[size=2][color=blue]◎ Introduction [/color]

Chibi begins with the battle of Changbanpo. After Cao Cao defeated Liu Bei, he thought that Dongwu was a threat to his domination of the world, and Xiao Qiao, whom Cao Cao loved, was determined to attack Dongwu. In the name of mourning Liu Biao, Sun Quan sent Lu Su to see Liu Bei to discuss the common resistance against Cao. After Liu Bei agreed to the suggestion of uniting with Cao Cao, he sent Zhuge Liang. Sun Quan's sisters Sun Shangxiang and Lu Su strengthened his determination to fight Cao by stimulating Sun Quan, and recalled Zhou Yu to preside over the fight with Cao. The two armies finally joined forces in Chibi. Under the deception of Huang Gai, Cao Cao was defeated and returned to Jiangling along Huarong Road.

Behind the scenes production:

"Red Cliff" was cut into two episodes.

The head of Peak Pictures, which is responsible for the overseas distribution of the film, revealed that the Asian version of Red Cliff will be cut into two episodes, each of which will last for two hours, while the version outside Asia will be a two-and-a-half-hour single episode.

The idea of dividing Red Cliff into two episodes came from Han Sanping, general manager of China Film Group. "The story of the Three Kingdoms is so familiar to Asian audiences, especially those in China, Japan and South Korea. They can almost casually say every important person and every important battle. It is impossible to condense these into two hours, so we decided to release two versions. "

At present, nearly 10 countries have signed the memorandum of copyright purchase of Red Cliff, and European buyers have shown great interest in this oriental epic directed by John Woo. The first episode of Red Cliff is scheduled to be released in the summer before the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, and the next episode is scheduled for the Lunar New Year at the end of the year, but the release time outside Asia has not yet been determined.

The war drama is comparable to the "Trojan Horse Massacre"

Wu Yusen revealed that the film is progressing smoothly at present, and the Cao Jun camp built in Hebei is nearing completion. The reservoir and the mountains around it, which were used to shoot the water war, were later taken as three-dimensional model drawings by the computer special effects department and brought back to the United States. Because the mountains in the north are completely different from those in the south of the Yangtze River, they must be synthesized by computer. Wu Yusen said frankly, "The most difficult thing in the whole film is the war scene. Although I had experience in controlling the big scenes of war when shooting Whisperwind, it was more difficult to shoot water wars than before. "

During the filming, about 2000 warships with various ancient props gathered in a reservoir surrounded by mountains in Hebei Province to shoot big scenes. Wu Yusen will combine three-dimensional computer technology to turn this reservoir into the Yangtze River and the surrounding mountains into Chibi. Five famous computer stunt companies in the United States will be responsible for the computer animation part of the film. Director John Woo explicitly requested that the final effect should conform to The Trojan Horse Slaughter. At present, the total investment of this film has increased to 70 million dollars, making it the most expensive China film so far.

The script was changed to "Combination of Chinese and Western"

Since 2004, the producers have searched for excellent screenwriters, brainstormed and determined the outline of the original script, and divided Battle of Red Cliffs's story into six paragraphs, namely, Liu Bei's kindness to the people, Er Qiao's sacrifice for righteousness, Kong's encouragement to Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu's murder with a knife, Kong's boat with an arrow, and the east wind burning Red Cliff, and invited China as the first screenwriter. Director John Woo was not satisfied after reading it. He hoped that the characters in Battle of Red Cliffs would change: Liu Bei was no longer weak, Cao Cao was no longer treacherous, and Zhou Yu was no longer narrow-minded.

In 2006, John Woo invited Reid, another famous screenwriter in the film circle, to polish the existing script, which was revised to the ninth draft by Reid. John Woo's "ambition" is obvious. "I don't want to make an action movie or a martial arts movie, but I want to make a magnificent epic movie."

John Woo hopes that the final story will "combine Chinese and Western cultures", "excite China people who know this history, interest foreigners who don't know this history, and make it a truly international" Three Kingdoms ". Wu Yusen also stressed that the reason why the script has been revised so much is because the relationship between the story and the characters is very complicated. " Early tired of history, limited to some historical facts. Finally, I jumped out and slowly liberated my mind. In contrast, the contribution of the Three Kingdoms to the script is much greater than that of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. "

Red Cliff starring Storm Girl.

