- The filming of the "earthquake scene" does not require rain, but it rained a lot a few days ago and the crew had to wait, but the cost was greatly increased. The film crew rented a British machine called "Motion Controle". The rent is more than 30,000 yuan a day, and two British assistants cost 1,000 US dollars a day. Originally planned to rent for 5 days, but due to rain, it was delayed for nearly 6 days, and more than 200,000 yuan was lost.
- In pursuit of reality, the investor built more than 10 buildings on both sides of the two- to three-hundred-meter-long street as a real scene. It is impossible to build a real building. The investment is too large. It can only be a semi-set and semi-real building. The building is neither poured nor dug into the foundation. However, during the filming, hundreds of actors and staff, machinery and equipment had to go up, coupled with the rainy autumn, greatly increased the risk of building collapse.
- The weather was already in October when the scene was filmed, and the weather was relatively cold, but the film reflects the events in July. Many extras wore panty vests and filmed the rain. It was very cold.
- There is no uniform for the army in 1976, so we have to find samples and order them at the processing factory. The crew finally found the Bayi Factory to solve the problem.
- Filming a scene of burning paper is about burning paper in the streets and alleys ten years after the earthquake to pay tribute to the lost loved ones at home. The crew invited a lot of extras from Tangshan. There was crying all over the alley when Xiaogang Feng said, "Stop, stop, we're done shooting." They said, "We can't stop ."

I don't know if some of the plots were cut out or what, it felt a little disconnected. . . I was very moved to see the back, especially the actions of the mother after the Wenchuan earthquake, which I will not forget for a long time.

End of discussion. I'm not moving anywhere.
