The staff of the film built a building covering an area of 200 acres with bricks and tiles. Not only did they manually excavate a new Suzhou River, but they also constructed 1:1 real-life buildings on both sides of the river
. During the filming, the demolition site in Baisha, Ningbo was set as the scene of the Battle of Songhu. In pursuit of reality, the crew spent a year and a half in the Huayi Brothers Movie Worldshooting base to design and build a 200-acre site with 68 buildings, and dug the 200-meter-long Suzhou River to restore the war on both sides of the river. The "hell" of the sky and the "heaven" of the sensual neon. The entire film used 300 flares to reproduce the lighting effects on the battlefield of the Battle of Songhu. A total of more than 300 kilograms of e-liquid and nearly 5 tons of old newspapers were burned, creating a real battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke and artillery fire. In order to present the best visual effects, ensure the realism of the picture and highlight the aesthetic value, Cao Yu, the director of photography, set up more than 2,000 lamps on the set to match different shots

There are a lot of good points. Guan Hu is still very solid in his performance. Among the sixth-generation directors, he is probably the one with the most type of film thinking. The blasting scenes, shootout scenes, and the presentation of brotherhood (comradeship) are no worse than the battle-hardened Hong Kong directors Chen Musheng, Lin Chaoxian, and Chen Desen. At the end of the retreat scene, there were many audiences around crying. The tension and emotion brought by this scene probably did not lose the plot of the fishermen collectively sailing to rescue the British army at the end of "Dunkirk". Of course, there are some common faults in war films. The first half is obviously cut to pieces (of course, it is also related to the deletion), and too many character viewpoints are basically an old problem of domestic war films. Huayi probably packed all its own stars. went in. It’s a pity that the flag-guarding section has been deleted, and the rest of the deletions are quite obvious. Although the current version has a high degree of completion, as an audience, who is more inclined to see the director’s demands rather than political stances? The full version, after all, still has regrets. In the end, in every sense of the word, the people involved on stage and behind the scenes are worthy of admiration.

What's more touching is shouting my name and then jumping off the building to reveal that I was crying, and the ending felt a bit sloppy, and the old abacus disappeared.
