Rebirth in America

Chapter 357 War and Heroes

This "Red Alert" is different from what everyone expected.

Overall, it is divided into three parts. The first part tells about the protagonist's beautiful memories of his hometown on the battlefield in Vietnam. Although this part takes up the least space, it is also the most heartwarming and touching part of the film.

Especially the childhood memories of the three brothers and sisters, the happy memories in the small town, etc.

The second part is the final part of the film.

Yes, it is indeed the highlight of this movie. Watching the invasion of the Soviet Red Army and the Vietnamese Communist Army, and listening to the playing of the "Soviet March" almost made all the audience tremble to death. All kinds of unheard-of new weapons and troops suddenly appeared on the screen, attacking their homeland.

Almost all the audiences who walked into the cinema came here for this reason. They wanted to see the power of the Red Army and how it invaded American soil. Americans were constantly worried about Soviet invasion and Vietnamese retaliation. This is an unknown fear, a fear that has not yet been realized.

It's like people are afraid of ghosts in reality and have never seen ghosts, but that doesn't stop them from wanting to see ghosts in movies.

The effect shown in this part of the movie is indeed beyond people's imagination.

Just to see this part is worth going to the cinema to watch the movie. However, after the massacre, a hellish war scene unfolded. Just like what happened in Vietnam at this time, it was cruel and bloody.

Hope is lost bit by bit, there may be some ups and downs in the middle, but the overall trend is downward. People cannot see the possibility of victory for the protagonist, nor the hope of survival. In the end, will the United States still be conquered by the Soviet Union and Vietnam?

With this thought in mind, people watched until the end.

Hope finally arrived. But the protagonist must exchange his life, otherwise there will be no hope for the United States. In the end, the protagonist risked his life and fought for hope for others. And he himself became a legendary hero. And because of this, he slept for ten years before waking up.

Most people are satisfied with this ending. Such a sunny and happy ending can be considered to be in line with the mainstream view. Although they were tortured miserably by Alex before this, they were finally treated.

Only Anderson was attracted by the last paragraph. Because the word "hero" is mentioned in it, and in the "Red Alert" game he is developing, there is a special type of unit, which is also called "hero".

"Will the protagonist in this movie eventually grow into a hero in the game?"

The more Anderson thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and he almost wanted to tell the people around him loudly about his guess and what he was doing now. The job of developing a Red Alert game is not easy. It can even be said to be very hard, at least more tiring than when he used to develop software systems, but his heart is full of joy.

Seeing how popular the movie was, he was increasingly looking forward to what the game would be like when it was released. Whether Blizzard can be an instant hit depends on the charm of their "Red Alert" game.

After returning to his residence, Anderson was still excited. He turned around and couldn't sleep, and finally got up to surf the Internet. Today, when Internet technology has just started, it is a very cool thing to have a personal computer that can access the Internet.

This is also what Anderson likes to do. After work, he will look for information online or chat with others.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered the chat room, I saw a lot of information about the "Red Alert" movie. Everyone has different opinions about this movie. Some people think that this movie is so well made that no other movie can surpass it. Some people think that except for the beginning and the middle, the rest of this movie is very ugly.

"Why do you have to film it like this? Wouldn't it be better if you could film the U.S. Army team quickly beating out the enemy?"

Many people agree with this statement. Many people think that Alex's film pursues the literary youth too much and should be made more enjoyable instead of creating a tragic atmosphere of sacrificing oneself to benefit everyone.

However, some people like this film and think that it is more real because of the second half. They said: "No one dares to say that he will definitely win a war. Even a strong person may lose. Once lost, the situation described in the film will definitely happen, and it will only be worse. It will not happen." better!"

There were different opinions, and no one could convince the other party, so the quarrel continued. When Anderson carefully typed a sentence on the keyboard, he immediately changed the topic in another direction.

Anderson said in the chat room: "I don't want to say more about the movie. I just want to talk about the game of "Red Alert". According to the plan, there should be a game of the same name launched after the movie is released. I got The internal news is that this game is already undergoing final testing, and it is estimated that everyone will see it soon!"

