Chapter 987: The Mountain and the River Are Unharmed (Two in One)

“I cried many times while watching the 100-plus minutes.

The movie was shot beautifully, capturing the beautiful scenery of the country. Whether it was when he left his hometown thousands of miles away by boat, or when he first returned to his hometown and the river surface covered with colorful autumn leaves, they were actually all about peace.

After decades of war, the Chinese people finally gained the possibility and opportunity for peace, but this peace was hard-won.

On the contrary, it was 71 years ago that the Chinese People's Volunteers traveled thousands of miles to the battlefield to resist the US aggression and aid Korea. They turned their youth, blood and lives into an iron wall to protect the motherland.

When I saw this, I felt a sense of spiritual connection with the people in the movie. I was touched and thought of my childhood when I saw my father staring at a photo of soldiers marching.

Later I learned that this was a photo of the Second Battle of the Korean War. The marching soldiers were all from the Ninth Corps, crossing the Changjin Lake Bridge in North Korea. Many of them are buried in the land of North Korea.
Thank you to our ancestors for bringing us a peaceful era, so that we don’t have to worry about anything.”

Song Chongshi choked up and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes as he spoke, as if he had returned to the time when he still had his father.

These heartfelt words moved the entire audience deeply, and they applauded in unison. The applause was uniform and warm.

The reporters then turned their attention to the veterans who were still sobbing. They were wearing military uniforms, and the medals on their chests were still shining with the glory of the years.

Because of Song Chongshi's words, the few people seemed to have their thoughts returned to the glorious days of the past.

"I saw you stood up and saluted twice while watching the movie. You personally participated in the Battle of Chosin Reservoir. Can you talk about it briefly?" The reporter who came this time was from Sina Entertainment.

However, the official media were also behind, with their cameras pointed closely at them.

"Wang Jinrong, cavalry communications officer of the Political Department of the 27th Army of the Volunteer Army!"

The silver-haired veteran being interviewed immediately responded with a salute and spoke in a sonorous, loud voice.

"Let me introduce him." Li Mu added, "Grandpa Wang joined the army in 1948, and joined the Korean War in October 1950. He was awarded the second-class merit once and the third-class merit twice."

After listening to Li Mu's introduction, the audience behind him immediately stood in awe, because he was a true hero.

“I’m a rough guy and I don’t really know much about movies, but the filming of my teammates was very realistic. I often think of the past. With comrades like us, how could we not win?
It’s just that the real battlefield is far more cruel than the movies.

At that time, American enemy planes took turns bombing us, but we couldn't fight back. If we did, dozens of planes would come over in a few minutes and flatten the entire mountain.

We had a hard time in Korea. Just like in the movies, we were not only fighting the enemy, but also God.

The enemy cut off our supply lines, leaving us starving. We were only given one potato a day. The potatoes were frozen like ice cubes and were impossible to chew. We ended up eating tree bark and grass roots on the snow.

Wang Jinrong was reminiscing about the past years, and the scene was silent, as if everyone was still on that battlefield covered with ice and snow and filled with smoke.

Listening to Wang Jinrong's words, Li Mu was moved and seemed to suddenly think of something.

After the interview session came to an end, Li Mu also found Wang Xiaohui and Mao Yu.

"Director Li, this mission was successfully completed. We can see that the people are very satisfied and they speak very highly of it," Wang Xiaohui praised.

"Thank you Director Wang, this is what we filmmakers should do." Li Mu said modestly, and then put forward an idea.

"Director Wang, I have an idea."

"Oh, go ahead." Wang Xiaohui was also a little curious.

"I just listened to the stories of several elders at Changjin Lake, and I was deeply moved. Since the movie is about Changjin Lake and the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, on the first day of the movie's release, I think we should present a wreath to the Chinese People's Volunteer Army Martyrs Monument to commemorate the martyrs."

Li Mu was indeed thinking so at the moment.

The first day of release is theoretically a good day for publicity, but this is not the original intention of this movie, so what’s the harm in having one less day of publicity.

"How rare." Song Chongshi was sitting next to Wang Xiaohui, so naturally he heard what Li Mu said and was immediately relieved.

"Director Wang, I think Director Li's idea is good."

"Yes, I think so too." Wang Xiaohui was also very satisfied. "This is a lack of consideration on the part of the bureau. We should go to commemorate the martyrs. I agree with your idea. The bureau will also send a comrade to go with you. You will represent the entire crew to recite the "Sacrifice for the Martyrs of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea"."

