only background music. This adaptation, which still smells of heavy metal, seems to herald the approach of the big war.

With the music **, more and more soldiers appear in the shot. When more than 10,000 people gathered, it was already dense and endless, but more neat queues of soldiers were still emerging. By this time, the music had stopped, and only the neat steps of the soldiers remained louder and louder. They were armed with steel guns, and behind the background of the mighty queue, the Jinshui Bridge and [***] appeared.

The tall [***] castle tower has been repaired and has not regained its previous decline.

The music starts again, this time with "1492 Conquest of Heaven". The first song in the later movie Columbus's biography, "Soldier Assault" also used this as an interlude.

As the music plays, a young figure walking the stairs of the ancient city wall appears in slow motion, followed by rows of generals. When the sun shines down, the eyes are full of golden-colored five-pointed stars. Together, they ascended the stairs to the tower, and in these slow motions, the deep male voices of the chorus in the background music kept harmonizing.

It wasn't until the young figure reached the middle of the tower, facing the procession below, that the music stopped, and everything seemed to stand still for a moment. Even the soldiers stopped, staring at the figure with eager eyes.

The young figure, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of divine light, and he didn't look very clear in a hazy way, but his movements were very clear, his hand was slowly raised, and he pointed obliquely at a 45-degree angle to the right front, shouting: "Forward!" ”

"Onward! Advance! Advance! The soldiers chanted together, and their steps continued.

A torrent of steel traveled farther and farther away, until the screen went black, and there was still silence in the screening room. After a long time, bursts of applause erupted.

"Great, it's just amazing!" Li Zizhong applauded and said excitedly to Shen Yuelian.

"The music is special!" Shen Yuelian had to admit that from a musical point of view, those music were just as perfect, but this intense form had never been heard before, and she could only express it with special.

She naturally didn't know that these were all another plagiarism by Meng Xiang.

These magnificent music are all familiar to later generations, and they are often heard in film and television works and games, and they can be hummed out after listening to them a lot. Meng Xiang was humming once, but Tang Mingyue heard it and recorded it completely. Subsequently, unconsciously, Tang Mingyue recorded three tunes and put them in front of Meng Xiang.

It's a pity that Meng Xiang can't understand those tadpole-like staves except for knowing a little simple notation. After Tang Mingyue played it on the piano herself, Meng Xiang was taken aback. He didn't expect Tang Mingyue to have such an ability, and he could memorize some tunes after listening to them once or twice.

"My mother can remember all kinds of songs once you listen to them." Tang Mingyue only said this, letting Meng Xiang know that people have genes. However, when he thought of Tang Yaoshi's fat image, he really couldn't get along with the romantic and suave young man he got from the intelligence.

It's hard to ask about people's private affairs, but Tang Mingyue also obtained Meng Xiang's authorization to record the tunes he hummed, but not to circulate them.

When the vanguard army planned to expand its publicity through film and television, Meng Xiang remembered these tunes, and selected a few magnificent and complete humming songs from them, which were recorded by Tang Mingyue and played. Meng Xiang revised the confirmations in his mind, and finally came out with these five tunes, and there were still some incompleteness.

Although his memory is getting better and better as he continues to upgrade, he can basically hum these tunes. But after all, Meng Xiang's memory is not so perverted. Xiaohua once said that through a certain function of the base, the original forgotten memories can be stimulated. But when Meng Xiang heard that there was a lot of danger, he stopped asking. If he accidentally becomes an idiot, he can't cry anymore.

Through the performance of dozens of Chinese music masters in the vanguard symphony orchestra formed in the war zone, the grandeur of these five pieces was once again displayed.

With some scenes from the training and some shots from previous materials, this video was made up through continuous editing.

"I've decided, I'm going to join the Vanguard!" Li Zizhong couldn't help himself after watching the movie.

"Where you go, I will go too!" Shen Yuelian hesitated for a moment, and finally said firmly.

"Okay, let's go together!" Li Zizhong was pleased.

The same words to join the vanguard have already been spoken in the mouths of a dozen people who have seen the film.

This is exactly the effect of Meng Xiang's hope.

Such a movie, don't watch it, there is classic music, but in the ears of many people at the time, these are similar to the feeling of playing cotton. This is clearly not as affordable as the subsistence allowance and pension of the vanguard army.

The target of this kind of movie is not them, most of the people who can go to the cinema to watch movies are people with a bit of assets and a bit of culture. The Vanguard Army's subsistence allowance and pension did not attract them much. Meng Xiang needs to rekindle the blood in the hearts of these sane bystanders. Win them over to the side of the vanguard. As for them coming, naturally they are not pushed to the battlefield to be cannon fodder, Meng Xiang needs their various talents.

As the territory of the Vanguard Army grows larger, more and more talents are needed. In the era when there were only more than 110 Huaxia Universities and the total number of college students from 1898 to 37, when the Beijing Normal University was established, there were only more than 110,000 people.

