Paul Crawford and Sun Xiaozhong, two eighty or ninety-year-old men, hugged and cried, which caused the rest of the Chinese and American old Flying Tigers to be infected.

At that time, the Flying Tigers of China and the United States were not isolated from each other because of nationality, and they had been fighting side by side back then, so that they had fully integrated together, and even after so many years of not seeing each other, they still missed each other.

Paul Crawford and Sun Xiaozhong have not seen each other for nearly 60 years, but some of the special experiences of the two that year are not among other pilots, when the two were shot down by the Japanese in the same battle, and then hidden together by the local villagers, during that time they were ready to be discovered by the Japanese army every day, it can be said that they are ready to die every day, in that case, the experience of mutual encouragement and mutual support makes each other have a very important meaning in each other's hearts.

And it's not just the two of them who have old acquaintances.

As the old people shook hands one by one and introduced themselves to each other, many of the old Flying Tiger team members found their old acquaintances in a foreign country, and the picture of the old people hugging and crying with each other made everyone around them cry.

Even though the photographers were crying, they still carried cameras and camcorders, desperately recording every touching detail of the scene.

Li Mu noticed a detail, the physical and mental state of these American old Flying Tigers were generally much stronger than those of the Chinese old Flying Tigers, and he felt a little sad for a while.

The middle-aged and old-age lives of these American veteran Flying Tigers after the war were generally relatively happy, and their economic foundation was not bad, but the life of the Chinese veteran Flying Tigers after the war was far less good than that of these American Flying Tigers.

They all have the so-called ingredient problems of that era, serious people have been in prison, even if they are lucky, they have at least experienced a few rounds of criticism, no social status, and naturally there is no guarantee of survival, and when it comes to their children's generation, they are also quite sad, their children are seriously affected by the composition problem, and it is just that schooling is affected, and the worst thing is that the vast majority of them cannot become workers, and can only survive in the marginal areas of society.

If the old Flying Tigers of the United States are only forgotten by the society, then the old Flying Tigers of China have been treated rudely by the years for most of their lives, and for them, these fifty or sixty years can be said to be fifty or sixty years of weathering and suffering.

After suffering for most of their lives, the most direct impact is their physical and mental state, if there is no volunteer to find them, in the eyes of the outside world, they are poor and sick rickety old men, the years have not only smoothed their edges and corners, and even buried the iron will in their bones, recalling the situation when the old man Sun Xiaozhong lived hard in the half-collapsed thatched house, Li Mu was sad, if it were not for conclusive evidence, who would dare to believe that such a miserable lonely old man was actually a pilot who had fought with the invaders in the territorial air of the motherland。

Fortunately, these Chinese Flying Tigers were found some time in advance, and they were all invited to the military sanatorium for recuperation and care. Sun Xiaozhong's current physical state is completely different from the beginning, after recuperating in the nursing home system for many days, his physical state recovered rapidly, and he was lonely for most of his life, and suddenly there were dozens of old comrades-in-arms, which improved his whole person's mental outlook, and also played a huge effect.

If this were not the case, if these old American Flying Tigers saw the old man Sun Xiaozhong at that time, I am afraid they would be extremely sad and puzzled, why would a veteran who had made so many efforts and sacrifices for the nation struggle alone at the bottom of society for so long?

At that time, the old man Sun Xiaozhong, the state of life, the degree of hardship, I am afraid that in the 1.3 billion population, I can rank in the bottom 100, the entire Baofu Village is poor like that, and there are more villagers who can't read a single word, but even so, no matter which of them is a hundred times or a thousand times happier than Sun Xiaozhong, it is hard to imagine who else has a more difficult life than the old man Sun Xiaozhong.

This is the huge debt of the society to the veterans, and it is also the key that Li Mu hopes to call on the whole society to make up for it.

Spielberg walked down alone after all the old Flying Tigers got off the plane, Li Mu was still waiting for him under the spiral staircase, and after Spielberg with red eyes came down, he clasped his hands with Li Mu and sighed: "Li, the project of veterans not dying is really great, it is a great honor to be able to participate in this great charity event in person, I really hope that through this action, the world will pay attention to these great World War II veterans!"

Li Mu nodded and said, "Steven, there is still a very important matter for you to help me with these days. ”

Spielberg hurriedly said, "Please speak." ”

Li Mu said: "We have accumulated a lot of video materials about looking for Chinese veterans during this time, and then we brought back the video materials brought back by the film team we sent to the United States and this part of the materials that we picked up today. ”

Although Spielberg himself does not make documentaries, he is a world-class director after all, and his control of the structure and visual presentation of the film is masterful.

Spielberg didn't have any opinion on this, and immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely do my best." ”

……

For the reunion of the old Flying Tigers of China and the United States, Li Mu personally funded and rented nearly 100 rooms in a garden-style star-rated hotel on the outskirts of Chuncheng, not only the old Flying Tigers of the United States and their families stayed here, but also the Chinese Flying Tigers and their relatives were also arranged to live here in advance.

Li Mu, Liu Xinxin, and Spielberg also stayed at the hotel, along with all the Foundation staff, film crew, and the organizers of the press conference.

This time, the press conference of the Chinese cast list of "Flying Tigers" was also arranged to be held in this hotel.

At present, the Veterans Immortality Charity Foundation has very abundant book funds, but Li Mu still insists on paying all the expenses by himself, the main reason is that he hopes that the funds of the Veteran Immortal Foundation can be used to solve practical problems such as solving the needs of veterans and treating physical diseases for them, rather than in this relatively extravagant activity.

Sorry, the imperial capital is cooling, I have a cold and fever, and I can't keep up with the number of words updated.

Finally, a moment of silence for the 80th anniversary of the Holocaust......
