Squeeze squeeze.
How is this May Day more crowded than the Spring Festival.
Tickets for the Old Summer Palace are sold out, and all tickets for the day at Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station are sold out...
Due to the interruption of the two-week schedule, I only want to lie flat at home for five days.
What if you really want to go out and have a relaxing time?
It is to be expected that many people will set their sights on cinemas.
May 1st new film, start the whole thing.
Sir, let's start with the one that most people want to watch today:
King of the Long Sky
Military themes, not unusual in recent years.
But this movie shows the sharp soldier of the sharp soldiers, the trump card of the trump cards:
Air force.
It is also several times more difficult to capture the realism and professionalism of air combat than regular troops.
Chinese filmmakers have been breaking through, but for audiences, there are still too few opportunities to watch the thrill and beauty of flying on the big screen.
Many friends who have seen it said that "burning" and "exceeding expectations".
Big scene.
is basic.
There are also special protagonists in the film.
How special? Sir sell first.
It is they who allow their comrades on the front line to fight without worry.
In the theater, feel the ambition of Lingyun, and breathe through Changhong.
This is also the common demand of Chinese audiences today:
It's just special effects, and it already seems hollow.
The audience wants to feel the emotional core that fills the big scene.
01
Long sky.
The clouds overlap, quiet and mysterious.
When we fly, we always look through the small window that cannot be opened, and look at the unattainable dream.
But that dreamy place is a place where today's protagonists walk almost every day.
Pilot Lei Yu (played by Wang Yibo).
Just took the "golden helmet", young and vigorous.
(Note: "Golden Helmet" is a flight skills competition award set up by the Chinese Air Force, and 10 winning pilots are awarded the title of "Golden Helmet" every year)
Perform tasks at once.
Directly meet the provocation of foreign stealth fighters.
On the return home, the engine stalled, and in conditions of almost complete loss of control, an emergency landing ...
As a result, he was bold and turned the danger into a disaster.
At a glance, he was hit by Captain Zhang Ting (played by Hu Jun), who came to pick out the seedlings.
Choose him as a test pilot.
Zhang Ting is the captain of a test flight team at a base in the west.
People are rough and have a big voice.
Educate team members who have lost valuable flight data.
Who TM is not raised by his father's mother, which is not expensive
But you're a military man
Stern but loving.
Calling the team members to eat at home, introducing their daughter-in-law to everyone, and saying:
Seriously introduce Comrade Jiang Yuzhen
Your sister-in-law, my hardcore wingman
(Please find out the inappropriate wording yourself)
Business ability, no one is convinced.
On a doomsday sandstorm, he crossed the yellow sand and landed steadily.
The new chief test pilot is the right choice.
Lei Yu was not impressed by his invitation at first.
The reason is simple:
On the front line, it is enough to enjoy.
But for this kind of young man who loves to emerge, Zhang Ting opened a condition to easily grasp:
You've had close encounters with stealth fighters
But we haven't seen it yet
Come and test fly and you have a chance
The latest and most mysterious domestic stealth fighter, Lei Yu, a hot-blooded young man, is impossible to refuse.
But as soon as he came, he brought the smell of gunpowder:
Deng Fang (played by Yu Shi), who has won the "golden helmet" three times, was originally confident about the qualifications of test pilots.
But most recently, he lost to Lei Yu.
Can this be taken orally?
When "Yu Liang" met, it was a saber rattling.
There are also Gao Yingjun (played by Bu Yu), Tong Dan (played by Wang Zichen), Xia Pengfei (played by Zhai Yujia), Li Xiaohang (played by Lu Xin)...
Because of their outstanding performance, they were selected from all over the world.
All of them are eager to fly all kinds of planes in the base.
So, what is a test pilot?
Pilots who specialize in aircraft flight test missions.
Vernacular version:
Fly the plane into extreme cases and bring its performance test results back to the ground to find design loopholes.
Take the risk yourself.
With real experience and data, tell comrades on the front line:
Don't be afraid, this plane, we have tried, can carry it.
02
Pay attention to the word.
Extreme.
What is extreme?
Remember our mock exam before the college entrance examination.
The teacher will emphasize it every time.
The more difficult the mock exam, the better the mastery of the questions, and the easier the college entrance examination.
It is not appropriate to compare, that is, to do a difficult college entrance examination paper, and you have to get full marks.
Only, put on the test pilot.
But it's not a matter of a test paper or a pen.
It's about staking your life and taking up your mission.
Push the limits and fly out of the limit data.
You think the plane should fly as gently as possible.
No, they would have to fly out a "Pugachev Cobra Maneuver".
Quickly pull the lever to raise the nose more than 90 degrees.
A short flight state with the tail in front and the nose in the back is briefly formed.
Ensure that the aircraft remains maneuverable after exceeding the stall angle of attack.
In war movies.
We watched the pilots drop bombs well.
The test pilots had to consider whether the air flow formed in the empty bomb bay instantly after the bomb was dropped would cause fatal damage.
And bad weather, flocks of birds...
Each time, it was a frantic temptation on the verge of danger.
But this is not the most terrible.
Because, after the dangerous situation, the plane is likely to break!
The car is on the road
If it is broken, it can be repaired
The plane is in the sky
What to do if it's broken
When watching movies, you will often hear the words "engine failure" and "twin engine failure".
There are also air stops, stall tailspins, loss of control, flameouts ...
But you think this is already a top danger?
Think well.
This is just the beginning...
Watching them fight this "battle without gunsmoke" is like riding a roller coaster.
Just watching it across the screen made Sir break out in a cold sweat.
But bold, careful, stress-resistant, professional, not enough.
They also have to be "flying engineers."
The data brought back is not handed over to the ground researchers.
They will also propose improvements and participate in the design of new machines.