Red Cliff, which announced the cast list with great fanfare years ago, temporarily adjusted the actors. Tony Leung Chiu Wai resigned and Takeshi Kaneshiro will succeed Zhuge Liang. According to producer Zhang, Zhuge Liang's original name is. "I want Takeshi Kaneshiro to play early in the morning, and I think he is best suited to play Zhuge Liang, 27. It looks a bit silly at first, but there is a lot of wisdom hidden inside. "

Tony Leung Chiu Wai said that he resigned because there was no time to prepare. He admits that the dialogue of Red Cliff has increased a lot since it was changed from a movie to two episodes, because I have to prepare to act in Mandarin. But time is running out. I believe that Takeshi Kaneshiro's Mandarin is better than mine, and he will be much more relaxed in this respect. "

After Tony Leung Chiu Wai withdrew from Red Cliff, it was reported that Chow Yun Fat had been withdrawn. Because Chow Yun Fat listed about 80 performance conditions, investors balked. He was accused of "unreasonable demands" and was finally temporarily withdrawn. Chow Yun Fat also responded to this through the Internet, saying that the reason for his resignation was that the cast did not give the script for a long time, and expressed the hope that his feelings with John Woo would not be hurt.

After the Chow Yun Fat incident, the role of "Zhou Yu" became vacant. After two days of separate discussions, China Film Company and the crew finally decided on the candidate: Tony Leung Chiu Wai! Zhang, the producer of "Red Cliff", said that based on his friendship with director John Woo for more than 20 years and seeing Chow Yun Fat leave the crew, "Red Cliff is another highly anticipated work in the history of China movies, and it must be filmed." Waiting for the starting point, Tony Leung Chiu Wai "agreed" when he was invited by John Woo to return to the crew. When the crew contacted Tony Leung Chiu Wai again, they said "Zhou Yu" instead of "Zhuge Liang" who was replaced by Takeshi Kaneshiro after his resignation, and Tony Leung Chiu Wai himself basically agreed.

In addition, due to the "casting storm", the shooting time of "Red Cliff" was postponed from March to May, and many film workers faced the problem of contract expiration in September. Photographer Lv Le left the crew and was replaced by Zhang Li, while martial arts director Lin Dian was also replaced by Yuan Kui.

In fact, this is not the first time that the cast of Red Cliff has changed people. John Woo asked Gu Changwei to take charge of the camera before shooting, but Gu Changwei refused because the camera was too complicated to control. After joining the group, Lu Le said that "the whole process of cooperation with the director was not smooth and pleasant", and their differences were mainly reflected in their understanding of "violence aesthetics" and different requirements for the shooting effect. Regarding the specific cooperation with John Woo, in an interview with reporters before, Lu Le once said: "We don't often quarrel, but we still have differences in communication." He said that the generation gap between the two could not be avoided because of the age gap, but when they met with differences, they "still had to obey the director completely."

Lin Chi-ling's role in Little Joe was questioned.

John Woo chose Lin Chi-ling to play Xiao Qiao, and the opposition from the media was the loudest. Among them, her baby voice was the most criticized, and she was asked to learn from the teacher and try to correct it. Lin Chi-ling made great efforts to polish baby sounds for this film debut, and also declined many performance opportunities. However, it is reported that she has many pictures in the film, but only two lines; The way of expression is not difficult, and it is in danger of becoming a vase.

Wu Yusen firmly denied this. "The role of Joe is definitely not a' vase' role. She has many lines. I chose her not because of her beautiful image, but because of her beauty. I think the true beauty of a woman is reflected through internal and external reactions. " John Woo is also very satisfied with Lin Chi-ling's extensive preparation for this role. "Lin Chi-ling has no performance experience, so he has been running between Taipei and Beijing during this time, learning figure painting, calligraphy and painting with different teachers and working very hard."

I don't want to fight a heavy Battle of Red Cliffs. I want to make an original, emotional and exciting historical film. It would be even more wonderful if we could show the romance of magnificent mountains and rivers at the same time. -John Woo

June 5438 +20041early October, Poly Huayi faxed two Outlines of the Story of the Three Kingdoms written by Lan Xiaolong and Wang Qian to John Woo. After reading it in detail, director John Woo wrote a personal letter with a page of 17 on June 27th, 2004, affirming some of the ideas. In view of the character setting, pattern division, film style and "many places worth discussing", I talked about my detailed thoughts.

Director Wu Yusen once filmed "Seven-Day Tour in Jiangnan" in Zhejiang and other places. During this period, I not only discussed the framework and role setting of the script with three screenwriters, but also selected a large number of scenic spots related to the Three Kingdoms in Hengdian Film and Television Base and Wuxi Film and Television City.

Macroscopic hypothesis

Come when you should, and stop when you should.

