Chapter 338 That dazzling red

The US embassy in Shanghai confirmed the authenticity of the documents provided by Lin Zixuan, which means that this is indeed an American film company, and Lin Zixuan is only responsible for business management.

Faced with the Japanese protests, the staff at the US Embassy were quite dissatisfied.

As the US diplomatic institution in China, they have an obligation to protect the interests of their own companies in China, without helping the Japanese oppress their own companies.

Moreover, China's largest film company belongs to the United States, which is the best proof of the spread of American culture in China.

The US Embassy knows that this is a movie about the Sino-Japanese War, but what does that have nothing to do with the United States.

They rejoice the Japanese, and the movie has not been filmed yet. I will talk about it after it is filmed. If the Japanese think there is a plot insulting Japan in the movie, then they will provide evidence.

It is unacceptable to maliciously accuse American film companies of no evidence.

At the same time, the US Embassy reminded Lin Zixuan that it is best not to have controversial plots in the movie, which will cause disputes between the two countries.

Fortunately, there is no movie censorship system in this era, otherwise it would be difficult for Lin Zixuan's movie to be released.

The Japanese did not expect that the Shanghai Star Film Company would become an American company, which unexpectedly happened.

If it is a Chinese company, they can still put pressure on the China** valve, which is difficult to deal with now. It will be too late to wait until the movie is released and it will cause bad effects.

After thinking about it, they had to look for evidence first.

The Japanese decided to focus on celebrity film companies and inquire about the shooting of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, and it would be best to get the script of the movie.

At the celebrity film company, all preparations are underway in an orderly manner.

The most important prop in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894 is warships. However, it is impossible to find a real warship in Shanghai to shoot movies, and there are not even scrapped warships.

Lin Zixuan found a smuggling ship through Feng Jingyao's relationship, which was modified from an abandoned warship.

There are also devices for firing shells in the smuggling ship, but they are no longer useful and have become decorations.

Fortunately, the crew just borrowed smuggling ships to shoot the naval battle scenes. There was no problem.

Moreover, no one in the crew could drive a smuggling boat, and the crew members of the smuggling boat were to control it.

Lin Zixuan talked to them, and the times are really chaotic.

They generally smuggle arms and smoke. These two are the most profitable. Shanghai is the second largest smuggling wharf in China. The largest smuggling wharf in China is Guangzhou and the coastal areas of Fujian, which is also a place where smuggling is popular.

Most of their arms came from warlords from all over the country and firearms replaced by foreign garrisons.

Now the warlords are fighting each other. It is a good opportunity for their wealth. If it weren't for Feng Jingyao's relationship, they would never have made a movie here. Fortunately, there was only one month, so I just thought it would be a temporary rest.

This is a world that Lin Zixuan has never been exposed to.

He came with Uncle Xiang, who is Feng Jingyao's spokesperson and the old world in Shanghai.

On the way, Uncle Xiang persuaded Lin Zixuan not to make trouble with the Japanese, as it was difficult for the Japanese to mess with them.

They still have some concerns now. If they offend them ruthlessly and do everything, they will be murdered before, and fighting with them is not worth it.

This is also what most people in Shanghai think, and think that Lin Zixuan became famous at a young age, was young and energetic, and was too aggressive.

Just now, we had a quarrel with the Soviets, and we turned around and had sex with the Japanese again.

Chinese people emphasize harmony as the most important thing, especially businessmen, who are well aware of the principle of harmony making money. Lin Zixuan's approach is a manifestation of immaturity, and at least he should think about it for his family.

Uncle Xiang is someone around Feng Jingyao, and what he said was obviously Feng Jingyao's meaning.

Feng Jingyao may not care about Lin Zixuan, but he also doesn't want his daughter to be a widow. Now that Lin Zixuan is famous, he is not easy to say something in person, so he let Uncle Xiang pass the message.

Why does Lin Zixuan not understand the truth? Sometimes he wants to go with the flow and live his own life well.

He knew the general trend of history and could prepare early. He could avoid disasters and ensure his glory and wealth in this life and have no worries about food and clothing.

But he can't help but do some things, and he doesn't want to regret it in the future.

But you still have to be careful in the future. After all, he is a family and a family. It would be bad if he implicates his family.

Lin Zixuan dealt with Uncle Xiang and went to the film company.

There is no problem with Zheng Zhengqiu, just shoot according to normal circumstances. The key is that Hong Shen cannot shoot the scenes of the Lushun Massacre in Shanghai, and it is easy to be exposed.

Hong Shen is still engaged in dramas, teaching in the Foreign Languages ​​Department of Fudan University, and is also the head of the Fudan Drama Club.

He planned to take the troupe to perform in other places and go to Guangzhou under this name. There is also a shooting venue in Guangzhou, just bring the shooting equipment.

He even thought of taking some shots on site in Lushun.

This idea was dissuaded by Lin Zixuan. During this period, Lushun was still under the control of the Japanese. It was too risky to go to Lushun. He didn't want to kill someone for filming a movie.

After all, safety is the most important thing.

Lin Zixuan and Hong Shen talked about an idea.

Sino-Japanese War is a black and white movie. He wants to add a set of colorful shots, which is the image of a little girl wearing red clothes appearing in the Lushun Massacre.

Let this bright red figure become the only color in the movie and leave a deep impression on the audience.

This is what he saw from the Schindler list of later generations.

During the German army's massacre of the Jews, there was a little girl in red among the Jews, which contrasted with the black and white scenes around her, and had a strong infectiousness and stinging the hearts of the audience.

Lin Zixuan wanted to achieve this effect so that the audience could remember this shot after watching the movie and remember the atrocities of the Japanese.

Hong Shen thinks it's good. This may be the most classic shot in the whole movie, and he must shoot it well.

Although Shanghai Star Film Company has not yet filmed a color film, it is not difficult. Just buy color film.

At this time, the telegram order will arrive in more than a month, so the shooting progress will not be delayed.

The two decided to discuss and Hong Shen set off for Guangzhou.

As for the Japanese entanglement, Lin Zixuan will make people deliberately leak a script, so that the Japanese can feel at ease for the time being.

At this point, he breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't miss home because his family was in trouble.

After his sister Lin Xiaoling came, she entered the blind date program.

She is twenty years old this year. The lady from a wealthy family in Shanghai is either getting married or getting engaged at this age.

It is rare to see leftover women like the third lady of the Song family who are nearly thirty years old and have not yet started a family.

The family did not urge Lin Xiaoling to get married, but it was okay to get engaged first. Before that, you can meet young talents in Shanghai and get to know each other.

This is the same as the first time Lin Zixuan and Feng Chengcheng met, and everyone came here like this.

Lin Xiaoling went to see her several times, but after being influenced by foreign countries, her vision became higher. It was difficult for these young men in Shanghai to satisfy her, so they all rejected them.

According to Feng Chengcheng, this sister-in-law is ten times more picky than her back then.

Thinking of this, Lin Zixuan couldn't help but shake his head. No matter in any era, marriage is a headache. (To be continued.)
