Recently, David Shen, the producer of the film Musician invited by the film channel Today Film Review, analyzed: Why did the 9th Beijing International Film Festival choose this film as the opening film?

Feelings of home and country have existed in China since ancient times.

Whether it is the concept of self-cultivation in the Book of Rites or the responsibility of "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later" in Yueyang Tower, the feelings of home and country are never limited to words, but linked with the country, which is a sense of mission of caring for the people and taking the world as its own responsibility, and an ideology that transcends the nation.

We should remember Mr. Xian Xinghai's arduous deeds. Home is the smallest country, there are thousands of countries. With a strong country, there will be a rich home. Only by hard work, seeking truth from facts and innovation can we strengthen the country and enrich the people, effectively resist bullying and build the same destiny of mankind!
