Chapter 1294: Everything makes way for veterans

The music of "1492 Conquest of Heaven" sounded again, and everyone couldn't help but be solemn.

More than 50 veteran Flying Tiger members walked slowly onto the stage accompanied by more than 50 primary school students from the Chuncheng Bayi Primary School, which is a school for the children of the Chuncheng Military Region, and all of them are children of servicemen on active duty.

Although the pace of the old people is very slow, it can still be seen from their upright body and posture that they are very different from ordinary old people.

Li Mu paved the way for the appearance of these old people so much, and when they really appeared in front of hundreds of reporters, the scene was already completely boiling.

At this moment, it doesn't matter who the actors of "Flying Tigers" are, and the real objects of everyone's attention have been transferred from the movie to these old Flying Tigers.

The thunderous applause kept echoing and superimposing on the scene, and people seemed to have found new idols in this impetuous society, new idols that were enough to make them throw their bodies to the ground, and the halos on these idols were more shining than the halos of any star, pure and supreme, and all those who had blood in their chests would be enthusiastic because of their infection.

Over the years, no veteran of the Anti-Japanese War has ever received such a grand courtesy and such strong attention, whether it is these Chinese veterans or American veterans.

In order to avoid criticism, they can't wait for people to forget their origins and let them be incognito to be farmers who have no quarrel with the world, and they have never thought that this society can remember them again, and they remember them again with gratitude.

In contrast, the situation of the old Flying Tigers in the United States is not good, they came to China to fight against the Japanese army in the nature of volunteers, although they are very respected in China, but they have not attracted much attention in the United States, and the embarrassing thing is that after the Vietnam War, American society began to be filled with anti-war sentiments, and this anti-war sentiment spread rapidly in society, so that the whole society has a layer of hostility towards the veterans who participated in the war, and then later, they are even less concerned by the society, and completely become a forgotten group.

But today, all their past is reawakened and known to the world, which is a great comfort to them in their lives for decades.

Li Mu bowed to all the veteran Flying Tigers members on the stage and said from the bottom of his heart: "On behalf of all the staff and volunteers of the Veterans Immortal Charity Foundation, as well as all the staff of Muye Technology and Taobao Technology, and all the members of the CSC Club, I would like to thank you, as well as all the veterans who participated in World War II from the standpoint of justice, and thank you for your outstanding and indelible contributions to the country and the world." ”

Li Mu feels that representative is a very noble word, but also a very sacred word, as an IT practitioner, a private entrepreneur, If other groups also hope to pay tribute to these veterans, then they can use their own way, they can applaud, they can support, they can donate, and they can actually do something for the veterans around them.

The reporters in the audience also spontaneously bowed to the old heroes with Li Mu, and then, each old hero took turns to introduce his name, place of origin, time from Rong, army number and battles he participated in.

More than 20 Chinese pilots are all National Air Force, and more than 20 American pilots are all officially Chinese Air Force American Volunteer Aid Air Force.

Including the old man Sun Xiaozhong, the old man Han Zili and the old man Paul Crawford, after each old man introduced himself, the time had passed an hour and a half.

This is comparable to the length of a movie, which did not make anyone bored, they listened carefully to the self-introduction of each old man, and from their calm words, they felt the war and even the bloody romance they experienced back then.

It is said that there were several American pilots who fell in love with the Flying Tigers and married each other, but the time was too long, and the others had already passed away, so they could not appear at today's press conference.

The only regret is that there were no American nurses in the real history of the Flying Tigers, otherwise, there would really be a love story between a Chinese Xia pilot and an American female nurse in the script.

The love bred in the war is comparable to Jin Jian, and Li Mu is also looking forward to the screen interpretation of Leonardo and Du Wei, Liu Ye and Anne Hathaway in the future.

……

said that the "Flying Tigers" Chinese actor selection press conference, in the end, no one paid attention to this matter anymore, and all everyone's attention was focused on Li Mu's Veterans Immortal Charity Foundation, as well as these surviving old Flying Tigers, until all the old people introduced themselves, until the veteran representatives expressed their deep expectations for the movie "Flying Tigers" in front of all the media, everyone suddenly remembered: By the way, the actor candidates have not been announced yet......

