"Just now after sweeping the martyrs' tombs, I saw many revolutionary martyrs lying quietly in the Longhua Martyrs' Cemetery. A hundred years ago, they were all young students like you, rushing to the forefront of patriotism. I would like to tell the students the story of The two brothers, Chen Yannian and Chen Qiaonian. Long Pingping said.

After going to France for work-study, Chen Yannian and Chen Qiaonian chose the ideal of communism, joined the Communist Party of China, and later grew up to become the early leaders of the Communist Party of China. Sadly, the two martyrs were unfortunately arrested and heroically sacrificed. At the time of his death, Chen Yannian was only 29 years old and Chen Qiao was only 26 years old.

Long Pingping specifically mentioned a set of classic shots from The Age of Awakening. On the screen, Chen Duxiu sent his two sons, Chen Yannian and Chen Qiaonian, to France for work-study, and the two sunshine teenagers were embracing a new life with great expectations. At this time, the camera flashed and turned to Long Hua, which was the picture of two heroes wearing shackles, stepping on blood, and singing the "Internationale" to the execution ground. "I've watched this scene at least 20 times, and every time I watch it, I can't help but cry." Long Pingping said emotionally.
