The movie Volunteer: the Battle of Survival is released nationwide today. In order to tell the story of the Chinese people's volunteers well, the costume group alone in the film has nearly 100 staff members who have prepared a total of about 50,000 jin of volunteer uniforms. In order to ensure authenticity, these uniforms are also worn out to varying degrees according to the setting and progress of the story, and it takes seven or eight steps to complete one by one. At most, there are more than 170people in the props group, with a total of four props libraries, totaling about 11000 square meters, with more than 100000 props. In this film, many of the props used by Li Xiao (Zhang Zifeng), such as the propaganda microphone and the kettle used by the 63rd Army, are "antiques" collected from the Internet, and even emptied the old objects on the platform at one time. In the view of the creators, old things have temperature, and they appear in the film, not only to add points to the authenticity, but also to pay homage to that period of history.

For the Tieyuan blocking battle that the film focuses on, the creators have made a lot of "hard work". The film has built and processed more than 20 shooting sites, with a total area of more than one million, of which Tieyuan Battlefield occupies more than 200,000 square meters, which is the largest of all shooting venues. It took two or three months to build Tieyuan Battlefield, and it is still being adjusted and modified during the shooting process. As a blockade, most of Tiehara's battles take place in the trenches, so the trench scene is very important to the whole film, with some twists and turns and changes to meet the shooting needs of hand-to-hand combat and encounters; it should also be highly appropriate, so that the audience can see the scenes of common resistance inside and outside the trenches, eventually involving more than 14 types of trenches and fortifications. In the play, the scene of digging trenches by the 188th Division of the 63rd Army was also very shocking, using more than 2000 group performances, showing the volunteer soldiers' concerted efforts and racing against time incisively and vividly. In addition, the film has also produced 21 tanks, of which more than 10 are equipped with power systems. when they drive together to the Tieyuan battlefield, they can not only bring visual shock to the audience, but also give people a sense of what kind of battle the 63rd Army is facing. Under the gap in the firepower of the enemy's strength and our weakness, they held their feet with tenacity and tenacity.

the growth and transformation of the war group like tear gas and moving gunfire hit the heart directly

Director Chen Kaige once revealed that the story of the second part pays more attention to the delicate emotions of the individual than the first film of the volunteers. In the Volunteer: the Battle of Survival, the reunion of the Li family is an important emotional fulcrum for the whole film. Li Xiang (Zhu Yilong) is not only a soldier, but also a son and brother, although he spends little time with his family, but this affection worries him and gives him the spiritual strength to swear to death. Li Moyin (Xin Baiqing) is strict to his son and gentle to his daughter, which also makes the image of this military father more three-dimensional and lovely, and his implicit but deep expression on the battlefield makes people particularly moved. In Li Xiao's opinion, "where the man is, home is there." when she came to North Korea to look for her father and brother, she learned the meaning of her father and brother's persistence in many battles, and made herself a real soldier. The family still revealed that they were not familiar with and did not understand before going to the battlefield, but after the first War of Tieyuan, their hearts were tightly together. A key and a piece of candy is the emotional sustenance of this small family, and it is also a microcosm of all the volunteer soldiers' deep attachment to their home and country.

Wu Benzheng (Zhu Yawen), the military industry expert who questioned "Why do you think we can win" in the first book, also found his answer on the battlefield in North Korea, walking among the soldiers, and he carefully wrote down the direction of the improvement of weapons. He also witnessed the heroic moment when the volunteers relied on their will to fight the enemy. Sun Xing (Chen Feiyu) suffered from post-war stress trauma after Songgufeng World War I. with the help of everyone, he finally remembered what happened on Songgufeng. In the end, Sun Xing joined the 63rd Army to defend Tieyuan, continuing their story with the wishes and mission of those who sacrificed their comrades-in-arms. In addition, Peng Dehuai (Wang Yanhui) trots to give Li Moyin a moment of warmth; Zhao Annan (Xiao Yang) finally shows the calmness and alertness of a veteran; Yang Sandi (Zhang Youhao) dares to face the transformation of sacrifice; Zhang Xiaoheng (ou Hao) is stubborn to protect Wu Benzheng. Everyone's emotions and experiences are very unique and vivid, forming a moving picture of the war, as director Chen Kaige once said: "when fate and history blend together, it can produce a very great explosive power."

the towering national feelings of the heroic Iron Army in the past resonated with the whole people

As the second part of the Volunteer trilogy, the storyline of volunteers: the Battle of Survival comes to the third to fifth battles and focuses on the Tiehara blockade in the fifth campaign. In May 1951, the main forces of various regiments of the Chinese people's volunteers began to move northward and rest and recuperate. Tieyuan, as a transportation hub between North and South Korea at that time, was a strategic place for volunteers to transfer materials and contain their opponents' attacks. in order to prevent the "United Nations Army" from counterattacking, the 63rd Army was ordered to be stationed in Tieyuan in the face of danger. At the same time, the terrain of Tieyuan is a flat plain, which is very suitable for the mechanized march of the "United Nations", while the volunteers are far inferior to the enemy in terms of artillery fire and personnel.