Skillful flying technology, excellent knowledge reserve, rich experience, intelligent brain, strong physique, strong sense of responsibility.
In every item, it has to be a perfect score.
Because if you are wrong, your life may hang in the balance.
However, test pilots, the heroes behind this group of high-precision fighters.
But it is a group that rarely stands in the spotlight.
This time, in the lens of director Liu Xiaoshi.
The slender body cuts a beautiful arc.
Between the blue sea and blue sky, compete with the wind.
Speed up and climb, like a variation.
Breaking through the clouds, tossing and turning, it is a symphony of speed and passion.
The camera zooms in.
The mask covers the youthful face.
But he couldn't hide his tense expression.
Vigorous, rapid breathing.
Scarlet eyes.
That dense "hit the mountain, hit the mountain" reminder.
Whoever listens and does not pinch a sweat?
Sir's favorite thing to see is the hardcore beauty of the test pilots fighting the long sky.
There are also their daily assessments, training.
Answer questions in a high-speed rotating instrument.
Various physical training.
In the fresh shots, it is a combination of precision and power at the limit.
Day after day of training leaves tough, toned lines.
Off camera.
In the trailer and footage of the film.
Sir is even more moved by the real protagonist of the story.
In June 1997, test pilot Li Zhonghua challenged the world's top pilots, the "Pugachev Cobra Maneuver".
Succeed.
In 1998, the J-10, the first third-generation fighter independently developed by mainland China, made its first flight.
Chief test pilot Lei Qiang said to Song Wenqing, the chief designer of the aircraft.
As long as the plane is not in the air it explodes
As long as the aircraft can control it
I'll definitely figure it out for you
Drop the plane at you onto the runway
I'll let you know what we've gone wrong with for more than a decade
"Test flight hero" Huang Bingxin.
In his 36-year career, he has encountered 30 major dangers.
But not once did he "skydive to survive".
Each time, the plane was safely "saved".
When the plane comes out of the blueprint.
They were the first to fly the steel behemoth into the blue sky.
Behind the development of Continental Airlines.
It is inseparable from the feats of this group of "extreme challengers" to defeat death again and again.
03
How the protagonists grow up in the glory, Sir is not a spoiler.
A few more details that make Sir unforgettable.
A pocket watch.
This is Zhang Ting's baby, take it with you wherever you go.
Table, which means precise.
For test pilots, it's a profession.
Every time he performs a mission, it is his talisman-like existence.
Guide him and make accurate judgments.
The first time this watch appeared, it was when he went to the base where Lei Yu was to pick people.
Pinch the meter, this confident youth.
How to survive when the engine is turned off.
Table, also means will.
If you want to fly out of the limit data, it depends on carrying it for a few seconds at the most dangerous time.
But this piece is not just a metal object.
It is a relic of Zhang Ting's old comrades-in-arms.
Pause in the life of an old friend.
He continued his mission in Zhang Ting's life.
And the replacement of generations of test pilots is not a process of mission continuation.
A tombstone.
Grave means death, cost.
In the desolate western landscape.
The monument rises like a blade.
It silently records the blood and tears of Continental Airlines' business from scratch.
When Zhang Ting led the test flight team to sweep the tomb, the close-up view of the tombstone in the shot.
It's a name that needs to be remembered, a photo.
Later, in the panoramic view of the overlook.
We only saw a solemn, solemn and simple martyr's cemetery.
This one is near and one far, one narrow and one wide.
It is the enduring oath of the test pilots.
If the pocket watch is for the individual, "the burden of test flight will not change because of retreat, it will always have someone stand up and carry it." As a test pilot, you can't give up. ”
This cemetery is for the collective, and it is a price for each new generation of test pilots, all in a more scientific, safe and efficient way.
Take on new challenges with new aircraft.
And a letter.
Perhaps every test pilot will prepare a suicide note to their loved ones early.
This is not a determination to die.
And it is precisely to remember the blazing and embrace life.
Test pilots never just represent themselves.
Behind him are the concerned family.
Zhang Ting's son is in the classroom corridor every day, hoping for his father's safe return.
And Lei Yu can only say to his parents who expect him to live in peace:
The son is not filial
I'm sorry
"The King of the Long Sky", celebrating their bravery.
But they did not shy away from their vulnerability.
Not to mention the heaviness of the cost.
We see their fear and panic.
A brave young man who once dared to make an emergency landing in an instant of more than ten seconds.
They also panic in the face of a crisis they have never seen before.
Also see the ordinary flesh beneath the surface of their god of war.
Although wrapped in a body of steel.
It can encounter a flock of birds in the sky, and it can still destroy people in an instant.
In the face of unknown nature, humans must be in awe.
Also see them outside of high-intensity work.
In amateur life, the budding of youth.
In fact, as early as 1981, the mainland made a test pilot-themed movie "Spiral".
At that time, there were no high-definition scenes and cool special effects.
In the shot, the rudimentary J-7 and air-to-air missiles.
At the time, it was exciting enough.
The audience at that time may be unimaginable.
After that, on March 23, 1998, the J-10 made its first successful flight.
On January 11, 2011, the J-20 made its first successful flight.
Now, the story of the test pilot can be presented on the big screen in this way.
Extend to the dimension of history.
The process of aviation development is also the process of our independence and self-improvement.
Feng Ru from the late Qing Dynasty built the first aircraft on the mainland, but he was not able to rewrite the national fortune by relying on it.
Later, the whole country struggled to survive in the midst of the great powers.
Then in the poor and white, generations of people go forward and follow.
And to today.
This "King of the Long Sky" is by no means boasting.
This 127-minute story is a solemn tribute to generations of air warriors, and it is also the most burning presentation.
Your efforts will not be forgotten.
Their feats will be engraved in the sky for a long time.