"That place is in Shenyang. If you need my help, Director Li, come find me." Song Chongshi patted Li Mu on the shoulder, and then left the scene first accompanied by the soldiers.

After all, I'm old, and the movie is nearly three hours long, plus there are interviews everywhere, so I really can't stand it.

After the premiere, the audience left in an orderly manner, but everyone seemed very excited and discussed in low voices as they left.

Li Mu notified everyone that the screening day would be held at the Shenyang Martyrs Cemetery of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea.

"You can ask for leave if you have something, but I still hope that everyone will not be absent." Li Mu said softly.

"Director Li, let's all go." Wu Jing seemed to speak on behalf of the cast and creators.

Hearing this, Li Mu also nodded.

It was shortly after the premiere ended, and the media's articles had not yet been written. Although various news flashes had been released first, what attracted people were the comments from netizens who participated in the premiere on the hot searches.

"Words like 'tearful' or 'entirely enjoyable' are not enough to describe this movie. It's just that the plot draws you in. You are immersed in the plot and the three hours pass by in a flash!"

"This is probably the domestic war film with the biggest scenes, the most shocking scenes, and the most elaborate special effects that I have ever seen."

"This war scene is absolutely full of the best ammunition and footage! Every frame can be made into a poster! It's worth every ticket price."

"In three hours, not a single shot was wasted! Every face that the camera scanned was full of determination and determination to defend the country, just like the ending song sang, 'My motherland is behind me.' The Battle of Changjin Lake not only won the battle and won the enemy's admiration for the Chinese giant, but also won the world's respect for New China! What a blessing it is to be born in China!"

"."

Many netizens seemed to be inspired and wrote long film reviews. Some even fully described their feelings after watching the movie, from the story of the Seventh Company to the scenes in the movie, from the use of camera language to family and country feelings, from comradeship to analysis of human nature.

Finally, I came to the conclusion that "Changjin Lake" is really an excellent and educational film that is shocking. How lucky I am to be born in this era. The heroic efforts of our predecessors have made the country a safe and prosperous place.

This spontaneous film and tap water publicity, coupled with the original popularity and cast of "Changjin Lake", can be said to be a king bomb.

#Changjin Lake premiere; #Changjin Lake battle; #The ceiling of domestic war films; #Song Chongshi, the daughter of the commander-in-chief, praised the movie "Changjin Lake".
Hot search terms like these firmly occupy the top ten positions, and five of the top ten are related to Changjin Lake.

At night, the little bun was lying on the bed, while Li Mu was sitting beside him, with his cell phone standing on a stand, chatting on WeChat.

The person in the video is Liu Yifei. It can be seen that, like Xiao Baozi, she is lying on the bed, supporting her head with her hands, and talking and laughing with Xiao Baozi.

The little bun talked for a long time before it was Li Mu's turn.

The little bun went to find Ala with kicks and stomps, ready to play with it.

"How was today's premiere?" Liu Yifei asked with a sweet smile. "Very good, you should have seen the trending searches."

"Hehe, hot search is hot search, I want to hear you say it." Liu Yifei acted coquettishly. It was only because the little bun was not there, otherwise she would definitely complain.

"Where was the scene over there filmed?"

"I'll be back in a week, so we can just catch up on some of your remaining footage."

"Yeah, I remember, there seems to be a kissing scene, yeah, also..."

"Why, are you still thinking about this?" Liu Yifei couldn't help but find it funny. After all, they have been married for many years.

"How can it be the same?"

"You don't want to do a lot of NGs, do you?" Liu Yifei pretended to be scared.

"That's the kind of person I am."

"You are."

"Hey, you're acting so arrogant because I'm in the capital and not in Yunnan."

"Hehe, yeah, what can you do?"

"."

The two of them bickered like this and gradually fell asleep.

The next day, the popularity of "Changjin Lake" remained high. Media articles were published last night, as well as film critics' reviews.

Even some professional film critics' reviews are not as good as those written by the audience.

Because some viewers have a grandfather who was a soldier, many people also wrote about their grandfather's deeds.

Many unknown stories are thus revealed to the public, making the current intact mountains and rivers seem even more precious.

But the other movies in the National Day holiday will suffer.

Although the pre-sale performance of "My Fathers and Me" is far inferior to "The Battle at Lake Changjin", it is a mainstream movie that reflects the feelings of family and country. At least in this period when "The Battle at Lake Changjin" is destined to dominate, it can still get some benefits.

