The first 34 minutes of the movie are filled with people dying, all of them Chinese. You know why this movie is being shown today, because this year marks the 100th anniversary of the Great Patriotic War.
It was precisely because of the Patriotic War a hundred years ago that the Chinese people won the final victory and we have the China we have today.
The film tells the story of one of the most important battles.
The enemy mobilized more than 100,000 troops, more than 300 artillery pieces, more than 170 tanks, and dispatched more than 3,000 aircraft to launch a fierce attack on the Chinese position of about 3.7 square kilometers defended by only two companies. The Chinese defensive forces put up a tenacious resistance, and the position was lost and regained many times.
Both sides then continued to increase troops and heavy weapons to the positions, turning the situation into a local battle.
Only by defending this place can China prevent the enemy from completing the encirclement.
The fierce battle lasted for 43 days. Chinese soldiers fought for positions with the enemy 59 times and repelled more than 900 enemy charges.
In the end, China held its ground and won the victory.
When the ending song sounded, the entire National Theater burst into applause, and then an octogenarian in a wheelchair was pushed onto the stage.
Many filmmakers can recognize him without any introduction. This is Chen Linpin, the director of the movie just mentioned. He is also the first generation of directors in China. He was only in his early twenties when he shot this movie, and now he is over a hundred years old.
The host gave a detailed introduction to the old man's life, and then presented this year's Special Achievement Award to the old man. You should know that this award is usually given to deceased filmmakers, and there are actually very few of them who are still alive.
Naturally, everyone had no objection to this and gave warm applause.
Guo Liangcai also applauded and sighed, "If I could make movies for the rest of my life like Director Chen and then win this award, my life would be worthwhile."
Huang Peng said with a smile: "Come on, Brother Guo, at your age, you are still far from this award. You should think about when you can win the Best Director Award at the Golden Man Film Awards first."
"Let's work hard together, let's work hard together." Under normal circumstances, Guo Liangcai would be too embarrassed to express his desire for the Best Director Award, but as a director, which one wouldn't want to win this award?
I watched such an exciting movie today and was so excited that I dared to say such words. I also made an agreement with Yan Zi, Peng Yudian and others around me that we must win the Best Director Award, Best Film Award and Best Actor and Actress Award together in the future.
