[Interstellar] Rise of a Monk

Chapter 22: "Fearless"

Xia Qiulai adjusted his military uniform in front of the tall square mirror, and buttoned the buttons on his collar one by one.

Students majoring in modeling really save trouble. Basically, they keep the military uniforms of the Empire and the Federation as they are, but make some changes on the shoulders, waist, and military boots.The imperial high-necked military uniform with silver and white as the main color is simple and comfortable, close-fitting and easy to move, and the dark brown boots are only a few centimeters high to the knees.

Xia Qiulai stretched out his white-gloved hand and pressed down the brim of his hat. The person in the mirror looked affectionate, with a smile on his face, appearing restrained and coquettish.

Xia Qiulai, who left the locker room, was almost dazzled by the sea blue as soon as he went out.

Because the story is mainly about the rookie army of the Federation, the entire crew is only Xia Qiulai and one or two students who play the role of imperial officers in silver and white military uniforms, and most of the rest are all in navy blue federal soldier uniforms.They gather together like a vast ocean.

It is also difficult for the crew to find so many extras, and it is estimated that not all of them are students of "Emperor Film".

Xia Qiulai soon found the male number one "Xu Qingshu".I really didn't expect that even Wen Zihan, the protagonist, was treated the same as the background panel, wearing a standard navy blue soldier outfit with no distinctive features, mixed in the ocean.Fortunately, his good looks are good enough for him to "stand out from the crowd" and not become one of the passers-by.

Xia Qiulai smacked his lips regretfully after receiving the "pointer" representing the identity of the instructor from the hands of the students who acted as field staff.It's a pity that this thing is not as long as his arm, and it's not for hitting people, but it's good for him to hold anything, as long as it's more camera-friendly than empty hands.

After all aspects were ready, the filming of "Fearless" officially started.

Zhong Fan with a smile on his lips stood side by side with an expressionless federal officer. The recruits in front of him were rookies who had just been recruited from the civilian population and had only received the most basic soldier training.

The federal officer said coldly to the recruits: "This is Captain Zhong from the Sky Empire, and he will be fully responsible for your future training."

Then he looked at Zhong Fan, and said in an unhurried manner: "Captain Zhong, I will leave this place to you."

Zhong Fan gave him a standard general military salute, and responded, "Yes!"

After watching the federal officers leave, Zhong Fan turned to face the group of recruits until his back was within sight.

He stood upright with his hands behind his back, smiling unabated, like poplars standing upright in the desert, or like peach trees swaying in spring.

"I don't know you, and I don't intend to know you now."

The first words Zhong Fan said to them surprised the recruits.However, the basic training that they have received is now playing a role. No one has changed, but some people's faces involuntarily showed a look of surprise.

Zhong Fan was obviously satisfied with their attitude. He nodded and continued: "Before today, we didn't know each other. I hope that in the future, you can let me remember you."

Having said that, he chuckled lightly and said, "Of course, what I want to remember is your excellence."

"Although I am from the Sky Empire, and you were born in the Splendid Federation, we are all human beings, and the Zerg race is our common enemy."

Zhong Fan put away his smile and said seriously: "No matter who you were or what occupation you were in, you must forget the past. Just remember, now you are soldiers just like me!"

"On the battlefield, our countless comrades built a line of defense to protect our country and our home."

"Today we stay behind with the people. One day, we will go to the front and defend our country!"

"The duty of a soldier is to defend the country!"

Zhong Fan's sharp eyes scanned the audience: "Anyone who is greedy for life and afraid of death, come out immediately and get out of here! After today, your lives will no longer belong to you! You may enter the battlefield at any time. It is possible to lose your life! Those who are afraid of death, leave immediately!"

As soon as this remark came out, there was no sound on the field.Many people showed a look of hesitation, but no one moved.

"I have already given you a choice." Zhong Fan smiled, "From now on, I will teach you seriously, and my requirements are very strict. I hope that some of you will be able to surpass my military rank in the future, Let’s make this the closest goal.”

……

The filming of "Fearless" lasted a total of six days, fully displaying the "combination of work and rest" to the fullest, and it just overwhelmed "The Name of the Flower" they shot a few days earlier - Xu Xiao's "The Name of the Flower" in "The Name of the Flower" The filming of "Fearless" ended one day after the filming.

Xia Qiulai closes the reading window of Xu Xu's memoirs.

The role of Zhong Fan he played was concentrated in the first three days, and all filming had already been completed.In the practice group, only Wen Zihan needed to shoot from the first day to the last day.

Before filming, Xia Qiulai did not search for Xu Xu's memoirs, nor did he search for related derivative works of "Same-Ren" in order to save worry and trouble.

