The film mainly tells the story of an old soldier from when he was a new recruit to his gradual climb up the ranks until his departure from the Northwest. 。
Because of their pursuit of perfection and realistic shooting style, it’s very immersive. Everyone feels the hardships of that generation, and it’s also because of their selfless pioneering and construction that everyone has a happy life today. 。<<>> 。
Haojie’s colleagues couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts, this movie doesn’t even need much publicity, just word-of-mouth can attract countless viewers. 。Ruan Ruan’s colleagues, including Director Chen, expressed that after returning to school, they must apply to the school and organize a school-wide screening for all teachers and students. 。
Yaoyao is silently crying again. 。The old man sat rigidly, as if he had returned to that era. His eyes were constantly filled with tears, but none of them flowed until the end of the film. The final Easter egg was Gu Ruandong’s thoughtful effort in finding his comrades from back then, one by one, filming them. Each comrade said to the camera: “Old squad leader, long time no see!” The old man’s tears finally spilled over, especially when it came to the deceased comrade. In his final moments, Gu Ruandong recorded him saying with a trembling voice: “Old squad leader, I’ll be your soldier again in the next life.” 。It’s been too many years since we last saw each other. Back then, the old man was powerful and ambitious, climbing the ranks step by step, gaining more soldiers and comrades. As he rose in power, he gradually lost touch with those original friends. 。Gu Ruandong was very thoughtful, he helped find back each one of them. 。
The movie ended, and the entire cinema was still eerily quiet. All that could be heard were the rustlings of tissues as everyone remained immersed in the drama they just witnessed. 。Yao Yao tilted her head slightly, looking around for Gu Ruandong’s figure. She hadn’t seen him from the start to now. 。Then, the screen on the projector gradually faded away. The stage lights came on, and Gu Ruandong walked out with several young actors. Each young actor was accompanied by an elderly person, who was the prototype of the character they were playing. 。He even invited all of his grandfather’s comrades to Beijing, he is truly thoughtful. 。Yao Yao was so moved that she burst into tears, helping her grandfather toward the stage. 。During this process, the entire cinema stood in solemn respect, involuntarily standing up and applauding as they saw the old man walk onto the stage. They bid farewell to him with a wave, as he greeted each of his old comrades one by one. 。Gu Ruandong automatically made himself invisible, standing in the shadows where the stage lights could not reach. 。Yaoyao didn’t accompany her grandpa on stage. She stood under the stage, watching her grandpa’s trembling figure. Her gaze remained blurry. 。Until, her gaze landed on Gu Ruandong in the shadows. He had been watching her all along, and her blurry vision cleared up. At this moment, the one thing she most wanted to do was go onstage and embrace him, expressing love and gratitude that words couldn’t contain. 。Thank him for everything he has done for her and grandpa. 。But she couldn’t steal the spotlight, so she stood silently under the stage, looking at him. 。After a while, he came down from the side and stood beside her, naturally hugging her. 。Gu Ruandong always does things meticulously. After the film ended, he also arranged a hotel dinner for the old man and his comrades-in-arms, with dedicated car pick-up and drop-off. 。
Actually, Gu Ruandong’s parents were also invited to watch the premiere. Touched by the film and seeing everything Gu Ruandong had arranged, his mother said with emotion, “People say daughters are gone once they grow up, but our family is the opposite.” 。。Because he has never obeyed rules since childhood, and he has been fighting all the way up, always being ruthless in his actions. 。All the women his father had affairs with before were subdued by him, none of them dared to make a scene at his doorstep. Even his father was afraid of him. 。His warmth and respect were reserved only for those worthy of it. 。In that case, he must have never really cared for his parents and family since childhood. 。Realizing this, Mother Gu didn’t know whether to be sad or happy. After watching the movie, she and Father Gu left on their own. 。The old gentleman had a dinner gathering with his old comrades-in-arms, accompanied by Lu Kuò and Gu Ruǎn Dōng. 。These old comrades only knew Gu Ruandong, not Lu Kuo. They always thought that Gu Ruandong was from the Lu family and that this film was specially produced by him for their grandfather. 。So, during the meal, a comrade sitting next to the old man pointed at Gu Ruandong and said: “Your child has your demeanor from back then. He looks strict and difficult to get along with, but he is persistent, hardworking, and always thinking of us.” 。At first, when he came to us, we all thought he was a fraud. Then he came again and again until he convinced us. 。This time, he specially invited us to the capital to watch a movie. If it weren’t for seeing you,
we would still be wondering if he was using our past identities to make money by creating hype. 。The old man listened and burst into laughter: “Not bad, not bad at all!” He didn’t deny that his comrades had mistaken Gu Ruandong for his grandson and fully acknowledged him. 。Gu Ruandong smiled faintly beside him, silently pouring wine for the elderly at the table. The wine was also specially brought back from the northwest by him, an old-fashioned brew filled with memories. 。Only Lu Kuo seemed to be ostracized, like an outsider. It’s truly heartbreaking. 。But one has to admit, Gu Ruandong is more like Grandpa when he was young, and he cares for Grandpa more than I do. 。
This time, he has to concede defeat. 。Halfway through the meal, an old comrade noticed Lu Kuo:
“Who is this?”
The elder glanced at Lu Kuo and introduced him: “This is the son of Old Family.” 。
Comrades were all stunned. If memory serves, the old man’s descendants consisted of a boy and a girl. 。Then everyone looked at Gu Ruandong. 。Then the elder said: He is Yaoyao’s boyfriend. 。Everyone praised him again, saying that his son-in-law was so dedicated and hardworking, what a blessing! 。After dinner, Gu Ruandong arranged for a car to take his comrades to the hotel, and then personally drove the old man home. He was very thoughtful. 。Yaoyao was waiting for them at home, even though she knew Grandpa would definitely like Gu Ruandong, she was still a little nervous. When she saw their car drive back, she immediately ran over. She originally subconsciously wanted to hug Gu Ruandong, but her steps stopped abruptly, and then she turned around and went to hold onto Grandpa’s arm. 。Lu Kuo sneered from the side: Just keep pretending. 。
Yao Yao made a spooky face at him and then peeked at Gu Ruandong. 。He smiled at her too,
and the knot of worry in her heart finally loosened. 。Holding onto grandpa’s arm, she walked inside and asked, “Grandpa, are you happy today?”
“Hmm” 。”
