Two days after its release, the box office of "King of the Long Sky" has exceeded 200 million.
There is no doubt that this film about our Air Force test pilot is the hottest movie in the entire May 1st show. In addition to the brilliant high-burning fighter shots and plump characters, I found five small details in "King of the Long Sky" that you may not notice.
These five details not only highlight the seriousness of the main creator, but also make the characters in the film such as Lei Yu, Zhang Ting and Chief Engineer Wei more delicate.
Detail 1, small braids
The first time the pigtail appeared was when Chief Engineer Wei was giving lessons to the test pilots.
He had a sky-piercing pigtail on his head, which looked very funny, but Chief Engineer Wei didn't think so, and it wasn't until Lei Yu asked him that he answered the meaning of this pigtail.
It turned out that when making a bet with Zhang Dabei, Chief Engineer Wei lost the bet and was caught with "pigtails", which was a punishment to remind them to constantly "find faults" and "pigtails" for the plane, in order to ensure that the front-line soldiers could soar safely in the sky.
But the origin of the pigtail did not start with Chief Engineer Wei, but from the Zhang team.
Zhang Ting and his original captain Lu Brigade urged their progress in this way, and later Lu Brigade died, and this tradition was preserved.
At the end of the film, Lei Yu also tied a pigtail on his head and came to Zhang Ting's tomb, indicating that this habit has been passed down and will definitely be passed down from generation to generation.
The little braid, which was a joke at the beginning, turned into a sublime aviation spirit later, is touching.
Detail 2: Shoe shine
In the film, Lei Yu and Deng Fang are competitors and best teammates.
There is a detail in the movie that Deng Fang has been constantly wiping his leather shoes, and this action is actually allusive.
Audiences familiar with "Bright Sword" should know that Li Yunlong mentioned in the play that the leather shoes can be seen in the figure, which is the style of the Frunze Military Academy.
Deng Fang's family is a military family, so he also inherited this tradition, which represents Deng Fang's rigorous style and family style.
Later, when Lei Yu was injured in the test, Deng put Lei Yu in front of the hospital bed to shine his shoes, which already represented Deng Fang's recognition of Lei Yu and also represented that the two brothers were officially reconciled.
Detail three, red rope
The intention of the red rope appears in many places in the film.
When Chief Engineer Wei gave a lecture, the rope tied with a pigtail was a small red rope.
And when Lei Yu encountered a dangerous parachute dive, Zhang Ting drove the plane back and gave him a blank data card, and there was also a red leather band on it.
After that, in the footage of Lei Yu's appearance, we can all find that this red leather band is tied to his wrist and has not left for a moment.
This red leather band connected Lei Yu, Zhang Ting and Chief Engineer Wei.
On the one hand, the red leather band is an incentive, and Lei Yu uses it as a symbol to motivate himself not to give up easily, and to protect the plane more than his life.
On the other hand, the red leather band is a kind of inheritance, but also a sign of auspicious peace, and it is a blessing for the older generation of astronauts to the new generation of test pilots.
These two are indispensable, and it is also these two that give the red leather band a special meaning.
Details four, three lives
The characters in the film themselves mentioned that the test pilot is a "dancer on the tip of a knife".
And when Lei Yu and Zhang Ting had an accident in the test flight, Lei Yu was dragged by a parachute, hit a rusty channel steel, and pierced his shoulder.
Here, in fact, is the embodiment of the "tip of the knife", symbolizing the danger that test pilots may encounter.
After experiencing this accident and losing Zhang Ting, Lei Yu once said that he had seen King Yan and now he had three lives.
This actually echoes Zhang Ting's education of Lei Yu, these three lives refer to mission, life and life.
Saying this sentence also means Lei Yu's real growth and transformation.
Detail five, Shook
In the film, Lei Yu is the No. 82 test pilot, codenamed "Shuke".
Shook's intention is the collective memory of the post-80s and post-90s, and in the cartoon "Shook and Beta", Shook is the little mouse that flies the plane.
With Shuke as a code name, it actually represents Lei Yu's youth and childlike heart, and he often carries a Shuke mouse made of Lego bricks by his side, and this mouse is given many shots in the movie.
This shows that Lei Yu has a boyish spirit.
It also proves from the side that Lei Yu is relatively simple, focusing on the research and flight test work of the aircraft, and almost has no distractions.
The appearance of Shuk also made the characters in the cartoon and "King of the Long Sky" complete the linkage, middle-aged audiences should smile when they see it.
