my dog ​​my king

The wind was a bit strong, blowing on the wild grass, bringing up waves of bleak waves.

Director Yan Shougang narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was no joy or anger on his elegant face.

Secretly observing his crew members, they couldn't help but tense up even more. This great director, who is famous for his strict requirements and obsessed with the real to the extreme artistic appeal, has always been very difficult to serve.

The place where they are located is a relatively open field with some sparse and low trees growing. The side of the trees has long been handled by the skillful hands of the props team. Half of the loess rammed path winds and extends to distance.

It has the shabby and desolate atmosphere of the 30s and [-]s, even though there is a rather modern military dog ​​training base not far behind them.

It is not without reason that the director chose this place to shoot exterior scenes.For one thing, for war movies, the venue is more open, and it is easier to shoot and explode.Secondly, the real protagonists of the movie are those four-legged animals, backed by the military dog ​​base, what kind of dog can you want to shoot and what action can't do it?

Three times, Director Yan and the elders of the person in charge of the base are family friends, and this young and handsome officer with a deep background is said to be fascinated by the female lead in the play, so most of the scenes will be in other people's military affairs. Recording outside the base is also a matter of course.

Of course, these gossips have nothing to do with the general staff.

In other words, those who can stand here, from scene notes to photography, from costumes to props, are all composed of candidates appointed by great directors, and none of them are outstanding in the industry, which can be regarded as quite a gorgeous team.

Everyone knows that Director Yan is holding back his energy. This time, he definitely wants to win an international award.

Everything must be perfect, and everything must achieve the most intense artistic effect.

Today's scene is very important, and it is an extremely critical tear-jerking point in the movie.

The plot is probably that in order to defeat the hero, the crazy enemy tied the female number one to the side of the explosive bag, wanting him to watch his woman be blown to pieces. At this time, the loyal military dog ​​rushed up and picked up The explosive kit ran to the wilderness and died heroically instead of the female number one.

The most impactful shot, of course, is the moment when the military dog ​​was blown to death.

Yan Shougang wanted the audience to feel unspeakable grief and shock as if they were hit on the chest with a heavy hammer when they saw this scene.

But after taking several shots over and over again, the more he watched, the more dissatisfied he became, his face gradually became gloomy, and finally he could almost drip water.

The others didn't dare to take a breath, the military dog ​​was a little confused by the toss, and turned to look at his trainer, hoping to get some clearer instructions.

The poor little soldier was sweating profusely, but he still couldn't help gesturing to encourage the military dog, telling it that he had behaved very well.

In the quiet amber eyes of the military dog, there was a warm color, it straightened its back slightly, and wagged its tail slightly.

"boom!"

Yan Shougang suddenly kicked over the stool, came striding like the wind, and yelled at the soldiers: "Are you good at training dogs, and will you cooperate with us in our work? After running so many times, which time did you look like you?" ? If you and your stupid dog waste film like this again, get the hell out of here and replace it with a clever one!"

Director Yan Da is of medium stature and has a handsome face. He looks more like a university professor when he doesn't speak, but his lung capacity is truly earth-shattering.

The little soldier was stunned by the scolding, and after realizing the meaning of the words, his face flushed suddenly, against the sweat from his temples, he looked innocent and pitiful.

"You...you can't!" He burst out in a daze.

Director Yan paused, raised his head, and stared at him coldly, "What did you say?"

The little soldier wants to say, it doesn't matter if you scold me, it doesn't matter how you scold me, but you can't scold my dog, it is very obedient, really very obedient.

For the sake of looking good in the camera, the actions it does may cause it to be injured or even disabled. As a military dog, the disability caused by non-combat does not mean glory, but it still obeys the command and does it obediently. any reluctance.

Such a smart and excellent military dog, why call it a stupid dog?

The soldier opened his mouth, and the urge to argue for the dog was clogged in his chest, but this man was the director who was ordered by the head of the base, Colonel Duan, to fully cooperate, and he must resolutely carry out his instructions just like his superiors.

The little soldier closed his eyes and didn't say anything else, but said in a muffled voice, "I came because of an order."

"Then obey the order!" Yan Shougang yelled violently, and pointed at the loess road in front of him, "This dog will be sacrificed, do you understand the sacrifice? Run, gallop along the loess road, like a row The lightning that pierced the sky, followed by the tragic fire, and the explosion of flesh and blood!"