In the face of the powerful offensive of nearly 50,000 men from four enemy divisions and coordinated artillery, the 63rd Army did not flinch, relying on wisdom and bravery to fight the enemy for 12 days and nights. The preview of "defeating the enemy with wisdom" released today reveals how the volunteers fought nearly twice the enemy with 25000 men under the gap between the enemy's strong firepower and our weak firepower. In the face of the surging tanks, the 63rd Army lured them deep into the trenches and wiped them out with explosives and gasoline cans arranged in advance; the 189th Division divided its forces into hundreds of small combat units and stuck them in positions like nails one by one, so that the enemy troops could not find the focus of attack; in addition, the "United Nations forces" were overwhelmed by tactics such as unprepared surprise attacks in the middle of the night and taking the initiative to retreat to find breakthroughs. The highly targeted tactics of the 63rd Army withstood the enemy's attack, built an unbreakable "Iron Great Wall" on Tieyuan, bought time and space for the rest and recuperation of hundreds of thousands of volunteer troops in the rear, and disintegrated the arrogant attempt of the "United Nations Force" to destroy the main force of the volunteers. This war played a very important role in the whole situation of the War to resist US aggression and Aid Korea. After the end of the Tieyuan War, the war entered the stage of peace talks, so this battle can be called a "war of survival."

In Tieyuan in 1951, the cut-off supply lines and the disparity in force failed to scare off the volunteers. The life-and-death struggle in the trenches made the "United Nations Army" see the tenacity and unyielding of the Chinese people, and this spirit also melted into the blood of all the Chinese people and flowed so far. In the later history, we have also encountered several technological blockades, and the stubborn Chinese have never been defeated, and the world has made breakthroughs and progress so that the world no longer dares to underestimate China. It is the National Day, "volunteers: the Battle of Survival" will bring the audience back to that extraordinary period of time, looking at the past and thinking about the present, and rekindling the national feelings of the people all over the country.

**panoramic account of the War of the Founding of the Nation, veterans of the volunteers felt "in person" after watching the movie.

The "volunteers" trilogy unfolds the story along the time line. from the decision to fight in North Korea to the final end of the war, the panoramic and multi-dimensional War to resist US aggression and Aid Korea is also the first time to fully present the beginning and end of the nation-building war to the audience on the big screen in this way. In response, director Chen Kaige said with emotion: "as a film director, when I keep studying the history of volunteers fighting abroad, what I fear most is that these people will be forgotten. This is also the biggest motivation for me to make the Volunteer trilogy. All the honor goes to the Chinese people's volunteers." At the premiere, after watching the Volunteer: the Battle of Survival, Chen Kaige said that he burst into tears unexpectedly: "I still can't resist the spiritual charm created by the volunteers. I always think of their faces. I think of their contributions to this country and to our time of peace."

At the premiere on the 27th, Grandma Jiang Zhaoyu, a veteran of the volunteers, burst into tears after watching the film: "I seem to be there. I saw our soldiers on the battlefield, our comrades-in-arms, and our comrades who died." I think this film will inherit the spirit of the volunteers and the spirit of the Chinese people forever. " Comrade Yuan Fang, granddaughter of General Peng Gang and granddaughter of Peng Dehuai, commander and political commissar of the Chinese people's volunteers, also said: "the film is very real. It can inspire us to carry forward the arduous fighting spirit of resisting US aggression and Aid Korea in peacetime."

At yesterday's Nanjing road show, an audience sighed with emotion: "when I watched the trailer, I had a premonition that there would be a big scene, but I was deeply shocked in the process of watching the movie, and every scene was tense and intense. Every detail reveals the cruelty and ruthlessness of the war. Let me see the brilliance and greatness of the volunteer soldiers even more. They are actually at the critical moment of life and death, but they can still have firm faith and unyielding will. They are really very touched. " Another audience said frankly: "the power of faith in the film is exactly where we want to learn. Chinese people have a spirit of great righteousness since ancient times." In front of many things, everyone's life has to be at the back. This spirit of sacrificing for our country and fighting for future generations is what our young people need now. " Actor Zhu Yilong said it was a great honor to take part in the film: "only when there is a country, there is a family." that generation suffered for three generations in exchange for a good day for future generations. The greatest significance of making this film is not to forget them, after the film is played, and then face the difficulties in life will become more tenacious. " More than 70 years have passed since the War to resist US aggression and Aid Korea, and the smoke of gunpowder on the Tieyuan battlefield has dissipated in the long river of history. However, the spirit of the Chinese people's volunteers who are not afraid of strong enemies and forge ahead has always affected generations of Chinese people, paying tribute to this group of the most lovely people!
