It was an extremely ordinary day in her flying career, until two unexpected "passengers" boarded the plane...
They were brothers.

Life comes first
"Ordinary Hero" is adapted from the true event "Rescue Hetian Broken Arm Boy".
In the early morning of April 30, 2021, the last flight from Xinjiang Hotan Airport to Urumqi, China Southern Airlines CZ6820, was taxiing out from the No. 1 gate, ready to take off.
Suddenly, a boy with a broken arm was rushed into the airport terminal with a broken arm. The family cried: "We are going to take a plane! We are going to Urumqi to help!" Relay" starts. From the flight crew and all passengers to the traffic police, doctors and ordinary citizens, strangers who have never known each other, raced against time and went all out for the same life, and finally achieved a miracle. After the
incident, Hong Kong director Chen Guohui immediately paid attention to the news. He has always wanted to make a movie about Xinjiang, and with the idea of going to the local area to see it, in June 2021, he embarked on a trip to collect folk songs.

Chen Guohui spent two months re-walking the 1400-kilometer road of life. He interviewed many witnesses and learned from their mouths that in every part of the journey, someone was silently helping the child.
Hetian Airport Secretary Tian's words impressed Chen Guohui deeply. "The airport was closed that night, and he stopped the plane and said, 'There is a pot, I will carry it tomorrow, and I must save him tonight!'"
And when those involved in "Relay of Life" talked about this, The most common sentence is: "We are not heroes, we are ordinary people doing ordinary things."
Chen Guohui put this sentence in the last line of dialogue in the movie. Later, he thought, the title of the film might as well be called "Ordinary Heroes".

In his opinion, making this film is not only to present this true story, but also to let the world know a real Xinjiang. "The real Xinjiang is notAs some Western media reported, I want to photograph the great love of Xinjiang. "
In the movie, from the walnut garden in the fields to the operating table in Urumqi, what connects this adventure is the flow of "big love": it is the kind-hearted Bazaar stall owner who urgently evacuates the crowd and makes way for wheat. The road of love;
is a dedicated traffic police and command center, helping my brother to cross the roadblocks and connecting with 120 seamlessly;
is the multi-party coordination of the airport, so that the planes about to take off return to the covered bridge and open the door for the second time;
is to keep The rebellious teenager who was moxie-headed and kept playing games persuaded his parents to quit the plane and gave up his seat to Mai and his brother;
was the captain decisively applied for a direct flight, changed the route, and saved 17 minutes of precious time;
was the crew The attentive care of the young doctor, the decisive treatment of the young doctor, and the singing of "Our Motherland is a Garden" by the passengers have made Mai turn over again and again...
As the airport manager Tang Wei said in the film: Life comes first, and all the rules established can be broken in front of life. In the movie "
", Li Bingbing plays the purser Zhou Yan, whose prototype is Zhao Yan, the purser of the CZ6820 flight of China Southern Airlines Xinjiang Branch. Strive to accurately "reproduce" every gesture and tone of the flight attendant. How did she interpret this role? What are the impressive details in the filming? The following is our conversation with Li Bingbing. Zhou Yan, the flight attendant, what was the opportunity?
Li Bingbing: At first, I was moved by the story behind the movie. A 6-year-old child suffered an accident. Without any external organization and help, an 8-hour event The ultimate rescue happened naturally. It can be said that he is a very lucky child who met so many kind strangers and helped him catch up with the operation and save his arm. In 2021, I saw this news, It was very thrilling and incredible. When the director found me, I felt that this kind of film that praised ordinary people and expressed the warmth and kindness between strangers was very meaningful. Especially when I was asked to play a flight attendant, this I haven't played the characters before, and I don't know their work. I'm curious and fresh.
People's Entertainment: The image of the purser has often appeared in previous film and television works, and it is also very close to our real life. Did you add some of your own unique understanding when interpreting the character?
Li Bingbing: At first, I thought to myself, the purser, I know, know, and have seen. But when I actually do it, I feel empty inside. So before filming started, the crew and I requested that we have to experience life, so we went to Xinjiang for training. Only after participating in the training will I know exactly what to do, and I will be more like a professional, so that I can stand in front of the camera and have the confidence to believe that I am a flight attendant.
is also because of this role, which gives me the opportunity to deeply understand the rigor and difficulty of the air transport industry. Are you familiar with everything on the plane? How to use when picking up the phone? Each of its numbers represents an area, which number corresponds to the captain? Which number is in the rear cabin, which number is in the front cabin, which number is in the whole machine broadcast... This is a work department with very strict rules and regulations. If a little mistake occurs, the consequences may be disastrous.