"As an' international' film, especially in terms of the knowledge level and perspective of modern people and modern audiences, it should be' love to use, stop when it comes'. In addition to the emotion to conform to the role, it should also leave space for the audience to imagine and feel. "

Character setting

Add Liu Bei and Guan Yu to set off Cao Cao's vanity.

"Guan Yu should have a deeper description. Liu Bei, he has perseverance, patience, never discouraged and perseverance. On the surface, it seems that there is no plan, but in fact, the plan is in my heart, not publicity, not show. Zhuge not only solved the knot between Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but also properly adjusted the work position of the war generals because of their different specialties, skills and even personalities, and made up for the shortage of Wu Dong's army with their love. With the perfect cooperation and the serial interception of this transfer, we finally defeated 800,000 troops with a few military forces. In this way, he not only shows the wisdom of dispatching troops, but also fully shows the different talents of Zhuge, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun. It can also be worthy of the talents of Sun Quan and Zhou Yu. Let both sides play perfectly. Although Liu Bei is not good at the art of war. But he is sure to employ people and serve others with virtue, so he hopes to show a good commander-in-chief and a good "boss" demeanor through the role of Liu Bei. Adding some of their scenes will set off Cao Cao's vanity.

Cao Cao is multifaceted, a soldier with a distinct personality, clear rewards and punishments, and can show love and sympathy for his subordinates. He has always advocated that the three armed forces should not move, that food and grass should come first, and that only when there are enough soldiers can we fight well. In addition, he did not trample on the wheat fields when marching, and also showed respect for local farmers. "

Character design adds modern flavor.

"In addition to some historical facts, several main characters in the play need extra processing to add some real faces that modern people can' replace'. For example, it is difficult to find a legendary figure like Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun and Guan Yu in our story, who is loyal and full of wisdom, handsome and idealistic. But it feels like they're right next to us. Or suddenly realize that the viewers themselves are Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun. Because everyone has this spirit, but it has not been discovered. We can't substantially change the historical facts of this story. However, some' modern' people's breath can be added to the design of the characters, so that the viewer can take a deep breath (but it does not mean that some modern languages should be forcibly added). "

Little people's stories become inspirational stories.

"I think the story of the little people in the play can become an inspirational story. Especially now, many young people commit suicide because they can't stand all kinds of pressure and have low willpower. This is very regrettable. They really need some good inspiration. Let's talk about the thinking of modern people, even the thinking of westerners. The real hero is to live, not to die. "

The most taboo is to describe the villain as too stupid.

"The most taboo in a play is to describe the villain too stupid. The stupidity of the villain makes the decent look less intelligent. Bitter plan is a successful strategy in the first attack, and there is a kind of pleasure that the extremes meet. One reason for Cao Cao's failure is overconfidence. "

Pattern division

Emotional dramas, martial arts dramas and wits-fighting dramas each account for one third.

"About the emotional drama between the protagonist and the little guy, if in proportion, it should only account for one third or more, and the other third is martial arts. This includes offensive and defensive strategies, fighting, fighting, burning serial ships, and martial arts decisive battles. The remaining third is wisdom, which can best show the great wisdom and courage of China people, and is also a major element that can increase the audience's feelings and excitement. This involves three heroes (Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang and Cao Cao) fighting wits and coming up with their own plans. Like a wonderful game. Emotion, ingenuity and the pleasure of turning defeat into victory can be seen in the game. There are also the wisdom of the weak overcoming the strong, the wisdom of human overcoming nature, and the wisdom of human care. The "big feelings" running through the whole film is the spirit of loyalty. This is very important, and it is also the main force to promote the sense, rhythm, action and momentum of the whole story. It is also a kind of spiritual strength, and the audience can feel and breathe in a simple way without wasting pen and ink. I believe that the above rough analysis will contribute to the "pattern" of this film.

Film style

The big pattern and great momentum follow the longest day.

"When it comes to the film's big pattern, great momentum, unified thinking, closely combined atmosphere and climax, it is very similar to the 1962 American war film" The Longest Day ",which tells the story of the Allied forces landing in Normandy, France, and counterattacking the Germans during World War II. The last scene of the allied attack on the beach, its tragic degree and the atmosphere at the scene were the same, much like the plot of the allied forces in Battle of Red Cliffs and Wu Dong, burning serial warships from water to land ... "

"In the history of the world, there are many outstanding historical figures worthy of our admiration. Their sentiment, their personality and their contribution are closely related to us in every aspect, which has also brought us many extraordinary influences. Therefore, I attach great importance to the significance brought by the three countries of Battle of Red Cliffs. The same is true for dealing with historical war scenes. From the perspective of war, we must show a kind of tolerance, a kind of care, and from the perspective of human nature, we must show a noble sentiment. "

Picture requirements

The poetic, romantic and powerful composition makes China picturesque.