This news was like a bomb, sending everyone in the chat room into a frenzy. Countless people have pressed Anderson to find out more.

"Game? Game of the same name? Is this real?"

"Oh my gosh, if there was such a game, I would definitely buy it and play it!"

"It sounds very exciting. I will use the US military to beat the Soviets and Vietnamese to death!"

"Brother, where did you get the news? I have heard similar news, but my friend said it is still in closed beta!"

"Tch, I've known about the game for a long time, and I've even played it!"

"Yeah, that's an amazing game, you'll be addicted after playing it!"

Anderson was stunned in front of the computer. He didn't expect that his one word would make the entire chat room excited. Anderson could only ignore the requests from many people to send him private messages, then close the web page, turn off the computer and go to sleep.

"We need to speed up game testing tomorrow so that the game can be released as soon as possible!"

Anderson thought like this in his mind, and finally fell into a deep sleep. In his dream, he seemed to be transformed into a guerrilla. At first, he fought against the Soviet army in the woods, and gradually his rank became higher and higher, and finally he commanded countless armies. After crushing the Soviet Red Army, he suddenly realized that this was a game and his life was just someone else's game!

"No! Don't! It's not true!"

At this time, Anderson woke up from his dream and found that it was still just 5:30 in the morning, so he continued to sleep. The dream he had this time was about how after the game was released and sold well, Blizzard would become bigger and bigger and make more and more money, which made him so happy that he died laughing.

After the film was released, various opinions on "Red Alert" emerged from the media, audiences, and film critics. Some praised, some cursed, and some sighed. No matter what views you hold, you cannot ignore the achievements of this film in all aspects, especially the fact that it not only broke the box office record, but also had a great impact on society.

Among them, the British "Times" said: "A good war movie must be anti-war! Alex's new film seems to be telling a story between the invaded and the invader, but the protagonist His identity is revealed in the opening clip. He is also an invader! An invader of the Vietnamese people!"

"The Observer" said in its newspaper: "Alex once again surprised everyone. Everyone thought he was filming a subconscious film reflecting Americans' fear of the Soviet Union, but it turned out to be a film about the Soviet Union. A movie that reflects reality. We have to think deeply about whether war is just. For invaders, what should we do to belong to the just side? I guess the movie has given us the answer, that is, do not become an invader. It’s just!”

However, some people have different opinions on the content of the film. They think that Alex's film is too inappropriate and the denial of the Vietnam War is too one-sided. Some even think that Alex's butt is crooked. .

"The New York Times" said in the newspaper: "In the film, the protagonist questioned Captain Li, saying that he was so inhumane that he caused so much harm to Americans. Captain Li replied, you did the same thing in Vietnam! The same goes for a good sentence, is our war regarded as unjust by Alex? This makes the American soldiers who sacrificed in Vietnam feel so embarrassed!"

The "Chicago Times" also said in the newspaper: "Alex's behavior at this time, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net, is not like an American, but more like a Vietnamese! To deny the Vietnam War is to deny one's own position. Remember where you stand!"

However, some people think that this movie is indeed well made. It is not Alex's position that is wrong, but other people's positions.

"Speaking of stance, if everyone stood on the standpoint of people on Earth, wouldn't it make the world a better place? If someone says that Alex's stance is wrong, then I hope more people take such a wrong stance. Because their presence will make this earth a better place!”

On TV festival programs, there is a constant debate on the views reflected in this film, with both pros and cons. At this time, the hippies were also opposed to the Vietnam War. Many people believed that the war was meaningless and unnecessary. They called for an end to the war and for American soldiers to return home alive instead of dying thousands of miles away in Vietnam.

Alex did not join in the debate. Because he knows that he can express his opinions, but he cannot join in the fight. His every move will have a great impact on this country and the world. Some people have already asked him through various channels whether he wants to end the Vietnam War.
