In fact, as long as any movie is a hit, there will inevitably be similar moral kidnappings.
Why has keyboard warrior become a derogatory term?
Just because of the existence of these people!
Of course, overall "Changjin Lake" still received much more positive impact than negative feedback.
At least, this movie has allowed many viewers to know more about the meaning behind the war to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, and let more people understand that today's peace is hard-won.
It also allows more people to spontaneously understand and deepen their knowledge of this period of history.
After the release of "Changjin Lake", the most frequently mentioned feelings were moved, distressed and shocked!
Let more people understand the sentence: "There are no quiet years, but there are people who are carrying the burden for us!"
Many people have also analyzed the reason why "Changjin Lake" has touched so many people.
Du Xianghai, Li Yi's favorite film critic, wrote a film review specifically for this.
"Home is country, and country is home. "Changjin Lake" became a big hit, in my opinion, largely because this movie clearly explains the relationship between home and country!
If you taste it carefully, I believe it is not difficult for everyone to find that the stories of all the soldiers in the film revolve around "home".
The beginning of the film shows Wu Qianli taking his eldest brother Wu Baili's ashes home to visit relatives. Returning to one's roots after falling leaves has been a sentiment of Chinese people since ancient times. Therefore, after his eldest brother died on the battlefield, Wu Qianli traveled thousands of miles to bring his ashes back to his hometown. Firstly, it is to let the eldest brother return to his roots and rest in peace; secondly, it is also to give an explanation to the old parents at home.
When Wu Qianli walked into the house, the first thing he did was kneel down and kowtow to his parents. This is also a traditional family etiquette in our country. The younger generation must salute the elders. This is a Chinese-style family, a Chinese-style home.
The so-called kneeling to the sky, kneeling to the ground and kneeling to your parents! That’s probably true!
Although he was a company commander and a soldier in the army, when he returned home, Wu Qianli was his younger brother, his older brother, and his son, so he had the responsibility to bring his older brother back. After bringing his brother's ashes back to kowtow to his parents, he said that he failed to take good care of his brother. This was his responsibility as a younger brother, but he failed to do it, and he owed it to his parents.
After the death of his brother Wu Baili, he became the eldest son of the family, the strongest labor force in the family, and the backbone of the family. He said that I would build a house for the family, and he would give his allowance to his parents, and he promised to Wu Wanli married a wife, which is the traditional Chinese family concept.
Not only Wu Qianli, Mei Sheng, but Zhou Guo is indeed very suitable to play such a city soldier. Zhao Mengsheng in "Garland Under the Mountain" back then is now the instructor Mei Sheng.
Let’s look at the instructor Mei Sheng. In fact, he has always had the concept of “family”.
Although he was born in Zhonghai and was a man of culture, when he returned home from the team, his wife rode a hundred miles on her bicycle to see him off.
He was always in the army and looked at his daughter's photo during the war. After the battle, the photo could not be found. He would go crazy looking for the photo in the ruins because his daughter's photo represented his attachment to his family. My thoughts are also the spiritual pillar that supports me in fighting. When he found the photo of his daughter, he started crying because he missed his home.
Thunder God, Thunder God has no family, because everyone in his family is dead. Wu Qianli promised to marry him a wife in the future and let him build a home in their hometown.
At that time, the War of Liberation had just been won, and all the soldiers wanted to be discharged and return to their fields. They all wanted to go home. They all had a simple dream of returning home to farm, marry a wife, and honor their parents.
Why should Wu Qianli’s return home be the first scene, followed immediately by the expedition? I think this arrangement is very clever, because returning home and going out for the country together are the home and country.
When we talk about resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, we must add protecting our country and our homeland. This is the reason why the volunteers volunteered to go to Korea to fight this war.
The boats, the lake, the Great Wall, and the colorful autumn leaves are just to contrast with the war behind. The ultimate purpose of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea is to protect our country.
Having said this, you may be wondering. Everyone is thinking about their own little home, but what about the country?
In fact, this is the best thing about this movie in my opinion.
Because when the war came, the narrative method of family in the movie was subtly changing, because at this time everyone knew that the country would be destroyed if the family was destroyed. The Chinese concept of family and country is a tradition in the history of Chinese films.
The concept of family and country is the most important feature of Chinese film history over the past 100 years. "Changjin Lake" has reached an unprecedented level in the narrative of the country.
Why is it said to have reached an unprecedented height?
This can be known from the mobilization speeches given by the officers and men of the Ninth Corps before the war.
He said this when mobilizing before the war: "We have divided the land and houses, but the American imperialists want to take them away."
Although a soldier's foul language was used to mobilize before the war, once this matter was mentioned, thousands of families across the country were linked to the country.
At that moment, all the soldiers were full of fighting spirit!
Because they all know that without the country, where would their home be?
Precisely because of the state, thousands of families have land, houses, and the resources and capital to survive. Now if the country is gone, the family has lost its land and its house, then naturally it will be gone.
Therefore, they are the real protectors of the country!
The most classic line said by Mei Sheng is: "If we don't fight this battle, our next generation will."
The next generation is not only the hope of the family, but also the hope of the country. Mei Sheng’s words actually connect the family and the country.
At this time, the relationship between country and family is so vivid, the logic is so simple, and the connection is so close.
Thousands of great People’s Volunteer Army soldiers embarked on an expedition with no end in sight for the sake of their country and their loved ones. It is these ancestors who used their lives and blood to bring us the peaceful and prosperous age we have today.
On the battlefield, the word home was mentioned many times.
Wu Qianli said that after returning home, he would build a house and give Lei Gongan a home.
Mei Sheng said that he must teach his daughter mathematics well this time when he goes back.
When Lei Gong died, Wu Qianli said again: Win the battle and take them home.
In fact, each of them wanted to go home, which also explained why they volunteered to go to North Korea to fight this war.
The purpose is to create a peace, a peace that allows the family to exist.
Finally, apply the lyrics of a song:
One jade mouth in China, one tile roof to start a family
They say that the country is very big, but it is actually one family.
Fill the country with one heart and support the home with one hand
The family is the smallest and the country is tens of thousands of families
In the kingdom of the world, in the home of heaven and earth
Only a strong country will have a rich family...
May our motherland prosper!
The heroes and martyrs of the People’s Volunteer Army will live forever! "