"The two drafts (the first draft of the plot outline of Lan Xiaolong and Wang Qian) have mastered many good aspects of human nature, only to see how to make better use of them. I don't want to fight a heavy Battle of Red Cliffs. I want to make an original, emotional and exciting historical film. This kind of "excitement" contains positive life significance and magnificent war scenes. It would be even more wonderful if we could show the romance of magnificent mountains and rivers at the same time. I attach great importance to visual arts. I like to convey meaning with scenery. Sometimes I prefer poetic and romantic picture composition, but at the same time I also attach great importance to atmosphere. Therefore, when designing every scene, even the war scene, I can write the beautiful scenery and historical sites of our country, even the grass, trees and canyon paths into the scene. China, who used this to express poetry and painting. Besides writing about landscapes, I also pay great attention to the visual art of action movies. Even though I have made many American commercial blockbusters, in the past, my style was to integrate actions into feelings and pay attention to the beauty and meaning of actions. Especially when conveying a noble spirit or lofty spirit of sacrifice, I will use extremely romantic skills combined with powerful picture composition to express it, and sometimes I like to cut into the action with the symbolic meaning of scenery and objects, for example, I often use white doves. I also pay attention to excitement, novelty and challenge to difficulty. Battle of Red Cliffs just provided the above elements. "

Trivia:

Wu Yusen said: "When I was about 65,438+00 years old, I drew a picture of The Three Kingdoms on the glass with a brush, and then I took a flashlight and covered it with a blanket. It's as black as a cinema. When I turned on the flashlight, the light passed through the glass and projected the picture onto the wall. As my hand moves up and down, I feel the image moving, which is very interesting. "

According to Ye Jintian, when ZhangFeng yi was asked to play Cao Cao, the crew had some hesitation, because ZhangFeng yi's appearance was too healthy and decent, and they were worried that Cao Cao would not put enough pressure on the whole movie.

Lin Chi-ling's tall and slim figure is not suitable for China women in ancient costume, because she is too tall and has western standards, and it is difficult to meet the definition of classical beauty: small shoulders, flat chest, slightly shorter legs, slightly raised abdomen and so on. Finally, Ye Jintian deliberately turned Xiao Qiao's clothes down and added overlapping collocation.

"Red Cliff" has been suffering since its preparation. Because it doesn't conform to the director's idea, the martial arts finger is changed to Yuan Kui in the middle, and some previous plays have to be remake; Due to the schedule, photographer Lu Le had to leave the group. However, Tony Leung Chiu Wai resigned from Zhuge Liang, and Chow Yun Fat broke the contract halfway, so the loss caused by the change of the protagonist was almost devastating, and the scenery, costumes and so on had to be redesigned because of the change of the protagonist. In addition, the film was originally scheduled to be filmed in the Yangtze River in Hubei before shooting, but it had to be filmed temporarily in Hebei studio because of environmental problems; The heavy rain during shooting stopped shooting again and again; The plane crashed; A fire broke out during the make-up, and 1 the staff was killed.

Wonderful dialogue:

Xiao Qiao: "You lied to everyone and said that Jiangnan was for me, but it was just a trick to alienate us!" " "

Cao Cao: "But I already like you!" " "

Little Joe: "No, you just want me. You have calculated everything, and now you have calculated it yourself! " "

Sun Shangxiang: "Governor, I will go with you!" " "

Zhou Yu: "Where to?"

Sun Shangxiang (proudly): "Go and shoot tigers!" (The tiger speaks of the devil)

Lu Su: "Princess, this is no joke! ? "

Sun Shangxiang: "Who pissed you off? I'm tired of listening to those ministers sigh here every day. I'm going to hang myself! "

In Wu Dongjun's camp, Zhuge Liang said, "This is the long snake array in Changshan. There is a saying in the Art of War:' If you hit the head, you will respond; Unfortunately, this law is out of date ... "

Zhou Yu: "You said my array was out of date. So, what do you think is out of date? "

Zhuge Liang (unhurried): "If you use it in time, it will be out of date."

At the Governor's Office, Zhou Yu said, "I thought Mr. Zhuge was knowledgeable and only cared about state affairs, but I didn't expect to know how to send horses!"

Zhuge Liang: "I thought the viceroy was only familiar with the battle of chariots and horses, but I didn't expect to hear even a wrong tune."

Zhou Yu: "Ha, I'm just a warrior."

Zhuge Liang: "Am I not a countryman? ! "[/