The great director's voice was fierce and passionate, and his eyes were flickering with the madness of the relentless pursuit of art, "It must be real, it must be real, it must be incomparably shocking, it is not such a tense wandering!"

It didn't wander around.

The little soldier was full of dissatisfaction, but the elder brother had already rushed very well. Not to mention a dog of his age, even a mature military dog. Few of them could execute this kind of running method that required both the beauty of the camera and the speed.

Moreover, what is real, and how real is it? His eldest brother is the best military dog, and he doesn't know how to run better than a human like you?

Yan Shugang turned around and pointed at the pyrotechnician beside him, "Go, add more material to the dog. After so many years of work, don't you know how to make the flames of the explosion? Are you really setting off fireworks?"

The pyrotechnician agreed, and hurried to the military dog.

The military dog ​​has been paying attention to the movement here. As early as when he saw the trainer being scolded, his warm pupils turned dark instantly, and a dark cold light appeared inside.

At this time, someone dared to touch it without the company of the trainer, even if the person had no intention of attacking, so what?

Immediately, the military dog ​​tensed up and let out a low whimper. The pyrotechnician was caught off guard, and suddenly looked directly at the dog's black eyes. .

"Are you stupid? What are you dawdling about?" Director Yan followed, furious, and the military dog ​​averted his gaze and fixedly looked at him. In an instant, Yan Shougang was like a frog being stared at by a snake, daring not to move.

The evil aura on military dogs is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. When they are trained, they are required to cause the greatest damage to the enemy. The direction that their murderous eyes are aimed at is their locked target. .

Move like a thunder, kill with one blow.

This is especially true for this military dog. Its military achievements and medals are like a mountain that can only be looked up to. Its existence itself is an immortal legend.

The little soldier ran over and gently stroked its blue back, with burning pride in his heart. Look, this is called a military dog.

He lowered his head and put it next to the dog's prickly ears, softly coaxing: "Brother, relax, sit down."

The dog restrained his killing intent and sat upright, as calm as a mountain.

"This is a military dog, please approach it only when I guide you," the soldier took a deep breath, straightened his back, stepped forward, and said to Yan Jiaogang in a neutral manner, "Also, I don't agree with you increasing the amount of gunpowder. would burn it."

At this time, Yan Shougang's heartbeat resumed. His face was pale, as if he felt a little ashamed, his eyes were full of embarrassment, and the corner of his mouth curved into a sneer, "This is a dedication to art. Do you understand art? A soldier Even if you haven't read a few books, you should be able to understand the most basic principles of life, have you seen Zhu Lanyin?"

With his finger, he pointed to the female number one who was tied up and lying on the ground like a set, "The queen of tens of millions of dollars has been lying on the mud for more than an hour. Has she ever complained? If people are like this, they will dedicate their lives to art." , what’s wrong with the dog, don’t think that your dog Jingui is the only one!”

After the soldier glanced at Zhu Tian, ​​he was not good at talking, he couldn't argue with people at all, and he didn't know what to say at this time. Straining his neck, he disagreed.

Yan Zhigang turned around and left with disgust on his face, he didn't bother to pay attention to the little soldier any more, and made a phone call to Senior Colonel Duan.

When Senior Colonel Duan heard it, because his people and dogs were disobedient, Zhu Lanyin was allowed to lie on the cold ground for so long. She is a delicate, slender and weak woman. What if she gets sick?

Immediately, without saying a word, he rushed directly from the base, kicked the little soldier aside, grabbed the military dog ​​by the back of the neck, and stuffed it in front of the pyrotechnician, "Whatever you want, I have the final say here , and turned against you!"

The military dog ​​gritted its teeth. It saw the bars and stars on this man's shoulders, and understood that even the trainer had to listen to him. This is the army. In many cases, rank is everything, and the trainer can't do anything.

The dog endured it, lowered its head, restrained its own breath as it did during a difficult ambush mission, and obediently let Senior Colonel Duan hold it in his hand, although, at this time, it only needed to tilt its head slightly, and it could take the The lifeblood of the life-or-death bastard was bitten off.

Yan Shougang looked at this scene, but he didn't appreciate it anymore. He waved his hand and said lazily: "Forget it, don't do it, it's useless to shoot unreal shots."

Colonel Duan was holding the dog's neck with one hand, the strong muscles on his arms were bulging, and he looked very good against the straight military uniform.

He was showing off in front of Zhu Lanyin intentionally or unintentionally, when he heard this, he hurriedly said enthusiastically: "Don't, Uncle Yan, let's shoot, if you need anything, I will arrange it for you."

