Original title: "Boiled Life": Dreams Ignite Passion
The recently hit TV series "Boiled Life" is the first excellent work to describe the history of heavy-duty trucks. The play tells about the difficult journey of entrepreneurs represented by Ai Changan who actively participated in the heavy truck industry, overcame many difficulties and led the company to glory since the reform and opening up. Under the call of the party and the country, these vivid characters in the play have completed their self-growth with a strong sense of mission and responsibility. It is precisely with a large number of builders like them that China's national industry has realized the transformation from "a big manufacturing country" to "a powerful manufacturing country", and from "Made in China" to "Made in China".
In the play, many builders gave up the good life in the metropolis and dedicated their lives to Huaqi in the northwest region. Although their lives and careers have been confused, they also contain passion and dreams, showing a strong sense of family and country. Young people such as Ai Changan and Shen Xia practice the idea that when the interests of the country conflict with the interests of individuals, the interests of the country always come first. In the depths of their souls, the traditional virtues and spiritual beliefs of the Chinese nation, homeland and world have long become a "subconscious mind". So Ai Changan finally overcame the psychological trauma left by the sacrifice of his comrades and decided not to go to Beijing. Facing the urging telegrams sent by his family from Beijing one after another, and even his grandfather's orders, Xu Chi still chose to stay in Huaqi. Shen Xia was worried about the strategy of foreign companies trying to completely swallow the Chinese market, and finally chose to resign from the foreign company and return to Huaqi. It is because of their common choice and efforts that the originally weak national auto industry has gained a strong force and achieved industrial revitalization. Behind this, family and country feelings, as the background color of the national industry, play a spiritual force that cannot be ignored.
In the history of China, regardless of any crisis or difficulty encountered, national enterprises have always played an important social role, playing an extremely important role in promoting the development of the country and society and safeguarding the fundamental interests of the broad masses of the people. People-centred purpose. This is fully reflected in the TV series "Boiled Life". In the play, there is one scene that is impressive. In the process of participating in a bidding process, Ai Changan and others suddenly encountered a serious earthquake disaster. When faced with a disaster that endangered the safety of the general public, different companies made different choices. Ai Changan and others drove to the disaster area without hesitation. This feeling of home and country is also reflected in the market-oriented reform of Huaqi. Due to the technological blockade of foreign companies and the fierce competition in the market, Huaqi is facing a serious crisis of survival. In this case, foreign companies have offered favorable conditions to try to cooperate with Huaqi, but only on the condition of a large number of layoffs. Faced with such a difficult choice, Ai Changan and others did not accept the conditions for laying off employees of state-owned enterprises, but tried every means to carry out reform and innovation, leading Huaqi employees to break through the competition among domestic and foreign counterparts and achieve the final victory. . In this process, Huaqi, as a state-owned enterprise, has unhesitatingly assumed its due responsibilities and missions in safeguarding the common interests of the people, which fully reflects the mission of a state-owned enterprise and the superiority of a socialist country.
Since the reform and opening up, China, with rapid development, has completed the road of industrialization that western developed countries have experienced for hundreds of years, and has become one of the world's major industrial powers. In this process, the heavy truck industry, as the most representative industry in the national industry, has also experienced many difficulties. Under the circumstance of weak technical foundation, blockade by foreign counterparts and brutal competition, China's heavy truck industry has embarked on a development path with unique Chinese characteristics, realizing the transcendental development in the new era of great power industry, which is in line with the innovative spirit of national enterprises. are inseparable. In the marketization tide of the 1990s, under the leadership of Ai Changan and others, Huaqi realized the reform of "military to civilian" and achieved great success. However, with the advent of the information age, Huaqi has ushered in a new test. How to deal with the development of industrialization and informatization has become a new topic before people. In this context, the courage to innovate has once again become the driving force for the development of national enterprises. In the play, facing the wave of informatization in the auto industry and the development trend of new energy, national entrepreneurs represented by Ai Changan take the initiative to attack, relying on emerging information technology and new energy technology to carry out revolutionary reforms and innovations, and finally achieved new breakthroughs, reversing the situation of China's auto industry lagging behind the West for nearly a hundred years. In this process, entrepreneurs represented by Ai Changan, Shen Xia, Xu Chi and others have shown the spirit of innovation, which is a profound manifestation of the national industrial spirit. All in all, "Boiled Life" takes Huaqi as the entry point, and shows the magnificent development process of the national industry with vivid stories, as well as the positive and enterprising spirit of entrepreneurs and workers. It is a useful attempt to create industrial-themed film and television.