People's Entertainment: So the staff are also teaching you lessons in accordance with the real model of training newcomers?
Li Bingbing: That's right. When I first arrived, my trainer—I prefer to call her "instructor"—said, "My daughter likes you very much." He also gave me a book and a gold bookmark. When she talks to me, she is very gentle, just like those audience friends who like you in life; but as soon as she goes to class, she becomes another person, with a straight face, like being frozen, no one can Do not challenge her teaching authority and ensure that every piece of information and knowledge conveyed is accurate. This sense of distance fascinates me. I suddenly realized that this is a job where jokes are not allowed, and it takes a strong sense of conviction to do it well. It was also through training that I stepped into "Zhou Yan" at once. I knew where the fulcrum and roots of this character were, and I built and approached this character step by step.
People's Entertainment: After playing this role, when you meet the real purser in your life, how does your inner feeling change?
Li Bingbing: I feel a little dazed, I think this is my job (laughs). After filming the movie, the moment I got on the plane, I wrote a Weibo post with special emotion. My identity has been changed, and I am no longer the purser, just an ordinary passenger. Sitting on the plane, looking at the familiar way they work, and the exact color of the plane seats, everything is exactly the same as when we were on set. At that time, I was a little dazed, and wanted to rush over and say, "I can work with you guys." But my reason told me: "You are not a flight attendant, and you are not in this industry. If you rush out, you will make trouble." Around
People's Entertainment: In the end credits of the movie, we also saw the news footage at that time, including Zhao Yan, the prototype character of the crew chief you played. Did you communicate with her?
Li Bingbing: I communicate with her the most. I want to know every second of her on the plane, to know all of her feelings and ways of coping. Only through her retelling can I know what happened on this voyage.
When she saw the child, she didn't know the child's injury, and her first reaction was to think of her son. Her child is also six or seven years old. As a mother, she is very distressed all of a sudden.
When she took the plastic bag, she felt the soft, cold feeling inside. I heard that it was the child's arm, and the whole scalp was numb. In our imagination, the broken arm may undergo some special treatment and packaging; but at the time of the emergency, being able to catch the plane and perform the operation was the most critical. I was instructed to keep the amputated limb at a low temperature, but not to put it in the refrigerator, so I kept adding ice cubes to the plastic bag. Later, when the ice cubes were not enough, I put iced cola and mineral water in it to maintain the temperature.
She told me about the complicated feelings at that time: to stabilize the emotions of the passengers in the rear cabin, to take care of the injured patients and their families, as the flight attendant, no matter how flustered I was, I couldn't show it. I asked her, "What did you say at the time?" She said, "Nothing, just restraint." These touched me a lot and allowed me to better complete the construction and performance of this character.
People's Entertainment: The scene that impressed me the most was the dialogue between the purser and the child. She said, "Auntie hurt you." Then she couldn't help crying.
Li Bingbing: At that time, I did special effects makeup for half of the young actor's body. It was the first time I saw that bloody appearance, which was really unacceptable. I believed it all at once and fell into the whole story without feeling like I was acting. Every time I touched him, I felt like I was hurting him. How much pain does the child have when the arm is broken? When you help him deal with it, you have to make him hurt more and more. How uncomfortable is he in this situation? As an ordinary person, I can't do anything, but at this moment I have to do it, and I feel very nervous and competitive. I was sweating constantly all over my body and my gloves were sweaty. I was nervous with the child, and my heart was full of huge apology: "It's Auntie who made you hurt more, Auntie I'm sorry for you." I still remember the feeling of that moment until now, you don't know what you can do to help him relieve the pain .
People's Entertainment: "Ordinary Heroes" was released during the "November" period, what do you think is the special significance?
Li Bingbing: "November" is not only our National Day, but also a wonderful holiday. Unlike some genre films, which have exclusive fan groups, "Ordinary Heroes" is a film suitable for all ages. It tells the warm stories that happened among strangers in our ordinary life. One small act of kindness from you may save someone's life and be a light to someone who is going through darkness.

People's Entertainment: In real life, have you felt the kindness from "ordinary heroes"?
Li Bingbing: There are too many. On a recent business trip, I was on the plane to pick up the suitcase on the luggage rack. There was a man next to me, and seeing that I was struggling, he said, "You don't move, I'll come." I saw that he was quite old, so I said, "Let's come together." He still insisted: "You don't move. , I'll come." Then he quickly helped me take it down. At that moment, when I needed help, he was a hero who helped me in time. When strangers reach out to us, we feel a sense of security and trust. We will believe that society is full of goodwill and that the world is a beautiful place.
