In continuation of the previous news, using the information provided by a visitor to our site, I am publishing a trailer for a Chinese film “My Kingdom” (My Kingdom) and a short video with footage from the set.
Just in case, let me remind those who don’t know what this is about, a brief description of the plot:
The 19th century is coming to an end. The Prince Regent of the collapsing Qing Dynasty orders the mass execution of the entire Meng clan. Before being beheaded in a crowded Beijing market, the leader of the Meng clan vows that his family will avenge this travesty of justice. While awaiting death, a five-year-old boy, Erkui, from the Meng clan, bravely sings an aria. The power and purity of his voice moved the audience, including the opera star master Yu Shenging and his seven-year-old student Guan Yilong. Touched by Master Yu, he saves the boy, and two orphans, Yilong and Erkui, become sworn brothers.
Years have passed. Master Yu wins the coveted gold plaque of “Dausheng”, a reward from the Prince Regent, but then loses it in a fight with his main rival, Master Yue Jiantian. Banished from the stage after losing his prize, Master Yu spends his time teaching Yilong and Erkui Peking Opera and martial arts and improving their skills. When the boys become men, they head to Shanghai for a rematch and reclaim the plaque from Master Yue.
Upon arriving in Shanghai, they quickly defeat Master Yue, returning not only the plaque, but also becoming the new masters of the Yue Opera Troupe. Almost overnight, they become a sensation on the Shanghai opera stage along with Master Yue's protégé and mistress, the beautiful actress Xi Mulan. But soon their shared past catches up with them, and all three find themselves in a tangled web of love, passion, deception and betrayal. Ultimately it all ends in tragedy.

You're not the only one. It worked fine on the source. The quality is lousy, really. Go to the source and look there.
Oops. I screwed up the code. Already fixed it.
But in my trailer there is only sound, but no pictures.
Is it my problem or was it filled in crookedly?
there was no need to write about the tragedy at the end (spoiler....
Few people can be surprised by such tragedies in the endings of recent Chinese historical films... I personally am enraged by the almost constant deaths of the main characters.
Offtopic: Korean Blades of Blood came out with single-voice dubbing.
