w88 casino News Network (provided by the Retired Personnel Office)On the occasion of the 76th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and the 72nd anniversary of the victory in resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, the Party Committee of the Retirement Department organized retired veteran comrades to carry out theme party days and film party class activities on October 10 and 11 respectively. Nearly 200 veteran comrades watched the epic film "Volunteers: Bloody Peace" together.

As the final work of the "Volunteer Army" trilogy, the film takes the "fighting and negotiating" stage from 1951 to 1953 as the main line. It panoramically reproduces the heroic journey of the Volunteer Army soldiers who fought bloody battles, refused to give in an inch of ground, and finally brought the enemy to the negotiating table and won peace. There were 158 conferences, 733 small meetings, and 747 days of arduous negotiations. The battles of Shangganling and Jincheng were filled with artillery fire, and the front lines and rear lines were intertwined. They vividly interpreted the profound theme of "peace is hard-won, and victory must be defended."

During the two-and-a-half-hour screening, the veteran comrades were attentive and solemn. Many people shed tears when they saw Huang Jiguang blocking the hole of the gun with his chest and when they saw the remains of the volunteer martyrs returning home. On and off the screen, the spiritual dialogue spanning more than 70 years is shocking. Professor Huang Zhenhua, an 84-year-old party member, said: "Out of the theater, the famous saying 'The days when Western invaders could occupy a country by just setting up a few cannons on the eastern coast for hundreds of years are gone forever' still echo in my ears. Today, more than 70 years later, when the international situation is undercurrent in the game of unilateralism and multilateral cooperation, when challenges in fields such as technological competition and geopolitics are coming one after another, The spiritual power shown in the film has become more and more practical. Although we are no longer facing a hail of bullets, the patriotism of our ancestors who "put the interests of the motherland and the people above all else" and the optimism of "not fearing hardships and hardships" are still the confidence to cope with risks and challenges. Today, we inherit the great spirit of resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, which is to build a solid foundation for development with a posture of self-reliance and to respond to changes in circumstances."

This event is not only a profound patriotism education, but also a concrete action to express high respect for the veteran comrades who have made contributions to the Republic. Peace is not only engraved in history, but also needs to be defended with iron will; spirit is not only continued in the blood, but will also be written into the journey of Chinese modernization.(Written by: Li Shan Reviewed by: Lei Liang)
