Chapter 1793 (2/2)
At this time, Leonardo's voice over appeared: ”on July 3, 1942, the American Volunteer aviation team was ordered to disband. On the day of disbanding, we were still in the air to fight against the Japanese aggressor's aircraft.”
”After the Flying Tigers disbanded, most of us did not leave China. Instead, we merged into the 23rd US Army Air Force and the 16th Fighter Squadron stationed in China to form the US Air Force special task force in China, which was subordinate to the 10th US Army Air Force. Under the leadership of general Chennault, we continued to fight against the Japanese invaders over China. Sometimes we will also Perform other tasks, such as covering the transport aircraft transporting strategic materials for China and flying over the famous hump route; ”
at this time, the picture shows the real image data of the US air force contingent in China in history. The fighter plane covers the transport aircraft and is flying over the Himalayas. The following is the magnificent and endless snow mountain.
”At the end of 1943, I left Chuncheng with the Chinese contingent and went to Guangxi Province to stay. Before I left, I wanted to find the Chinese girl who had saved me in the past, but the order from my superior was very urgent. I didn't see her until I left Chuncheng.”
In the picture, Du Wei's image appears.
”I thought I would never see her again in my life,” Leonardo said
”In 1945, the Chinese people's war against the Japanese aggressors began to tilt, and we began to bomb Japan's mainland from China and the captured Pacific Islands;”
”on May 8, Germany announced its unconditional surrender, and Japan was the only remaining axis country to resist.”
”On July 26, China, the United States and Britain jointly issued the Potsdam Proclamation, urging Japan to surrender unconditionally.”
”On August 6 and 9, the US military dropped atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, respectively.”
”On August 15, the Japanese emperor declared his unconditional surrender.”
”At the end of the war, the task force was disbanded. The pilots from the United States were divided into two parts. Those who were originally from the air force were transferred to other bases of the United States in Asia. Those who were not originally from the air force, like me, were disbanded on the spot after receiving a considerable bonus.”
”I came to China with general Chennault in 1941. Now it has been four years. In these four years, I haven't left this country. I have a deep friendship for this land.”
”But now, I took off the Flying Tigers' uniform, said goodbye to the fighter that accompanied me to death, got a huge severance payment, and a ticket to leave China for New York.”
In the picture, Leonardo has put on the casual clothes and is packing his bags in his dormitory.
The narrator continued: ”last with me, and Jenny Smith, a nurse also from the United States.”
Next, the screen switches to Anne Hathaway, who finally takes off her nurse's clothes and puts on a floral dress, while packing her own luggage.
In the picture, she carefully clipped a photo in her diary. The photo was taken when Liu Ye joined the army.
”It's obvious that Jenny hasn't forgotten Li zheshin in four years. In fact, I haven't forgotten him in those four years,” said Leonardo”Oh, by the way, there's another person I can't forget in four years...”
Narrator said that Leonardo was holding a picture of Dewey's head.
At this moment, Leonardo suddenly stood up and rushed out of the dormitory with his luggage.
The American pilot, who was also packing, asked him, ”Dean, where are you going?”
Leonardo looked back and said with a smile, ”I'm going to Chuncheng!”
Next act. Leonardo has been carrying luggage, appeared in the original Duwei's village.
However, the mountain village in front of us has been almost razed to the ground. Some villagers are trying to rebuild their homes in the ruins. At first sight, they are suffering from the fierce war.
When she came to Duwei's house, it was a broken wall. Leonardo burst into tears. He felt that Duwei must have died in the war.
He cried for a long time on the ground. When he was ready to leave, he found that Dewey was standing behind him, looking at him with tears.
At this moment, Leonardo was almost ecstatic. He left his luggage, rushed to Dewey and held her in his arms. He repeatedly said in her ear that I love you. For four years, I have been thinking about your confession.
Du Wei was held by him, tears rolled down, and repeatedly said that her parents were killed by the Japanese, leaving only one person at home.
Leonardo suddenly held her shoulder and said in Chinese: ”come with me! follow me! OK or not? Come with me! ”
Dewey froze for a moment and nodded heavily.
Leonardo smiled with relief and held her in her arms again.
The film gradually darkened.
When it lights up again, the letters show: September 1, 1945.
On the wharf of Shanghai stock market, a giant ship is preparing to set sail.
On the deck, several pilots of the Flying Tigers looked at the front of them, which was the Chinese land they once fought for, and they were about to embark on the journey back home, leaving the country that had been fighting for several years.
Anne Hathaway, dressed in casual clothes, was also standing on the deck. She took a picture of Liu Ye out of her pocket, looked at her eyes and wept again.
Next to her was Leonardo, with red eyes.
Standing next to Leonardo is Dewey, who lost his family in the war.
The whistle of the passenger ship sounded, the chimney emitted black smoke, the propeller turned, and the giant ship slowly drove away from the wharf.
At this time, Dewey gently leans her head on Leonardo's shoulder, while Leonardo holds her waist, and the other hand clasps her fingers.
The lens gradually rises and darkens until it is completely dark.
Then the picture lights up again.
The picture uses modern style filters and colors. In the picture, an American old man and an American old woman, accompanied by an old Chinese woman and several mixed race children, come to a martyr cemetery.
A group of people stood in front of a tombstone. The American old man and the Chinese old lady held each other's fingers and looked at the pictures on the tombstone seriously.
The picture on the tombstone is Liu Ye in his youth.
The single old American lady beside them, trembling but cautious, took out a yellow black-and-white picture from her pocket.
This picture is the same as that of Liu Ye on the tombstone.
In the last scene, there is no dialogue, but combined with the scene that the ship left China just now, the audience can guess that the ten finger old American and Chinese old ladies are the former Leonardo and Dewey, while the mixed elderly and young people are their descendants, which indicates that they have lived a happy life.
And the old lady who always keeps the photos of Liu Ye is Anne Hathaway.
She kept the photos all the time and was a person at this time, which also indicated that because she could not forget Liu Ye, she had been a person all the time and spent her life alone.
Later, the American old lady's wrinkled eyes shed two lines of tears. The tears slowly fell on the old man's wrinkled face and dropped on the tombstone.
At this point, the picture stops, and from color to black and white.
At the end of the play