Yan Shougang gave the dog a disgusted look, and said slowly: "You said it, I can make a request."

"Just mention it."

"Actually, I don't think it's difficult for you to do it, but for the sake of art..." He said softly, "I'm afraid this lens should be really explosive."

Colonel Duan was taken aback for a moment, the military dog ​​in his hand turned its ears, and slightly opened its dark eyes.

For some reason, Yan Shougang's heart suddenly turned away subconsciously.

He closed his eyes and sighed wearily, "If there was another way, I wouldn't say that, you know, I'm also a person who loves dogs. It's just... otherwise, there is no way to achieve that The tension of the tragedy, so I endured the pain and thought about it, and felt that it was worthwhile to do so."

At this time, Yan Shougang frowned Wenxiu's eyebrows, and his handsome face was full of unresolvable regret and anxiety, which made him look full of unspeakable charm.

Almost at the same time, Zhu Lanyin on the ground let out a low groan, her disheveled posture couldn't conceal her gorgeous national color.

Although she was tied up, she still struggled to raise her head and glanced at Senior Colonel Duan. There was a hint of bitterness, persistence, and a faint pleading in her eyes.

Colonel Duan understood that none of these two people would give up if they were not perfect. Their rigorous work attitude and persistent pursuit of art cannot but move people.

In particular, Zhu Lanyin was still looking for help, she must have worked very hard and felt very uncomfortable to show such eyes.

She had to finish filming the scene quickly and satisfy Yan Xuegang before she could be relieved, and the only person who could do this was him.

Immediately, Colonel Duan didn't hesitate any longer, "Okay, this one is a retired military dog ​​anyway."

No matter what kind of brilliance it once had, how many illustrious military exploits it has made, and how many legends it has created to make the enemy fearful, now, it is old and retired, isn't it?

It doesn't make any difference whether it dies of natural old age or bombing. After retiring, the state has raised it for so many years, and it has done its best. Moreover, it has lived too long. The years of eating for the elderly are as long as the time of service.

Besides, in the end, to create a glorious heroic image on the screen as the end of a military dog's life, does it live up to its title of a hero dog? It is always older than a hero, old and sick, like a dog Garbage dead good.

Yan Shougang thanked him sincerely, and showed a slightly regretful smile to the military dog. The pursuit of the pinnacle of beauty is always accompanied by sacrifice, and this sacrifice is worth it.

At that moment, the pyrotechnician and the props handed over the newly prepared explosive package. Colonel Duan called the little soldier in the distance and asked him to command the military dog ​​to start running.

"Captain, the elder brother is very good. In fact, the previous few times, it also ran very well."

"Well, just run like that." Colonel Duan glanced at him, "Why do you call him big brother?"

The little soldier smiled embarrassingly, "It started missions at the age of one, and it retired at the age of 15. It is already 28 years old this year. Regardless of its military service or age, it is longer than most soldiers. Of course it is our big brother."

The lifespan of a dog is generally ten to 15 years, and that of a military dog ​​is even shorter. A 28-year-old dog is equivalent to a human over 200 years old. It cannot but be said to be a miracle.

In particular, this dog's physical condition is not inferior to that of a mature dog at all. It can run and jump, and its strong muscles are hidden under the wolf-blue fur like mercury pouring down the ground. It is mighty and beautiful.

If it is not the most beautiful dog, it will not be its turn to act in the movie.

Colonel Duan didn't come from a dog training class. He became the person in charge of this base because his family wanted him to be plated with gold, but even with his limited professional knowledge, he knew that this dog was really amazing.

I heard that the longest-lived dog in the world has lived for 29 years. If this dog can stay in the next year, maybe it can also enter the Guinness Book of World Records.

Colonel Duan laughed at himself, forget it, foreigners' stuff is not interesting, so let's just leave it at that.

He flicked the little soldier's head, "Stinky boy, you dare to talk back to Director Yan. Fortunately, I am your chief, and I can help you with everything. Okay, let it go, Director Yan said, and finally take a picture , good or bad."

As soon as the little soldier heard that he could get out of the sea of ​​suffering, he immediately became happy. He bent down and put his arms around the dog's neck, and whispered, "Brother, do you hear me? Hold on, this is the end of the filming. I'll give you two big pieces of cooked beef later. You can also add a piece of toffee, not too much, just one piece, you know?"