With the opening of the new semester, the number of new college students in the war zone has exceeded 30,000, and the total number of universities has not expanded, but the scale of the number of university students has been expanded, and the number of new students in Jixia School has exceeded 6,000, and the enrollment of other Peking University, Tsinghua University, Nankai University, etc. has also doubled. Although these people are not as many as the students of a university in later generations, and they are incomparable to the six or seven million a year in later generations, this is already a breakthrough. You must know that from 25 to 29 years, during this time, the number of students at Nankai University was only 300.

But this is the time when there are many masters. The fact that the theater political axe has made all tuition and miscellaneous fees free of charge for college students is a further step forward in the policy of the central political axe. At that time, the central government exempted college students from military service, went to school for free, and did not need money for lunch. As a result, the number of university students in the school increased from 42,000 in '36 to 79,000 in '44.

It can be said that the central political axe at that time still did a good job in this regard.

At this time, the fiat currency still depreciated sharply, and although the central political axe was repeatedly defeated, its authority was still the target chosen by many talented people. The literati who have not experienced the catastrophe of the depreciation of fiat currency are still particularly concerned about orthodoxy. It is far from the situation of changing jobs after good treatment in later generations.

Therefore, the talent in the hands of the vanguard army only occupies a part.

At this time, the Southwest Associated University had completed its mission, and all the professors and students were taken to Beiping by the plane of the Pioneer Army and returned to the old campus. Continuing to carry forward the compatible style of Southwest Associated University is the Jixia School Palace, the number of students in each branch has exceeded 10,000, among which there are many masters and famous masters. Coupled with the overseas students sent out by the Pioneer Army every year, I believe that more future masters will grow up.

However, it takes too long to train one's own talents, and there is a shortage of all kinds of talents in the theater. Even some people who disagree can use it to engage in certain aspects of academic research.

It is dangerous for only one voice to be present within a regime, and some people and ideas with different views are a useful complement. There are various laws and regulations that have been gradually improved, as long as they do not violate these laws and regulations, but the red line, Meng Xiang will not carry out a large-scale combing.

In this special era, the first thing to pursue is the number of talents. Meng Xiang already has tens of thousands of Jewish talents in his hands, but more often than not, he needs Chinese talents to absorb and digest these skills and knowledge. Therefore, the vanguard army is like a big funnel, absorbing all kinds of talents.

This can be regarded as the first color film in China was shot in order to attract talents, but fortunately, there was no censorship system in this era, and it was not stuck by the old Jiang Zhengaxe, so it was able to be broadcast in the national control area. Of course, blatant large-scale propaganda vanguard is not allowed, so not many people knew about this movie at first. With the screening, with the boo of the first color film, the number of people attracted more and more. By the time Lao Jiang and the others came to their senses, it was already too late, and it was impossible to ban them all.

Not only these regular theaters, but also more than 100 mobile film screening teams set up by the vanguard army have also gone out of the war zone and toured the national control area and other places. even went directly to the occupied area to show it. The devils have a limited number of troops, and can only control large cities and county seats, and sometimes there are only a few devils in some small counties, and they generally do not go out when it is time to collect grain and taxes. For those projection teams in the countryside, how to control them?

"Dog leftover, let's go, there's a big show to watch tonight." Zhang Fatdun shouted towards an old locust tree.

"The big play? What's the show? Li Gouyu asked, sticking out his head, with a few weeds on his head. He was so hungry that he climbed up the tree to see if the nests in the old locust tree were still out of stock. But he was disappointed and nothing. In addition to his father, who needs to go to work and eat an extra bowl of slightly moldy dry rice, his mother and other seven or eight people only drank a bowl of rice porridge with single-digit rice grains.

Just after the New Year, it is not yet the most difficult time, but his family is about to run out of food.

When he heard the big play, the first thing he thought of was not those stage, but every time the troupe came, the offerings made up by the nearby villages, and the food, drink and offerings made by the big and rich families in various villages, which made him greedy. In addition to some ordinary meals, sometimes there are pastries and meats.

The offerings to the gods were placed there, unattended, and a few years ago, his eldest brother took him to steal a piece or two, and the taste was amazing.

At this time, the eldest brother has been captured by the devil to build turret fortifications to serve labor, and he is almost twelve years old. As long as he was full, he could easily climb the tallest tree in the village, and there was nothing near the offering table to stop him.

"There's no stage, and there's no theater?" By the time Li Gouyu came to the barnyard in the village, there were already a lot of people gathered there. Although the weather is cold, it can't stop people's curiosity, I heard that there is a big show, and people from seven miles and eight villages have come to see the excitement. But when I arrived, there was no stage, just a large white cloth hanging between two trees.

Li Gouyu didn't care about the stage, he looked around, except for a few people fiddling around a strange-looking iron bump, there was no place to put offerings around.

"Don't they worship God?" He leaned over to see the men in action. After watching it for a long time, I couldn't understand it. But he noticed the white cloth.

"Maybe it's just in the back." He sneaked over while people weren't looking.

But there was only a big haystack in Zhang Fatdun's house behind it, and he looked around, but there was still nothing.