However, many youth and children's themed feature films and cartoons such as "Five Boys Jumping into the Water", "Pippi Longstocking and Luxixi's Canned Man", "Big Ear Tutu's Tyrannosaurus Rex in Action", and "Eagle Catches Chicken" are somewhat uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the latter has the support of children, so there is some hope.

There are still two days until the release on the 30th.

However, the closing ceremony of the Beijing Film Festival on the 29th sparked quite a bit of heated discussion that evening.

Because Jiang Wen and Gong Li, the CP of "Red Sorghum", stepped onto the podium together again after 34 years, and made a 34-year agreement on the stage, that is, they will come together to present the awards 34 years later. See you there.

This can't help but make people feel emotional.

Time flies, and at midnight on the 30th, "Changjin Lake" was officially released.

Early in the morning, Li Mu brought the main creators to the Shenyang Martyrs Cemetery of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea.

Shenyang was shrouded in a thin layer of mist in the early morning, and there was a slight chill in the autumn wind.

The Martyrs Cemetery of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea is solemn and dignified, with green pines and cypresses, flocks of pigeons flying low, and the surroundings are so quiet that only the occasional sound of wind blowing through the treetops can be heard.

The morning light shines on the monument, and the words on the monument appear particularly clear in the sunlight, as if telling stories that have never been forgotten.

Several producers, supervisors, directors and actors gathered here, and the General Administration also sent people here.

No one discussed the box office.

"Director Li, Director Wang has given the order. Please read it aloud." Li Mu originally wanted to ask someone from the General Administration, but it was obvious that Wang Xiaohui had already spoken in advance.

Li Mu was wearing a Zhongshan suit at the moment, standing in front of the monument. He was dressed in formal attire and had a solemn expression. His eyes swept across the towering monument in front of him, and then gently swept over each bunch of neatly arranged chrysanthemums. There was an unconcealable reverence and heaviness in his eyes.

There seemed to be a silent sense of oppression in the air, as if the weight of history had descended upon this place.

The wreath-laying ceremony began slowly with the uniform movements of the ceremonial soldiers under the monument.

The ribbon of the flower basket fluttered gently in the breeze, with the eight words "Salute to the Heroes of the Volunteer Army" inscribed on it, every stroke of which seemed to be engraved in everyone's heart.

Li Mu stood still, took a deep breath, and began to write the eulogy:

I have heard that defending the four barbarians is the teaching of the ancient sages; abandoning the old and establishing the new is the beginning of the conflict; a brave man with a virtuous heart, lives on a sharp blade; a resolute ghost hero, a man of steel and stone is shaken
The crew members stood behind Li Mu, each of them had a solemn expression, clasped their hands, and bowed their heads silently.

When the ceremony was over, the entire square was still quiet without any noise, only a group of pigeons flew across the sky, leaving behind the slight sound of their wings rustling in the wind.

Everyone stared at the monument, unable to look away for a long time.

Li Mu finally bowed deeply.

The wind became colder, but no one standing in the cemetery felt cold.

"On September 9, the first day of the film's release, the main creators of the "Changjin Lake" crew flew to the Shenyang Martyrs Cemetery of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea and presented a wreath to the Volunteer Army Martyrs Monument.

The film's producer, chief producer and director Li Mu read the "Sacrifice to the Martyrs of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea" on behalf of the crew in front of the monument to commemorate the martyrs and comfort the souls of the 19 volunteer soldiers who are buried here.

Media reports were released that day.

On this most important day for publicity, the crew did not carry out any publicity, but instead commemorated the heroes, which surprised the industry.

After all, this is a great opportunity to try to get a high box office for the movie, as the first day's box office will affect the subsequent screenings.
Just thinking about the exaggerated screening schedule and current box office of "Changjin Lake", I can't help but be speechless.

Because as of six o'clock in the afternoon, the single-day box office of "Changjin Lake" had exceeded 5 million.

You have to know that September 9th was a working day, and the data was collected as of 30 o'clock, and the movie has become a word-of-mouth harvester.

Many netizens said that "it would be a shame not to write a good review for this movie". For a time, there was an overwhelming amount of praise for "Changjin Lake" on the Internet, ticketing platforms, and WeChat Moments.

With this kind of data, the industry can no longer imagine what kind of box office explosion will be on October 1st.

At about 11 o'clock that evening, the first-day box office of "Changjin Lake" had exceeded 9 million yuan.
