Great America China

I happened to be watching Bai Yansong's "Bai Shuo" during this time, and I was particularly impressed by a section in it.

"Is there no Propaganda Department in the United States?"
"No"
"Really not? What does Hollywood do?" After

thinking about it carefully, it is true that there are aliens invaded, and there are American heroes. When disaster strikes, you will see the Stars and Stripes flying forever. It doesn't tell you anything, it just keeps letting you identify.

Jackie Chan movies are either stories of little people, or direct manifestations of patriotism in "Myths" and "Zodiacs" about the occupation of other people's cultural relics. However, the usual fighting in "Escape from the Jedi", the story is no longer heavy, maybe there are some simple and boring.
However, Jackie Chan's film moves to another level. It is no longer just his own patriotism, but he looks at this beautiful China from an objective perspective.

Needless to say, Mongolia's heroism and magnificence, it is the same in Inner Mongolia. The flying sky lanterns, the quaint wind and rain bridges and mountain villages, long banquets, antiphonal girls, terraces, sheepskin rafts, and zip lines across the river are the most beautiful places in this country. Even if it's not so beautiful, the magnificent plastic bottles, the tourists who take photos wildly, and the stalks of the circle of friends at every turn are the marks of this country.

The one I particularly like and the funniest is the antithetical song
"This is tradition!"
For a long period of time, there has been a lot of loss of traditional culture. There is no cultural foundation and no belief support. Everything is so utilitarian, without rules and bottom lines. . Who cares about the "tradition that only sings can pass", a group of big men, a pistol, and a group of girls are not easy. However, regardless of whether it is a matter of life or death, or wickedness, there should be a respect for tradition inscribed in the blood.

Whether it’s Adale’s "Rolling in the deep", Jackie Chan’s "Clearly Know My Heart" or the Divine Comedy "Little Apple", sung by people who seem to have nothing to do with these music, they show a different kind of warmth in the funny. .
Music never knows borders!

    The eldest brother is 62 and still struggles like this, can only ignore the aging of the action style. Right should keep the time-honored brand, someone will like this one. It's just that these third-rate Hollywood directors and screenwriters went to China to make various fools. The story was completely unreadable, and all kinds of political inaccuracies and racial discrimination were added unscrupulously, and their brains were flooded...

    5 points, Alpaca control Jackie Chan finally DUANG himself, wearing Mongolian clothes to sing ROLLING IN THE DEEP and the villain singing Little Apple are very abrupt, Suning Tesco has been implanted in minority homes, the whole film almost became a sightseeing film