Just when he was disappointed, he suddenly heard an exclamation from the people in unison, and the original noise was gone. And the haystack, which was a little black just now, was suddenly illuminated by the light cast by the screen.

He turned to look, but was frightened by the figures on the screen, thought they were coming to arrest him, and hurriedly hid in the grass. But after a while, there was no movement, and he looked out, only to realize that it was only some shadow on the white cloth.

"Same as the real thing!" He was stunned.

On the other hand, those who rushed to knock on the strange were also stunned. They were also all watching movies for the first time. At the beginning, it also caused a bit of confusion. When the initial confusion was appeased, they also stared blankly at these Western scenes when they knew that they were just characters in the paintings.

The picture did not show that movie, it was not for ordinary people.

This time it was shown some clips from the Vanguard territory.

Pedestrians on the road, cars, tall buildings, shops on both sides, a dazzling array of goods in the shops.

Busy workers in the factory, farmers in the fields with the joy of harvest, children reading aloud in bright classrooms in schools. The colorful shots are strange.

And then there was the life of a soldier of the vanguard army.

Three meals a day. In the clean canteen, white rice and steamed buns are eaten at will, and large pieces of braised pork, fish, and chicken are placed on the table, and the vanguard soldiers of the brigade in neat costumes eat there together.

Looking at the roast chicken and braised pork, Li Gouyu was rubbing his stomach and drooling. The sound of people's saliva on the other side of the screen was also heard. After the devil came to collect grain, the people in the village said that they were not happy. No one can eat white rice at once, even Zhang Fatdun's family is no exception. Zhang Fat is fat because he is a person who grows meat when he drinks cold water, and he often drinks rice porridge at home.

"These Qiu Ba eat so well, fake, right?" Someone couldn't help but curse jealously.

No one paid attention to him, everyone was staring at the screen, and the soldiers of the vanguard army above were paying their salaries. The ocean of white flowers and the yellow pioneer copper round dazzle people's eyes.

"Dog, a recruit also pays so much money?" There is an explanation in the image, but when I saw a recruit who also sent 20 oceans, everyone was also red-eyed.

Fresh images continue to appear in the back, and they don't even need the surname of the story, but they are all brief shots of some documentary surnames in the Special Administrative Region. As the emergence of new things, the people are looking at strange things, and there is no need to say the big truth, as long as those facts are presented, some people will naturally believe it. There is no conscription in the contents. These are just the infiltration of ideas, and anyone who has watched these films knows how good the territory of the vanguard army is. It is also the first time that some people have heard of the idea of subsistence allowance and non-payment of food.

I heard people say that it is better to see it with your own eyes.

The movie was played on the big screen, which directly made people impressed.

It was cold at night, but people watched with interest. Even Li Gouyu forgot about his empty stomach for the time being. It wasn't until the end of the movie that he felt that his stomach was burning hard, and the thin old cotton clothes on his body could not resist the invasion of the cold wind, so he leaned against the haystack and shrunk his body. The warmth in the haystack made him want to sleep.

"Hey, kids, wake up." In a daze, he saw someone wake him up, and that man was there to fiddle with one of the machines.

"It's cold here, it's outside the village, let's go home!" The man smiled. At this time, wolves and other animals are often seen outside the village. Although Li Gou spent the night a few times outside, it was all in a relatively safe place. Wolves in winter are particularly ferocious.

He nodded in agreement, and as soon as he climbed out, the cold wind couldn't help but make him shiver, and his stomach growled a few times.

"Eat a piece of candy!" The man smiled and handed him two pieces of candy.

"Sugar?" The piece of candy wrapped in the colorful green candy paper was in Li Gou's dirty little hand, and he took a long time to peel off a piece and put it in his mouth hesitantly.

"It's so sweet!" The first time he ate a piece of candy, Li Gouyu felt a stream of sweet nectar flowing all the way to his stomach.

"That's all true?" He thought of what he had just seen, and couldn't help but point to the screen that was being put away, and asked the man.

"Of course it's all true!" Wu Bingsheng laughed. It's a documentary, and there's not much moisture.

"As a soldier of the vanguard army, can you eat rice every day, and you can eat enough?" He asked again.

"Of course, not only can you eat enough, but you can also eat meat regularly!" Wu Bingsheng laughed.

These projection teams also have the task of publicity. However, these are true, and the food of the Vanguard soldiers is very good. There is a clone oversight, and no one is doing anything about the food.

Until the man cleaned up the screen and left, Li Gouyu was still reminiscing about the scene in the film and the sweetness of the piece of sugar.

"I'm going to be a pioneer too!" He couldn't help but secretly decide in his heart.

The same scene is playing out in various regions. These projection teams only leave an impression on the people, and do not make a big publicity, which will cause a lot of trouble.

The focus of their propaganda is on the theater of operations. The films screened are also varied. Documentaries and science and education films are the majority. In this era, many people can't read a single word, and intuitive radio and movies have become an important means to make up for the lack of manpower.
