Say origin
Many young people only know Harry Potter, and I want to remind them to remember history
A hundred years ago, the Revolution of 1911, the situation, during which heroes emerged, a series of historical events aimed at *** the world and saving the Chinese nation from danger appeared one after another. The epic masterpiece "Revolution of 1911" originated from the previous cooperation between Shanghai Film Factory and Jackie Chan. During the discussion, the two sides collided with the topic of "Xinhai". After some explanation, Jackie Chan immediately decided to devote himself to this film.
Speaking of the beginning of the film’s preparation, Jackie Chan bluntly said that he was in awe of history. "I believe that through this drama, more people will understand the 1911 Revolution and the pursuit of democracy by that generation. There is less and less mention of the 1911 Revolution, the Huanghuagang Uprising and even Huang Xing, and the new generation can easily forget history. Many of them only know Harry Potter and the Lord of the Rings. We make this kind of historical theme in the hope of reminding young people and hoping that they will reread history. So I put aside other things and make this movie!"
Say partner
The division of labor is different, Zhang Li takes the car and I drive
As a native of Hong Kong, Jackie Chan confessed that he was "very unfamiliar with the centenary of 1911, and I don’t understand many things". The addition of director Zhang Li has greatly increased the confidence of director Jackie Chan, and the two are co-directing the film.
How is the division of labor between the two? Jackie Chan revealed that in the process of early conception and specific shooting, he has the voice over and dominance on historical issues to his partner Zhang Li, and he is responsible for co-ordination and overall operation. Regarding the first collaboration between the two directors, they were tacit and seamless. Jackie Chan said figuratively: "He drove, I took the car, and he drove as he said. At the fork in the road, I said I should take this line, so take this line."
