When was the Flying Tigers filmed?

1956, Liu Zhixia's original work of the same name was put on the screen for the first time in the film Flying Tigers shot by Shanghai Film Studio, and Liu Zhixia himself served as the screenwriter of the film. The film is directed by Zhao Ming and starring Cao and Qin Yi. In the film, the director's handling is concise and vivid, the wit and humor of detail design are organically combined with the tension of the plot, and the creation of photography and art also has its own characteristics, which better shows the environment and people.

From 65438 to 0957, this film was listed as one of the top ten most popular films of the year in the domestic film selection jointly organized by Beijing People's Broadcasting Station and Beijing Daily.

1985, Shanghai Film Studio filmed the TV series Flying Tigers 12 episodes. The TV series itself did not leave a deep impression on people, but the theme song in it became a masterpiece.

The Flying Tigers directed by Xie Hongzhi from 65438 to 0995 is also a member of the Flying Tigers family. The film gathered many famous actors, including Wei Liu, Li, ZhangFeng yi, Wang and Pan Changjiang. The film focuses on Lao Hong and Wang Qiang's participation in the guerrillas' fight against the Japanese puppet troops, and ends with their final sacrifice in bombing the city, which condenses the story of the Flying Tigers. However, the film did not achieve good results after its release, but was called a "gangster film" reflecting the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period.

Director Wang Xinmin made the Flying Tigers more "martial arts".

Time: June 2005 10

The story of Flying Tigers has been put on the screen many times and has long been a household name. A few days ago, the story was once again remake into 35 episodes of TV series, which was broadcast on many TV stations and achieved the first ratings. The play was directed by Wang Xinmin, a famous director who directed Chivalrous Man, Liancheng Tactics and Li San of Swallow.

Our reporter interviewed Wang Xinmin by telephone yesterday, and he answered all the questions that readers care about.

Let the war film present the martial arts color.

"Flying Tigers" is a blockbuster of the same name with the theme of 1956, which is a TV series "Flying Tigers" in the 1990s. So, can the remake be innovative? Can you surpass the classic works in the audience's mind? For these questions, director Wang Xinmin seems quite confident. He said that as an action director, he always wanted to make an action film reflecting the war, and the Flying Tigers just met his requirements. "In fact, this movie has brought me a lot of pressure. After all, it has affected a whole generation, but this pressure is also the driving force. Remaking also means attracting these old audiences back. " When it comes to originality, director Wang Xinmin is very confident. He said that adding martial arts elements to the play should be the most attractive selling point for the audience. "The audience can see very wonderful fighting scenes in the new version of Iron, and the action part is also very wonderful. What I have to do is to make the war movies show a real fighting feeling. " So will adding martial arts elements make the audience feel fake? Wang Dao pointed out that Flying Tigers itself is a very legendary story, and the injection of action elements will undoubtedly bring great attention to the audience.

This role is no longer a high school book.

Talking about inheriting the essence of classic movies, Wang Dao pointed out that in the new TV series, he deliberately kept some classic scenes from the old movies and copied them into the TV series. As for the subversion of the original work, Wang Dao told reporters that Liu Zhixia's original novel Flying Tigers has more than 400,000 words, and the previous film and television works have not captured all the contents of the novel. At the same time, the previous works are rough in characterization and the design of fighting scenes, so the new version of Iron just makes a very good supplement. Wang Dao specifically pointed out that only in fighting scenes, "we combine traditional martial arts with computer special effects to form a martial arts style with good authenticity and appreciation." When it comes to shaping the main characters, Wang Dao said that in previous works, Liu Hong, Wang Qiang and others were heroes as soon as they appeared. Because of the limitation of space, it is difficult for the audience to see their growth process. So, in the new TV series, "these heroes are no longer as high as before." They are ordinary people with flesh and blood and feelings. "

"nostalgia" again

When interviewing the audience who followed the drama, the reporter learned that many people saw comic-like scenes in the new version of Flying Tigers, and many of them were almost the reappearance of the scenes in comics. When the reporter asked the director Wang Xinmin for verification, he said with a smile that it was really intentional. As we all know, in the 1960s, the comic book Flying Tigers swept the country, and many people grew up watching such comic books. In order to "reminisce" about that generation through TV series, Wang Xinmin bought a comic book of Flying Tigers for everyone in the crew at the beginning of filming, and everyone pondered the scene whenever they had time. As a result, many scenes in TV series are "copied" according to these pictures.

There is no substitute for beloved pipa.

Remaking classic works, the old and new versions are inextricably linked. The same is true of the TV series "Iron", except for the comic classic pictures mentioned above, even the theme song "Playing My Beloved Pipa" has not changed. In this regard, Wang Xinmin's statement is that this song is so influential that no other song can replace it. For Wang Dao, keeping this song is also a way to pay tribute to the classic works.

Perform real kung fu on the train

The slogan of the new edition of Iron is "The biggest train show in China", which shows the confidence of its producers. Director Wang Xinmin said that in order to shoot the train scene well, the director team specially built a railway line of 10 kilometers in Zaozhuang, and also transferred more than a dozen trains to help shoot for a month. "Many of our actors are from action dramas, but seven people were injured during the filming. We try our best to show the audience the real and natural fighting scenes. I believe that our drama is the best in the red classics, and the fighting scene must surpass the martial arts drama of Hong Kong and Taiwan. " Although the director's tone is very confident, when the reporter watched the train play, he found that many stunt shots looked a bit "fake". It seems that the production team needs to make more efforts in this regard in the future.
