Inspired by real news

Focus on the leakage of high-intensity radioactive materials

The movie "Burning City" touches on a blank area in Chinese disaster movies, that is, "radiation disaster". When talking about the original intention of filming, producer Jiang Zhiqiang admitted that he was inspired by a true report about "toxic foreign waste transshipment".

reports that some developed countries transfer toxic electronic waste to Hong Kong, China, and the harmful substances contained in these wastes are causing serious harm to the environment and residents' lives. Those seemingly distant disasters are actually closely related to every viewer . As the first Chinese-language radiation disaster movie, the film has a profound realistic conception. It is hoped that through this radiation disaster caused by the high-intensity radioactive cesium 137 in the recycling site, the various social phenomena that exist in reality behind it can be brought to light. More viewers pay attention.

, high-intensity radioactive material cesium-137 was found in a sudden fire at the recycling site, and the radiation is about to endanger the entire city. The very dangerous source of radiation in this disaster, "cesium 137", is a blue luminescent powder. In the notice, citizens affected by the radiation showed symptoms of skin ulcers. Experts also explained the fatal hazards of this radioactive material, and the human body may be affected by it. It can lead to "organ failure and even death", which makes people shudder. When radiation is about to spread throughout the city, how can people find hope for survival in this countdown to survival with only 24 hours left?

It is worth mentioning that this is also the first time Bai Yu plays the role of a firefighter. The experience of performing in a radiation protective suit in the movie made him admit that "it was a very big test both physically and mentally."

The fire brigade led by Li Jiefeng (played by Bai Yu) is facing a more unknown and complex disaster scene.
