Special feature of 1905 film network "China youth are young people with lofty ideals and ambitions! China youth are young people with deep feelings for home and country!

"
Today is the 103rd May 4th Youth Day. This year, we also celebrate the centenary of the founding of the Communist Youth League of China.
On this special day, the film channel will broadcast four films filled with the youth of their parents.Let’s go back to that era and look for those inspiring shining footprints.
01
Song of youth
At 9: 40am on May 4th, the film channel broadcasted the dazzling revolutionary literary classic Song of Youth in China’s film history, revisiting the revolutionary wave that stirred up in the 1930s.
The color film Song of Youth, produced in 1959, is adapted from the novel of the same name by Yang Mo, a female writer who has been translated into more than 20 languages and has attracted much attention at home and abroad.
With the historical period from "September 18th" to "December 9th" as the background and the student movement as the main line, the film tells the story of young intellectuals in China, represented by young woman Lin Daojing, who made unremitting exploration, went through many twists and turns and finally embarked on the revolutionary road in order to resist Japanese imperialist aggression and save the motherland in distress.
This surging film of the times is not only touching in story, but also unique in filming.
In the use of lens language, Song of Youth, contrary to the habit of using relatively static screen lenses in the 1950s, boldly and appropriately used a lot of push-pull and zoom lenses to express the majestic momentum of the revolution more vividly.
At the same time, "Song of Youth" used a lot of revolutionary songs that were deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Popular songs such as "On the Songhua River", "Song of Saving the Nation" and "Flowers in May" pushed the mood of watching movies to one climax after another, and deeply sympathized with the feelings and revolutionary enthusiasm of Chinese sons and daughters.
They burned the mottled old shadows of youth for the revolutionary cause, and now they are vaguely moving.
02
Forever a teenager
"Teenagers are not afraid of long years, and they are still teenagers after a hundred years of wind and rain." May 4th.At 15: 15, the movie "Forever Teenagers" is set in the Anti-Japanese War era in the 1920s, focusing on five ideal students, and tells the story of young college students with ideals struggling for their beliefs in the constant social changes in the early days of the founding of the Party in communist party.
In order to present a true sense of time and life, the creative team successively traveled to nine provinces and cities such as Jiangsu, Guangdong, Fujian, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Shandong, Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Shaanxi, etc., and reproduced historical scenes such as the birth of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the workers’ movement in the early days of the founding of the Party, the first cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the Northern Expedition, the failure of the Great Revolution, and the establishment of revolutionary armed forces of workers and peasants to the maximum extent.
The director said: "In the movie, a group of ordinary students chose the Communist Party of China (CPC) in the ideological trend and laid the foundation stone for the new China Building. I’ve been thinking about it and want to present such a story. I am going to digest a lot of historical materials, look for moving points in Qian Qian’s thousands of stories and historical events, and mix them with processing and creation. "
This group of college students is a group of people who dared to act in those days: Wen Ting is full of iron, Feng Jianxing is full of wisdom, the leopard is awkward, the old warrior is mature and calm, and the soybean milk is brave and fearless … …
Although they have different personalities, their fiery youth and burning passion are the same under the special historical background. No matter how tortuous the revolutionary road is, they still stick to their original intentions and embrace regretless youth.
03
The Sacrifice
The great spirit of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea forged in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea is precious spiritual wealth, which will inspire the people of China and the Chinese nation to overcome all difficulties and obstacles and all powerful enemies.
The Sacrifice, which was broadcast at 17: 30 on May 4th, focused on the engineering soldiers outside the frontal battlefield in jincheng battle in 1953, and tried to truly present that little-known history.
There are not many movies describing the theme of engineers. The Sacrifice looked back at the "pioneer of the army" behind the bridge of heroes, which could not be broken and bombed, in order to ensure logistics supply and transportation and defend the traffic fortress.
"We didn’t get bayonets in this battle, and we didn’t kill the enemy ourselves, but we know the meaning of our work: we ensured the victory of the battle." Zhang Zhenzhi, the "engineering hero", was the actual commander who repaired and protected the Yanli Bridge in Jingangchuan.
"Why is the battle flag picturesque, and the hero’s blood dyed it red? Why is the spring always there, and the hero’s life blooms?"
They launched a life-and-death relay for defending the country and defending the country, and used their lives to open up an "exploding steel transportation line", which provided a strong reliance for the frontal battlefield and exchanged peace and development for generations.
The Sacrifice has opened up a big picture from a small viewpoint, which shows us the brave and lovely young people in China outside the front line and their great spirit of "not afraid of sacrifice, defeating the strong with the weak".
04
The Pioneer
At 19: 50 on May 4th, The Pioneer walked into the life of Li Dazhao, a "great Marxist", which brought us back to the awakening era of being born to death.
The May 4th Movement in 1919, the Covenant of "South Chen Bei Lee" and the strike of Kailuan Minmetals Alliance … …
The film takes the 38 hours before Li Dazhao died heroically as the breakthrough point. In flashbacks, several important moments that Li Dazhao explored hard for the road of China are constantly flashed back, which uniquely weaves his life of leading a group of revolutionaries to actively run and fight for national salvation.
With a romantic lens, The Pioneer presented the audience with not only a magnificent history under a wide-angle lens, but also the mission and dream of the revolutionaries a hundred years ago.
"I wish my dear youth, born in youth and died in youth, born in youth and died in youth. Go ahead without considering the future, turn your back on darkness and turn to light, advance civilization for the world and create happiness for mankind. With my youth, I will create a family of youth, a country of youth, a nation of youth, a human being of youth, a planet of youth and a universe of youth, so that I can enjoy my endless life. "
Li Dazhao’s article "Youth" published in "New Youth" in 1916 was about the young people who fought for the revolution and himself.
It is their revolutionary pride that makes us believe that victory will surely come.
Looking back on the century-old history, countless young people have turned their flesh and blood into the cornerstone of progress, and struggled on the road of building a new China with firm faith and no regrets.
Nowadays, the young people of our new era are also inspired by their parents’ century-old struggle history, and write a beautiful chapter of the new era with the passion of youth.
On May 4th, the film channel will continuously broadcast the revolutionary historical film Song of Youth and Forever a Teenager, which shows the high-spirited youth of my father, The Pioneer, The Sacrifice.
Let’s go with our dreams in Do not forget your initiative mind!