The military dog ​​quietly looked at the ignorant little soldier, with a warm amber light in its pupils. It raised its head, and gently touched the little soldier's nose with its pointed mouth.

It was a touch of reluctance, a touch of attachment.

The little soldier was very surprised. This dog with great military exploits and a long life span has never been close to him.It listens to him because he is the trainer, and it is an excellent military dog, that's all, the intimate behavior like just now is unique.

He knew that he was not its owner. The owner of the hero dog should naturally be a hero who made outstanding achievements on the border front 20 years ago.

More than 20 years have passed, and I don't know where the hero is now. He always feels that the eldest brother is lonely, very, very lonely.

However, that doesn't matter, he will accompany it, he is a first-class non-commissioned officer, he can still be a soldier for many years, he will accompany his eldest brother, and will always be with him, he thinks, this is a great honor.

"Good brother, be good, go and run one last time, and then we can go home."

The military dog ​​silently glanced at the explosive pack beside him, maintained a serious squatting posture, neither barking nor moving.

The entire crew was waiting for it, and gradually became impatient.

Colonel Duan frowned, "What's going on, why didn't you obey the command?"

The little soldier's back was straight, he stretched his right arm forward, and gave the command to charge, his posture was as standard as a textbook.

However, the military dog ​​just looked at him quietly, motionless.

"Captain," said the little soldier with sweat on his forehead, "how about...don't do it, brother...it doesn't like it..."

"Not happy, what is not happy?" Senior Colonel Duan was irritated all of a sudden, Yan Shougang and Zhu Lanyin were watching, at this moment, how could he go back on his word, how could he say no to it?

"Don't go up if you don't like it? Are you afraid to go forward, disobeying orders, or a military dog? Are there minefields in front, machine gun holes in front, or enemy tanks in front? When performing tasks, it can also be unwilling No? What the hell is such a cowardly dog ​​called a hero dog!"

The squatting dog suddenly straightened its ears. It raised its head and looked coldly at the roaring Colonel Duan.The dark, invisible murderous intent instantly locked the handsome officer's heart, making him unable to utter a single word.

The military dog ​​stood up slowly, heroic, mighty, and majestic.

The huge dog proudly moved its four strong legs, and swept its tail indifferently in the cold wind.

It has lived up to now and has experienced too many enemies, dangers, trainers and officers.

What it respects is not which human being feeds it, nor what task or order the other party assigns.

What it respects is its identity and its profession.

And, the dignity and glory that come from it.

It is a military dog.

The cyan figure was blown out like the wind, like thunder, like lightning, no matter the little soldier, Senior Colonel Duan, Director Yan or the female star, they were all stunned.

I have never seen such a fierce and mighty figure with a fighting spirit, and the rhythm of the four claws falling, as if the drums resounded through the world, hitting people's hearts hard.

Its wolf-blue fur, in the cold sunlight, surged with the splendor of a sea of ​​silver.

Such speed, such power, such indescribable magnificence.

Then, an earth-shattering explosion wiped everything out.

The little soldier stared blankly, not understanding what he saw.

Big brother, where's big brother?

What was that just now...

Fire light... sound, but, where is the big brother?

Where is the big brother!

A wail that didn't sound like a human voice suddenly burst out of the little soldier's throat. He screamed desperately, and ran to the explosion site like crazy.

He opened his hands, desperately grabbing, desperately grabbing, but the power of the explosives was too powerful, and those powdery objects that had been blown up into a mess could not even be called wreckage.

Colonel Duan rushed over, hugged the little soldier tightly, and pressed his head against his generous chest.

The little soldier was already coughing up blood from crying.

He is not a dog trainer, so he can't understand how these people love their dogs like their lives. However, he feels that no matter how sad they are, it will be fine after a while. Dogs are just dogs after all, and people always have to look forward.

Yan Shougang tightly hugged the camera, watched the replay over and over again, his eyes radiated intense joy and madness, "Okay, okay, great, this is exactly what I want!"

Maybe the cry of the little soldier was too ear-piercing, he raised his head, glanced over there, and smiled tolerantly, "The movie will definitely be a success... even the dog handler, seeing such a real scene , all crying to death."

The crew successfully completed the task and evacuated the base.

The military dog ​​was blown to nothing, and even the burial was impossible. The little soldier, alone, sprinkled layer after layer of lavender and yellow wild mountain petals on the site of the explosion.

Under the night, with the wind blowing gently, the petals are tumbling, like a surging silver ocean.

The moonlight here is particularly bright.
