There is a movie that forgets the name and only remembers the plot.

Panda Home is a film jointly produced by Walter Disney Film and Yingdong Media. The film is directed by Chinese mainland's new generation director Yu Zhong. Jennifer Liu, who used to work and is now the CEO of Yingdong Media, is a producer and screenwriter. The hero is Daichi Harashima, who played Xiao Lu in Cecilia Cheung six years ago, leaving a deep impression on people. This is a real-life (animal) movie, which tells the story of a giant panda cub who was separated from his mother and was rescued by an orphan after going through difficulties and obstacles in the forest.

Plot introduction

Xiao Lu (played by Daichi Harashima) is an orphan whose parents died in a fire. He was confined to his own world until one day, a little panda came into his life. This little panda originally lived in the wild with its other mother and brother, but got lost because of a moment of fun and became the target of researchers. After being separated from her mother, the little panda struggled to survive in the wild alone until she met Xiao Lu. This pair of friends, who are in the same boat, have a feeling of knowing each other and cherishing each other, but because of this feeling and his own life experience, Xiao Lu realized that the greatest help he can give the panda is to help it find its way home and reunite with its mother.

4 behind the scenes

The film was produced by Yingdong Media, distributed nationwide by Huaxia Film Distribution Co., Ltd. and distributed internationally by Disney Film. This is the first time that the China Conservation Giant Panda Research Center of Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve Administration has fully supported the filming. The Panda's Way Home started shooting in Sichuan in February 2008. The crew went deep into Sichuan giant panda habitat to shoot, including the magnificent scenery of Siguniang Mountain. The green bamboo forest in Wolong Nature Reserve, the hometown of pandas, and the original ecological environment of pandas are rare to show their elegance on the big screen.

The China Research Center for the Protection of Giant Pandas fully supported the filming. Two female pandas and fourteen little pandas participated in the filming, among which Xiao Pang was the main character of the little panda, and six little pandas who were only half a year old took turns to perform. There are 140 scenes in the whole film, and as many as 120 scenes are performed by real pandas. However, there are also some dangerous scenes, such as a panda falling off a cliff. In order to prevent the panda from being hurt, the crew had to use computer synthesis to shoot.

When the film was about to be finished, unfortunately, an earth-shattering Wenchuan earthquake of magnitude 8 occurred on May 12, and the 28-member working group originally in Siguniang Mountain was also trapped in the local area for 4 days. Director Yu Zhong recalled the landslide that day. He said that the team took a photo in Balangshan that day and instantly felt the car shaking. The mountain in front of me suddenly split from the center, and then collapsed at the place where the filming was just finished, and the vehicles next to it were also submerged in the collapsed mountain. The crew tried to walk back to Wolong, only to find that the road was blocked and even the river had been diverted. Finally, they had to detour in the opposite direction to leave. In the meantime, they even slept in the wild for two nights, and finally they were rescued and returned to Chengdu.

Talk less

As for Sichuan Wolong National Nature Reserve, which was nominated as a World Natural Heritage and a member of UNESCO, and its affiliated China Giant Panda Protection Research Center, it suffered heavy losses in this earthquake. Among them, Mao Mao, who played the mother panda in The Panda's Way Home, died because her house was damaged by a boulder. This film became Mao Mao's screen legacy, and the children in Mao Mao's real life also participated in the performance of this film. They were orphaned by the death of Mao Mao's mother.

Although the crew of "Panda's Way Home" mostly came from, the crew still hired many elite teams from New Zealand, Canada, the United States, Britain and France to support the filming, including Zou Lianyou, a Hong Kong photography director who took photos of "Into the Phoenix", Chen, artistic director of Kung Fu, and a French animal trainer who just finished filming Slumdog Millionaire.

Due to the Wenchuan earthquake, The Panda's Way Home became the only film that completely recorded the original ecology of Sichuan Wolonglong National Nature Reserve before the earthquake. The earthquake caused countless lives to be lost, the natural environment was seriously damaged and animals were frightened. It seems that the film highlights a special meaning, that is, nature, human beings and animals are inseparable and must depend on each other to survive. The producer, director and all the working teams of this film specially dedicate this film to the people of Sichuan who are full of good humanity and courage, the staff of Wolong Nature Reserve and all the giant pandas, and all the public who have helped and are willing to lend a helping hand to the people of Sichuan in rebuilding their homeland.
