Generally speaking, this movie is much better than expected. As a gift presented by the filmmakers to the 70th birthday of the motherland’s mother, the production of the whole work is very deliberate. The film is jointly shot by seven directors. People take on a corresponding short film, and then put together a complete film. Ning Hao, one of the seven directors, said in an interview that the preparation time for this gift work was very short. The preparations started at the beginning of the year. The time is tight and the tasks are heavy. So for every director, this is a very special time. Big try. After watching the movie, netizens said that the directors did a great job.
is a main theme movie. There is no too large narrative in "My Motherland and Me". Every little story is something that happened to ordinary people. There are both major events that change China and minor events in the streets. Each story uses a unique perspective to illustrate the relationship between people and the country. Today we will talk about the story of "Lin Zhiyuan, the first person to protect the flag of China" in these seven short films by Guan Hu.
Lin Zhiyuan is a character in the "Eve" segment in charge of director Guan Hu. He happened on the eve of the founding ceremony. Lin Zhiyuan, starring Huang Bo, can find a prototype in real life. On October 1, 1949, the flagpole of the first five-star red flag raised in Tiananmen Square was produced by Lin Zhiyuan. His position at that time was Engineer of Beijing Municipal Engineering Research Institute.
The founding of the country is very important. In order to ensure that the National Day can rise without fail, Lin Zhiyuan has done everything himself in many places, standing on a high flagpole and welding himself. He was a ray of light on October 1st. On that day, Chairman Mao had to personally set the flag-raising button to raise the first five-star red flag of New China. His role was to ensure the orderly progress of the entire process.
At the founding ceremony, in order to ensure that the flag-raising activities were foolproof, as the general person in charge, he stood behind the chairman's left. Before the flag was raised, he gently reminded Chairman Mao to twist the button to the left, which later also achieved the founding of the country. A classic moment at the ceremony. Therefore, for Lin Zhiyuan, he is the first flag protector in China. Therefore, such a scene of great significance is truly shown in the movie. Seeing here, the editor can't help sighing that Huang Bo is the biggest card in the whole shot. In the shot, Chairman Mao has become his background.
There is another very important detail in the whole story that touched many people. During the flag raising exercise, Lin Zhiyuan found that the stop ball on the flagpole was not very strong. Therefore, making a stronger stop ball became their first task, and production Rare metals are needed to stop the ball. The newly liberated Beijing City cannot find rare metals, so Lin Zhiyuan mobilized the masses to look for them. Soon, many Beijing residents were holding spoons, metal glasses, and even children’s safety locks. Come here, let the engineer appraise whether it can be used. This shot not only shows the people's support for the new China at that time, but also shows that Beijing was scarce of materials at that time, and everything was awaited.
In fact, the lack of material during liberation was also reflected in another aspect. At that time, a flagpole was needed to be erected in Tiananmen Square, and the height of the flagpole became a matter of discussion. It was finally decided that the height of the flagpole was set at 35 meters, and the Tiananmen Tower The same high, but the newly liberated Beijing City, the industry is extremely backward, the entire Beijing City can not find a material to make a 35-meter-high flagpole.
In the end, Lin Zhiyuan came up with a good solution. He found 4 iron water pipes of different thicknesses and welded them in order from thick to thin. After they were made, the problem came again. The flagpole is only 22.5 meters long, which is basically It was less than 35 meters. At that time, no more suitable water pipe could be found. In the end, the engineers reported the situation to the headquarters. At this time, there was no better way, so the headquarters decided to use this 22.5-meter flagpole. It was only in 1991 that the flagpole on Tiananmen Square was changed to 32.6 meters, and it has been used until now.
