-Comment on the ideological and artistic quality of the digital film I Want to Fly.

As a tribute to the 60th anniversary of New China and the 60th anniversary of the People's Air Force, the digital film "I Want to Fly" jointly produced by the Film Channel of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and the Beijing Military Region Air Force recently met with the audience. This is the first feature film describing the growth of flight cadets in New China, and it is also a youth inspirational film reflecting the contemporary soldiers' practice of core values.

Publicize youth's personality, and show contemporary youth's thinking and pursuit of life value. Every teenager has his own dreams and pursuits, and the vast sky is undoubtedly the biggest, most romantic and most suitable place to show his personality. I want to fly properly shows the strong desire of contemporary youth to pursue and express themselves. The protagonists in the play are all "post-80s and post-90s" young people (such as Taoist ornaments), and the advantages, hobbies, characteristics and even shortcomings of contemporary young people are reflected in them. Although President Zhou Zhenchuan (played by Xie Gang) has few plays, he clearly embodies the high sense of responsibility of senior and middle-level cadres in the army and carefully cultivates a new generation of soldiers. There is no empty preaching and abstract truth in the play, but people realize through persuasion that the glory of youth lies not in earth-shattering flowers everywhere, but in healthy growth, in raising their heads and looking up at the vast sky to realize the transformation from "self" to "self". The theme song "I Want to Fly" also uses anthropomorphic writing: "The eagle is born to fly high, with the purpose of soaring in the sky …" After watching the movie, people naturally feel that there is no profound theory in the whole play, but it embodies the achievements of studying and practicing Scientific Outlook on Development everywhere; There is no smoke of live ammunition, but everything reflects the requirements of information war for talent training; These young people bathed in the spring breeze of reform and opening up and met good leaders. This kind of ideological connotation and expression will undoubtedly inspire contemporary young people, experienced people and educators.

Advocating heroes and honors depicts the spiritual identity of young soldiers to the core values of contemporary revolutionary soldiers. In recent film and television dramas, the heroic image of the older generation of our army has been fully demonstrated and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Society is also used to looking at today's soldiers with yesterday's eyes and paying attention to the attitude of contemporary soldiers to inherit heroes and the current situation. For this, the drama "I" seriously responded and answered satisfactorily. Yang Liwei, a "space hero", played himself in the play and returned to his alma mater to give a speech to encourage young flight students. Such a small scene not only caused a sensation among the participating officers and soldiers, but also caused a wave in the capital media. Inviting Yang Liwei to appear in the camera is by no means a show for the sake of "me", but it truly reflects the worship of heroes and idols by young soldiers, especially flight students, and the honor of soldiers. This is necessary to show the core values and martial spirit of contemporary revolutionary soldiers. As long as you are a soldier, you will feel authentic and excited. It is worth recalling the words of Zhou Zhenchuan, the principal of the play: "Children need to grow up, and we also need to grow up-the growth of the mind! Growth is sometimes more important than success. " "The most important thing is not to learn to fly a plane, but to learn to control your heart." Especially the last sentence, can be said to be the "drama eye" of the whole drama. It played a role in making the finishing point. In fact, being a hero is not mysterious. In the final analysis, it is a person who can control his own thoughts. Because for those who have the will, how high the heart flies, how far the road can go. The pilot in the play is young and handsome, more sunny after the experience, more cherish friendship, and also show the mainstream of contemporary youth.

Dare to explore and innovate, look at the life of pilots from a new perspective, and show the tide of new military changes. It is almost the knowledge of insiders that military film and television is "difficult to be an air force theme, but even more difficult to be a pilot theme". This has also led to few breakthroughs in this kind of works in recent years. Pilots are the main body of the air force's combat effectiveness. How to "see the big from the small" and reflect the transformation of air force construction with the growth of flight students is the key and difficult point in the creation of Me. The drama "I" reflects the four-year study, training and life of flight students, with a long time span and rich content. Thousands of officers and men and a large number of active aircraft were used in the shooting, especially a large number of on-site aerial photographs, which are rare in recent years. The main creative personnel are not soldiers, so it is an attempt and exploration to give full play to their advantages to do military subjects. Zhou Wei is a famous young director who has won many awards in recent years. Through talking with senior military leaders, leading cadres and officers and men, he got to know the military camp, made clear the direction, explored the life of flight students with keen eyes, and positioned it as something for young people to see and like. The script has been revised for more than a dozen drafts, and the opinions of officers and men have to be understood at the shooting scene, and it has to be revised and improved word by word. Therefore, the whole drama is very close to reality in characters, scenes, emotions, language and other aspects, which embodies the characteristics of the times and the pursuit of the future. The directors carefully scrutinized and edited a large number of materials, making the picture clear and vivid, the atmosphere simple, giving people a beautiful feeling and appreciation, and realizing the unity of art and effect. So that some experts watched the film, while admiring it, they also regretted that such colorful pictures and precious and rare shots could completely become a "big production" of a film.
