The All-China Federation of Trade Unions, the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League, the All-China Women's Federation, the China Disabled Persons' Federation, and the China Association on Aging jointly issued the "Proposal for Filial Piety and Love for the Elderly" to the society. This "Respect for the Elderly Month" publicity activities are different from the past, in the final link of the activity, as the country's first population aging national conditions education film "Everything like you" was invited to be screened, Qin Yi, Yu Lan, Yu Yang and other old artists' wonderful interpretations caused tears and received warm applause.
It is reported that since the release of the public welfare film "Everything Like You" on September 12, the word-of-mouth response has been strong, and the word-of-mouth praise rate has once been as high as 87%, which is a rare small-cost high-reputation public welfare film in recent years. On Weibo, it triggered a discussion among netizens and audiences, the topic reading and discussion exceeded 300 million times, setting off a wave of filial piety and love in the Chongyang Festival, the film was initiated by four young directors, with the famous artist Huang Hong as the general director, the film showed 10 kinds of sunset life through 10 stories.
The lineup of 16 well-known old artists and 16 young and middle-aged powerful actors makes this film extremely valuable, and the empathy of the core content builds a bridge of understanding between young and old people, so that this film has a high educational significance, according to relevant data analysis, China has entered the stage of population aging, but as Milan Kundera said: "The elderly are also children who know nothing about the elderly." "The problem of population aging will become the basic national condition throughout the 21st century, and only when the country, families and individuals have to take action can we promote the development of the cause of aging in the new era to a new level." As China's first national education film on the aging of the population, this film is of great significance, and I believe it will become an important part of China's film history.
At the launching ceremony, the film's actors and elderly representatives, veteran artists Li Mingqi and Lei Kesheng also came to the scene and recited the poem "We Are Still Young" created by Huang Hong, and the strong and powerful voices of the two elderly people ignited the audience attending the event, "We are young, China is young, everything is like you, in the same vein." Your spirit runs in my veins, and I carry your mission on my shoulders. As a glorious old Chinese man, we will always be the sons and daughters of the motherland, and we will always walk with the motherland. "Let us appreciate the glory and pride of being an old Chinese man." Since ancient China, filial piety and filial piety have been the moral foundation of this nation for thousands of years. Let us start by paying attention to the elderly around us, and may the love of the world be like you.
