The video is adapted from the real diplomats' evacuation incident. It tells the story of war breaking out in the Numian Republic. The diplomat Zong Dawei and the new member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Cheng Lang were ordered to go to assist in the evacuation of overseas Chinese in . The mission was successfully completed, but learned that there were still a group of trapped compatriots. In desperation, the two gave up the opportunity to go home and entered the war zone against the flow, leading their compatriots out of a way home. The plot of the film was ups and downs and was wonderful.
Diplomatic personnel are in a foreign country, evading the risks of war and looking for citizens. After finding these more than 120 people, they have to lead them to travel more than 200 miles before they can take them home. Such a story that has experienced hardships and dangers has really happened in Libya . In the dark night, diplomats organized citizens to pull each other's clothes forward. After walking a long distance, someone suddenly shouted in front, "Is it Chinese?" The national staff were already preparing to respond in the local area. You can imagine how excited the expatriates were at that time. They saw the five-star red flag of China in a foreign land and heard the kind local accent. Therefore, the plot of "The Road Back" is more worthy of careful savoring and bringing in, because the movie truly reproduces many situations that have happened in reality.
At the moment when the tension in the domestic situation in Numia escalates and the evacuation of overseas Chinese is urgent, when Zong Dawei, the first-class secretary of the Consular Protection Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, played by Zhang Yi, , went to various local departments for help to evacuate overseas Chinese, the reply they received was "going out". These blunt "going out" makes people feel the complexity of diplomatic work. Due to the tense situation, many ruling departments are in a state of high tension, and their life and death are in an unknown state, so how can they have time to care about the lives and death of foreigners? At this time, it is difficult for diplomats to find suitable and formal ways to assist the Chinese people in their return. "The Road to Return" is in such a chaotic moment. Diplomats in foreign lands should try their best to overcome all difficulties and lead everyone back to their country and find ways to save the lives of wanderers abroad. ”
After receiving the task of evacuating overseas Chinese, the title of "The Road to Return" points out the distance of thousands of miles. For those who are wandering in a foreign land, going home is a very ritual and worth looking forward to. Once you encounter danger, there are many things to pay attention to. Wang Jian mentioned a detail of the film: "The movie says that when you encounter danger, you must protect your face. When we are overseas, this face is an important pass. If we are shot or hit by a butt stock, few people can recognize it without recognizing it, which will cause many difficulties in all subsequent work. Therefore, when you are in danger in a foreign land, people will think of the most authentic and critical details. At this point, the movie gave me a deep feeling. "
The movie released several trailers, one of which touched many people. At the shooting site, an Syrian extra suddenly collapsed and cried during the performance, because the filming made him feel very touched. Such a situation was really happening in their country at this time. Many people live in a peaceful environment like China. It is hard to imagine that when Chinese overseas Chinese encounter danger, their lives are really hanging on the line. The scenes of war and smoke in the movie are worthy of the audience's careful experience.
The works of Rao Xiaozhi have always paid great attention to the portrayal of people, and this time is no exception. The diplomats in the film are also ordinary people with flesh and blood, and they also show fragility when facing danger. The film truly reproduces the local scene. Through the close-up of Zhang Yi's shots in the face of dangerous situations, it can be seen that he is also worried and panic. Born as a human being, facing the black gun, no one can guarantee that he is not afraid. Diplomats are also flesh and blood people, and behind them are partners, children, parents and families who love themselves deeply, but their other identity is diplomats. In times of crisis, they are responsible for the lives of the expatriates.Therefore, the audience can feel his pain and fear through the expression of the camera language, while seeing his potential calmness and persistence in his duties.
In the movie, the evacuation team not only has external dangers, but also internal conflicts and conflicts. In the trailer, there were several quarrels between Zhang Yi and the character played by Wang Junkai . In the eyes of many people, diplomats are very disciplined. Everyone thinks in the same direction and works in the same direction. But what happens between them is a conflict of contradictions and conflicts that are irrelevant to principles, but about how to make, how to resolve, and which choice is better. This just reflects the actual situation in danger. These real restorations in "The Road to Return" can be said to have increased the value of the entire movie, and can make the audience truly appreciate the various difficulties faced by the moment of evacuation of the overseas Chinese.
"The motherland will not give up any compatriots, we will definitely lead everyone home."
This is a line from , the Chinese Ambassador to the Republic of Lumia, played by Li Xuejian, in the film. The Chinese-style evacuation of overseas Chinese is really a promise. In the video, unarmed diplomats frequently take out Chinese passport . Faced with rebels and war, they only have the passports in their hands to represent their identities and build a strong line of defense for the vast number of Chinese citizens. The Chinese government's attitude towards protecting Chinese citizens, the concept of people first, and the people-centered thinking are increasingly deeply reflected in the diplomatic field. At the same time, China has the ability to quickly evacuate overseas Chinese, and at the same time it can be stable and smooth, so that everyone can feel at ease and ensure everyone's life safety and interests. This also shows that China is strong!
