What do you mean by ink attack? Please explain.

It means "Mozi Raiders"

"Ink" should be accompanied by "defense", but "attack" forms "ink attack". These two words that should not be together at all are the most extreme and contradictory core of today's story. The cost of defense and the motive of attack make everyone think more about the lost war. From an ancient story, the "ink attack" can remind people that today, no matter what the war around us is, we don't want it to happen. But if it can be avoided, can we not let the war happen! This is the soul of Mo Chong's story.

The movie "Mo Attack" is adapted from a Japanese best-selling comic book of the same name. Director Zhang Zhiliang spent nearly ten years planning and preparation, and with an unprecedented ancient battlefield, hundreds of brave, careless, unpretentious and lonely Zhao Jun and 4,000 old, weak, women and children were torn, mixed and mercilessly thrown into the history of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in 370 BC. The director told an absolutely "no attack" story with "ink attack"!

Comic book "Ink Attack"

Mori Hideki, who is good at biographies of historical figures, won the 1995 Japanese Academy Comic Award for Mo Attack, which is based on historical materials of China and legendary stories imagined by the author. Based on the historical novels of Nine Kenichi, Mori Hideki launched a wonderful fighting spirit process of "attacking the city" and "guarding the city" against the background of the hegemony of the Seven Heroes in the Warring States Period, which profoundly portrayed the face of human beings. The protagonist in the play is from Mohism. He is really a wise man with extraordinary strategy, leading the people to resist the huge army attack. The story is fascinating and well received by comic book fans.

Plot introduction:

More than 2,200 years ago, China was still in a period of contention and hegemony among countries. At this time, the powerful Zhao wanted to capture the Yan State in one fell swoop, and the first condition to realize this plan was to break the Liang State sandwiched between Zhao and Yan States. So, General Zhao was ordered to lead 100,000 troops to approach Liangcheng with only 4,000 women and children in the flood.

At the time of crisis, King Liang prayed to Mohist school, the so-called master of guarding the city, to resist the defenders of 100,000 troops. But what Liang Wang is waiting for is an unremarkable and solitary Mohist-Geli.

Arrogant Zhao Bing despises this nobody from Mohism. However, Gretchen attacked and bravely resisted the sneak attack of Zhao's two thousand soldiers and horses, which made Zhao helpless and failed.

Gradually, I trained wholeheartedly, personally built countless special weapons, strengthened the defensive power of Liangcheng, and responded to the huge attack from Zhao at any time. All the people in Liangcheng were deeply impressed by the separation. However, the sudden arrival of Mohist descendants revealed a shocking secret, which immediately frightened Liangcheng. At this time, the jealousy of Liang Wang is like a ghost, hidden around Geli, combative.

Outside the city, Xiang Yan used different siege methods, but unfortunately, except for the defeated soldiers, Liangcheng could not be captured, which made Ge Li's reputation spread all over the country, far exceeding the incompetent Liang Wang and the strong Xiang Yan.

When the Zhao army had no intention of attacking the war, the king of Zhao suddenly ordered the retreat! Although the alley was flooded and ordered to retreat, he insisted on staying and fighting to repay his men who died in the battlefield. As a result, 2,000 men loyal to the flooded alley turned back in unison, vowing to conquer Liangcheng.

It is said that there are only more than 2,000 Zhao soldiers outside the city, and they think that they are on a roll and are eager to drive away. After enjoying a moment of peace, the people in Liangcheng gradually forgot Geli's contribution and returned to their former life, neglecting their defense. At this moment, Zhao attacked the city in the lane again, and captured Liangcheng with no effort.

Ge Li was not trapped by the flood, but he believed that Ge Li would not abandon Liangcheng, so he took the citizens as hostages and forced Ge Li to show up.

The appearance of Geli and the fate of Liangcheng are all up in the air in the ups and downs of the war.

Behind the scenes production:

Film synopsis

The film "Mo Attack" co-produced by China, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea160,000 US dollars is adapted from the comic book of the same name issued by Japanese Primary School in Mori Hideki. It is the painstaking work of director Zhang Zhiliang after ten years of planning and preparation. It has brought together top Asian film professionals to shoot, and invited two film emperors from Korea and Hong Kong-Ahn Sung ki and Andy Lau as the leading roles, as well as Fan Bingbing and Nicky Wu. Different from the gorgeous colors of large-scale costume movies in recent years and the way in which a large number of special effects present martial arts aesthetics, Ink Attack chooses the simplest and most realistic style as the keynote of the film to convey the cruelty of war and the contradiction of human nature.

In order to be close to history, the Mo attack team built a large-scale scenery covering an area of 66,000 square meters in Hebei, and perfectly reproduced the ancient city, city walls, villages and prisons during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period 2,500 years ago with loess, trees, houses and bricks. When shooting the first war scene, 700 field troops and 150 extras were used to form various team forms, and 400 local horse divisions and horses were found to form a cavalry formation. In addition, there are 40 professional action actors and 350 employees, a total of thousands of people cooperate with the director to complete the scene of Zhao being attacked in two mountains.

Although we strive to be "real", special effects are absolutely indispensable compared with ink attack. Two-thirds of the film "Ink Attack" needs special effects, and most of them focus on various siege modes, such as the flying height and state of "Sky Lantern Besieged City" and the splash effect of "Water Attack". Now, we need special effects. According to the physical characteristics, more images that conform to the real world are produced. Special effects can help reduce costs, turn hundreds of thousands of soldiers into millions and prevent injuries. Zhang Zhiliang hopes to hide the traces of special effects in cities, fortresses, smoke and crowds. "The best special effect is to make the audience forget the existence of special effects!" Zhang Zhiliang said.