There are not many derivative works that focus on this period of history as the main plot and have a double harvest of popularity and word-of-mouth. There are only two novella romance novels, seven short stories, three TV series and two movies.Each work has different views on the main historical figures, and the central idea expressed is also inconsistent. It is generally recognized that the most classic and most in line with the characters is the earliest documentary TV series.

After Xia Qiulai looked at them one by one, she was quite amazed.

The reason why "Fearless" is called "Fearless" comes from the name of the fleet that Xu Xu and others were in when they were sent to the front line.

The rookies who were driven to the shelves back then were assigned to a fleet with only an empty shell, and under the name of "fearless", they did acts of fearlessness.There were a total of 560 people, and only one person survived to return to the land of the Splendid Federation. Strength and luck are indispensable.

Xu Xu's life is a legend.He is the luckiest person in the Dreadnought fleet—he may not really be the strongest and most capable person in the "Dreadnought", but he is indeed the "luckiest" person—the last 490 people scattered in the universe Among the escape pods, he was the only one who was successfully rescued.And also the most unfortunate of them all—the living are always more miserable than the dead.

Xu Xu, the only surviving member of the Dreadnought Fleet, lived with the last wish of the dead and tried his best to fight against the Zerg.At that time, it was the end of the war, and he had the honor to witness and participate in it, and became a member of the end of a war that lasted for more than 360 years.

Xu Xu in the early stage had lofty aspirations. Even if he was treated unfairly, even in the most critical juncture, he never despaired and was persevering.

In the mid-term, Xu Xu watched helplessly as his comrades died in the front line but could do nothing, and he was full of resentment towards those politicians in the rear who still did not forget to fight for power and profit in the face of crisis.He who lived alone in the world had no choice but to suppress his resentment because of the Zerg race, unwilling to give up the hope of victory for those dregs.

In the later stage, Xu Xu, after obtaining the position of marshal, immediately killed his enemies, and because of this, he angered the interest groups of the federation. He was kicked out of office within less than half a year, becoming the marshal with the shortest serving time in the history of the federation.Xu Xu, who has achieved his wish, has no nostalgia for the position of marshal. He bears the title of general and lives a life of a retired cadre.If he hadn't been assassinated by political enemies, he would probably have remained silent.However, after the first assassination, he began to plan how to unite the empire and take revenge.The former hero of the Federation unexpectedly stabbed the Federation backhand. After the incident, he even escaped from the interception of the Federation, settled in the territory of the Empire, and spent his later years in peace.

The plot of "Fearless" is roughly the same as Xu Xu's life. The biggest change is the period from his loss of the position of marshal to his death.

Xu Qingshu in Wen Ziyan's works is as courageous and resourceful as Xu Xu, with firm will.The difference is that Xu Qingshu is not as deep as Xu Xu, he is more energetic; Xu Qingshu is not as ruthless as Xu Xu, who is like a collection of resentful spirits, he puts down his resentment and forgives himself after his wish is fulfilled.

After all, Xu Qingshu is a protagonist on the big screen. In order to better meet the aesthetic taste and appreciation concept of contemporary people, these changes are necessary.Anyway, Wen Ziyan's "Fearless" is a legendary story that tends to be a "commercial film", rather than a real documentary of historical figures.

Xia Qiulai appreciates Xu Xu in history more, but at the same time feels sad for him. He hopes that Xu Qingshu's ending in "Fearless" is Xu Xu's ending, but unfortunately life has no ifs.

Xu Xu is a native of the Federation, but when he was born, the Federation was cooperating with the Empire, and he had never personally experienced the bloody storm of the hostility between these two behemoths.An orphan, he volunteered to join the army as an adult.Deducting the education he received in the orphanage, his experience in the army determined his future ideas.And Zhong Zhifan, who served as an instructor during this period, was undoubtedly the person who had the greatest influence on him.

In Xu Xu's mind, there is no concept that the empire and the federation are incompatible.That's why he was able to do the appalling thing of colluding with the empire to seize the federal territory.He settled in the Empire in his later years, but he felt that the Federation was not suitable for living, so he decided to move.

Xia Qiulai sighed for a while, then clicked on the playback platform, ready to watch the update of "Nine Heavens" - today is Li Ji's "death date"!

"Nine Days" has been played so far, and the plot is coming to an end.

The protagonist group led by Gongsun Qi gathered all the pieces of the Nine Heavens Tower that could be collected together, and the friends around him have grown, and their strength has greatly increased, and they have joined forces with all parties under the help of the friends, so there is a frontal anal Dahao The confidence of the dynasty.

Before facing the final big boss Emperor Wenrenjing, they still need to clear the wild monsters - several troops, the leader monster - several generals, the first small boss - Li Ji, the second small boss - Prince Wenren bright.

But today, they will completely solve Li Ji, the "treacherous concubine" who caused them a lot of trouble along the way.