Everyone has forgotten the original intention, and also ignored the original intention, although there is some cart before the horse, but this also confirms the story of the veteran from one aspect, which can attract enough attention from the society.

The children of the primary school of the military region accompanied the veterans off the stage, and Li Mu stood back on the stage and said lightly: "Next, we will invite the Chinese actors from "Flying Tigers" to enter!"

As soon as Li Mu's voice fell, when everyone didn't react, it was Teacher Li Xuejian who took the lead, and all the actors were sorted by age, lined up from the side of the stage to the stage, and stood by Li Mu's side.

The reporters were blindsided.

What are you doing? All the actors were called out happily at once? Shouldn't there be a bit of suspense about the announcement of the cast of the major event that the whole society is paying attention to, the milestone super production in the Chinese film industry?

Even if you don't do suspense, at least it's a little grander, right? There is no background music, no short films, Li Mu said a word, and everyone lined up? At least call your name and appear again, this ...... This is really a day and a place compared to the formation of the veterans just now......

The reporters didn't react at once, and Li Mu had already begun to introduce to everyone: "Let me introduce our cast to you, first of all, the famous performing artist, Mr. Li Xuejian!"

The reporters who reacted gave applause, Teacher Li Xuejian bowed deeply to the audience, and then Li Mu introduced Teacher Chen Zhiming, as well as Teacher Chen Baoguo, followed by Huang Bo, Liu Ye, Tang Wei, Du Wei and Wang Xinran.

When introducing each actor, Li Mu only made a simple introduction and introduced the names of each of them, but did not introduce more content, let alone the role they were about to play in "Flying Tigers" this time, and the actors did not speak, they knew very well that the social attention of the movie "Flying Tigers" was high enough, so high that they did not need to hype it themselves. Publicity, the whole society will spontaneously pay attention, so the real protagonists today are not them, but the veterans who were on the stage just now, including Li Mu, everyone is setting up a stage for the Veteran Immortality Charity Foundation, to make this charitable foundation famous in the whole society, and to let the whole society voluntarily participate in the charity project of the Veteran Immortality.

After introducing all the actors, Li Mucai invited each actor to make a short speech, starting with Mr. Li Xuejian, each of them only took a minute or two to make a simple self-introduction, and then most of the time, they were doing publicity for the Veterans Immortality Charity Foundation, everyone was very honored to have the opportunity to listen to the oral history of these veterans, understand their real stories, understand the war of the year, and feel more honored to have the opportunity to star in their stories in the movie.

These celebrities, big names, and veteran actors are now willingly making green leaves for the veterans, adhering to one purpose: everything to make way for the veterans.

Li Mu didn't waste time on the cast, after he introduced the actors, he invited Director Spielberg, the representative of DreamWorks, to appear, and after Spielberg appeared on the stage, the remarks also revolved around these respectable veterans, about the movie itself, just said a few words, everyone is maintaining a tacit understanding, today, the movie is not important, you are not important, the veteran is the most important!

Although the reporters were very curious, the focus of their thinking was also changing with Li Mu's deliberate arrangement, at the scene, everyone's main focus was on the veterans, and the Veterans Immortality Charity Foundation.

In the subsequent Q&A session, Li Mu, Spielberg and other actors also maintained such a tacit understanding, answering questions related to the film simply, focusing on answering questions related to charitable foundations, and refusing to answer questions that have nothing to do with either.

This press conference did not authorize any TV station to do live video, so the people who have been paying attention to Li Mu and this movie across the country are waiting for relevant media reports, and they can't wait to know who will star in this movie and what kind of reply Li Mu will make to those remarks on the Internet.

At nine o'clock in the evening, major media and TV stations have begun the first round of large-scale reports, and YY network also pushed the news containing video through YY nationwide at ten o'clock in the evening.

A large number of curious people clicked on it for the first time, but they never dreamed that what was waiting for them was not the solution of gossip, but a baptism and shock of the soul!
