Paul Crawford and sun Xiaozhong, 80 or 90, hugged and wept, infecting other Chinese and American Flying Tigers.
At that time, the Flying Tigers of China and the United States didn't separate from each other because of their nationality. They fought side by side in those years, so that they have fully integrated into each other. Even if they haven't met for so many years, they still miss each other.
Although Paul Crawford and sun Xiaozhong haven't seen each other for nearly 60 years, some of their special experiences in that year were not found among other pilots. They were shot down by the Japanese army in the same battle, and then hid together by the local villagers. During that time, they were ready to be found by the Japanese army every day. It can be said that they were ready to die every day In that case, the experience of mutual encouragement and support makes each other have a very important meaning in each other's heart.
And old acquaintance is not just the two of them.
With the old people shaking hands one by one and introducing themselves to each other, many old Flying Tigers have found their old and foreign acquaintances. The pictures of the old people hugging and crying each other make everyone around look tearful.
Even though the photographers were crying, they still carried cameras and cameras to record every touching detail of the scene.
Li Mu noticed a detail that the physical and mental states of these American old flying tigers were generally better than those of the Chinese old flying tigers, and he felt a little sad for a while.
The middle-aged and old age life of these American Flying Tigers after the war is generally happy, and their economic foundation is good. However, the life of Chinese Flying Tigers after the war is far better than that of these American Flying Tigers.
They all had the so-called composition problems of that era. Serious people had been in prison. Even if they were lucky, they had at least experienced several rounds of criticism. Without social status, there would be no survival guarantee. However, their children's generation was also very sad. Their children were seriously affected by the composition problems, and their schooling was just affected. The worst thing was that most of them could not become Workers can only live on the edge of society.
If the American old flying tigers are only forgotten by the society, then the Chinese old Flying Tigers have been roughly treated by the years for most of their lives. For them, the past fifty or sixty years can be said to be the fifty or sixty years that they have experienced hardships.
After suffering for most of their lives, the most direct impact is their physical and mental state. Without this volunteer to find them, they are poor and sick rickets in the eyes of the outside world. Years not only smooth their edges, but also bury the steel will in their bones. I think of sun Xiaozhong's half of the grass is falling Li Mu is very sad about the hard life in the thatched cottage. If there is no conclusive evidence, who can believe that such a miserable lonely old man is a pilot who once led the air in the motherland and fought against the invaders.
Fortunately, I found these Chinese Flying Tigers some time in advance and invited them to the military area sanatorium for recuperation and care. Their current physical and mental state, though not comparable to those of the American elderly, at least did not make them feel too different. Sun Xiaozhong's current physical state is completely the same as the original Different, after many days of systematic recuperation in the sanatorium, his physical condition recovered rapidly and he was alone for most of his life. Suddenly, he had dozens of old comrades in arms, which had a great effect on the improvement of his whole mental outlook.
If not, if these old American Flying Tigers saw the old sun Xiaozhong at that time, I'm afraid they would be extremely sad and puzzled. Why does a veteran who has paid so much effort and sacrifice for the nation struggle for so long alone at the bottom of the society?
At that time, I'm afraid that sun Xiaozhong's living condition and the degree of hardship could rank in the bottom 100 of the 1.3 billion people. There are many villagers who are poor and don't know a single word in Baofu village. But even so, no matter which of them is 100 times or 1000 times happier than sun Xiaozhong, it's hard to imagine who is better than sun Xiaozhong It's harder.
This is a huge social debt to the veterans, and the key that Li Mu most hopes to call on the whole society to make up for.
After all the old Flying Tigers got off the plane, Spielberg came down alone. Li Mu was still waiting for him under the spiral ladder. After Spielberg got down, he and Li Mu firmly grasped each other's hands and sighed: "Li, it's really great that the veteran will not die. It's a great honor to participate in this great charity activity in person, I really hope that through this action, the world can pay attention to these great World War II veterans! "
Li Mu nodded and said, "Steven, there is another important thing for you these days."
Spielberg said in a hurry, "please."
Li Mu said: "we have accumulated a lot of video materials about looking for Chinese veterans during this period, together with the video materials brought back by the shooting team we sent to the United States and the materials we received today. In the two days before the launch, we have to quickly make a clip, and then broadcast it to the whole society on our release. You need to Help with the check. "
Although Spielberg doesn't make documentaries himself, he is a world-class director after all. He controls the structure and visual presentation of the film at the master level. If the editing of the propaganda film can be checked by him, I believe that the quality will be greatly improved.Spielberg didn't say anything about it, nodded and said, "you can rest assured that I will do my best."
……
In order to reunite the old Flying Tigers of China and the United States, Li Mu personally funded nearly 100 rooms in a garden forest star hotel in the suburb of Chuncheng. Not only the old Flying Tigers of American nationality and their families stayed here, but also the Chinese flying tigers and their relatives were arranged to live here in advance.
Li Mu, Liu Xinxin and Spielberg also live in the hotel, together with all the staff of the foundation, the crew of the film crew and the organizers of the conference.
The release of the Chinese cast of flying tigers is also scheduled to be held in this hotel.
At present, the fund of the charity foundation of the immortal veterans is very abundant, but Li Mu is still determined to bear all the expenses by himself. The main reason is that he hopes that the fund of the foundation can all be used to solve the practical problems such as the life needs of the veterans and the treatment of their physical diseases, rather than this relatively extravagant activity Medium.
……
Sorry, the capital is cooling down. I have a cold and a fever. I can't keep up with the new words.
Finally, I would like to pay a silent tribute to the 80th anniversary of the Massacre