In the field of clothing and art design, Mo Chong also emphasizes simplicity and simplicity to express history, and the colors of clothing are low-key dark or light. It can be said that this film is following the truth of history and trying to approach history in color, while emphasizing the visual effect of drama in design. As far as art is concerned, in terms of art, "Mo Attack" wants to create a war two thousand years ago, express the so-called Warring States attack at that time, and specially design and produce various chariots, weapons and armaments, which is comparable to Bielie.

The filming process of "Ink Attack" is relatively hard, and the main scenes are more than those in Hebei. It was the cold winter, and the temperature was about MINUS ten degrees. Bad weather conditions tested the crew. All the staff worked hard with extraordinary perseverance to launch the weakest battle in history. China's films seldom take "besieged city" and "guarding the city" as their themes. Zhang Zhiliang believes in the story of the ink attack itself.

Talk less

When the temperature is 0-3 degrees, we should shoot Hanako diving into the dungeon to save the beauty. Hanako and Bingbing, together with a group of photographers and staff, have to soak in the cold and dirty water with a depth of more than four meters below zero for six hours, which makes Hanako sigh, "The reputation of every hero who saves the United States is hard-won. I really don't understand why those heroes who save beauty can always think about beauty in times of hardship. I just feel that people who are frozen to death are shocked and can't think of anything except the cold war. What does it feel like to have no beauty? "

In order to shoot the scene where the leading actor in the water dungeon saved the beauty, director Zhang Zhiliang and more than 20 staff members suffering from a bad cold had to soak in the ice water at minus 10 degree from the beginning, arrange the machine and design the best shooting position so as not to make the two actors suffer. The seriously ill director stayed in the cold water all the time, and was the first to go into the water, showing the actors how to do it and constantly encouraging the two actors. Director Zhang's speech: "Although the cold makes me cough constantly, and I know that soaking in ice water for six hours will make my condition worse, as a director of Mohist attack, I must set an example. At first, I was worried that Bingbing and Andy would not stand it, but they never said a word of hard work, which made me very moved. "

In order to shoot the scene of the water dungeon, the crew can be said to be ready. Arrange ten lifeguards and divers to be present, just in case; In addition, 10 oxygen cylinders are provided for Hanako and Bingbing to use underwater. Although Hanako and Bingbing are wearing diving suits, the water temperature is too low to keep warm. On one occasion, a staff member suggested putting warm bags to raise the water temperature, but Director Zhang Zhiliang calculated that at least 300 warm bags should be put to raise the water temperature, and there was a risk of electric leakage, so he gave up the idea. Finally, I just gave them a few cups of hot water when shooting, and let them fall on their bodies to warm up temporarily. When they could stop filming, they used quite traditional blankets and hot ginger soup to keep warm, but both the protagonists and the crew in the water said, "This is the coldest experience in our lives, and we are almost unconscious." .

The scene of the hero saving the United States was taken six times. Hua Zai said that Bingbing was waiting for him to save at the bottom of the water. He tried it once. He swam to a place in the dark and touched a person. He immediately said nothing and took this object to perform on the water. Unexpectedly, he realized that it would be stirred. He was not holding the ice, but the diver below, and everyone almost died laughing. Hua Tsai said, "I can't see anything at all. When I touch someone, I think it's ice and ice, so cold that I can't breathe. Why don't I try my best to carry this man upstream? When I reached the surface of the water, I couldn't laugh myself. "

Trivia:

Two-thirds of the film "Ink Attack" needs special effects.

Don't attack the scene of the first large-scale war, involving 1000 soldiers, 300 extras, 400 horses, 400 jockeys and 40 professional action actors.

Andy Lau injured the ligament of his left foot while filming the scene of flying down from a tower above five stories, and needed to rest for a month. The crew had to change their plans, from shooting martial arts dramas to shooting literary dramas first.

Andy Lau, Fan Bingbing, director Zhang Zhiliang and others soaked in water at minus seven degrees for six hours in order to shoot a hero of saving virtue in a dungeon.

During the three days when Choi Siwon, a popular Korean rising star, dubbed the film Attack of Mo, nearly 50 or 60 fans lined up outside the dubbing venue every day to watch their idols in shifts.

Andy Lau and Wang acted very well. Outside the Hall of Liang State, Hua Zi plays Ge Li with messy hair, prickly beard and ragged clothes, and only uses his eyes and body movements to "fight" with Wang. Corresponding to Andy's silence, it is Wang's brilliant lines. Wang's shocking performance in every sentence makes everyone admire him.

When shooting a scene called "Five Horses Split Up", the names of "Five Horses" and Mr. Five Horses were emphasized. When the on-site staff are in a hurry, they often turn "shooting five horses today" into "shooting five horses today". On the contrary, this episode made Mr. Wu Ma tirelessly repeat and accept it.

Director Zhang Zhiliang's wife and triplets came from Canada to visit the class. Three 10-year-old boys like Nicky Wu very much, and they follow him wherever he goes. Chilong said: "No, the vast and quaint' city' of Mo Attack really seems to be a scene cloned from the game. Of course, children are curious! "

At the end of the film, Andy Lau, the star of "Don't Attack", specially hosted a banquet for the director Zhang Zhiliang and the crew, and set off fireworks to celebrate the successful stop of the film. Huazai not only took photos of all the staff seriously, but also made a photo of "Mo Chong" and sent it to every staff member.
