Chapter 80: Flying with Life
It's been three weeks since 911, and today is October 1st, a brand new month.
As one of the three traditional broadcasters in the United States, CBS has seven direct television stations and more than 200 affiliated television stations in the United States. Its ratings have long occupied the first place among the three major broadcasters.
The Thompsons, who are New Yorkers, witnessed the entire 911 crash and the death of their second son, Jeff Thompson's girlfriend, in the disaster.
As usual, the family all sat in the living room after dinner and watched TV, the program of CBS TV was interesting, but no one had a mind on it, TV, just to make the atmosphere in the living room less awkward.
Time came to 21:11 in this dead silence and silence, and the TV screen slowly went black, and this sudden black screen made the eyes of the Thomson family involuntarily look towards the TV.
Little by little, Beethoven's piano piece - "Sadness" came out from the stereos on both sides of the fuselage. The melody is sad and sad, and it floats to the bottom of everyone's heart.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the music stopped abruptly, and a sound similar to an explosion instantly hit the hearts of the Thompsons, a voice they were all too familiar with, this is the sound made when the 911 incident collided. The crash was only two seconds, but for the Thompsons, it was like a lifetime of ringing in their ears.
Little by little, the TV screen lit up, and a word popped up, hope, every letter was cartoonish, but the Thompsons didn't feel the slightest hope.
Little by little, the words dissipated, and an animated pigeon appeared on the screen, the pigeon was covered in bruises, and the olive leaf in its mouth was held, but the most conspicuous thing was that the animated pigeon had no wings.
The wingless white dove, silly, stupid, cute, drooping its head, dragging its body, and pulling a rope on its paws.
"What is this? A bird with a broken wing? What is it going to do? ”
Everyone is a little puzzled by this.
The rope was pulled to a tree and tied up, and at this time, the camera pulled back, and everyone realized that the other end of the rope was a cliff.
Following the rope, the white dove with broken wings slipped to the bottom of the cliff, landed on a tree trunk, and took out tools and iron nails from the side, and nailed them to the root of the tree, and the camera moved back little by little, it turned out that the tree was nailed vertically to the top of the cliff.
After doing all this, the wingless white dove climbed up the cliff along the rope, and looked down, the steep cliff was nailed vertically to the trees, and when he saw this scene, the simple wingless white pigeon jumped up happily.
After untying the rope, the wingless pigeon put on a pair of pilot's glasses and an olive leaf in its mouth and stood on the edge of the cliff.
Jeff Thompson understood everything when he saw the pilot's glasses, a smile on his face, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Taking a few steps back, the little wingless pigeon pouted its buttocks, looking cute and cute. Immediately afterwards, a sprint, jumping vertically off the cliff, the picture follows the white dove, the cliff wall is a vertical green tree, as if it is flying when it passes over it.
The TV sounded a very gentle bell little by little, the sound of the music box, very soothing, very warm.
The picture is rotated in this music, and the white dove that originally jumped vertically off the cliff seems to be flying in the air, and under it, there are mountains, trees, and clouds
When the short film arrives, everyone understands that this poor and cute white dove, because 911 has lost its wings, in order to be able to continue flying, for peace, for dreams, it has worked hard to nail the cliffs full of green trees, and then jumped down, just for the dream of continuing to fly.
The camera gives the white dove a close-up, a tear spilling out of the pilot's glasses
"Life goes on, and dreams are worth going. To everyone who has been hurt by 911. - Mister Sen"
At the end of the short film, there is such a row of words, and the name at the end is remembered by Jeff Thompson forever.
At the same time, there are almost 4 million Americans watching CBS TV, and after this short five minutes, almost everyone's eyes are red, disasters can't destroy lives, just like this little bird, we still have the courage to continue to pursue our dreams
"HOPE" is a short film that Xiansen spent two weeks producing, in his words, this is actually an animated advertisement in disguise to promote himself, only three minutes and eleven seconds, but these short three minutes, after being broadcast on CBS at 9:11 every day, caused a reaction that Xiansen himself couldn't believe.
The disaster has brought deep pain to Americans, and although there is no 911-related scene in this short film, everyone finds solace and strength from it.
The four words 911, hope, dream, and wingless pigeon became the most searched keywords on the Internet, and Mister Sen became the most frequent name in everyone's chat overnight, and people were infected by the short film and became more interested in Mister.
"Strength, courage, dreams, peace! It moved America in three minutes! ”
This is the front page headline of "America Today", and the accompanying picture on it is the wingless white dove.
In this report, "America Today" used the logo of hot spotlight, gave high praise to CBS's short film "HOPE" aired at 9:11, and also said that Americans will continue to live and pursue their dreams like the white dove without wings.
"Life has to go on, we still have hope!"

The Los Angeles Times also made a front-page headline. For the short film, it seems that all the words of praise can no longer be described, at such a moment, this animation like pure flowing water, soothes the soul of everyone who is still immersed in the shadow of the disaster and cannot get out, and brings the best comfort and touching to everyone who is hurt by the disaster.
Ironically, only the New York Times did not say anything about it, but it doesn't matter at this time, this short film has become the hottest topic in the United States.
